King Wuguan glanced at Wang Yao, then at King Qin Guang, and suddenly smiled slightly.
"Old Qin, you must have misunderstood. How could I dare to offend a celestial being from Heaven? It's just that this Old Man of the Moon boasted that he could break the doomed marriage that Xi Fu planted on me back then, so I planned to make an agreement with him, promising to do so once he helped me break this doomed marriage..."
"I then processed his requests, such as banning the sale of human artifacts in the underworld and opening the underworld interface of the Matchmaker's interface board. However, he asked me to open the underworld interface of the Matchmaker's interface board for him first. I insisted that the dead marriage entanglement on my body must be resolved first."
"Therefore, an agreement cannot be reached. The Old Man of the Moon left the Underworld in a huff because his demands could not be met. As for the Fairy Maiden, she naturally wanted to protect the Old Man of the Moon and leave with him. How could I dare to offend the Heavenly Court's leadership? Old Man of the Moon, don't you agree?"
Wang Wuguan spoke casually, then turned to ask Wang Yao.
He knew in his heart that King Pingdeng had not informed King Qin Guang about Wang Yao's matter. With everyone facing each other, he couldn't bring up everything Wang Yao had done for the underworld. So he simply said that the two sides only had a contractual dispute.
Not only that, he also specifically mentioned Wang Yao's two requests. He was telling King Qin Guang that the Old Man of the Moon had great ambitions in the Underworld, and asked him to ban the sale of human artifacts in the Underworld. On what grounds? Even the Heavenly Emperor had never made such an excessive request.
Opening the Underworld window in the Matchmaker's interface is a reminder to King Qin Guang that once he restores the Underworld's authority to this person, he can expect to be matched with a strange and inexplicable marriage himself.
“Five Senses King, you’re not being honest. I’ve been fighting off the corpse energy in the Netherworld for quite some time on Floor Zero, holding out until our rescue team arrived. Without my efforts, Floor Zero would have fallen long ago.”
Before Wang Yao could answer after hearing what the Five Senses King said, the Fairy Maiden spoke first with a frown. After all, the Fairy Maiden was no naive immortal. She had risen from mortal to immortal and had spent many years in the Heavenly Court. How could she not understand the subtle nuances in her words?
Since she had agreed to go back and make another trip with King Qin Guang, she was naturally unwilling to waste her efforts. She wanted Wang Yao to accompany her upstairs to rescue Cao Xian. Since she needed Wang Yao, she naturally had to smooth things over with him. Otherwise, Wang Yao might not be willing to give her that kind of face.
Previously, when Wang Yao made a pact with the Five Senses King, the fairy maiden had no intention of acting as the guarantor and was eager to leave the Underworld. Naturally, she pretended to be deaf and dumb about some things, only wanting to leave with Wang Yao as soon as possible. Now that her purpose has changed, her thoughts and ideas are naturally very different.
The fairy immediately brought up Wang Yao's contributions to the underworld.
"Not to mention that Xiao Wang even offered to help you break that dead marriage, even if Xiao Wang didn't have that ability, just based on the fact that he resisted the corpse energy for your underworld for so long, even if he made some requests, it's not like he wants you, the King of Hell, to commit any fundamental mistakes."
"It's just that your Underworld sold one less thing. Restoring his original authority as the Matchmaker, shouldn't your Underworld have done that for him? Besides, if you don't restore the Matchmaker's interface for me, how can I resolve that dead marriage for you here?"
"Do you think you can go to the human realm with me? I already said that you should open it for him first, and if he can't solve it, you can close it. It's just a matter of moving your fingers. But you insist on not doing so and are deliberately making things difficult. To be honest, I was planning to talk to the Heavenly Emperor about this."
"Now the Kings of Hell in the Underworld are indeed very arrogant. It seems they've reaped enough benefits and become too powerful. They not only disregard the immortals of Heaven, but probably even a powerful figure like the Heavenly Emperor doesn't take them seriously," the fairy said coldly.
"Oh, is that so? Well... it's not that it can't be discussed..." King Qin Guang frowned upon hearing the fairy's words and muttered to himself.
“Brother Wang, don’t be mistaken. Banning the sale of human-machine interface and restoring the Yue Lao interface to the Underworld are not all of our Yue Lao’s requirements. He has many other requirements that he hasn’t mentioned yet,” Five Senses King said with a smile.
“Of course, I’ve come all this way to the Underworld, how could I come for just one or two things? There’s another matter that’s actually related to the current great calamity of corpse energy in your Underworld.” Wang Yao smiled slightly and said calmly.
He had actually given up hope that these Yama Kings could solve his problems, but he increasingly felt that Lin Yazhi's affairs and the Zhidu Shengshi Fanhua Hotel's affairs were inextricably linked to this great calamity in the underworld.
Now that I'm back, I might as well tell the two Kings of Hell about these two things. Perhaps it will help them resist the corpse energy. As for the rest, I'll just have to wait until I go to the Immortal Realm to make further plans.
"...I think both of these things are related to your Netherworld Calamity. At the time, I thought it was because some ghosts from your Netherworld had wandered into the human world and were causing trouble. But now that I think about it, that's probably not the case. I feel that you still don't have a clue about the cause of the calamity. So I'm just providing you with a reference."
Wang Yao recounted the story of Lin Yazhi and the Grand Hotel in detail to the three of them.
"Are you sure that what you saw in the basement of the Grand Hotel in the human realm was a spirit body?" the fairy asked first. After all, the human realm was under the jurisdiction of her husband, Lu Xian. If a spirit body appeared there, her husband would be in great danger, so she was naturally concerned.
“It should be, but the one I saw in the basement of the hotel was a long-haired man, while the one you saw in the Underworld Zone on floor zero was a bald man,” Wang Yao said.
"One thing is certain: if the higher-ups in my underworld decide to send a ghost to another realm, it must be decided through the office meeting of the Ten Kings of Hell. We haven't sent any ghosts out in recent years."
