CH 84

When Liao Yehong and Tang Ruihe came in, they saw everyone standing together. As a leading figure in the metaphysical society, when Tang Ruihe appeared in front of everyone, there shouldn't be such a cold atmosphere. Liao Yehong coughed twice, and finally the people on the periphery saw their chairman and Elder Tang. Some immediately shouted respectfully, "Elder Tang is here!" 

When the crowd heard the voice, they turned their heads and greeted Tang Ruihe respectfully. , Everyone knew that although the chairman was Liao Yehong, Tang Ruihe was Liao Yehong’s master, so everyone also knew Tang Ruihe’s strengths in metaphysics. Moreover, a few years ago Tang Ruihe retired, so everyone was a little excited to see this character again now.

Tang Ruihe gave indifferent respond and walked to the center of the crowd. He suddenly found that Gong Qingyao was standing in the middle. His indifferent expression suddenly faded, and his changed into enthusiasm, "Master, long time no see!" 

The hall instantly quieted down, were they dazzled and deaf? A master in metaphysics actually called a little girl a Master so passionately?

Liao Yehong wanted to say hello to Gong Qingyao, but found his master was very enthusiastic. He was taken aback for a while and said, "Master, this master Gong is now the special elder of our society." This was ostensibly addressed to Tang Ruihe and the audience. To put it bluntly, it was to introduce Gong Qingyao to everyone. 

Everyone was stunned again, this little girl turned out to be an elder, but when they saw the talisman she had drawn just now, she indeed had the ability.

Liao Yehong was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, "Okay, what are you doing? Hurry into the venue."

The master who was holding the talisman for observation hurriedly returned the talisman to Gong Qingyao with a look of dismay.

Gong Qingyao said, "It's okay, just hold it."

Everyone was shocked, and then they showed ecstatic expressions. Generally speaking, a master usually didn’t let other to be present when drawing talisman. Also, the drawn talisman paper would not be shown to others, to prevent others copying. But Gong Qingyao not only didn’t care about revealing her skills in front of everyone, but also generously showed the talisman paper to others to observe.

For a while, these metaphysical masters felt a little ashamed of Gong Qingyao while also felt good.

There was a placard on display at the hall dais. Tang Ruihe originally said that he would not participate, but when he heard that Gong Qingyao was coming he changed his mind. This was why Liao Yehong was delayed on the road. Of course, Liao Yehong would not say this reason. On the way to pick up Tang Ruihe, Liao Yehong asked the staffs to replace his placard that was originally placed in the middle of the dais with Tang Ruihe's.

Gong Qingyao was placed on Tang Ruihe's left, Liao Yehong's was on Tang Ruihe's right, and the rest were the vice presidents of the society. Everyone was stunned when they entered the venue and saw this seating arrangement.

Little did they know that if it weren't because Tang Ruihe was his master, he would want to arrange Gong Qingyao's in the middle.

In the conference hall, except for the seat cards in the front rows, the seats at the back were all at will. After everyone took their seats, the meeting began. Liao Yehong picked up the microphone and said, "Hello everyone, the annual metaphysical exchange meeting is held today in ancient city building. Before the meeting started, I would like to introduce an important person to all of you which was also the new metaphysical master that we know."

After saying this, Liao Yehong paused before continuing, "That is our special elder, Gong Qingyao!" In fact, this was already introduced just now, but there were still many people who did not clearly hear at the time.

Gong Qingyao looked at the people below the stage and nodded indifferently.

"For many people, it’s probably your first time to see Elder Gong, but I would like to briefly say three things. Those who have been to my Hongzhi Pavilion are aware of the changes in my place. That was Master Gong’s help."

Everyone was shocked. The Feng Shui of Hongzhi Pavilion was not bad at all, but the modified version was even better. It was both good for health and fortune. They didn’t expect Gong Qingyao to be able to do feng shui beside drawing talisman, this wasn really shocking. 

Wen Cheng, who was sitting in the second row, lowered his head a point when he heard this. Compared with Gong Qingyao, he was like comparing the size of an elephant and an ant.

Liao Yehong began to say the second point, "The Light of Hope Community that everyone knows, that is, the former Dream Garden Community, was also the work of Master Gong."

Everyone: ...

F*ck this. This Master Gong was incredible.

Wen Cheng put his head down again. He was wrong. He and Gong Qingyao were not elephant and ants, but the earth and a particle of dust.

After the silence, the hall immediately became noisy. Everyone did not expect Gong Qingyao to be so powerful. Who didn't know about Dream Garden Community?

Tang Ruihe took the initiative to say, "Oh, even I couldn't crack it back then."

Everyone: ...

Why this Elder suddenly become so honest?

Seeing everyone's looked shocked, Liao Yehong went on to say the third point, "There should be many people who know my piece of thousand years cold iron."

Liao Yehong had assets in his family, so he could squander it as much as he wanted. The thousand years cold iron was bought with a lot of money. When it was brought back, Liao Yehong was injured by the evil spirit of the cold iron, even the metaphysics meeting that year discussed the incident and was very impressed.

"It's been refined by Master Gong." Liao Yehong said.

Everyone: ...

F*ck, she could draw talisman, do Feng Shui, and make magical artifacts. She was so powerful that it made people unable to live.

Wen Cheng simply wanted to bury his head underneath the table. He knew now that Gong Qingyao was not the earth but the solar system, and he was a small dust particle.

Tang Ruihe on the side took the microphone and said, "After Yehong finishes saying three points, I have to say one more point."

