at the abyss below, a netherworld teeming with ghosts. The area around Huilong Village had already yielded many things from the ghostly influx there. What horrors would be unleashed if this place we...Boss Zhong urged earnestly, "Miss Xiaoqiao, the Shen family is very well-known in the circle. Being able to invite them to help would be an honor for me. I think the cost wouldn't be small. This sorcerer asked for three million, and I won't give him a single cent less! I will never succumb to threats like this!"

My brother let out a sneer and said, "Uncle Zhong, you're really good with words. You're asking us to do this, which means we're interfering. As the saying goes, cutting off someone's source of income is like killing their parents. You're making us the enemy, so you can wash your hands clean."

Boss Zhong was taken aback for a moment, awkwardly waving his hands and saying, "No, no, I absolutely didn't mean that! We're not strangers. Besides, you helped me out tremendously last time and didn't charge much. Your noble character is truly admirable. I don't trust other wizards; I only trust you!"

My brother leaned against the sofa, laughing lazily and said: "Of course you can trust us! We are young, easy to talk to and easy to please. The other party is cunning and calculating, making you feel uneasy all the time. It's better to find someone like us, with no experience in the world, who are kind-hearted, right"

He was very straightforward. Boss Zhong, embarrassed, reached out his handkerchief and wiped his forehead: “Lord Mu is too humble. Although you are young, your mind is amazing...amazing… Haha, to be honest, I do think the other party is difficult to deal with...but I dare not offend the Feng Shui master either. Otherwise, if he gives me a hidden hand, I wouldn't even know how I died!”

My brother let out a sneer: "So you want us to go in there and take the blame for you Since you invited him in the first place, you should let him finish what he started. We going in now would be interfering. It wouldn't be on our side."

"...and now, Xiao Qiao and I are in different positions. If the other party seeks revenge, they will target the Mu family and the Shen family. Wouldn't our junior disciples with weaker cultivation be implicated by us"

Mr. Zhong opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

“So we won’t interfere in this matter, but we can give you some things to ward off evil. They'll be very useful... That way, even if the Taoist priest goes to the other side to strengthen the negative energy against you, we’ll still have a countermeasure… This is called meeting force with force. It helps you ward off evil and also prevents us from having a direct conflict.” My brother said with a smile.

Mr. Zhong hesitated and asked, "Then, what kind of thing should we use to ward off evil spirits"

My brother pondered for a moment and said, “There are quite a few options… you could hide five emperor coins within the door frame, but that's a whole building, not a small house. Even if you used hundreds of five emperor coins, it wouldn't be enough... perhaps bronze lions or biting-sword celestial beasts plus silver coin pouches would be better”

"What's a Sky Beast that Bites Swords" Boss Zhong was a little confused.

My brother got up to get it for him. I explained, "It's the eye of a dragon, one of the nine sons of the dragon."

Legend has it that the Yazi dragon has a lion's head and a ferocious, murderous nature. Its head is often carved onto weapons, and the image of its mouth biting onto a sword hilt is known as the "Sword-biting Celestial Beast."

Therefore, he also possesses the magical power to exorcise evil and subdue harmful spirits. He can use a face with a head resembling that of a creature with eyes like beads biting a sword at the center of the eight trigrams to suppress and dispel the fierce and menacing energy.

My brother got him a bite-sword heavenly beast and a silver coin pouch, hanging it at every layer where the tiger's claws would strike.

Mr. Zhong expressed his heartfelt gratitude and asked, "How much are these Anything given by Master Mu is bound to be genuine and expensive. For old times' sake, give me a friend's price!"

My brother grinned, "Deal. Three million, friend's price."

"...Zhong Shu's mouth twitched."

My brother doesn't want to directly confront this skinny old man, but he can't let him raise money for the ghost princess either.

Although she is under state secret protection, it's impossible for her expenses to be covered indefinitely. She needs money in the world, and she clings to Lin Yanhuan, presumably for financial gain or to ride on the rising tide of the Lin family. Cutting off her financial resources would also be a blow to her.

My brother smiled and reassured Mr. Zhong: “Mr. Zhong, don’t worry. We only charge once. If that skinny old man tries to swindle you again, we’ll definitely help out. You don’t have to worry about that.”

“Good good good! With your words, Zhong Shu can rest assured!”

Holding a three-million dollar check, I looked at my brother: "You... want to save up some wife's capital"

"Poof... What are you stuffing" My brother looked at me in terror.

“Old, wife, and capital.” I reminded him, syllable by syllable: “You’ve reached the age to talk about marriage. Although our lives are a bit more thrilling and dangerous, we don’t exactly roll around in a sea of corpses and blood. You should start thinking about saving up some capital for your future wife.”

My brother reached out and touched my head: “You don’t have a fever, do you How did you start worrying about these things…”

"Don't joke around, I'm serious. Lin Yanqin likes you so much, you won't really be in a relationship with her for your whole life, will you" I asked, frowning.

"Why not It would be so easy! I don't even know what will happen between us in the future."

"That... now girls all want a house and a car when they get married, you at least have some assets under your name, right You just have a few gaming accounts, who would marry you! Don't you want to be a son-in-law!"

My older brother smirked and said, “How is that possible I wouldn't want to wait on Mrs. Lin, her mother-in-law! Besides, what if we don't have a house or a car If I wanted to get married, Qing would definitely marry me.”

"You're too confident, aren't you Her family wouldn't agree."

"So, little Qiao, what's important to me isn't houses or cars, it's—" He winked at me. “You know.”

I understand, of course I do.

Mu family, tomb family.

What we want is not to quietly hoard wealth and be content with being modestly rich, but rather a visible and respectable status.

"Well, should I still take the money" I hesitated to ask.

Three million That's enough to buy a pretty nice house, though I think even the nicest apartment building couldn't compare to my three-story townhouse with a yard.

"Here, take it. I'm saving my money for games."

It's like he doesn't spend enough... My brother spends half his monthly expenses on gaming, but he knows his limits. I don't want to take away this hobby of his, and besides, my dad plays games too, saying it can prevent Alzheimer's.

My brother said, "I'm going to buy some things," as he put on his coat.

"What are you buying" I asked, turning around.

"Condom."

Pff…

" ... I remember you had quite a lot, didn't you To use them all up so quickly!"

No way! Could it be that all the private moments with Lin Yanqin have been this intense

"No, I threw them all away. Some had been stored for a while."

"Oh, then buy a little less at a time, and buy more when you run out." I turned to go upstairs.

My brother nonchalantly replied, "What I just bought it as a backup. We didn't use one when we were doing it."

I froze, and by the time I could process the enormity of his words, my brother had already left the store.

Useless!

He wasn't quite sure how letting someone die wouldn't damage the Lin family and Lin Yanqin's reputation

Why aren't you using condoms How do you protect yourself then Do you just... do it outside every time...

I could vaguely guess why Lin Yanqin had been stuttering before...

```. He looked down at me with arrogance."How did you know I had other thoughts" I retorted."Hmph... You know best yourself." He snorted coldly: "Seeking immortals and worshipping gods, the most importan...
