Meanwhile, Carvalho and Mason were deeply worried and anxious as they sat inside the Shangri-La hotel room.

Mason had not recovered from the appalling experience just now, and he was in a very poor mental state at this time. Carvalho had not spoken either, and he was holding a few copper coins in his hand as he kept tossing them on the tabletop.

The hexagram presented by the copper coins was no longer a hexagram that Carvalho could understand. This made Carvalho feel a little doubtful. There was always the presence of a good opportunity in the hexagram, but at the same time, danger had never been eliminated. Even the vague sense of the unknown was even stronger than it ever was before. 4 Unconsciously, Carvalho's mentality also began to change gradually.

He originally felt that he was taking advantage of Cadfan's invitation to come to Oskia to make some money on the side while seeking his good opportunity.

It would not matter even if he could not replace the good opportunity and fortune because he could just think of

it as a trip back to his motherland.

Even if there was danger, it would be because Carvalho was already old, and his body might not be able to endure being exerted and overworked.

At the same time, it would also be easy for him to trigger some hidden illnesses that were common amongst the elderly. 2

However, he never would have expected that this matter would have developed this way and that Falco Xanthos would suddenly appear!

This Falco Xanthos was truly too dangerous!

In Falco's eyes, murder was nothing at all.

In fact, murder was already nothing out of the ordinary for Falco. 4

The fact that Falco was suddenly involved in this matter really made Carvalho feel a strong sense of crisis. This strong sense of crisis was so significant that he was beginning to re-evaluate everyth from the bottom of his heart, trying to judge whether it would be worth it for him to continue investing his energy in this matter.

He had already lived until such an old age, and what he cared for was not Cadfan's money, but the good opportunity to suddenly become twenty years younger, just like Chandler. 2

However, it seemed impossible to unravel the good opportunity now, and the risk factors were so unpredictable. Carvalho was worried that he would have already lost his life in Aurous Hill before he even had the opportunity to encounter his good opportunity.

After all, Carvalho was just a Feng Shui master who already had one foot in his grave. So, it could be said that he was weak and powerless, and it was also the same case for his great-grandson, Mason. Both of them basically had very little ability to protect themselves.

Even if the both of them were to take Falco on together, they would not be able to defeat him in the first round. If they were to really get into a fight with Falco, Carvalho and Mason would only end up being fed to the parasitic worm.

Mason, who was aside, still had

trepidations and lingering fears after the experience, and he could not help but speak up, "Great-grandpa why don't we just go back to the United States? That Falco Xanthos that we met today is simply too evil! Ithe decides to target us, we will have no chance of winning against him at all!"

Carvalho sighed. "We can leave, but if we truly decide to leave, we'll definitely offend Cadfan Schulz. At that time, if Cadfan Schulz asks Falco Xanthos to finish us off, wouldn't we simply be outsmarting ourselves, then?" 3

Mason hurriedly said, "We can just tell him everything clearly before we return all of his money to him. It is

still possible for us to part on amicable terms, right?" 2

Carvalho shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear what Falco Xanthos said? He specializes in killing people, but he is not good at replaceing people. So, he's still waiting for us to replace the person so that he can go and kill him. Now, Cadfan Schulz seems to think that the person that he is asking us to look for is related to his granddaughter, Sophie Schulz. He wants us to replace a breakthrough from Sophie Schulz. Falco Xanthos might not necessarily agree to it if we were to leave just like that at this time. Didn't you hear what he said before we left? He asked us to hurry up and replace that person and to not cause a delay in him making a

fortune." 3

As he spoke, Carvalho sighed and said, "We have already been forced into a dead-end now, and it is not up to us to decide whether we are leaving or not."

"F*ck!" Mason could not help but curse as he said in exasperation, "What should we do, then? Will we be able to replace that person?"

Carvalho said emotionally, "It is possible for us to replace that person, but the main point is whether there will be other troubles after we replace him. Moreover, if we replace that person and that person is going to get killed by Falco Xanthos, this will end up becoming our karmic hindrance!" 5
