So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Liuzhu and Liuying nodded when they heard this. They knew this was the only way at the moment.

So they found three maids who were alone.

Under Ling Jiuan's command, they quickly and silently tied up the maids and changed their clothes.

Ling Jiuan even used his disguise pill to slightly change the faces of the three people, making them look more realistic.

After finishing their dressing, the three of them looked at each other, and after confirming that everything was correct, they boldly walked towards the inner courtyard.

They tried their best to imitate the maids' manners and expressions so as not to be discovered.

However, the atmosphere in the inner courtyard was still weird and depressing.

They felt an invisible pressure, as if something was watching them in secret.

They moved around the inner courtyard, trying to avoid contact with guards and servants.

As they went deeper, the strange smell became stronger and stronger.

Ling Jiuan realized that they were getting closer and closer to the truth.

However, she also knew that danger was approaching step by step.

The three people who had used the Disguise Pill unexpectedly met Yu Lingxi before they had time to continue exploring.

Yu Lingxi was wearing gorgeous clothes and walking lightly towards them.

She looked at the three of them thoughtfully, with a hint of doubt and scrutiny in her eyes.

Discovered?

The three of them felt nervous, but they also knew that they had to remain calm at this moment and not reveal any flaws.

Yu Lingxi gave the order calmly.

"Didn't you say you don't need anyone to serve you? Go down, and don't blame me for punishing you if you come in again."

Although her voice was soft, it carried an unquestionable majesty.

But her heart relaxed after she looked at the three people carefully.

Maybe she was overthinking. The Yu family was like an iron barrel. How could outsiders get in?

The three of them looked at each other and secretly thanked their luck that their disguise and acting skills had not been discovered.

Then he retreated without changing his expression.

"Yes, ma'am."

After the three people left, Yu Lingxi stood alone in the empty courtyard with a puzzled look on his face.

Her eyes slowly swept around, finally stopping on the quaint and solemn house not far away, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

After a moment's silence, Yu Lingxi slowly turned around and faced the two guards standing at the door. Although her voice was soft, it carried unquestionable majesty and coldness.

"No one is allowed to approach this yard. Anyone who disobeys my order will be killed immediately!"

This sentence was like a blast of ice, instantly freezing the air around them. It also shocked the two guards, who quickly bowed their heads in agreement, their eyes full of awe.

Following the guard's response, Yu Lingxi turned his gaze towards the room again.

After a long time, she took a step and slowly walked into the house.

The door closed gently, isolating all the noise and disturbance from the outside world, leaving only the quietness and solemnity in the house.

After hearing the news, Mr. Wei couldn't help feeling a little worried. He knew Yu Lingxi's character very well and was afraid that something had happened again.

So he came hurriedly, his steps were a bit hurried, his brows full of concern for the eldest lady.

"Miss, why do you have to give such a harsh order?"

As Mr. Wei spoke, he walked quickly into the yard, quickly glanced around, and only felt relieved after confirming that there was nothing unusual.

Yu Lingxi was standing in the yard with her back to Mr. Wei. When she heard his voice, she slowly turned around, a look of sudden enlightenment appearing on her face.

"Mr. Wei, I forgot that there are restrictions in this courtyard, and those maids and guards can't enter."

She said softly, with a hint of self-mockery and relief in her tone.

She didn't know what was wrong with her today, and she always felt a little uneasy.

Mr. Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but then he reminded him again.

"Miss, although the ban can keep outsiders out, it is better to have them strengthen their guard. After all, human hearts are unpredictable, so it is always better to take precautions."

Yu Lingxi nodded and agreed with it.

"Mr. Wei is right. I was too nervous. I will have them increase patrols to ensure the safety of the yard."

She had obviously realized her mistake.

Ling Jiuan and his companions passed through the winding corridors, avoided the busy main road of the mansion, and finally found a courtyard where the servants lived.

Compared with other places, this place seems more simple and plain, but because it lacks some prosperity, it has a rare tranquility.

They looked around and made sure that no one else was around, then quietly slipped into a seemingly empty room.

As soon as they entered the door, Liuzhu and Liuying couldn't wait to exhale a breath, and the breath they had been holding was finally released.

"Master, this is too scary."

Liu Zhu whispered, with a slight tremor in his voice.

Liuying also nodded and held Liuzhu's hand tightly.

Ling Jiuan seemed relatively calm and she narrowed her eyes.

Her intuition told her that the courtyard that Yu Lingxi had strictly forbidden anyone from approaching must be hiding an unknown secret.

"There must be something strange about that yard."

He recalled what happened to the Cheng family. At that time, they accidentally discovered a hidden secret, which resulted in endless troubles and dangers.

Now, the strange atmosphere emanating from this yard makes him think of those unpleasant past events.

"Who knows, just like the Cheng family back then, they might be hiding something dirty."

Ling Jiuan continued, her eyes becoming unusually solemn.

Liuying's gaze was fixed on Ling Jiuan's face, her eyes full of worry and uneasiness.

"Master, if the Yu family is really a demon cultivator like Cheng Xuan, this matter will be very difficult."

Ling Jiuan frowned when she heard this, for she knew very well that Liuying's worries were not groundless.

They still remember what happened to Cheng Xuan. The cultivator who once seemed to be upright was actually a cruel and ruthless demon cultivator who brought disaster and suffering to countless people.

If the Yu family also went astray in the same way, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Young Master Lei and the Lei Xiao Sect probably have no chance of winning."

She knew that Lei Xiao Sect, as a major righteous sect, had always been committed to eradicating evil cultivators and protecting the people.

But if the Yu family really becomes the nest of evil cultivators, then the Lei Xiao Sect will have almost no chance of winning.

Ling Jiuan also knew this, but the more this was the case, the more she couldn't ignore it.

"If the Yu family has really become the lair of the demon cultivators, then we must bring them to justice even if we have to do everything we can."
