Mysterious Visitor at the Residence of the Master of Yin and Yang 055

"Cousin," the Onmyoji immediately flashed a sycophantic smile at Huang Can and then asked, "What brings you here?"

This Onmyoji, Chen Xiang by name, bore no blood relation to Huang Can. His choice of address stemmed from two factors: Huang Can's mother's family hailed from the same village, and he sought to curry favor by establishing a connection with Huang Can.

Every year, a few days before the Spring Festival, the Onmyoji would visit Huang Can's home under the pretext of paying a family visit, bearing a slew of generous gifts and handing over a sum of money to Huang Can.

If it hadn't been for Huang Can smoothing things over behind the scenes these past few years, those whom he had extorted would have long since sought out Onmyoji with significant mana to deal with and teach him a lesson. For this reason, every time he met Huang Can, the Onmyoji had to treat him with the utmost reverence, as one would an ancestor.
