“Bull s.h.i.+t, you say?”

Hearing Chen Fan repeating the unforgiving remark; Master Huang finally showed some annoyance.

After all, he was the master of the Lin Nan area, one of the very few masters that was still active in China. He had become famous twenty years ago, and by then, he had become a frequent honorable guest at the banquets of the most powerful man in China. If not for the invitation from the Dong Du City Government, he wouldn’t even think about being interested in the case.

He had given the boy some face and asked him polite questions, but he had gotten insults in return.

“Young man, who is your teacher? Haven’t he told you to respect your elders?” Master Huang furrowed his brows.

Chen Fan linked his hands behind his back and said, “Maybe I should be your elder.”

“Humph!” Master Huang could no longer hold back the anger inside of him. He snorted and said coldly: “Is that right? Let me tell you something; there are not a lot of people who dare call themselves an elder in front of me, Huang Wenze. All of those who could are well over a hundred years old. I wonder which one of those masters is your teacher?”

“Huang Wenze? The Huang Wenze of Lin Nan?” Master Wu’s face paled.

“Is he famous?” Chen Fan asked casually.

Master Wu felt the hot glare from everyone around him, he hurried to reply: “Master Chen, he was one of the top five people in the field of Feng Shui. His fame was on par with that of Zhou Daoji from Hong Kong.”

“Huang Wenze was quite a big deal; many consider him the leader of the field. ”

Before Chen Fan spoke up again, Master Huang cracked a cynical smile and said: “If you haven’t even heard of my name, I will scarcely consider you a professional.”

He shook his head patronizingly as he spoke.

“I have mistaken you for a talented disciple of a renowned sect, but turns out that you are just an amateur. I think I have overestimated you in thinking that you might have some genuinely constructive input. But I doubt that you even know what a Yang Qi Locking Ground is.”

“You are right; I am not a pract.i.tioner of Feng Shui. And indeed that I have no idea what a Yang Qi Locking Ground.”

Chen Fan nodded readily. His candidness took Master Huang by surprise.

“Ha!”

Many people around Chen Fan burst out laughing.

For someone who admitted to be an amateur in the field of Feng Shui, Chen Fan was rather generous in his criticism. The irony in it was rich.

Mu Shouqiong furrowed his brows as the teenage boy’s arrogant att.i.tude didn’t sit well with him.

He was the man of science; a firm believer in that there was no more shameful act than pretending to know what one does not.

He could have looked past Chen Fan’s young age if he was really worth his salt. However, if Chen Fan didn’t even know what he was talking about, his interruption and rude remarks would only make a fool out of himself.

“Mr. Chen, what are you doing?”

Sir Jiang Junior was shocked by the development.

He had been convinced that Master Chen was a G.o.d-like existence and therefore he expected him to know everything, let it be astronomy, geology or history. However, it seemed that he was wrong.

To save his son’s face, Sir Jiang had tolerated Chen Fan’s existence, however, by then, whatever patience he had was gone. As fire sprout from his heart, he was ready to call the police and kick the rude imbecile out of his property.

Then, he heard Chen Fan speak again.

“Although I don’t know anything about Feng Shui, I know one thing for sure.

“You are wrong.”

Chen Fan shot a glare at Master Huang and announced firmly, “You have been wrong from the very beginning. The Yang Qi Locking Ground was not the cause of the disease, and neither was the timing. If you set up your so-called Feng Shui Array, these Peonies will only die even faster.”

“Shut up!” Master Huang could no longer maintain his forbearance. He shouted at the top of his lungs.

“Have you studied I-ching?

“Can you interpolate trigrams?

“Have you read the House-Ching?

“Are you versed in the theories of the Roaring Dragon Ching and the Mystic Dragon Ching?

“Do you know what the meaning of the Shooting Stars of the Nine Palace?”

Master Huang took a step forward after each question.

In five wide strides, Master Huang arrived at the center of the courtyard. He shouted at Chen Fan, “I doubt you can tell me the names of the eight trigrams. How dare you question me?

“I, Huang Wenze had learned under Master Xuankong from the Southern Sect ever since I was seven. I have stayed with my master for twenty years during which time I learned everything about Feng Shui. When I finally enter the world as a pract.i.tioner, I have helped countless innocent people adjusting and neutralized the chaotic elements around their houses.”

“In 1987, it was I who find out the cause of death for seven owners of an apartment in Yang Dong City. I have lured the murderous Yin Ghost out of the apartment and banished it.

“In 1991, I had solved the series of mysterious car crashes on number sixteen highway. I have rearranged the Feng Shui on that segment of the road and finally harmonized the Qi. ”

“In 1995, when a ma.s.sive landslide in the Mei Lin City suddenly occurred and claimed the lives of thirty-two people in its wake. I had gone to the disastrous area and cast an Array to make sure such a tragedy will never happen again.

“In 1997, when the entire Ling Xi province was. .h.i.t by a drought, threatening the lives of millions. I rallied my fellow Feng Shui masters and spent a month to cast a costly array and successfully challenged the Water Qi into the drought area.

“I have been a Feng Shui master for over forty years, and I dare say that never once have I made a mistake. Who are you to question my credentials?”

Master Huang was seething with anger and indignation, and his list of ill.u.s.trious achievements had earned him many respectful regards from the people around him.

His past achievements were a testament to his ability and power. No wonder he had garnered such a high reputation in Lin Nan area.

“Master Huang is such a bada.s.s!”

Mu Qinqin exclaimed. Her eyes were filled with admiration.

Anyone who was able to become the cream of the crop in his profession deserved proper respect.

By then, only Master Wu and A’Xiu were still on Chen Fan’s side, since even Sir Jiang Junior had begun to have second thoughts.

“Maybe Master Chen was only good at fighting, but not an expert in the art of curing and healing.”

Sir Jiang Junior lamented.

He regretted bringing Chen Fan to his father; not only Chen Fan had made a fool of himself, but he had lost the approval of his father.

“Well said, but what you have achieved in the past is irrelevant.” Chen Fan said with a pair of half-closed eyes as if he was contemplating the secret of the universe.

“Bull s.h.i.+t!”

Master Huang shouted as fire pour out from his mouth.
