The Villain's Mom Becomes Famous for Fortune-Telling and Gossip Ch. 106

"Outsiders?!" Branch Head Fang laughed at his shamelessness, "When did my senior brother become an outsider? Even the Celestial Master Hall requires a vote to remove someone. Why didn't I get that notification?"

"Well, about that..."

"Enough, all of you hold back a bit." The Fang clan leader frowned, setting down his tea cup, eyes sharp as he looked at the two arguing below, "Shouting like this in front of so many people—what kind of behavior is this?"

The Yellow Robe Taoist immediately stopped and saluted the clan leader, obediently sitting back down.

Branch Head Fang watched the two of them play their back-and-forth, panting heavily, but under the clan leader's oppressive gaze, he reluctantly sat down without saying another word.

The Fang clan leader withdrew his gaze from the two heated men and fixed it on Yu Yuan's face on the screen, his thick brows furrowing.

Such a young girl, not only connected with the underworld but somehow transformed from a notorious actress into a metaphysics master...

His eyebrows suddenly relaxed. "Could it be... possession?"

"Achoo..."

Yu Yuan sneezed, her nose slightly sore. She stared blankly at the table in front of her, her mind drifting for a while.

This sense of crisis... was someone targeting her?

Putting that aside, she rubbed her nose and looked back at the livestream where Magpie appeared.

Magpie and her sister each took down a Bagua mirror.

The bloody smell on the Bagua mirror wasn't strong; it was more of a cheap, rough paint smell that hit your nose even before you got close.

"This..." Magpie couldn't help but cover her nose, "When we first hung up this Bagua mirror, my husband and I put it up together. The smell wasn't this strong back then."

Yu Yuan said, "It's just a trick. Take a closer look—doesn't the back of the Bagua mirror look blood red?"

Magpie carefully flipped the mirror over. The originally glossy black surface had somehow faded to red.

The two of them stared at the Bagua mirror, their eyes slowly widening. Magpie looked at the clearly wrong mirror, shock and confusion filling her eyes. "Why? I invited that master over, treated him well, didn't skimp on a single penny, and was respectful the whole time. We never had any grudges before..."

Why would he treat their family like this?

If she hadn't been lucky enough today to win the only fortune-telling slot on Yu Yuan's livestream, would their family have faced ruin?

Yu Yuan watched the dark energy between Magpie's brows slowly dissipate and knew tonight's issue was resolved.

"Maybe your family's feng shui is just too good." Seeing Magpie's puzzled look, Yu Yuan continued, "Your family's feng shui is unusual, gathering yin and yang, cycling endlessly. It constantly stores yang energy and nurtures yin energy. Usually, the yang energy feeds life, but during the super yin-heavy seventh lunar month, it easily nourishes yin energy. This makes it a rare treasure ground for many evil cultivators."

Yu Yuan ended with advice, "If possible, don't stay in this house during the seventh lunar month. When you come back after that month, remember to ventilate well and burn some mugwort throughout the house. I don't recommend selling this house—its feng shui nurtures energy, which benefits both your and your husband's wealth and your child's studies."

Magpie hadn't expected the house to even benefit her daughter's studies. She nodded repeatedly in agreement. After more than two hours of fussing around, the tiredness in her eyes hadn't worsened; instead, it was gone, and her spirits lifted.

"Oh, right," Yu Yuan noticed the sister-in-law standing beside Magpie as she prepared to end the livestream, "Magpie's sister-in-law, since your husband introduced that master, remind him to stop doing business related to that master. Otherwise, he might lose more than he gains."

"Okay." The sister-in-law nodded cautiously, "Got it, thank you, Master Yu."

"You're welcome, it's no trouble."

[Wow! This livestream is so long!]

[Master Yu looks great today! Anyone want another reading?]

[Me! Me! Master, please read mine! I want to know about love!]

[Hahaha, feeling refreshed! Those who said our Master Yu's livestream is scripted—why didn't a single one show up today?!]

[Little haters, come get beaten! We have a lot of people today!]

[Honestly, I came here to roast Master Yu but ended up a fan...]

[Same here, came in hating, left as a fan (blushing)]

...

Having solved three issues in a row, Magpie wasn't short on money. Before Yu Yuan ended the livestream, she gifted 100 Carnivals in a row, but as usual, the Carnival effects hadn't finished before the livestream blacked out.

"Master!"

Zhou Yu came out of the kitchen carrying freshly made teriyaki chicken rice, flashing a big white smile. "You just finished perfectly. Liangliang and I just finished the chicken rice too."

He respectfully placed the bowl on the stone table in front of Yu Yuan. "Master, try the freshly made chicken rice."

This time, the livestream went on for two hours straight. Although there was plenty of spiritual energy in her body, Yu Yuan was definitely feeling a bit hungry.

She took the chopsticks Zhou Yu handed over and casually asked, "Liangliang went to sleep?"

"Yeah," Zhou Yu also scooped himself a bowl of rice. "Senior Brother Liangliang keeps a pretty regular schedule. He went to bed at ten thirty."

Yu Yuan nodded, and the courtyard was left with just the sounds of chopsticks clinking against bowls.

Yu Yuan finished eating a bit faster. Seeing Zhou Yu still hunched over, eating hard, she went back inside, grabbed a copy of the Great Compendium of Talismans, and tossed it to him.

"Great Compendium of Talismans?" Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, flipping through it excitedly. "Master, can I start learning to draw talismans now?"

But then he thought about how he hadn't even been able to sense the spiritual energy in the air all these days, and his excitement instantly dropped. "Master, I can't even feel the spiritual energy right now. Can I really learn to draw talismans?"

He'd read tons of fantasy novels before—main characters always had to control spiritual energy to draw talismans properly; otherwise, the talismans would just be like ordinary sheets of blank paper.

He reluctantly touched the slightly rough paper, his face showing some reluctance.

"Of course you can." Yu Yuan brought out another bowl of rice from the kitchen and sat down on the stone bench. "Draw talismans as much as you can. Even if the ones you make are useless, it'll help you get a feel for the spiritual energy in the air."
