Another small amount of merit points were credited, merging into the dazzling light of merit that seemed to blind the stars.

Xinghe's bad mood of the past few days was swept away. She was a little hungry, so she didn't stand on ceremony and took an orange from the fruit plate in Boss Qian's living room and started peeling it.

The boy was very helpful, while the girl lingered in front of Zhong Guofu and the others.

The group looked dazed, completely still reeling from what had just happened.

Several seconds later, Zhong Guofu gave Boss Qian a push, and Boss Qian seemed to wake up from a dream and took two steps forward.

This time, his gaze towards the Milky Way was filled with more awe.

He was very careful, afraid of offending Xinghe. "I'll have dinner prepared right away. Please wait a moment."

After saying that, he immediately asked someone to prepare some snacks and fruit.

Mr. Qian is wealthy, and most of the fruit in his home is air-freighted from other places.

Cherries, strawberries, grapes—the aroma was so rich that even Xinghe's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, the only downside to expensive fruits is their price.

When she has money, she will buy several kilograms of it and keep it at home to eat slowly.

Xinghe took a break and fed the two little ones a few bites. It was the first time the two little ones had ever tasted fruit of this quality since Xinghe started eating it.

Their gazes toward Boss Qian became a little more friendly.

Afterwards, Boss Qian arranged a large table of delicacies, and before leaving, he packed up a lot of food for Xinghe to take away.

Xinghe couldn't refuse, so he happily got into the car.

Before leaving, Xinghe forced a smile off his face. "Although the food was good today, the fee for this matter cannot be reduced by a single penny!"

She has a large family to support, and she's bound to be indebted to those who give her gifts. So... let's just give her a 1% discount.

Mr. Qian said respectfully, "It's my duty, it's my duty. If it weren't for the fairy, my whole family would have died here. You are our family's savior."

Mr. Qian had already made up his mind. Even if he had to sell his company shares, it didn't matter. Nothing was more important than life.

Xinghe rattled off the accounts, "Fourteen life-saving talismans, ten exorcism talismans, five evil-dispelling talismans, sixteen divine weapon talismans..."

"The total is 196,000." Xinghe felt a pang of regret. "I'll give you 195,000 at most."

She spent a lot of effort this time and wasted so many talismans. The offerings to the Holy Lord also cost money, and if she spent any less, she would really lose money.

"How much?" Boss Qian almost cracked his voice.

Xinghe clutched the small bag filled with fruit and snacks, "I can't have any less!"

He's willing to give that half-baked Taoist priest Kang hundreds of millions, so surely he wouldn't be so stingy with this little bit of money for her!

Xinghe glanced at the expensive fruits and snacks, hesitated for a second, and said, "At most, at most another five hundred less."

If she spends even less, she won't even be able to cover the cost of the talismans!

Mr. Qian quickly replied, "The fairy priestess has put in so much effort, how could a mere hundred thousand yuan be enough?"

He took out a card and said, "There are 20 million in this card. It's just a small token of my appreciation."

Galaxy: ...

She hated those wicked rich people.

Xinghe turned his head and refused, "The price is what it is, clearly marked, not a penny more."

The extra money will be deducted from her merits.

That's how rigid and stingy the laws of nature are.

Mr. Qian looked troubled and glanced at Zhong Guofu. Zhong Guofu nodded at him, and only then did Mr. Qian transfer 196,000 yuan into Xinghe's account.

Feeling uneasy, Mr. Qian could only try to compensate Xinghe in other ways. "Several new types of fruit have been grown in my hometown. I'll have someone send them to the fairy maiden to try tomorrow."

Xinghe's eyes lit up, and the golden boy and jade girl on her shoulders also showed a hint of longing.

Xinghe patted Boss Qian on the shoulder, "If you need anything in the future, come to me, and I'll give you a 1% discount."

Mr. Qian's eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled. "Then I'll thank the fairy in advance."

Zhong Guofu was not to be outdone, saying, "I have a whole hill of nuts growing in my hometown, any kind will do, I'll have someone deliver them in a bit."

Zhong Guofu lowered his voice quietly, "Someone asked me about my company's recent affairs, and I recommended your lucky charm to him. He was very interested."

Xinghe patted Zhong Guofu on the shoulder again, "I knew I hadn't misjudged you, but I need to see the person before deciding whether to sell or not."

Mr. Qian asked, "I wonder if I have the honor of having a few talismans from the spirit medium placed in my home for disaster relief and warding off evil?"

Having closed another deal, Xinghe's wallet was a little fuller, and she returned home laden with a large bag of things.

After seeing Xinghe off, the Qian family was still in a daze.

They looked bewildered. Mrs. Qian was plump and looked quite wealthy.

She was originally in the room, but Xinghe later threw her into the circle to stay with Boss Qian and the others, so she witnessed the whole process.

She held onto Mr. Qian's hand and said, "Old Qian, I think I'm hallucinating. I actually saw ghosts, so many, so intense, and even... immortals."

She lowered her voice, as if she were in a dream.

"Pinch me right now, am I really dreaming?"

Mr. Qian couldn't hide his smile at all. "We've met a benefactor!"

He was happy one moment and worried the next. He wondered if Xinghe had taken the previous events to heart. Why didn't he believe Zhong Guofu back then and instead found a half-baked person?

If it weren't for the fairy, their whole family would have perished here tonight.

If it weren't for Master Kang's speed, he would have insisted on an explanation.

Now he needs to think carefully about how to get close to the fairy godmother.

The underworld.

Zhong Kui met the Ten Kings of Hell.

This is the first time in nearly a month that the Ten Kings of Hell have gathered together.

"Can she really force you to go?"

Zhong Kui thought for a moment and nodded. "Yes, I heard my name at that moment, and the next second, I appeared in the human world."

There is a complex procedure involved in inviting deities into the human realm.

Bathing, kowtowing, offering sacrifices, praying...

They must also obtain their consent before they can descend.

This time, he was summoned simply by hearing his own name, without waiting for a response.

King Qin Guang frowned. "I have been in the underworld for thousands of years and have never heard of such a thing."

King Yama laughed, "Interesting. This girl is getting more and more interesting. Let's invite her over for a chat in a couple of days."

The remaining eight Kings of Hell remained silent.

Although it's somewhat shameful for a human girl to get involved in the affairs of the underworld, it's still better than the current situation.

Five years ago, a great upheaval severed the passage between the Heavenly Realm and the Underworld. The Emperor of Fengdu and the Emperor of Dongyue lost contact at the same time. If the cycle of reincarnation cannot be reopened, the Underworld will surely be in great chaos.

"Now, we can only pin our hopes on her. Hopefully, our judgment this time is correct."

"Let's prepare as soon as possible; we can't delay any longer with the Samsara Bureau."
