Chapter 655 Bringing Benefits
"The Su family's fortune has changed. Your Aunt Xiao Yun is here to fulfill her vow, so I'll take them to see Master Hu," Wang Cuicui said.
Liang Tingting was a little surprised by the Su family's changed fortune. She glanced at Jiang Biyun but didn't show it. "Then come with me."
As for Chen Xuan, who was following behind, Liang Tingting didn't say anything, only a hint of malice flashed in her eyes.
That day, Chen Xuan had slapped her son-in-law's face, causing her to lose face. Today, she wanted to get all the lost face back!
Liang Tingting and Wang Cuicui led the way, and the group entered a side hall of the Taoist temple. Incense was burning inside, filling the air with a refreshing and pleasant aroma.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll have someone find Master Hu now."
After speaking to Wang Cuicui, Liang Tingting turned and walked inside.
The others were full of admiration. "Look at how extraordinary their relationship with Master Hu is. I wish I had such a connection. It's so enviable. I heard it's thanks to Liang Tingting's son-in-law!"
"A son-in-law is always better when he belongs to someone else!"
"Biyun, your son-in-law is useless and only knows how to cause trouble. If it were me, I would have kicked him out long ago. You really have a big heart."
However, Jiang Biyun didn't say anything in response.
Chen Xuan's strength was something they had never seen.
Chen Xuan curled his lips. That was a relationship built on favors, not strength.
Besides, he didn't pay any attention to these minor heresies. The only reason he didn't expose them was to avoid alarming the snake and letting this "Master Hu" escape.
"Master Hu said you can all go in!"
At this moment, Wang Cuicui came out from inside and said.
"It's great that I can see Master Hu. This is my first time seeing Master Hu. Even though I've come a few more times and tried to meet him, I haven't succeeded."
"Cuicui, you're really capable!"
"Yes, we are all fortunate thanks to Cuicui!"
Seeing her former good sister flattering her so much, Wang Cuicui smiled smugly.
"We're all good sisters, why say such things? Alright, don't just stand there, hurry inside."
Wang Cuicui eagerly extended her hand, and the group stepped into the side hall.
In the center of the side hall sat a round-faced Taoist priest in his fifties, wearing a Taoist robe. He was bald, holding a wooden sword, and had an arrogant and opportunistic expression.
This person was Master Hu!
Liang Tingting and the women chosen earlier to serve Master Hu were by his side, their chests half-exposed, exuding charm. However, Jiang Biyun and the others seemed to perceive nothing improper, finding it perfectly normal.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xuan became even more certain of his earlier thoughts.
"Master Hu, Jiang Biyun, whom I met a few days ago, is here to fulfill her vow!"
Wang Cuicui bowed to Master Hu, her chest's allure on full display.
Master Hu glanced at Jiang Biyun, a flash of greed in his eyes.
He particularly liked women like Jiang Biyun, who were past their prime.
Although his heart was filled with desire, he maintained a calm demeanor and said, "Then I will fulfill the vow for Ms. Jiang!"
As he spoke, Master Hu stood up, a talisman appearing in his hand. He walked in front of Jiang Biyun.
He intended to cast a mind-controlling spell to make Jiang Biyun obey his every word!
He chanted incantations.
Suddenly, his gaze sharpened!
Master Hu raised his hand abruptly, about to place the talisman on Jiang Biyun's forehead.
Jiang Biyun even had an expression of reverence, full of anticipation.
The Su family's fortune had changed because of Master Hu. If she could fulfill her vow, she would forever be protected by Master Hu, and the Su family would prosper forever!
Seeing this, Wang Cuicui and Liang Tingting showed a hint of coldness.
The Su family, the Su family, even if you have now become one of the four great families, aren't you still paving the way for us?!
And you will become Master Hu's plaything!
But just as the talisman was two centimeters away from Jiang Biyun's forehead, a cold voice suddenly rang out, "That's enough!"
Before the words even fell, a hand grabbed Master Hu's wrist.
"Who are you?"
Master Hu suddenly turned his head and saw Chen Xuan's icy face, glaring at him fiercely. His gaze immediately turned cold.
Everyone else was stunned. How dare Chen Xuan obstruct Master Hu?
They showed deep concern, worried that Chen Xuan would anger Master Hu and incur his wrath upon them.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly, completely fearless, and announced his name, uttering two words: "Chen Xuan!"
"You mere child, how dare you block my spell? You are obstructing the heavens, you deserve to die!"
Master Hu tried to pull his hand away from Chen Xuan and deal with him, but Chen Xuan's hand was like an iron clamp. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free, his old face turning red.
He thought to himself: What did this kid eat to be so strong?
"Hurry and release my hand, or I will make your Su family go bankrupt immediately!" Master Hu said in a fit of rage.
Chen Xuan laughed heartily, "Master Hu, since you're so capable, why can't you pull your hand back?"
"You..."
Master Hu's face darkened, and he gnashed his teeth.
Wang Cuicui reprimanded, "Chen Xuan, we kindly brought you in, and you dare to be rude to Master Hu!"
Liang Tingting also said, "Aunt Jiang, why don't you discipline your live-in son-in-law? If your son-in-law truly angers Master Hu, Master Hu can use a spell to revert your Su family to its original state!"
Jiang Biyun trembled with fear and quickly said, "Chen Xuan, hurry and let go of Master Hu!"
In Jiang Biyun's opinion, the Su family's fortune had changed because of Master Hu, so Master Hu's abilities were beyond doubt. If he angered Master Hu, the Su family would truly be finished.
Others also accused Chen Xuan, calling him an ungrateful wretch and saying they shouldn't have brought Chen Xuan to see Master Hu.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan shrugged and released Master Hu's wrist.
Master Hu winced in pain, but outwardly, he remained calm and maintained his image as a master, as he was, after all, a renowned feng shui master.
Jiang Biyun turned to Master Hu and quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, Master Hu. My son-in-law is a bit rough and has offended you inadvertently. I apologize to you here!"
"Hmph!"
Master Hu snorted coldly, glanced at Chen Xuan, and said, "If you had any sincerity, you wouldn't have brought such a brute to see me. Hurry up and throw this brute out!"
Jiang Biyun repeatedly agreed and waved at Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan, you go out first."
Chen Xuan, however, stood still and looked at Master Hu, saying, "Master Hu, your tricks are over. Immediately lift the mind-controlling spell on these people, and then go to the Martial Alliance Special Affairs Office to surrender. I can spare your life!"
Master Hu's pupils constricted sharply.
He hadn't expected Chen Xuan to know about the mind-controlling spell. Could this kid also understand feng shui and mystic arts?
"Kid, stop talking nonsense. What mind-controlling spell? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm just bringing benefits to everyone."
Master Hu's face darkened, and he said angrily.
"Exactly, what mind-controlling spell? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"
The others also accused Chen Xuan.
"Bringing benefits? Are you sure it's bringing benefits?" Chen Xuan's lips curled into a cold smile.
