The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

This herb was originally the size of a fist, and its color was as white as snow.

But now it looks like the rootstock has become almost as thin as a thread, and the pistils on it have a kind of dilapidated dark gray color.

"The real show is about to begin! Master Du is about to reveal his true skills!"

At this moment, many people were silently reciting something in their hearts.

Then, Du Chong casually plucked the herb, and with his other hand, he stretched out several fingers, seemingly gesturing something.

"This is a magic array being formed! Seeing it today makes all the hiking in the mountains worthwhile!"

Li Guozheng, who was standing to the side, was now starting to take it a step further. Although he used to be very superstitious about feng shui, his understanding of it mostly came from what others told him, and he had never actually seen it with his own eyes.

But now, seeing Du Chong's expression and gesture, he suddenly noticed a change in the airflow around him.

"Could it really be the effect of the magic array?"

Li Guozheng had heard rumors of forming magic arrays with one's hands, but people with this skill were extremely rare; even among these feng shui masters, it was difficult to cultivate one.

Unexpectedly, Du Chong actually mastered it at some point.

The more this happened, the more resentful Li Guozheng became about what had just occurred. Offending such a master-level figure because of some complete nobody—wasn't that a terrible loss?

Thinking of this, Li Guozheng's gaze toward Fang Yun became even more hostile.

"Once this is all over, I'll definitely have to deal with this kid properly, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to Master Du."

After a short while, the medicinal herbs that Du Chong had just been holding, which had been drooping, suddenly seemed to be infused with the essence of life and began to rise up little by little.

"This is……"

Everyone stared wide-eyed, unable to believe it.

In Du Chong's hands, this dying herb actually began to slowly recover.

Although it was only one flower, the skill involved was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"After this incident, Master Du's position in the feng shui world will probably be moved up again."

Many people sighed inwardly, thinking that in the world of Feng Shui, apart from a few mysterious masters who rarely appeared, Du Chong was probably the most respected figure on the surface.

Chen Xiaonan and Li Jiaying were also stunned. Du Chong's performance made it impossible for anyone not to believe what he said.

In this situation, Fang Yun appeared extremely embarrassed and ridiculous.

"Maybe he's really not good at this kind of thing..."

Chen Xiaonan felt a burning sensation on her face. After all, she was the one who brought the person, and she didn't know how to explain things to Li Jiaying, who had even been scolded by her grandfather because of her.

"Forget it, I'll just take out some of my family's treasures to apologize to them later."

Chen Xiaona had already made up her mind.

"How about it, young friend? Is my move impressive enough?"

Once the herb had fully returned to its original form, Du Chong stopped. Judging from the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, it was clear that even for someone of Du Chong's strength, performing this supernatural power was quite difficult.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to Fang Yun's face again, and they were very curious about what kind of expression he would make.

· ·········Request flowers· ···

"Fang...why don't we apologize to this master and then go back?"

Chen Xiaonan walked to Fang Yun's side and whispered something.

Fang Yun didn't speak, but instead shook his head.

"You can save this one flower, but can you save the whole garden?"

Fang Yun said calmly, seemingly not quite agreeing with this.

Du Chong was somewhat annoyed; this was a typical case of nitpicking and getting stuck on trivial details.

Li Guozheng, who was standing to the side, could not tolerate Fang Yun continuing to make a scene, and he coldly shouted, "Guards!"

....... . .......

As the voice rang out, several men in sharp suits leaped out from a corner of the mansion.

Just by looking at their physique, you can tell they've received professional training.

Given Li Guozheng's status, how could he possibly not have bodyguards by his side?

Seeing Li Guozheng's signal, the bodyguards all rushed towards Fang Yun.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

Chen Xiaonan cried out in panic, and was about to draw her weapon to defend herself. But Fang Yun reached out and patted her shoulder, telling her to step aside.

"Alright, since you all understand, then today I will show you what true magic is!"

"How dare you talk so arrogantly! Take him down!" Li Guozheng shouted again.

Just as Fang Yun raised his right hand as if to form a hand seal, the bodyguards were less than two meters away from him. In just one more second, they could grab him.

"drink!"

In that split second, Fang Yun uttered a spell, the sound so real yet ethereal that it left everyone momentarily stunned.

