L was sound asleep when he suddenly received a call from an unknown number.
“Who is this?” L asked groggily, checking the time. It was alreadyte at night.
“Mr. Willis, can you really save my mom?” An anxious voice sounded on the other end of the line.
“Hmm?” L responded before quickly realizing who it was. “Darwin?”
“Yes! Yes!” Darwin eximed.
“You guessed right! My mom’s in trouble, can you really save her?”
Darwin hesitated for a moment before asking in a serious tone. He had gotten L’s contact information from Sam.
“I can definitely help her, but like I said before, it’ll cost 30 million to hire me again,” L replied nonchntly.
“Okay! Okay!” Darwin gritted his teeth and agreed. Even though he was angry about L’s exorbitant fee, his mother’s safety came first. He could deal with the paymentter if necessary.
An hourter, Darwin picked up L and took him to the McLaughlin family mansion. As expected of someone in construction business, the private vi upied an extensive area with exquisitendscaping that included ponds, rockeries and swimming pools – everything one could ask for!
“This is Mr. Willis?” Philip stepped out and was somewhat surprised when he saw L beside his son. He seemed taken aback by the fact that L appeared so young.
“It’s an urgent situation, Mr. Willis. My expertise won’t be enough. Please go upstairs and see what you can do,” Master Soidho said while extending a hand, hoping to see if L could handle the situation.
He pushed L toward Philip, not because he genuinely admired L, but rather to shift the responsibility away from himself. If something happened to Kristina, the Mughlin family, father and son, would not go easy on him. If L couldn’t resolve the situation either, then he’d be in trouble too.
Philip saw Master Soidho’s reaction and realized that the young man before him was likely the one his son had spoken about. However, inside Philip, he couldn’t help but have some doubts. Master Soidho had years of experience and couldn’t solve the issue, but this young man in his twenties was supposed to be reliable?
At that moment, L nodded and walked towards the small building where Philip and his wife resided. However, when he reached the front door of the small building, he hesitated for a moment. As he looked at the arrangement in front of the door, a chill passed through his eyes.
There were two ponds in front of the building, connected by two continuous streams, resembling two lively bodies of water. In the middle of the ponds, there were artificial rock formations, and various fish were swimming in the pools. At first nce, it seemed full of life, with water and mountains, appearing quite auspicious.
But when L saw these two ponds and the mirrors hanging on the front door of the building, his expression changed.
“Mr. Willis, hurry up! My mother’s condition is critical!” Darwin urged impatiently as he saw L hesitating.
As they entered inside, several bodyguards surrounded them with serious expressions. Kristinay on her bed with her hands tied behind her back; she twisted her body fiercely while making sobbing sounds like “Wu Wu”. It looked eerie and creepy!
Suddenly there was a cracking sound as Kristina broke free from her ropes.
“I want to die! Life is meaningless…” Kristina cried out while trying to hang herself again.
Several guards tried to stop her but were knocked away easily by Kristina’s strength.
“Mr. Willis, do something quickly!” Philip shouted anxiously.
“You wanted 30 million dors right? My father and I will give it to you! Do you even know what you’re doing?” Darwin added frantically beside him, “Hurry up!”
L snorted coldly before jumping out through a second-floor window onto solid ground below. Then he leaped forward towards that mirror hanging on top of their door frame and smashed it into pieces with one punch!
“What are you doing? That’s used for warding off evil spirits!” Darwin yelled suspiciously from above through an open windowpane.
“It’s done!”
“The madam is okay now!!”
Just then someone shouted loudly. Kristina who had been going crazy just moments ago passed out after L destroyed that mirror above their doorway.
Philip hurried over to check if his wife was still breathing before letting out a long sigh of relief upon finding she only fell asleep due exhaustion from all this stress – but at least she wasn’t dead yet!
After a moment, the group confirmed that Kristina was really okay and they went into the courtyard.
“Mr. Willis, thank you so much!” Philip thanked him repeatedly.
“No need to thank me. I didn’t help you for free, don’t forget about those 30 million dors,” L said nonchntly.
“Don’t worry about that. I won’t go back on my word,” Philip replied with a bitter smile.
“Mr. Willis, what happened to my mom? Why did she get better after breaking that mirror?” Darwin asked tentatively.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
Even Master Soidho looked puzzled at this point and his eyes were full of inquiry.
L sneered, “Who told you breaking the mirror would solve everything? The matter isn’t over yet.”
As he spoke, he pointed to the two water pools in front of the small building’s door. “Fill these two pools up!”
Upon hearing this request, Philip was stunned, “Why?”
He had paid a high price for hiring andscape designer specifically for these two pools and it cost almost 1 million dors! And now L wanted them filled up?
“Mr. Willis, is there something wrong with these two water pools? Water represents wealth and fish represent surplus every year. Moreover, with their connecting channels constantly flowing through them like live water… this is clearly an auspicious object! Forgive my ignorance but I don’t know what’s wrong with these ponds?” Master Soidho asked curiously.
“You guys take a closer look at these two water pools along with their connecting channels… what does it look like?” L coldlyughed as he asked this question.
Everyone present carefully examined them.
Suddenly Master Soidho’s face changed, “Crying! It looks like a man’s crying!”
L chuckled, “You still have some insight left in you! Coupled with this mirror in front of us…in geomancy terms it’s called ‘Blood Basin Reflecting Mirror’ which is an extremely vicious geomancy killing formation!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present stared intently at him.
Master Soidho suddenly eximed, “Blood Basin Reflecting Mirror! That’s right…it really is Blood Basin Reflecting Mirror! How could I not see it before?”
He revealed an expression of shame while looking towards L; his eyes no longer held any contempt but instead were filled with admiration.
“Blood Basin Reflecting Mirror?” Darwin’s eyelids twitched while Philip looked horrified.
Just hearing its name made one feel scared and felt its evil energy radiating outwards from within it!
“Absolutely, this is the Blood Basin Reflecting Mirror! I have to admit, the person who set up this geomancy killing formation is truly brilliant. Even most geomancy masters would not be able to see through it! Thanks to Mr. Willis’ sharp eyesight, he was able to see through everything!” Master Soidho eximed in amazement.
