Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Slap in the Face, Feng Shui Bottle!
Huang Xiaolong insulted Master Ren on several occasions, causing Master Ren to laugh in anger. His face was filled with ferocity, and his eyes stared at Huang Xiaolong with an undisguised murderous intent.

Some members of the Lin Family present also harbored dissatisfaction towards Huang Xiaolong.

After going through great lengths to invite Master Ren, Huang Xiaolong’s unsolicited arrival was offending enough. To make matters worse, he constantly disparaged Master Ren, which was not only impolite but also excessively so.

“Why does he always come out to stir trouble… This person is arrogant, relying on his abilities, always biting when he sees people.” An individual from the second generation of the Lin Family muttered discontentedly.

Lin Jianfeng slightly raised his hand, indicating for the dissatisfied members of the hall to calm down momentarily.

“Little Long, what do you have to say?” Lin Jianfeng asked with a smile.

“Hmph!” Master Ren’s face turned purple with rage. “I have confirmed without a doubt, these items are rubbish, junk. What can this youngster say? However, since Lin Family has such a ‘mighty’ expert to back them up, let him solve your Feng Shui problem! I am returning to Hong Kong Island tomorrow!”

This time, Master Ren issued an ultimatum to the Lin Family.

Lin Jianfeng laughed, “Master Ren, please calm down. Regarding payment, my family is willing to offer an additional 20%.”

“Hmm” Upon hearing this, Master Ren’s eyes lit up. He didn’t utter another word, returned to his seat, and glared menacingly at Huang Xiaolong. “If you are able, you can evaluate the Lin Family’s ‘treasures’!”

Inside the hall, the number of people who were dissatisfied with Huang Xiaolong was increasing.

Just because Huang Xiaolong confronted Master Ren, the latter threatened, and Lin Jianfeng immediately made a compromise by offering an additional 20% to Master Ren.

While it might seem like just an additional 20% payment, it is a colossal sum!

Because of Huang Xiaolong’s few words, the Lin Family has lost a significant sum of money!

“Little Long, whatever you want to say, feel free to speak. Don’t hold back.” Lin Jing turned her captivating eyes, and seemed quite interested in Huang Xiaolong. Regardless of what Huang Xiaolong did, she supported him unconditionally and was full of anticipation and confidence.

“Master… Master Ren is too obnoxious… Smack him hard!” Lin Zicong also secretly cheered for Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong calmly said, “If these four items are discarded, the Lin Family’s losses would be more than several billion!”

At these words, the entire room was shocked!

Huang Xiaolong’s words were clear — the four items were worth at least several billion!

“Hahahaha” Master Ren laughed coldly with a hideous look.

Huang Xiaolong chose not to say more and walked over.

It wasn’t his intention to steal the limelight today. On one hand, he wanted to give Master Ren a hard slap in the face, and on the other hand, he was helping Lin Jing to assess these items.

“The four Feng Shui magic artifacts have different values and uses. Let me start with the least valuable.” Huang Xiaolong smiled slightly.

Then, he headed towards the second tray.

On the tray, there was a palm-sized bottle that seemed to be made of some kind of jade. A few obscure characters were engraved on the bottle.

“This is called ‘Feng Shui Bottle’…mainly serving two purposes.” Huang Xiaolong picked up the small bottle, casually twirling it while smiling. “The first function is to hang it above the front door of the house, with the bottle mouth facing outwards. This way, all wandering, homeless ghosts that pass by or want to enter your house will be sucked into the bottle, thus ensuring the safety of the household. This is essentially a door god.”

“The second function is to hang this Feng Shui bottle on the front door of your enemy’s house, with the bottle opening facing the interior. In this case, it is akin to a malicious curse, all the ghosts trapped in the bottle will rush into the enemy’s house, causing the death of the entire household. Not a single living creature will be spared!”

After Huang Xiaolong finished speaking, the whole hall was shocked!

If it’s what Huang Xiaolong said, the bottle has the ability to bless homes and curse enemies. Its value might not even be measurable with money!

“However, this Feng Shui Bottle can only absorb ordinary ghosts and is incapable of sucking up fierce ones, so its value is greatly reduced.” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

The core of the Feng Shui Bottle lies in the engraved symbols on its body. Obviously, the Feng Shui magician or Taoist who engraved these symbols had limited abilities.

If Huang Xiaolong were to engrave a few symbols on it, not to mention fierce ghosts, even ghost kings would be captivated by it!

Now, the reason why the Feng Shui bottle appears to be ordinary is because, over the years, the symbols on the bottle have lost their power. To transform it back into a magic artifact, a trace of divine power needs to be infused to activate it, or in simple terms, it needs to be consecrated again.

“Hahahaha” Master Ren laughed wildly. “A Feng Shui bottle? Hahahaha Interesting, very interesting. I didn’t expect that you could boast so fancifully…It seems you really do have the gift of persuasion!”

In the hall, many people from the Lin Family seemed skeptical.

A small bottle, completely ordinary, how could it have the two incredible functions that Huang Xiaolong said?

Huang Xiaolong gave a slight smile, took out a revealing symbol from his canvas bag, and said loudly. “All you commoners, watch closely!”

Boom

The revealing symbol burned itself, shining with golden light!

The next second, Huang Xiaolong infused a trace of divine power into the symbols on the bottle!

The symbols on the bottle suddenly sparkled with stunning and dazzling light!

Furthermore, a weird and eerie aura spread out!

The temperature in the hall dropped drastically, making people feel as if they were in a cave, causing them to shrink their necks from the cold!

Everyone was shocked!

Including Master Ren himself!

“Listen, I have already consecrated this Feng Shui bottle again…” Huang Xiaolong gave a sinister smile. “Inside this bottle, there are many wandering spirits, do you want to see?”

After saying that, Huang Xiaolong directly clamped the bottle stopper and pulled it out in one swift move!

Pop

The stopper popped open!

“Hee-hee Hee-hee

A terrifying scream came from inside the bottle, and the next second, several pale figures floated out of the bottle, suspended in the hall.

Huang Xiaolong had already burned a revealing symbol beforehand, allowing everyone in the hall to see clearly.

There were about 20 or 30 white shadows, men and women, old and young, all dressed in clothes from the Republican era. Their images were not too terrifying, but their pale eyes and numb expressions were chilling.

“Do you believe now?” Huang Xiaolong gave a slight smile. “But don’t be afraid, these are just wandering spirits. They have no intention of harming anyone.”

“Teacher…so… so amazing…” Lin Zicong’s admiration for Huang Xiaolong was beyond words.

“Little Long… hurry up and collect these… these… dirty things.” Lin Jing hurriedly said.

Huang Xiaolong smiled, took out his soul tube, and collected all the wandering spirits in the hall.

The hall returned to normal, with the temperature rising again.

“Here, now this Feng Shui bottle is empty, you can use it. Remember, hang it in front of your own door, with the mouth facing out, it can protect your home from ghostly disturbances. Hang it in front of your enemy’s door, with the mouth facing in, you can curse their entire family.” Huang Xiaolong directly threw the Feng Shui bottle to Lin Jianfeng. “How much do you think this is worth?”

Lin Jianfeng was overjoyed, carefully catching the Feng Shui bottle, and said loudly, “Such a treasure, worth its weight in gold!”

In the hall, several second-generation figures of the Lin Family stood up, bowed slightly to Huang Xiaolong, and praised, “Sir, you are truly talented.”

When Lin Jing looked at Huang Xiaolong, her eyes were filled with a different kind of affection.

Master Ren’s face turned pale!
