Chapter 65: Master Ye Takes Action

Qin Gang was stunned by Ye Chen’s words.

A ruined family and lost lives?

Was the price really that tragic?

Qin Gang’s face turned pale instantly. After a long while, he sighed and said, "I have never done anything against my conscience in my entire life; I do good deeds and accumulate merit every day. How could I end up in such a state?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Then it seems that the last time you wanted to buy that piece of yellow jade, it was for this matter?"

Qin Gang nodded. Over the past year, he had tried every method, but none had worked, until he met Ye Chen.

Last time, he thought Ye Chen only understood treasure appraisal, so he didn't pay much attention.

But today, Ye Chen had pointed out the baleful aura in a single sentence. This made him realize that Ye Chen was by no means an ordinary person, and the hope of saving the Qin family might lie with him.

Immediately, he hurriedly cupped his hands toward Ye Chen and pleaded, "Master Ye, I beg you to take action and save us!"

After speaking, he hurriedly whispered a few words to his assistant, who turned and left immediately.

Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Qin, you should resolve your family's affairs yourselves."

He had no friendship with the Qin family, and he had only met Qin Gang once before.

Furthermore, this Qin Aodong before him had offended him.

The Qin Aoxue standing to the side with a look of shock was actually quite pretty. The young girl had a great figure, with curves in all the right places, and a fiery personality—she had a bit of a "little chili" vibe.

However, whether she was pretty or not, what did that have to do with him? She wasn't his wife, and she didn't sleep with him.

Therefore, Ye Chen had absolutely no reason to help the Qin family.

But Qin Gang was unwilling to give up this excellent opportunity to save his family. He immediately bowed and said, "I beg you, sir, to show us the way!"

Qin Gang looked at Ye Chen with near-religious devotion, bowing at a ninety-degree angle, displaying an extremely humble posture.

But Ye Chen remained unmoved.

Seeing Ye Chen’s indifference, Qin Gang steeled his heart and fell to his knees with a thud.

At this moment, Qin Aoxue, seeing this, knelt down without hesitation.

She knelt before Ye Chen and pleaded bitterly, "Master Ye, I was abrupt just now and angered you. Please don't take it to heart. The fate of my entire Qin family is in your hands. I beg you to take action and save us!"

After speaking, she turned to look at the stunned Qin Aodong, slapped him across the face, and scolded, "Qin Aodong! This is all because of you! You were the one who brought that strange, dirty thing home, you dragged the family down, and you even offended Master Ye. Hurry up and kowtow to Master Ye! Beg him to help!"

Qin Aodong was truly scared out of his wits!

He never expected that the Qin family’s recent run of bad luck and his own brush with death were all caused by that piece of jade. Now that he was to blame and had angered the only Master Ye who could resolve everything, he was terrified that he would be beaten half to death by his family upon returning home.

So, he immediately knelt on the ground, trembling, and kowtowed to Ye Chen, pleading, "Master, I was wrong, Master! I was blind, I didn't know how to value my life, and I didn't know what was good for me. Please forgive me, Master, and help our Qin family. I’m kowtowing to you..."

With that, Qin Aodong slammed his head against the concrete floor, making a loud thumping sound.

At this time, Qin Gang’s assistant ran back and handed him a gift box.

Qin Gang hurriedly held it up and presented it respectfully to Ye Chen, saying humbly, "Master Ye, this is the most expensive jade bracelet from Cui Ge Xuan, priced at over six million. Please accept it, Master Ye!"

Ye Chen glanced coldly at the gift in Qin Gang’s hand. It was a top-quality jadeite old-pit ice-seed bracelet, with excellent clarity, as transparent as glass.

Although it couldn't compare to the jade necklace he had previously given his wife, Xiao Churan, as a bracelet, it was already top-tier!

The surrounding crowd stared with wide eyes. Everyone knew this bracelet; it was the most expensive one in Cui Ge Xuan, with a list price of six million.

Yet Qin Gang had actually had his assistant buy it to give to Ye Chen, and he was begging Ye Chen to accept it.

It was clear how strong his desire to curry favor with Ye Chen was at this moment!

Just what was Ye Chen’s identity?

Ye Chen’s father-in-law was also completely dumbfounded; he had never encountered such an unbelievable thing in his life...

Ye Chen looked at the jade bracelet but didn't take it. He just looked at Qin Gang with a half-smile and said, "Mr. Qin, how do you know I definitely have a way to resolve this baleful aura?"

Qin Gang said devoutly, "If Master Ye can't do it, then I’m afraid no one else in this world can!"

Ye Chen smiled indifferently. Qin Gang was indeed right; he really did have a way to resolve it.

The "Nine Profound Heaven Scriptures" contained records of this kind of baleful aura, and the methods to break it were written very clearly.

Ye Chen glanced at the jade bracelet and took it casually.

Looking at the crystal-clear bracelet, if it were worn on his wife Xiao Churan’s wrist, it would definitely look very beautiful.

As for this Qin Gang.

To be honest, he wasn't a bad person.

He just failed to discipline his descendants properly; his crimes weren't enough to warrant death.

Since he was pleading so devoutly, it wouldn't hurt to help him.

So, Ye Chen said, "Fine, since you are begging me, I will do you a favor."

With that, he accepted the bracelet.

Seeing Ye Chen accept the bracelet, Qin Gang was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to him again: "Master Ye, the Qin family can still manage to have a say in Jin Ling. After the baleful aura is resolved, if Master Ye ever needs the Qin family to do anything in the future, I will certainly do my utmost to assist you."

The surrounding crowd was in an uproar, all of them listening in utter astonishment.

The Qin family was really going all out!

Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Since that’s the case, I will help you once. It’s also because your Qin family is not destined to perish."

Qin Gang immediately kowtowed heavily and said excitedly, "Please, Master Ye, take action!"

Ye Chen asked for a piece of yellow talisman paper and cinnabar from the antique shop next door, drew a few strokes with a flourish on the paper, and handed it to Qin Gang.

"Stick this talisman on the jade stopper, take it home, and offer incense to it daily. After forty-nine days, the baleful aura will be completely resolved."

"During these forty-nine days, the family must avoid killing and bloodshed, and family members must bathe and offer incense daily. Remember this."

"I will strictly obey your words, sir!"

Qin Gang respectfully took the talisman with both hands, feeling extremely grateful to Ye Chen. He carefully stuck the talisman onto the jade stopper and wrapped it in a yellow paper package.

The moment the jade stopper was wrapped, Qin Aodong suddenly felt a lightness in his body. The restless energy throughout his body seemed to disappear, and he felt refreshed.

Qin Gang also felt the change within himself; he felt clearer and more at ease than before!

He knew that Ye Chen’s method had worked!

This made him instantly ecstatic!

Fortunately, he had found Ye Chen; otherwise, after today, the Qin family would have been headed toward a dead end!

Zhang Ermao, watching from the side, was also amazed. Seeing that Qin Gang was finished, he hurriedly leaned in with a fawning face and bowed to Ye Chen with a smirk.

"Big Brother, can you read my fortune? Can you see when I’ll be able to find a pretty wife?"

Ye Chen frowned and shook his head, saying, "If you want to marry a pretty wife, go get plastic surgery first."

Qin Aoxue, standing to the side, burst out laughing.

Indeed, this Zhang Ermao was too ugly; how could any girl possibly take a fancy to him!

On the other hand, this Ye Chen was actually quite handsome...
