Who Made You Cultivate Seriously?

Qin Luo traveled to a world of cultivation where demons ran rampant. To protect himself, he came to the Dragon and Tiger Monastery to learn from a master, only to find out that his master was a swi...

Chapter 232 Nine Nether Soul Lotus

The Inn of the Underworld.

Only Yuanyuan and Xiaogui were in the inn.

Yuanyuan was petite. She sat at the table, staring intently at the outside of the inn, and murmured softly, "Since Big Brother left, no ghosts have passed by recently."

The little devil grinned and said, "Yuanyuan, we usually don't have time to rest, isn't this a good thing?"

"I used to be very busy, but I felt happy helping those spirits in need. Now I'm a bit bored." Yuanyuan looked listless.

The kid raised an eyebrow, "Then I'll take you out to play."

Yuanyuan shook her head firmly, "No, I'm not going anywhere until my big brother comes back."

Outside the Yellow Springs Inn.

A tiger demon blocked the road leading to the Yellow Springs Inn. The tiger demon had a ferocious face and exuded a fierce aura, forcing the wandering souls who originally intended to go to the Yellow Springs Inn to leave.

A beautiful figure appeared nearby.

The tiger demon suddenly opened its eyes and saw a hazy purple mist, within which a beautiful figure was faintly visible.

Hua Ying stared at the tiger demon.

The tiger demon felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave, its whole body stiffened, and even its voice trembled. "Great Immortal, spare my life! My master is the owner of the Yellow Springs Inn. Please show mercy."

Hua Ying narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, "Your master is Qin Luo?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

The tiger demon nodded repeatedly.

Hua Ying's expression was indifferent. "Why are you blocking the way here, preventing the wandering souls from reaching the Yellow Springs Inn?"

After arriving in the underworld, Huaying inquired about the Yellow Springs Inn and learned that it was a place where spirits could send messages in dreams.

"The little devil said that Yuanyuan works very hard helping the spirits send messages in dreams, so he asked me to come here and guard them," the tiger demon said respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Hua Ying did not make things difficult for the tiger demon. She moved lightly and arrived at the Yellow Springs Inn in the blink of an eye.

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing floral shadow, Yuanyuan beamed and said enthusiastically, "Sister, would you like to visit my dream?"

Hua Ying smiled gently, "I want to appear in Qin Luo's dream, can you help me?"

Yuanyuan and Xiaogui both widened their eyes at the same time.

"Are you the older brother's friend?"

"I guess so."

Yuanyuan said warmly, "Sister, please sit down for a while, I'll make you some tea."

The little ghost could sense that Hua Ying possessed immense power, far surpassing any of the strong individuals he had encountered before. "Fairy sister, my elder brother is still outside and hasn't returned. Is there something you need from me?"

After Hua Ying sat down, she said softly, "I want to know about Qin Luo's experiences in the underworld."

The little imp raised an eyebrow and grinned, "Fairy sister, you've come to the right person. My brother and I fought side by side in the underworld. Together, we wiped out the demons in the forbidden land of the Yellow Springs, rebuilt the cycle of reincarnation, repaired the divine tree, recreated the underworld, and finally lived in seclusion at the Yellow Springs Inn, helping the passing souls."

"You look a lot like the girl I know."

"Do I have a younger sister?"

Hua Ying chuckled lightly, "I'm talking about personality."

Yuanyuan brought Huaying a cup of hot tea. "Sister, this is a heart-nourishing tea. Please enjoy it."

Hua Ying nodded with a smile. She picked up her teacup, took a small sip, and felt a refreshing sensation. "Good tea. I've heard that the most famous thing at Huangquan Inn is Forget-Me-Not Wine. I wonder if I could try it?"

"no problem."

The kid readily agreed.

Yuanyuan brought Huaying a bottle of forget-me-not wine.

Hua Ying tasted the Forget-Me-Not Wine, her brows furrowed slightly, and she tasted a bitter flavor in her mouth.

Yuanyuan could sense a faint sadness. She blinked and said softly, "Sister, are you troubled by something? You can tell us, and maybe we can help you."

Hua Ying smiled gently and said, "Could you tell me how you and Qin Luo met?"

Yuanyuan pursed her lips and nodded. "Many years ago, on a snowy night, my mother and I encountered bandits. She told me to hide in the mountain god temple. I was cold and hungry in the temple. Just as I was about to fall asleep, I saw my older brother. He reached out to me, wanting to take me away, but I couldn't grab him. The wind and snow blurred my vision."

This experience was somewhat painful for Yuanyuan. The little devil frowned and angrily shouted, "Damn bandits!"

Yuanyuan smiled and said, "After I became a ghost, I hid in a dilapidated temple. One day, a tall monk came to the temple. He had his eyes covered with cloth, but he could still see me. He kept chanting sutras in the temple, which gave me a headache. Not long after, a scholar came to the temple. The scholar looked refined and gentle, but he told me ghost stories. I was terrified by them. When I was most scared, my older brother appeared again. Actually, the monk and the scholar were both very kind. They even helped me find my mother and sent us to the underworld."

Hua Ying's eyes were filled with a smile. This was the Qin Luo she knew, who, even in death, was still benefiting the Three Realms.

Yuanyuan continued, "After my mother and I arrived in the underworld, we encountered more trouble. Fortunately, my older brother reappeared. I owe him a lot of kindness, which I can only repay in the next life."

"As expected of my elder brother."

The little devil's eyes were filled with admiration.

Yuanyuan looked at Huaying and asked curiously, "Sister, what's your relationship with big brother?"

Hua Ying thought for a moment, then laughed and joked, "I am his defeated opponent."

Yuanyuan and Xiaogui looked at each other in bewilderment.

The little devil became nervous. "Fairy sister, one should take responsibility for one's own actions. We are innocent."

Hua Ying smiled slightly, "Don't misunderstand, I have no grudge against him, I just happened to be passing by."

The little devil breathed a sigh of relief. "Fairy sister, are you going to the cycle of reincarnation? I can take you there."

Hua Ying shook her head and said softly, "I'm going to the Land of Extreme Yin to find the Soul Lotus."

“I know this place well.” The little devil grinned and said, “Fairy sister, I’ll take you there.”
