Jiuxi's eyes were devoid of arrogance, and he said leisurely, "When I came here, I just happened to have enlightened the Three Lives Stone. Now the stone spirit is in me, so I don't have to trouble Yue Lao to go to that dirty place in the underworld again!"
Jiuxi said it lightly, and everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, convinced that Hades was not someone to be trifled with.
Because of Jiuxi's words, Yue Lao's face, which had been revived, suddenly darkened a little. Facing the cold eyes of the Queen Mother, Yue Lao said dejectedly, "Everything is just my own story! It has nothing to do with the King of Hell!"
Then Yue Lao told all about his experiences in the underworld. Cang Ling was furious and threatened to throw Yue Lao into the immortal prison in order to comfort Jiuxi.
Although the truth had already surfaced, the Queen's stubborn gaze still drifted towards Jiuxi, saying, "This matter was all caused by Yue Lao, but Hades is also at fault. I didn't know that the prestige of the immortal world was so insignificant in Hades' heart?"
Jiuxi lowered his eyelids, hiding the restless emotions in his eyes, and then said with a bit of heartache, "Your Highness, you don't know that the underworld has been really struggling to make ends meet lately. Those mortals are so unfilial that they don't even burn paper money for their relatives during the Ghost Festival. The underworld has been in disrepair for a long time. I'm afraid of being poor!"
"What does Pluto's explanation have to do with Yue Lao's visit to the underworld?"
The Queen Mother of Heaven was determined not to let Jiuxi go, and her provocative gaze kept moving over to the Immortal Lord Si De!
Jiuxi's face was as aggrieved as a bitter melon, and he grumbled darkly, "At that time, this king was inspecting the Nineteenth Level of Hell, where a seriously ill prisoner was imprisoned. And that day, it just so happened that the seriously ill prisoner tried to escape, so this king had to go to great lengths to subdue him!"
However, the Immortal Lord Si De sighed in his heart, saying that he had indeed inherited his habit, and his ability to make up stories was even better than his master's!
The Queen Mother wanted to say something, but Cang Ling impatiently walked up to her and whispered, "Mother, why are you targeting Hades so much?"
The Queen looked at Cang Ling with a loving expression and said worriedly, "Cang Ling, Hades is not suitable for you!"
That woman is too worried. If Cang Ling marries Jiuxi, she will definitely be suppressed. Cang Ling is the future Emperor of Heaven!
The voice was neither loud nor soft, but it just happened to fall into the ears of everyone in the hall. Cang Ling said nonchalantly, "Mother, you have never thought about Cang Ling!
Cang Ling likes Pluto, and Cang Ling wants to marry Pluto!"
At this moment, the fairy outside the door ran to the Queen of Heaven in a hurry and whispered, "My Queen, the Emperor of Heaven is here!"
The Queen paused for a moment, then said to Cang Ling, "Ling'er, be careful!"
Cang Ling naturally heard the fairy's words and was silent for a moment, not saying anything.
However, the face of the Immortal Lord Si De standing below the stage showed a hint of worry. He pulled Jiu Xi's sleeve and said, "Xi'er, don't be presumptuous in front of the Emperor of Heaven."
"Father, I know it."
Jiuxi, who had been suppressing her temper, looked at the Emperor of Heaven who slowly walked into the hall. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. She had thought that he would be a majestic man, but unexpectedly, the Emperor of Heaven was surrounded by a strong scholarly aura. While she was looking at the Emperor of Heaven, he was also looking at her. The Emperor of Heaven was wearing a golden tight-fitting robe, and the air he wore was filled with the fragrance of ink. His eyes were as bright as cold stars, but revealed a strong warmth.
For some reason, Jiuxi felt that the Emperor of Heaven should be easy to talk to.
