"However, I heard that his brothers are doing quite well in the Demon Realm, so..." The fairy murmured as she introduced Li Kui's background to Wang Yao.
When Wang Yao heard that Director Li actually had more than a hundred brothers, his teeth started chattering. Good heavens, no wonder that guy surnamed Li was so arrogant at Nantianmen, he had so many brothers! This isn't just having a background, this is real power!
If this were in the human world, it would be considered a village bully in the countryside, and a proper criminal gang in the city!
No wonder the Heavenly Court sent these guys to the Demon Realm. More than a hundred of them swarmed in, and even if they didn't fight, their chatter alone would drive the immortals crazy.
“More than a hundred brothers…this…this Director Li’s mother is truly great…” Wang Yao sighed dejectedly. Indeed, none of those who can become immortals are simple.
"What nonsense are you thinking? He's a sworn brother, not a biological brother," the fairy maiden spat.
"Uh...sworn brothers? The kind who burn yellow paper, chop off chicken heads, not seeking to be born in the same year and month, but seeking to die in the same year and month?" Wang Yao suddenly realized, that makes sense, more than a hundred brothers, that's beyond the physiological capacity of an immortal.
“That’s right, sworn brothers, this kind of situation is quite common in the Six Realms…” the fairy said.
"No need to consider that. If we were all in the Immortal Realm, we would have to be more careful. But in the Demon Realm, we don't need to worry so much. Think about it, we're just asking him to take the blame, not attacking or killing him. In the end, it's the Heavenly Court that will offend him. His brothers in the Demon Realm, how would they know the details?"
“That guy surnamed Li isn’t very bright. If we speak up for him, who can say we’re wrong? Besides, he has over a hundred sworn brothers. Can he guarantee that he treats each of them like a real brother? If one or two of them hold us back, who can blame us?” Wang Yao said.
“That makes sense. Hmm, back then, his brothers offended quite a few immortals in the celestial realm, and it seems they also had some disagreements with Laozi. Using him as a scapegoat is a win-win situation.” The fairy nodded slowly after hearing what Wang Yao said.
"That's it! Two men and one woman, the gender balance of the group has been taken into account, that's great!" The fairy finally made up her mind, and then took out her phone to tell the Zhenxingjun the names of Wang Yao, Fairy Caixia, and Li Kui.
Wang Yao listened from the side. Li Kui had no problem with it, but Zhen Xingjun seemed a little hesitant about Caixia Fairy. However, after the fairy insisted a little, he agreed. Wang Yao never expected that the problem would actually be with him. The fairy and the star lord talked about his joining the group for a long time.
After hanging up the phone, the fairy shrew stared intently at Wang Yao, making him feel uneasy.
"Hey, what are you looking at? Tell me what's going on!" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask.
"Tell me the truth, when did you get involved with Venus?" the fairy asked.
“Venus? How is that possible?” Wang Yao shook his head repeatedly.
"You have no connection with him? Then why did Li Jing's team include your name? As far as I know, you have no connection with Li Jing," the fairy asked.
“Li Jing?... Oh, I remember now, there was a Director Qiu in the underground parking lot of the Grand Hotel who told me to report to him after I finished my business here,” Wang Yao said suddenly.
"Director Qiu? Is his name Qiu Chuji?" the fairy asked.
"That seems to be the name." Wang Yao nodded.
"You agreed?" the fairy asked again.
"I don't know. They're all leaders. He was with Ma Gu, and he spoke in a very old-fashioned way. I thought he was a new leader in the office, so I just nodded casually. He didn't say what he was doing," Wang Yao hurriedly explained to the fairy.
“I have already spoken to Xingjun. My team only has three members. Director Li can mobilize celestial soldiers and generals, so there is no shortage of celestial hands. Therefore, I asked him to give you to me. Xingjun agreed to discuss it with Director Li. I have a good relationship with Director Li, so there should be no problem.”
The fairy nodded, her expression softening.
"Qiu Chuji is Li Jing's deputy and the deputy director of the Liuan Committee. It's not a problem if he takes a liking to you. What I'm afraid of is that it's Venus who takes a liking to you. That would be very troublesome. Director Li can't make the decision, and the Star Lord is not easy to coordinate either. Since it's someone surnamed Qiu who takes a liking to you, then it's fine."
The fairy explained the situation to Wang Yao, then put away her phone and looked around.
“It will take a while for Caixia and Li Kui to arrive. I need to wait for Li Jing to come down and hand over the work. What are your next plans?” the fairy asked.
"I want to go up to the tenth floor to check my fortune." Wang Yao had already planned his next move.
He had thought of this problem on the shuttle from the East Twelfth District to the West Sixth District with Fairy Maiden and Eunuch Wei. He thought that the cause of the great calamity could be deduced through fate analysis. He had originally planned to go up to the tenth floor to modify his fate analysis, but now he was doing it together as a private matter.
At first, the fairy didn't quite understand why he went up to the tenth floor. But after Wang Yao explained the reasoning to her, the fairy was also shocked and horrified. This matter was truly terrifying to think about.
If all of this was predetermined, was this great calamity an unintentional act by the ghost master when he wrote the divination, or was there an unseen hand behind the scenes quietly pushing all of this to happen?
If such a great calamity can be subtly guided through destiny, what terrifying things in the Six Realms could be hidden within that destiny? If nothing is accidental, how terrifying must the power hidden behind the scenes be? She dared not even imagine it.
“Yes, yes, you hurry up to the tenth floor. I’ll wait here for Director Li, Caixia, and Li Kui. As soon as we’re done, we’ll go up to the tenth floor to meet you.” Fairy nodded repeatedly.
