Just then, Ye Yuqiao suddenly entered the courtyard.

"Yuqiao!" Chen Hao exclaimed excitedly upon seeing Ye Yuqiao. Earlier today in the Eighteen Levels of Hell, they had parted on bad terms because he could not decide what to do with the string of beads.

Ye Yuqiao glared at Chen Hao, her face soon reflecting a look of grievance.

Chen Hao immediately approached her, then walked up to her and took hold of her hands, saying, "You've arrived just in time, Niu Tou just said there's a way to revive Tang Jing's Yin Soul."

"Really?" Ye Yuqiao exclaimed, then took Chen Hao's hand and hurried to Niu Tou.

"Niu Tou, quickly tell us what the method is!" Ye Yuqiao urged excitedly.

Niu Tou first respectfully bowed to Ye Yuqiao and then said, "Did Family Leader Zhao tell you that her Yin Soul was ultimately attached to a string of beads?"

"It is this string of beads!" Chen Hao lifted up the beads in his hand.

"Just by throwing this string of beads into the Samsara Path, her Yin Soul will be able to recover," said Niu Tou.

Xie Xiaofeng was greatly disappointed, "But won't she have to reincarnate if it's thrown into the Samsara Path?"

"Not necessarily," Niu Tou said, "The Samsara Path has three segments: the first is Reflection, which allows one to recall the experiences of this life; the second is Life Determination, deciding the destiny for the next life; the third is Rebirth, where one is reincarnated into the mortal world, forgetting the memories of past lives."

"Tang Jing's Yin Soul will revive during the second segment, and if her Yin Soul can avoid the Life Determination during this stage, we can bring her back."

"How can we avoid the Life Determination?" Ye Yuqiao asked eagerly.

"Barrier!" Niu Tou replied, "A person's Yin Soul needs to enter the Samsara Path with her, and immediately cast a Barrier upon her soul's revival to prevent the Life Determination from binding to her Yin Soul."

"Let me go," Chen Hao said.

Ye Yuqiao frowned!

"Yang King, are you sure you want to go?" Niu Tou looked at Chen Hao with doubt, "I have seen your Three-Life Stone; you and Miss Tang have a bond spanning three lives. If something goes wrong when you're there, it's possible you too could end up reincarnating, and in the next life, you and she could consummate your relationship."

"Ah!" Chen Hao was taken aback.

"I'll go!" Xie Xiaofeng spoke up, "I love her, and even if I can't successfully stop us from being life-determined, I want to confess to her in the last moments."

Niu Tou nodded, then said, "But you need to think this through. Originally, both you and Miss Tang were not yet due to end your lives. If both of you are life-determined and enter the Rebirth phase, both of you might either perish due to clashing lifespans or incarnate as animals."

"I'm not afraid!" Xie Xiaofeng smiled, "If I do become an animal, I hope to become a pair of lovebirds with her."

..

..

A quarter hour later.

Chen Hao and his group arrived at the entrance to the Samsara Path.

"Xie Xiaofeng, do you want to return to the mortal world to see your family before entering the Samsara Path?" Chen Hao suggested.

Xie Xiaofeng smiled and shook his head, then punched Chen Hao's right shoulder, "Asshole, are you really that uninterested in me? Remember, no matter what you decided to do, I always had faith in you."

"Of course I believe in you!"

Chen Hao stepped forward and hugged Xie Xiaofeng, whispering in his ear, "Xie Xiaofeng, you must come back, I'm still waiting for you to be my best man."

"Ah, you're getting married to Yuqiao! Because of what you said, I must come back!"

After parting, Xie Xiaofeng walked up to Ye Yuqiao. "Goddess, before I leave, can we embrace once more, to fulfill a wish in my heart?"

Ye Yuqiao smiled and then gently embraced Xie Xiaofeng. She whispered in his ear, "Xie Xiaofeng, you must bring Tang Jing back."

"I know," responded Xie Xiaofeng with a look of enjoyment, "you're waiting for Tang Jing to be your bridesmaid."

Then, Xie Xiaofeng's Yin Soul left his body. Under the watch of Chen Hao, Ye Yuqiao, and Niu Tou, he jumped into the Samsara Path.

In the first two minutes of entering the Samsara Path, all he saw was darkness.

Then, in the darkness, countless points radiating light appeared, resembling a brilliant starry sky.

Immediately after, the starlight converged, forming faces. There were Xie Xiaofeng's parents, grandparents, and family members, as well as Chen Hao, Lin Xiaofan, Tang Jing, and Tang Chao, among others.

The starlight continued to intersect, creating various scenes—all experiences from Xie Xiaofeng's life: family gatherings spanning three generations, time spent as a child with Chen Hao and Lin Xiaofan, his youthful high school days with the four young overlords, and the thrilling path of exorcising demons after graduation with Chen Hao, Ye Yuqiao, Tang Jing, and Tang Chao.

Watching these scenes, Xie Xiaofeng was overwhelmed with emotions, feeling that his life had once been so wonderful and beautiful.

In the blink of an eye, the starlight dimmed.

In its place appeared strange golden symbols, like mysterious celestial script.

"These symbols must be the runes that determine the next life!" Xie Xiaofeng was startled. Immediately, he took out the prayer beads from his pocket and released the Primordial Spirit and Primordial Soul inside.

Gradually, those Primordial Spirits and Souls gathered together under an invisible force, forming a complete soul.

Seeing Tang Jing's familiar silhouette, Xie Xiaofeng was overjoyed. He moved forward and took Tang Jing's hand.

Following that, he began to cast the Yin Yang Arts, attempting to envelop himself and Tang Jing's Yin Soul within a Barrier.

However, he suddenly discovered that an invisible force was preventing him, making it impossible to cast the Barrier.

"Xie Xiaofeng!" Tang Jing suddenly opened her eyes and spoke, "Where is this, how can I still see you, wasn't I already..."

"This is the Samsara Path!" Xie Xiaofeng hurriedly said, "Tang Jing, I don't have time to explain so much."

He gripped Tang Jing's hands tightly, gazing into her eyes earnestly, "Tang Jing, there's something I must tell you, I don't want to leave any regrets. I like you!"

Tang Jing was shocked!

"I don't know when it started, but I fell in love with you. You're a good girl, kind, beautiful, in great shape, hardworking, sincere to others, and very loyal to friends. In short, you are perfect in my eyes, and I can't find any reason not to like you."

"Xie Xiaofeng, you..." Tang Jing was completely flustered, startled by Xie Xiaofeng's sudden confession.

"I know the person you've always liked is that jerk, and you also have a bond with him spanning three lifetimes. But what does that matter? I believe that someday I will touch your heart, altering our destined fate and relationship, just like that jerk did everything he could to be with Yuqiao. He has already succeeded, isn't that the best proof?"

"But I'm already dead, even if we could leave here, I also..."

Before Tang Jing could finish, Xie Xiaofeng suddenly leaned in and kissed her.

Tang Jing's eyes widened, and she was petrified.

Quickly, the two separated.

"Xie Xiaofeng, you are really getting more presumptuous!" Tang Jing said fiercely, glaring at him.

Just then, the strange golden symbols swirling around them began to converge towards them.
