However, Qinghe was different from Qin Su. Qin Su had the protection of various Yama Kings in the Underworld, and her cultivation level was constantly improving. Her lifespan was also increasing with her cultivation level, so she could barely keep up with Wang Yao's pace.
But Qinghe betrayed her race, and she had no face to return to the demon realm. As for the immortal, god, and demon realms, she could not easily enter because she belonged to a controlled group. So she could only wander in the human realm. But she was all alone in the human realm. Who would care about her except Wang Yao?
If Wang Yao doesn't take care of her, she won't have any resources left to cultivate.
However, she was born with a stubborn nature. Although she repeatedly emphasized her age in a joking manner when talking to Wang Yao, she refused to ask Wang Yao for help. Wang Yao was so focused on the divine and demonic forging that he did not understand the meaning behind Qinghe's words.
Qinghe's cultivation level remains at the level she was at when she first met Wang Yao. Even though the demon race has a long lifespan, she has reached the point of exhaustion.
In a flash, Qinghe transformed back into her youthful appearance.
"I'm more used to it this way, and it's not because of you..." Qinghe looked at Wang Yao with a coquettish smile. "I... I just wanted to come see you, the boy who used to make fried rice with you, are you... alright now... Seeing you... I... I feel relieved..."
As she spoke, Qinghe slowly collapsed to the ground, transforming into a petite fox with silver fur.
"No...no...how could this be? How could this be?" Wang Yao cried out anxiously as he watched Qinghe's true form gradually emit a faint light and then slowly dissipate.
"When I went to the mortal realm to look for Miss Qinghe, I only found a lonely grave. I was planning to return to the immortal realm immediately to report, but I heard from the people around that the old woman who died was very strange in life. She insisted on being buried in the ground and buried herself before she died. I don't know how she did it."
"It has just come to my attention that cremation is the common practice in the human world. Miss Qinghe insists on burial because she must want to preserve a bit of her spirit in the human world. So I used my magic to summon the lonely soul from the tomb. The lonely soul indeed asked me to bring her to see Director Wang. Please do not blame me for taking it upon myself."
Tian Feng sighed as he looked at the vanished green grass.
"Qin Su! Is that Qin Su?... You... you hurry, hurry and find... find Qing He for me... Become an immortal? Wait a bit before becoming an immortal, find Qing He first..."
Wang Yao didn't listen to Tian Feng's words at all. He took out his phone, dialed a number, and started yelling at the top of his lungs.
"...What...you...you let that immortal answer the phone...I'm Wang Yao, the director of the Heavenly Women's Federation. You...you wait a moment, let Qin Su do something for me in the Underworld first...What? What do you mean by making things difficult for you? You...what the hell are you from? What's your name?"
As Wang Yao spoke, the veins on his neck bulged, and his whole body began to tremble.
Tian Feng and Cai Xia, who were on the side, had already figured out what Wang Yao meant. They knew that he wanted to find the ghost Qing He from the underworld. However, Qin Su had probably encountered the guide fairy who was going down to help her become an immortal, and Wang Yao's mind was not very clear at the moment. As a result, the two sides got into an argument.
"Director Wang, would it be convenient for me to use the phone?" Tian Feng asked from the side.
"You think you're so tough, calling your boss all you want? You think I wouldn't dare..." Wang Yao was only focused on cursing into the phone, completely ignoring what Tian Feng was saying.
Seeing that Wang Yao was losing control of his emotions, Caixia stepped forward, snatched the phone from his hand, and handed it to Tian Feng.
Wang Yao's phone was snatched away. He glared at Caixia with bloodshot eyes, looking as if he wanted to devour her.
"Calm down. Qinghe won't reincarnate in the underworld so quickly. As long as she hasn't reincarnated, we'll definitely be able to find her. It's just asking Qin Su to find Qinghe, right? If Qin Su can find her, if the Ten Kings of Hell can find her, can't you find her yourself? What's the big deal?" Caixia scolded.
“Yes…yes…yes…I…I can go find it myself…I…I…I’ll go to the underworld right now…” Upon hearing this, Wang Yao seemed to wake up from a dream. He ignored the phone Tian Feng was holding and turned to leave, but unexpectedly, Cai Xia blocked his way again.
"As a high-ranking official in the Heavenly Court, can't you be a little more shrewd? You try to do everything yourself, can you manage?" Caixia scolded him, staring at him.
"Then...then what do you suggest we do?" Wang Yao roared at Caixia, at a loss for what to do.
“This Tian Xian is Qin Su’s colleague, the Guide Immortal. Listen to what he has to say first, and then we’ll make a decision,” Cai Xia said coldly to Wang Yao.
Wang Yao then noticed Tian Feng, who was on the phone. Tian Feng quickly put down the phone and handed it to Wang Yao with a smile.
"Director Wang, please don't be offended. I've already spoken with the leadership and asked my colleague to suspend her ascension to Qin Su so she can finish the work you assigned me first," Tian Feng said to Wang Yao with a smile.
"Seriously, have the people in your organizing committee gotten used to acting like lords? They don't even listen to ministerial-level leaders. Don't they have any manners?" Caixia said discontentedly from the side.
“Oh dear! Director Caixia, you’ve misunderstood my colleague. If it were just a regular guide mission, then of course it would be my colleague’s fault. But my colleague was tasked with an ascension mission. To help Miss Qin ascend in the underworld, he had to put in a lot of effort beforehand.”
"Not only do we need to introduce a large amount of spiritual energy into the underworld, but we also need to open up a special place for ascension in the underworld. In addition, we need to build an ascension passage to prevent Miss Qin from accidentally going to other realms. We also need to set up an altar to perform the Yi Jing and Marrow Cleansing on Miss Qin to change her physique."
"My colleague has been busy in the underworld for quite some time now, and everything is finally ready to perform the Yi Jing and Marrow Cleansing for Miss Qin. But with Director Wang's order, all work has to stop. You know, many ascension materials have time limits!"
