Chapter 1034 Declan Exposed
Upon hearing this, Fabian chuckled. He wasn’t sure how well others were at
reviewing geomantic layouts, but he knew firsthand just how formidable Wynter was
at it.
The current peace in their home and his Improved energy levels were largely due to Wynter’s revision of the Quinnell residence’s geomantic layout upon her return to Kingbourne.
Fabian hadn’t disclosed this to anyone.
Ever since Wynter was abducted, he had sensed an unseen malevolent force
gradually eroding the Quinnell family’s fortunes.
Both the Quinnell residence’s and the hotel’s geomantic layouts were clearly intentionally designed.
Whoever was behind this knew about geomancy, so Fabian was reluctant to inform
anyone about Wynter’s skills in the Arcane Way.
Until things were clarified, he planned to keep certain information about Wynter secret. After all, ever since the incident in Panzarath, there had been inquiries about
Wynter.
Fabian had cleverly guarded against them. From his perspective, Wynter was indeed
qualified to guide this young cultivator.
Asserting moral authority right off the bat wasn’t what Fabian considered fitting for a
cultivator.
Cultivators in the Arcane Way traditionally aimed for comprehensive mastery. Their minds wouldn’t be bogged down by trivial domestic matters.
Cultivators in the Mystic Path might advocate letting go, but the Arcane Way always emphasized principles and methods.
Just as Wynter had said, “A debt of gratitude must be repaid, and an injustice must be avenged.”
Fabian appreciated that about Wynter.
No one noticed that Fabian and Wynter were whispering.
Even Jolene was busy clinging to Albert.
Albert could be considered a very compliant pawn, being clung to without knowing what Wynter and Fabian discussed.
Suddenly, Kolton spoke up, “Outside! It’s outside the walls, too!”
The crow flapped his wings as he cawed, nearly rolling his eyes skyward.
Cultivators these days were getting worse. He had been cawing for so long. Couldn’t Kolton hear? Why was he still studying the layout there? Had he read himself dumb?
“Is the crow there, too?” Kolton was anxious to follow the geomantic layout and find
an exit.
Declan felt compelled to intervene “Mr. Pennington, there’s nothing outside.”
“That’s impossible. Mr. Declan, with all due respect, your geomantic layout, while
effective, shouldn’t be overused.” Kolton looked at Declan
Declan realized Kolton had seen through it, so now he could only play dumb. “Why
would you say that, Mr. Pennington?”
“It steals others fortunes. It’s considered ill–gotten wealth, Kolton said earnestly.”
Mr. Declan, you should ask the families living near you
“Have their businesses struggled in recent years? Did someone fall ill and end up in the hospital every time they received windfalls?
*All of this is because of the geomantic layout here, which has siphoned away the blessings that should have been theirs
As Kolton spoke, the others gasped
Wynter spoke up at the right moment, “So. Great–uncle has been siphoning off fortunes from these aristocratic families
‘No wonder the Quinnell Group, Fenton Group, Winston Group, and a few others have hit obstacles in business lately
