After Liang Tianxin left, Mi Ding Cheng came to me. He looked even more respectful than before. He invited me to ride in his car and return to the Mi family's manor with him.
Although Mi Ding Cheng was a wealthy man, his car was low-key. It was just an ordinary black Cadillac.
However, after I got in, I realized how extraordinary the car was.
It was obviously not an original car. The interior of the car had been modified to be extremely comfortable. From the thick steel plates on the body, I guessed it was a bulletproof car.
It was normal. Hong Kong had many cases of wealthy men being kidnapped. A wealthy man like Mi Ding Cheng had to be cautious.
On the way back, Mi Dingcheng sat next to me, and we chatted politely and politely.
He knew a lot about Metaphysics and talked about the famous figures in the world from time to time.
From our conversation, I found out that he was old friends with President Gu and Yang Shilong of the Metaphysics Association.
Especially President Gu. Every time he went to the mainland, he would meet President Gu. He had even asked for a few protective talismans from President Gu.
However, when I mentioned President Gu, Mi Ding Cheng's face became gloomy. He sighed and told me that when the Mi family was in danger, he had contacted President Gu. However, after contacting him, he learned from the Metaphysics Association that President Gu had passed away a few months ago.
"Brother Gu and I are about the same age. He cultivates the mystical arts of the Immortals. I thought that after I turned into a pile of bones, he would still be alive. I didn't expect that he would pass away after not contacting me for a few months. Sigh …"
Mi Ding Cheng heaved a long sigh.
Although President Gu and I didn't get along well, he was still an old friend. Moreover, he had died in the Royal Tomb of the Shang Dynasty. Thinking back on what had happened, I felt emotional.
After chatting for a while, Mi Ding Cheng asked me curiously, "Grandmaster Zhou, you have such great achievements in Fengshui at such a young age. You must have an extraordinary teacher.
May I know who your teacher is? "
I shook my head. "I've only been interested in Metaphysics since I was young. I've studied hard and learned a little bit. I've never had a teacher."
Mi Ding Cheng was shocked. "Grandmaster Zhou, you're a genius. You've learned so much on your own. I admire you."
I faintly nodded and didn't say anything else.
Although I didn't have a teacher, Mi Dingcheng's words reminded me of Elder Li of the Metaphysics Society.
Whether it was Ye Pianpian or Jiang Dongcheng, Master Li seemed to have said that he would accept me as his disciple. However, for some reason, I haven't even seen him, let alone become his disciple.
In the past, I had hoped to worship him as my master. It wasn't because I admired him or anything like that. My purpose was very utilitarian. I just wanted to find a backer.
However, after dragging it out until now, I also have the power of a Heavenly Master, which is enough for me to protect myself. Naturally, the matter of acknowledging a master is meaningless.
However, I didn't know why, but whenever I thought of Mr. Li, I couldn't help but sigh.
With this inexplicable thought, I followed Mi Ding Cheng to the manor of the Mi family.
Mi Ding Cheng was the richest man in Hong Kong. Of course, he was the focus of the media. His Mi family's manor was very famous in Hong Kong. I often read about it in the newspapers when I was in the mainland. It was said that it cost more than one hundred million US dollars and covered an area of twenty thousand square feet. It was one of the most famous mansions in Hong Kong.
When I first read about the Mi family's manor in the newspaper, I was still a high school student. Back then, I had never thought that I would be able to visit this place one day.
After I got in, I looked around with interest.
Unlike the low-key car, the Mi family's manor was very high-profile. In Hong Kong, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, a huge green manor itself was an indescribable luxury. Under the cover of the green, a compact Western-style building was located in the innermost part of the manor. On the other side of the building was a golden beach and a blue sea.
Inside the manor, there was a swimming pool and a tennis court. On the other side, there was a small golf course. The scenery was really beautiful.
Mi Ding Cheng saw me looking around. It seemed he was interested in the manor. He led the way and showed me around. Then, he took me to his mansion and brought me to the room he had prepared for me.
After entering the room, I took a look. It was indeed the best guest room Mi Ding Cheng had mentioned.
The 'guest room' he had mentioned wasn't just a room. It was a spacious, two-story Western-style suite.
The lower floor was covered with a warm woolen carpet. There was a fireplace on the west wall, and a flame was burning. The entire room was warm and cozy.
The upper floor was naturally the bedroom. It was relatively smaller, but the wall on the outside was a complete floor-to-ceiling glass window. When the curtains were opened, the view was all blue. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the scenery was beautiful.
I pushed the window open and took a deep breath of the sea breeze that had a slight fishy smell. My mood improved a little.
Then, I leaned back and sat on the American-style sofa behind me. I waited in silence.
The person I was waiting for was Liang Tianxin.
Although he had given me the two Seven Star Mugwort Tree Leaves for no reason, judging from the mysterious smile on his face when he left, he was obviously plotting something.
That was why I had told Mi Ding Cheng that I wanted to stay at his place for Liang Tianxin to hear.
Tonight, Liang Tianxin would come to find me.
With this thought, I turned to look at Mi Ding Cheng's mansion. I couldn't help but smile wryly.
If Liang Tianxin came tonight, there would be a fierce battle. At that time, I didn't know if the Mi family's mansion would be destroyed or not.
It wasn't that I wanted to trick Mi Ding Cheng, but Hong Kong was densely populated. Except for the mansions of wealthy merchants, it was hard to find a place as spacious as this one.
I could only think that I would try my best to lure Liang Tianxin to the golf course when the battle started.
With this thought in mind, I curled up on the sofa and adjusted my body's energy while paying attention to the situation around me.
Ever since I had comprehended the eighth step of the Nine Star Heavenly Dipper, I had the Clear Insight ability. Not only could I see through other people's cultivation base, but my divine sense was also much more sensitive than before.
Even if Liang Tianxin had the cultivation base of a Heavenly Master, he wouldn't be able to escape my senses if he showed up.
However, the strange thing was that even though I had been on guard for a whole night, nothing had happened. Liang Tianxin didn't show up at all.
Early the next morning, when the sunlight shone through the French window, I got up and frowned, trying to figure out what was going on.
What was Liang Tianxin up to?
No matter if it was because of his son's death or the fact that I had stood him up, or even the fight for the Seven-Star mugwort leaves this time, as a Heavenly Master, there was no reason for him to let me go.
But why did he just disappear like that?
No matter how hard I thought, I couldn't figure it out. I had to put it aside for the time being.
Soon, the Mi family's housekeeper came and knocked on the door politely, bringing us a nice breakfast.
Not long after we finished eating, Mi Dingcheng appeared in front of my room again. He looked a little tired and told me that he had discussed with the government last night about taking back that piece of land. Although the procedures hadn't been completed yet, we could start today to deal with the matter of the astral energy passage.
Since I had agreed to do it, I didn't have any reason to refuse. Moreover, I needed his cooperation in the matter of the Seven-Star mugwort leaves. If I wanted to take it, I had to give it to him first.
So, I drove with him and went to the old beggar's grave for the second time.
The first time I came here, I just checked the geomancy of the surroundings to analyze the meaning of the Heavenly Dipper Tiger Palm's layout.
This time, I understood that this old senior had received a favor from him. When I looked at the grave that was situated in the middle of the ominous geomancy layout, I felt a bit of respect for him. I clasped my hands and bowed to him a few times.
Mi Ding City's thoughts were similar to mine. He had even specially brought nine-colored offerings. After arranging them, he knelt down and kowtowed nine times. Each time, he kowtowed heavily on the ground to show his sincerity.
