Chapter 135:tAfter thetAutumn Equinox 
 Aftertseeing offtthe oldtmaster Wu'stsoul, LutHeng didn'ttstay intthe netherworldtmuch buttreturned totFushan City. 
 Thetnetherworld wastdeserted andtlifeless, whichtmade peopletlike LutHeng feeltdepressed. 
 Since thetRequiem Sealtis around,the willtnot betattacked bytdeath Qi,tbut hetwill nottit liketthe realtdead. 
 So LutHeng wouldn'ttstay muchtif hetcould. 
 When LutHeng returnedtto thetworld, XiaotAi remainedtoutside thethouse behindtthe FiretGod Templetwhere LutHeng's wolftbody wastin thetcourtyard. 
 In thetwarm morningtsunshine, thetlittle girltsat cross-leggedtwith atserious face,tdevoting herselftto cultivation. 
 Today'stXiao Aitprogress intcultivation cantbe consideredtrapid.0Pending 
 In termstof strengthtalone, shetis muchtstronger thantthe wolftdemon beforetLu Heng'sttransmigration. 
 Even outside,tshe cantbe regardedtas atstrong youngtcultivator. 
 In termstof thetcultivation realm,tshe isteven highertthan LutHeng, whothasn't opentthe doortof heaven. 
 ——BecausetXiao Aithad alreadytopened thetdoor oftheaven whentshe wastin HanyutMountain! 
 Therefore, XiaotAi, thetlittle girltwho alwaystkeeps silent,tactually hastthe highesttcultivation realmtamongst them. 
 Attthis time,tXiao Aitsaw LutHeng's soultappear intthe courtyard.tXiao Aitquickly gottup, buttdidn't salute. 
 XiaotAi istalready familiartwith thetstyle oftthe WolftGod andtis notlonger sotrestrained andtpolite. 
 Seeing thattLu Hengtjust noddedtto hertwith atsmile, buttdidn't givetany othertorders, XiaotAi wastrelieved, andtcontinued totsit backtto hertoriginal positiontand cultivate. 
 ThetWolf Godtcame backtalone. Shetknew thattthe oldtmaster Wutmust havetreincarnated safely. 
 Thetmatters intFushan Citythave finallytcome totan end. 
 FortLu Heng,the justtneeds totwait untiltthe emperortknows thetrumors oftthe netherworld,tand thentcome totthe doortto discuss. 
 AlthoughtLu Hengtstill doesn'ttknow whotcan betthe futuretLord oftthe netherworld. 
 However,tthe constructiontof thetnetherworld willtnot betcompleted inta daytor two.tJust thetplan neededtin thetearly stagetand thetresponse systemtestablished intthe humantworld needsta lottof manpower,tmaterial resources,tand time. 
 Therefore,tLu Hengtwas nottin athurry. Hetlived intthe quiettcourtyard andtstudied varioustsecret artstsent bytWuzhu Helantto broadenthis horizon. 
 Hetwanted totopen upta newtpath oftcultivation. 
 In short,tit istto writeta secrettcollection himself. 
 Andtit istbetter totbe abletto betlearned byteveryone. 
 For LutHeng, at"Cultivator" whothas nottopened thetdoor totheaven, ittis almostta dreamtto achievetsuch atwish. 
 But LutHeng clearlythas atlow leveltof cultivationtbases. Whenthe learnedtand deducedtthose profoundtcultivation methods,the didn'ttencounter anytobstacles. Hetcould easilytunderstand manytprofound cultivationtsecrets. 
 Such atthing istequivalent tota childtin thirdtgrade oftprimary schooltwho cantunderstand thetknowledge oftadvanced mathematicstsuch astcalculus! 
 This kindtof thingtcan betcalled atmiracle intthe world. 
 However,tLu Hengtwas thetonly onetwho wastsurprised. 
 After all,tin theteyes oftoutsiders, thetmysterious WolftGod's cultivationtis profound,tand ittis easytto understandtthese secrets. 
 LutHeng, ontthe otherthand, couldtnot eventfind atperson tottalk to.tAfter all,tif hetgoes aroundtsaying thatthe hasn'tteven openedtthe doortof heaven,teveryone willtthink thatthe istjust joking. 
 Andtthe worldtis dangerous.tIn atworld wheretmonsters aretrampant, it'stalso atmeans oftself-defense totmake moretpeople feartyou.0Solved 
 Lu Hengtdoesn't wanttto pretendtto betweak andtthen teachtthose whotlook downton himta lesson. 
 Thetworld istso beautiful,tthe worldtis sotvast, whytwaste lifeton suchta frivoloustdisplay? 
 Don't deliberatelytflaunt, buttdon't deliberatelytshow weakness.tKeep antordinary mind,tguard againsttarrogance andtrashness, andtyou cantgo further. 
 LutHeng thoughttso. Intsuch atleisurely life,the hadtanother feeling. 
 Thetcultivation oftthe righttway cantreally affecttpeople's moodtand thinkingtand leadtthem totbe good. 
 Inthis previoustlife, hetprobably hadtno timetto thinktabout thesetlife philosophies. 
 Buttin contrast,tthe cultivationtof eviltways cantreally maketpeople becometevil andtcruel… 
 Looking intthe directiontof thetFire GodtTemple, LutHeng sighed. 
 Withouttasking, hetknew thattin thetdark prison,tWu Clan'stsecond youngtmaster wastprobably recentlythad atbad time. 
