The Demon King is back, leading adorable kids on an adventure around the world!

The three women split into three groups and went their separate ways.

Ye Qianxue is stationed in the Northwest, fighting against the Western Vatican and the vampires.

Li Mengmeng is stationed in the southwest, fighting against the Dark Council and werewolves.

Xiao Nian Nian is stationed in the East China Sea to confront the Sakura Kingdom and its maritime forces.

……

After seeing Xiao Niannian and the others off at Yuncheng Villa, Luo Tian stood alone in the courtyard.

A small gold plate rests on his shoulder:

"Master, is it really alright for our young master to go to the East Sea alone?"

"With my primordial spirit sealed, the protective jade talisman, the Qilin, and you by my side, there shouldn't be any major problems!"

Luo Tian gazed in the direction Xiao Niannian had left, showing neither sorrow nor joy.

Little Gold circled above his head, then transformed into a golden ray of light and chased after the East China Sea.

It was worried about Nian Nian and asked to come along.

Luo Tian didn't stop her, though he was a little worried, since Nian Nian was too young.

The courtyard fell silent after everyone left.

Luo Tian slowly turned around and looked westward.

That is the place where her parents and Luo Yao rest in peace.

"Now that I have reached the Nascent Soul stage, there are some things that should be put on the agenda!"

Luo Tian muttered to himself, his body slowly disappearing from the spot like ripples on water.

……

Dalingshan Cemetery.

Luo Tian stood alone in front of the three tombstones.

Flowers and offerings were placed at the graves of his parents and Luo Yao, which he had bought when he came.

The tombstone was renovated in a very grand manner; it was done by people sent by Li Zhendong.

"Dad, Mom, Luo Yao."

Luo Tian spoke softly.

"I have come to see you, but I wonder where your reincarnated forms are now?"

He sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

Three drops of blood essence flew from the fingertips, hovering in the air, crimson like blood, emitting a faint glow.

"Bloodline Tracing Technique—Activate!"

Three drops of essence blood transformed into three red lines and disappeared into the void.

The red line stretches forward, through mountains, through rivers, through clouds, all the way to the horizon.

But the further you go, the fainter the red line becomes, until finally it disappears completely.

Luo Tian opened his eyes, his face grim.

The Bloodline Search Technique can find any relative as long as their presence is still on Earth.

But the red line disappeared, which means they are not on Earth, or perhaps...

He dared not think further ahead, afraid that he wouldn't be able to accept it.

"Is it completely gone?... "

Luo Tian muttered to himself, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.

He did not give up.

He sat cross-legged, and a golden light shot out from between his eyebrows, passing through the earth, through the netherworld, and into the underworld.

A chilling wind blew, accompanied by the wailing of ghosts and wolves.

On the road to the underworld, countless wandering souls lined up and moved slowly forward.

At the Bridge of Helplessness, Meng Po served bowls of soup one by one.

On the Terrace of Longing for Home, a soul looks back at the human world for the last time.

Luo Tian's divine soul transformed into the form of an Immortal Emperor, enveloped in golden light, causing the ghost messengers to scatter.

Deep within the underworld, a magnificent palace stands.

The plaque above the palace bears three large characters: "Fengdu City".

Luo Tian landed in front of the main hall.

The palace doors opened automatically, and a figure dressed in a black imperial robe and wearing a flat-topped crown walked out of the palace.

His face was dignified, his aura was as imposing as a mountain, and his body was shrouded in an aura of the underworld.

Fengdu Emperor – Lord of the Underworld.

His gaze fell on Luo Tian, ​​and his pupils contracted slightly.

"An Immortal Emperor?"

The Emperor of Fengdu's voice was low and deep, tinged with surprise, but he quickly regained his composure.

He clasped his hands in a respectful gesture.

"The Celestial Emperor has graced the Underworld with his presence; I have failed to greet him properly."

"Your Majesty, there's no need for such formalities."

Luo Tian got straight to the point.

"I have come here to search for my relatives."

Have the souls of my parents and wife ever visited the underworld?

"Immortal Emperor, please enter the hall for further discussion."

Emperor Fengdu turned around and walked into the hall, with Luo Tian following behind.

Inside the main hall, a huge book floated in the air, gleaming with golden light.

It is truly a treasure of the underworld—the Book of Life and Death.

The book turned pages automatically, making a rustling sound.

Beside it, a wheel slowly rotates, evolving into the Six Realms:

The Heavenly Path, the Human Path, the Asura Path, the Animal Path, the Hungry Ghost Path, and the Hell Path.

The cycle of reincarnation continues endlessly.

The Emperor of Fengdu raised his hand, and the Book of Life and Death stopped on a certain page.

"The Immortal Emperor's parents and wife were from Yuncheng, Hunan Province. Their names are listed here."

Luo Tian looked up and saw his parents' names and Luo Yao's name listed there.

But the annotation at the end reads: The soul has not yet reached the underworld, and its whereabouts are unknown.

There is no record of the six realms of reincarnation.

The Emperor of Fengdu examined the Wheel of Reincarnation and shook his head.

"Their souls have never been to the underworld."

"I have ruled the underworld for ten thousand years, and I have never seen anything like this."

Luo Tian fell silent, feeling extremely depressed.

"Has the Celestial Emperor ever considered that their souls might have been taken elsewhere?"

The Emperor of Fengdu probed.

"Guidance?"

Luo Tian frowned.

"After some cultivators perish, if someone uses a secret method to guide their soul, they can directly bypass the underworld and go to a designated place."

The Emperor of Fengdu said.

"However, this secret method is extremely rare, and requires the practitioner to have a blood relationship or karmic connection with the deceased."

Luo Tian's heart stirred.

Is it related by blood or cause and effect?

The parents and Luo Yao are ordinary people; it's impossible for anyone to use secret methods to guide them.

unless……
