Jiang Ji frowned. "Twelve lanterns again."
Jiang Chi added, "There are lanterns outside the ancestral hall, lanterns inside the ancestral hall, and lanterns here. The person who designed the ancestral hall really liked lanterns and the color red."
Jiang Ji shuddered. "Red represents blood."
The bright red lanterns swayed, as if applauding the new faces.
Thump thump—!
The stone wall cast a large shadow, forming a statue with a round, flat head and a huge mouth that ran from the scalp to the neck.
Lin Xi's gaze darkened slightly. "The shadow is exactly the same as the statue that Old Master Jiang worships."
The large red lantern flew into the statue's mouth, bursting with a dazzling red light, as vibrant as thick, fresh blood.

Jiang Ji exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap! The Jiang family ancestral hall has so many hidden secrets, including dragon veins and formations."
Jiang Chi whispered, "Stealing dragon energy, trapping the souls of the Jiang family members, strange statues... I think I understand."
Jiang Ji looked completely bewildered. "What do you understand?"
The words had barely left his mouth when a deafening cacophony of footsteps shook the space violently.
Not far away, something strange was quietly approaching.
