That’s why this night market was allowed to operate legally.

Raylan glanced at Phoebe, clearly surprised by how kind she was to these onlinary people.
If it were him, he wouldn’t bother with such things.
To him. friends and acquaintances were like passing clouds, never lasting. So he figured it was better not to make friends at all.
The group moved from stall to stall, browsing one by one.

e Association had strict rules, whether in the outside world or within the night market.
such dangerous items were not allowed to be sold to ordinary people.
Lven weaker horoscope masters weren’t permitted to buy them, as taking them home would be a death sentence.
Ordinary items with evil energy weren’t strictly regulated.
While they could affect people, the impact was limited and wouldn’t cause serious harm.
Milton had good luck. At one stall, he found a snuff bottle that caught his eye.
Phoebe checked it for him and confirmed that it carried auspicious energy. She urged him, “If you can buy it, you definitely should.”
Milton trusted Phoebe completely, so he spent all his savings to buy the snuff boule.
After walking a short distance from the stall, Phoebe finally smiled and said. “For the price you paid, this was an absolute steal. The seller misjudged it, so you just got yourself a rare find. This piece has a layer of evil energy on the surface, so the seller didn’t realize it actually contains auspicious energy inside. That’s why they sold it at a regular antique price.”
Milton had felt an instant liking for the snuff bottle the moment he saw in
As he fiddled with it, he paused upon hearing Phoebe’s words, “Wait, you mean this thing has evil energy? Will it affect me? Or does the auspicious energy inside balance it out?”
Phoebe replied. “The evil energy on it is weak. It won’t have much of an effect on you. At most, you might have a few unlucky days or catch a minor iliness. I’ll give you a talisman later. Wrap the snuff bottle in it and leave it for three days. That will cleanse the evil energy. Once the evil energy is gone, you can carry it with you anytime. It’ll bring you plenty of benefits”
She pointed at Cain and said, “For example, if he had carried something like this before, he wouldn’t have been so unlucky. It can reduce bad luck by abour 302 10 50%. And unlike the horoscope artifact Cain is wearing yours won’t cause any rebound effects.”
Cain’s artifact was artificially cultivated with energy.
But the our Milton bought was naturally nurtured a place filled with auspicious energy, making it much sater and more beneficial.
The effect was quite different.
This was what horoscope masters wanted. Not only could it protect them, but it could also be of g
great help during battles.
Seruig thie excitement on everyone’s faces and their hope of funding a similar hidden gem, Phoebe added, “Of course, iteins like this are usually very rare and hard to come by. If it weren’t for the layer of evil energy on the outside, other horoscope masters would have bought in long ago. The seller might not have even put it up for sale.”
She went on. “This kind of item is truly rare, which makes it incredibly valuable. In t the horoscope master community, things like this can’t be bought with monry alone”

She chuckled. “This is something you can only come across by chance, not something you can seek out. You’re really
Milton’s face lit up with a big sunile. “I really do have good luck today!”
He sighed with emotion herbs, ever since I started hanging out with you, my luck has improved a lot
Back when he was in Jenkins Entertainment, and even before entering the entertainment industry, nothing in his life or career ever seemed to go smoothly.

In fact, he had faced an endless stream of frustrating and unhisky situations.

“Not only that, but things have been gettive better and better. And now, Leven managed to stumble upon with a rare treasure” he added.
Phoebe chuckled softly. “Oner things start going smoothly, they tend to keep getting better. That’s why you feel this way. It’s just the momentum of
Milton shook his head with a grin. “It’s not just a feeling. I truly believe yonder my lucky star. Pherbs”
Raylan spoke up, his tone calms but piercing. “Trom your facial features, its clear thott Phoebe is usdeed your lucky star. If you hadn’t gotten involved with Phoebe, your career wouldn’t just have stagnated, it would have been stuck for years. You would ve attracted people you’d never want to offend, and your life would have taken a much hander, more challenging tum. It might have even become quite miserable”
Raylan had noticed it before, how Milton’s fate had shifted ever since he had connected with Phoebe.
The change wasn’t something deliberate. It was simply the result of one choice that led to a significant shift,
This kind of fate alteration was in accordance with the natural law. There would be no backlash or punishment.
Kaylans observation made it clear. Milton’s meeting Phoebe was perhaps the best stroke of luck he would ever experience in his life.
Everyone believed Raylan’s words. After all, his abilities spoke for themselves.
Everyone was taken aback, clearly shocked by the realization that if Milton hadn’t switched to Phoebe’s studio, his life and career could have turned
out so much worse.
Now, his career was visibly improving. With Phoebe’s support, there was no doubt it would continue to get better in the future.
Milton was momentarily stunned by the realization.
Milton’s smile deepened, his eyes reflecting genuine gratitude. “So meeting Phoebe is the greatest luck of my life.
Maddox, with an air of quiet pride as if speaking about himself, added, “Of course,”
Then, with a meaningful glance, he continued, “You’re a stark contrast to some people. You’re getting luckier by the day, while others are just getting more and more unlucky.”
He paused, letting the words sink in. “It’s all about vision and choice.”
Maddox chuckled and patted Milton on the back. That shows you’ve got great

Milton nodded in full agreement. “Of course. I believe I have a good eye. Unlike some people who are… well, less than sharp, Mistaking fish eyes for

Cain, Jamar, and Reece exchanged looks, silently knowing that the words were pretty much aimed at them, without subtlety.
Of course, their words made them all feel quite frustrated and uncomfortable.
When they thought about it, it was actually true
Milton had gone from being unlucky to lucky, while they were getting more and more unlucky.
Tapecially Cain, who was clearly irritated by what the two had said.
Others joked. “I almost want to switch to Phoebe’s studio”
Phoebe chuckled lightly and said, “Come, you’re all welcome?
Jamar had a thought and leated in with a smile, saying “Phoebe, how about I join your studio too?”
It wasn’t because of the whole “lucky star talk. He actually wanted to improve his relationship with her.
He wanted to make up for the mistakes he had made in the past.

The group continued walking forward.
Cain, chjoying the moment, walked over to Jamar’s side.
He quietly muttered. “Jamar, looks like you can’t keep being a bootlicker.”
Jamar snorted. “At least I’m not as bad as you, Cain. At least Phoebe didn’t intentionally try to mess with me.”
Cain sighed. This conversation was going nowhere.