Tang Ruihe paused. What everyone thought in their hearts was, okay, you didn't need to say anything. Everyone knew that the elder Gong Qingyao was really an expert.

Tang Ruihe looked sincere, "I want to thank Master Gong for curing my stubborn leg ailments." In fact, Tang Ruihe’s stubborn leg ailments had been cured a long time ago, but Tang Ruihe didn’t have the opportunity to thank Gong Qingyao yet. 

Everyone: ? ? ?

F*ck, if some of the previous words made everyone think Gong Qingyao was really an expert. Tang Ruihe's remarks hit everyone's heart directly. Tang Ruihe’s leg problem had always been considered by people in the society as heaven punishment, but now that it was cured, it meant that it was not a punishment?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Gong Qingyao more fiercely.

Seeing that the meeting time was almost over, Liao Yehong said, "Okay, the meeting has been delayed for half an hour before, so we won’t talk too much nonsense when the time is limited. Let’s go directly to the first item on the meeting agenda. Let’s invite our old man Chen that wants to give a talk about the use of Feng Shui in modern buildings."

Old Chen: ... F*cking talk. Who could listen to it at this time?

It's just that he had no excuse as the chairman already invited him up. Old Chen put the U disk he brought on the computer that was plugged into the projector and began to explain. Originally, Old Chen only planned to say a few words at will, but when he turned around, he found that Gong Qingyao was listening very seriously, so he explained more patiently.

Nowadays, in metaphysical society, everyone used modern methods to communicate, such as making presentation, and even some people using animation or video to show it. It was really an improvement. Gong Qingyao listened carefully to every presentation. When she heard a right point, Gong Qingyao would nod her head, but when she heard a wrong point, she would frown.

This made the presenter Old Chen a little nervous. He was originally trying to aim to be one of the top leaders, but seen by Gong Qingyao today, he felt like a primary school student reporting his homework to his teacher.

After speaking, Old Chen looked at Gong Qingyao, and Liao Yehong also took note of Gong Qingyao’s expression just now. He picked up the microphone and said directly to the participants, "Do you have any question?"

Everyone was busy taking notes. There was nothing to say. Every page of Old Chen presentation had different knowledge points. This time they would have to digest it for a while. Liao Yehong handed the microphone to Gong Qingyao, and Gong Qingyao directly said, "There is a problem with your third point."

Old Chen looked at Gong Qingyao, trying to recall what went wrong.

"We all know that in Feng Shui, the East, the West, the North and the South are dragon, white tiger, tortoise, and phoenix, but we forgot that there is an image of chrysanthemum in the middle, that is, the unicorn."

Everyone calmed down. What everyone talked about most was the east dragon and west white tiger. Yes, the feng shui also had a middle part. Old Chen nodded his head repeatedly, how could he make such a low-level mistake.

Gong Qingyao continued, "Each spirit beast is matched with five different colors according to the five elements of yin and yang..."

This was obviously the basic knowledge of Feng Shui, but everyone listened with gusto. Yes, some knowledge was easy to say, but Gong Qingyao discovered that even many basic introductory knowledge of today's metaphysics was wrong.

After Gong Qingyao pointed out the mistakes in Old Chen’s presentation one by one, she explained the relevant content from the surface to the deeper part. Old Chen bowed deeply to Gong Qingyao before returning to his seat. He was afraid he would forget what Gong Qingyao said, so he quickly wrote down the key points in his notebook.

The next person taught numerology. After the lecture, Gong Qingyao gave another analysis, and everyone in the audience was fascinated by it. Then everyone was shocked that Gong Qingyao seemed to understand many branches of metaphysics. And the knowledge was very thorough. There were five major studies in metaphysics. An average person chose at most one to study, and might still unable to study it thoroughly their entire life, but Gong Qingyao seemed to know everything.

It was originally an exchange meeting, but finally turned into a comment session by Gong Qingyao. The key was that everyone still liked it very much. Especially when Gong Qingyao commented, the metaphysical masters who presented stood obediently on the side, and the other participants also recorded crazy notes. Many people directly took out their mobile phones to record. There were others who had a bit of regret, if they knew they would have brought a voice recorder.

Liao Yehong glanced at the list, "Next is the last presentation, I invite Mr. Wu. Mr. Wu would like to communicate with you about six yao divination."

After Liao Yehong finished speaking, no one came to the stage, and someone said, "It seems that Mr. Wu is not here yet?"

After waiting for a while, there was really no movement. Liao Yehong planned to enter the last agenda of the meeting when the door of the hall was pushed open. A middle-aged man walked in with embarrassment, "I'm sorry. I have been delayed."

People who knew him quickly shouted, "Old Wu, it's just your turn to give a presentation."

When Mr. Wu heard this, he walked to the front of the stage and inserted the USB flash drive. In the last row of the hall, there was a figure madly beckoning him, but Mr. Wu couldn't see clearly because of his poor eyesight. The beckoning person saw Mr. Wu inserted the USB flash drive and opened the presentation file. His face paled instantly.

-----

The author has something to say:

Now we invite Mr. Wu to give his presentation.

Old Wu: Hehehehe, thank you, thank you...

Who do you thing the figure in the back row is?

Translator note:

I just finished translating TMMTMQ yesterday.

I has been busy but very fulfilling seeing another project done.

The update will go on as normal while I stocked up on ICRAB. I have a few options for the next project, but I haven't decided yet. So, if you have recommended completed novels that you like but haven't been translated yet, feel free leave them in the comment. I am always looking for new novels to read and if it was good, probably it will be MDMTL next project :D.

Thank you and stay safe~
