The Feng Shui Treasure Appraiser

243: Chapter 243 The Sun and Moon Shining BrightlyLiu Dacheng let out a soft snort. ”Hand over Huang Jianyong’s treasure, and only then will you be qualified to sit before me. Otherwise, there will be no place left for you to stand in Quancheng.”

”Boss Liu, you won’t give me any face at all?”

”Where do you get off asking for face? Your hair hasn’t even fully grown in yet, and you have the nerve to talk about face?”

”Boss Liu, I haven’t offended you, have I? Why be so aggressive and speak such foul words?”

”Haven’t offended me?” Liu Dacheng suddenly burst into laughter. ”Do you know my relationship with Huang Jianyong?”

”I don’t. Please enlighten me.”

”Huang Jianyong was my sworn elder brother,” Liu Dacheng stared at Han Jingyang and said coldly. ”You killed him; that was because his skills were inferior, so I won’t pursue that. But you stole his things, and I must take them back. Han Jingyang, it’s only for the sake of Zhang Zhiyang and Shen Yuhai that I’m giving you a chance to hand them over voluntarily. Otherwise, you and your two women will have to hand them over on your knees to survive, understand? Don’t throw back the face I’m giving you!”

Han Jingyang laughed out of extreme anger. ”Liu Dacheng, considering you’re a senior, I’ve been speaking to you politely, but is this how a human talks? Is this how a human acts? I’ve been in here this long, and you haven’t offered a seat or tea, yet you spout such arrogant nonsense and slander me. Even if I were just an ordinary person, I couldn’t let you bully me like this, could I? Everyone has a temper. Do you really think I’m afraid of you? Also, make it clear: who stole your things, and at what time and place did they steal what from you?”

At this point, he took a step forward, leaning his hands on the coffee table and looking down at Liu Dacheng. ”If you don’t make it clear, this matter won’t end here!”

After a pause, he stared into Liu Dacheng’s eyes and said word for word, ”Liu, there’s a price to pay for throwing mud at me!”

Liu Dacheng rolled his eyes. ”Who the hell do you think you are? You dare to threaten me?”

Han Jingyang was furious. ”Liu, don’t throw back the face I’m giving you!”

Liu Dacheng curled his lip. ”If you steal, admit it; if you’re beaten, stand straight. Hand the things over honestly, and I can still leave you a bit of face. Otherwise, I’ll skin you alive and parade you through the streets so everyone can see the true face of the metaphysics genius who shook Quancheng.”

Han Jingyang suddenly calmed down.

This Liu Dacheng had come with ill intentions.

On the surface, it was for Huang Jianyong’s treasure, but the three of us had been in the room for so long, and this man was only interested in talking big. His tone was forceful and his words were vicious, yet there was no sign of him making a move.

What did this mean?

It meant he had ulterior motives.

At the very least, Liu Dacheng had no intention of striking first.

Was he trying to provoke me?

Or...

Thinking of this, Han Jingyang’s expression softened, and he cupped his hands. ”Boss Liu, I have no interest in a war of words with you. If you wish to continue slandering me with empty words, then so be it, but I won’t stay to keep you company. Farewell.”

With that, he turned to leave.

Shi Xiaoya and Liu Jing stared fixedly at Liu Dacheng, protecting Han Jingyang as they slowly backed away.

Just as the three were about to exit, Liu Dacheng roared, ”Stop!”

As he spoke, he slammed his palm down hard on the sofa.

*Slap!*

The mountain of flesh shook, making for a comical sight, but the power revealed the moment Liu Dacheng’s aura erupted was terrifying enough.

Han Jingyang whipped his head around to see that the maitreya buddha nurtured within Liu Dacheng’s body had already left it. It flew in mid-air, expanding until it was three or four times the size of Liu Dacheng. The Maitreya image, condensed from golden Qi like a golden mountain of flesh, stared at him with a face full of wrath, pouncing forward and swinging a fist downward.

Holy crap!

Han Jingyang was shocked!

This powerful?

Fortunately, ordinary people couldn’t see it.

If they could, they’d be scared to death.

