Xia Xin, Fu'er, and Liao Qianqian immediately followed Jiangli and hurried to the backyard.
They silently exited through the yard's back gate.
There was a reasonably large garden and driveway, as well as an artificial lake.
Beside the artificial lake, there was also a man-made garden.
Upon emerging, Jiangli immediately sensed a trace of unusual spiritual energy drifting from that garden.
She strode towards it.
At this moment.
Behind a shrubbery in the depths of the garden, Master Mu sat cross-legged on the ground, facing the direction of the Fu Family with Copper Coins, Vermilion Cotton Thread, Talisman Paper, a Compass, and a Soul Summoning Talisman all prepared in his hands.
Those unaware might think he was conducting some ancient sacrificial ritual.
