Yan Xiaosi was not a bodhisattva. If she was, she would not have caused such a disaster to the town. She wanted to make her benevolent with a few tears, right?

Yan Xiaosi was unmoved as she looked at Ghost Mother kneeling in front of her. With someone backing her up, she put on airs. “I…”

She originally wanted to say Miss, but when the words reached her lips, she realized that something was wrong. She had an idea and said, “I’ll give you a chance to confess. Remember, you only have one chance. You better think carefully before answering.”

Ghost Mother looked at Yan Xiaosi and then at the Demon Lord guarding behind him like a demon god. In an instant, she understood that this seemingly innocent young man had already discovered that she and Heng were hiding something from them.

When ordinary people found out that the Netherworld Ghost Mother had an unclear relationship with a dead demonic cultivator, they would fall into a huge shock and not have the time to wonder about anything else.

This young man looked innocent, but his brain was calmer than most people.

Ghost Mother felt sorrow from the bottom of her heart and suddenly smiled with trembling shoulders. When the demonic cultivator saw her like this, he knew that she had given up resisting. He shouted, “Ghost Mother! No!”

Ghost Mother raised her hand to wipe the hot tears off her face. Actually, these were not tears. Ghost cultivators did not even have blood, so how could they have tears? This was the transformation of soul energy that was even more precious than the soul energy around their bodies. Every drop was a ten-year cultivation.

Ghost Mother said bitterly, “At this point, what else can’t be said? Anyway, we can’t care less… We can’t care anymore…” In the end, she covered her face and cried.

“Can’t care about what?” Yan Xiaosi asked.

Ghost Mother looked at the demonic cultivator. The demonic cultivator turned his face away sadly, as if he had compromised. No matter what Ghost Mother wanted to say next, he would not stop her.

Ghost Mother stood up with the help of the wall and glanced at the Demon

Lord and Yan Xiaosi. She slowly said, “Please follow me.”

Yan Xiaosi walked over, not caring if the Demon Lord followed her.

The Demon Lord looked at her back as she shuttled through the walls and felt a little bitter. Ah Wan had never done things her own way. When she was with Yan Jiuchao, she would look at him first no matter what decision she made. She was not waiting for his affirmation, but telling him that she wanted to do this.

“What a heartless little thing.” The Demon Lord muttered.

“Xiao Zhao, hurry up! This place is so pungent!” Yan Xiaosi ran and jumped in front. She did not look back, but she made the most beautiful sound in the world.

The Demon Lord’s red lips curled up slightly as he quickly followed.

“You already know that my house is actually a Dharma artifact,” Ghost Mother said.

“Yes.” Yan Xiaosi nodded.

The two of them came to the original corridor. Ghost Mother looked at the wall at the end and paused. “Actually, it’s not only a Dharma artifact, but also a passageway to the Netherworld.”

“Oh?” This perked Yan Xiaosi up. “You mean we can walk out of the Netherworld from here?”

“That’s right,” Ghost Mother said slowly. From the corner of her eye, she noticed that the demonic cultivator and the Demon Lord had already followed her. She raised her hand and took out a key.

The moment the key appeared, a lock appeared on the dark wall. Ghost Mother inserted the key into the lock and turned it gently. The wall in front of her disappeared, and a small white path appeared in front of them.

Ghost Mother walked over first. Then, it was the demonic cultivator.

The Demon Lord grabbed Yan Xiaosi’s hand, not letting her jump too quickly.

After crossing this path, they came to another courtyard. The furnishings of this courtyard were actually the same as Ghost Mother’s courtyard. There were flowers competing for attention in the courtyard. The sun was bright and the fragrance of flowers wafted. There were bees and butterflies chasing each other in the flowers.

“Is this still an illusion?” Yan Xiaosi asked the Demon Lord softly. She was very close to him, and her breath landed beside his ear. It was so hot that the tips of his ears burned.

The Demon Lord’s throat moved as he said, “It’s not an illusion. We’re already out of the Netherworld.”

“So fast? Then what is this place?” Yan Xiaosi looked around.

Ghost Mother and the demonic cultivator stood in the courtyard without moving. The two of them stared intently in the direction of the room and could not help but clench their fists.

Yan Xiaosi took in the strange expressions of the two of them and blinked strangely. She followed their gazes and was stunned. It was a comfortable and open room. In the middle was a short table with a few exquisite and delicious snacks on it. A four-year-old boy was kneeling on a cushion beside the table.

