Li Guangyou introduced, "Dad, this is Mr. Mu. He has just eliminated two evil ghosts from our old courtyard, both very powerful spirits."

"Mr. Mu, this is my father."

"Evil ghosts? Very powerful ones? And there were two of them?"

Old Man Li abruptly sat up from his recliner, his face full of shock and disbelief.

Two powerful evil spirits had appeared in their own old courtyard. This was serious. If they had not been removed, his whole family might have fallen into misfortune.

"Mr. Mu, hello, hello!"

Old Man Li gratefully stood from his recliner, walked over, and shook Xiao Mu's hand, "You have helped us rid our home of the evil spirits. I'm truly grateful from the bottom of my heart."

He shook Xiao Mu's hand over and over again, a completely heartfelt expression of gratitude on his face.

"Elder sir, hello!"

Xiao Mu shook Old Man Li's hand, but his gaze couldn't resist focusing on Old Man Li's face, observing it carefully.

Just like Li Guangyou, Old Man Li's face was also shrouded in intense ill luck, even stronger than his son's.

Xiao Mu now understood. The issue with the Li family ancestor extended more closely to Old Man Li due to their direct bloodline, hence the more significant impact.

"Old sir, take a look at this, do you recognize it? Does it have any connection to your family? Is this something that fell from an object in your family's possession?"

As he had suddenly remembered something, Xiao Mu showed the piece of stone corner to Old Man Li.

"What is this?"

Old Man Li took it and looked at it closely. He was a bit farsighted and specifically had to put on his glasses to inspect it for a while. In the end, he couldn't recognize what it was, "I can't recognize it, is it granite? It's commonly used in construction and also to make coffins and tombstones. Little Mu, where did you find this?"

Tombstone!

Coffin!

Xiao Mu jolted as if struck by sudden realization, he knew what the evil ghost had stolen from the Li family that night.

Coffin!

The coffin of Li Guangyou's ancestor!

Maybe it's Li Guangyou's grandfather.

A coffin is a sacred personal object that houses an individual for a lifetime and encapsulates magical power.

For the deceased, this is a treasure.

Entry without permission is forbidden!

Seizing a coffin can bring unimaginable benefits such as luck, status, and fortune. But for the yin spirit whose coffin has been stolen, it signifies a curse on their family and descendants.

Li Guangyou's grandfather lived his entire life in the old courtyard, and if the evil ghost wished to dig his coffin from the grave, it would have to disrupt the threshold of the old courtyard.

As for the noises heard by Li Guangyou's relatives at night, it was obviously some kind of manifestation of a yin god, reflecting the events happening at the gravesite in the courtyard where Li Guangyou's grandfather had lived his entire life.

This was serious.

If they failed to recover the coffin and eliminate the evil absurdity, Li Guangyou's direct relatives, including his father, Li Guangyou himself, and potentially even Li Guangyou's children, could die!

"Dad, I invited Mr. Mu to have dinner at our home. Could you please cook some dishes for us?"

Li Guangyou, seemingly unaware of Xiao Mu's thoughts, took the opportunity to ask his father.

Having spoken, he then explained to Xiao Mu, "Mr. Mu, my dad is a top-grade chef, he seldom cooks, but with your visit, I can finally have a taste."

"I wouldn't dare to trouble the elder, just a random home-cooked meal would suffice."

Xiao Mu had already gathered his thoughts and humbly replied.

"It's no trouble. No trouble at all, Little Mu. You and Guangyou just sit and wait. I'll go make dinner."

Old Man Li exhibited great warmth. After all, Xiao Mu had rid them of the evil spirits, making him their benefactor in some respects.

Li Guangyou's wife came out. She was a very gentle middle-aged woman who helped Old Man Li prepare the meal.

After Li Guangyou introduced his wife, Xiao Mu specifically observed her shadow. Unlike Li Guangyou and Old Man Li, there was no sign of her shadow fading on her body.

Xiao Mu understood this situation completely.

Li Guangyou's wife had no bloodline connection with Li Guangyou's ancestors, so when an accident befell Li Guangyou's ancestors, his wife would not be affected at all.

Li Guangyou sat and drank tea with Xiao Mu.

Having no mood to drink tea, Xiao Mu soon stood up, "Mr. Li, could I have a look at your ancestral hall?"

"Mr. Mu, you want to see our ancestral hall?"

At Xiao Mu's request, Li Guangyou was somewhat surprised and also somewhat hesitant.

The ancestral hall was the most sacred place of a family, dedicated to the ancestors, and outsiders were usually not allowed to enter.

In ancient times, even married women were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall for fear of offending the ancestors.

Xiao Mu's proposal seemed somewhat excessive, causing Li Guangyou to hesitate.

Xiao Mu had eliminated the Evil Ghost and has done a favor to his family, so he had to consider Xiao Mu's proposal.

"Mr. Li, the reason I want to see your ancestral hall is that I suspect that there has been a problem with your grandfather."

Seeing Li Guangyou hesitate, Xiao Mu couldn't help saying.

"There has been a problem with my grandfather?"

Upon hearing this, Li Guangyou looked at a loss, clearly not understanding what Xiao Mu meant by 'problem with his grandfather.'

Looking at Li Guangyou, Xiao Mu remained calm and said lightly, "Ancestry is connected with fortune, so burying ancestors in Feng Shui Treasure Land is meant to bless future generations. This is because the bloodline between the ancestors and their descendants are connected. This treasure land nourishes the remains of the ancestors and also nourishes this bloodline."

"However, conversely, if there is a problem with the Feng Shui, the bloodline will be affected. Mr. Li, if my guess is correct, there is already a problem with your grandfather, and it has even begun to affect you."

"Affected me?"

Li Guangyou jumped at his words.

"Let's go and have a look. I have proof for you."

Saying this, Xiao Mu took the lead to walk out the door.

Li Guangyou followed him out the door, looking puzzled.

Outside the door, the sun was shining brightly.

"Mr. Li, look at your shadow and then at mine."

Xiao Mu said, pointing at Li Guangyou's shadow.

Li Guangyou turned to look and in the next moment, he let out a cry of surprise.

Compared to Xiao Mu, his shadow was very faint, the difference was just too big.

"Ah..."

Luckily he realized this was at his home and was afraid of disturbing his father and wife, Li Guangyou hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand.

Even so, his face turned horrified, staring at his shadow in disbelief, "Mu...Mr. Mu, why is this happening?"

Li Guangyou was frightened.

Xiao Mu said calmly, "Very simple, I suspect there is a problem with your grandfather, which is affecting your family's bloodline. Mr. Li, not only you, but your father is also like this. Your wife has no bloodline relation with your grandfather, so she is perfectly normal."

"My dad?"

The fear on Li Guangyou's face intensified and he suddenly turned towards the kitchen, "Dad, come out for a moment."

"Guangyou, what is it?"

Old Man Li walked out of the kitchen with food in his hands.

"It's nothing, Dad. Go back and continue cooking."

Li Guangyou casually said to Old Man Li.

Old Man Li, looking confused, shook his head and went back into the kitchen.

The look on Li Guangyou's face grew heavier. The moment Old Man Li came out, he saw that his father's shadow was as faint as his own.
