Chapter 875: Chapter 875: Pretending

"Then things went wrong, huh?"

"Did he die?"

"No, he thought he was a loach and soaked himself in mud."

"Huh?"

Seeing the surprised look on your face, Xu Hai laughed and said, "When I first heard this, it cracked me up too. That old man, over seventy years old, could still play 78 styles with two mistresses, quickly became the talk of the town. Just when many people started to wonder if they should also try to eat loaches raw, some bizarre incidents occurred. One morning, he got up without putting on clothes and ended up streaking in broad daylight, and eventually plunged headfirst into a mire."

Hearing this, you pretty much got the gist.

You immediately asked, "Since his family is so powerful, why didn’t they seek someone to cure him?"

"They did, but it was no use," Xu Hai shrugged. "At first, they thought he might have fried his brain. But medical tests revealed, hey, guess what, this old guy’s physical fitness is even better than a healthy thirty-year-old! Being physically fit doesn’t mean his brain is alright, so they took him to see a psychiatrist, and nothing was wrong with him either. In front of all the scientific equipment, he just didn’t show any problems. Later the family summoned several Demi Immortals and Taoist priests, but to no effect."

You furrowed your brow and said, "We’re hitting the freeway, focus on driving, I’m going to take a nap."

"Hehe, Brother Yun, tell me the truth, what did you really do last night? With your stamina, even if you stayed up all night, you shouldn’t feel sleepy."

Glares at Xu Hai, you said flatly, "Crazy Woman lay on my shoulder and cuddled up like a kitten. Seeing her sleep so soundly, I didn’t move all night long."

"Wow, a human pillow, and you played the role all night? Dude, you rock!" Xu Hai drooled as he spoke, "Ah, Officer Xian cuddling in your arms like a kitten, tsk tsk tsk, can’t even begin to imagine that beautiful scene..."

Xu Hai, unlike those rich kids, knew when to advance or retreat, understood limits, and was savvy in his dealings, which was one of the reasons you partnered with him.

As soon as you hit the highway, his car’s number plate automatically changed, then the engine roared, and the sports car sped at 140 km/h on the freeway ramp, whizzing past a red sports car and speeding off.

About half an hour later, the convertible slowly stopped in the yard of a countryside villa, and a fashionably dressed woman came out.

"Young Master Xu, you arrived quicker than I expected. Did you race here again?"

Xu Hai shrugged and said with a smile, "Can’t help it. The highways from Eastern Sea to Yuhang, I could drive with my eyes closed, too familiar with it. Not to speed would be a disservice to my car."

Then, Xu Hai introduced you, "This is my partner, Mu Yun."

The woman glanced at you casually, and naturally, nothing could be discerned from the appearance alone; she politely nodded at you.

You nodded back and then began to look around, asking just before entering, "Is the old gentleman still eating loaches?"

The woman paused, then shook her head, "Not anymore."

She seemed to think of a terrifying image and sighed deeply, "Now he has switched to eating fish."

"Eating fish, that’s normal," Xu Hai said.

"Eating fish is normal, but the thing is, he eats all fish raw!"

The woman led you to the living room, where several people, both men and women, were sitting. Three middle-aged men and women seemed to be the decision-makers of the household.

A middle-aged woman with heavy makeup scrutinized you and frowned dourly.

Her frank words were also quite irritating, "We’ve brought so many masters and Demi Immortals and none could handle it, what can these two young fellows do?"

Xu Hai, one of the few troublemakers of Eastern Sea City, naturally couldn’t stand being ridiculed and immediately said with a grin, "Yo, this auntie’s words carry weight, must be experiencing menopause recently, didn’t sleep well last night, huh? Don’t worry, in a bit I’ll have someone send a truckload of ’black chicken white phoenix pills’ for you."

The middle-aged woman was about to explode with anger when a young man beside her quickly whispered something in her ear, and after hearing it, her expression changed dramatically, and she sat down without a word.

The middle-aged man in the middle slowly stood up and reached out his hand to Xu Hai, "Young Master Xu, long time no see."

Xu Hai dug his ear casually, with a very Dio-like attitude, "Wasn’t it just last month at the New World Nightclub? At that time, you had three busty ladies clinging to you and even tried to pass one to me, but brother here made her vomit on the spot, and it was Mr. Tan who wiped her ass. Mr. Tan, you really have a short memory."

Wow, the piece of information was indeed huge!

Now a middle-aged woman’s face darkened, and the young woman who had led you in turned her head away, visibly embarrassed.

The middle-aged man couldn’t help but chuckle, "Young Master Xu really has a knack for words that even surpasses the master."

Xu Hai proudly said, "Naturally, even the dead can be brought back to life by my words."

The middle-aged man let out a bitter laugh and explained to the middle-aged woman sitting across, "By making her vomit, he meant pouring a bottle of wine down her throat, a thousand bucks a bottle, and those girls were fighting over it. After that, I had to send three people to the hospital for alcohol poisoning."

"Hmph, anyone who frequents that sort of place isn’t decent," the middle-aged woman snorted coldly.

To change the topic, the middle-aged man turned back to you, "Young Master Xu, why don’t you introduce your partner to us?"

Just as Xu Hai was about to speak, you held up your hand, stopping him, "No need for introductions. Let’s go see the old man."

Cool!

The middle-aged man looked slightly embarrassed but smiled and nodded, "Alright."

When you entered the old man’s bedroom, you found an elderly man lying quietly on the bed, appearing to be asleep.

The middle-aged man knew that you were the one who really mattered, so he explained, "To prevent any accidents, I gave him a sedative."

The young woman who greeted you earlier sighed lightly, "The previous Demi Immortals and Taoist priests either couldn’t find the problem or shook their heads after performing rituals, saying they couldn’t handle it and we needed to find someone more skilled. Among them, Daoist Priest Wang from Qingyuan Monastery said this was karmic retribution, and he couldn’t intervene as he was an outsider."

"Mhm, Daoist Priest Wang is right, it indeed is karmic retribution."

At that moment, under everyone’s astonished gazes, two Yellow Vermilion Charms flew out of your pocket.

Your abilities had significantly improved after your body was reshaped, and dealing with such matters had become a piece of cake for you. A single Sen Luo Eye could solve it.

However, to make money, you naturally had to show off a bit since seeing is believing. You needed to perform some rather flashy actions for these people to see, serving as a mode of advertisement.
