Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167: Scamp of 166 Cities (7) Two More

Although the Ye Family had many lost heirs scattered abroad, few were as wretched as Ye Shaohua.

Ye Shaohua was utterly orphaned and, furthermore, had been schemed against.

But it was different for the fourth lady and others; their parents were still alive. They simply hadn’t found out about the Ye Family. There were no wastes in the Ye family; these people could live decently as long as they found a prosperous place to settle down.

"The Young Master won’t mind these matters," Uncle Ye could see the underlying meaning in the fourth lady’s words, but he couldn’t be bothered with the tricks of these girls.

In the following days, the second lady and others took their compasses and followed a group of masters out to survey daily, always in a hurry.

Ye Shaohua occasionally learned from the fourth lady that the number of family members retrieved was not small; including herself, there were six, with five of them being females.

Since the fourth lady studied Feng Shui with her parents, she knew quite a number of people, while almost no one paid attention to Ye Shaohua.

Everyone frowned upon seeing her holding a book on the origins of Feng Shui. The Ye Family was destined by heaven; even a three-year-old child in the family could detect Yin Qi and Feng Shui Arrays, but Ye Shaohua was a bit too out of the ordinary.

It wasn’t until the third day that the Young Master of the Ye Family arrived.

The elder brother of the Ye Family did not come alone; he also brought a close friend, but this friend’s presence was so elusive that not even Uncle Ye or the esteemed second sister had met him.

As the elder brother, meeting his sister for the first time—even though she was not his blood sister—he still had to bring a meeting gift, "These are two talismans I sought from the head of Qingyang Daoist Temple."

In their line of work, they often accumulated a great deal of karmic obstacles from peering too much into the Heavenly Secret, and tragic fates such as the Five Calamities and Three Lacks were not uncommon.

The so-called Five Calamities referred to "widowed, spouseless, orphaned, solitary, and disabled."

The Three Lacks were "money, life, and authority."

"Leaking the Heavenly Secret" would incur some karmic obstacles, one might end up with bodily disabilities or a lack of familial closeness, or maybe live a life mired in poverty without longevity.

One would always suffer from one of these Five Calamities and Three Lacks.

But there was a reason why the Ye Family’s incense had burned for so many years without interruption; the heirs of a large family always had some reported magic artifacts or methods to conceal the Heavenly Secret.

The elder brother of the Ye Family glanced at his third sister; he had heard from Uncle that this third sister had been distressed since childhood and was now learning Feng Shui. He heard she was very hardworking and obsessed.

The elder brother didn’t care about these things.

The path of Feng Shui Celestial Masters was already in decline. Although Ye Shaohua’s parental generation had a strong aura, he was not at all afraid that Ye Shaohua would pose any significant threat to him. In the Feng Shui World, many people amounted to little in terms of contribution to Feng Shui; Ye Shaohua was already starting very late, and he truly didn’t think she would be more remarkable than others.

"The room at the far end of the second floor belongs to my friend; he enjoys silence. Don’t go upstairs and disturb him if it’s not necessary," instructed the elder brother before letting everyone rest for the night. They still had to help others move an ancestral grave up the mountain the next morning, "and do not come out at night, no matter what happens."

Because of this warning, everyone went to bed early, even the fourth lady had no chance to speak to Ye Shaohua.

Uncle Ye brought many books for Ye Shaohua.

There were many miscellaneous writings in the Feng Shui World; there actually weren’t many serious books, and a common person wouldn’t understand much about Feng Shui from these writings.

But Ye Shaohua was different. Not to mention the books she had purchased within the system, every single one would be treasured by the Feng Shui World if brought into this realm, let alone the mysterious talismans that could not be compared with those of this world.

So she didn’t mind the books Uncle Ye brought. In fact, compared to those serious tomes, what Ye Shaohua lacked was an understanding of the Feng Shui World.

Living on the first floor, she had learned a lot about the Ye Family and the Feng Shui World from reading those books. However, as for the enemies of the Ye Family, she was still clueless; the events of those years were simply not recorded.
