12 Swallows build nests

Huang Yawen finally admitted that Xiaoli was not the flesh and blood of Boss Lv.

Boss Lv was furious and covered his chest with his hands, his eyes red as if he were a wild beast. "Huang Yawen!"

"Shut up! I'm the one who made you what you are today. Giving you a billion is more than enough. If you dare to sue me, I'll kill you!" Huang Yawen shouted like a shrew, having completely lost face after her admission.

Boss Lv's face was filled with rage and sadness, and for a moment, he couldn't say a word.

Huang Yawen continued to press me, "Tell me, what should I do to save Xiaoli! I still want to have a son. Speak up!"

I shook my head. "It's easy to change feng shui, but hard to undo it. The sha qi inside the tent has already formed. Unless the mountain is blasted, it's impossible to change the qi of your Huang family. But after the mountain is blasted, your Huang family will return to poverty, and you will soon end up on the streets."

Huang Yawen's lips trembled, and she tightly clenched her fingers, her face filled with indecision.

I understood her thoughts. She was a believer in feng shui and had witnessed its power through early collaborations.

She didn't dare not to believe me when I said she would end up on the streets. And being on the streets was something this vain woman could never accept.

"I can't be poor! I'll give you 10 million if you help me, no, 20 million!" Huang Yawen stared at me intently, offering a high price.

I actually had a way to help her, but I refused and said the only way was to blast the mountain.

Huang Yawen's face turned pale, and she suddenly took out her phone to call someone, but the phone rang for a long time without anyone answering.

I had a hunch that she was trying to call the feng shui master who had set up the formation at Qiansihu Lake, but she couldn't get through. It seemed that the feng shui master had already left.

As expected, Huang Yawen tried calling several more times but no one answered, and she finally gave up, sitting down slowly, completely deflated.

Seeing this, I stepped forward and shouted, "Return the wealth to the Lv family, and I have a way to guarantee that you will become a billionaire. I won't say you'll make money, but you won't run out of it for three generations."

Dealing with Huang Yawen was tricky, and I was afraid that she would resort to desperate measures, which would not only prevent me from discovering the secret of Qiansihu Lake but also put Boss Lv in a difficult situation.

At my words, Huang Yawen's eyes lit up with hope. "How can you guarantee my wealth? And my daughter... I still want to have a son, I must have a son!"

"It can all be done, but I need to ask you one thing," I said solemnly, staring at Huang Yawen with a fierce expression.

Huang Yawen told me to ask, and she would answer if she knew.

I spoke up, "Where did Wan Ling Xie come from? What is the feng shui master's purpose?"

Huang Yawen trembled and looked frightened, instinctively shaking her head. It seemed that the feng shui master had cast a spell on her, forbidding her from revealing the secret.

I stepped forward and used the Taiqing breath technique, pinching my fingers and forcefully pressing them against her forehead, invading her shen guang.

She trembled again, her eyes becoming slightly dazed. I shouted, "Huang Yawen, where did Wan Ling Xie come from?"

"Huangnigu. I asked a friend from Dongjiang Shijin Mining Group to dig it up. It's a skeleton."

"What is the feng shui master's purpose?" I continued to press.

Huang Yawen shook her head again, but I repeated the Taiqing breath technique on her forehead. She painfully said, "He said that the righteous path is difficult to follow, while the evil path is easy. Wan Ling Xie will become his little ghost, unbeatable by anyone."

"Then where did he go?" I asked increasingly forcefully.

"He left, I don't know where. He'll be back in thirteen years, there are still two years left until he returns to collect Wan Ling Xie," Huang Yawen said honestly, and then her eyes darkened, and she sprayed a mouthful of black blood upward.

She had damaged her liver, and the constant clash between the feng shui master's spell and my Taiqing breath was too much for her to bear.

The technique I had just used was called the She Ling Shu, an extremely domineering and powerful technique. It was usually used to absorb the yin qi of ghosts, but on living people, it could suppress their shen guang and damage their yang qi. This was also a punishment for Huang Yawen.

I released Huang Yawen, and she coughed violently for a few moments before trembling and looking at me. "Master, you promised to guarantee me a lifetime of wealth and honor..."

This person was completely obsessed with money.

I looked at Lv Xiulin and asked, "Mr. Lv, what do you think?"

"I'll give her one billion and divorce her." Lv Xiulin's face was cold, without a trace of mercy.

As a powerful man like him, he wouldn't have any women's compassion.

"Alright." I turned to Huang Yawen and said, "Mrs. Huang, after you take the one billion, leave Dongjiang and go as far away as possible. That's the only way to break free from the influence of being a mistress in the account. Then settle down, find a local feng shui master to help you locate a feng shui treasure trough."

"And then?" Huang Yawen's face was grayish, hiding her unwillingness, pain, and extreme anger well.

I observed her face again and said, "Move your ancestors' graves to the feng shui treasure trough, and plant twelve banyan trees around it. That will help you keep your wealth."

"Banyan trees? I've heard that banyan trees don't tolerate people, and you shouldn't plant them near ancestors' graves..." Huang Yawen looked doubtful.

"Banyan trees don't tolerate people, but they do tolerate wealth. If you want to keep your wealth, you need to take special measures. And remember, once you have a son, immediately transfer all your property to him. Otherwise, he won't be tolerated by the banyan trees and may die young." I advised.

Huang Yawen nodded firmly, thanked me, and left in a hurry, followed by her bodyguards.

I shook my head as I watched her leave. This woman was not giving up.

"Mr. Li, I'm afraid my wife won't back down easily..." Lv Xiulin said thoughtfully.

