Chapter 685: Chapter 685

After much contemplation, Yang Fan finally made such a decision.

Even though this would reveal more about him, based on what those few had just said, they had already seen quite a bit.

In such a situation, letting them know a little bit more about the inner workings might be beneficial for both parties.

The beautiful proprietress twisted her supple waist and sat down opposite Yang Fan, her hand reaching out to touch the now-cooling water in the teapot. She turned to the tea-serving girl next to her and said, "How can you have no awareness at all? Hurry and bring the gentleman a cup of hot tea."

"Certainly."

The tea-serving girl placed the tray under her protruding chest and bowed slightly, hurrying off.

In just a moment, she brought over a cup of piping hot Longjing tea.

Even though this is also a tea-producing area, Longjing is still the first choice for many green tea drinkers.

Seeing that Yang Fan had picked up the tea cup, the beautiful proprietress began to speak, "Sir, I still don’t quite understand, do you mean that from now on we will have them as... neighbors?"

Yang Fan smiled, "Don’t be scared, the other side has no malicious intent, they were just annoyed by your provocations and decided to give you a little trouble. Beneath our feet lie ancient tombs everywhere, not to mention sleeping on beds placed above others’ heads is commonplace."

"It’s often that we’re unaware of these things, and knowing versus not knowing creates completely different states of mind." said the beautiful proprietress.

Yang Fan nodded his head and put down the teacup, "That’s true."

"But this issue can’t be resolved. You understand what I mean, right? You’ve already sought so many sages to try, and the answers were obviously incorrect; they simply didn’t want to tell you the truth and even made matters worse. I just spoke a little more frankly. If you don’t cause a scene and bother them, they won’t disrupt your normal lives."

"To put it in perspective, under normal circumstances, you exist in separate Yin Yang realms, without interfering with each other. It’s just that recently, due to some cosmic changes, energy from that side scattered a little over here, affecting you all. Then you started to provoke them incessantly. Even a Bodhisattva has a temper, so naturally, they would want to set things straight with you."

"Such events may happen again in the future, but they will definitely only be occasional, not a constant occurrence."

The beautiful proprietress looked seriously at Yang Fan and said, "But sir, what you are saying now seems to contradict your earlier words, you mentioned that there would be widespread casualties, that this place would be destroyed and such."

Yang Fan nodded, "The reason I said that was based on some external indications, like the robust scattering of energy that I was talking about. If it continues to affect the area further, this will inevitably become a human forbidden zone."

"I’ve encountered such situations before, and not just once. But that was just my judgment based on external signs. After communicating, I found out they had no intention to harm anyone. The forceful dispersion of energy was also intentional, so there’s nothing to worry about. Do you understand what I’m saying? People are divided into good and evil, and so are they."

"I understand that," the beautiful proprietress suddenly said excitedly, "Ning Caichen and that... that one... um... I can’t remember, anyway, that one was kind."

"Are you talking about Nie Xiaoqian?" Yang Fan asked with a smile.

The beautiful proprietress nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, that’s her."

"You can understand it that way," Yang Fan said, "Is there anything else you’re unclear about?"

The gorgeous proprietress shook her head, "No more."

"Although your words Mr. make my spine chill a bit, now, I clearly understand what is going on, and my heart suddenly feels much more at ease. Actually, even if you had just told me that the issue was resolved, I wouldn’t have doubted anything, but instead would have believed it even more. After all, I have already seen real changes, it really is resolved."

"I am very grateful that Mr. is willing to speak the truth to me, and I also understand your intentions now, I will honestly follow your advice."

Yang Fan smiled slightly, "In this case, what I said was indeed somewhat superfluous."

"But I said so much considering the standpoint of both parties involved. If you are still not at ease and try to provoke further investigation, the consequences would be as I initially described, and I am very certain you won’t find a genuine expert in the mystical arts. And if you really do find one, do you believe that the expert will say anything different from what I have told you?"

"I understand." The gorgeous proprietress nodded lightly, "It seems, on second thought, it’s not of such great importance anymore."

"In any case, you can consider the matter resolved, and it won’t cause you any more trouble," Yang Fan said.

Even though this repetitive conversation was a bit of a hassle.

But he simply wanted to do something for Lady Liu.

No matter how confident she was in her own abilities, if official attention was drawn, it would undoubtedly be troublesome.

The energy he had perceived upon entering the building had been terribly fierce, almost overlapping with the present world.

By letting these people know some general details, they would have a better understanding of how to handle things in the future.

"I may have asked for Mr.’s services fewer times than those two, but I’ve seen quite a few, and Mr., you are definitely the most honest one," the gorgeous proprietress said. "Here’s the thing, there’s always been something not right with my family’s ancestral grave, Mr., when would you have time to help me take a look?"

The purpose of Yang Fan’s sincerity was to have more repeat clients for his side job, but this second request seemed to have come a bit too quickly; the current issue wasn’t even fully settled, and the next one was already at his doorstep.

"How is it ’not right’?" Yang Fan asked.

"There’s always a big hole that appears, and there are signs of people having walked around it," the gorgeous proprietress explained with a slight furrow of her smooth brows, her face filled with melancholy.

"This has happened more than once or twice; it started the year before last and has probably happened about a dozen times by now. Every time it happens, our clan raises money for a ritual and then refills the grave with earth. We’ve consulted many experts, but each one upon arriving at the site says that it’s the work of some animal."

"There are plenty of wild boars in the mountain, true, but we’ve even bricked up the outer layer of the burial mounds and still, they’ve been breached. Surely wild boars have no reason to be at odds with bricks and stones, right?"

Yang Fan was sipping his tea slowly, quietly listening to the gorgeous proprietress’s account.

"What about those footprints you mentioned?" Yang Fan asked.

"Just the marks of someone having walked by. I’ve seen them before. They go around the burial mound a few times and then disappear," said the gorgeous proprietress, "The previous experts we consulted couldn’t provide a clear explanation. One of them speculated that it might be tomb raiders, but surely tomb raiders, after one or two years, wouldn’t keep fixating on our family’s ancestral grave without letting go?"

"There’s always been a lot of mystery surrounding this issue, but since no one has found the reason, it’s just been dragging on."
