Nuoying, seeing Ye Miaomiao's reaction was somewhat unusual, couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Is there another reason why you're afraid of ghosts?"
Ye Miaomiao released Nuoying's arm, fell silent for a moment, and then replied, "Actually... it's because of some things that happened when I was little, which have made me terrified of ghosts and monsters."
"Things from when you were little?" Ye Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, "Can you tell us about it?"
Ye Miaomiao remained silent for a moment, then said, "Actually, I didn't grow up in the Wings of Freedom. Before joining the Wings of Freedom, I had a happy and fulfilling family."
"However, when I was five years old, I personally witnessed my parents being killed by a ghost..." As she spoke, Ye Miaomiao seemed to recall that terrifying night, and her body began to tremble violently.
"Killed by a ghost?" Hearing Ye Miaomiao's words, Ye Ling's brow furrowed slightly, realizing that this matter might not be as simple as he thought.
He had already scanned this planet with his divine soul. This world was a technologically advanced world with low martial arts. The strongest people could at most borrow some power from nature.
More importantly, this world had no underworld. When people died, their souls would naturally dissipate and return to nature.
In other words... there were no ghosts in this world, and not even creatures that were far beyond ordinary humans.
If Ye Miaomiao was not hallucinating or mistaken, it would mean that whoever killed Ye Miaomiao's parents was also an outsider.
Coupled with the fact that the Extinguishing World Spiritual Fire seemed to have discovered some secrets from this world, Ye Ling's keen intuition told him that this world might indeed hide a great secret.
To confirm his guess, Ye Ling asked Ye Miaomiao, "Are you sure it was a ghost? Not someone disguised as a ghost?"
Ye Miaomiao replied, "That thing might not have been a ghost... but it definitely couldn't have been human!"
"Can you describe its appearance?" Ye Ling asked again.
Ye Miaomiao replied, "It was a mass of black mist floating in the air... Inside the black mist, there were only a pair of large eyes, and it kept muttering strange words."
"Black mist... large eyes..."
Hearing Ye Miaomiao's words, Nuoying's heart skipped a beat. She immediately looked at Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, she's not talking about..."
Ye Ling thought the same as Nuoying. He used runes to simulate the eyes of a watcher and asked Ye Miaomiao, "Is what you saw like this?"
When Ye Miaomiao saw the watcher's eyes simulated by Ye Ling's runes, her eyes filled with boundless fear. "It... it's it! It's this ghost!"
Ye Miaomiao kept backing away, greatly stimulated.
"You don't need to be afraid, this is fake." Ye Ling dispersed the runes and immediately injected his spiritual power into Ye Miaomiao's body, calming her emotions.
Ye Ling's expression also became serious.
At first, Ye Ling just wanted to take Ye Miaomiao under his wing out of a whim, to make her a ruler of a world like Beima.
But he never expected that Ye Miaomiao would actually have a connection with the watchers!
Ye Miaomiao was just a nimble ordinary person. From any perspective, she shouldn't have any connection with the watchers!
Moreover, not to mention Ye Miaomiao, even this entire world... in Ye Ling's eyes, was not worth the attention of the watchers.
After all, this world was just an insignificant planet in the Tianyi Universe. In the entire Tianyi Universe, Ye Miaomiao's world was equivalent to a grain of sand in the desert.
And even the entire Tianyi Universe was merely a territory governed by a watcher...
But now, a watcher had specifically come to this planet and attacked Ye Miaomiao's parents. This was simply unbelievable!
Nuoying also had a serious expression and said to Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, the watcher from the Tianyi Universe has never personally descended upon any world. Even though our Winged God Clan's resistance army has been fighting that watcher, the watcher has never made a move himself."
"But now, a watcher has specifically come to this planet and attacked an ordinary family. There must be an extraordinary secret hidden within this!"
Although she didn't know the watcher's purpose, the fact that the watcher could come here indicated that, in the watcher's eyes, the problems here were even more important than the problems of the Winged God Clan's resistance army.
"Hmm... it seems we stumbled upon great fortune by chance."
Ye Ling took a deep breath, then asked Ye Miaomiao, whose emotions had stabilized, "Girl, can you describe what happened back then in detail?"
Ye Miaomiao replied, "I was hiding in a closet at the time and saw everything through the cracks. But I was too scared then, and I didn't remember anything except the ghost's appearance."
"Is that so..." Ye Ling pondered for a moment, then asked Ye Miaomiao again, "Do you mind if I look into your memories?"
"You... look at my memories?" Ye Miaomiao was stunned, not quite understanding what Ye Ling meant.
How could memories be seen?
Ye Ling patiently explained to Ye Miaomiao, "I have a method to pry into souls. Although you don't remember many things, everything you have seen is actually stored deep within your soul."
"Through my method, I can see all your memories... let alone things from your childhood, I can even see memories from when you were still in the womb."
"Is it that powerful..." Ye Miaomiao opened her mouth, finding the matter incredibly unbelievable.
However, she didn't doubt Ye Ling and began to hesitate.
Seeing Ye Miaomiao's hesitation, Ye Ling didn't urge her, but waited patiently.
After all, memories are a person's privacy. Everyone has secrets in their hearts. To allow others to see one's memories requires immense courage and trust.
Ye Miaomiao was not Ye Ling's enemy, and Ye Ling could not forcibly use soul-searching techniques on her.
Ye Miaomiao was silent for a moment, then looked at Ye Ling and asked, "Uncle... after you look at my memories, can you help me get revenge?"
Ye Ling replied, "I don't know if the watcher in your memory is still alive, nor do I know where he is. So I can't guarantee that I can help you get revenge, but what I can promise you is... I am mortal enemies with those guys."
"I've already killed more than ten creatures like the one in your memory."
"I understand..." Ye Miaomiao nodded. "Then I'll let you see my memories."
"Uncle, do I need to cooperate with anything?"
"You don't need to do anything, just relax." Ye Ling smiled at Ye Miaomiao and enveloped her entire body with his soul power.
Ye Miaomiao felt an unprecedented comfort. It was as if she were swimming in a warm ocean, completely relaxed, her soul open to Ye Ling.
Ye Miaomiao's memories unfolded before Ye Ling's eyes.