Chapter 380 The King of Herbs

At this last moment, all the bodyguards suddenly stopped. Not only them, but also the onlookers, including Du Chong and Li Guozheng, were all staring wide-eyed and stunned.

Because right before their eyes, an incredible scene was unfolding.

Beneath Fang Yun's feet, the withered herbs began to spread out like waves, with Fang Yun's feet as the axis.

Wherever it went, the herbs seemed to have been given a revival potion, and their originally listless expressions all lifted their heads.

"What...what's going on?"

Everyone was filled with disbelief; "July 17" simply couldn't believe their eyes.

"Today I'll show you what true magic is!"

Among these medicinal herbs, Fang Yun stood there, the mountain breeze ruffling his hair. At that moment, Fang Yun looked like a radiant and transcendent master.

"This is truly... the king of all herbs!"

The first to speak were the agricultural researchers, who usually value research and breakthroughs in these plants the most.

Seeing this today almost completely overturns all their previous research findings.

If Fang Yun's performance today is like the airplane and rocket technology of the new century, then their current situation is at best like a unicycle.

At this moment, Chen Xiaonan's eyes were also filled with excitement. After taking a deep breath, Chen Xiaonan's worries were finally swept away.

Li Jiaying, standing to the side, was now starry-eyed; she had never seen such a charming young man in her entire life.

"He's so handsome!" Li Jiaying couldn't help but exclaim.

"Hey, hey, hey, stop being so infatuated. Don't forget, I'm the one who brought him here." Chen Xiaonan couldn't help but nudge Li Jiaying's shoulder when she saw her like this.

"How are you going to thank me this time? We've suffered quite a bit of injustice here."

Hearing this, Li Jiaying's face turned somewhat embarrassed. This person was clearly very capable, and they almost kicked him out. This was really not right.

Meanwhile, Du Chong and a few others had surrounded Fang Yun, but their faces were dazed, and no one dared to utter a sound.

"So it was a Celestial Master in person. We were very presumptuous."

Du Chong finally managed to utter a sentence, but when he thought about his previous magical techniques, he realized that it was not just showing off his skills in front of an expert, but rather a self-humiliation.

Li Guozheng's expression was also quite unpleasant. Although he had some influence in the secular world, he was certainly at a disadvantage against a master like Fang Yun.

"This... Master Fang's presence at my humble abode today is truly a blessing for the Li family."

Li Guozheng finally spoke, then looked at Li Jiaying and said, "Jiaying, why don't you take Master Fang inside to rest first!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiaying stood next to Fang Yun with a pitiful look on her face. At this moment, it would be very awkward for Fang Yun not to give her face.

After shaking his head, he had no choice but to follow Li Jiaying into the back room. As for Chen Xiaonan, who was following behind, Li Guozheng was all smiles, treating her like his own granddaughter.

Many who witnessed this scene secretly thought that Li Guozheng was truly a cunning old fox, playing his granddaughter card so quickly; only someone as shrewd and calculating as him could pull that off.

As for the others, they no longer have the face to communicate with Fang Yun. They were all part of the group that attacked Fang Yun just now, and it would be too shameless for them to ask for his favor now.

"Mr. Li, I hope you can introduce me to Master Fang in the future."

Everyone clasped their hands in a fist salute and then left one by one.

As for Du Chong, he was still standing there. He knew that Fang Yun probably didn't want to see him right now, but seeing such a great master right next to him, it would be really frustrating for Du Chong if he couldn't exchange a few words with him.

Thinking of this, Du Chong glanced at Li Guozheng, who smiled faintly and said, "Master Du, don't worry, I will coordinate if possible."

Du Chong nodded, then waved his sleeve and left.

Li Guozheng naturally dared not offend Du Chong, after all, the other party was a master he could invite. As for Fang Yun, no matter how capable he was, if the other party insisted on remembering the humiliation for a few days and ignored him, there was nothing he could do.

1.3 "Now, we can only try to calm him down with Jiaying first."

Thinking of this, Li Guozheng waved and called the butler over.

"Li Fu, quickly call home and tell them I'm inviting a distinguished guest over. Tell them to redecorate the house and bring out the best wine."

"Yes." Li Fu nodded and went out to carry out his duties.

Soon, the once bustling herb garden suddenly became deserted.