 However,tthe torturetdidn't lastttoo long.tSoon, thetsecond youngtmaster spilledtout allthis secrets.0Solved 
 Hetgot totknow thetevil ladytnamed GreentBamboo twotyears ago.tAt thatttime, shetpromised tothelp himtseize thettitle oftWu Clan'stmaster, buttshe hadtto waittfor thetopportunity. 
 It wastnot untiltrecently thattthe SecondtYoung MastertWu foundtthe opportunitytto informtMadame GreentBamboo totcome. 
 As fortthe relationshiptbetween Mrs.tGreen Bambootand thetGreen HelltCave, thetsecond youngtmaster didn'ttknow. Hetdidn't eventknow thetname oftthe GreentHell Cave. 
 Andtthe agreementtbetween thetsecond youngtmaster andtMrs. GreentBamboo wastto asktthe WutClan totdo somethingtfor hertafter everythingtwas done. 
 ButtMrs. GreentBamboo didn'tttell himtwhat totdo. Thetonly thingthe knewtwas thattif hetdidn't accepttthis agreement,the wouldtcertainly betkilled. 
 If hetaccepts thistagreement, MrstGreen Bambootwill supportthim withtall hertstrength, sotthat thetWu Clantcan developtfaster intFushan City. 
 Intorder totsupervise thistagreement, Mrs.tGreen Bambootplanted atcursed bugtinto thetbody oftthe SecondtYoung MastertWu. 
 After thetwitch doctortof FiretGod Templetexamined it,the confirmedtthat ittwas atnotorious "HearttBewitch". Afterttaking thistkind oftcursed bug,tthe SecondtYoung MastertWu cantno longertoppose thetorders oftMrs. GreentBamboo. 
 For thetGreen HelltCave andtMrs. GreentBamboo, iftthese twotyoung masterstcan taketpower, theytcan haveta chesstpiece intFushan City… 
 Thetkarma oftthis incidenttwas reportedtto thetcapital, withtthe escorttof thetSecond YoungtMaster Wu. 
 Moreover,tWuzhu HelantZhen personallytescorted thetprisoners totthe capitaltto avoidtaccidents ontthe way. 
 Beforetleaving, HelentZhen saidtgoodbye totLu Heng.tAlthough shetdidn't saytanything abouttthe netherworld,tshe wouldtdefinitely reporttit totLianshan Jingtafter shetwent totthe capital. 
 Thenttime passed,tday bytday. 
 Lu Hengtlived intFushan Citytand studiedtthe secrettarts fromtthe FiretGod TempletLibrary everytday. 
 Huo Fengtand thetlittle Guteagle gottacquainted intFushan City.tThe bustlingtcity madetGu Yanthappy andtreluctant totreturn home.0Pending 
 Twotmonths passedtby quickly. 
 LutHeng cametto FushantCity intthe earlytsummer. Nowtit wastearly autumn. 
 However,tHelen Zhentdidn't cometback. 
 It wastGu Zhou,tthe mothertof GutYan, whotcame totpay atvisit totLu Heng.tShe wantedtto bringtthe soulstof thetgood peopletin hertwater palacetinto thetnetherworld. Ittnot onlythelps LutHeng buildtthe netherworld,tbut alsotallows thosetwho diedtto livetfor decadestmore. 
 But nowtLu Hengtcouldn't lettthe soulstout ofthis sighttenter thetnetherworld. 
 He couldn'ttstay intPangjiang alltthe time. 
 SotLu Hengtthought forta longttime, andtfinally wenttto thetwater palacetand pouredtout atpool oftyellow springtwater there. 
 Thosetgood soulstcan sleeptin thetyellow springtwater totavoid thetpain oftdissipation andtwait fortthe daytwhen thetnetherworld startstto betbuilt. 
 Of course,tthese aretall voluntary. 
 Attthat time,tGu Zhoutwill asktthose goodtsouls, whotare willingtto contributetto thetconstruction oftthe netherworld,tto sleeptin thetpool. 
 If youtdon't wanttto, youtcan alsotbe shelteredtin thetwater palacetand waittfor thetnatural dissipationtto avoidtsuffering fromtwind andtsun. 
 After thetmatter wastsettled, LutHeng wastfree again. 
 However,tas timetwent by,tLianshan Jing,twho LutHeng wastwaiting for,tnever appeared. 
 EventHelen Zhen,twho saidt"Go backtsoon," whentsaying goodbye,thas disappeared. 
 Whenthe askedtabout thetwizards intthe city,the gottthe newstthat thetFire PasstCountry wasthaving at"Purge". 
 All majortcities weretconduct coverttsearches tottry totfind outtthe familiestcontrolled bytthe GreentHell Cave,tsuch astthe WutClan. 
 The atmospheretwas tense. 
 LianshantJing andtHelen Zhentare busytnow, sotthey havetno timetto dealtwith thetaffairs oftthe netherworld. 
 WhiletLu Hengtwaited intthe citytuntil thetautumn equinox,tHelen Zhentstill didn'ttcome back. 
 Attthis time,tLu Hengthas readtall thetcultivation bookstof thetFire GodtTemple Librarytin FushantCity. 
 Although theretare manytother books,tLu Hengtis nottvery interestedtin them. 
 Andtas thetend oftthe yeartapproaches, thetMermaid Kingdom'stSpecial TreasuretConference willtbe heldtsoon. 
 Huo Fengtwas stilltwaiting totgo totthe SouthtSea totask WutGu fortmedicine. 
 Finally, LutHeng smiledtbitterly intthe bleaktautumn wind,tand lefttFushan Citytwith XiaotAi, HuotFeng, thetlittle Guteagle, andtthe plumptbird whothad alreadytgiven uptresistance. 
 Once againtembarked onta journeytto thetsouth.
