"Bring a bowl of water over," Damian ordered after glancing at Stefan.

Confused, Stefan quickly ordered a maid to bring a bowl of water over.

Damian held the bowl of water as he chanted under his breath. He soaked some of his paper talismans in the water then flicked the water at Stefan's eyelids.

Stefan's heart skipped a beat at the abrupt action. However, the color drained from his face swiftly and he took a few steps back because the sight in front of him frightened him.

"Mr. Kline, w-what are... these?"

Stefan could see a strange black smoke shrouding his house.

When he turned to look at his family, he saw gray mist wafting above their heads. They all looked pallid like a group of walking corpses.

Damian glanced at Stefan before scoffing in disdain, "What you're looking at now is called an evil spirit. The evil spirit takes the form of smoke, and it shrouds the Jones family. Your family's time is ticking." Feeling suspicious, Stefan inquired, "Mr. Kline, why couldn't I see anything earlier?

Damian sneered, "That's because I've cast The Mind's Eye for you to see the other world. It's only effective for ten minutes. Within these ten minutes, you'll be able to see these."

With that, Stefan no longer doubted Damian. He fell onto his chair in shock and turned toward Damian. "Mr. Kline, you have to save the Jones family!"

Damian waved. "This is a mere evil spirit. There is nothing to worry about. It's fate for us to meet today. I'll get rid of it for you.”

"Thank you so much, Mr. Kline. You're the savior of the Jones family!"

"Mr. Kline, you're our savior!"

The Joneses were all staring at Damian with grateful eyes.

Damian remained silent. He walked out of the hall and took a few steps in the courtyard. Then, he took out a talisman and handed it to one of the Joneses. Stefan could see that the talisman was faintly glowing in gold. In an instant, the golden light had chased away much of the gray mist.

At the sight, Stefan was overjoyed. He was now fully convinced that Damian was a truly powerful geomancer.

Damian waved his hand in front of Stefan, and the latter's sight returned to normal.

"I-I-"

A chill ran down Stefan's neck as he exclaimed, "You must be a reincarnation of the Gods. With you around, the Jones family's curse will be resolved!"

"This is just a minor evil spirit. With me around, nothing will happen to the Jones family," Damian

reassured proudly. He then took out dozens more of the talisman and handed it to Stefan.

"Let your family bring this along wherever they go. It'll ward off the bad luck."

Stefan took it gratefully then asked hesitantly, "May I know how much will these all be?"

Damian waved his hand dismissively. "Good karma will come to me for resolving this. I won't take anything from you. All I need you to do is to call that fraud over."

That fraud? Mr. Alex Jefferson?

Stefan froze; he was in a dilemma.

Although Damian was good, Stefan believed that Alex was a powerful geomancer as well.

Damian kept accusing Alex of fraud from the moment he entered the house. There was disdain in his eyes, and it was obvious that he wanted to humiliate Alex if the latter came. Regardless of everything, Alex was a benefactor of the Jones family. Stefan was now trapped between a rock and a hard place.

"Mr. Kline, why don't I tell you where Mr. Jefferson is?" Stefan did not want to cross Alex, and neither did he want to cross Damian. In the end, this was the only plan he could think of.
