Suddenly, Amelia smiled at him.

“You don’t really think I just recited that message to you for no reason, do you?”

The delivery man froze. He seemed to have realized something, and his body jerked as he tried to retreat.

But Amelia didn’t give him the chance. “Even though it’s the same kind of Earth Binding Spirit, inside the Earth Binding Formation, the formation’s master is someone that no bound spirit dares to mention.”

“Because once you anger the formation’s master, the consequences are unimaginable.”

“But here you are, so bold. That means you’re not afraid of the formation’s master.”

“Because you know, as long as you’re in this place, she won’t appear.”

Amelia didn’t give him a chance to retreat, continuing, “You killed someone but faced no punishment. Instead, the dead girl was talked about for years. To this day, you’re still using your identity to gain sympathy.”

“The Earth Binding Formation can trap many spirits—not just dead ones, but living ones, the wrongfully dead, and ev

    Rowan glanced around, confused, not quite understanding what was going on.Then, from the corner of the room, a voice—soft, almost a whisper—suddenly said, “Thank you.”It was a girl’s voice, gentle and low, as though spoken right next to his ear.Rowan felt a chill run down his spine and immediately ducked behind Amelia!Carl shot him a glance, his eyes full of disdain and coldness.At this point, Rowan didn’t care about offending anyone. He was scared—what if there was more danger? “Amelia, what’s going on?”Amelia ignored him, her eyes instead fixed on the television in the living room.On the screen, the delivery man’s face was panic-stricken as he moved the girl. While bending down, the keys fell out of his pocket.Amelia noticed the moment and turned her gaze back to the empty space. Her voice was calm: “You’ve taken your revenge, now it’s time to release the resentment. This formation requires you to willingly let go.”In response, the cup on the table shook and the images on t

    Clearly, she didn’t want to bring him.Carl raised an eyebrow, his dark, captivating eyes turning to Rowan, who stood beside him. “How about you go out for a walk too, Mr. Fisher?”“No, no!” Rowan quickly shook his head. “Master, let’s just listen to Amelia and stay here with Aunt Ruby. It’s too chaotic outside!”Carl absentmindedly fiddled with the prayer beads on his wrist. He didn’t speak, standing in the half-light, his expression unreadable.He had more questions than Rowan.For example, why did the delivery man seem to know him?Outside, the night had grown even darker.Countless trapped souls were desperately trying to escape.But the benevolent spirits were being maliciously suppressed, large swaths of them ripping open holes to the real world.At this moment, Elijah appeared, creating a massive black fog that blocked the way, preventing them from fleeing.All the evil spirits gathered above.The underground, however, was empty, save for a sacrificial spirit altar.It looked l

    Seeing happy families made them want to bring misfortune to others.Especially those born into wealth— that old woman believed such people were the perfect daughters-in-law for her son!There were no true demons in this world; it was human malice that lured evil into formation.Now that the Earthbound Formation had been broken, and the vengeful spirits were sealed in the Talisman Coin by Amelia, only an object remained—an old incense burner once used for worshiping the Earth God.Such items used to be common, but now, few people still believed in the Earth God.Amelia picked it up and placed it in her black bag—loot was loot, and there was no reason to leave it behind.Several spirits that had been suppressed underground finally surged out.One of them was still asking if anyone had seen her daughter.Amelia stepped forward. “Was your daughter the seventh child, with the surname Cromwell?”“Yes! She was kidnapped. When she was taken, she was wearing a tiger-head hat.” The spirit's con

    Meanwhile, in a suburban villa—Bang!An incense burner, placed alone on the eastern side of the study, suddenly exploded!An old man who had been absorbing fortune energy felt his face stiffen.He stared in disbelief at the shattered burner before him. His blood churned violently, and his legs wobbled—before he coughed up a mouthful of blood!Hearing the commotion, his secretary rushed to the door. “Master?”“I’m fine!” The old man steadied himself with his cane, clutching another incense burner tightly. His voice sounded as if he had aged another ten years. “Send someone to check on Zane. I need to know what he’s doing right now.”“Yes, sir!” The secretary immediately left.The old man’s expression grew grim.What was going on?That family’s fortune—was slipping beyond his control. It was returning to them!“Wait,” he added. “Find out from Ming Deng if Zane still trusts him as much as before.”He needed to know where the problem lay.With Zane’s intellect, there was no way he could

