While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

The dark figure seemed to sense the threat posed by the peach wood sword. It shouted, and objects inside the room flew up, blocking the path of the peach wood sword.

Its body swerved to the side.

The moment they moved, Cao Kun's voice rang out: "Finally caught you."

This was the last sound the shadowy figure heard.

The next moment, as Cao Kun reached out and grabbed the shadowy soul, a bolt of lightning suddenly shot out and struck the shadowy body.

"what!"

With a final scream, the shadowy figure vanished without a trace.

"Ding! Killed an F-rank ghost, gained 5000 merit points."

"Ding! Killed an F-rank ghost, obtained the 'Aura Observation Technique'."

"Note: The Art of Observing Qi allows one to observe the Qi of heaven, earth, and the human body, and thus know fortune, misfortune, health, and illness. Current level: Level 1, can be upgraded."

As the voice echoed in Cao Kun's mind, all the supernatural phenomena in the room disappeared.

The lights in the room were back to normal, so we no longer had to fumble in the dark.

Cao Kun reached out and grabbed the peach wood sword, which, drawn by magical power, leaped into his hand. He then snatched it away and it disappeared.

"Lightning!"

Emma gasped, hardly believing her eyes.

A bolt of lightning actually shot out from Master Cao's body.

Julia was clearly more composed: "Master Cao, that... has it been resolved?"

Cao Kun nodded: "It's resolved. You don't have to die. Look at the marks on your chests."

Perhaps they were too relaxed, because Emma and Gella stopped hiding behind Cao Kun's back and started checking him directly by tearing open his clothes.

Emma quickly exclaimed in delight, "It's gone! It's really gone!"

Gella, equally delighted, said, "Mine are all gone too."

Julia breathed a long sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Emma suddenly clutched her lower abdomen: "I'm going to the restroom."

After saying that, he rushed to the bathroom.

"I'm going too!" Gella shouted, quickly catching up.

Cao Kun looked at Julia, who blushed and said, "Master Cao, please sit down for a moment. I'll go upstairs to get something."

Julia also went upstairs awkwardly.

Cao Kun found it somewhat amusing; he knew that Julia and the other two were clearly frightened by what had just happened.

Thanks to his quick action, they didn't urinate on the spot.

Cao Kun extinguished the candle and put it away, then looked around the kitchen.

Although the ghost has been dealt with, the cups and basins that were smashed earlier are real, and they are still scattered all over the ground.

Cao Kun estimated that these things probably wouldn't be cheap.

But Julia has to take responsibility for this herself.

[By the way, the aura observation technique.]

Cao Kun's heart stirred, and he looked at the house.

In an instant, he saw the trend of the Qi.

Some experienced feng shui masters can tell whether a place has good or bad feng shui just by looking at it.

But Cao Kun, without experience, can see it at a glance.

Feng shui masters rely on experience, observing the placement of various objects, the characteristics of the objects themselves, and various directions and orientations.

Cao Kun, however, could know everything simply by sensing the qi.

It must be said that Julia's mansion is quite impressive.

Although Westerners don't practice feng shui, they do pay attention to the environment.

An environment that makes people feel comfortable is considered to have good feng shui.

Now, in Cao Kun's eyes, Julia's mansion has a very smooth flow of energy.

Moreover, it can dispel bad luck and retain good luck.

No wonder Julia was able to have such a smooth life living in such a place and win an Oscar for Best Actress.

If it weren't for Emma's own foolish decision to play the psychic game, they wouldn't normally have attracted those unclean things.

But this house is not without its flaws.

Cao Kun observed that the flow of Qi (vital energy) would be somewhat stagnant in the kitchen and southwest areas.

The kitchen is associated with the element of fire, and if the fire element stagnates, it can easily cause a fire.

The Dao Fa Ji Yao states that if the southwest direction is insufficient, theft may occur in the home, or even marital discord and infidelity.

