The Feng family's environment is quite good. It is laid out according to the Bagua Feng Shui principles, which is conducive to gathering and retaining auspicious energy. Not only is there no problem with the Feng Shui, but it is also very good, which is very beneficial to the development of the family and future generations.

The Feng family estate was very large. Yuan Qi walked around but didn't find anything wrong. An hour and a half later, Yuan Qi stood motionless in front of the Feng family's ancestral temple.

Feng Aotian, his wife, and Feng Caiyi were all on edge, exchanging glances and suspecting that there was something wrong with the family temple, or ancestral hall.

When many members of the Feng family heard that the head of the family and his wife were accompanying a guest around, they guessed that a master had come to their house again, so they all came out to see what was going on. They stood at a distance and noticed that the person looking at the feng shui today was a child, so they asked each other who he was.

Feng Caiyi tentatively asked, "Seventh Sister, is there a problem with the ancestral hall? You've been looking at it for a long time, do you want to go in and take a look?"

Yuan Qi hummed in agreement and then asked a rather abrupt question: "Who are the deities enshrined in the ancestral hall?"

This question left the Feng family members completely bewildered. Feng Aotian replied, "Naturally, it's the ancestors of the Feng family."

Yuan Qi looked at Feng Aotian: "Aren't there any outsiders? For example... someone in the Feng family who doesn't have a son and has adopted or taken in someone."

"Hiss—" Feng Aotian felt a chill run down his spine. He had a bad feeling because there really was such a person enshrined in the ancestral hall, but...

"Why would Miss Seven ask such a question? Could it be that there is really something wrong with the ancestral hall?"

Yuan Qi shook his head slightly: "I can't tell yet. We need to go in and take a look, and we need to go in at night. We won't go in now, it wouldn't be good if we alerted them."

These words sent chills down the spines of the Feng family. The Feng family had been plagued by misfortune in recent years, and the descendants of the Feng family held the ancestral hall in high regard, hoping that their ancestors would bless their home with peace and prosperity for their descendants. Could it be that their ancestors were causing this?

"Is the Feng family's ancestral grave far away?" Yuan Qi asked again. She already had some doubts, but she wasn't sure and wanted to take a look.

"It's not far, only an hour outside the city." Feng Aotian's expression was serious. "Shall we go now?"

Yuan Qi raised his hand: "No, go tomorrow. Find some servants with strong birth charts and prepare to dig up the grave tomorrow."

Feng Aotian was taken aback. Although he was the head of the Feng family, he still needed to discuss such a major matter as disturbing the ancestral graves with the elders. The fact that they said tomorrow meant they were giving him half a day to persuade the elders.

"Alright, but this matter is of great importance and needs to be discussed with the clan elders. Why don't you stay here for now, Miss Seven?"

Yuan Qi hummed in agreement: "Thank you for your trouble."

Madam Feng and Feng Caiyi led Yuan Qi away to the guest room. As soon as Yuan Qi turned around, he saw a pregnant woman among the onlookers not far away. He stared at her for a few moments and indeed, the woman had a faint ghostly aura about her.

Yuan Qi said nothing, walked over directly, and took a closer look at the woman.

Feng Caiyi said, "This is my sister-in-law. She married into the family two years ago and was already seven months pregnant. A few days ago, she was feeling unwell and almost miscarried. So I gave her the amulet that your brother had on him, and she was fine after resting for two days."

"Sister-in-law, this is the seventh young lady of the Jiang family. She has some Taoist skills."

Bai Yulan gave a kind smile, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. To become a guest of honor of the family head at such a young age, she must be very capable: "Greetings, Seventh Miss."

Yuan Qi looked at Bai Yulan and saw that she had a kind face and was lucky. Otherwise, how could she have obtained Jiang Juncai's protective charm?

She thought the baby in her belly should be safe, so she smiled sweetly and said, "I wonder if Sister-in-law Feng would be interested in chatting with me for a while?"

Bai Yulan touched her belly, glanced at Feng Caiyi and her mother-in-law, and then agreed.

Madam Feng, worried about her daughter-in-law's unborn child, also went along.

Even if Yuan Qi is very capable, he is still a child. Madam Feng had people prepare fruits, snacks, dried meat and other treats, which were served one dish after another. Yuan Qi did not stand on ceremony and ate while staring at Bai Yulan's belly.

She curiously touched it and found that the fetal movement was normal, indicating that the baby in her womb was healthy.

Madam Feng felt a little uncomfortable seeing a young girl touching a pregnant woman's belly. Could it be that this young girl knew about women's affairs?

Yuan Qi swallowed the snack in his mouth and asked, "Sister-in-law Feng, have you had any strange dreams last night?"

Bai Yulan touched her belly and thought for a moment: "A few days ago... the day before my sister's wedding, I did have a nightmare. I dreamt that an old man came to my room and wanted to take my son away. I didn't let him and even scolded him. The next day I had abdominal pain and some spotting, so I couldn't go to my sister's wedding."

Madam Feng quickly nodded and said, "That's right. I was also very worried those two days, fearing that the child would not survive. I asked my husband to invite the imperial physician from the palace, and I personally took care of the child. That's how we managed to keep the baby. However, Yulan still complained of abdominal pain. It wasn't until my son-in-law sent someone to deliver a peace talisman, which Yulan carried with her, that the abdominal pain stopped. At the time, I didn't think the peace talisman was effective; I thought it was the imperial physician's medicine that worked."

Yuan Qi confirmed his suspicions: the successive deaths of the Feng family children must be due to the evil spirits of some ancestor in the ancestral hall.

"Do you still remember what the old man looked like?" Yuan Qi asked Bai Yulan.

Bai Yulan shook her head: "I couldn't see clearly in the dream. His face was very blurry. I could only vaguely make out that he was no less than sixty or seventy years old. Seventh Miss, could it be that someone really came to take your life?"

“It’s not taking a life, it’s capturing a soul.” Yuan Qi’s face also turned cold. Anyone who can capture the soul of a fetus must be related to the underworld officials. This is no small matter. There are no fewer than a hundred underworld officials in the capital. It will be quite troublesome to investigate.

The three members of the Feng family changed their expressions, especially Madam Feng, who felt a chill run down her spine and was terrified at the thought: "Seventh Miss, are you saying that the children who died young in the Feng family in recent years were all possessed by someone?"

Yuan Qi neither confirmed nor denied: "We'll have to wait until tonight to see. But don't worry, this person's cultivation level isn't high yet, otherwise even a peace talisman wouldn't have been able to stop him. As long as he appears, I can catch him."

Madam Feng was restless. She still couldn't believe that the truth behind the death of the Feng family's child was this. She simply couldn't accept it.

She felt that the clan elders had to know about this, otherwise they probably wouldn't agree to disturb the ancestral graves.

"Yulan, Caiyi, you two stay with the Seventh Miss. I have something to attend to." After giving these instructions, Madam Feng left.

Yuan Qi didn't stop her. She could guess what Madam Feng was going to do and what kind of deal the Feng family ancestors could make with the underworld officials. There must be something wrong with the ancestral graves, so the matter of the ancestral graves had to be discussed properly.

Both Bai Yulan and Feng Caiyi found it unbelievable, especially Bai Yulan, who was very worried about the child in her womb. She took out her amulet and showed it to Yuan Qi: "Look, the color of the amulet has faded. Can it still be used?"
