His job was simply to relay the message to Zhang Tianle.

The Fang family patriarch, however, did not think so.

Like the president of the Metaphysics Guild, he believed that Zhang Tianle was capable of dealing with the drought demon.

So after Fang Tianci finished speaking, he immediately added, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I'm afraid only you can handle this matter. The cultivation levels of the existing Celestial Masters are probably about the same as the president of the Mysticism Guild, and they can't deal with this drought demon."

Liu Yiyi was not satisfied with these words: "Good heavens, listen to what you are saying. You mean other people's lives are lives, but my senior brother's life is not? You want my senior brother to do the things that other celestial masters can't do? Do you think my senior brother can really handle it?"

If my senior brother can't handle it, who will guarantee his safety? You?

Furthermore, this work was clearly done by the Celestial Master's Mansion, which receives government stipends, but now it's being pushed onto my senior brother. When you were getting paid, why didn't you think of my senior brother? Now that you can't handle it yourselves, you're dumping the hard and tiring work on him.

How shameless!

Liu Yiyi's words left the Fang family patriarch speechless.

He fell silent.

He only subjectively believed that Zhang Tianle could handle this drought demon.

However, the drought demon's cultivation level has always been ridiculously high.

In the past, when drought demons like this appeared, it would take two celestial masters of the highest rank or above to deal with them.

One fought the drought demon, while the other ensured that the aftershocks of their battle wouldn't cause widespread damage to the city, thus protecting as many people as possible.

A top-tier Celestial Master is capable of dealing with drought demons.

This is a well-known fact.

However, sealing the drought demon definitely requires two people.

The Fang family patriarch opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he choked back his words.

After a moment of silence, the Fang family patriarch gave a wry smile: "This was indeed something I didn't consider carefully. If you find it difficult, then forget it."

Zhang Tianle is not a member of the Celestial Master's Mansion either.

There's absolutely no need to concern ourselves with these things.

"I'll go."

Just then, Zhang Tianle spoke up.

Just now, the dog system issued him a task.

[Mission: Seal or slay the drought demon.]

[Reward: 200 years of cultivation.]

Two hundred years of cultivation.

This greatly appealed to Zhang Tianle.

Because among the various spells provided by the system, many are high-level spells that require a high level of cultivation to support them.

Therefore, there are many techniques that appeal to him, but he is unable to activate them with his current cultivation level.

It's hard for him not to be tempted by such a reward for his cultivation level.

"Senior brother, this is very dangerous. That's a drought demon, not an ordinary little zombie or ghost." Liu Yiyi grabbed Zhang Tianle.

She thought her senior brother must have gone mad.

If even the Celestial Masters of the Celestial Master's Mansion are unwilling to deal with this, how could it be her senior brother's place to meddle?

At this moment, Liu Yiyi's dissatisfaction with the Celestial Master's Mansion reached its peak.

“I know what I'm doing.” Zhang Tianle took out the token of the Wheel King.

When Liu Yiyi saw her senior brother take out the Wheel King's token again, her lips twitched slightly: "Senior brother, there's something I've always wanted to ask you, and that is, is it okay that you keep owing favors to the Underworld?"

For convenience, his senior brother frequently used the underworld's pathways.

This Yin Road is a resource of the Underworld. Even if a Celestial Master borrows the Yin Road, the Underworld will register it and it must be returned in the future.

If the underworld needs help in the future, they will naturally offer their assistance.

This is the consequence they owe.

If this karmic debt is not repaid, it will generate a lot of negative karma.

Therefore, she became worried about her senior brother's frequent use of the Yin Road.

“It’s alright.” Zhang Tianle took out the merit seal given to him by King Yama: “This is something the Underworld owes me. If they don’t repay this favor, King Yama and the others will probably be even more uneasy.”

Liu Yiyi's lips twitched as she looked at the Golden Seal of Merit in Zhang Tianle's hand.

Just how much merit did the underworld owe her senior brother that it would give up so many merit seals for him to repay the debt?

As Liu Yiyi was thinking this, Zhang Tianle shook the token of the Wheel King.

The gates of hell opened in an instant.

Lu Wuchang's figure emerged from the gates of hell.

"Master Zhang, what are you doing...?"

"Could you please take me to SX Province..." Zhang Tianle looked at Fang Tianci.

Fang Tianci quickly gave the specific address: "Zaohong Village, XY City".

Lu Wuchang's lips twitched slightly: "What are you doing there? I just heard from my colleague that there seems to be a drought demon there."

At this point, Lu Wuchang paused and looked at Zhang Tianle: "You wouldn't be thinking of getting rid of that drought demon, would you?"

Getting rid of the drought demon is no easy task.

It could very well lead to widespread bloodshed and devastation.

Of course, if the drought demon is not eliminated, then there will be even more devastation and bloodshed, with even more people dying.

"I'll go check out the situation first."

Since Zhang Tianle had already said that, what could Lu Wuchang say? He opened the gates of hell for him.

"Master Zhang, please." Lu Wuchang led the way for Zhang Tianle.

Zhang Tianle glanced at Fang Tianci and the Fang family patriarch.

When Zhang Tianle looked at him, Fang Tianci shook his head vigorously.

He wouldn't dare take the path of the dead.

Try it and you might actually die.

“Master, my strength is too weak to try this thing.” Fang Tianci remembered the teachings of his ancestors: only those who walk the path of the dead or those who are Heavenly Master level experts are qualified to enter this Yin Road.

If anyone else steps in, they will be killed instantly.

He's still young and wants to live for several more decades.

"It's alright, I'll take you." Zhang Tianle slipped a small golden seal of merit into Fang Tianci's hand, then pulled him into the underworld.

The Fang family patriarch's lips twitched. Since his own descendants had all entered the underworld, there was no reason for him, the patriarch, to be left behind.

So he too stepped into the path to the underworld.

Lu Wuchang watched the two people and the ghost step into the Yin Road, his lips twitched slightly, but he didn't say much, and led them to Zaohong Village, XY City, SX Province.

Upon arriving at Zaohong Village, a wave of heat hit us.

Although it is winter, it is hotter than summer in Zaohong Village.

The perceived temperature is probably around 35 or 36 degrees Celsius.

Wearing a jacket, Zhang Tianle instantly felt the heat wave.

Fang Tianci, who was being held and protected by Zhang Tianle, had just felt the peculiarity of the Yin Road and was now dizzy and disoriented. When the heat wave hit him, he vomited with a "whoosh".

This was something he never expected.

The temperature in SX, which had already dropped below zero, suddenly rose to over thirty degrees Celsius.

This feels like summer has arrived in an instant.

"Crackling and popping!"

Just as they emerged from the brink of death, they heard a series of crackling sounds from burning trees.

Zhang Tianle looked over.

Everywhere you look, the trees are withered and yellow, and in the distance, flames are already raging.

Upon seeing this scene, the Fang family patriarch, who had come with them, changed his expression.
