In this way, Wang Yao would have to deal with any spirits that appeared, whether in front or behind, leaving him no room for maneuver. If dealing with spirits was a difficult task, then Wang Yao's burden would be enormous.
What they didn't know was that Wang Yao's way of dealing with spirits was simply a matter of fate, requiring absolutely no effort. So for Wang Yao, as long as there were errands to run, it was as simple as eating and drinking.
"In that case, since the Old Man of the Moon doesn't need everyone to come along, then let's do it this way: King Qin Guang, King Song Di, the Fairy Maiden, and I will go with the Old Man of the Moon to the Underworld. Second Brother, you are the fastest among us Yama Kings, so you will be in charge of relaying messages back and forth."
Yama, the King of Hell, said to a gaunt Yama, “I will tell you in advance our planned route and the marks we will leave along the way. If we discover any spirits attacking, you must immediately notify us and send the Old Man of the Moon to deal with them.”
The King of Hell nodded.
"Cao Xian, since the Old Man of the Moon doesn't need any immortals to accompany him, we won't wait for the immortals from the office to arrive. We'll prepare to set off now. Those who remain, whether they are Yama, the Ghost Lord, or any of the ghosts in the underworld, will all be under your command. Please bear with us," Yama said to Cao Xian.
"You're putting this old man in a difficult position! I've been living a carefree life for thousands of years and have forgotten how to fight. I guess I'll have to give it a try." Cao Xian nodded helplessly.
"Fairy Maiden, Old Man of the Moon, we still have some things to arrange. Please wait a moment, we will depart immediately once we have made the arrangements," King Yama said to Wang Yao and the Fairy Maiden.
“We want to go to the front lines first. Do you know where Hui Shuo and Qin Su are?” Wang Yao asked after thinking for a moment.
"Um... let me ask. Before, the Old Man of the Moon's friend accompanied the immortals to the underworld in the fifth district of the West to face the tribulation. Now that the fifth district of the West has fallen, I wonder where they have retreated to?" King Yama explained after hearing this, and then took out his phone to make a call.
"Xiao Gu? Where are the Old Man of the Moon's monk friend and that little ghost girl now?"
"Lord Yama, before the fall of the Fifth District, they, along with the Dao Master of the Reincarnation Dao of this building, Dean Li of the Taiqing Immortal City General Hospital, and Doctor Huo of the Second Hospital of Taiqing Immortal City, had already been arranged by me to retreat to the Sixth District of the West."
Yama deliberately put his phone on speakerphone, and Gu Qi's anxious voice came through the line.
"Sir, the ghosts on the eighteenth floor are almost all dead. When will the ghosts on the seventeenth floor be able to join them?" Gu Qi then asked.
King Yama turned off the speakerphone and moved the phone to his ear.
"You just need to guard the defense line. It will take time and effort for the ghosts downstairs to migrate up. You still need to rely on the ghosts on this floor. In the entire underworld, your floor zero has the largest number of ghosts. You can't put all your hopes on the downstairs," Yama shouted.
"...What time is it now? Why are you still thinking about reincarnation? Once the Underworld is lost, what reincarnation is there to speak of? Right now, the entire Underworld is facing a calamity. No matter how high or low the building is, no matter how big or small the ghost is, everyone has the responsibility to face this calamity!"
"Those who make contributions during the tribulation will have no problem being reincarnated or going upstairs. Emperor Song has already drafted an emergency contribution procedure for the tribulation, which will soon be broadcast on the radio. Your task is to reassure everyone that the tribulation is going on in peace. We have taken into consideration the work that everyone has missed because of the tribulation."
"As long as we unite as one and overcome the great calamity of the corpse energy, there is a chance to make up for all the losses." King Yama gave some more instructions over the phone before hanging up and looking at Wang Yao.
"Now your holy monk friend, the female ghost Qin Su, are both in the Western Sixth District," said Yama.
“Then I’ll go with Fairy Maiden now. Once you’re ready, we’ll meet in West Sixth District and set off from there,” Wang Yao said.
"...Very well! I'll arrange for a ghost to escort you there." King Yama pondered for a moment, then nodded decisively.
The location they planned to go to was the construction area in the western fifth underworld district. There was no problem for Wang Yao and Xiangu to arrive in the western sixth district ahead of time. In fact, they could help relieve the pressure on the front line in the western sixth district. Yama had no reason to object.
"I've come to see off the Old Man of the Moon, I've come to see off the Old Man of the Moon..." Before Yama could finish speaking, a familiar, shrill voice suddenly rang out, and Eunuch Wei rushed into the room shouting.
Wang Yao was astonished to see a dark palm print on Eunuch Wei's fair face. He was greatly surprised. This Eunuch Wei was the Ghost Lord. Even Yama, the King of Hell, would not have an easy time slapping him. What was going on?
But then Wei Gonggong entered the room and knelt down in front of Wang Yao with a "plop".
"Thank you, Lord Yue Lao! Thank you so much! You have finally relieved my lord's heartache of many years. We are eternally grateful. We would go through fire and water for you without hesitation." Eunuch Wei banged his head on the ground, making a loud "thump" sound.
"Get up, get up, what are you doing? The marriage of the Five Senses King was arranged by my predecessor. Now that I have restored the authority of the Underworld Matchmaker, I should naturally fulfill my promise and end his troubles. There's no need to thank me for this. Just help me fulfill the promises that the King of Hell made to me one by one."
Wang Yao couldn't stand anyone kowtowing to him, not even a ghost, so he hurriedly shouted.
"His Highness has just woken up from his dream and hasn't calmed down yet. He thought this old servant was in the way and chased me away. This old servant doesn't dare to make decisions for His Highness, but since it was something that the Kings of Hell promised you, there will absolutely be no mistakes," Eunuch Wei cried out, lying on the ground.
“That’s right. Although we will consider things carefully beforehand, we will never go back on our word since we have already promised the Old Man of the Moon. You can rest assured, Old Man of the Moon. I am still considering which ghost god would be the most appropriate to send you to the Sixth District of the West. It’s good that Old Wei is here.”
