The voice of Yu Meng rang out as she looked at me fiercely and said, "The bones of the previous girls, if I'm not mistaken, should be buried beneath this land!"

The previous girls... I seemed to have realized something and shivered all over, nodding at her and saying, "How... How did you know?"

Yu Meng looked at my expression and found her answer in her heart, sneering, "You're quite timid. I won't hide it from you. From the moment I entered, I felt a heavy Yin energy. Combined with what you said to me before, it wasn't difficult to guess."

She snorted coldly and casually replied, "But I have a question. In such a place full of Yin energy, how did you manage to stay here unharmed for so long? There must be something warding off evil spirits. I searched for a long time, and it turns out to be here."

Yu Meng weighed the jade lock in her hand and a mocking smile appeared on her lips. "Your great-grandfather was right. This is indeed a remarkable thing, but it's a pity that it fell into your hands, wasting such a precious item."

"Actually, from the beginning, you wanted to find this thing," I suddenly looked at her and spoke.

Yu Meng was startled by my sudden questioning, but she quickly regained her composure and asked me, "You're quite clever. I did come here initially to find my sister, but unexpectedly, I found that this place is a gathering ground for a hundred ghosts. Since that's the case, there must be a powerful treasure suppressing them here. Why shouldn't I take it with me while I'm at it?"

I sneered and continued, "Unfortunately, you're mistaken. While this place is indeed a gathering ground for a hundred ghosts, it's not the treasure in your hands that's suppressing them."

A trace of astonishment and doubt appeared on Yu Meng's face as she looked at me and asked, "Who are you, exactly?"
