In the immortal realms, it’s rumored that Wang Yao, the Matchmaker, is untouchable. Offending others might lead to a fight, but offending the Matchmaker could lead to your family tree’s next versio...
"What is that?" King Pingdeng was looking at Wang Yao's back, feeling angry, anxious, helpless, and a little regretful, when suddenly a ghostly voice, which was blocking the corpse's energy, cried out in alarm.
Wang Yao was right about one thing: King Pingdeng was indeed used to lording it over everyone in the underworld. Even the Heavenly Emperor would give him some face. So he had long since developed the habit that once he said something, it was not to be refuted, questioned, or refused.
This is still because there are ten Kings of Hell. Even though the governance of the underworld has improved and there are no longer any conflicts of interest among them, wherever there are ghosts, there will always be conflicts. The struggle between the ten Kings of Hell is still quite fierce.
The various Yama Kings, in their daily interactions, always had to engage in alliances and compromises, which gradually smoothed out his temperament. That's why he had restrained himself and treated Wang Yao with kindness and gentleness. Otherwise, given Wang Yao's attitude, he would have been furious long ago.
Although he repeatedly reminded himself not to offend Wang Yao, when he truly felt offended, he could no longer suppress his anger. It wasn't until he realized that he couldn't control Wang Yao that he belatedly realized things were getting a bit complicated.
"What?" King Pingdeng turned his head and looked out through the black smoke emanating from the blocking ghosts. He saw a few yellow shadows hopping and skipping towards the blocking point.
"What the hell is that?" another ghost shouted in astonishment.
"Stand up! Don't let the corpse energy in!" King Pingdeng shouted. He noticed that wisps of black smoke were also starting to drift from his body, and he hurriedly called the blocking ghosts to take their positions.
He had just unleashed his power to subdue Wang Yao, but not only did the Old Man of the Moon escape unscathed, he also forced the blocking ghosts to prostrate themselves on the ground. A gap appeared in the space above, allowing a small amount of corpse energy to slip in.
"Ouch!" The ghosts felt the pressure relieved and hurriedly climbed up, but one of them suddenly cried out. The surrounding ghosts discovered that a small yellow thing was lying on him. The black smoke on that ghost suddenly billowed up, almost becoming a column of smoke rising upwards.
Immediately afterwards, a soft "crack" was heard, and the "glass" protective shield on the ghost's body shattered. He almost instantly entered a mild state of corpse aura and collapsed to the ground.
The little yellow thing jumped off the ghost and leaped towards another ghost. Only then did the ghosts see clearly that the yellow thing was less than the ghosts' knees tall, no more than thirty centimeters high, and was a smooth cylinder with rounded ends, like a large yellow capsule.
However, the capsule had a few black hairs growing from the top, just like hair. In the center of one side of the cylinder was a large eye, which even had a goggle attached to it. The goggle was secured to the cylinder with a thin rubber band on both sides.
There was no nose below the eyes, just a small mouth. Further down, the cylinder was wearing a pair of blue overalls. Below the straps of the overalls tied to the cylinder were two small arms, and below that were two nimble little legs.
The cylinder was a yellow capsule-shaped humanoid, or rather, a ghostly shape. Although the little yellow man looked quite cartoonish and cute, King Equality's expression instantly turned ugly when he saw this.
"High...high-level corpse...corpse puppet..." Gu Qi's expression changed drastically upon seeing this, and he stood up while stammering.
Just as the second Minion was tackled, another Minion hopped and skipped out from the front of the stairwell, and faintly, there seemed to be a yellow shadow flickering behind him.
Before King Pingdeng could speak, Guqi hurriedly jumped over, shouted, and with a swing of his arms, two sharp swords formed from yin energy slashed at the little yellow man who had just taken down another blocking ghost. As soon as the swords passed, the little yellow man, who had no defense whatsoever, was cleanly cut into three pieces.
However, the three severed pieces seemed to have elasticity. After bouncing a few times on the ground, the broken parts gradually stretched back to their original cylindrical shape, and all the necessary parts grew back. In no time, a little yellow man turned into three in front of the ghosts.
"Awooo!" Just then, the ghost that the Minions had knocked down first suddenly jumped up, howling as it pounced on Gucci. Gucci raised his hand and struck the ghost into oblivion.
But the three little yellow men had already grown up and started leaping and hopping towards the blocking ghosts. When the ghosts saw this, they were already scared out of their wits, but they dared not escape because of King Equality's power. They could only try to avoid the little yellow men's attacks and were all in a sorry state.
One by one, another ghost was tackled by a Minion.
“M-My Lord…” the ghosts screamed as they looked at Guqi and King Pingdeng.
"Don't panic! Guqi, this thing is condensed corpse energy, it needs to be worn down with soul power." As King Pingdeng spoke, he stepped forward. Although his steps were not fast, he was already next to the blocking ghost in the blink of an eye.
He simply stretched out one hand, and the Minion jumped around trying to dodge, but it was as if the King of Equality had a suction force in his palm. Despite the Minion's frantic movements, he still managed to firmly hold its head in his grasp.
With a hissing sound, thick black smoke billowed from King Equality's hand, and the little yellow man visibly shrank rapidly, like butter being fried in oil.
Seeing this, Gucci also used both hands to control a Minion and did the same, but the Minion shrank much slower than King Equality.
King Equality was tossing a Minion in his hand when he moved again and grabbed another Minion that was about to pounce on the blocking ghost.
