<div> Although Xie Qing was prepared for the pain, he did not expect the process to be so excruciating! "It feels like... like you're being burned alive and your skin is being peeled off," he thought, gritting his teeth. His face looked tense, and large drops of cold sweat dripped from his forehead. Nevertheless, he restrained himself, and not a single whimper escaped his lips.
 "Hm..."
 Liu Yan, who was helping him expel the Negative Karma from his body, was pleased with Xie Qing's behavior.
 Lu Yin and Li Yuilan stopped meditating when they heard Liu Yan's hum. They could see Xie Qing's tense expression.
 "This... is horrible..." Lu Yin lowered her head. She couldn't even imagine how painful it was.
 "I..."
 Li Yuilan felt the worst, as it was because of her that Xie Qing was in this condition. Seeing her friend's state, Lu Yin simply pinched her cheek.
 "Ow..."
 "Don't think about it, okay?" Lu Yin whispered, afraid to distract the Master: "He will definitely scold you if you show him such a face."
 "I-I understand... let go of my cheek..."
 Li Yuilan twisted her mouth and looked at Xie Qing's back with the corner of her eye. She sighed in relief when she saw that he was not looking in their direction.
 Well, the young man had much more important matters to attend to, so he did not notice what was happening around him.
 After all, he was facing a powerful mental demon for the first time!

 "Wake up!"
 A loud voice brought Xie Qing to his senses. He stood up and looked around.
 "Where is this?" his puzzled... childish voice rang out: "Eh... why do I have such a squeaky voice, as if I've been hit in the balls?"
 Don't pay attention to his stupid comparison. However, childish was not only his voice, but his entire body! Xie Qing had returned to his youth!
 "And where am I? I was just undergoing treatment a second ago..." Xie Qing thought in confusion and looked around.
 It took him a moment to remember this place. It was his room!
 "I've returned to the past? How is this possible?" he wondered angrily.
 This option was immediately dismissed. He didn't remember entering a police box... wait, this wasn't that universe.
 Crash!
 Xie Qing frowned. The door to his room had been roughly opened, and a teenager around fifteen years old entered, with a smirk on his face and a bat in his hands. He had black hair and gray eyes.
 "Xie Qing! Bastard, get up, I've come to punish you! How dare you get close to my Han Yue?!"
 "Pfft... Han Yue?"
 Xie Qing raised an eyebrow. He was able to remember who she was. The maid who worked at the Xie estate was often the target of bullying, so Xie Qing took her in.
 "If this is a reproduction of the past, then..."
 "Ha! Are you silent, you son of a bitch?!"
 The teenager swung the bat. He was fast... this was the strength of a cultivator!
 However, Xie Qing was not worried. Before the bat could touch his head, he easily caught it.
 "Wh-what..." the teenager was shocked: "How?! You... bastard, did you become a cultivator?"
 There was fear in his voice. Xie Qing did not answer the question and only clenched the bat in his hands.
 Crackle...
 "Hm?"
 The teenager heard a strange sound and suddenly felt that the bat in his hand... had become lighter?
 And when he turned his gaze to Xie Qing, he was shocked! His hand easily squeezed the end of the bat and turned it into splinters.
 "Aaaa!"
 The teenager fell on his butt in shock and began to crawl backward. His face was filled with shock and amazement.
 "Interesting," Xie Qing muttered and cracked his neck: "So these are mental demons, huh... interesting. They're too weak and can't limit my cultivation level."
 He shook his head. Although he was initially panicked, in the end, this turned out to be an ordinary illusion. Over the past month, he had already been in several illusions, so he had gotten used to it...
 "Hm? What do you mean I was in an illusion?" Xie Qing thought in confusion, and then shrugged: "Either way, I need to find this mental demon and kill it to get out of here."
 The teenager wanted to say something, but Xie Qing simply stepped on his face and, twisting his boot, left the room.
 "Uuuuh..."
 ***
 "Curious. Everything here is so realistic. If I were a weak-willed person, I would have been drawn in and never escaped," Xie Qing thought, looking around.
 Everything reminded him of the past. A past where he had no talents and, apart from his appearance, had nothing else.
 Pathetic, uninteresting times. The young man partly hated this time, but also missed it.
 Many familiar faces were no longer around. Over time, many of them had left their jobs, and some had died because they were involved in the attempt on Xie Meiling's life.
 "Interesting place..." Xie Qing said to himself and looked around. His eyes narrowed, and his mouth stretched into a devilish grin: "But you're trying to hide from me... I'll tell you now, it's useless."
