"Xiaogang, calling me this late at night?" A teasing voice rang out.

"Daoist Li, I want to ask you to deal with someone!" Xiaogang, despite his status, spoke with a negotiating tone.

"Come to my temple tomorrow!" The call was abruptly cut off.

Listening to the "beep beep" from the phone, Xiaogang laughed, a wild laugh: "Lin Tian, don't blame me for being ruthless this time!"

Lin Tian walked out of Xiaogang's room, feeling good, but the matter was far from resolved.

"It seems if I want to expose Xiaogang's true face, I'll have to set a trap!" Lin Tian thought as he walked, pondering how to make Xiaogang slip up.

Meanwhile, on the top floor of a villa, a young man leaned against the railing, enjoying the night sea breeze.

"Sister, oh sister~ when will you finally listen to the family?" The young man raised his right hand, downing the red wine in his goblet.

"Young master, the wind outside is cold, you should go back inside to rest!" A woman in a white top and tight black pants draped a blanket over the young man's shoulders.

"Xianglong Tea House, this time, whatever it takes, I'm going to have you in my grasp!" Bai Jiaming pointed his thumb and index finger at the crescent moon: "Just like holding the moon in my hand!"

"Ring ring ring!" The woman's phone rang.

"Who is it?"

"It's Xiaogang!" The woman handed the phone to Bai Jiaming.

The words "Xiaogang" were displayed prominently on the phone screen.

If Lin Tian were here, he would have gasped in shock; damn, these two are working together!!!

"Why the call so late?" Bai Jiaming picked up the phone, making polite conversation.

"Lin Tian just came to see me!" Xiaogang paused, then continued, "He's already starting to suspect me!"

"And then?" Bai Jiaming sneered.

In his eyes, Lin Tian was just a clown, not worth fearing.

Even if a student is highly skilled, they're ultimately just a student!

"Then I'm planning to have someone kill him!" Xiaogang revealed his thoughts.

"But what about Bai Shishi? I've already been exposed; I can't get someone to tie her up again!"

"It was my mistake guarding Bai Shishi, but don't worry, since I could capture her once, I can do it again!" Bai Jiaming promised confidently.

"I'm aware of the Bai Family's capabilities; just don't let anything go wrong at a crucial moment!" Xiaogang reminded him.

It was more of a warning than a reminder; Bai Jiaming's slip-up had led to Bai Shishi being rescued, which dissatisfied Xiaogang.

If Bai Shishi hadn't been saved, how would he have been exposed?

"Don't worry, once it's done, half of Xianglong Tea House will be yours!"

Bai Jiaming promised, "And of course, there's my sister too!"

"Well, I'm off to rest, I have things to do early tomorrow!" Xiaogang hung up the phone.

The sea breeze hit, and Bai Jiaming felt a chill, yawning at the sky: "Have someone tie up my sister again in the next few days; this time, absolutely no mistakes allowed!"

"Understood!" The woman nodded, agreeing, and stepped back.

"Being invincible is so lonely, but I really enjoy this feeling!" Bai Jiaming showed a confident smile, reveling in the feeling of being in control and enjoying it!

Meanwhile, leaving the bath center hotel, Lin Tian directly called Mei Ruyan, asking him to send two people to watch Xiaogang at the hotel entrance.

These two were Mei Ruyan's trusted people, old members of Xianglong Tea House, naturally knowing who Xiaogang was.

Moreover, Lin Tian specifically ordered them to call him immediately if Xiaogang made any moves.

After finishing all this, Lin Tian finally returned to sleep.

The next morning, Lin Tian was woken by a rushed phone call from the people sent to watch Xiaogang last night.

They said Xiaogang had already left, and the two were driving to follow him.

Lin Tian got up immediately, washed up in five minutes, and headed out to take a cab.

Sitting in the taxi, Lin Tian thought again that being alone wasn't ideal, better to have Wu Yong as backup.

If Xiaogang noticed him following alone, it would raise suspicion.

Having Wu Yong around could serve as an excuse.

So Lin Tian called Wu Yong.

After some back and forth for five minutes, he finally persuaded Wu Yong.

So, Lin Tian and Wu Yong took taxis to the address sent by the tailing team ahead.

Golden Dragon Mountain, a mountain near Kanyue City, is also a popular weekend destination for Kanyue City residents.

A black sedan parked at the Golden Dragon Mountain car park, Xiaogang got out with a young man, heading towards Golden Dragon Mountain.

Lin Tian paid the cab fare, and after meeting up with Wu Yong, they headed straight for the destination.

Golden Dragon Mountain has a temple at its foot, known as the God of Wealth Temple.

Many Kanyue City residents come to pray for wealth here, so the temple is quite popular.

Xiaogang and the young man entered the God of Wealth Temple. Lin Tian and Wu Yong both thought he was there to pray since Xiaogang had recently started his own business.

But observing with his eyes, Lin Tian noticed this guy didn't pray but went straight through the temple to the back.

"Huh, follow me!" Lin Tian retracted his gaze, calling Wu Yong to go over together.

The two entered the God of Wealth Temple, where the incense was strong, and people queued continuously to burn incense; Lin Tian and Wu Yong squeezed through the crowd towards the depths of the temple.

"Young man, there's an ominous aura on your face!" Suddenly, a middle-aged Daoist in black traditional clothes and a small braid appeared before Lin Tian.

"What?" Lin Tian looked at the slightly hunched middle-aged man, stunned.

He could see ominous aura just like that? Could this Daoist be a skilled fortune teller?

"There's an ominous aura on your face, buy an incense stick to burn! Today happens to be the third day, I'm accurate in reading, you have a fate with Buddha!" The middle-aged man clasped his hands together.

"A Daoist talking about Buddhism? That sounds rather odd, doesn't it?" Lin Tian found it amusing.

"I don't really believe in this!" Lin Tian politely declined.

"Burn an incense stick, and I'll help you dispel the ominous aura!" The middle-aged man clearly didn't plan to let Lin Tian go.

Being hounded like this, Lin Tian had no choice but to buy incense, spending two hundred yuan!

"Step on the Seven Stars, walk over them!" The Daoist pointed to seven gold circles on the ground.

Lin Tian, holding the incense with a puzzled expression, stepped his right foot on the first gold circle.

"Stepping one star, commands a thousand soldiers!"

Lin Tian placed his left foot on the second gold circle.

"Stepping two stars, excellence in the field!"

With each gold circle Lin Tian stepped on, the middle-aged Daoist chanted a phrase until his right foot landed on the seventh circle.

"Stepping seven stars, born to royal destiny!"

"Is it real or fake?" Lin Tian, looking at the artificially made seven gold circles combined with the Daoist's words, suddenly felt duped.

It's not because Lin Tian lacks faith or doubts his beliefs, but because the middle-aged Daoist was entirely deceiving people.