Cao Kun thought that in 2025, Julia's mansion did indeed catch fire and be burglarized, which corresponded perfectly with this trend.

"That's really amazing."

Cao Kun couldn't help but mutter something under his breath.

"Fortunately, the southwest is not lacking in many areas, otherwise, Julia's marriage might have been in trouble."

"Master Cao, what are you saying?"

Emma, ​​who had just come out of the restroom, asked Cao Kun.

Cao Kun's gaze fell on her, and he saw that her aura was generally white, but with some black and gray mixed in.

But the dark gray color is gradually fading.

Cao Kun nodded secretly, which meant that Emma was in good health. As the evil spirit that was watching her was destroyed, the lingering yin energy on her body was also rapidly dissipating.

"It's nothing," Cao Kun replied casually.

As they were talking, Gella and Julia also came over one after the other.

Gella's aura was similar to Emma's.

Julia's body was also entirely white, but not as pure as Emma's and Gella's.

On its abdomen, there were two pinkish-white wisps of air.

Cao Kun was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that not only could the pregnancy be detected, but twins could also be identified directly.

After some time, people will probably be able to tell the difference between men and women.

As for the white on Julia's clothes, it wasn't as pure as Emma's and Gella's, which was due to their age.

After all, one of them is thirteen or fourteen years old, while the other is already thirty-seven.

"Master Cao, I used to think $50 was a bit expensive, but now I think you are absolutely worth it."

Julia handed Cao Kun a check, which contained the remaining $40.

Cao Kun happily accepted it: "Julia, you've had a tough time, carrying twins and going through something like this."

Julia paused, then asked Emma, ​​"Did you tell Master Cao?"

Emma shook her head: "No, I didn't say anything."

Cao Kun: "Emma didn't say it, but I figured it out."

Julia immediately looked at her stomach, which wasn't showing much at the moment.

She exclaimed in surprise, "You can tell that?"

Emma added, "Yes, if my aunt hadn't told anyone, no one would have known she was pregnant, let alone with twins."

Cao Kun laughed and said, "I naturally have my own methods."

Thinking of Cao Kun's many amazing abilities, Julia nodded and said, "That makes sense. Master Cao can even strike lightning, so it's normal that he could tell I'm pregnant with twins."

Emma: "Yes, it's amazing. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, and if someone had told me that someone could create lightning, I would never have believed it."

Cao Kun smiled and said, "Alright, that's all settled. I should go back now."

Julia said, "Master Cao, you forgot, you sent the driver away. Your car didn't come either, and it's not easy to get a taxi here."

Why don't you rest here for the night? The driver will take you home tomorrow.

Cao Kun thought for a moment and agreed: "Okay, then I'll bother you for one night."

Oh, and those servants in the servants' quarters can be let out now.

"I'll go." Gella was staying at someone else's house and wanted to do something to show off.

Cao Kun said, "Let's go together. I just need to go and collect some talismans."

"Then I'll go too." Emma followed.

Upon arriving at the servants' quarters, Cao Kun knocked on the door and then put away the talisman that had been pasted on it.

These talismans haven't been used yet, so their power is still there and they can be used again.

Cao Kun then went to check out the other locations.

Several of the talismans were found to have turned to ash.

This was caused when we blocked the evil spirit from leaving earlier.

Fortunately, there were only three such talismans, so the loss was not significant.

After collecting the remaining unused talismans, Cao Kun asked Emma and Gella, "Where are the talismans I gave you earlier?"

The two women reached into their pockets and found only a handful of dust.

While they were surprised, they also remembered what had happened before and felt a wave of fear.

"Master Cao, if it weren't for the talismans you gave us before, wouldn't we have been in danger?" Emma asked.

Cao Kun: "More or less."

Upon hearing this, the two women's eyes lit up even more.

………………

at night.

Cao Kun was asleep in his guest room when he suddenly heard a strange noise.

He sat up and looked down, and found that the doorknob was being slowly turned.
