Start from scratch

uld he possibly not know that a Luotou family member was wandering around in the middle of the night!Could it be... that Grandpa allowed this The thought struck me like a thunderbolt, making my whole...The little boy said that I was devoted to demons, but I don't think that's quite right.

After all, I've never dabbled in any unorthodox methods, nor have I ever considered taking shortcuts. I've also never had faith in demon gods.

If I had to say...

“You have many entanglements, internal and external trials are increasing. This year is a great test for the world, you have quite a few ties. Are you an ordinary cultivator” The little boy shook his head while holding his arms across his chest and lectured me: “You are the little empress of the underworld. No matter how careful and cautious you are, there will always be times when you need to make a choice.”

He paused, then grinned: "Of course, you don't need to be too lost. The Emperor has always been subtly guiding your thoughts in the right direction, hasn't he This time might seem a bit rough, but it's just like pulling someone back from the brink."

"...I don't understand. Could it be that even love for one's dearest kin has become demonic" I frowned.

The little boy nodded in agreement: “Love and infatuation, the entanglements of children, are the hardest things for people to overcome in this world.”

"Should I just abandon my family in their time of need Is that what transcendence means" I don't know why, but I feel so stifled inside.

Jiang Qiyun didn't save my brother, Damao, Huqing, and Xiaog Tou along with me. He only pulled me out, and now he hasn't said anything. He just left me here—probably to let me cool off.

"Not not," the little boy shook his head and said, "Being heartless and unrighteous is never part of my Xuanmen cultivation. But if we become too entangled with the mundane world, it will hinder our progress...Little Madam, don't you feel like you are increasingly entangled in affairs and responsibilities"

I nodded silently.

Since the agent Shen Jia became a special advisor, he initially did so to maintain the Shen family's status, help Lin Yanhuan, and also to hone himself.

To this day, everyone in the Shen family, as well as the special advisor's work and those around me, have become accustomed to it. I have also gradually become busier.

The cultivation of the Taishang Xuanguimen emphasizes tranquility of body and mind, while I am becoming increasingly entangled in worldly affairs.

Jiang Qiyun must have seen it, but he didn't point it out.

When I was lost in thought, a young boy picked up a small twig from the ground and happily poked a butterfly that was perched on a flower.

A butterfly fluttered its wings and did not leave, but instead danced playfully around the little boy's small twig.

Mist wafted through the mountains, with holy light piercing the fog from above the trees. Standing in this blessed paradise, one instantly feels a sense of cleansing and tranquility.

What is my goal

Is it for raising children, for helping family, or…

To grasp that flowing sleeve, the cloud-like expanse of his garment, which vanished in an instant with a single turn.

"...What are you doing here, staring blankly" Jiang Qiyun's voice suddenly rang out.

I was startled. The sound wasn't loud, but it reverberated through my mind, leaving me frozen in place.

Jiang Qiyun was back again, he had only been gone for a short while. He held a small package in his hand and looked at me with a slight frown.

Seeing that I wasn't speaking, he glanced at the young boy.

The little boy waved his hands hurriedly and said, "I didn't talk nonsense. I just chatted with the little princess for a few words. The little princess was preoccupied with worries, so I comforted her."

Lost in thought, indeed....

In this world's demon trial, my brother and Huaiqing (Little Bald Head) are trapped in another world, several children are still at the Shen family, and Mu Wanchen and Xiao Yinluo don't know what happened to them...

Jiang Qiyun raised his hand and pressed it on top of my head, applying a slight amount of pressure, causing me to look up at him.

"Cultivation is not something that happens overnight. If one has not gone through the trials of demons, it is difficult to truly understand the preciousness of purity. These experiences are a good thing, so why force yourself to let go of everything" His eyes were as usual, calm and collected, with no hint of blame in them.

"...Am I... possessed now"

I didn't dare to ask.

Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile playing on his lips: "Look at your little lotus flower."

