“Your Taoist abilities still need to be observed, and you’re very thick-skinned,” the patriarch said.

Xiao Bai was talking non-stop. “My master had always said that defying the heavens and changing destiny is a big taboo, and mortals must not do it. This person is actually not afraid of karma!”

“Thinking about it, to be able to do such a thing, you have to be very rich. A warlock would only agree to do it unless a person could afford it. Changing one’s destiny is sorcery. A normal person would not be able to come across it even once in his lifetime. Since I have encountered it, I must find this evil villain and make our Taiqing Palace famous.”

Bai Jin clenched her fists and raised three fingers to swear secretly. As for this talisman, she would first help that person from next door to block the rotten smell. It was also the luck of this ugly freak that he had met her. Thus he did not have to lose his life this time!

Bai Jin held the talisman paper and was about to leave when she saw the patriarch’s tablet fall with a bang.

Bai Jin turned around and put the tablet back properly.

“Don’t worry, Patriarch. Your disciple is doing this to help someone in need, but it won’t be free of charge. I’ve already thought about it. Dealing with that person, I must charge him a fee.”

“Although I’m doing this to make our Taiqing Palace famous, I’m exposed while the enemy is still hiding. It’s the same as turning myself into a living target. Therefore, the fee won’t be low. At the very least, I have to ask him for 500 dollars!”

Seeing that the patriarch was no longer throwing a tantrum, Bai Jin happily left the room.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone shouting in the hall.

“Wild girl with the surname Bai, come out! If you’re capable, let’s have a face-to-face confrontation!”

The person who came was Zhou Guang’s second son.

Bai Yang and Tao Ran obviously had heard the commotion and rushed downstairs. Just as they were about to stop Xiao Bai from going out, they saw Xiao Bai resolutely push open the door and walk out.

Bai Yang put his hand on his forehead. “Uh, my daughter is also a woman of action!”

Outside the door, the second son of the Zhou family looked at the three Bai family members who came out one by one. Somehow he still had some concerns in his heart as his family’s business was still in the hands of the Bai family. When he thought of this, his tone softened quite a bit.

“Our two families have no enmity. Do you have to do this to destroy the harmony of our family? Early this morning, my father wanted to drag me to do a paternity test. My mother fell down the stairs while arguing with him! Why should I do a paternity test? I am my father’s biological son. Is there a need for a paternity test? I, Zhou Tao, cannot afford to ruin my reputation.”

“Why should you do the test?” Bai Jin asked doubtfully, “Obviously because you are not a child of the Zhou family. I am just telling the truth.”

Bai Jin really didn’t understand. Wasn’t this the obvious truth? Why did he still ask for the reason? But she quickly thought of something and revealed an expression of sudden realization.

“Is it because I’m too direct and you don’t want to listen?”

Bai Jin thought of what her master had taught her. He said that she should also keep up with the times while reviving the Taoist temple. The people out of the mountain here were particular about service. So she should also consider their feelings and speak more tactfully? Then she would practice her skills on this illegitimate son who was right in front.

“Did your mother not tell you? An unfaithful woman is an adulterer. I’m sorry, I should have considered this. Perhaps your mother doesn’t even know who your father is.”

…

Bai Yang and Tao Ran looked at their daughter in shock. Wasn’t this too straightforward?

“You!” Zhou Tao decided not to argue with this fool. He turned around and said to Bai Yang and Tao Ran, “Uncle Bai, Aunt Tao. I don’t mean to make a scene either, but this little girl of yours has gone too far. With just a sentence, she has stirred up trouble in my family. The moment my father returned home, he wanted to drag me to do a paternity test, and my mother even fell down the stairs.. Don’t you have to give my family an explanation for this matter?”