    The manager nodded. “I’ve read about it in novels—pretty amazing!”Amelia's voice was calm. “The master is wearing a Zen robe from Dragon Lake Mountain.”The manager froze. “What do you mean?”Amelia lifted her chin slightly. “A true Zen. Whoever crosses them will be unlucky.”The manager stuttered, his mouth opening and closing in disbelief. “No way, Miss Amelia, I…”“Go bring him back now. There are Zens outside novels, you know.” Amelia’s tone was relaxed. “Haven’t you seen the videos? There’s even a Zen forum happening soon.”The manager’s eyes widened. “W-what forum?”Is the world really this fantastical?“It's legitimate,” Amelia said, showing him a page on her phone. “It’s an academic event. From the looks of it, this master seems to have a high status in the Zen community.”The manager immediately turned and sprinted. He blocked the Zen master who was about to leave, panting, and said, “Master, I didn’t recognize your status earlier! You must be here for the Zen forum, right?”

    The Zen master’s eyes lit up. “Quick! Take me to him!”This young master must be the one he wanted to take as an apprentice!But…“Wait, it’s you?”In the hotel suite, the Zen master stared at Carl’s strikingly handsome face, utterly speechless. “Why aren’t you at the Jenkins family’s estate? What are you doing here at a hotel?”Amelia watched the scene with amusement.As expected, the gossip about the Jenkins family was mostly true.For example, the Jenkins family’s young master, who had such a precious life that even masters from Dragon Lake Mountain envied him.Carl coughed lightly, maintaining his refined posture and politeness. “Master Cloudwalker, long time no see. You’re as healthy as ever.”Master Cloudwalker scoffed and turned to Amelia. “Is this your young master? The one borrowing fortune from the Zen?”Amelia nodded.Master Cloudwalker chuckled twice. “He doesn’t need to borrow. He’s the Zen’s true son.”“Master.” Carl poured a cup of tea and handed it over. “You’ve misund

    Master Cloudwalker had never easily left his mountain before, mainly because the internet was so developed now, it was too easy to expose oneself. As for the sudden surge of attention, the Cromwell family’s PR department was completely baffled.What kind of unexpected fortune was this? They hadn't done anything, and yet they'd ended up trending online.To make things worse, the hotel alone had three spots in the trending topics. One of them was particularly explosive: **[Breaking News! I really won the lottery! The master’s words are true! Everyone, come stay at the hotel!](#)** Before this, the hotel’s rating had dropped to 4.3 stars.What’s worse, many people, especially those in business, had stopped choosing this long-established five-star hotel for meetings.There were even comments mentioning that the hotel’s staff was sarcastic and that guests often felt ill during their stay. Some said they had stayed at this hotel and started experiencing a streak of bad luck afterward,

    Abby, ever understanding, said, “Sister only wanted the hotel to do better, which is why she came up with such a drastic plan. Dad, don’t blame her.” “She’s been put in charge of the hotel as soon as she came back. The old man is too impatient,” Zane said helplessly, shaking his head. “As her father, I won’t hold it against her, but there are many other shareholders in the hotel. If this situation keeps escalating, I’m really worried something will go wrong. Even though Cromwell’s investment is the largest, we still can’t ignore the voices of the shareholders.” As he spoke, his phone rang again. “See? It’s another call from someone who wants me to go back and take over the hotel.” Abby glanced at her father and said, “Dad, we can handle everything else, but public opinion has a time sensitivity. If we don’t address it now, it’ll only escalate, and by then, it will be much harder to calm down.” Zane knew this well. “I’m just worried about Amelia taking responsibility. She’ll probab

    In the past, Zane might have played along with this act, but now he was drowning in his own troubles and had no time to worry about Abby’s feigned frailty."I should never have listened to you!"With that, Zane stormed out of the hospital.The moment he left, Abby grabbed her phone and opened the web. The news of the situation flipping against them was everywhere.Even in the group chat, the topic dominated, and almost everyone had tagged her."Abby, that Taoist was Master Cloudwalker! Why didn’t you tell us earlier?""Master Cloudwalker is incredibly difficult to meet. My grandfather went to Dragon Lake Mountain multiple times and never even got to see him. He still has to show him the utmost respect.""I can’t believe Master Cloudwalker was at your family’s hotel. If I had known, I would’ve booked a stay too!""Abby, my dad wants to know—can you get in touch with Master Cloudwalker? Money isn’t an issue."Suddenly, the tone of the group had changed completely.Rowan remained silent.

