Liu Mengli calmly gathered her loose hair. With that one simple action, all the patrons in the restaurant turned to look at her.

"What you're saying, sister, makes no sense." Liu Mengli's tone was neither high nor low, like a feather tickling someone's ear. "I wanted to go to the tavern for a drink to warm my soul, but your young lady insisted on dragging me in. How does that make me a troublemaker?"

Shen Yifei glanced at the old ghost beside him, whose eyes were fixed on Liu Mengli, and whose mouth was drooling.

This little vixen is so alluring, most men simply can't resist her charm.

In other words, he had developed immunity from spending so much time with her. Even so, it was still easy for Liu Mengli to ignite his passion.

Shen Yifei nudged Lao Gui's arm, jolting Lao Gui awake. He wiped his mouth and coughed, "Cough...cough, this little chick is fucking hot!"

"Hey bro, who's that woman in red?"

"Oh, her... Su Huan, the owner of the Ecstasy Pavilion!"

Su Huan circled around Liu Mengli. "A homeless girl, dressed in men's clothing and coming to my building, you wouldn't happen to be trying to sleep with my women, would you?"

"I'm looking for my husband." Liu Mengli gestured towards the corner, "He's sitting right there."

At this moment, Shen Yifei had returned to the corner and was pouring wine into his glass.

He couldn't get a word in edgewise about the two women's fight.

He also wanted to see what kind of skills Su Huan, the owner of the Ecstasy Pavilion, had. Since Liu Mengli had said she wanted to find out more about her, he decided to let her have her say.

Su Huan followed her gaze and saw Shen Yifei sitting in the corner, holding a wine glass in his hand, also looking in this direction.

Su Huan looked Liu Mengli up and down for a few moments, then turned to her and said, "Little sister, you have such a heart-fluttering appearance, and you're going to be his wife? What do you see in him?"

Liu Mengli wasn't annoyed: "He's a good person in every way."

"Where is it good?"

"If you're curious, why don't you serve him for a night and see for yourself what's so good about him?"

Su Huan pressed on relentlessly, while Liu Mengli countered sharply, and fire gradually ignited in the eyes of the two women.

Su Huan chuckled. In all these years, no one had ever dared to speak to her like that.

Without further ado, she flicked the bell on her ankle, making a series of crisp jingling sounds.

All the male patrons in the building, whether new or old, shuddered. Several of them even dropped their wine glasses with a clatter, their eyes fixed on Su Huan.

Shen Yifei's mind went blank, and he almost stood up. He just managed to calm himself down, and the small vortex in his dantian spun around once, finally suppressing the tingling sensation.

However, Liu Mengli, standing right in front of Su Huan, didn't let her smile fade in the slightest.

Su Huan's ringtone had no effect on her.

Su Huan's expression changed.

She took another step forward, and Lingyin became even more anxious, carrying a peculiar scent.

The smell was indescribable, a mixture of fragrance and putridity. As the eerie wind swept through, the ghostly guests in the lobby on the first floor were all driven mad with desire.

Some people hugged the table leg and called her "wife," while others embraced their ghost companions and began to grope them.

The female ghosts in the Ecstasy Tower also suffered, their legs going weak as mud, some sitting and some lying down, their moaning sounds making it even harder for men to suppress their lust.

Shen Yifei huddled in a corner, the small vortex in his dantian spinning rapidly, the power of the five elements forming a barrier around his soul.

Even so, the intense heat still stirred up some inappropriate thoughts in him.

Su Huan's bell suddenly emitted a sharp cry, and the old ghost shuddered, collapsing to the ground with his eyes rolled back, half of his soul gone.

After the ringing stopped, Liu Mengli leaned close to Su Huan's ear and said, "Sister, your seductive arts are indeed very powerful. But I've been through so many reincarnations, I'm already tired of all this love and desire."

After listening, Su Huan stared into Liu Mengli's eyes.

Deep within Liu Mengli's peach blossom eyes, a faint ring of extremely fine golden light was swirling.

The golden light belonged neither to life nor death, but stretched across the space between life and death, circling endlessly.

As Su Huan watched, she unconsciously began to spin along with it. It wasn't her body that was moving, but her soul.

She felt time was turning back, and she saw all her past lives...

Suddenly, Liu Mengli blinked, and the golden wheel vanished.

Su Huan jolted awake.

"Who are you?" There was a hint of fear in Su Huan's voice.

"Who I am doesn't matter." Liu Mengli smiled and took two steps back, gesturing with her chin towards Shen Yifei. "Seeing the facade of your Enchanting Pavilion, we just wanted to inquire about something."

Su Huan stared at her for a long while, then suddenly smiled. Her smile caused the allure of the entire building to recede like a receding tide.

Those ghostly guests who were clinging to the table legs and calling for their wives snapped out of their daze, looking around blankly. Some even licked their lips, as if they were still not satisfied.

"Fine, I concede." Su Huan crossed her arms. "I've never seen anyone else with your skills. Since it's a misunderstanding, I'll buy you a drink as an apology."

She called out upstairs, "Two jugs of osmanthus wine, bring them to my room."

Upon hearing that they were going upstairs for drinks, Shen Yifei thought to himself, "This is exactly like a brothel. Should I arrange for two girls to play the zither next?"

He put down his wine glass, stood up, and walked towards Liu Mengli. Liu Mengli took his arm, and their intimacy made Su Huan roll her eyes several times.

The three of them went upstairs together. Downstairs, a customer shouted, "Boss Su, your bell is really cool! Let us hear it again..."

Upon entering a room on the second floor, Su Huan saw the two take their seats. Somewhat embarrassed, she said, "Many of these guests come to hear my enchanting bell sounds, but I have never seen anyone as composed and undisturbed as you two."

Shen Yifei and Liu Mengli exchanged a smile. It seemed that their dual cultivation of spiritual consciousness before entering the Underworld had not been in vain, as the effect was quite obvious.

Osmanthus wine was served, one cup for each person.

Su Huan took a small sip and said without beating around the bush, "Speak, what do you two want to know?"

Shen Yifei didn't stand on ceremony, picked up the osmanthus wine and took a sip, "Good wine, the wine from the underworld really does taste different from that of the living world."

Then he put down his wine glass and looked at Su Huan: "Boss Su, let's get straight to the point. We're new to your esteemed land and would like to obtain a Reincarnation Token."

Su Huan's expression changed slightly when she heard the words "Reincarnation Order," but she quickly returned to normal.

"What do you two want the Reincarnation Order for?"

"Go to the Terrace of Longing for Home and retrieve my mother's soul!"

Su Huan toyed with the wine cup in her hand, remaining silent for a long time, seemingly weighing something in her mind. Finally, she put down the cup and sighed softly.

"The Reincarnation Token—something so many people dream of. It allows you to enter and exit the Viewing Platform. For so many years, I've wanted one too."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yifei felt a chill in his heart. It seemed that Su Huan also didn't know how to obtain the Reincarnation Token.

Just as they were about to say "Excuse me," Su Huan smiled at them, "I know where to find the Reincarnation Decree!"

Shen Yifei had given up hope, but upon hearing that Su Huan knew the whereabouts of the Reincarnation Token, his spirits immediately lifted, and he grabbed Su Huan's hands with both of them.

"Where can I find the Reincarnation Decree?"
