"In a house in Life and Death Lane, there are three daughters." Nangong Xi said.

"Three daughters, it's them, my uncle and his family." Old man Mai looked at the sword in his hand with tears streaming down his face.

"Your uncle? Then they have been dead for many years." Nangong Xi was a little surprised.

I originally thought he was Old Man Mai’s brother, but unexpectedly he was actually his uncle.

"Dad, didn't you say that my great-grandfather and his family disappeared suddenly? How come they appeared in Life and Death Alley?" Mai Yin was very surprised.

"I don't know about that." Old Man Mai nodded.

"It's a pity that Life and Death Alley has turned into the ruins it once was. Otherwise, you could go and take a look at the yard where they used to live." Nangong Xi sighed.

"This sword is the ancestral sword of our Mai family. It is usually passed down to the eldest son. It was passed down to my uncle in my father's generation." Old Man Mai said, looking at the sword in his hand.

"Your uncle's family only had three girls. Logically speaking, if they hadn't disappeared, this sword would have been passed into your hands?" Nangong Xi looked at Old Man Mai.

"No, my father is the youngest. If my eldest uncle's family had not suddenly disappeared, the throne would have been passed on to my second uncle's eldest son, who is also my cousin." Old Man Mai replied.

"Then your second uncle's family..." Nangong Xi looked at Old Man Mai.

"My second uncle's family was wiped out in a disaster, including my parents. From then on, Mai Mei and I were the only ones left in the family to depend on each other." Old man Mai sighed.

He hadn't thought about these things for a long time. When he suddenly saw the sword today, all his memories came flooding back.

"Then your Mai family is quite miserable." Nangong Xi couldn't help but complain.

Old Man Mai: ...

I'm so sad, Xier, can't you comfort me?

Everyone:...

Although what Miss Nangong said was true, why did it sound so strange?

"Xier, thank you for sending it back." Old Man Mai's eyes were full of gratitude.

"You're welcome. Your uncle's family has all been reincarnated. You don't have to worry about them." Nangong Xi smiled and shook her head.

"Their souls have been trapped in the Alley of Life and Death for so many years. I guess it was Xier who helped them." Old Man Mai is a wise man.

"Yes, I was the one who sent all the resentful souls in the entire Life and Death Alley to the Reincarnation Platform." Nangong Xi nodded.

"Miss Nangong, do you mean that this Life and Death Alley will completely return to peace in the future?" Lord Yan said and looked at Nangong Xi.

"That's right, that's why I told you that you can rebuild Life and Death Lane, or maybe you can change it back to Happiness Lane." Nangong Xi nodded.

"Okay, after the reconstruction, the name will be changed back to Xingfu Lane." Lord Yan nodded.

"It's getting late, Lord Yan, I will go to the Lord's Mansion tomorrow." Nangong Xi looked at the sky and said.

"Okay." Lord Yan nodded.

Lord Yan was also in a hurry to go back. He had to go back and investigate first. It was most likely Yan Yu who caused Miss Nangong and the others to mistakenly enter the Alley of Life and Death.

Miss Nangong will definitely not let this matter go.

Lord Yan knew very well that the fact that Nangong Xi didn't ask this time didn't mean that she didn't care.

Most likely, she was hungry and didn't want to pursue these matters.

After Nangong Xi and the others left, Lord Yan also led his men back to the Lord's Mansion.

When Lord Yan returned to the mansion, he saw Yan Yu walking back and forth in the yard in a somewhat anxious manner.

"Yu'er..." Lord Yan called out.

Yan Yu was startled when she suddenly heard someone calling her.

"Dad, I heard something happened in Life and Death Alley?" Yan Yu looked worried.

"Yes, Yu'er, do you have anything to tell me?" Lord Yan said and looked at Yan Yu.

"No, Dad. What happened in Life and Death Alley?" Yan Yu pretended to be very calm.

"You really don't know?" Lord Yan continued to ask.

He felt that if Yan Yu could admit her mistake, he could take her to apologize to Nangong Xi now.

But Yan Yu didn't want to admit it at all!

"Where did you get the food box that you gave to the guards and the coachman?" Lord Yan asked directly.

"That food box? I asked my servants to make some snacks in that food box and asked them to distribute them to the beggars in East Street. I passed by there a few days ago and found that those beggars were very pitiful." Yan Yu said.

"Don't you know that there is a control spell in the snacks in that food box?" Lord Yan asked coldly.

"What control spell? Dad, what are you talking about? It's just an ordinary snack, how could there be a talisman?" Yan Yu was surprised.

"Yu'er, I hope this matter has nothing to do with you, otherwise, I can't save you." Lord Yan said and turned to walk towards his yard.

Yan Yu frowned as he watched Lord Yan leave.

She didn't expect that something she did so secretly would be discovered by someone.

Yan Yu hurried back to his yard.

She came to a room and closed the door.

She sat in the middle of the room and began to chant a spell, and as the formation flashed, a black figure appeared in the room.

"What do you want me for?" the black figure asked.

"Sir, the talisman has been exposed, and Nangong Xi and his companions entered the Alley of Life and Death, but they didn't die." Yan Yu said.

"Not dead? Impossible. Anyone who is alive will surely die once they enter the Alley of Life and Death." The black shadow said coldly.

"But they are really not dead, they are even intact." Yan Yu's face was full of certainty.

"Intact? Then there are only two possibilities. One is that they never entered the Alley of Life and Death. The other is that they died a long time ago, but their souls have materialized, and it is impossible to tell whether they are alive or not for the moment." said the black shadow.

"Sir, how can I distinguish them? Or, how can I expose them?" Yan Yu continued to ask.

"It's very easy to expose them. Just stick this talisman on her. As long as she is a soul, she will be exposed." After saying this, the black shadow handed Yan Yu a stack of talismans.

"Thank you, sir. I will definitely expose her." Yan Yu was excited after receiving the talisman.

The black shadow nodded at Yan Yu and disappeared again.

"Nangong Xi, I will definitely expose you this time." Yan Yu said with gritted teeth.

It seemed as if Nangong Xi had some deep hatred with her.

Nangong Xi and the others followed the Mai family all the way back to the Mai family.

"Xi'er, according to what the guard and the coachman said, your mistaken entry into the lord's mansion has something to do with her?" Mrs. Mai looked at Nangong Xi with some concern.

"It's not just a slight connection, it's all caused by her alone." Nangong Xi said.

"Then...she will definitely not give up. Xier, are you still going to the lord's mansion tomorrow?" Old Man Mai looked at Nangong Xi.

"What are you afraid of? I'm just worried that she won't cause me trouble." Nangong Xi smiled when he heard that.
