Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1880: Chapter 1880: Journey to the Yin Realm

Zhu Huai’en and his apprentice were quite fortunate. During their half-month stay in the capital, they gathered fifty children with Spirit Roots, which was undoubtedly a big harvest.

Qi Hao suggested sending them back, saying that someone else could handle that task.

Among the fifty children, ten were girls, and their Spirit Roots were also decent.

Yu Huping looked at the new disciples below, feeling exceptionally excited; they were the hope of the Xuantian Sect.

Qi Wen was really bored. ”Mom, I’m going to the underworld to visit Meng Po. I’ll also check out the Starry Realm.”

”King Yan certainly wouldn’t want to see you.”

Qi Wen chuckled. ”Even if he doesn’t want to, I’m still going.”

The children knew that Aunt was going to the underworld, which they naturally longed for. In the end, they decided to take the kids along for a look.

Qi Wen also wanted to take the children to see the Starry Realm.

With two Immortal Emperors escorting them there, and since it’s the Starry Realm, there’s no danger.

The kids were excited, and so was Qi Wen; she didn’t want to stay in one place for too long.

Once, Meng Po told her that if she wanted to go to the underworld, she should wait at the City God Temple.

It meant not to break in forcefully, to avoid trouble when the time came. This was far more convenient than going to the Ascension Channel.

Other Immortals certainly couldn’t. But the Tan Family and Ghost Messengers count as acquaintances. This wasn’t her first time going to the underworld with the Ghost Messengers.

The children were excited, the underworld indeed! They had only seen introductions before; this time, they could really take a look.

”Mom, if we go to the underworld from here, will others follow?”

”What do you think Ghost Messengers do?”

”Mom, did you fight with a Ghost Messenger before? Otherwise, why would they let you go?”

”Haha, Ghost Messengers aren’t scary. The main concern is entering the underworld and King Yan; you may get in but might not get out. Everyone wants to live their days well, so who would take such a risk?”

”Mom, how did you get on good terms with Meng Po?”

Qi Wen really didn’t want to tell her sons that after listening to Meng Po, she lived as a man for many years.

Gu Ersheng laughed quietly to himself; that was indeed Qi Wen’s dark past.

”You’ll find out in the future; I definitely won’t tell you now.”

Upon arrival at the City God Temple, Qi Wen initially intended to light the incense Meng Po gave her but decided against it to avoid causing trouble for Meng Po.

”Auntie, is Meng Po really old and ugly?”

”Don’t say that. She’s been upset for a long time over that portrait; she’s a great beauty.”

”Really? I thought she looked like the portrait.”

”Those were painted by the Judges, and now they’re practically enemies.”

We could only wait here patiently.

Outside, no Immortal knew what these two were here for.

No one dared to approach, so they just waited outside.

”Auntie, is the Starry Realm nice?”

”You might not be able to adapt. There’s no Immortal Qi, only Spiritual Energy. I went down to transmit news to the Xuantian Sect. That way, I feel I’ve returned the favor of the Starry Realm.”

Gu Ersheng thought his wife’s thinking was too simplistic. How could things be that easy? After all, they ascended from the Starry Realm.

They waited for three days before seeing the Ghost Messengers arrive.

The two jumped slightly upon seeing Qi Wen. ”Madam.”

”Long time no see, you two. King Yan keeps exploiting you, assigning you all the work! That’s just too unfair.”

The two knew of her, so they said nothing.

”Do you need my help?”

”Madam, we’re collecting souls.” Today’s heart palpitations were quite prophetic; it turned out to be because of her being here.

The two felt a headache even just remembering. While not knowing what a headache actually feels like, it must be pretty helpless.

”If you don’t need my help, go about your business.”

The two Ghost Messengers saluted and left.

After leaving, the two Ghost Messengers communicated, ”It’s not that simple; trying to go to the underworld again? Spare us!”

”If they want to go, we have no choice. Just wait; King Yan turns a blind eye to these situations, what can we do?”

”You’re right. We’d better hurry and collect souls. I really don’t want to come to the Immortal World.”

A few kids started discussing the Ghost Messengers after they left, concluding that they were extremely ugly, hugely ugly.

”Mom, they called you madam?”

”Well, I did work in the underworld for a while.”

”Mom, you still managed to work in the underworld?”

”Your dad and your uncle also worked there.”

”Do they pay you?”

”No, of course, there’s no pay.”

The speed of the Ghost Messengers was quite fast; they brought back two souls.

”Madam.”

”Two of us are here to see friends as a group; please make it easy.”

The two Ghost Messengers thought to themselves indeed that she is already at the top level of cultivation in the Immortal World and can’t stay put, and wants to ruin the underworld again; the Judge really doesn’t want to see them, but Meng Po does.

The two Ghost Messengers didn’t respond. The Token came out, the door to the underworld opened, and Qi Wen’s face was full of smiles as her family followed the Ghost Messengers into the underworld.

The children were somewhat disappointed; how did they get in so easily?

Qi Wen didn’t want to provoke the two Ghost Messengers further. She’d say more when they got to the underworld.

But she took out many nice things for Meng Po, and of course also gave gifts to King Yan and the Judge, and the two Ghost Messengers. As for the other Kings, she didn’t know them. If she were given benefits, she could exchange them too.

The children felt very uncomfortable after getting here; they didn’t have Demon Stones, especially Yongfu and Yongkang. They had the purest Spirit Roots, and coming here made them feel a bit clumsy.

Qi Wen noticed the difference in her nephews, thought to take them into space, but was refused.

She transmitted to them, if they couldn’t hold on, they should come inside.

The two Ghost Messengers led the ghosts to the main hall where the Judge would judge them, as that was how it was with souls from the Immortal World; after all, the Immortal World was different and had this privilege. Even ten lifetimes of good deeds in the next life didn’t guarantee reincarnation in the Immortal World.

Qi Wen knew their protocols, so her family just followed along. That arrogance was truly annoying.

The Judge saw Qi Wen but acted as if he hadn’t.

Listening to the Judge recounting the life stories of the two ghosts, it seemed that these two were talents.

Their final outcome was to be sent to the Beast Path.

The two Ghost Messengers locked the ghosts and left. Now the main hall had no outsiders; Qi Wen looked at the tender, handsome guy.

”How could you be so cold when an old friend comes to visit?”

”Why aren’t you cultivating in the Immortal World; what are you doing here?”

”Isn’t it because I missed you? You’re just so heartless. We’re old acquaintances, how could you act like this?”

The Judge wanted to leave; this woman dared to say such ambiguous words, while the man beside her kept glaring at him, feeling so innocent.

”Don’t leave; I came to bring gifts. Are you saying no to that?”
