Lan Yao leaned against the big tree for a while to catch her breath, and then climbed a distance further before finally arriving near the Lan family's ancestral graves. She didn't go any closer, but instead found the nearest tree and climbed it.

The Lan family's ancestral graves had probably only been renovated recently; there were few weeds around them, and the tombstones were clean and tidy.

Lan Yao withdrew her gaze, closed her eyes, and released her mental energy. She quickly found what she wanted in several locations near the Lan family's ancestral graves.

There are many things hidden in the Lan family's ancestral graves. There are hundreds of sealed wooden boxes, as well as hundreds of other small wooden boxes and other miscellaneous items.

After Lan Yao finished packing up, her face was a little pale, probably because she had used too much mental energy.

There's nothing she can do; her body is too weak right now, and she's been through a lot of torture lately, leaving her completely depleted. Even though she used nutritional supplements to forcibly stabilize her constitution, the lost vital energy is still gone, and she can only make up for it later.

Lan Yao drank a spirit-replenishing potion to recover, then headed to the residence responsible for guarding the Lan family ancestral tombs. She remembered finding this place in Old Master Lan's memories. Besides this place, there was another secret location deep in these desolate mountains where the Lan family's treasures were hidden. These were the only treasure troves outside the city, but there were three more treasure troves within the city.

It is evident how thoroughly the Lan family implemented the principle of having three burrows.

After Lan Yao finished collecting the treasures the Lan family had hidden outside the city, she decided to take the opportunity, since she had come all this way, to visit the ancestral graves of the Qian and Xu families.

Following the Lan family's tradition of hiding treasures, they searched through the ancestral graves of the Qian and Xu families, as well as other nearby places where things could be hidden, resulting in a great harvest.

After a busy half-day, as the sun began to set, Lan Yao hummed a little tune and prepared to head down the mountain to leave. Just then, Lan Yao keenly heard a sound coming from afar.

Lan Yao instinctively climbed up a big tree and hid among the leaves. After a while, the voice came from afar and approached. Lan Yao heard a man say, "Brother Wang, you are really too smart. How did you figure out that the Wang family's treasure trove is in this graveyard?"

The man called Brother Wang revealed a smug expression: "What's so special about this? I was just trying to trick their youngest son, but I didn't expect that chubby kid to actually reveal his family's treasure."

"Brother Wang is really something. But why did we hide the things we confiscated at the Wang family's place? Won't they find out?"

Brother Wang: "Are you stupid? Only a few of us brothers know about this. This place is safe for now. We'll move the stuff to another place after Wang the Rich and the others are sent down to the countryside."

"Brother Wang is so smart. But Brother Wang, do you think we could do a few more of these kinds of jobs?"

Brother Wang: "Of course, no problem. I've heard rumors that the higher-ups are planning some kind of campaign targeting these wealthy families. At that time..."

Brother Wang smiled somewhat strangely: "How much benefit we can gain depends on the abilities of us brothers."

"Then naturally I will follow Brother Wang."

Brother Wang: "You can't let this get out. Keep your mouth shut. Otherwise, we won't get any benefits."

The younger brother nodded: "Brother Wang, don't worry."

As Lan Yao watched them walk further and further away, their voices growing increasingly faint, she thought for a moment and then quietly followed them.

Lan Yao vaguely remembered the so-called Brother Wang who was talking about Wang the Rich. She had just been brought to the Lan family and had been ridiculed by Wang the Rich, who said that Lan Yao was a bastard that the Lan family had picked up from somewhere.

Lan Yao glared back fiercely, and Wang the rich man smiled and told Old Master Lan to gouge out her eyes so he could soak them in wine; otherwise, keeping them would only make him a laughingstock.

Since she had encountered them, Lan Yao naturally couldn't let it go. She tiptoed behind the group and, taking advantage of their inattention, released her mental energy, using it to extract a lot of interesting information from their memories.

After Lan Yao emptied the Wang family's ancestral graves, she implanted many nightmares into those people's lives. These were nightmares of vengeful ghosts seeking revenge, a form of punishment that would allow them to harm others at will.

After Lan Yao finished doing all this, she returned to the city before dark. She found a sheltered alley to rest for a while, and after it was completely dark, she disguised herself and went to the Qian family's house. She then used her mental power to begin emptying the Qian family's property.

Just as they were about to move into the larger house, Lan Yao heard the voices coming from the couple in the larger house.

Old Master Qian: "Today was truly a day of terrible luck. Because of that couple from the second wife's side, our whole family suffered an undeserved disaster."

The eldest son's wife sneered: "Didn't you think the second son's wife was gentle and understanding before? You even wanted to take her son and raise him yourself."

Qian Laoda: "Who told you not to have a son? I just wanted to have a little interest in my nephew and you're full of complaints. Look at the second brother's wife. Back when she couldn't have a son in the Lan family, didn't she also act subserviently and swallow her anger?"

Damn it, why is my genitals so itchy? My stomach is also aching slightly. That little bitch Lan Yao, I'm going to get someone to kill her.

Old Qian's wife: "You still have time to scold others? Let's hide more things outside. I heard..."

Lan Yao grew impatient and simply used her mental power to cover everyone in the Qian family. She then discovered that almost everyone in the Qian family's various branches had hidden things outside.

So, it's possible that other members of the Lan family are also hiding things outside? She didn't seem to use her mental power on the Lan family yesterday? She's clearly not good at this; what a loss.

So, after emptying the Qian family's house, Lan Yao took away the valuables that the Qian family had hidden outside, including their daily food supplies. Then she went to the Xu family's house and, after looting the Xu family's house, she also took everything outside the Xu family's house.

Finally, Lan Yao returned to the Lan family home, where the Lan family members were still awake most of the night!

All the younger male members of the Lan family were gathered in the main courtyard, sobbing and crying in front of Old Master Lan.

Yes, that's the kind of bitter crying that comes from being a baby.

"Grandpa, you must find that little slut Lan Yao."

"Yeah, yeah. I don't know what kind of drug that little slut gave me, but my lower body is so itchy and painful, and my stomach hurts too, sob sob sob."

"Grandpa, that little bitch Lan Yao said we can't be men anymore, is it true? Waaah."

Grandpa Lan looked at the younger generation below him, feeling utterly overwhelmed. Not only were the family's valuables and food lost, and no clues found, but these people were also giving him a headache.

"Didn't we have a doctor examine you? Didn't they say you were fine?"

"But it's so itchy, I really want to scratch!" The boy had barely finished speaking when he let out a scream, "I... I have freckles down there!"

He raised his hand, which was covered in a sticky mess. Upon seeing this, the boy immediately fainted.

Lan Yao sat on a tree branch, propping her chin up and thinking to herself: The effect is a bit slow.

She had thought that the young men of the Lan family would become bisexual by the afternoon.
