I, the number one master of metaphysics, have achieved legendary status in the entertainment industr

Upon hearing this, Qingsong's smile faded slightly, and he gently shook his head: "The way of feng shui is subtle and gradual; it cannot be reversed overnight. Although I have tried my best to make adjustments, the foundation of the Wang family's fortune has been damaged, and it cannot be quickly repaired by ordinary means. This attempt to borrow fortune has failed and has only made the decline more apparent."

He glanced at Wang Huajian, who was still cursing Lu Fan on the bed, and then changed the subject: "However, it's not entirely hopeless. Judging from Lu Fan's recent appearance and complexion, his destiny is indeed peculiar, strong and prosperous, and he is currently at the peak of his luck."

I will try again, using their good fortune as 'fuel' to mend the Wang family's 'fire,' which may temporarily halt the decline and buy more time."

"Please enlighten me, sir!" Zhou Li said immediately.

"This matter requires careful consideration and cannot be rushed," said Mr. Qingsong. "The most urgent task is to cut off its wings and disrupt its mind. Only when its fortunes fluctuate can we seize the opportunity to act."

Wang Zhentao sneered: "I'm already doing it. I've already spoken to Yu Tinglan and Su Qin. If they're smart, they should know to stay away from that kid. As for the resource blockade, we'll take it slowly."

"What about the Ding family?" Zhou Li suddenly asked. "That old fox Ding Jianguo is not someone to be trifled with. His daughter, Ding Xingyou, is currently using Lu Fan in a film and I heard she appreciates him quite a bit. If the Ding family is determined to protect him, and we go head-to-head with Ding Jianguo, we're afraid we'll suffer considerable losses."

Wang Zhentao frowned. The Ding family had deep roots and extensive connections in the entertainment industry, which was indeed a problem.

Qingsong smiled slightly: "If we can't act openly, we'll start from the shadows. I've heard that Lu Fan and director Ding Xingyou seem to have a rather close relationship? If we can create a rift between them, or even turn them against each other, would Ding Jianguo really go to such lengths for a minor artist who has displeased his daughter?"

Zhou Li's eyes lit up: "Sir, do you mean... to sow discord?!"

"Exactly." Mr. Qingsong nodded. "People's hearts are fragile, especially when it comes to emotions and interests, they are most easily swayed. If we can make Ding Xingyou dislike Lu Fan, or even kick him out of the crew, then Lu Fan will lose a strong ally, and his luck will definitely be affected. At that time, when we use the 'borrowing luck' method, the resistance will be much less."

Yun Xuzi, who had been hiding in the back, cautiously stepped forward and whispered, "Senior, Mr. Wang, Chairman Zhou, I have an informant in Ding Xingyou's film crew. He has access to a lot of inside information and might be useful."

Wang Zhentao and Zhou Li exchanged a glance.

"Is it reliable?" Wang Zhentao asked.

"Absolutely reliable." Yun Xuzi quickly assured him, "This person owes me a great favor, and I have some leverage over him. I had him do some minor things before."

Zhou Li pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded: "Alright. Let's start with this informant. Mr. Qingsong, I'll need your guidance on sowing discord. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need anything."

Mr. Qingsong stroked his beard and smiled: "Easy, Yunxu."

"Disciple is here."

"What did you do with that eyeliner?"

Yun Xuzi glanced at Qingsong and carefully replied, "I had him do something to the male lead in the film crew to deal with Lu Fan."

Mr. Qingsong said "Oh?" and looked at Yun Xuzi: "You had him tamper with the male lead? What kind of tampering?"

Yun Xuzi quickly said, "It's a little trick to incite jealousy and amplify negative emotions. The male lead, Xu Haotian, is already arrogant and jealous of Lu Fan."

I had my spies draw an inconspicuous 'Anger Charm' on the inside of his thermos with a special potion. The more he drinks from it, the more his dissatisfaction and competitive spirit towards Lu Fan will be amplified, making him more likely to act irrationally and thus clash with Lu Fan.

If the two openly quarrel on set, or even come to blows, Ding Xingyou, as the director, will definitely have a headache, and his impression of Lu Fan, who caused the trouble, will also worsen.

Wang Zhentao listened without commenting.

Zhou Li frowned slightly: "Is that all? I'm afraid that's not enough. Ding Xingyou is the director. Although discord among actors is troublesome, it's also a common occurrence and may not be too serious."

Mr. Qingsong stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then said to Yun Xuzi, "What exactly does your informant do? Does he have access to the director's or Lu Fan's personal belongings? Or does he frequently stay near them?"

Yun Xuzi replied, "Senior, he certainly wouldn't have access to the core personal items of Ding Xingyou and Lu Fan, but he might come across things like chairs for resting on set, tables for temporarily storing things, and shared props."

He's quite clever; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hide the recording pen and battle flags in such concealed locations during the last formation.

"Hmm." Qingsong nodded, turned around and took out two items from an old-fashioned wooden box he had brought with him.

It was a small, dark brown wooden gourd, about the size of a thumb, with a smooth surface and extremely fine spiral patterns.

The other item was a small, transparent glass bottle filled with a colorless and odorless liquid, which was more than half full.

Qingsong handed the small gourd to Yunxuzi, "This item is called 'Mustard Seed Gourd,' and it contains a wisp of 'Disturbing Incense' root. Its scent is extremely faint and difficult for ordinary people to detect. However, if one stays within its scent range for a long time, one will gradually become restless, overthink, and lose judgment. In particular, one is prone to developing unfounded suspicions and irritability towards those close to or trusted by others."

"Have your informant find an opportunity to place it under the director's chair where Ding Xingyou usually sits on set, or in an inconspicuous corner of her private dressing room, preferably in a shady spot."

He then picked up the small glass bottle: "Use the water in this bottle to wipe your eyeliner with a clean cloth when you have the chance. Remember, just a very small amount, and don't leave any water stains."

Yun Xuzi carefully accepted the water: "Senior, what are the uses of this water?"

Qingsong said calmly, "When someone comes into contact with something wiped with this water, they will become emotionally unstable, suspicious, and sensitive. Most importantly, those who have been poisoned by the Mustard Seed Gourd will develop a strong hostility towards anyone with this aura on them; the stronger the aura, the greater the hostility."

After listening, Wang Zhentao's face showed a hint of satisfaction: "This method is indeed insidious... well, ingenious. It leaves no trace, yet it hits the nail on the head."

Zhou Li nodded in agreement: "That sounds more sophisticated than direct confrontation. Mr. Qingsong is truly a master. However, how can we ensure that the informant will succeed? Planting the item isn't difficult, but placing it in the right spot without being detected requires the right timing."

Yun Xuzi immediately said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, the informants can be placed."

"Alright." Qingsong gave a final instruction, "Tell him to be extremely careful in his actions, better to be slow than to make a mistake. Once you arouse the other party's suspicion, all your previous efforts will be in vain. The effects of these two things accumulate slowly, and it will take about three to five days for them to begin to show results. Tell him to pay close attention to any subtle changes in the interaction between Ding Xingyou and Lu Fan, and report back promptly."

"Yes, disciple understands!" Yun Xuzi bowed and replied.

Wang Zhentao looked at Qingsong: "Sir, besides these, is there anything else we need to do on our side?"
