The Inn of the Underworld.

The inn was bustling with activity. An elderly man in white robes and with red hair was chatting, while another elderly man with a flushed face was drinking. Yan Nian and Zhong Xiao were engrossed in playing chess. They seemed very busy, but in reality, everyone's attention was focused on Qin Luo.

Li Hongshang, dressed in red, was as radiant as the morning sun. Beside her, Qin Luo felt a long-lost warmth. She possessed a fiery soul, unlike the other spirits in the underworld.

Qin Luo extended his hand, a smile on his face, and said softly, "Fairy Li, may I sit down and have a chat for a moment?"

"A fairy?"

Li Hongshang covered her mouth and chuckled. Her slender hand landed on the little boy's shoulder, and his pupils contracted sharply. He said with a tense expression, "Sister, I didn't provoke you, did I?!"

Whoosh!

"I will be back!"

The little boy was thrown out of the window by Li Hongshang.

Li Hongshang sat opposite Qin Luo and smiled charmingly, "Master Qin, I love listening to you speak. How about this, you ask me a question, and I'll ask you a question."

"OK."

Qin Luo watched the little boy disappear into the distance. "I want to know something about that child."

Li Hongshang was somewhat surprised. "That guy is an orphan who came with the red spider lily. Everyone calls him Little Devil. He likes to steal things and brag, and he often gets into trouble."

"What a brat." Qin Luo shook his head and chuckled. He knew that surviving in the Forbidden Land of the Underworld would not be easy.

Li Hongshang's eyes blazed with fury. "Master Qin, why are you in the underworld?"

Qin Luo said calmly, "After I died, I didn't want to wander the world, so I came to the underworld."

Li Hongshang's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. She could sense the power of Qin Luo's soul; he must have been extraordinary in life.

Qin Luo continued, "Fairy Li, may I ask what upheaval caused the Underworld to become what it is today?"

Li Hongshang sighed softly, "Many years ago, the Underworld was very stable with the Four Ghost Emperors in charge. Later, the Dao Ancestor fell, and the Four Ghost Emperors fought each other, which eventually led to the fall of three Ghost Emperors. The only Ghost Emperor left was barely surviving. So, during the war between the gods, the Underworld chose to watch from the sidelines."

"After the great battle of the gods, a large number of spirits poured into the underworld. Some of these spirits were extremely powerful and did not obey the constraints of the underworld, causing new turmoil. The underworld's management system completely collapsed. Fortunately, the Human Emperor arrived and ended the chaos in the underworld, but the underworld was severely weakened."

Qin Luo sighed softly.

Li Hongshang asked with a smile, "Master Qin, do you want to be reincarnated, or do you plan to stay in the underworld?"

"I want to live."

Qin Luo's eyes held a longing for life.

Li Hongshang nodded and smiled lightly, "No one wants to die. If you really wanted to live, why would you come to the underworld? If you left the underworld sooner, you might still have a chance to be resurrected."

"Thank you for reminding me."

Qin Luo asked with a smile, "Fairy Li, may I ask why the cycle of reincarnation was broken?"

Li Hongshang's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. "The last Ghost Emperor originally planned to reap the benefits after the war between the gods and immortals ended, but he was met by the founder of the Dragon Tiger Temple. They fought deep in the cycle of reincarnation, and the cycle of reincarnation was destroyed by them."

Why are they fighting?

"I don't know."

Li Hongshang shook her head slightly, then winked charmingly, "Master Qin, if you don't want to be reincarnated, why don't you stay at the Yellow Springs Inn? Food and lodging are provided."

Qin Luo smiled and shook his head, his eyes firm, "Thank you for your kindness, Fairy Li, but I have no intention of stopping yet. I plan to go to the Cycle of Reincarnation first."

"The Yellow Springs Inn welcomes you anytime."

Li Hongshang smiled sweetly.

Qin Luo recalled the story Lu Chenghuang had told him about how Yama had helped the supreme god reincarnate, which had caused him great trouble. He wondered, "Are there other paths to reincarnation in the underworld?"

Li Hongshang replied with a smile, "There is only one true cycle of reincarnation. There is another cycle of reincarnation in the underworld that has not yet been completed. The Human Emperor uses that cycle of reincarnation to create a false cycle of reincarnation, turning the souls of the dead into spirits, thus maintaining the stability of the underworld."

Are there any other ways to reincarnate?

"The Wheel King controls the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and He can use the Six Paths of Reincarnation to help souls reincarnate."

Qin Luo thought of something; perhaps the Yama King Lu Xian mentioned was the Wheel King. "How is the Wheel King?"

Li Hongshang covered her mouth and chuckled, "He's quite fast. King Yama possesses a supreme treasure and has been constantly hunted down by various forces. He controls the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which is equivalent to controlling reincarnation."

“Zhong Xiao is a former subordinate of King Zhuanlun. If you want to find King Zhuanlun, you can ask him.” Li Hongshang looked at the middle-aged man in black playing chess with Yan Nian.

Zhong Xiao gave an awkward smile and bowed, saying, "This humble god has been staying at the Yellow Springs Inn for many years and is unaware of the news about King Yama."

Qin Luo looked at Zhong Xiao and said solemnly, "Brother Zhong, if you encounter the Wheel King, tell him that he no longer needs to hide. Qin Luo of the Dragon Tiger Temple can protect him."

The inn fell silent once more.

King Yama is the King of Hell. After the fall of the Four Ghost Emperors, King Yama is one of the few strong beings in the Underworld. Qin Luo claims he can protect him. Just how strong is he?

Zhong Xiao was taken aback. Remembering that Qin Luo came from Longhu Temple, he quickly stood up, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, and said excitedly, "Thank you, Daoist Qin. If I ever meet King Zhuanlun, I will definitely tell Him this good news."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Qin Luo smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

He needs Yama to rebuild the order of the underworld, and he also wants to know who the reincarnated supreme god is.

Jasmine emerged from the depths of the inn carrying a pot of wine. She placed the pot in front of Qin Luo and said respectfully, "This is the Forget-Me-Not Wine from the Yellow Springs Inn. Please enjoy."

Li Hongshang picked up the wine pot and poured a cup of wine. The pale red wine swirled in the cup. "Master Qin, please."

Qin Luo picked up his wine glass and asked with a smile, "After drinking the Forget-Worry Wine, can I forget my worries?"
