Chapter 221: Yellow Springs Road, Meng Po!

The Underworld leads to the Netherworld; the essential path goes through the Yellow Springs Road!

And on the Yellow Springs Road, there is a place called Meng Po's Manor.

Here, a wandering soul only needs to drink a bowl of Meng Po's Soup to forget past and present lives and re-enter the cycle of rebirth!

Today, Meng Po's Soup has two special guests.

That terrifying aura, as soon as it approached, frightened the surrounding souls so they dared not come near.

There's no way; this person is a great god who controls the Six Paths of Reincarnation, one of the supreme deities of the Underworld—ordinary souls could have their spirits shattered just by glancing at them, so who would dare approach?

"Tap tap tap..."

A flurry of hurried little steps sounded; Meng Po, applying lipstick before the bronze mirror, frowned impatiently and said, "San Qi, why aren't you properly boiling the soup, running up here for what?"

"Mother, guests have arrived!"

A somewhat ugly and clumsy little maid, looking at the peerlessly beautiful Meng Po, said.

"If there are guests, just give them a sip of soup; why do you summon me?"

Lightly drawing her eyebrows, admiring her absolute beauty in the bronze mirror, Meng Po's eyes flashed with a hint of sorrow.

No matter how beautiful she is, blooming on this Yellow Springs Road, she is ultimately just a flower slowly wilting.

"Mother, but..."

The little girl San Qi was about to explain when suddenly a voice came——

"Meng Po, come out to see this seat!"

Hearing this voice, Meng Po's face changed.

"How did she come?"

This time, Meng Po had no choice but to go downstairs, after all, the one who came is someone even she cannot afford to offend.

"What wind blew our Hou Tu Niangniang to this godforsaken place of mine?"

Before the person arrived, the fragrant wind already filled the entire Meng Po's Manor.

"Meng Po, I've come to see you again!"

A Cha looked at Meng Po and said with a smile.

"A Cha?"

Hearing that, Meng Po turned her head to look at A Cha, but in the next instant she widened her eyes.

"A Cha, what's wrong with your swelling?"

This isn't some regional dialect; Meng Po is merely stating a fact.

That is, how did A Cha's belly become swollen?

Faced with Meng Po's astonished gaze, A Cha paid no mind, simply wearing a happy expression as she rubbed her belly and said, "As you can see, I have a little baby!"

"Who did this?"

Meng Po unconsciously swallowed, then turned her head to look at Hou Tu Niangniang beside A Cha.

As a deity of the Underworld's Yin and Nether, she also counts as a high-ranking official of the Underworld.

So Meng Po clearly understands how special A Cha's identity is.

All along, the Underworld has confined A Cha to the Netherworld at the end of the Yellow Springs Road, making contact with outsiders utterly impossible.

Thus, how could A Cha possibly become pregnant with someone else's child?

Unless……

Thinking this, Meng Po narrowed her eyes and looked at Hou Tu Niangniang.

"Unless it's this person beside A Cha doing it on purpose—but what is her motive, and do those Underworld deities know?"

Seeming to see through Meng Po's thoughts, Hou Tu Niangniang spoke bluntly: "They don't know about this; I'm doing it merely to complete the Way of the Six Paths of Reincarnation."

"Completing the Way of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, could it be……"

Seeming to have thought of something, Meng Po looked at Hou Tu Niangniang with an expression of utter disbelief.

"Could it be that you've already found the method to take the final step? Has the Great Emperor agreed to this?"

Meng Po said in a somewhat hurried tone.

"This doesn't require their consent!"

Hou Tu Niangniang said with a cold expression: "Besides, I came today to discuss something more important with you."

"There's something important to discuss with me?"

Meng Po looked bewildered; she couldn't understand what important matter an ancient deity like Hou Tu Niangniang would need to discuss with someone like her, who merely boils soup.

After sizing up Meng Po from head to toe, Hou Tu Niangniang nodded thoughtfully.

Meanwhile, facing Hou Tu Niangniang's gaze, Meng Po only felt uneasy.

"Meng Po!"

Finally, just as Meng Po could not help but want to ask, she heard Hou Tu Niangniang continue: "I remember you've always wanted to leave the Yellow Springs Road to seek revenge on the person who once harmed you, right?"

"Huh?"

Frowning slightly, Meng Po said coldly: "How? Are you preparing to let me leave this thousand-mile Yellow Springs Road?"

Meng Po clearly understands that this so-called Yellow Springs Road is her imprisonment.

Back then, she had already tried, but alas, her strength was insufficient and she had no support, so she could only feel despondent, bringing her child to linger in this lifeless place, barely surviving.

Nevertheless, Meng Po has never forgotten that faithless person from back then.

She lives merely to wait for a chance to personally tear out that faithless person's heart and see what color his heart truly is.

"Meng Po, I can promise you: if you help me with one thing, I can let you go to do whatever you wish!"

Hou Tu Niangniang said.

"Really?"

Meng Po suddenly stood up, staring at Hou Tu Niangniang in disbelief.

At that moment, she was so excited her delicate frame trembled slightly, unable to hold back her emotions.

She lifted her right hand and dug her nails hard into her left arm, as if only pain could calm her.

"Mother, you're bleeding!"

Xiao San Qi, beside her, looked anxious, quickly tore a strip from her skirt and carefully bandaged her mother's wound.

However, Meng Po didn't care at all, merely took a deep breath, looked at Hou Tu Niangniang and said, "Lady, I don't know what you need me to do."

Seeing Meng Po's reaction, Hou Tu Niangniang nodded in satisfaction.

"Actually, the matter is quite simple; for you it should also be easy, after all, you have experience."

Hou Tu Niangniang glanced at Xiao San Qi, who was bandaging Meng Po, and said, "Meng Po, I need you to help me nurture a life."

"What?"

Upon hearing those words, Meng Po was dumbfounded.

Xiao San Qi, who was bandaging Meng Po, also opened her mouth wide in shock.

"Lady, you're not joking with me, are you?"

Meng Po looked at Hou Tu Niangniang helplessly and said, "We're both women; how can I help you give birth to a child?"

Meng Po felt it absurd, carefully studying Hou Tu Niangniang's face, as if checking whether she had been possessed.

"Pfft!"

At this moment, A Cha couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahaha, that's hilarious, Meng Po, you misunderstood!"

A Cha wiped tears from the corners of her eyes, laughing as she said, "Meng Po, Lady Hou Tu Niangniang isn't asking you to bear a child with her; she wants you to bear a child with a man she has chosen."

As for this, A Cha had already known beforehand.

After all, Hou Tu Niangniang wishes to complete the Dao of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and thus needs Ao Yifan and the Six Dao women to each nurture a life.

Human Dao is the primordial human race's A Cha.

And in the whole Underworld, Meng Po is the best candidate for the Hell Dao!
