Chapter 311 Master Flame

"He's the VIP for all the bluebloods in the north."A frown furrowed Jebediah's forehead. "Why'd the owner of this place hire a geomancy master?""Wait, you don't know? Are you from out of town?"Jebediah nodded.The man said, "Fine, I'll tell you. See the flowers?" He pointed at the parterre. It was home to peonies. Wilted peonies, however.Curious, Jebediah said, "Yeah. And they're all wilted. Peonies, I assume?""Righto, but do you know that the flowers have not wilted for a hundred years?" the man said."What? The flowers stayed in bloom for a century? Is that a joke?" Jebediah was stunned."No, sir. Do you know why the shop got its name? This is why: the parterre of peonies that haven't wilted for a hundred years—until half a month ago, that is. The boss was panicked, so he hired this guy to check things out."That answered Jebediah's question. 'So that's how this place got its name,' he mused. 'No wonder the boss hired a geomancy master to help out.'Nox said nothing, b

Chapter 312 Enraged

"Master Flame, you must help me. I'll give you a million and a half. And I'll give you everything my shop has!" Mr. Windsor buzzed with excitement."Of course. I'll make a formation to draw out the earth's negative energy and balance out the energy overflow. Your peonies will bloom again in no time," said Master Flame.Everyone was in a good mood, but then someone exclaimed, "What a load of bullcrap!"Shocked, everyone turned around and saw a regal, handsome man stepping forward. That caught their attention.Mr. Windsor glared at Nox. "Who are you, punk? What is the meaning of this?"He thought, 'I spent so much time and money to get Master Flame here. I will not let anyone mess it up!'A retail assistant noticed Nox. "Boss, he's a customer!""A customer? I told you not to let anyone in today! Kick him out!" ordered Mr. Windsor shrilly."A minute," Master Flame stopped Mr. Windsor. He looked at Nox, his eyes narrowed. "You claim what I said was… nonsense. Why do you think so? P

Chapter 313 A Trick

"Do you even know the techniques involved in this work? Dragon's Expedition? Hidden Gold's Search?" Seymour stepped ahead, the air around him fierce.Nox, however, was unfazed. "I've never read anything you said, but I know you're wrong." He pointed at the parterre."This is no Positive Cell, and you can't balance the energy with negative energy. That won't make the flowers bloom. If you do that, you'll kill them faster. Go ahead, try it out."Rage had enveloped Seymour's mind. "How dare you doubt my skills! When I was already a pro, you weren't even born yet! I'll show you what it means to be a pro geomancer!"Seymour let out a roar and quickly plucked a wilted peony. He made a hand seal and started chanting under his breath. Everyone stared at him unblinkingly."He's going to cast a spell! Look!"Seymour's chanting went on for five minutes, then he roared again and made another hand seal. He pointed at the peony, and an invisible sliver of energy shot into the flower.A retail

Chapter 314 Revived

"What?""The flower's wilted again!"Everyone was dumbfounded. Mr. Windsor saw red. He glared at Nox with murder. "What did you do, you bastard? You killed my flower!" he roared.Everyone else hurled insults at Nox as well. They thought Nox was pulling something."Ignorant fools." Nox harrumphed and let them be. He then turned to the silent Seymour. "What about you? Do you think I did this?"Seymour was at a loss for words. That 'spell' he used to revive the peony was just a trick. It wasn't easy to revive a wilted flower, after all."You killed my peonies, and now you're threatening Master Flame? Men, kick this scum out of my shop!"The retail assistants came forward. Since these people thought so lowly of him, Nox sighed. "Fine. You made your bed, so you're going to lie in it. Don't come to me for any help. But before I go, I'll show you what I can do."Nox stepped ahead, and a great wave of magick undulated across the courtyard and crashed on the wilted parterre. "I command

Chapter 315 A Deal

"Don't worry, the flowers won't be alive for long.""What? What's that supposed to mean?""The flowers will wilt soon after this," Nox answered."But why? I saw them blooming again." Jebediah was confused."Of course, you don't know why. The cause for the peonies' wilting stems from something underground.""Underground?""Yes." Nox's eyes shone. The moment he saw the parterre, he felt something underground radiating great heat. It was thanks to that item that the parterre was wilting.However, Nox had no idea what that item was.While Nox was in the middle of the explanation, someone shouted, "Sir, please, a minute! A minute!"Nox and Jebediah turned around. They saw Mr. Windsor and his employees coming up to them.Jebediah frowned. "You guys?"Mr. Windsor was panting heavily, but he was bowing to Nox and apologizing profusely. "I am very sorry for what I did, sir. I apologize for my mistakes. Please, forgive me." He went down on his knees.Nox said, "Finally realized your