 The young man's eyes flashed with amber light. Somewhere in the distance, there was a loud scream.
 "I hate it! I hate it!" the mental demon shouted.
 Xie Qing was surprised. This voice... it was the King of Hunting! So he was trying to take over his body? Realizing this fact, Xie Qing's eyes filled with cruelty.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> Kill!
 "AAAAAAA!"
 Summoning the Golden Flame, Xie Qing clapped his hands together.
 BOOM!
 This single clap made the surrounding space crack. He smiled and then swung his hand. The Golden Flame began to consume everything in its path.
 "Aaaa!"
 "Save me..."
 Of course, the people in the illusions screamed, but Xie Qing did not even flinch. This was just an illusion, so he did not need to worry about their safety.
 Soon, only darkness remained of this space. Xie Qing looked indifferently at the small black sphere in his hand.
 "If your physical body were alive, I wouldn't have been able to stand up to you. But despite being an ancient cultivator, your Qi was too poor, and your techniques were even worse. You are inferior to me!" Xie Qing shouted arrogantly. The space shook with new force from his voice.
 "I hate you! Geniuses like you should die! I curse..."
 "Shut up."
 Xie Qing snorted and clenched his fist, instantly destroying the remaining fragment of the King of Hunting's soul. He was not merciful to his enemies!
 After the King of Hunting's death, the Negative Karma dissipated and could no longer sustain the illusion.
 Xie Qing blinked, and everything around him exploded!
 ***
 "Hm..."
 Xie Qing opened his eyes. Liu Yan was still sitting in front of him, and he was in her chambers with two other women. Everything was back to normal.
 "Were you visited by mental demons?" Liu Yan asked, having finished treating Xie Qing.
 "Yes. It was a fragment of the King of Hunting's soul," Xie Qing replied calmly.
 "The King... of Hunting?" Liu Yan raised an eyebrow in surprise and then marveled: "He's an ancient cultivator... who would have thought he was alive."
 "Well, his condition is not what one would call 'alive.' It's worse than death," Xie Qing answered and twisted his mouth: "He lost his main advantage – physical strength. That's why he became another step on my path to Immortality."
 "My, my..."
 Liu Yan suddenly fell silent and shook her head.
 "You really are like your Master..."
 "Am I?"
 "Like two peas in a pod."
 "Thank you for the compliment."
 "And just as shameless."
 "Hehe..."
 Lu Yin and Li Yuilan exchanged glances. Why were these two acting as if they were close?

 After so long, Xie Qing finally put on his new white hanfu. The old one had been destroyed during the battle with the King of Hunting. This hanfu was a gift.
 "Are you sure? It looks very expensive," Xie Qing said in surprise.
 "It's fine. You've helped me a lot. I even think it's too cheap a gift..." Li Yuilan replied in a calm voice.
 "Well, if you say so..."
 Xie Qing smiled. He really liked this hanfu. It was also related to its attributes.
 [Garment of the Six Immortals] | [Rank: Semi-Legendary] | [Description: A hanfu made from high-quality materials. It has protective formations on the inside and outside that can block a single attack from a Soul Nascent cultivator. Created by Li Yuilan with the help of Zhang Mei. Contains a secret random teleportation formation.]
 "Semi-Legendary... Heavens... its protective functions are simply excellent!" Xie Qing thought admiringly.
 If he sold it on the market, he could get a fortune for it. However, the young man would not treat Li Yuilan's gift, which she had put her soul into, so crudely.
 Li Yuilan smiled slightly when she saw that Xie Qing did not insist. She looked him over and blushed faintly.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> "He's so handsome..."
 Although she regretted not being able to see his torso, this clothing complemented him very well! With a satisfied hum, she smiled.
 "I brought you tea."
 At that moment, the door to the room opened, and Lu Yin entered with a tray. Her face looked a little strange when she looked at Xie Qing, but the girl soon came to her senses.
 "Thank you," Xie Qing nodded and took the tea.
 Although he did not like tea... could he really refuse a treat? He didn't want Lu Yin's efforts to go to waste.
 "Thank you... did you bring Zhima Qiu?"
 "No, I'm sorry... I can ask the cooks to make it. Do you want it?"
 "Yes, please!" Li Yuilan answered with sparkling eyes.
 They sat down and began to drink tea. At one point, Lu Yin asked a question.
 "By the way, did you know that Lady Xu Mei is coming here?"
 "Pffffff!"</div>
