Fang Weiyan took Silver Scale back with the bucket.

A short while later, they returned to the yamen (government office).

But then, Silver Scale saw a fiery red koi in another bucket.

"Second Sister?"

Upon seeing the bucket, Silver Scale immediately exclaimed in surprise, its tail thrashing as water from the bucket splashed everywhere.

"This is your second sister. She also faced Human Tribulation. I only found out because your mother appeared to me in a dream. However, your mother revealed a heavenly secret and has already died under the Lightning Tribulation..."

Fang Weiyan thought of this and immediately explained it to the other party again.

Upon hearing this, Silver Scale's tears immediately streamed down her face.

Strangely enough, Fang Weiyan was able to see the other person's tears while they were in the water.

But after the tears fell for a few moments, they dissolved into the water.

Fang Weiyan looked at the scene before him and felt a little amazed.

Upon seeing that the other person was a sister, Fang Weiyan immediately put her back into a bucket so that the two could reunite.

Thinking that Feng Haixuan still had something to discuss with him on Earth, Fang Weiyan immediately returned to Earth.

Cloud-Stilling Temple.

When Fang Weiyan returned, more than half an hour had passed, and Feng Haixuan and the other person were still waiting for Fang Weiyan.

Seeing that the two were still waiting for him, Fang Weiyan immediately stepped forward.

"Were you just talking about fortune telling?"

Fang Weiyan asked.

"Ah! Yes, my friend has been having a really bad run of luck lately. His company has lost tens of millions, and I don't know when they'll be able to get out of this mess."

Upon hearing this, Feng Haixuan quickly stepped forward and pointed to his friend standing to the side.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan turned his head and immediately saw Wang Youxian standing to the side.

Fang Weiyan looked this person up and down. This person was similar to Feng Haixuan, and also seemed to be a wealthy man.

"Please, Daoist priest, could you please help me with this divination?"

Wang Youxian noticed that Feng Haixuan was looking at him and, remembering what Feng Haixuan had said earlier, quickly spoke up as well.

Fang Weiyan looked at the other person, examined him carefully, and then frowned.

He used his abilities to observe the other person, but he couldn't see where the other person had any chance of turning things around recently.

The other party seems to have had a rather unlucky year.

Seeing this, Fang Weiyan thought about it carefully and realized that the only solution seemed to be to ask the koi for help.

"I can help you change your luck, but that would cost you a fee."

"Is there going to be a charge?"

Upon hearing Fang Weiyan's words, the two people beside him were stunned for a moment.

Fang Weiyan charge for fortune telling.

How did it suddenly turn into asking for money?

Isn't this just them trying to make a quick buck because they seem wealthy?

It's understandable that the two of them had such thoughts, after all, they had seen Fang Weiyan tell fortunes for so many people, yet he always emphasized that he didn't charge any fees.

But now they've started collecting money, and something just doesn't seem right.

Seeing their expressions, Fang Weiyan naturally understood what they were thinking and immediately explained.

"Those people before were all poor, so I naturally couldn't ask them for money. I just considered it doing a good deed within my ability. But your family is well-off, so you are naturally different from them."

The original purpose was to fight GG (a derogatory term for someone who has cheated), so that more people would know about this place and thus more people would come to offer Incense Offerings.

Now that the Incense Offerings is increasing, Fang Weiyan needs to consider charging them money.

Otherwise, people will eventually start to think that this Daoist priest keeps asking people to burn incense and doesn't want money.

Therefore, money is essential.

Whether it's to earn some start-up capital or to dispel other people's ideas.

Upon hearing Fang Weiyan's explanation, both of their expressions stiffened slightly.

Fang Weiyan's words were very blunt, clearly indicating that he was playing favorites depending on who they were dealing with.

After thinking about it carefully, what the other person said didn't seem to be wrong. I found it a bit unbelievable that they didn't charge me.

Now, seeing the other party asking for money feels much more natural.

"So, how much will it cost?"

Wang Youxian gritted his teeth. Listening to his friend's praise of Fang Weiyan, he believed it to some extent, especially since he really had no other choice at the moment.

The only option left is to try Fang Weiyan.

Fang Weiyan glanced at the other person, calculating how much bad luck they still had to get through, and decided how much money to charge them.

"Two million, I guess."

Two million?

The two were a little surprised by the price, but after thinking about it, it didn't seem like an unacceptable option.

"Okay, two million it is!"

Wang Youxian gritted his teeth and replied.

If two million can reverse my current downward spiral, then one million is actually worthwhile.

Seeing that the other party had agreed, Fang Weiyan nodded, "Give me a coin, and I'll help you change your luck later. It should take effect in about two or three days."

Upon hearing this, Wang Youxian quickly patted his pockets and, thankfully, found a coin.

Fang Weiyan put it away upon seeing this.

Wang Youxian, however, wanted to transfer money to Fang Weiyan at this moment.

Fang Weiyan glanced at it, "Pay me after it works."

Wang Youxian laughed upon hearing this, "What, are you worried that you can't change my luck, so you'll wait until it works before charging me?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan handed over the account directly. "I just wanted to put your mind at ease, but since you trust me so much, why wouldn't I accept it?"

A moment later, two million was deposited into Fang Weiyan's account.

Looking at the money in the account, Fang Weiyan waved to the other person, then turned and left.

Watching Fang Weiyan leave, Wang Youxian smiled instead, "I'm starting to believe this Daoist priest. He accepted those two million so readily; he must have some skill."

"Don't worry, since they were able to calculate so accurately, there's no reason they would lie to you about this."

After saying that, Feng Haixuan led Fang Weiyan and turned to go down the mountain.

Fang Weiyan cleaned up the main hall, then took out incense and candles from the storeroom and placed them on the free incense offering stall before clapping his hands and returning to Linbei County.

There are still two koi carp waiting in Linbei County.

This matter needs to be handled properly.

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan dared not delay and quickly returned to Linbei County.

Linbei County.

Fang Weiyan had just returned, and as he got closer, he heard a splashing sound coming from the bucket.

Only when Fang Weiyan approached and saw that it was Fang Weiyan did Silver Scale become a little more subdued.

"Your ability is to change people's luck, right? Come on, let's slightly change the luck of the owner of this coin."

Fang Weiyan handed over a coin and said to Silver Scale.

Upon hearing this, Silver Scale spat out a coin from her mouth. Fang Weiyan looked closely and realized that this seemed to be the coin he had tossed to her.

Is the other party still holding onto that coin?
