“No!”

Hu Min stood still and hesitated for a while. Finally, she sighed and carried Yun Qin on her back.

“Min Min, why are you trying to save her? It’s not like…”

Zhuang Sen’s expression was awkward. Due to what happened previously, he was still a little uncomfortable.

“If you don’t want to save her, I will, okay?” Hu Min replied petulantly and struggled forward with Yun Qin on her back.

“Chill, bro. Master Yun is quite powerful. Let’s bring her along. What if we still need her later? Hu Min, the three of us will take turns carrying her.”

Fatty came out in time to smooth things over.

Thus, the three of them carried two large bags and an unconscious Yun Qin on their backs and set off.

The mountain path was bumpy, and the morning fog was thick, so the three of them had to walk carefully. They were afraid that if they slipped, they would roll down the mountain.

Yun Qin was jolted awake. When she saw that the three of them were walking back to the mine, she said in a hoarse voice, “Hu Min, go find that tree spirit.”

Hu Min heard Yun Qin speak but only vaguely made out the word “Tree spirit.” She asked confusingly, “What did you say? Are you okay?”

However, when she put Yun Qin down, she found that Yun Qin fainted again.

“Damn.” Hu Min couldn’t help but curse.

After Yun Qin regained her consciousness, she saw that she was in Hades’ palace.

She touched the bone-chilling floor in a daze, still somewhat unable to come back to her senses.

This time, she fainted because of the Soul Bead. She didn’t expect Hades to summon her.

However, fortunately, she had some questions to ask Hades.

After waiting for a long time, she still did not hear any movement. Yun Qin deliberated and asked carefully, “Lord Hades, I want to ask, how many people like me are there in the world?”

Then, she heard an answer that was expected but hard to accept.

“Countless, I can’t remember.”

Yun Qin thought of this question while she was catching ghosts and absorbing evil energy from the world.

The world was vast. So, how could she absorb all the evil energy in the world by herself?

Later on, the person in the stone coffin, the Soul Bead, and the Qin family all confirmed her suspicion.

She was not the only one that Hades sent to the human world. She was just a “special existence” between the human world and the underworld.

Then, was the purpose of her existence just to absorb evil energy in the human world?

Unexpectedly, Yun Qin subconsciously said aloud what she was thinking.

Then, she heard a light cough from the hall. In an instant, a wave of pressure enveloped her, shaking Yun Qin to the ground.

At that moment, she suddenly understood. No matter what kind of ability she had, when facing the divine axiom that determined life and death, she was just a tiny ant.

Her whole body relaxed and an extremely thick book suddenly appeared in front of her. The edges of the book were badly worn, someone obviously flipped through it many times.

Yun Qin pursed her lips and stretched out her hand to touch the book’s ancient pages.

If Hades was in charge of death and reincarnation, then another entity must be in charge of life and govern all living things in the world.

Under normal circumstances, the two entities did not interfere with each other and kept each other in check.

However, there were always beings in the world who resisted the divine axiom due to their obsession or volition. If they placed pressure on these creatures, then they might harm other innocent creatures.

Therefore, these creatures mingled on the boundary between the world and the underworld, and no one could control them.

These special creatures were ghosts and spirit monsters. After a long period, they would either naturally disappear or find a relatively isolated place that did not interfere with the natural reincarnation cycle.

However, there was another type, those who took other creatures’ karma to escape control under the divine axiom.

For example, evil ghosts that killed many lives had a stronger will to resist the divine axiom. In the end, they would become so strong that they could use their strength to counteract the laws of the divine axiom..
