The moment he uttered the words "I believe you," it almost drained all of Chu Tianxiong's strength.

The others present didn't speak, but they nodded in agreement, though their movements were a little stiff.

Ling Feng casually put his phone back in his pocket.

Looking at the group of middle-aged people whose expressions kept changing, he calmly joked:

"Should we get it authenticated? That way you won't suspect the video was deliberately faked."

"No need!" Chu Tianxiong let out a long breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

"Since you dare to say that, I believe you have no reason to do it!"

Besides, all of these victims are here; we just didn't believe it before!

"That's good!" Ling Feng nodded, quite satisfied with his father-in-law's understanding and sensible nature.

Chu Tianxiong composed himself, suppressed his surging emotions, and asked with a somewhat puzzled expression:

"Didn't you tell them last night to find some experts as soon as possible to deal with this vengeful ghost?"

"Is there a problem?" Ling Feng asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Since you can detect this filth, it means you're no ordinary person!"

"and then?"

"Why don't you solve it yourself?"

"If I could solve it myself, why bother with all this extra work?"

Chu Tianxiong's face quickly darkened, and his tone became somewhat impatient:

"I heard from Lianxin that you were the one who scared away the evil spirit last night?"

Now you're telling me you have no way to deal with that vengeful ghost? Do you think I'd believe that?

Ling Feng sat calmly on the sofa, his expression showing no sign of panic as he faced Chu Tianxiong's questioning gaze.

"As you said yourself, I only scared it away. Scaring it away and being able to deal with it are two different things!"

Chu Tianxiong stared intently at Ling Feng: "So... you're no match for that vengeful ghost?"

Ling Feng rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Just consider it... sort of!"

Chu Tianxiong had nothing more to say at this point, and gently tapped the coffee table.

His expression turned very serious: "The kind of expert you're talking about is hard to find!"

Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise on his face:

"With your network and resources, can't you find a suitable candidate?"

Chu Tianxiong shook his head, a troubled look appearing on his face:

"It's not because we can't find people; given our social circle..."

In terms of connections, it's not like we can't reach some talented and extraordinary people.

The difficulty lies in... we simply cannot distinguish the people we've brought in.

Is it just empty fame, or does it have real skills?

You know how serious this situation is; if it's not handled properly, it could lead to a huge tragedy!

Hearing this, Ling Feng fell silent, forced to admit that it was indeed a problem.

"So? What do you want me to do?"

"Since you're not... cough cough..."

Chu Tianxiong considered his words carefully and felt that he couldn't be so blunt.

After thinking for a moment, he changed his approach: "Do you have any senior figures in your sect who could introduce you?"

Ling Feng's forehead immediately creased with annoyance. His father-in-law clearly looked down on him!

So he simply and decisively refused, saying, "No!"

"You must have fellow disciples, right?"

"No!"

"you……"

"Really, no!"

Seeing Ling Feng's unusually resolute attitude, Chu Tianxiong decided not to continue the topic.

She sighed softly, a faint sorrow lingering between her brows.

"Is there really no other way to deal with that vengeful ghost besides seeking help from a master?"

"Not at the moment!"

Ling Feng glanced at Chu Lianxin and the others indifferently, and his previous nonchalant attitude became somewhat more restrained.

Chu Tianxiong's brows furrowed suddenly, clearly dissatisfied with Ling Feng's answer:

What do you mean by "not available for the time being"?

"The literal meaning!"

Ling Feng looked up and met Chu Tianxiong's angry gaze. However, he did not back down.

Chu Tianxiong seemed to understand somewhat: "How long will this take?"

"Two or three days!"

"Why do we have to wait two or three days?" Chu Tianxiong's brows were furrowed with seriousness and anxiety.

"Feel free to make any requests you may have!"

"I don't have any requirements."

"Ten million!"

Ling Feng shook his head: "It's not about the money."

Chu Tianxiong's face immediately turned cold, and he raised the price again: "Twenty million!"

Ling Feng sighed: "I already said..."

"Fifty million!" Chu Tianxiong had lost his patience and immediately added thirty million.

Ling Feng was quite exasperated: "Can you let me finish what I have to say?"

Faced with the ever-increasing amount, he was almost defeated by his father-in-law's money power.

Although the number was very tempting, he managed to suppress his inner turmoil.

It's always best to act within your capabilities; take on only the tasks that are within your abilities.

If something is beyond your control, no matter how tempting it may be, you should not act rashly.

His future is very promising, and we must not let this small gain cause him to suffer a setback.

After calming himself down, Ling Feng explained solemnly:

"It's not that I intentionally refused to help, nor is it that I really can't deal with that vengeful ghost."

However… I'm experiencing some health issues! This means I'm genuinely unable to take action for the time being!

"What do you mean by that?"

Chu Tianxiong sat up abruptly, his anger becoming very obvious.

"Why would your body suddenly develop problems?"

Ling Feng's expression also turned cold, and his words revealed a hint of estrangement and dissatisfaction.

"Are you convinced that I'm lying and deliberately trying to avoid helping?"

Chu Tianxiong remained silent for a moment, but his attitude remained unfriendly: "That's not what I meant!"

"That's not what you meant? Then what do you mean?" Ling Feng's tone was quite forceful.

Chu Tianxiong keenly sensed the tense atmosphere and almost flew into a rage.

However, when he thought of his daughter's life and safety, he forced himself to restrain himself and suppress his anger.

After carefully examining Ling Feng once more, he finally toned down his previous aggressive demeanor.

"Sorry, I misspoke!"

Chu Tianxiong took two deep breaths, trying to soften his tone as much as possible:

"I only have one daughter, Lianxin, so... I'm a bit emotional."

"Alright, you don't need to explain this to me!" Ling Feng waved his hand, his expression softening.

"You don't need to worry about Lianxin's safety! She lives with me, and I will protect her."

"Phew...that's good..."

"What do you mean by 'that's good'?"

Just as Chu Tianxiong was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the others around him started shouting loudly!

"Old Chu, you fucking explain yourself clearly, what do you mean by 'that's good'?"

"That's right! Your daughter has your son-in-law protecting her, but what about my child?"
