The woman in the affectionate photo was named Tina, a prominent returnee who worked for Northern Dipper Medicine, a company on par with Wankang Pharmaceuticals. Tina served as the diplomatic ambassador for Northern Dipper Medicine, essentially working in public relations.
In her role as the head of the public relations department, Tina was known for her charm and social skills. This time, she approached Xu Zhe, the vice president of Wankang Pharmaceuticals, with the intention of obtaining some internal information from the company.
However, Xu Zhe, who fancied himself quite clever, had no idea that his actions had already been discovered. The only reason he still held his position was that he had not yet done anything against the company's interests. Despite knowing Tina's true identity, he continued to engage with her, which displeased Wankang Pharmaceuticals and the Liu Family significantly. This information served as evidence against him.
"Since I have proven my abilities, it's your turn to address your issues!" Xiao Yefeng said confidently, standing on the shoulders of those who came before him. He had only just begun to delve into these matters, relying on information stored in his memory.
"No matter what happens from now on, Brother Xiao, you will always be a good person in my heart who bravely fights against perversion. Enough of the small talk; since you truly are a capable Geomancer, you must understand the issues here without us having to elaborate," Liu Yiyi said after sharing a few words only they could comprehend.
"Hahaha, very well! Just based on that statement, I have no regrets!" Xiao Yefeng replied joyfully upon hearing Liu Yiyi's words.
At that moment, Mei Mo'er observed their interaction with confusion and scratched her head. Xiao Yefeng then continued, "The feng shui here has an exceptionally strong ability to gather wealth; the financial energy is immense. While this is a good thing, it doesn't necessarily bode well when combined with the underground terrain."
As soon as Xiao Yefeng finished speaking, Mei Mo'er and Liu Yiyi exchanged glances and nodded in agreement. Xiao Yefeng added, "If I'm not mistaken, this place must have originally been a mass grave site, with over eighty percent of the graves being unclaimed. Am I right?"
After nodding in acknowledgment, Liu Yiyi responded, "You're correct; this was indeed once a mass grave site. However, during construction, my Liu Family and other local families united to relocate the graves. We moved everyone buried here to public cemeteries; those with families were personally selected for relocation while those without were given proper rites before being moved. However..."
"But after these five buildings were completed, strange occurrences began happening here!" Xiao Yefeng interjected.
"Exactly. To be honest, if it weren't for the sudden passing of Uncle Qin Wu, my predecessor in this position, I wouldn't have been thrust into this role two months ago," Liu Yiyi said with a sigh.
"Someone died? Did it happen here?" Xiao Yefeng suddenly asked with a firm tone.
"You how do you know! We told everyone that Heart disease struck and he died at home," Mei Mo'er exclaimed in surprise.
"Indeed, indeed, the master of the territory is confused! How could such a huge loophole be overlooked!" Xiao Yefeng finally understood the seriousness of the situation. However, he could not comprehend why the Feng Shui master who constructed this place, capable of designing such a complicated Feng Shui arrangement, would neglect this most critical issue. Based on his ancestors' memories, Xiao Yefeng was certain that the Feng Shui here was incredibly strong in gathering wealth, but at the same time, it was also a perfect venue for gathering evil spirits.
At that moment, Xiao Yefeng asked, "What was Qin Wu's death like? Were his eyes wide open? Did he have blood flowing from all seven orifices?"
"Uncle Qin Wu indeed died with his eyes wide open, but there was no blood from the seven orifices." At this point, Liu Yiyi regarded Xiao Yefeng as being on par with Lu Zhan, since these questions were similar to those posed by Lu Zhan.
"That's good. It seems the earth evil spirit here has not yet taken shape. I suspect your Uncle Qin Wu must have already been ill; otherwise, the earth evil spirit wouldn't have had the capacity to kill." After a sigh of relief, Xiao Yefeng continued.
