"Miss Yuan, don't misunderstand. I am not the kind of person you think I am. I saw you being beaten and secretly hiding to watch the joke. My words were the result of divination. Just now, I arrived here and happened to see you devouring the Demon King, so I knew that my divination was accurate, that's why I said it like that," Yan Qing explained nervously, afraid that I wouldn't believe him. He even took out a turtle shell, which had intricate patterns and rugged textures, looking like an ancient and spiritual object.
Seeing this, I felt that Yan Qing should not be lying to me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to pass the Dark Lord, so I relaxed my tense face and asked again, "What are those four things, exactly?"
"I haven't been able to come up with a specific divination, just a general idea. And just now, when I looked at the boundary between the human realm and the underworld in the water mirror, it seems to have loosened a bit. So, Miss Yuan, for the peace between the human realm and the underworld, I ask you not to swallow the Ghost King." Romance spoke to me with a sincere and earnest tone.
"Don't worry, for your sake, even if I have to swallow myself, I won't swallow the Ghost King." Upon seeing this, I immediately patted my chest and assured her.
"I hope so, but I'm afraid someone or some ghost might come up with a scheme to deceive you. Sigh, your body is so lovable yet so detestable," Romance complained with an impatient expression.
"It's lovable to you, King of the Underworld, and detestable to you, King of the Underworld. By the way, King of the Underworld is not an adult. If the boundary between the human realm and the underworld is really opened, is there any way to make amends?" Unable to stand Romance's nagging, I quickly changed the subject.
"There is a way, but we may not be able to ask for guidance from the underworld. If that figure from the underworld intervenes, everything can be resolved. It's a pity that his temperament is so unpredictable, making it difficult to figure out." There was a helpless expression on Yanqing's face.
"Who is it? Could it be Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva? I heard Shen Chen mention before that there is a powerful figure in the underworld who is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, is that right?" I had a feeling it was my master, so I blurted it out without thinking. But after asking, I was afraid of raising Yanqing's suspicions, so I immediately explained why I made that guess.
"Yes, it's him. I hope he will consider the welfare of all living beings and allow us to invite him to the incense table." Yanqing didn't ask me why I knew about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Instead, he wore a worried expression on his face, as if he was deeply concerned for the welfare of all living beings. It made me feel a bit suspicious.
"The King of the Underworld is not an adult. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva should be able to be invited without your incense table. With such a big event happening in both the human and underworld realms, I think he should be aware and appear voluntarily." Although I felt Yanqing's expression was too fake, I still comforted him kindly.
I'm not sure either. Can the old master really consider the world's people? Take me for example, I've been in danger several times, but he never showed up. Before, I only guessed that it was the master's intention for the two ghosts to pass on Gui Li to me, but that's just a guess.
"I hope it's as Miss Yuan said. It's just that this Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva acts solely on mood. We dare not speculate." Yanqing said this, frowning even deeper. This seems to be Hades' true nature, right? Looking at Yanqing, who seems so serious, I thought so.
"Ah! Is he really that arrogant? Um, well, King of the Underworld is not an adult. Ah, don't worry, as the saying goes, 'When the car reaches the mountain, there will be a way.' I believe epoch will find a solution. I will also be extra careful, and I won't swallow the last Ghost king flower again. Even if she swallows me, I won't swallow her." I assured, patting my chest. But in my heart, I thought, if she dares to swallow me, I can scatter her soul. Why should I swallow her? That Ghost King is not something delicious that I want to swallow so badly.
Seeing my assurance, Yanqing's furrowed brows relaxed a bit. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she asked me, "Miss Yuan, how did the Demon Lord aura appear here just now? Did you see the Demon Lord?"
"Demon Lord didn't see it, but I did see the magic mirror. I just found the memories of Five years ago in the magic mirror!" When Yanqing asked me this, I was carrying Mrs. Shen and planning to put her in the room, so I casually said as I walked.
"No, a magic mirror wouldn't leave such a strong aura. It must be Demon Lord who came. Maybe he's hiding in the dark, and you didn't see him," Yanqing said thoughtfully.
"Maybe, because later the magic mirror in the hands of the Demon King disappeared into thin air, I think the demon king should be hiding nearby, directly collecting the magic." I recalled the situation at that time and said, "At this time, Yanqing also took Mrs. Shen from my hand. It seems that he has a keen eye and knows how to do this kind of physical work, which should be done by a boy."
