"You old hag, all you do is spread rumors. I'm too lazy to even scold you. Get out of my way, I'm in a hurry to get back to Heaven." The fairy spat as she walked forward.
"Oh dear, it's the fairy who cares about Old Qin. Knowing that his yang energy is strong, she's afraid that burning Old Qin's ghost body will cause it to disintegrate. Don't worry, your Old Qin has some skills too. He won't be able to withstand burning for too long. Just a short while is enough for the fairy to take care of him."
As they were talking, they met face to face in the alley, with King Qin Guang chuckling as he stood in front of the fairy.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll make sure you, you old scoundrel, can't even become a ghost!" the fairy scolded, her face flushed.
"You know what, Fairy, you actually look quite handsome when you get angry. I bet that exquisitely beautiful Lü Xian was won over by your scolding, wasn't he?" King Qin Guang didn't seem to care at all, just glaring at him and teasing him.
"Are you going to give way or not!" The fairy was truly enraged this time. She took a slight step back, showing signs of being about to make a move.
"No way! I'd rather die than let her! The Underworld is in a critical situation right now. As the leader of the rescue and disaster relief advance team, Fairy Maiden deserted her post. Old Qin begged and pleaded to stop her, but Fairy Maiden showed no regard for past feelings and just went ahead and killed him mercilessly. Old Qin's ghost body was torn to pieces. I have to say, Fairy Maiden, you've got some skill!"
King Qin Guang then adopted a rogue-like demeanor and simply stood in front of the fairy.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What desertion? I went to the Heavenly Court to ask for help on behalf of your Underworld. There are spirits in your Underworld that I can't deal with. Why would I stay here instead of asking for reinforcements?" The fairy maiden hurriedly explained, sensing the hidden meaning in King Qin Guang's words.
“Asking for help is easy. I’ve asked hundreds of times already. Here, this phone is compatible with all networks in the six realms. The Heavenly Emperor’s number is already entered. Just dial it.” King Qin Guang said, taking a phone out of his pocket and handing it to the fairy.
“I was afraid the Heavenly Emperor would find me annoying, so I kept looking for Li Jing. Since the Fairy is going to ask for help, it’s perfect. She can just call the Heavenly Emperor right here.”
"Oh dear, some things can't be explained clearly over the phone; they can only be said face-to-face," the fairy said, stamping her foot instead of answering the phone.
“My Lady Fairy, there are a few spirits in the Underworld, but the main problem is the corpse energy and corpse puppets. Now, the immortals in the Underworld only listen to your command. If you leave, what will happen if the other immortals follow you? Even if they don't leave, we can't command them.”
"Although our Underworld is a filthy place, I, Old Qin, am a man of taste. I'll make sure the fairy doesn't feel lonely in my Underworld. As for leaving? How about we wait until another leader from Heaven comes down before we leave?"
"If Qin still tries to stop you then, just slap him across the face." King Qin Guang's expression also turned serious.
"They dare not leave, it's not like I'm not coming back..." The fairy was anxious and took a step forward. She was a fairy, which naturally restrained the ghost body. Although King Qin Guang spoke fiercely, he did not forcibly stop her, but turned his body slightly to the side.
"Why wouldn't you dare? I've already received news that Old Man Shan upstairs has been possessed by a spirit, and all the immortals in the office have vanished without a trace. You're leaving again? Does the Heavenly Court no longer care about the Underworld?" King Qin Guang shouted anxiously.
"Old Shan Wu? You mean the immortal from the office? Where's Director Cao?"
Upon hearing King Qin Guang's shout, the fairy maiden stopped in her tracks. If all the immortals in the underworld had truly fled, she, as the highest-ranking immortal in the underworld at present, would not only be unable to leave, but would also likely have to bear the responsibility for mismanagement.
The director of the Heavenly Court's office in the Underworld is Cao Guojiu, who is an old acquaintance of the fairy and her husband. It is because of Cao Guojiu that the fairy dares to leave the Underworld at will. After all, even if the Heavenly Court investigates, Cao Guojiu will definitely cover for the fairy.
Unexpectedly, before the fairy could even get Cao Xian to cover for her, she had to find a way to cover for Cao Xian herself. Her expression turned serious, and she hurriedly asked.
"How would I know where Lao Cao ran off to? Things are in complete chaos up here. All the brothers are busy moving. The eldest doesn't know about the second brother's situation, and I haven't heard from Lao Cao for several days now." King Qin Guang shook his head repeatedly.
"Several days? Then... all the other Yama Kings are moving, how did you end up here?" the fairy asked in astonishment.
"Don't you know me, Old Qin? The women I've set my sights on, like Fairy Maiden, are all already taken. I'm a bachelor, what's the point of bringing them here? That's why I came to pave the way for you all," King Qin Guang laughed.
"Let's clean up the ten royal residences on the seventeenth floor first. We have to do our work, but we also have to keep living, right, Fairy?"
"In that case, I'll have to go upstairs and check first. Cao Xian's fate is unknown, which is a big deal." The fairy spat at King Qin Guang, then hesitated before speaking. Her relationship with Cao Xian was extraordinary, and she couldn't leave the Underworld easily until she found out Cao Xian's whereabouts.
“No need to go upstairs. It’s a complete mess up there, so there’s no point in going. We’ve discussed it and decided to stay on the seventeenth floor and launch a counterattack. I’m looking for my friend, Bu Ke Bu Jie. He’s quite skilled at dealing with spirits. If he arrives, we can hold our ground.”
King Qin Guang hurriedly advised him.
"A counterattack from the seventeenth floor? Does Cao Xian know about your plan?" the fairy asked.
"How could he know? It was precisely because we couldn't find Old Cao that we brothers came up with this plan. We'll have to trouble the Fairy Maiden to summon the immortals from floor zero to reorganize the defenses on the seventeenth floor," said King Qin Guang.
“Then I’ll go upstairs and take a look. You all stay on the seventeenth floor and get ready. I’ll go up and find Old Cao and then come down. His cultivation level is no lower than mine, so there shouldn’t be any problems up there,” the fairy said, shaking her head.