Looking at the golden mountain of flesh crashing down on him, Han Jingyang remained unfazed and gave a light shout: ”Sun and Moon Overhead.”

In the next instant.

A sun with blazing radiance condensed in mid-air.

On the opposite side, far from the sun, a crescent moon also quietly appeared, emitting a faint glow that seemed insignificant before the brilliance of the sun.

But at the moment the golden Maitreya smashed toward Han Jingyang, that inconspicuous crescent moon flew toward the golden Maitreya like a meteor, instantly sinking into its plump forehead.

The golden Maitreya instantly froze on the spot.

On the sofa, Liu Dacheng also directly spat out a mouthful of blood.

However, it wasn’t over yet.

The sun in mid-air moved as well, crashing down with intense light directly onto the head of the out-of-control golden Maitreya.

Then, the golden Maitreya silently exploded, turning into a large cloud of scattered golden Qi.

Liu Dacheng spat out another mouthful of blood and, under Hua Baitou’s terrified gaze, collapsed onto the sofa without a word, unconscious.

The mountain of flesh crashed down.

Han Jingyang, meanwhile, was overjoyed and summoned the Chaotian Temple without a second thought.

The Chaotian Temple, which had been heavily damaged by Tian Chunming, was very weak. After resting for a few days in the shikigami token, it had only slightly improved. Seeing the golden Qi drifting in the air, its eyes lit up and it pounced, opening its mouth and inhaling a huge gulp like a whale swallowing the world.

The small snake in the hands of the Chaotian Temple followed suit, opening its mouth and inhaling vigorously.

In just over ten seconds, half of the scattered golden Qi had been sucked away.

Seeing this, Han Jingyang’s rage vanished, and his mood, which had been soured by Liu Dacheng, improved significantly.

This harvest was quite bountiful.

Once the Chaotian Temple absorbed all the golden Qi, it would not only recover to its original level but might even become stronger.

With the Chaotian Temple in its full state, there would be more security when going to Xipo Village to dig for treasure.

However...

Should he clean him out completely?

If it were all absorbed, Liu Dacheng’s entire cultivation would be completely ruined. A lifetime of effort would go down the drain, and he would become a total ordinary person.

At that point, given Liu Dacheng’s physical state, he wouldn’t live well even if he didn’t die; living would be a form of suffering.

Should he give him a break?

Han Jingyang wasn’t that cold-blooded after all. He pondered whether to leave Liu Dacheng some golden Qi; even if only a tenth remained, Liu Dacheng wouldn’t be completely crippled.

At that moment, the unconscious Liu Dacheng slowly opened his eyes. While spitting blood, he tremblingly extended a finger toward Han Jingyang.

Receiving the command, Hua Baitou nodded heavily and suddenly pulled a longsword from beneath the sofa. He rushed toward Han Jingyang as fast as the wind, his movement extremely quick and his sword techniques exceptionally sharp.

Seeing this, Liu Jing pulled out her war blade and stepped forward to meet him.

In an instant, the flashes of blades and swords were like swirling snowflakes. The dense clanging sounds were continuous and almost beautiful to watch, but every move was a killing blow; the slightest mistake would result in death or injury.

There was no such thing as showing mercy in cold weapon combat, because no one dared to.

Showing mercy was equivalent to seeking death.

Moreover, this wasn’t a spar; it was a life-and-death struggle.

However, Han Jingyang took one look at Hua Baitou’s distorted face and murderous intent, and the last trace of hesitation in his heart vanished. He gave the order to the Chaotian Temple.

The Chaotian Temple was overjoyed and began swallowing frantically again, gulping down all the remaining golden Qi like a whale inhaling a rainbow. Then, it happily returned to the shikigami token to begin digesting the massive amount of golden Qi.

Han Jingyang let out a light snort. ”Take a good look at your boss. His condition has flared up. If you keep fighting, he’ll lose his life.”

Hearing this, Hua Baitou glanced back. He saw that Liu Dacheng had fallen unconscious once more, his chest still and showing no movement. His expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly withdrew his move and retreated.
