Chapter 940: Chapter 940 Observing Feng Shui

Xuexue couldn’t help but inwardly mock the fact that it would be absurd to forget something so important. To address this matter, she had specifically entered the Space to discuss it with Xiao Taohong, which had scared them both quite a bit.

However, outwardly, she appeared calm and collected: "Oh! So that’s what this is about! Then thank you for your effort, Mage."

"Celestial Master Zhang made a special preparation for Feng Shui tools today and rushed to the General’s Mansion without stopping. Just at the entrance, I even ran into the Great General Situ, who had urgent matters to see The Emperor, so he let me roam freely in the mansion. Upon entering, I bumped into the young lady here; if there was any offense, I hope the young lady will forgive me." Celestial Master Zhang was holding a jumble of items like gongs, pa-kua mirrors, and others, which made him appear somewhat disheveled.

His servant behind him was also carrying things.

However, as they were wrapped in a red cloth, it was impossible to tell what those things were from the outside.

"The matter of the General’s Mansion is in the capable hands of the Mage," Xuexue said with a proper smile on her face.

"No problem, I just returned from an excursion outside and am still on vacation. I’m idle in the mansion anyway, so it’s good to come out and have a look around," Celestial Master Qian said, glancing about, seemingly distracted.

Indeed, though he was nominally invited to observe the Feng Shui of the General’s Mansion, his actual purpose was to seek out the Thousand Year Striped Tiger.

"The Old Madam is also in the mansion, and she has great faith and admiration for the Heavenly Masters. If she knew a Heavenly Master came to the mansion to check the Feng Shui, she would surely be overjoyed."

"Hehe...! Really?" Celestial Master Zhang was preoccupied, his mind not on entertaining the old lady; his main goal was to find the Divine Tiger.

"Yes! How about I bring the Heavenly Master to my grandmother’s courtyard so she can take you around the mansion to have a look?"

"No need, no need, the Old Madam is of advanced age, and I certainly wouldn’t want to trouble her. It’s nice to have the young lady as my guide."

Xuexue smiled: "Celestial Master, I’m really sorry, but I have something to attend to outside and need to step out for a moment. What do you think...?"

"Oh! Is that so?" Celestial Master Zhang suddenly realized and immediately added: "No worries, no worries, go ahead. Having a servant with me will be just fine!"

Without Xuexue around, he could do as he pleased and search the entire General’s Mansion, which was ideal for seeking the Thousand-Year Divine Beast.

"Mm!" Xuexue nodded and turned to leave with Zi Xia.

Celestial Master Zhang inwardly rejoiced, thinking he was free to do as he wished in the General’s Mansion.

Who knew that he had not walked far when...

A large noisy group approached from ahead.

An old woman led them, seen dressed in a dignified and luxurious fashion, wearing a dark purple gown embroidered with exquisite peony flowers, her head adorned with full golden ornaments, displaying great wealth.

Upon seeing her, Celestial Master Zhang recognized her as the Old Madam of the General’s Mansion.

There was no avoiding her, so he boldly stepped forward to greet her with a courteous bow: "I hope the Old Madam is well!"

"Goodness me! Celestial Master Zhang graces us with his presence. Why did no one inform me in advance so I could personally welcome you at the entrance?" The Old Madam’s smile was so wide that her eyes barely showed. Celestial Master Zhang was a favorite of The Emperor’s, and his personal visit to the General’s Mansion was a great honor.

"It’s the Celestial Master who is the junior; how could I inconvenience the Old Madam with a welcome?"

"What are you saying? The Heavenly Master is a capable man of our dynasty, and it’s only right for a woman like myself to welcome you."

After exchanging pleasantries, they got down to business.

"Old Madam, I am here today upon the General’s invitation to observe the Feng Shui of the Mansion."

The Old Madam was delighted to hear this: "I’ve long heard of the Heavenly Master’s expertise in this area. Why don’t you start by examining the Feng Shui of the Refreshing Courtyard for me? These past few days, I’ve been sleeping restlessly, feeling in a daze as if there’s something at the head of my bed. But when I open my eyes, I see nothing."
