Chapter 653 The Soul-Confusing Talisman
"Useless! What use are you to me?!" Su Ning said furiously.
The Gu family's recent rapid development, seemingly on the verge of a leap into dragon's gate, was precisely due to the support of the Su family from the capital. Su Ning had been in secluded cultivation and couldn't deal with the provincial Su family himself, so he intended to use this method to target them.
Su Ning had provided the Gu family with hundreds of billions in funds and a vast network of connections, yet he hadn't expected the Gu family to fail even at this minor task, which greatly disappointed him.
"Young Master Su Ning, it is my incompetence, my incompetence, but what should we do next?" The Gu family head lowered his head, his face filled with shame.
Although he was no longer young, the person on the other end of the phone was from the Su family of the capital.
Su Ning took a breath and said in a deep voice, "Help me do one thing!"
"Young Master Su Ning, you only need to give the word, and I'll do a hundred things for you," the Gu family head said meekly. Currently, the Gu family was on the brink of bankruptcy, and only the Su family could save them.
"Go to the Lei family's clubhouse and rescue two women for me!"
Su Ning's gaze turned cold.
Just moments ago, Su Ning had learned that his fiancée and aunt had been taken to the clubhouse, which ignited his fury!
Unable to break out of his seclusion immediately, he could only rely on the Gu family to handle this matter.
"As you command!"
The Gu family head nodded and asked, "How should we deal with the provincial Su family?"
"Handle it yourself for now. I will be out of seclusion soon," Su Ning said, taking a breath, and hung up the phone.
Provincial Su family villa.
Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi had not yet arrived at the villa, but Jiang Biyun, along with the Su family's servants, were already waiting, gazing into the distance with anticipation.
Just then, a car slowly stopped at the villa entrance. Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi alighted from the car, and a group of people rushed forward, cheering.
"Congratulations, Miss, Master-in-law, on your victorious return!"
It was clear they had already learned about what had transpired.
Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi exchanged a smile and, amidst the crowd's adulation, walked into the living room.
"Yunxi, this is truly wonderful. I heard that many have already placed orders with Su's Pharmaceutical?"
Jiang Biyun waved her hand, signaling the Su family servants to leave, and looked at Su Yunxi with a beaming smile.
Su Yunxi also beamed, saying, "Not only are there orders from neighboring provinces and cities, but some enterprises from other provinces have also placed orders with Su's Pharmaceutical. Roughly estimated, it has exceeded ten billion!"
"Another piece of good news is that the Gu family has suffered a heavy blow and is likely not far from bankruptcy."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Biyun danced with excitement.
Those were orders exceeding ten billion! Even Jiang Biyun, who had seen much of the world, was astonished.
Moreover, the Su family had been betrayed by many and faced bankruptcy before. The drastic change from their previous predicament made Jiang Biyun sigh with admiration and unrestrained joy.
"Yunxi, I heard that the Gu family has someone behind them. Do you know who it is?" Chen Xuan asked, frowning.
Su Yunxi shook her head and said, "The person behind the Gu family is extremely mysterious, and I'm not too clear about it."
Chen Xuan nodded, a thoughtful expression on his face.
Jiang Biyun suddenly stood up, clapped her hands, and laughed, "Master Hu has truly helped our Su family change our fortunes! I must go and thank Master Hu properly! Yunxi, I'm going out for a bit."
After speaking, Jiang Biyun turned to leave, but Su Yunxi stopped her. "Mom, what Master Hu are you talking about? What are you saying?"
Chen Xuan also looked curious.
Jiang Biyun glanced at Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi, smiled slightly, and her eyes shone with admiration as she explained, "It's like this..."
It turned out that not long ago, when the Su family encountered great trouble, Jiang Biyun had consulted her friends about how to resolve the feng shui of the Yu family villa. Her friend Wang Cuicui had then introduced her to a feng shui master.
Yesterday, Jiang Biyun had gone to see the feng shui master. The master had given Jiang Biyun a talisman, saying it could help the Su family overcome their crisis.
Jiang Biyun was skeptical, but she hadn't expected the Su family to successfully overcome their crisis today.
Because of this, Jiang Biyun believed that the feng shui master, Master Hu, had manifested his power, and thus she intended to go and thank him.
"Chen Xuan..."
Although Su Yunxi didn't believe in feng shui, after witnessing Chen Xuan's skills, she had come to believe in it. However, she only trusted Chen Xuan's feng shui, not that of outsiders.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly, signaling Su Yunxi to be quiet. He turned to Jiang Biyun and said, "Aunt, may I see that talisman of yours?"
Jiang Biyun hesitated slightly, then took out the talisman and placed it before Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan stared at the talisman, his pupils suddenly contracting. A hint of coldness flashed across his face, but it quickly returned to normal.
This was no talisman for changing fortunes, but a soul-confusing talisman!
The soul-confusing talisman was a type of evil talisman. If worn for a long time, the person would be controlled by the owner of the talisman, making them go east if told to go east, and west if told to go west. In essence, they would become a mere puppet!
Upon seeing this soul-confusing talisman, Chen Xuan understood. Previously, he had noticed that Jiang Biyun's complexion was dark, as if covered by dark clouds, and this was precisely the effect of the soul-confusing talisman.
"Have you seen enough? Master Hu said that if the spell worked, I should go see him within an hour!"
Jiang Biyun quickly put away the soul-confusing talisman and said impatiently.
"Aunt, I'll go with you," Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"You?"
Jiang Biyun frowned, sizing Chen Xuan up.
"I also know some feng shui and mystic arts, and I want to learn from that Master Hu," Chen Xuan said with a smile.
Chen Xuan could lift the soul-confusing talisman from Jiang Biyun, but he did not intend to alert the snake. If that Master Hu dared to place a soul-confusing talisman on Jiang Biyun, Chen Xuan would not let him off lightly.
"Alright then, wait a moment. I'll change my clothes, and then we can go together."
Jiang Biyun pondered for a moment, then, swaying her hips, headed towards the bedroom upstairs.
"Chen Xuan, what's going on?"
Seeing this, Su Yunxi quickly leaned over.
"Your mother has been placed under a soul-confusing curse..." Chen Xuan said truthfully, and briefly explained the dangers of the soul-confusing curse to Su Yunxi.
"Chen Xuan, what should we do?"
Su Yunxi said urgently.
Su Yunxi had no idea what to do in such matters.
"Yunxi, don't worry, with me here, everything will be fine. However, when cutting weeds, one must remove the roots. I need to go with your mother to meet that Master Hu," Chen Xuan comforted her.
"I'll go with you both."
"No need," Chen Xuan shook his head.
Su Yunxi did not understand feng shui and mystic arts, so her presence would be of no help.
Su Yunxi also understood the importance of the matter, so she said no more.
"Let's go."
Jiang Biyun changed into a rather revealing and sexy outfit, her legs slender. She grabbed her bag and walked down.
One had to admit, despite her age, Jiang Biyun was still alluring, especially after changing into a sexy outfit, which made her particularly attractive.
"Mom, why are you dressed like this?" Su Yunxi was startled by Jiang Biyun's attire.
Jiang Biyun showed no embarrassment and stated righteously, "This is Master Hu's requirement. All women who come to see him must dress sexily. He says this allows for better comprehension of the heavenly dao and shows greater sincerity!"
Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow.
This Master Hu was quite the lecher!