It was fortunate that there were no symptoms of blood from the seven orifices and that the earth evil spirit did not possess the ability to kill. At most, it was akin to the ability of that Spirit Tamer from last night—merely causing illness and confusion. However, Qin Wu likely had pre-existing health issues exacerbated by prolonged exposure to the energy of the earth evil spirit, ultimately triggering his condition. This was still manageable; if the energy of the earth evil spirit had successfully evolved into an Earthly Evil Spirit, then Xiao Yefeng could not guarantee he would be able to handle it. After all, he lacked experience in this area. Although he relied on ancestral memories, when it came to actual exorcism capabilities, Xiao Yefeng still fell short.
This limitation did not mean that Xiao Yefeng was incapable; rather, he had never had personal experience in this regard. Most importantly, he had no exorcism tools at hand. The Seven Star Needle, while possessing defensive capabilities, was far inferior to a true Geomancer's weapons when it came to offensive power.
In fact, the Xiao Family did possess powerful tools for exorcising spirits and dispelling evil. At its peak, the Xiao Family had four treasures for protecting their domain. Everything passed down through generations came from a sect known as Baoyun Palace. However, like many Feng Shui traditions, this sect was destroyed during the early scientific movement following the establishment of modern China. During the campaign against the "Four Olds," problems arose among the ancestors of the Xiao Family, leading to a loss of their treasures.
The history of the Xiao Family could be traced back even further; however, at this moment, Xiao Yefeng did not wish to reminisce. One thought occupied his mind: if only one of the four treasures—the Bagua Mirror—were in his possession now, he would confidently resolve this Feng Shui situation within three days.
"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao!" Mei Mo'er reached out and tapped Xiao Yefeng, pulling him out of his reverie. At that moment, Xiao Yefeng said, "Sorry, I got lost in thought for a moment. What were you just saying?"
"I’m asking if you have a way to resolve this? The situation is already quite serious; many employees on this floor have been distracted during work hours and have nearly caused major incidents several times now. It's creating a sense of panic," Liu Yiyi said with her brows furrowed.
"I can solve it, but I also can't!" After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yefeng replied earnestly.
The answer from Xiao Yefeng left the Two Goddesses exchanging glances. At that moment, Mei Mo'er said, "Brother Xiao, this is the first time we've heard such an answer. The Geomancers who came before either solved the problem and then asked for money, or they couldn't solve it and ran away immediately. Your answer is truly strange!"
"That's right. Brother Lu also came here, right after Uncle Qin Wu passed away. He had a way to resolve things, but there was one thing he couldn't guarantee, and he didn't have anything he could assure us," Liu Yiyi added.
"It’s normal that he didn’t tell you; that’s a common issue among us Geomancers." At this point, Xiao Yefeng had unknowingly been swept away by his memories. He didn’t even realize that as he kept recalling information from his past, he was getting closer to identifying himself as a Geomancer. In fact, he had already begun to see himself as one without feeling strange about it.
"Actually, Brother Lu's aura is too strong; there were some questions I couldn’t ask. Can you help us with that?" Liu Yiyi looked at Xiao Yefeng and asked.
"As long as it's you two beautiful ladies' questions, I will tell you everything I know!" Xiao Yefeng replied while looking at Liu Yiyi. Halfway through his sentence, he realized his words might lead others to think too much, so he teased instead. At that moment, Liu Yiyi understood what Xiao Yefeng meant; she knew he was accommodating her because of her brother. However, Mei Mo'er was unaware of this and, having a good impression of Xiao Yefeng, directly asked, "I wanted to ask this last time—what is the problem?"
As Mei Mo'er grabbed Xiao Yefeng's sleeve, her big eyes blinked rapidly at him. Xiao Yefeng shifted back slightly and said, "It's actually quite simple. We Geomancers don’t have any tools capable of suppressing Earthly Evils. These tools are not the cheap Peach Wood Swords sold on street corners nor are they the fancy golden swords; those are products of modern industry and lack any aura to suppress Earthly Evils."