Chapter 316 Dig It Up

Mr. Windsor was petrified with awe. The parterre's truth was a secret guarded through generations. Ages ago, his family had a formation master, and under the parterre was a formation to gather wealth.Nox saw through it when Seymour failed to. Mr. Windsor was now looking at Nox with newfound respect.His hesitation, however, prompted Nox to ask, "Are you refusing?"Mr. Windsor gritted his teeth. "N-No! I'll dig the stuff up if you keep my flowers alive.""We have a deal." Nox smiled. He had no idea what was hidden underground, but he knew it was priceless."Can you come back with me, then?" Mr. Windsor asked politely.Nox and Jebediah went back to the shop. A fearful Seymour quickly bowed to Nox. "My humblest greetings, sir. I apologize for my earlier behavior. Please do not take it to heart."Nox didn't attack Seymour; he waved him down. "I don't mind. Next time, don't pull any cheap tricks."Embarrassed, Seymour wanted to hide in a hole. He didn't argue with Nox. "I will keep

Chapter 317 Firecrystal

Everyone snapped out of their stupor and stared at the pit.Nox said, "Yes, that's right."Seymour smacked his head. "No wonder your parterre is dying. The peonies bloomed for as long as they did thanks to this formation, but it's worn out now."Seymour looked at Nox with worship. "You're right, sir. I have been mistaken since the start. I was talking nonsense. Now I see why you want this place dug up. Thank you for the lesson," he gushed and bowed to Nox.Nox kept quiet. His attention was all on the heat wave. He leaped into the air and landed on the edge of the parterre. He turned on his divine sense and looked at the black water.Moments passed, and Nox's eyes shone, a smile curling his lips. "I see." He waved his hand, and an explosion rocked the air. The black water splashed everywhere, then a purplish-brown stone the size of Nox's fist appeared.The scorching heat wave came from this stone. Everyone stared in confusion."What's that?""Is that a stone?""No way. How does

Chapter 318 Going Home

No one had seen a formation master setting up a formation before, not even Seymour or Jebediah. They watched Nox with unabashed excitement.Nox stepped ahead and looked at the worn-out formation. One look, and he knew which part was broken. Being too old, the earthly energy condensed in this position conflicted with the formation.That conflict sent the earthly energy shooting up. The firecrystal's heat energy couldn't keep the earthly energy in check. The leak was the reason the peonies started dying.Nox quickly made three formation seals. Winds howled, and invisible energy started to work its magic. The worn-out position of the formation started to heal itself.A moment later, Nox waved his hand. "The formation is complete!"The formation was repaired, and the heat wave disappeared into thin air. Seymour was beside himself with excitement. He was in this line of work for nearly thirty years, and this was his first time seeing someone repair a formation in an instant."He repai

Chapter 319 This Place Is on Fire

The firecrystal was purplish-brown and resembled a marble. If it weren't for the energy contained within, most people would think it was just a marble."Didn't know Riverton had something like this." Nox was staring at the firecrystal, his eyes glimmering.Firecrystals could be used to make some rare artifacts, but Nox didn't need it. He just wanted to make a protective item for Queenie. "And I choose you. I can make a pendant out of you. It'll shield Queenie from regular harm."Nox's eyes twinkled, and he started refining the component. The firecrystal was the size of Nox's fist, and within it was its real essence—the power of fire. He would have to refine it down to its purest form if he wanted to make a protective item.He also had to carve some runes on it to make it work. Thus, he tossed the firecrystal into the air, and it started to spin. He then made some hand seals and pointed at the firecrystal.A golden sliver of magick shot into the firecrystal, and a scorching wave of

Chapter 320 The Shrunken Stone

Dragoncourt was subjected to intense heat for a whole day. A lot of trees wilted in the process, but Jebediah and Thalia were hit the worst.The estate felt like a big sauna cranked up to eleven halfway through. They were drenched in sweat, and the heat almost suffocated them."The heat's killing me! I can't take this anymore!" Thalia screamed as she ran down the mountain.Jebediah thought his skin was getting crispy. He wiped his sweat and looked at the mountain in fear. "Dear gods. If this keeps up, the mountain's going to melt."Powerful heat waves blasted forth from Nox. He was sitting cross-legged, his hair billowing in the air. Around him was a beam of light as burning-hot as a blaze. Before him was the firecrystal, radiating heat.After a day of refinement, the firecrystal was now the size of a thumb, its surface a fiery red color. The firecrystal hovered before Nox.A long time later, Nox's eyes snapped open, and beams of gold shot from his eyes. "Come back!" He raised hi
