The old woman's words made Chen Miao's body stiffen for an instant.
He almost felt the urge to flee.
But when he saw that the old woman bore him no ill will whatsoever, he realized this probably had nothing to do with him!
"What's going on?"
Chen Miao couldn't help asking.
Beside him, Zheng Cuicui gave him a strange look, then shook her head.
"I don't know, but I know that old woman. Master spoke with her before. She's a Spirit Medium."
"A Spirit Medium?"
Chen Miao recalled what little he knew about Spirit Mediums.
He knew very little, only that this branch of yin cultivation involved summoning souls. His own Soul-Summoning Technique also had some connection to the profession.
But why had this old woman mentioned Otherworldly Fiends?
Everyone present shared Chen Miao's confusion.
Naturally, Lin Yan had no kind expression for someone who had suddenly appeared to disrupt the proceedings.
He floated down to the edge of the stone mill plaza and regarded the old woman coolly. "Colluding with Otherworldly Fiends? Why don't you explain how I've colluded with them?"
"If you can't, we'll have to have a proper discussion about the consequences of slandering the Lin Family."
The old woman looked at Lin Yan without any change in expression, which gave him pause.
"Very well! Before that, may I ask whether anyone from the Demon-Suppressing Bureau is here?"
As soon as she spoke, Qi Guang emerged from the crowd and came to her side.
"I'm the Deputy Bureau Chief of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau in Jiangya County."
The old woman looked at Qi Guang and nodded.
"With Bureau Chief Qi here as witness, Lin Family Ancestor, I have a few questions I'd like you to answer."
"Ask."
Lin Yan stood with his hands behind his back, watching her.
