Guanyin Temple, Jiangnan City.
It was bustling and noisy. Hawkers on both sides of the street were selling their goods. Many fortune-tellers were setting up stalls to tell fortunes, which made the front of the Guanyin Temple very lively.
Ye Xuan, in a black robe and gray hair, sat in front of a quaint square table. There was nothing else. If it were not for the word "fortune-telling" written on the white paper on the table, no one would think that Ye Xuan was a fortune-teller.
Yes, Ye Xuan was a fortune-teller at the moment.
Birth, old age, illness, and death, natural disasters and unexpected disasters, these were the lives of mortals. Although Ye Xuan could not predict the past and future, as a cultivator, he had some knowledge of the Qi Reading Technique.
To make money and improve the life of his family, this was the reason why Ye Xuan condescended to become a fortune-teller.
Ye Xuan did not open his business from early morning to noon. He was not in a hurry. Patience was not something that Ye Xuan lacked.
However, Ye Xuan suddenly appeared in front of the Guanyin Temple, which made many fortune-tellers who made a living looking at Ye Xuan coldly. They secretly disdained Ye Xuan's outfit.
Ye Xuan naturally did not care about other people's eyes. He lowered his eyes and quietly waited for the person he was waiting for to appear.
Suddenly.
A burst of noise made Ye Xuan look at the source of the noise.
A tall woman came out of the Guanyin Temple. The woman's eyebrows were picturesque, and her makeup was extremely delicate. Her clothes were expensive, and she was about 20 years old. Behind her were several men in black who looked like bodyguards.
However, this woman's brows were tightly knitted, as if she had something on her mind. She did not pay any attention to the fortune-tellers on both sides of the street. The bodyguards beside her even fiercely glared at these fortune-tellers. Only then did they stop the noise from their mouths.
"That's her." Ye Xuan nodded slowly with satisfaction in his eyes.
At this time, Zhuo Junting was distraught. Her grandfather was sick and had been in a coma for half a month. According to the doctor's diagnosis, her grandfather's body was gradually weakening. She was afraid that it wouldn't be long before …
Zhuo Junting didn't dare to think any further. If Grandpa Guo died, the entire Zhuo Clan would fall into chaos.
Although she had invited famous doctors from home and abroad, none of them could diagnose her grandfather's illness. In desperation, she could only place her hopes on the illusory gods. This was also the reason why she appeared at the Guanyin Temple.
"Haunted by ghosts, in less than three days, your loved ones will die."
Suddenly, an abrupt voice rang out beside Zhuo Junting's ear, causing her to be startled. Then, her expression changed drastically as she abruptly looked towards the source of the voice.
"You … What did you mean when you said you were haunted by ghosts?" She quickly walked up to Ye Xuan and asked coldly.
Ye Xuan could tell at a glance that there was a faint trace of Yin Qi on Zhuo Junting's body. It was obvious that there was a ghost haunting her family. Since her body was fine, there must be someone in her family who was possessed by a ghost.
"Your loved ones are possessed by ghosts and their vitality is constantly being devoured. If you want to save them, I have a talisman here. All you need to do is stick it between their eyebrows and it will save their life." Ye Xuan said coldly. A jade talisman suddenly appeared in his hand and he placed it on the table.
Zhuo Junting was stunned when she saw the jade talisman on the table. She looked at Ye Xuan with suspicion in her eyes.
"How much do you want for this jade talisman?" Zhuo Junting's expression darkened.
"One million." Ye Xuan directly stated the price.
Whoa!
As Ye Xuan stated the price, there was an uproar around.
"Is this kid crazy?"
"Does he really think she's that easy to trick?"
"Hehe, this kid really doesn't want to live anymore. One look at this lady and I can tell she's either rich or noble. I'm afraid he'll be in for it later."
The peddlers and fortune-tellers on both sides of the street had already noticed this scene. All kinds of disdainful laughter could be heard.
At this time, Zhuo Junting's expression was extremely ugly. Obviously, she also regarded Ye Xuan in front of her as a charlatan. The bodyguard next to her looked at Ye Xuan with hostility.
"Let's go." Zhuo Junting's expression was cold. She ordered the bodyguard to turn and leave.
Ye Xuan silently watched Zhuo Junting leave. He had no intention of stopping her because he believed that this woman would come back.
Sure enough, Zhuo Junting turned back after taking a dozen steps. Her eyes were filled with a complicated expression.
"There's one million in this card. The last six digits of the card number are the password." Zhuo Junting directly took out a gold card and threw it on the table. This scene caused the surrounding crowd to be stunned. They felt like they were in a dream.
Although Zhuo Junting treated Ye Xuan as a charlatan, the fact that he could say something about her family gave her a glimmer of hope. She was already at the end of the road. She would not let go of even the slightest bit of hope.
One million was just a drop in the ocean for her.
Just as Zhuo Junting was about to take the jade talisman and leave, Ye Xuan's voice sounded at the right time. "One million just now, two million now."
Boom!
The surrounding crowd woke up from their daze. All kinds of curses were heard.
"Motherf * cker, aren't you too shameless?"
"Insatiable, insatiable."
"He already cheated her of one million and he's still so insatiable. If it were me, I'd give him a slap and let him know how powerful I am."
At this time, Zhuo Junting gritted her teeth. She looked at Ye Xuan as if she wanted to eat him alive. Her pair of delicate fists were clenched. Obviously, her anger had risen to the extreme.
"Miss, this man is a charlatan. Let me show him who's the boss." The bodyguard beside her was filled with righteous indignation. He rubbed his fists and was ready to beat Ye Xuan up.
"Okay, here you go."
Before the bodyguard could do anything, Zhuo Junting took out another gold card and threw it to Ye Xuan. Then, she picked up the jade talisman on the table and turned to leave. But after a few steps, she suddenly turned back and sneered at Ye Xuan. "If your jade talisman is fake, I can find you even if I have to turn Jiangnan City upside down."
With two million in hand, Ye Xuan did not take Zhuo Junting's threat to heart. He got up and left directly. This made Zhuo Junting really treat him as a charlatan.
How could he just turn around and leave after taking the money? Obviously, the other party had a guilty conscience.
"Miss, can I help you get him back?" The bodyguard whispered.
Looking at Ye Xuan's back, Zhuo Junting was embarrassed and angry. Then, she shook her head and said, "No need. Let's go home."
…
In the center of Jiangnan City.
Ye Xuan walked on the bustling street. The place he was heading to was Jinhua Luxury Shopping Mall. Ye Xuan did not ask for much in exchange for two million Xia currency from Zhuo Junting with a piece of jade talisman.
One had to know that the jade talisman contained his own blood fiendish aura. Not to mention being possessed by a ghost, even a ghost general level ghost would be annihilated into dregs. Compared to a mere two million, Ye Xuan was at a disadvantage. When Junting discovered the use of this jade talisman, she would probably feel deeply fortunate to have met Ye Xuan.
