Xu Xiangyang wanted to deny it immediately.
About Lin Xingjie's superpower, about Zhu Qingyue's superpower, they had no plans to reveal it yet.
And in fact, he couldn't control evil spirits.
But Xu Xiangyang suddenly thought of a problem:
What if the other party could sense traces of other evil spirits causing trouble on this empty lot? Perhaps they had already found some clues at the scene?
Should he mention the attack by the Ghost House Elder? If he admitted it, how would he explain the fact that he had escaped from the Ghost House Elder if Xiangyang claimed he had no power to control other evil spirits? But even if he chose to hide it, wouldn't the other party notice?
If his words were inconsistent, it would be tantamount to exposing his own lies, obviously more disadvantageous.
So he immediately changed his statement, scratching the back of his head while asking with an embarrassed look,
"Um... Uncle Meng, do I have to answer this?"
