Another major reason is that although Wang Yao's actions in the Underworld made King Pingdeng unhappy, he did do a lot for the Underworld. In fact, it is only natural for the Underworld to repay Wang Yao's kindness by doing some things for him.
Not only did King Pingdeng ignore Wang Yao, but King Wuguan was even less willing to do anything for the Old Man of the Moon, with whom he had a past grudge. Killing Wang Yao was out of the question, so the only option was to rightfully drive him away.
The fairy didn't want Wang Yao to confront these Yama Kings, and neither did the Yama Kings. If they really confronted each other, it would be the underworld that was in the wrong. Just based on all the things Wang Yao had done for the underworld, the Yama Kings would inevitably be branded as ungrateful.
At first, they hoped that Wang Yao could withstand the corpse energy on floor zero, but now that the fairy has led the Heavenly Court's tribulation-responding team here, and a large number of immortals are about to arrive, Wang Yao staying in the Underworld at this time is like a watch on a pocket watch, superfluous and an eyesore.
Therefore, the Five Statue King took this opportunity to bring up old matters, with the aim of reasonably driving Wang Yao out of the underworld in front of the fairy.
He thought that even the Heavenly Emperor couldn't resolve this ill-fated marriage, so Wang Yao, the newly appointed matchmaker, would surely be helpless as well. What could Wang Yao do? He could only slink away to the underworld with his tail between his legs. All his demands and everything he had done for the underworld would naturally be wiped clean.
Who knows, some of the things that the Kings of Hell failed to do might be pinned on him. The Old Man of the Moon is here to cause trouble; what kind of evil deeds wouldn't he do? As for whether the Heavenly Court will investigate Wang Yao or discover their frame-up, that's none of his business in the Underworld.
The Heavenly Emperor himself said that the conflict between the Matchmaker and the Underworld is an internal conflict within the Six Realms, and should be addressed primarily through criticism and education. Whether the Heavenly Court criticizes and educates the Matchmaker or the Underworld, it doesn't matter.
So, Wu Guan Wang thought that Wang Yao would back down after hearing his old stories, but to his surprise, the kid still told him to stop selling human weapons. Did this kid really have a way to sever the deadly marriage? Or was he just stubbornly sticking to his pride?
"Lord Yue Lao, you must be responsible for your words when you speak to a fairy. The Underworld has stopped selling human-machine hybrids. If you cannot resolve this doomed marriage, what will you say?" King Wu Guan asked calmly, his expression unchanged, despite his doubts.
"I misspoke. It's not a halt to sales, it should be a ban. From now on, any ghost in the underworld who dares to sell human-shaped artifacts should be punished as if they were killing or abusing ghosts," Wang Yao said with a smile. Realizing that his statement about halting the sale of human-shaped artifacts still had some flaws, he quickly added.
"No problem. But if my underworld does as you say and bans the sale of human artifacts, yet you still can't break the dead marriage bond, what will you do then?" King Five Senses didn't dwell on the words and continued to ask.
"Tell me, how can you say your dead marriage has been resolved? Did you and that ghost from the seventh floor get a marriage certificate? Did you register at the underworld marriage office? Would tearing up that marriage certificate still count?" Wang Yao asked with a smile.
This was no joke he was making with the Five Senses King. If canceling the marriage record in the Matchmaker System was used as the condition for breaking up a marriage, then he really couldn't do it. There were thousands of dead marriages stored in the Matchmaker System in Hui Shuo.
The grayish-white colors are impossible to erase; they remain there forever.
However, Wu Guan Wang and Xi Fu are not brothers who would risk their lives for each other. He shouldn't have a deep understanding of the Matchmaker System, so he probably wouldn't make such a demanding request. But Wang Yao is a cautious immortal, so he still wants Wu Guan Wang to make things clear in front of the Fairy before making any decisions.
"You jest, Old Man of the Moon. I had only known my wife for a short time when I realized I had fallen for your tricks. I rushed to Xi Fu to end our marriage, and we hadn't even had time to get our marriage certificate yet. Even if we had, this matter of ending our marriage involves emotions, so how can tearing up the marriage certificate be the basis for it?"
When King Wuguan heard Wang Yao's question, he shook his head repeatedly.
"If you can resolve this dead marriage for me, I will naturally feel something and no longer be attached to my wife. Once I have this feeling, then it will count."
“Listen to this, Fairy Maiden. King Wuguan is clearly trying to take advantage of me. Even though I have broken his marriage bond, he still pretends to miss the dead man. Even though I broke it, he can still say that it wasn’t broken!” Wang Yao said to Fairy Maiden.
“Yes, what the Old Man of the Moon says makes sense. Since it’s a witness, there naturally needs to be something that both parties can agree on. Your feelings alone don’t count.” The fairy nodded repeatedly.
Now even the Five Senses King was conflicted. Isn't it all about feelings when it comes to matters of the heart? Just like Wang Yao said before, he hadn't registered his marriage with the male ghost who went down seven floors, so how could he prove that his predestined marriage had been broken? He really didn't have a good idea.
"Then... how do you think it can be considered resolved?" After hesitating, King Wuguan had no choice but to ask Wang Yao.
"You're asking me? What can I do? You yourself said that only you have the feeling. I've solved it for you, but only you know it. What can I possibly do?" Wang Yao said, staring at him.
"Then... what do you suggest? I said I'd go by my gut feeling, but you wouldn't agree. I asked you to come up with a solution, but you couldn't either. Are you... just here to make fun of me?" King Wuguan became increasingly annoyed as he listened to Wang Yao's evasive answers.
“Yes, since the solution or not is in your hands, just tell me a solution. This way, neither left nor right works. Isn’t that the right attitude to solve a problem?” The fairy godmother said, helping the Five Senses King.
“That’s right, Fairy Maiden. Whether it’s resolved or not is in my hands, but only you, King of Five Senses, can come up with a solution. You miss your wife, King of Five Senses, but is playing the zither once a year enough? That doesn’t make sense! I believe you must have other ways to prove your feelings for your wife.”
