âThe Soul Substitute Lotus Seed is a consumable item after all. It will be reduced per usage.
Fundamentally, itâs not a long-term solution.â
âCan it be replenished in the Pool of Afterlife of the Underworld?â
The Underworld had gone to the nether realm along with Revealer Leonardo and Ludwig was unsure if
his motherâs problem could be cured in the same way as Anna. Annaâs soul was broken, but its origins
were still there, whereas his motherâs soul had permanently disappeared.

Among the many patients, Mystic Maidenâs condition was the most challenging. The body of the Mystic
Maiden of the Nine Heavens was a little broken.
Ludwig hugged her and touched the cracks on her body that looked like dried tree bark with his fingers.
âHow did this happen? Your body was constructed of Chaos Beads, but you shattered so easily. Arenât
you too fragile?â
Ludwig
Alex
The Mystic Maiden lifted her hand and smacked him. âShattered, my *ss! Iâm still alive!â
She then continued, âI forcefully used the forbidden spell. This isnât my body, after all⦠Forget it. I have
to return to your body. Moreover, I can no longer casually condense my physical body again this time,
so Iâll have to find it no matter what!â
Ludwig nodded. âI will dig out your coffin when I explore the Undead Territory again.â
Ludwig
Alex
Mystic Maiden replied, âBut, you have to work your growth really hard. Otherwise, you wonât be able to
hold my physical body. â
âWhat? Is your physical body⦠Very heavy?â
âYou will know when the time comes.â
The cracks on the Mystic Maiden kept increasing. Ludwig hadnât noticed that the Mystic Maiden had
been struggling to hold on. However, she felt that there was no longer a need because enduring
seemed futile. âBe careful with the people from Rakshasa Temple. They possess supreme demonic
weapons. I was injured by one, lest I wouldnât have been broken like this. Alright. Iâm leaving.â
Ludwig
Alex
The physical body she had worked hard for so long was ruined in the end. Her soul returned to
Ludwigâs mind palace.

Meanwhile, those eight Chaos Beads were hung on the Chaos Tree again.
âRakshasa Temple!â
Ludwigâs eyes turned and emanated murderous intent. Compared to the Returning Sword Sect,
Rakshasa Temple was the first force he wanted to destroy.

âLudwig!â

At that moment, Jade came over and pulled him away.
âThe people from the Returning Sword Sect are here.â
âThey have come to Mount Dragon-Tiger?â
âNo. They went to your house. Let me show you the live footage.â
Many modern technology products had been placed at Mount Dragon-Tiger, which meant this place
had become the base camp of the Flying Eagles. So, something like a surveillance system was
indispensable. On the screen, Ludwig saw a ship flying in the sky.
Ludwig
Alex
More than a hundred densely packed experts from the Returning Sword Sect were on the ship.
âSo few of them have come?â Ludwig asked.
Ludwig
Alex
Jadeâs eyes widened. âThere are more than a hundred people, and all are beyond Human Immortal, yet
you still think there are too few?â
Ludwig sneered, âWhatâs so great about a hundred Human Immortals? What I want is every member
who is above Elder level in the Returning Sword Sect⦠Even if these people were to kneel at the
entrance of Thousand Miles Conglomerate, their sins would never be erased.â
Ludwig
Alex
Jade was startled a for a while before she came to her senses and said tenderly, âRockefeller brat, are
you nuts? Have you done so many bad things until youâve messed your head up? Do you think these
people are here to kneel and repent? They are here to break your formation!â
Ludwig snorted. âWishful thinking.â
Ludwig
Alex
âHuh..?â
âDo you not believe me? Fine. Letâs go and have a look.â
Presently, more than a hundred Sword Immortals with overwhelming aura were on a large ancient
airship in the sky above Rockefeller Manor.
The people in a large area below ran out like a tidal wave, fearing that they would be implicated in
trouble.
Who had ever seen such a line-up?
Depression, dreariness, and the prelude to a storm had evidently left the entire world in destitute.
Just then, a man and woman came out of a certain alley in front of Rockefeller Manor. The man was tall
and handsome, while the woman, beautiful and elegant. They stood on the lawn in front of the entrance
like a match made in heaven.
They were Ludwig and Jade.
Ludwig
Alex
Looking up at the Returning Sword Sectâs airship, Ludwig said directly, âDid you guys come to the
wrong place? Thousand Miles Conglomerate is in the West. Go kneel before the entrance over there.
Are you coming here to court death?â
Ludwig
