You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Shang Xiangyun sensed something in his sleep and raised his hand to wipe his eyes.

Turning his head, he saw Su Chen yawn: "Master Su, good morning~"

Su Chen glanced at the several planting books on the coffee table: "Good morning, why aren't you upstairs sleeping?"

Shang Xiangyun felt wronged when this was mentioned.

He had just opened his mouth when his gaze fell on the orange tree in the flowerpot. He instinctively touched the back of his hand, even though the redness and swelling had disappeared. He chuckled awkwardly, "Well, I was too tired yesterday. Sleeping here is fine, really fine."

The orange tree didn't give him any face.

"He's too weak."

"I can't even lift a small flowerpot."

As he spoke, the orange tree branches and leaves stretched out again: "Young friend, you are quite generous. Thank you."

"Did the senior suffer serious injuries before falling into a deep sleep?"

"Yes, it's my fault for not judging people well and making friends carelessly."

The conversation stopped there, clearly indicating that they were not going to continue.

Su Chen changed the subject, repeating what Lin Jingyu had just asked.

The orange tree burst into laughter.

“Many people have asked me this question before.”

"It's probably rare for an orange tree to live as long as I have."

As they spoke, the orange tree floated out of the flowerpot, transformed into human form, and slowly sat down beside Shang Xiangyun.

The latter couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"It smells so good, it smells amazing!"

He twitched his nose, turned to look at the woman, and after seeing her features clearly, he was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head awkwardly.

The woman glanced at Shang Xiangyun indifferently, then nodded to Su Chen and Lin Jingyu: "Green Branch."

After looking around and carefully examining the sofa, he said, "I woke up feeling like the world has turned upside down. Is this... a stool?"

“It’s a sofa!” Shang Xiangyun explained.

"Um..." Shang Xiangyun scratched his forehead, looking embarrassed, "Senior Green Branch... out of so many people, why did you choose me?"

Although he felt a sense of honor, he felt uneasy about the fact that this man would beat him up whenever he was unhappy, and that he had done so quite severely, and that it cost him 450 million.

Green Branch glanced at him: "You have... a lot of fertilizer on you."

"Fertilizer?" Shang Xiangyun blinked blankly.

Seeing that Su Chen and Lin Jingyu's gazes were both fixed on his abdomen, he frowned.

"Ahem..." Lin Jingyu reminded him, "Brother Xiangyun, haven't you been having sex lately?"

Shang Xiangyun was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lüzhi in disbelief: "No... really?"

Is it because he has a lot of impacted stool in his body?

He thought...

Shang Xiangyun's face instantly fell.

"You have a problem with that?" Green Branch asked him calmly. As soon as she finished speaking, a branch as thick as a finger quickly emerged from her palm and waved it in front of Shang Xiangyun.

Shang Xiangyun quickly waved his hand.

"No, no, I...it's an honor, yes, an honor."

Catching a glimpse of Lin Jingmo coming down the stairs out of the corner of his eye, he sprang up as if he had found a savior and rushed to meet him.

"Dude, buddy, you're finally awake."

Lin Jingmo broke free and frowned: "Don't pull or tug at each other on the stairs."

He glanced at Green Branch sitting on the sofa, paused for a moment, then smiled and greeted her.

"Good morning!"

"Hello there!"

Green Branch smiled at him and looked Su Chen over carefully: "Are all Xuan Masters like you nowadays?"

"Senior refers to..."

Green Branch frowned: "I remember their Dao power used to be cyan, but yours is..."

"It's very comfortable," she concluded.

Su Chen recalled the effects of his power and nodded with a smile: "I guess I'm special."

He gathered his strength and reached out towards the green branches.

The latter accepted without any hesitation, and then quickly narrowed his eyes.

Seeing this, Shang Xiangyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Dude, I'm in a really bad situation, even worse than you. Let me tell you, we're now in the same boat."

Lin Jingmo glanced at him: "I'm not miserable."

"I understand, I understand. You're making the best of a bad situation. Now I finally know why that Cai guy calls her 'Grandma.' Anyone who gets stuck with someone like that... well, Master Su would have to respectfully call her 'Senior.' It would be a headache."

Following Lin Jingmo to the dining table, Shang Xiangyun saw the rice noodle rolls that were served, picked up her chopsticks, grabbed one, and put it in her mouth.

Lin Jingmo frowned: "Did you brush your teeth?"

Shang Xiangyun blinked and waved his hand: "That's not important. Let me tell you, if her temper is like..."

“She can hear me.”

The name Lin Jingmo immediately silenced Shang Xiangyun.

He blinked, then suddenly slapped his forehead, on the verge of tears.

"Accept your fate. It'll only take six months to a year. Just serve them well."

Lin Jingmo sat down, drinking soy milk while making a phone call.

Shang Xiangyun listened to him reporting the situation to his elders at home, shrugged helplessly, and moved heavily toward the sofa.

"Brother Xiangyun, aren't you going to eat breakfast?"

"Eat, I..." Shang Xiangyun turned around and dragged his feet toward the bathroom.

Lin Jingyu asked with some concern, "Is he alright?"

Su Chen smiled.

"Don't worry, Xiangyun's bad mood is only temporary."

"By the way, have you figured out the underground forces in Huacheng yet?"

"You mean... Brother Long?"

"Or...the people behind Jiang Li?"

Su Chen raised an eyebrow: "Looks like you've found something."

Lin Jingyu smiled at him, turned and went into the study, quickly took out a document and handed it to Su Chen.

After a quick glance, Su Chen raised an eyebrow: "Eight years ago, Jiang Li was bought at a high price by that Master Zhou at an underground auction. Master Zhou released her and even taught her how to make money..."

Lin Jingyu nodded.

"Not only that, but we also asked a teacher to tutor her and send her to school."

"It is said that most of the people auctioned off at that underground auction will eventually have their hands and feet cut off and be turned into human pigs."

“In the past, many wealthy people in the south liked to keep human pigs as decorations in their homes.”

"Especially those with good birth charts."

"If that's the case, it's no wonder she regards Master Zhou as her benefactor."

Lin Jingyu saw Su Chen hand over the folder, took it, and closed it.

"Interestingly, we didn't have much trouble collecting this information."

"I suspect that Master Zhou intentionally released this information."

“Over the years, Jiang Li has frequented casinos and docks. With her around, there have been virtually no major incidents.”

Su Chen nodded: "That's normal. Her illusion is very peculiar and lasts for a long time."

He then asked, "Where is Master Zhou?"

Lin Jingyu sighed helplessly when this was mentioned.

"Very mysterious."

"Almost no one in Huacheng has ever seen him."

"I heard that he didn't wear a mask when he attended the auction before, but no one remembered his face."

Su Chen was not surprised.

Lin Jingyu: "So I suspect that Jiang Li learned his illusion magic from him."

“He has a house in Huacheng, a three-story building. The building is patrolled by bodyguards all year round, but the neighbors have never seen him come in or out.”

"He also kept seven women, and arranged different accommodations for each of them."

"No one has ever seen him have any contact with those women, yet he has fathered more than a dozen children, three of whom are currently pregnant."

"In short... he was like a transparent person."

Su Chen nodded: "What about Xiao Tao?"

Lin Jingyu finally seemed a bit more energetic.

“Someone saw her at an underground casino last night, saying she looked radiant and was entertaining guests.”

He carefully examined Su Chen's expression and sighed, "Why aren't you surprised at all?"

Su Chen shrugged: "Since it's a glutton, eating a lot and eating well will naturally give it energy."

"Taotie?" Green Branch opened her eyes and looked at Su Chen with a puzzled expression.
