Seeing the situation was not going well, Miaoqiu hurriedly stood between the two and smoothed things over, saying, "Lin Tian, don't make things difficult for my uncle. Please wait outside calmly, and we'll go in and take a look first, alright?"
"Hmm, I think this is a feasible plan," Xu Beishan agreed. He was chilled by Lin Tian's gaze, and since Miaoqiu was offering a way out, he naturally followed.
Lin Tian glanced at the Xu Family's ancestral shrine again, nodding, "Alright, but I hope you do it quickly."
Miaoqiu also understood the urgency of the situation, and after greeting Xu Beishan, she walked towards the shrine.
"Third Uncle, don't you feel something's wrong? Why are the incense candles in the shrine so dim today?" Miaoqiu asked.
The Xu Family's ancestral shrine had someone tending to the incense candles every day, day and night. Letting the incense burn out was not only disrespectful to the ancestors but also considered very unlucky.