What are you still looking at The little boy just spoke clearly enough. He said that I am devoted to demons, which is actually a stubborn and indifferent mentality.

The cultivation within the small lotus flower must be gone.

I spread out my palms, muttering the incantation, and a small, delicate lotus flower appeared in my hand.

Now the lotus flower has reverted to its ordinary form, losing its hazy white glow. It looks just like an ordinary mystical artifact.

As expected, nothing at all.

Jiang Qiyun raised his hand and grasped mine, enveloping my palm and holding the small lotus flower. He raised an eyebrow and said, "This artifact is to allow you to see your accumulated merit and cultivation. It can protect you in dangerous moments. Since it's now depleted, we can only start over."

"Oh..." I felt a bit disappointed. This little lotus flower looked small, but it was hard to collect. It's impossible for there to be some great opportunity or fortune every day in this world that would let me encounter it.

“This is the path to the underworld from all worlds, and with the help of Shen Tu Yu Lei, the two ghost emperors, you were directly reversed from the demon world and sent here. It’s just right for you to rest here.” Jiang Qiyun handed me the small package.

The small package was very light, soft inside, with some simple clothes and hairpins.

A little boy peeked over and asked, "Great Emperor, are you going to fetch new clothes from the divine beings"

"Is it necessary Just get a few sets from the Scattered Immortals over at Zizhu Forest." Jiang Qiyun motioned for me to tidy myself up.

Indeed, I'm rather disheveled now. The mountain wind whips through my hair, leaving it half-wet and half-dry. I sought shelter behind a large tree and changed into a more suitable outfit. I then used a hairpin to style my hair neatly.

The little boy nodded and said, "This looks a bit like a cultivator's appearance. Let's go, Miss. I'll take you to the Purple Bamboo Forest."

Jiang Qiyun can soar through the clouds and ride the wind, I don't believe it. I still have to close my eyes and sit in a little boy's gourd.

Even so, the little child still found it quite difficult to carry.

"Oh my, mortals are such a mess of impurities, so heavy."

The Ten Directions World is the blessed land of the cave heaven created by Emperor Qinghua, Taiyi Zun Shen. What I have seen is only a glimpse, just the tip of the iceberg.

Here, boundless and infinite, who knows how many exotic flowers and grasses, or spiritual beasts and wandering cultivators exist. Those beings able to reach this place must possess extraordinary talents and great opportunities.

“The outskirts of the Purple Bamboo Forest are where newly-arrived, independent cultivators practice. You can rest here for a bit, it's just that in the mortal realm, there's currently a demonic tribulation happening. With your indecisive nature, the more things you get involved with, the more trouble you’ll have.” Jiang Qiyun reminded me.

"Huh You want me to stay here by myself" I was a bit surprised.

Jiang Qiyun glanced at me: "I'm here too, but I can't stay long. After all, this is a place of cultivation..."

What does it mean

Jiang Qiyun leaned closer to me, lowering his voice and saying, "Do you still want to practice cultivation as a married couple"

Oh... that's what I meant!

You're not even being discreet, with a child right here!

The little boy covered his mouth and giggled. Seeing my embarrassment, he coughed twice and said: "Little Lady, you have great fortune to be here. But the Emperor's status is different, the Underworld Gods naturally can't linger outside this Bamboo Forest. You must go to Qibao Fangqian Forest to sit down with the God and have a chat, right Besides, the Underworld is now busy with affairs and has to travel between two places..."

He turned to Jiang Qiyun and said, "Rest assured, I will take care of the young mistress."

Jiang Qiyun nodded slightly, leaning in close to my ear and saying, "Stay here at ease, so I can rest assured handling matters both in the underworld and the human world... Rest assured, I'll be back tonight. We'll have time to talk then."

Someone will be coming in the evening...

My ears felt a little hot, so I quickly collected myself and nodded curtly. in my room.I really wanted to casually chat with him, but the atmosphere between us was heavier than a tomb. It took immense courage to speak up, but once I did, we found ourselves with nothing to s...