"Indeed, she won't back down. She's just panicking now. If I'm not mistaken, once the feng shui practitioner comes back, she'll immediately counterattack. This is just a temporary solution."

"What about your feng shui treasure trough plan?"

"Banyan trees don't tolerate people. I'm setting a trap for her. If she counterattacks in the future, the banyan trees will become the grave markers for her Huang family, and she'll take that one billion with her to the grave." I had actually been very lenient, using the geomantic aura of the feng shui treasure trough to resist the malevolent qi of the banyan trees and giving Huang Yawen two years to reflect.

It all depended on how she grasped the opportunity.

Lv Xiulin nodded after listening and said, "As expected of a master. With just a few tricks, you've solved a big trouble for my Lv family. Lv Xiulin bows to you."

He bowed deeply.

I helped him up and said, "Mr. Lv, you don't need to be so polite. I'm here to solve my own troubles and make some money. I'm quite interested in that 50 million of yours."

"Haha, Master Li is a straightforward person. I'll give you 10 million!" Lv Xiulin laughed. "I just need Master Li to help improve the feng shui of my Lv family. How can we break the Mistress in the Account?"

The Mistress in the Account was the key to the Lv family's fortune.

I already had a plan in mind and said, "I need to blast a mountain. Mr. Lv, you need to prepare more manpower."

"No problem, I'll ask the people from Shijin Mining Group to help!" Lv Xiulin couldn't wait to improve his family's feng shui as soon as possible.

"Shijin Mining Group?" My mind moved as I recalled Huang Yawen also mentioning Shijin Mining Group.

"Shijin Mining Group is the only coal mining group in Dongjiang and even the southwest. In the last decade or so, they've established a branch factory in the western suburbs of Dongjiang to mine the minerals there. I'm an investor in the branch factory," Lv Xiulin explained.

"Huang Yawen said that Shijin Mining dug up remains in Huangnigu. That's where the Evil of Ten Thousand Souls is. Where is Huangnigu?" My face became serious.

"It's also in the western suburbs. It used to be an uninhabited valley, but now Shijin Mining has moved in and is gradually excavating that area. I've heard that they often dig up corpses. Some experts have speculated that Huangnigu may have a mass grave from the Anti-Japanese War era, presumably miners killed by the Japanese."

A mass grave!

My heart trembled. Now that I had found the Evil of Ten Thousand Souls' homeland, things would be much easier. At least I had a clue.

"Mr. Lv, could you ask Shijin Mining to suspend mining there? I need to go and take a look," I suggested.

Lv Xiulin hesitated for a moment and nodded. "Alright, Master Li has greatly helped me. I'll personally go and talk to them."

"That's good. Also, could you arrange for some miners to come with me to Fengtou Mountain? I need to blast a mountain and open a ventilation shaft to turn the Mistress in the Account into a swallow's nest."

"What's the significance of that?" Lv Xiulin was excited.

"Fengtou Mountain used to be a swallow's perch, but it's easy for them to fly away. If we turn it into a swallow's nest, they'll fly but not leave, ensuring the continuous flow of wealth for the Lv family," I explained briefly.

Lv Xiulin's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands. "Excellent! A swallow's nest, so they'll permanently reside in my Lv family!"

I smiled and didn't say much more.

Wang Dong was still waiting for me. As soon as I came out, he saluted me and said, "Brother Li, you're still the man! Impressive!"

I heaved a sigh of relief. Let's go home and rest first. I was exhausted.

As we walked out of the hotel, a man and a woman approached us. It was Lv Guohua and a woman.

The woman was about 165 cm tall with an extremely slim figure and fair skin, even prettier than Zhao Man.

Wang Dong's eyes widened immediately. "Wow, what a beautiful girl! No wonder my fortune-telling said I would have a love life soon. It looks like my love is here!"

"Didn't you say when you had your fortune told that you and Zhao Man were destined to be together?" I asked with a sidelong glance.

"Uh, well, even Heaven can make mistakes sometimes," Wang Dong said as he approached. "Mr. Lv, the issue has been resolved. Who is this beautiful lady?"

"My younger sister Lv Qianli. Sigh," Lv Guohua said with a pained expression, as if there was more to the story than met the eye.

I observed Lv Qianli. Her features were handsome, her nose was high and straight, and she had the aura of someone in a high position, even more so than Lv Guohua.

Her forehead was broad, and her fate palace seemed to have a purple aura, truly remarkable.

This girl had even greater potential than Lv Guohua.

Unfortunately, her eyebrows were flushed with spring, her earlobes were red, and her pair of peach blossom eyes revealed a trace of innate allure.

Windy and licentious!

In just two days, this charming and valiant woman had become "lewd".

As I observed her, Lv Qianli also looked at me, fluttering her eyelids and lowering her head shyly, making my heart stir.

I thought to myself that she was indeed the daughter of the Windy and Licentious position of the Mistress in the Account. In ancient times, she would have been a seductive beauty who brought calamity to the nation.

"Master Li, what should we do about my sister? She doesn't know about my mother's scheme, and she doesn't want to leave the Lv family," Lv Guohua said to me with a pleading look.

I thought for a moment and asked, "Miss Lv, how far have you gone with that driver?"

Lv Guohua looked pained and glanced around before saying, "She hasn't lost her innocence. I don't want to say too much about the details."

"That's good. The daughter of the Windy and Licentious position must not taste the sweetness. Otherwise, there's no turning back," I said as I looked at Lv Qianli, who was lowering her head. "First, lock her up and don't let her get close to men. After I break the feng shui of the Mistress in the Account, I'll redirect the qi back to Mr. Lv, and she'll be fine."
