Gu Li and Chao Yin were also in a daze, as if they saw the ancestral master enshrined in their sect.
They had never seen him before, were unsure, and dared not approach him to get to know him.
The eldest and fourth brothers of the Sheng family saw a familiar figure.
They chased after him and shouted, "Grandpa!"
The old ghost, who looked somewhat like the two men and had gray hair, paused when he heard their voices, then ran even faster.
The eldest and fourth sons of the Sheng family quickly chased after him, calling out, "Grandpa!"
"Why are you running? We haven't seen you in so long."
Sheng Xiuwen's father, Sheng Xingfa, who had been dead for several years, was so angry that his hair was about to explode. "Who is your grandfather? What are you calling him?"
Sheng Lao Si said anxiously, "You are our grandfather, have you forgotten? I was raised by you."
Sheng Xingfa glanced at Xinghe and lowered his voice, "Don't ever say I'm your grandfather in public. I can't afford to lose face like that."
Grandpa Sheng was devastated. "Why, Grandpa?"
“Little Leaf told me everything when she burned the paper money. They’re a bunch of heartless bastards who don’t even recognize their own sister.”
He spoke from a distance from the two brothers, his disdain written all over his face.
"You also think we did something wrong, but Shengyue is the little sister we watched grow up. What's wrong with us being good to her?"
"Yes, you think you're not wrong, but what about Xinghe? She grew up in that poor, remote place, and now that she's finally home, what have you given her?"
"Did she offend you? Going back is just issuing warnings and taking precautions. Is that for a criminal or for your own sister?"
Sheng Xingfa has been watching Xinghe's live stream since the first one, and Xinghe is truly a kind and warm person.
She didn't say it, but she actually helped countless ghosts, and the underworld is now at peace because of her.
He is truly proud to have such a granddaughter.
Sheng Xingfa said, "Stop talking. It seems Xinghe doesn't want to acknowledge you anymore."
He waved his hand dismissively, "Just stay away from me. Xinghe doesn't even know I exist yet. Don't drag me down with you guys."
After Sheng Xingfa finished speaking, he left nimbly, leaving behind the eldest and fourth Sheng brothers with complicated expressions.
After seeing off all the ghosts and underworld officials who came to say hello, Xinghe gathered everyone together.
"Alright, it's almost time, we should head back."
The crowd nodded blankly and followed Xinghe.
Cui Jue led a group of ghost messengers in another farewell ceremony.
After Xinghe saw them off, she didn't leave. Yama wanted to see her, and she hadn't had time to come over recently. Since she was already here today, she decided to go and see him.
Little did she know, the live stream went viral that night.
Searches for information about the underworld have surged.
#Underworld
#Do ghosts really exist in the world?
#TouroftheUnderworld
#The Fairy Maiden is a God
#Ox-Head and Horse-Face are kind of handsome
...
A series of trending topics were neatly arranged in the top ten of the trending topics list.
The online department monitored public opinion, and most people expressed surprise, never expecting that ghosts really existed.
Some people have questioned and expressed concern, saying that their world has been completely turned upside down.
Overall, public opinion is within a controllable range. As long as the truth is gradually revealed and any unnatural events occur, people will be able to accept it more easily.
The lucky ones who were chosen.
Xinghe walked easily to the fifth hall.
King Yama, King Qin Guang, and King Chu Jiang were waiting in the Fifth Hall.
Before Xinghe arrived, they had already exchanged several rounds of cold-smiling banter.
They're all liars. Saying that someone from the human world has come and having a welcoming ceremony would be beneath their underworld's dignity. They are ghosts and gods, after all.
As a result, each of the ten halls became more and more lively than the last.
Xinghe entered the hall, and they put away the fierce expressions on their faces.
King Yama chuckled, "Young friend, you've arrived. Please have a seat."
Xinghe plopped down opposite them. "I've been so busy these past few days that I only just managed to find some time."
"I understand, I understand. The underworld also has a lot of things to do."
"Busy collecting ghosts, and busy saving people?" King Qin Guang said, "Young friend, isn't that a bit unethical? The dead are under the jurisdiction of our Underworld. You just used a resurrection pill to save them?"
Xinghe touched his nose, feeling a little guilty.
"If a person's soul is still inside their body within an hour of death, it is not considered a true death in the strict sense."
"Their names have appeared in the Book of Life and Death! This is against the will of Heaven!"
Xinghe took out a Soul-Nourishing Pill from his pocket. "I had also refined a pill that could bring back the spirits of the dead within an hour, but now it seems..."
"However, on the other hand, life and death are predestined and wealth and honor are determined by fate. If one is not completely dead, then it is indeed not under the jurisdiction of our underworld."
Xinghe smiled and said, "King Qin Guang is more reasonable than the Heavenly Way."
Xinghe silently cursed the dog Tiandao a couple more times in his heart.
King Qin Guang coughed, somewhat embarrassed, and asked, "Then what about this elixir?"
Ghosts also die; once their souls are scattered, they disappear completely.
Even ghost messengers and spirits are no exception.
Xinghe placed the pills on the table. "These were originally made for you. There are ten pills here. As long as your soul is scattered within an hour, they can save you."
The three Yama Kings exchanged a glance and almost started fighting in front of Xinghe.
If Xinghe weren't still around, they would have completely broken off relations.
"Young friend, ten is a bit too few. You don't know, the fleeing evil spirits are getting stronger and stronger, and the death and injury rate of our ghost messengers is also high. Do you think you can give us a little more?"
Xinghe pretended to be embarrassed, saying, "The Soul Nourishing Pill is very complicated to make, and the necessary ingredients are hard to find."
"That's no problem, we can take care of the raw materials."
"I'm a bit busy."
"Don't worry, young friend, you will definitely not be treated unfairly. There are some Taoist treasures in the underworld. I will have someone bring them to you. You will also receive your merit points."
Xinghe was satisfied. "Alright, I'll refine another batch when the herbs arrive."
Both sides were delighted.
There was still one problem that hadn't been solved: neither King Qin Guang nor King Yama wanted to offend Xinghe, so they secretly kicked King Chu Jiang twice.
King Chujiang glared at them fiercely. “Young friend, there is one more thing. The more than a thousand evil spirits you have taken in should have been dealt with by our underworld. The bloodshed on their bodies is too heavy.”
"You guys handle it, fine!"
Xinghe's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to throw out all the more than a thousand female ghosts. "Great, go catch them, hurry up!"
The female ghosts, looking somewhat aggrieved, hid behind Xinghe.
She's finally going to shake off this group of con artists!
However, they became citizens of the Star River Realm, escaping the realm of ghosts, and the underworld officials had no way to deal with them.
After trying for a while, they still couldn't separate them from the Star River's domain.
Their souls merged with the realm of the stars.
It took Xinghe ten minutes to accept this cruel reality, and she almost burst into tears while hugging Yama.
