Volume 8 - Chapter 14
Bai Qiuran watched the Soul Taker disappear and then sighed quietly.
“Lan.”
He looked at Jiang Lan and said:
“You have more fame than mine.”
Jiang Lan smiled softly and replied softly:
“No matter how big it is, it’s you who gave it to me.”
“Ahem.”
Wise Immortal flew up from Bai Qiuran’s belt and muttered:
“It feels dead.”
Bai Qiuran watched it fly to the table and then asked:
“Speaking of which, what’s going on with the [Asura Path] that the Soul Taker just mentioned?”
“It’s one of the six paths of reincarnation.”
Jiang Lan blinked.
“Didn’t you create them?”
“That’s different.”
Bai Qiuran explained:
“I also heard Xue Ling talk about it. When I created the Underworld, I left six pits in there. I don’t know what future generations filled in for me.”
“Then let me tell you what I know.”
Jiang Lan said:
“The six paths of reincarnation are divided into two kinds of good paths and evil paths. The Ashura way is one of the good paths, but it is the one closest to the evil path. It connects to the Ashura realm. People who have no serious mistakes but have a contemptuous heart will be reincarnated as Ashura. It is a world full of conquests and battles. Asuras have the power and blessings of the Devas, but they lack the virtues of the Devas. Therefore, after the death of war, most of them will fall into evil paths because of their sins.”
“What is Deva? What is Ashura?”
Bai Qiuran asked:
“How come there are so many strange varieties in the Underworld I created?”
“Both of these are races born in the small worlds derived after the creation of the Underworld, and are included in one of the six paths of reincarnation.”
Jiang Lan explained:
“Deva is a race that lives longer than mortals, is stronger, and has a more enjoyable life. Asuras are similar to the gods in other respects, but they are more warlike in character. These two races are the rewards of heaven to the human race. Along with the path of hungry ghosts and the path of hell, these four paths are connected to the Underworld and are integrated with the Underworld. They are regarded as subsidiary worlds used by the Underworld to perform reincarnation rewards and punishments.”
“How strong are these guys?”
Bai Qiuran asked again.
“There are strong ones and weak ones. The strong ones are about the same as ordinary immortals. Some of the asura kings and ghost kings can even reach the Thick Earth stage, and then be promoted to the Immortal Realm.”
Jiang Lan explained:
“But in general, there is not much difference in strength from the mortal world cultivators.”
“understood.”
Bai Qiuran nodded.
“Then do you know what’s going on with this Asura Path?”
“It should be a rebellion. Asuras attacked the Underworld are very common.”
Jiang Lan pressed her lips and replied:
“In my impression, it is like this anyway. After all, it is a race living in a world of endless wars.”
“Nothing will go wrong, right?”
Bai Qiuran asked.
“Probably not. The Soul Takers are all immortals. It is very simple to suppress the Asura’s rebellion. What’s more, there are several Immortal Venerables stationed in the Underworld guarding them.”
Immortal Venerables were cultivators who has reached the Samsara stage created by Bai Qiuran. Even in the Immortal Realm, an Immortal Venerable was a superpower.
Thinking of the stage, Bai Qiuran felt something wrong. He created these stages at the beginning, but now other people have climbed far above his head according to his cultivation method.
“Damn, the predecessors planted trees and the descendants took advantage of the shade.”
He complained in a low voice.
Jiang Lan knew what he was complaining about, smiled, and tugged at his cheek.
“Since the Underworld can handle it by itself, let’s do it for the time being. If we encounter a ghost, we can deal with it.”
After thinking for a while, Bai Qiuran looked down at Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan’s smile froze, and then said solemnly:
""
“From now on, you will be responsible for dealing with ghosts, and I will help you guard the door outside.”
“Okay.”
Bai Qiuran couldn’t help but laughed. After smiling, he asked again:
“In the past few days, we have been around Fusang. Do you want to go back to the Nine Provinces and Ten Lands and have a look at my sect?”
Jiang Lan’s eyes lit up when she heard the words, and then there was a hint of blush on her face.
Bai Qiuran told her that he was an orphan who grew up in the sect, so Qingming Sword Sect is equivalent to his home, and this trip can be regarded as the first time he took Jiang Lan back after the two got married.
“Although it is more than 300,000 years late, I still have to ask.”
Bai Qiuran took Jiang Lan’s hands and asked:
“Do you want to go back home with me?”
Jiang Lan tilted his head slightly and looked at him, then smiled.
“Of course.”
She stretched out her hands and hugged Bai Qiuran.

——————-
After leaving Kyoto, they wandered around Fusang and cleared up several ghost incidents. After the ghosts did not appear in Fusang for a period of time, the two returned to Fusang Immortal Palace again.
Su Xiangxue and the three girls have really started to practice in the Fusang Immortal Palace. Among them, Su Xiangxue and Li Jinyao were stimulated by Jiang Lan’s cultivation, while for Tang Ruowei, Bai Qiuran estimated that it was Creator’s Body-Forging Technique that inspired her to struggle.
Looking at this momentum, Su Xiangxue probably intended to directly breakthrough to become an immortal, Li Jinyao intended to practice till the Heavenly Tribulating stage. For Tang Ruowei, Bai Qiuran estimated that she was going to put all her mind to break through the 45th layer of the Creator’s Body-Forging Technique before she was willing to go out.
Looking at it this way, it would take at least a few decades, may even a hundred or two, before three girls ended their closed-door cultivation.
Since this was the case, Bai Qiuran couldn’t call them back together. Tang Ruowei and Li Jinyao were both disciples, so they didn’t need to worry about the affairs of the sect. Bai Qiuran just needed to go to the Heavenly Demon Sect to tell them Li Jinyao was safe.
Su Xiangxue once asked Bai Qiuran to help her look after a group of female disciples. This was also not a problem: Even if Su Xiangxue was not there, the Kamasutra Sect was still a major sect of the Evil Alliance, and small sects definitely did not dare to do anything with it.
As for other major sects, as long as Bai Qiuran was still there, no one would dare to provoke him.
Qingming Sword Patriarch spent more than two thousand years in the cultivation world to win the reputation, even if Bai Qiuran told them that he was traveling in Fusang, they would not dare to take advantage of it.
So after instructing Lin Rui to take care of the Fusang Immortal Palace, Bai Qiuran and Jiang Lan returned to the Nine Provinces and Ten Lands.
Passing through the gate of Qingming Mountain, Bai Qiuran did not notify the head and the elders but directly took Jiang Lan back to his residence.
Jiang Lan was very interested in the hilltop and small courtyard where he lived. Bai Qiuran took her around the small courtyard for a while. After a while, Zhu Feng, the Supreme Elder, who was notified by his disciple, came to Qixing Peak.
He knocked on the courtyard door, and then greeted Bai Qiuran who came to open the door:
“Uncle Ancestor, you are back...Huh?”
Zhu Feng rubbed his eyes, looked at the beautiful 13- or 14-year-old girl standing behind Bai Qiuran, and asked:
“Uncle Ancestor, who is this?”