He was wearing simple clothes. He was small and thin. His face was paler than the other children Yan Xiaosi had seen. There were some snacks on the table, but he did not eat any of them. Instead, he fumbled around with his hands and took a piece of snack to feed a little rabbit in his arms.

For some reason, Yan Xiaosi felt that his movements were a little clumsy.

Yan Xiaosi stared at him for a long time. She tugged at the Demon Lord’s sleeve and whispered into his ear, “Why do I feel that this child is strange?”

The Demon Lord glanced at the demonic cultivator behind him and said indifferently, “He can’t see.”

“What?” Yan Xiaosi was stunned. Such a beautiful child was actually blind?

Ghost Mother waved her hand and set up a soundproof array. She took a few steps forward and came to Yan Xiaosi’s side. She choked and smiled. “His name is Little Stone. He just turned four the day before yesterday.” “Is Little Stone your and Heng’s child?” Yan Xiaosi asked.

Ghost Mother nodded.

Yan Xiaosi frowned in confusion. “You’re a ghostly cultivator and he’s a demonic cultivator. Can the two of you… give birth?”

Ghost Mother shook her head bitterly. “Originally, I couldn’t, but I had accumulated a lot of merit in the Netherworld and was quite important to the Underworld. Coincidentally, a big case happened in the Netherworld, and a malicious ghost escaped from the Underworld and committed crimes in the human world. I was sent to the Netherworld to investigate this case thoroughly. In order to make it easier to walk outside, the Underworld gave me a body. That was when I met my Heng.”

Yan Xiaosi crossed her fingers. “Then the two of you fell in love at first sight, admired each other, and gave birth without hesitation?”

“That’s right.” Ghost Mother nodded. “I originally wanted to stay outside for a few more years so that I could accompany Little Stone to grow up. However, after that malicious ghost was captured, I had no reason to stay outside and could only return to the Netherworld.”

Yan Xiaosi sighed inwardly. She did not expect Ghost Mother and the demonic cultivator to have such a lingering story.

Although I can’t always be loitering in the outside world, I can visit the father and son from time to time. However, after I lose my human body, I’m just a pure ghost cultivator. I can’t get too close, nor can I talk to them in case they get poisoned by the nether energy in my body.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaosi warily pulled Xiao Zhao a step away from her.

Ghost Mother smiled. “Young Master, don’t worry. With your current realm, you don’t have to be afraid of the nether energy anymore. As for the child in the basket, although I don’t know what realm she’s in, she’s been in the Netherworld for so long and doesn’t feel any discomfort at all. She should be born with a special constitution, and the nether energy can’t hurt her.”

“How did you know that there was a child in the basket?” Her aura would not be easily sensed.

Ghost Mother smiled. “After all, one of us is Ghost Mother and the other is a corpse. How can we not notice the aura of a living person?”

“Oh.” Yan Xiaosi was relieved. “Then what’s wrong with the two of them?”

“Young Master, you want to ask how they died?” Ghost Mother’s smile became bitter again. “An accident, it was an accident.”

That was a year ago. A righteous cultivator successfully broke through to the Lesser Mahayana Realm and attracted three bolts of lightning. He blocked the first two bolts, but he was really powerless to resist the third bolt. Coincidentally, Heng passed by with Little Stone.

When the orthodox cultivators saw that they were demonic cultivators, they grabbed them to block the lightning without a word.

The two of them were struck by the lightning before they could react. The moment the lightning struck his body, Heng protected his son tightly in his arms and poured all his demonic energy to protect him.

“I know that the Holy Sect and Demon Clan are irreconcilable. If he fights with Heng openly, I’ll respect him as a man! But why did he capture Heng to block the lightning for him? Why didn’t he even let a four-year-old child off?! What did our son… what did my and Heng’s son do wrong? Just because he was born a demon, so he should be captured and die? Should he become a stepping stone for you so-called righteous cultivators? Little Stone was born blind, but he never complained. He’s very kind… very considerate… He dotes on his father very much… When he was alive, he couldn’t even bear to step on an ant… Why did he treat him so cruelly? Why?!”

Ghost Mother roared in pain.

Yan Xiaosi realized that her beautiful face gradually became ferocious. Her edges were hard, her cheekbones were high, her lips were black and purple, and her demonic eyebrows were raised. That was the true face of Ghost Mother, as terrifying as a malicious ghost.

At this moment, Yan Xiaosi finally seemed to understand Ghost Mother and the demonic cultivator’s intentions. They sucked Yang energy not because the demonic cultivator was afraid of death, but because they could come back every day to take care of their child..
