"Once you arrive at the creative group, anyone who dares to obstruct you, have that Ghost Lord kill them on the spot. I won't mention Fang Chengxian's name in my edict. If you have any other ghosts who want to change their fates, deal with them all as well. What do you think?" King Qin Guang said.
"As for your wish to leave the Underworld with Hui Shuo and the other two, the Underworld will certainly not stop you. However, I do know that Xi Fu once held off Shiva's army of nearly ten thousand spirits with the power of a single immortal in West Kunlun. I wonder if you could also give it a try in the Underworld?"
"What? He can deal with spirit bodies?" King Wuguan's face remained expressionless as he listened to King Qin Guang's words, but upon hearing the last part, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Back then, as the leader of the underworld who was summoned to resist the foreign god, I led the ghost army to garrison in West Kunlun. Xi Fu repelled the army of Shiva's spirit. Although I don't know what method he used, I think it was inseparable from the exclusive magic of the Old Man of the Moon," said King Qin Guang.
"That spirit is indeed extremely troublesome. The key is that it has form but no substance, making it difficult to deal with. In the entire Six Realms, there are very few powerful beings who can deal with spirits. The fairy went to the Heavenly Court for help, but to be honest, I have no confidence at all that she can get it."
"Looking at all the powerful beings who can deal with the spirit body, they almost all have one thing in common: they are extremely skilled in matters between men and women and adept at harmonizing yin and yang. You, the Old Man of the Moon, are a master of this art. You must have unique secrets for dealing with the spirit body. Please do not keep them to yourself."
"As long as you resolve the great calamity of my underworld, not only will you stop selling human artifacts in my underworld, but you can also make all the shopping centers in my underworld close down. I, Old Qin, pat my chest and promise you this, and no one will dare to say a word against it."
Hearing King Qin Guang's words, although he spoke very tactfully, Wang Yao couldn't help but turn pale. He, the matchmaker, was in charge of matchmaking, not doing anything prostitution-related. King Qin Guang had seriously distorted his profession.
Little did he know that King Qin Guang was truly anxious. When trouble struck the Underworld, they could only rely on the Heavenly Court for rescue. Corpse energy and corpse puppets were generally not a problem for any immortal, but the essence body was the nemesis of immortals.
The spirit is most adept at using the immortal body as a nest. Once it occupies the immortal body, it can manipulate the immortal body to fight against enemies. The immortal body happens to be the nemesis of the ghost race, so if the spirit cannot be captured, the entire underworld may truly fall.
Waiting for Heaven's rescue was extremely unlikely. He had even considered begging Heaven to release Xi Fu, but he knew that this would be incredibly difficult. Now that he knew Wang Yao was the newly appointed matchmaker, how could he not be grateful for such a treasure? Of course, he had to ask him to try to deal with the spirit body.
"Solve your underworld calamity? Your Highness, you flatter me too much. Even so many Yama Kings and immortals can't solve it, what use is a mere matchmaker like me? Your Highness, don't joke with me. I'm already extremely grateful that you spared Wuying and the others. I'll take my leave now."
As Wang Yao spoke, he cupped his hands in a salute to King Qin Guang, then turned to leave. He was joking, of course. Even if he knew how to deal with spirits, given the way the underworld behaved, he had no interest in helping and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
"Xiao Wang, wait a minute..." But the fairy maiden beside her called out hurriedly. "Could you come upstairs with me? That... matter is negotiable. Maybe I can even try to get medical parole from the Heavenly Emperor."
The fairy said this because King Qin Guang's words reminded her. She suddenly remembered that those in the Heavenly Court who could deal with spirit bodies were indeed some unreliable immortals, who seemed to be quite good at matters between men and women. Now, she was filled with confidence in Wang Yao.
Cao Xian was determined to go and save him. She knew Wang Yao's thoughts and Xi Fu's situation, so this promise was not just empty words. As an immortal who was about to pass away, the symbolic significance of Xi Fu's capture far outweighed its practical significance.
Therefore, medical parole is not impossible. Based on her understanding of the Heavenly Emperor, she is very confident that he will grant her request. However, this would inevitably offend Taibai Jinxing, but at this critical moment, the fairy maiden can't care about so much.
Upon hearing the fairy's words, Wang Yao immediately stopped in his tracks.
"Medical parole? Yes, that's one way!"
His heart stirred with excitement. This method was excellent; it would neither violate the heavenly laws nor prevent Xi Fu from suffering imprisonment.
But... even a fool could figure out why the fairy wanted him to accompany her upstairs. How could he possibly know what kind of spirit he was dealing with? If he had known, he wouldn't have been so foolish in the Underworld Zone on Floor Zero, and he only managed to escape thanks to the fairy.
"Um... I really don't know how to deal with the spirit body. Even if I wanted to help it find a partner, the interface panel is still closed, so I can't help you!" Wang Yao said to the fairy.
Upon hearing Wang Yao's words, the fairy immediately raised her eyes and looked at the Five Statue King.
"Five Senses, I can't be bothered with your old grudges with the Old Man of the Moon. Now we need to rescue the high-ranking leaders of the Heavenly Court. Are you also planning to settle personal scores and refuse to open the Underworld interface for the Old Man of the Moon?"
"That..." King Wuguan was dumbfounded. The fairy's words were very serious. However, Cao Xian was indeed a high-ranking leader in the Heavenly Court. If he insisted, he would not only offend the fairy, but also the Heavenly Emperor.
In the past, King Wuguan might not have cared. To put it bluntly, the King of Hell in the underworld was similar to the feudal lords in the human world. As long as he stayed in the underworld and did not leave, even if he offended the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor could do nothing about him unless he wanted to start a war with the underworld.
But things are different now. The Underworld is begging the Heavenly Court for help. If the Heavenly Court is offended, and the Heavenly Emperor abandons the Underworld, or even if the Heavenly Court doesn't send reinforcements, the Underworld will be in serious trouble.