"Sure enough, it seems that the Demon Lord is counting on the fact that the Dark Lord has not recovered his true body, and wants to take advantage of the situation. Alas! If the underworld and the human world mix, the human world will become like hell. Let's go, let's put Mrs. Shen in the room to rest first, and then hurry to find the Dark Lord so we can discuss a strategy." Yanqing became anxious as soon as I finished speaking, urging me to hurry up and find Shen Chen to discuss.
Knowing the seriousness of the situation, without saying a word, I hastened my pace and placed Mrs. Shen in the nearest room. Then I called a nearby servant to watch over her. However, this servant didn't seem afraid at all, behaving as usual, as if unaware of what had just happened. They only looked surprised at Mrs. Shen's fainting and quickly called the Shen Family's family doctor.
On the surface, everything seemed normal, but upon closer thought, it was abnormal. How could they remain calm after witnessing the battle between the ghost king and the human beings? Even if they weren't trembling in fear, there should have been a hint of panic in their eyes. Looking at the other servants, it seemed they were all the same as the first one, showing no signs of fear, only a sense of urgency when the mistress fainted.
Did I and the Demon King just fight so fiercely that these people couldn't see from a distance? It's unlikely. We are very close, standing at the door of this room, we can see the place where we fought. Or are these people actually sorcerers, raised by the Shen Family, and they are used to seeing such things.
But that's not right either. If they are sorcerers, why didn't they come to help when Mrs. Shen and I were in danger? You know, the servants hired by the Shen Family are all paid a lot of money, especially for this old mansion. This is too unusual. So I pulled Romance, who had just put Mrs. Shen on the bed, and asked, "King of the Underworld is not an adult, why do their expressions look wrong? Why don't they look shocked and scared? Isn't this very unusual?"
"There's nothing wrong. They probably didn't see that Mrs. Shen was possessed by the Ghost King," Yanqing glanced at the servants and replied confidently.
"It's impossible. We were so close to where the fight happened, anyone with eyes could have seen it. I think you're wrong," I also confidently retorted.
"That's what I'm saying. Could it be that they were all possessed by ghosts just now? But I can assure you, no, with This King's eyes, I can prove that they are human, absolutely no problem," Yanqing thought I wanted to say that these people were also possessed by ghosts, so I said firmly again.
"Then it can't be that the Demon Lord cast a barrier, isolating that place from the external," I gave Yanqing a disdainful look and snorted.
"Since you already know, why are you asking me? Are you just bored and want to tell a cold joke to This King?" she said with a smile that seemed like a joke but wasn't.
"No, I guessed it was a barrier because you seemed so sure that those people were fine. That's how it was described in the books I've read before. I was just guessing earlier, but I didn't expect to be right. Wow, I'm really amazing, right?" I said with a bit of pride.
"Yes, you're amazing, but if you can guess that it's Demon Lord's barrier, you'll be even more amazing. Just now, This King felt that Demon Lord's aura was so heavy, it turns out to be like this," Romance said, looking as if she had suddenly realized something.
Glancing at Romance, I hurriedly asked, "King of the Underworld is not an adult. Since your nose is as sensitive as a dog's, why don't you figure out where Demon Lord is right now? It's more proper for us to find Demon Lord first. Otherwise, he's in the dark and we're in the light, which puts us at a disadvantage and makes us vulnerable."
"Yes, that makes sense. Let This King do a divination first to get a general idea of the direction. But the Demon Lord is very powerful. Even if we join forces, we are no match for him. What can we do if we meet him? We can't do anything to him," Yanqing first felt happy, then worried.
"We may not be able to do anything to him, and we may not be his match, but at least we will know what he looks like, or what he can transform into. We will have a better understanding, and when we invite Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, we can explain the situation in more detail, so that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva can come up with a more thorough plan," I proposed after some thought.
"Miss Yuan, you've become smarter after spending time with Dark Lord. Alright, let's do as you say. By the way, This King has already performed divination three times today, and if he does it again, it won't be allowed. Let Miss Yuan take over for me." Just as Yan Qing was about to divination, he suddenly stopped and handed the turtle shell to me, saying impatiently.
"Damn, seriously? Let me divination? I don't have the technical expertise for this kind of thing. If I did, I would have already rescued Mrs. Shen," I thought to myself in silence. However, the ancient and interesting look of the shell intrigued me, so I took it and played with it in my hands. At the same time, I wanted to experience the feeling of being a master, so I smiled and said, "Alright, I'll give it a try."
