Chapter 543: Chapter 543: The Ancestral Patriarch Threatens the Ancestor Master as Usual

Jiangli heard the words and said, "Alright, let’s go have a look."

Xia Xin hesitated, "But Great Ancestor, didn’t you have a dinner appointment with President Fu? If we go now, we definitely won’t make it. Should we give President Fu a heads up?"

"No need, we can have dinner at six or seven, two hours is enough to handle everything."

As Jiangli spoke, he walked towards the main hall, adding, "You go ahead and tell them to wait for me, I need to prepare some things before heading over."

Having heard Jiangli say this, Xia Xin could only agree.

After all, he too feared something might really happen with Cat Sister, and it would be bad if it led to loss of life.

He immediately got in touch with Cat Sister.

Upon learning they were coming, Cat Sister was endlessly grateful.

Jiangli went to the main hall, scooped up a large pile of incense ash from the burner in front of the ancestral statue, and put it in another bucket.

Then, he scraped off a layer of gilding from the bottom of the ancestral statue.

Jiangli had just finished his work when the red cloak on the ancestral statue started to move, as if it were blowing up in anger.

Jiangli patted its leg and said, "Rest assured, rest assured, I’m just using a bit of stuff, I’ll replenish it later. How could I owe you anything?"

The ancestral statue’s cloak was still stirring.

Jiangli clicked his tongue, "Old man, how could I mistreat you? It has always been you bullying me. I won’t short-change you. If you still disagree, I’ll just move you out entirely, believe it or not?"

The ancestral statue: "..."

Whoosh.

The cloak pressed down and became still.

"That’s more like it."

Jiangli let out a low hum and strode out with the items.

Xia Xin was just about to check on things.

When he saw Jiangli coming out.

Holding a small wooden bucket, Jiangli handed it to Xia Xin, saying, "Here, take this."

When Xia Xin looked, it was all incense ash, "Bringing so much incense ash?"

"Yeah, this old thing’s incense ash has high merit, it can suppress Yin Energy. No need to look for any black dog’s blood with this stuff." Jiangli then tossed a small bottle of iron filings to Xia Xin.

Xia Xin felt it looked familiar but didn’t recognize it, "What’s this, Great Ancestor?"

"Oh, it’s the gold dust scraped off from him," Jiangli said expressionlessly as he walked out.

Xia Xin’s eyes nearly popped out in alarm, and as he turned back to look, he saw the ancestral statue still there, thankfully not turning its face again.

Xia Xin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling uneasy as he said, "Great Ancestor, you... how could you... "

"What else could I do? To suppress evil spirits, all my previous treasures were squandered by you and your grandchild, I could only scrape some from him." Jiangli knew what he was going to say and preemptively avoided blame, seizing the initiative, "Whose fault is all this?"

Xia Xin: "..."

Although, still...

Ever since he could remember, Jiaoyang Temple had no money.

All those treasures and magical artifacts, those courtyards, he had never seen them, never enjoyed them...

But...

He did not dare argue with Jiangli and was rendered speechless.

Jiangli dusted off the remaining incense ash from his hands and said, "Let’s go, let’s set off."

Xia Xin responded with a ’yes’, holding a pile of things, and followed Jiangli, they both left together.

They called for a car, which soon arrived to pick them up and take them to the outskirts of the city.

When they arrived, it was already 5 o’clock in the evening.

The Yin Energy in the entire burial ground was even more chillingly cold.

The driver was a bit puzzled when he dropped them off at such a remote location, "This place is so desolate, young girl, what are you doing here?"

"We have some business here." Xia Xin gave a smile, brushed it off, scanned a QR code with his phone to pay the fare, "Thank you, driver."

Drivers are shrewd people, seeing that he didn’t want to talk more, he didn’t ask any further questions.

After Jiangli and Xia Xin got out of the car, the driver drove away.
