Wang Yao chuckled inwardly, thinking that this old fellow was still trying to curry favor with Yama. However, he also thought that the man in green robes had also fallen into the Three Passes Center, so it was only right to go and see what had happened there. In any case, there were still two immortals present, so he didn't have to take action himself, and he didn't object.
"Then..."
Seeing that Wang Yao seemed to agree with Gu Qi's suggestion, and looking at the black smoke rising from the surroundings of Hui Shuo and some of the blocking ghosts, King Pingdeng knew that Wang Yao and his companions were already familiar with the place. He then turned to look at the two immortals, Zhu Cong and You Junda.
"Of course, of course!" The two immortals agreed with smiles. You Junda then looked at Wang Yao and said with a smile, "You're the new Matchmaker? How come you have so much free time to come to the Underworld for fun?"
"I closed the underworld interface on my matchmaking interface this time. I've come to beg Lord Yama for mercy to reopen it for me, so that I can contribute to the harmonious development of the underworld," Wang Yao replied with a smile.
“The Old Man of the Moon’s underworld interface is closed by his facial features, so I cannot open it for him without permission.” Upon hearing Wang Yao’s words, King Pingdeng’s expression changed slightly.
"No problem, no problem. I've been imprisoned for so many years, I'm not in a hurry for this moment. I just wonder if, after this matter is settled, King Pingdeng could introduce me to Lord Wuguan?" Wang Yao knew that the matter of the corpse energy was urgent, so he didn't press the issue further and simply asked King Pingdeng with a smile.
Upon hearing this, King Pingdeng's expression became somewhat troubled. King Wuguan had caused Xifu considerable trouble back then, and Xifu was still suffering greatly from his influence. If he were to act as a mediator for the Old Man of the Moon, King Wuguan would most likely hold a grudge against him.
However, the calamity of the corpse energy can only be solved by asking the immortals for help. To ensure that nothing goes wrong, dozens of immortals stayed on the eighteenth floor, and only two were arranged to come down. They just wanted to use the matchmaker to make some noise. Anyway, they have held on until now, and sealing it off for a while longer should not be difficult.
Even the Old Man of the Moon hasn't used this opportunity to manipulate the Underworld. If King Pingdeng isn't even willing to introduce them, that would be unreasonable. With this in mind, King Pingdeng could only nod slightly.
Zhu Cong and You Junda greeted Wang Yao, then took out a stack of what looked like white paper from their respective storage devices. After finding one, they put the rest back into their storage devices and then unfolded the white paper in front of Wang Yao.
Wang Yao then realized that what the two of them had taken out were actually soul lanterns. He then saw the two of them take out lighters from their pockets, light the wicks in the soul lanterns, and carry them in their hands. Together, they walked through the defensive line formed by Hui Shuo and the ghosts towards the Underworld Queen's area.
Seeing the billowing black smoke and the faint glow of the protective shield as they walked, Wang Yao knew that the two of them were also using the immortal technique "Liuli" for protection.
Seeing that these two not only had soul fire, but also seemed to have more than one soul lamp, Wang Yao couldn't help but deeply resent the person who had taken in the ghosts for looking down on the immortals. They were all the same immortals, yet he only got one soul lamp, not even an extra wick. Look at them, their soul lamps were like homemade ones.
He was cursing inwardly when the phone suddenly rang like a death knell, and Wang Yao hurriedly ran over to answer it.
"Help! A ghost is killing me..." Only two cries came from the phone before there was no more sound. Wang Yao said "hello" a few times, and his face immediately turned ugly.
This route is in the underworld area. Everyone is busy sealing off the corpse energy. What kind of scoundrel went there to kill ghosts? Once all the ghosts that are being sealed off are killed, won't the corpse energy just rush in unimpeded? Wouldn't all our hard work be wasted?
"Lord Pingdeng, the phone call said that a ghost-killing incident has occurred on the main road of the Underworld District." Wang Yao looked at King Pingdeng, who naturally understood the seriousness of the matter. He remained silent, frowning as he looked at Gu Qi.
"Impossible! As you know, sir, I've even arranged for my men to prepare nourishing foods to support the various checkpoints at any time. How could I possibly allow the killing of ghosts to happen?" Gu Qi exclaimed in shock.
"There's no point in saying more. Let's hurry over to the Underworld area and take a look," said King Equality.
"My lord, please wait. Better safe than sorry. If a ghost-killing incident has indeed occurred in the Underworld District, the corpse energy may have already seeped in. My lord is of noble birth; it's best to stay here and let me go check it out," Gu Qi hurriedly said.
King Pingdeng hesitated for a moment, then turned and saw the expression on Wang Yao's face. His expression immediately darkened, and he reprimanded Gu Qi.
"Foolish! Once the Underworld Dwelling Area falls, where on your Zero Floor can I be absolutely safe? Why don't you quickly ask the Old Man of the Moon to take action? Let's go to the Underworld Dwelling Area together and see if there are any ungrateful ghosts causing trouble. No matter how powerful their backing is, they should be executed without mercy!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qi could only look at Wang Yao with a grim expression.
"Um... Lord Yue Lao, please..." He was afraid that Wang Yao would bring up the matter of the human vessel again at this critical juncture.
Wang Yao had indeed thought of this point. When he met King Pingdeng, he had already sealed off the corpse energy. If he made any further demands or requests, they would only look down on him. So he simply followed You Junda's words and mentioned the interface window.
As for the suspension of sales of human-machine interface, the disappearance of foreigners in the human realm, Lin Yazhi's transformation into a vengeful ghost due to the corpse energy, the matter of the lone Mo Luopo, and even the reincarnation of Fang Chengxian, the son of the green-robed man, it would be too long to explain. He planned to settle all accounts with the underworld after this matter was settled.
But the situation before him was different. Wang Yao had already made foolproof arrangements to block the spread of the virus. The incident of killing ghosts in the underworld had nothing to do with him. At this point, he could completely walk away. The underworld was in disarray, and all his efforts had been wasted.
I'll rearrange things once the murderer who killed the ghost is caught, and no one can say he's wrong.
