Chapter 71: Chapter 71: With such a Protective Jade Token, who needs a master? The master spoke with a serious tone, making Josiah Garrison’s heart tighten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, it was a ghost!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, do you have a way to… deal with it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the other could respond, Josiah added, “Rest assured, Master, if you’re willing to help, the compensation will be more than fair.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged master in a Taoist robe smiled slightly at the words, “In that case, I’ll give it my best shot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he set up the array, prepared the altar, and began casting spells with full force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah had seen real masters before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day at the hospital, seeing Scarlett Jennings in action, he felt she had real skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after the incident with the recording being exposed, he couldn’t bring himself to seek her out again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the master draw a talisman, which flew to the center of the bed, Josiah felt a rush of joy, thinking the female ghost would soon be dealt with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the next second, the room’s temperature suddenly plummeted, and the flying talisman paper burst into flames mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could ask, the master beside him turned pale and hastily threw out two more talisman papers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The talisman papers rapidly burned to ashes mid-air once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master, initially with a sage-like demeanor, now lost his composure and even shouted at Josiah,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are not just one evil spirits in this mansion? Why didn’t you say so earlier?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had he known it would be this troublesome, he would not have willingly involved himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he had angered the fierce ghost residing in this mansion with his actions!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quick, let’s go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master said, pulling Josiah to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Josiah was bewildered, he understood that this master was unreliable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two rushed to the door, but just as they approached, the room’s door suddenly slammed shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Josiah felt something firmly grasp his feet, rendering him immobile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of the corner of his eye, he vaguely saw a familiar silhouette appear by the bed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the figure slowly turned as if approaching him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah’s heart leapt to his throat, and he breathed rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the female ghost getting closer, her ghastly white hand slowly reached for his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eyes wide, Josiah felt as if he would die here today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the room’s door was knocked on from outside, followed by Timothy Garrison’s voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Josiah? Are you in the room?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah felt a jolt of joy and instinctively opened his mouth to call for help; the next second, he felt a cold hand suddenly cover his mouth from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chilling, penetrating cold surged from his soles, leaving him rigid, unable to utter a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah had never felt such terror as he did now, eyes bloodshot yet his features disturbingly sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt something cold press against his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah trembled violently; tears uncontrollably streamed down, and he wanted to scream for help, but he couldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this life-threatening moment, the master next to him suddenly slashed his fingertip, flinging his arm to scatter the blood pearls, two of which landed on Josiah’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He heard a scream in his ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The icy hand covering his mouth immediately withdrew, and in this critical moment, Josiah shouted towards the door,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad! Help me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he spoke, the door was pushed open, revealing his father, who was about to leave after getting no response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the moment Timothy Garrison stepped into the room, Josiah distinctly felt the cold temperature gradually warm up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking again, the master sat on the floor, cradling his finger and mumbling,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Too fierce, this is too fierce.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had lost out on this deal today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How long would it take him to recover the spiritual energy after casting the fingertip blood like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the room’s atmosphere, he discovered the chaotic fierce ghost seemed to have vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master, however, didn’t feel relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t believe the ghost had been driven away by his fingertip blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Timothy Garrison, and his gaze landed on the jade token hanging from his neck, gradually widening his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What followed was an expression of indignation,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Garrison! I thought you sincerely invited me here, yet you said nothing truthful?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah, having narrowly escaped death, looked displeased hearing the master’s words,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you mean by that, Master?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master then pointed at the jade token around Timothy’s neck,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since you know the master who can craft such a protective artifact, why seek me? Even without me, this protective jade token would keep you safe from evil spirits!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Josiah and Timothy were both stunned and simultaneously looked at the jade token around Timothy’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the jade token Scarlett Jennings had given the Garrison Family before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they were not entirely convinced by Scarlett’s words, they wore the jade token after finding it, and indeed, misfortunes had decreased significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there were only two tokens; Timothy couldn’t always be with Josiah, so they spent a lot to find this master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought this master was no more effective than a jade token made by Scarlett Jennings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could that girl really be so capable?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, you mean if I wear the jade token, the female ghost won’t attack me like before?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah’s expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just gone through that, he didn’t want a repeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see the jade token’s spiritual energy does indicate so.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master was initially angry, feeling tricked by the family, but realizing now how rare protective artifacts were, he shouldn’t have lost his temper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being from the Mystical Sect, he wasn’t used to apologizing; instead, he softened his tone slightly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The evil spirit occupying this mansion isn’t an ordinary new ghost. While I have some skills, dealing with such an evil spirit alone is beyond my power…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you want a permanent solution, it’s best to ask the master who sold you this jade token.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master spoke honestly, and across from him, the Garrison father and son looked constipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How would they tell him the jade token wasn’t purchased?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for recent events, the jade token around Timothy’s neck might still be tucked away collecting dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timothy knew his son was troubled by nightmares and didn’t oppose seeking a master to perform a ritual at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… would they have to seek Scarlett Jennings again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Josiah was silent, pondering the same issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After last time, he wasn’t sure Scarlett would still want to help him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Isolde probably wouldn’t want him to look for Scarlett’s help again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they couldn’t find a reliable master, only one option remained…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To retrieve the protective jade token from Isolde.\u003C\u002Fp>",1141,"2026-06-10T07:18:23.777Z",1,"novelbin.me","625a458b01bf2ae680bc13cb6b8cd6e91ef954e00910196ec550d97fb6cfcf9f","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-72","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-70",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