    "Enough!" Zane was utterly enraged, his temper flaring beyond control. "Are you trying to lose your job? Find a solution right now! Minimize the damage!"Minimize the damage? How could that even be possible?The public statement was still there, blatantly displayed for all to see. Even if the PR department wanted to delete it, netizens had already taken screenshots and spread them everywhere.Mr.Cromwell’s words about disowning his son weren’t just empty threats—they were real.Secretary Frank didn't want to hurt Zane too much, so he had kept some matters vague. But that didn’t mean Mr.Cromwell didn’t understand.He wasn’t senile enough to be deceived. His own son had tried to reclaim control of the hotel by shamelessly exposing his own daughter to the public. This made Mr.Cromwell utterly disappointed.Secretary Frank knew he was upset and asked, "Mr. Cromwell, the PR department wants to know if the corporation should intervene and seek help from mainstream media?""No need.

    This was like throwing a stone into a still pond—waves rippled instantly!Netizens were stunned.“What?! The head of Dragon Lake Mountain? A real Taoist?!”“Let me explain—Master Cloudwalker is the last remaining guardian of the sect. He’s an expert in the Art of Divination and the Five Elements.”“Damn! I know this guy! He’s on Wikipedia! A national-level expert in astronomy and geography?”“Here’s another fact—Master Cloudwalker never casually performs divinations, nor does he work for any aristocratic families. He only recently came down the mountain for a Taoist conference.”“So… Q Hotel really does have a fortune-enhancing effect?!”No one had expected such a dramatic twist.For Dragon Lake Mountain to personally step in and clarify meant there was no fraud involved.Q Corporation’s subsidiary account was now in utter chaos.“I just have one question—The new manager never said anything, so why did this Cromwell guy feel the need to apologize on her behalf?”“Can’t you see?

    Rowan understood the message—he needed to handle things privately.Amelia glanced at the chat history but had no intention of exposing Rowan. “You still hang out with them. It wouldn’t be good for you to speak up for me. Put your phone away.”Saying that, she tossed the phone back to him.Rowan, however, wanted to show his allegiance. “I was ignorant before, thinking that being in their circle made me important. But now I see things differently. Gossiping and ostracizing people isn’t right. Amelia, I’m not siding with you just because you’re powerful. After today, I’ve genuinely realized a lot.”He had lost his mother at a young age and always craved companionship. He enjoyed being surrounded by people, the liveliness of it.That was why he never lacked friends—even if he didn’t like doing certain things, he’d go along with them for the sake of his ‘brothers.’But real brothers wouldn’t hold him back, and they certainly wouldn’t push him out to take the fall.They thought having money

    "That's not entirely true. Sebastian’s stage presence is insane. If you take a photo or video with him, it’ll go viral instantly.""The the Cromwell family is already trending. Isn’t he only loyal to his biological sister? He never acknowledges Abby. Just wait, sooner or later, he’ll be dragged down by that village girl too."Seeing this, Abby responded at the perfect moment:"Amanda, it's normal that Sixth Brother doesn’t recognize me. I’m just the Cromwell family’s sponsored student, after all.""What do you mean just a sponsored student? Aunt Ruby almost lost her mind back then. If it weren’t for you, the Cromwell family would’ve been a mess. Now this village girl waltzes in, and suddenly, they want to pretend you don’t exist? Meanwhile, she’s ruining the hotel’s reputation.""Amanda, my father has always treated me well. He’s trying to fix things now. Let’s not talk about my sister anymore."Amanda Fisher, Rowan’s cousin, had grown up with Abby. They were schoolmates from differen

    "Let's handle the situation first. Get the press release ready."After saying this, Zane hung up the phone.Inside the hospital room, Abby gazed out at the corridor, her eyes filled with malice. Seeing a nurse enter, she quickly lay back down and opened her phone.Even though Barret and Rowan were no longer active in the circle, making things less lively than before, news of the hotel trending online had still been shared in the group chat. Someone tagged her:"Abby, isn't this your family's hotel?""Why would they use such a marketing tactic? If I hadn’t stayed there before, I might have believed it!""Who's the new person in charge? Tell Uncle Cromwell to fire them—this is humiliating."A smile tugged at the corners of Abby's lips, but she quickly masked it with a seemingly concerned response:"Don't say that. My sister just returned and doesn’t understand the market yet. Making small mistakes is normal."The group chat immediately became more active."Your sister? The one the Cromw
