Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Since Master Qi said that he would not let Tang Li in, Boss Zhang would definitely not let her in.
However, Tang Li was Qi Yihan’s wife, so he wouldn’t offend her like Master Qi did.
“Fourth Madam, you see, my family has been really unlucky recently. I need Master Qi to go in and take a look to help me change my luck. Since he said that you can’t go in, please don’t make things difficult for me.”
Boss Zhang looked at Qi Yihan as he spoke. He was not afraid of Tang Li making things difficult for him, but he was afraid of Qi Yihan making things difficult for him.
Qi Yihan looked at Tang Li. He thought she would be angry, but Tang Li looked like she couldn’t care less.
“Of course, since the Master said so, I definitely won’t go in. However, before you go in, let me remind you that if anything happens inside that you can’t control, when you run out, take three steps to the left and four steps to the right. Then, run faster and don’t look back.”
Before Boss Zhang could answer, the young man behind Master Qi stopped and turned around. He said disdainfully, “If you don’t know, don’t speak nonsense. With my master here, how can anything go wrong?”
The corners of Tang Li’s lips curled up. “We’ll see.”
The young man was actually stunned by the smile on Tang Li’s face. His face blushed, and without saying anything, he turned around and went in.
Mr. Zhang did not answer Tang Li and quickly followed him in.
After entering, the sound of Master Qi shutting the door was heard.
Boss Zhang closed the door.
They stood there curious and worried and started discussing.
“What do you think is going on in there? The master doesn’t let us in.”
“Perhaps if too many people enter, the master will be distracted.”
“You can tell that this master is legit. He should be able to make Boss Zhang’s shop better.”
…
Everyone was talking at once, but Tang Li was staring at the stone lion beside her, seemingly in a daze.
Qi Yihan stared at her.
He was curious as to what she would do later.
At the same time, he was curious about how powerful she was.
The people outside waited for nearly half an hour, but there was still no response from inside the door. Then, one of the bosses got impatient.
“It’s almost time for business. How much longer is Master going to take?”
“I don’t think it’s gonna finish anytime soon. Don’t masters always take a long time to read fortunes?”
…
As they spoke, a tragic cry finally came from inside the door. Before everyone could react, clings and clangs were heard coming from inside.”
It sounded like a fight.
Some people were really curious and wanted to go to the door to listen to what was going on inside.
At that moment, Tang Li, who had been standing there silently, suddenly said, “You’d better not go near the door, or else you’ll regret it when it opens.”
These words made the two bosses who wanted to go over freeze.
At the same time, they were shocked by the unfathomable and intimidating aura she exuded.
In their minds, they were telling themselves, “Listen to her, she is right. Don’t go over.”
Just then, the commotion inside the door grew louder.
Tang Li subconsciously pulled Qi Yihan to the side.
Qi Yihan looked at the hand that was holding his wrist and his heart skipped a beat.
Tang Li quickly let go of him and stood in front of him, acting like she was protecting him.
Qi Yihan pursed his lips and remained silent.
At this moment, the door collapsed from the inside and flew out.
People standing there were shocked and subconsciously jumped to the side.
Then, everyone looked inside the door and happened to see Boss Zhang rushing out with a look of horror.
As he ran, he screamed, “The antiques in there are coming back to life! Help!”
As Boss Zhang ran, many antiques flew out behind him.
People were so frightened that they wanted to remind him, but it was too late. They could only stare at him with widened eyes.
At this moment, a voice was heard by everyone, saying, “Freeze.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the antique was stopped. Then, In the next moment, Mr. Zhang’s body was thrown out by Tang Li. The door that had obviously collapsed came back up to the doorframe.
“Tang Li.”
Everyone shuddered and came back to their senses at the same time. Then, they looked at the gloomy Fourth Master.
Qi Yihan strode towards the door.
When he reached the door, Tang Li’s voice came from inside. “Don’t come in. These things will hurt you.”
Qi Yihan stopped in his tracks.
Then, Tang Li’s voice was heard coming from inside. “Mr. Zhang, I told you that you have something evil in your store. Do you believe me now?”
Boss Zhang nodded immediately. “Yes, yes. Fourth Master… Master Tang, please help me.”
“I was not invited by you. According to what you said, I am just here meddling in your affairs…”
“No, no, no… I’m begging you right now. Please help me deal with the thing inside.”
“It won’t be cheap though.”
“It’s alright. As long as I can get rid of the thing inside, I’m willing to go bankrupt.”
Tang Li stopped talking.
But Boss Zhang was worried.
The others also became anxious.
Qi Yihan, who was standing by the door, suddenly stopped worrying.
After this woman entered, she immediately started to talk about the price. Clearly, the things inside weren’t enough to scare her.
After Tang Li made the antiques in the shop return to their original positions, she said, “You don’t have to go bankrupt. I’ll help you deal with the things here, but you have to give me some of them.”
“Alright, as long as Master Tang can help me, you can choose whatever you want.”
Satisfied, Tang Li walked in.
The layout of the antique stores here was the same with the hall in the front selling antiques, and the courtyard and storeroom at the back.
Master Qi and the young man were inside.
Tang Li walked to the door and lifted the curtain. In the courtyard, it was enveloped in chilling wind and black smoke. An ancient sword was attacking Master Qi and the young man.
Master Qi was no longer as arrogant as before. His long robe was tattered, and the horsetail whisk in his hand had long been sliced into several pieces by the ancient sword and fell to the ground. He held the talisman in his hand and kept muttering something to himself as he confronted the ancient sword.
The young man following him was so frightened that he hid behind him. When the ancient sword attacked, he screamed.
At this moment, the ancient sword sliced off the old man’s hair, finally making him panic and turn pale.
“Haha…” Tang Li could not help but laugh.
Her smile immediately attracted the attention of the two of them and the ancient sword.
The old man’s expression darkened. “Who told you to come in?”
The tip of the ancient sword was also pointed at her.
Tang Li shrugged. “I’m just here to watch the show. Please continue.”
With that said, she threw a look at the ancient sword, looking cocky and unworried as if she was not scared at all.
The ancient sword hesitated for a moment before pointing at the old man.
