Ghost Exorciser: The Oust Fake Heiress Strikes

Chapter 573: Enter Jade Bracelet

Philip quietly listened. Conrad thought for a moment before speaking again. "How about looking at it this way?"Philip raised his head. Conrad continued,

"Don’t force yourself to forget those memories. Instead, accept that the person in those memories no longer exists. The Thessy you loved belonged to your past. The Thessy standing in front of you today... is no longer the same person."

Philip gave a helpless smile. "Easy for you to say."

He leaned his head against the window. As he closed his eyes, countless memories flashed through his mind.

Thessy laughed and sometimes cried. She called him ’Brother.’

But mixed among those memories... another face gradually appeared. Lana.

Her calm expression. Her maturity. The countless times she had quietly endured everything without asking anyone for help.

His emotions became even more complicated.

.........

Meanwhile, back inside the vanity vehicle, Axel had completely recovered. More precisely, it was the healer’s ability that had purified the Ghost Energy contaminating his body.

After the treatment was finished, Lana quietly approached Axel. "Uncle."

Her voice was soft. "I need to speak with you privately."

Axel looked at her.

Judging from the seriousness in her eyes, he immediately realized that this matter was extremely important.

Without asking any questions, he first made sure that all of Lana’s classmates had returned to their own resting areas.

Only then did he guide Lana toward the innermost section of the vanity vehicle.

Hidden behind another sliding door was a completely separate room.

After locking the door behind them, Axel looked at Lana.

"So... What is it?"

Lana did not answer immediately. Instead, she slowly raised the jade bracelet on her wrist.

The bracelet emitted a gentle green glow.

The next moment... a small figure suddenly appeared before them. A little girl.

Axel’s eyes widened. Even Lana herself was stunned.

The little girl had completely transformed. Previously, she had messy black hair.

Her face had been covered with dirt. Her worn-out clothes were patched countless times.

Now... her long hair had turned a beautiful emerald green.

Her skin had become fair and flawless. She looked delicate, almost like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.

Even the tattered clothes she once wore had transformed into an elegant green dress embroidered with tiny golden vines.

Lana blinked several times. ’Is this because of the contract?’

Before she could ask, the little girl smiled and gently shook her head. "No, Master."

Lana looked surprised. "You can read my thoughts?"

The little girl smiled sheepishly. "Only a little."

Then she continued, "This change isn’t because of the contract."

Lana tilted her head. "Then why?"

The little girl happily replied, "I found this inside the jade bracelet."

Lana’s eyes widened.

"This jade bracelet? It has things stored inside it, too?"

The little girl nodded excitedly. "Master..."

Her beautiful green eyes sparkled.

"The inside isn’t just storage. It’s an entire paradise. There are endless grasslands. There are beautiful flowers. There are rivers. There are countless houses."

She clasped her hands together excitedly.

"The houses are filled with clothes suitable for spirits like us."

Lana’s eyes flickered with curiosity. She immediately asked the question that mattered most to her.

"Do any of those houses contain gold, silver, spirit stones, or valuable treasures?"

The little girl blinked innocently.

Myra tilted her head in confusion before curiously asking, "Can they be eaten?"

Lana was left speechless for a brief moment before she finally replied,

"Gold... it is a metal with a beautiful golden color. It is extremely hard and very heavy. Back in our world, it is considered incredibly valuable."

She paused for a few seconds, carefully recalling everything she knew before continuing,

"Yes, Master. If I am not mistaken, there really do seem to be items like that inside the jade bracelet."

The moment those words left her lips, Lana’s eyes lit up with excitement.

"Can you bring them out?" Lana eagerly asked.

If there was truly gold inside the jade bracelet, then she desperately wanted to confirm it with her own eyes.

Hearing her request, Myra obediently nodded before her tiny figure dissolved into countless shimmering particles of light and disappeared into the jade bracelet.

Meanwhile, Axel stared at Lana with a horrified yet astonished expression. "You actually found it..."

The moment Lana heard that, her face instantly bloomed into a proud smile.

"Yes, Uncle! What do you think? Aren’t I incredibly smart and intelligent?"

Axel could not help but chuckle as he watched her proudly puff out her chest. "Yes, yes. You are indeed very smart and intelligent."

Then he let out a long sigh of relief. "Thank goodness. Our objective has finally been achieved. We can now return home with complete peace of mind."

Lana happily nodded. "Exactly! Now we don’t have to keep worrying anymore."

Just as she finished speaking, ripples appeared above the jade bracelet.

The next moment, Myra flew out of it. Lana immediately looked toward her with eyes filled with expectation.

However, when she noticed that Myra’s hands were completely empty, her hopeful smile slowly disappeared.

"Where is the gold, Myra?"

Myra lowered her head in frustration. "Master... I can’t bring it out."

She looked at her own transparent hands before continuing with obvious disappointment.

"For some reason, the gold keeps passing straight through my body. No matter how many times I try to grab it, it simply slips through me."

Her tiny face was filled with helplessness. When Axel saw Lana’s disappointed expression, he could not stop himself from laughing softly.

Lana pouted as she muttered under her breath,

"So what’s the use of that gold then? Maybe it has been fake all along, which is why I can’t get my hands on it."

Axel immediately shook his head. "That gold isn’t fake. It is completely real."

Lana’s eyes widened. "Really?"

"Not only that," Axel continued, "I have a feeling there are many more treasures hidden inside that jade bracelet."

Hearing that, Lana’s heartbeat quickened.

’Many more treasures?’

She immediately asked, "Uncle... is there any way for me to enter the jade bracelet myself?"
