Yan Di reached out and pulled Song Mengmeng, who had rushed towards him, into his arms. He sighed helplessly and whispered to the little girl who was still swaying restlessly in his arms, "Don't move!"

"Shall we go now?" Song Mengmeng shook Yan Di's arm impatiently, chirping like a lively little bird in his ear!

The familiar warmth and softness embraced me, sweet like a little milk cake, easily tempting me to take a bite.

Yan Di indulged the little one's fussing on him, and after a while, he slowly raised his hand and put a purple candy in her mouth: "Good girl, rest for a while, we'll be there soon!"

Before the sweet minty flavor could even fully develop in Song Mengmeng's mouth, she found herself being led by Yan Di to an abandoned three-story building.

I don’t know if it’s because this little building is associated with so many legends, but when you approach it in the night, even before you go inside, you can feel a strange sense of gloom.

However, this little atmosphere did not affect Song Mengmeng's cheerful mood. She broke free from Yan Di's embrace and ran towards the dilapidated courtyard before Yan Di could even stand up properly.

The dilapidated courtyard gate was rusty, and the half-open side was in a terrible state. The iron chain wrapped around it was also rusty. Wavy grass, half a person tall, grew wildly in the yard. If it weren't for the cement walkway in the middle, it would be difficult for outsiders to enter the house.

Song Mengmeng walked along the moss-covered cement walkway until she reached the front door of the small building before stopping.

Because film crews often come here to shoot scenes, many of the decorations here have a somewhat eerie feel. For example, the dilapidated wooden door at the entrance of the small building makes a strange creaking sound with just a light push.

With light steps, Song Mengmeng quickly climbed the stairs to the second floor. Relying on her unique and keen sense of evil spirits, she walked along the long corridor with almost no effort and stopped at the bathroom door at the end of the corridor.

The mirror facing us was covered with a thick layer of dust because it hadn't been cleaned or wiped for a long time; at this moment, it was so blurry that only a blurry figure could be seen reflected in it.

Song Mengmeng stared at herself in the mirror for a long while before slowly nodding, seemingly talking to herself, "So that's how it is!"

Actually, after hearing Bai Wei's story, her initial thought was that the spirit of the deceased anchor, Zhu Yujie, had taken over Su Lingge's body and gradually usurped it, wanting to completely eliminate Su Lingge.

However, there is one thing that doesn't make sense.

Zhu Yujie is a newly deceased soul. Without any opportunity, it is impossible for her to suddenly possess the power of possession!

Moreover, that evil spirit has far more than one unresolved karmic debt. The black resentment and evil thoughts it possesses are definitely not something that a simple undead spirit could have!

Now that she's here and sees this mirror, the mystery that had been troubling her has naturally been solved!

The evil spirit dwelling in this mirror is the true culprit behind all these calamities!

The exact reason is now unclear, but judging from the remaining traces here, it was probably that live broadcast that, for some reason, disturbed the evil spirit in this mirror. It rushed out and first devoured the unprepared Zhu Yujie, and then quickly disappeared and entered Su Lingge's body.

Her initial idea was probably to possess Su Lingge's body and leave, but for some reason, she couldn't easily devour Su Lingge's soul. So, her upper body became a difficult situation to overcome.

Of course, in the end, the evil spirit seized control of the body and gradually devoured Su Lingge's soul. If she had discovered it any later, and the evil spirit had completely devoured Su Lingge's soul and taken control of the body, then what she would do next would truly be anyone's guess!

"What do you want to do?" Yan Di appeared behind Song Mengmeng at some point, looking at the filthy mirror in front of them with her, and asked the little cub in a low voice about his plans.

"Is there another option?" Song Mengmeng tilted her head; a good student always asks questions when she doesn't understand.

If she were still in the old world, she would definitely go to Sister Qilin and the others to ask for clarification without hesitation. But now, all that's left is this wicked beast in front of her!

Besides, he's my partner, so who else should I go to?!

"Although they are all called evil spirits, there are big differences between them. Some evil spirits have a straightforward cause-and-effect relationship. You can directly eliminate them and eat their demon pearls or ghost pearls, and at the same time, you can absorb the reward of the power of merit given to you by the Heavenly Dao. However, some evil spirits are not evil spirits or malevolent spirits from the beginning."

If you can understand the root cause and effect of this, just like when you helped Bai Wei deal with that ghost infant, the rewards you receive will be far greater than if you had simply subdued and eaten it.

Emperor Yan patiently answered Song Mengmeng's questions. He reached out and rubbed the top of Song Mengmeng's head, explaining the differences to her in a low voice.

Song Mengmeng listened very attentively, not even noticing when Yan Di stroked her ahoge twice. The girl frowned tightly and thought for a long time before saying, "So you mean that this evil spirit was not originally a creature that harmed living beings, but was forced to become what it is now for some reason!"

If I want to gain more power, I can't just act recklessly. I should find out the cause and effect of the matter, set things right, and ensure that everyone gets what they deserve!

"That's right. The appearance of the evil spirit itself is a violation of the rules of this world, but existence is its own justification. Since it has appeared, the subsequent handling must follow the rules of this world!"

It's true that you directly suppressed the evil spirit, but the damage the evil spirit suffered before is also a fact. So if the source of evil is not eliminated, no matter how many evil spirits are killed, the final result will only be treating the symptoms, not the root cause!

The evil spirit was wrong, but that doesn't mean those who drove it to this point can go unpunished and continue their evil deeds!

Yan Di's voice was gentle, and his deep, magnetic voice had a seductive power: "Mengmeng, I will tell you whatever you want to know. As you grow stronger, you will find that this world is far more complex and interesting than you imagined!"
