Chapter 30

After nearly an hour of tracking, Su Jiu looked at the abandoned factory that now appeared before him. Su Jiu's pupils slightly contracted; his sense of the presence was becoming increasingly intense. Indeed, the end of the aura tracking technique was inside this abandoned factory. Su Jiu was very clear in his mind that if he did not have this aura tracking technique, it would have been impossible to find this place. This area was already completely in the suburbs. Xiang University was located on the outskirts of Xiang City, not in the city center. Far from Xiang University were several abandoned factories, and the one before him was one of them. To find such a place in a medium-sized city was indeed very difficult. After a brief pause, Su Jiu felt the intense aura. From the feedback in his mind, the compass was inside this abandoned factory. At this moment, Su Jiu was already certain, with no doubt. It was already around four or five in the afternoon, and the sun was gradually setting. Generally speaking, someone who stole something and sneaked into such a place was likely not a good person and definitely not an ordinary person. Su Jiu pondered this in his mind. Su Jiu observed the surroundings and began to advance lightly towards the abandoned factory. This abandoned factory was completely desolate, with no signs of human presence. If it were not for his clear sensation that the compass was here, Su Jiu would not have thought that anyone would be here. Su Jiu was very clear in his mind that the person who stole the compass was definitely not an ordinary person. They did not take the 200,000 yuan in cash but instead stole this unremarkable compass. Clearly, the person was from the feng shui community. The abandoned factory was surrounded by sections of broken walls. The iron gate at the main entrance was already rusted, and the large lock on the iron gate had completely turned into iron filings. Even with a key, it probably wouldn't open. The walls were not very high, about two meters. Su Jiu sized up the situation, leaped up, and lightly vaulted over the wall. Inside the wall, the area was overgrown with wild grass. In October, the wild grass was already somewhat withered. There were several large workshops inside the wall. The workshop where Su Jiu sensed the aura of the compass was the one right in the middle. After determining the direction, Su Jiu jumped down from the wall and walked towards the middle workshop. The iron door of the workshop was not locked, and everything was in a state of abandonment. "Not bad! You have some skills to find this place so quickly!" As soon as Su Jiu entered the abandoned workshop, he heard a voice. Su Jiu was instantly startled. Following the voice, a figure emerged from behind the abandoned machinery. This was a stranger, and Su Jiu carefully observed that he did not recognize the person. However, from the smiling expression on the other person's face, it was clear that the other person recognized him. Su Jiu's pupils slightly contracted. When he entered the workshop, he had already raised his alertness and was constantly paying attention to his surroundings. He knew that there was someone inside the workshop, but he did not expect that this person would be so close. The unfamiliar man was less than ten meters away from him. This was what shocked Su Jiu. This distance was relatively dangerous for a feng shui master. "Who are you? Why are you here!" Su Jiu suppressed his shock and calmly asked. "Su Jiu, a freshman at Xiang University, a descendant of the Southern School of Feng Shui. You solved the feng shui problem at Panlong Manor a few days ago, right?" The middle-aged man did not respond to Su Jiu's question but smiled and took two steps forward, saying. "Who are you? Why did you take my Su family's compass?" Su Jiu was again startled by the middle-aged man's words. He subtly took two steps back. The middle-aged man gave him a sense of danger, and he felt very uneasy. Since he started using the aura tracking technique in his dormitory, Su Jiu had thought of many scenarios and guessed what kind of person might have stolen his compass. However, he never expected to encounter such a situation. Su Jiu was very clear in his mind that he had never met this middle-aged man before. Moreover, from the other person's tone, it was clear that they had known he would definitely find this place, so they appeared voluntarily. Most importantly, the aura tracking technique was an ancient technique recorded on the golden compass in his mind, which no longer existed. Even if it did, it would only be a name, not the content. However, the other person's tone expressed a firm belief that he could find this place. The most critical point was the sense of danger Su Jiu felt from the other person. This was his intuition, and as a feng shui master, he trusted his intuition. Su Jiu was very clear in his mind that he had now entered the initial stage of the Qi Cultivation realm, truly stepping onto the path of a feng shui master. The other person could give him such a feeling, clearly indicating that the middle-aged man was also a feng shui master in the Qi Cultivation realm. In the feng shui tradition, one could not be called a feng shui master without cultivating Qi, and there was no significant difference from an ordinary person. However, once one entered the Qi Cultivation stage, it was like an ordinary person being equipped with weapons. Regardless of other factors, one's own combat ability and offensive methods were different. After loudly questioning, Su Jiu stared at the middle-aged man. The distance between them was now less than ten meters, which was already a dangerous distance for a feng shui master. "Who I am is not important. What's important is that the thing you want is now in my hands!" The middle-aged man was not bothered by Su Jiu's loud voice. He smiled faintly and pulled out an ancient, weathered compass from his pocket. Seeing the middle-aged man's action, Su Jiu was shocked. This was indeed his Su family's heirloom compass. Guessing that the middle-aged man had stolen the compass was one thing, but actually seeing the compass was another. As long as he saw the compass, Su Jiu's mind was set. He did not recognize this person, but from their brief conversation, he had already gathered a lot of information. This person had investigated him and was very familiar with him, even knowing about his family background. However, the investigation was only partial. There were some things the other person did not know. Su Jiu was very clear that, at the very least, the other person did not know about the second teaching building or the golden compass in his mind. These two points were crucial. The feng shui problem at Panlong Manor could be solved by other feng shui masters, just a matter of time. However, the issue with the second teaching building was not that simple. Su Jiu only learned this later from the content recorded in the golden compass in his mind. If the other person knew that he had solved the feng shui problem of the second teaching building and still calmly lured him here, Su Jiu would not hesitate to run as soon as the other person showed the slightest hint of killing intent. PS: Sorry, for the past half month, due to special circumstances, I had to stop updating. This is an unforgivable mistake during the new book period, but there was really no other way. I don't want to explain too much, and I don't know how many readers are still following this book. Regardless of the reasons, stopping updates was my mistake. Now that the situation has passed, I will start updating again and write this new story well to present it to all of you.
