Chapter 3, Hei Wuchang

... ...

When Canglong turned around, he saw Hei Wuchang slumped on the ground, his eyes wide open and motionless. "Hei Wuchang!" Canglong called out, but Hei Wuchang seemed stunned by the scene before him and did not respond. Canglong no longer paid him any mind and charged directly towards the hungry ghost.

No! The dark and gloomy roar of Hei Wuchang expressed despair and anger, yet it did not intimidate Bai Wuchang

The White Impermanence murmured softly: "Am I not just resembling a child? I have been working in the underworld for thousands of years now"

Canglong was somewhat displeased, "I hate it when others comment on my head! My name is Xiaoliu, and I am Weixiang's pet!"

The face of the Black Wuchang was calm and indifferent, as if undisturbed by any waves. He said, "I want to go to the fifth interval."

"... ... Huang Ying." Hei Wuchang finally spoke up in a dispirited manner

Heihei nodded slightly and said, "How do you know?"

However, if I bring Ahei to my house, it must be when my mother is not around; otherwise, she will think I am crazy (talking to the air...). But when my mother is not around, I am basically not there either. It doesn't work at school either, as there are no places in our school where we can go unnoticed. Alright then, Abai, please help me out!

The dense black space resembles an abyss that seems bottomless, without end or origin

What?! The White Impermanence is even more frantic, "There is no precedent! Such a thing absolutely has no precedent!"

Hehehe... So it turns out to be the bloodline of the Water-Dispelling Palace. Indeed, it is different from that useless kid over there! The hungry ghost actually spoke, startling the Azure Dragon.

So... hey, did you hear me talking? Hong Qu finally got what she wanted, sitting beside Hei Wuchang and lecturing for two hours! However, Hei Wuchang not only didn't lift his head to look at her, but he didn't even blink... Dead people are indeed different from the living? ... Looking at his posture, it seems that since Bai Wuchang left last time, he hasn't moved at all!

Ah, don't be anxious, listen to me. The Fire Goddess took another sip of tea and said: "The problem lies with Xuanji and Huangying; no matter how you look at it, they are identical! Even we deities cannot tell them apart. Although their appearances differ after descending to the mortal realm, fate is not determined by looks, but by 'feelings.' Despite being human, they still give off the same impression!" Although their appearances differ after descending to the mortal realm, fate is not determined by looks, but by 'feelings.' Despite being human, they still give off the same impression!

The King of Hell nodded and said, "We can only rely on you to contact her using the true dragon. The spatial distortion is becoming increasingly severe, and getting any closer would be dangerous." (Dong Diweng: Although it's entrusted to you, it's still not safe...)

"That is because I thought you were someone else." Tears streamed down Hei Wuchang's face. "But you are not!"

The cold eyes of Hei Wuchang seemed to completely melt at this moment, filled with the same sorrow. He embraced the woman tightly, his voice trembling between his lips and teeth: "Xuànjī... Xuànjī, do not cry anymore, I am not worth your tears!"

Remember, there has long been no more Xuanyi in this world

Because when we passed by the Naihe Bridge, you said helplessly, if only one party remembers the agreement, it is very painful... only you remembered your agreement, right

It is said that Xuanji and Huangying are sisters. One is the Peach Blossom Fairy, and the other is the Chrysanthemum Fairy, both of whom are outstanding figures among the flower fairies. However, the Peach Blossom Fairy Xuanji has a proud personality and is not as easygoing as her sister Huangying, which is why she has very few friends in the Heavenly Court. Consequently, the flower fairies of the Heavenly Court all sided with Huangying... (Fushui Fairy: Oh, I see!) Later, both sisters became enamored with the North Star, which guards the northern heavens. However, the North Star is a difficult position! In the eastern heavens, there is the Eastern Lord; in the western heavens, there is the Buddha; in the southern heavens, there are the Four Heavenly Kings; only the northern heavens are a wild and desolate area near the edge of the Heavenly Court, where no one goes except for the mischievous shooting stars... The two sisters were commanded by the Queen Mother to plant flowers in the northern heavens to beautify the environment. The peach blossoms bloom in spring, while the chrysanthemums bloom in autumn, so it was the elder sister Xuanji who first became acquainted with the North Star...

The peach blossoms bloom in spring, while the chrysanthemums bloom in autumn, so it was the elder sister Xuanji who first became acquainted with the North Star...

The White Impermanence generously bestowed all his sympathetic glances upon him, as if he were looking at an irredeemable fool. Yet, this young man still had enough loyalty to counsel his work partner: "Just think about it, the lover of the Water-Dispersing Prince was originally so noble, yet after just one lifetime, her sacred soul became utterly unrecognizable. Moreover, the Fairy Xuanyue has undergone six lifetimes of trials in the mortal realm—" The Black Impermanence wanted to say something, but the White Impermanence gestured for him not to interrupt: "...Moreover, the Fairy Xuanyue has undergone six lifetimes of trials in the mortal realm—" The Black Impermanence wanted to say something, but the White Impermanence gestured for him not to interrupt: "... Furthermore, in this life, she is merely a hungry ghost who cannot leave the Thirteenth Layer! I know that to you, she appears as a stunning fairy, but do you know what she looks like in our eyes? Would you like to see?"

... ... Firefly Star? Its voice was indistinct, yet clear enough for Hong Qu and Hei Wuchang to hear this familiar name

The woman remained silent and indifferent, as if the person before her, Hei Wuchang, did not exist at all

The Black Wuchang continued to gaze at the increasingly silent hungry ghost and said in despair: "Her heart will never awaken again"

Heihei fell into a deep silence upon seeing the door. His expression was solemn, and beside him, Hongqu could not help but be drawn into his endless sorrow. Suddenly, a question slipped from her lips: "Since you know she will not look at you or speak to you, why do you keep coming here to torment yourself? Is this atonement or self-punishment?"

The White Impermanence immediately disdainfully threw out a series of questions. "Oh? Does your Xuanyuan Ji look at you directly? Has she spoken to you? Does she remember you?"

The Water Fairy rolled up her sleeves—on her arm coiled a flying dragon! She concentrated her mind and whispered softly, "Xiao Liu, go take a look! See if the red fungus is in danger..."

Fool! Bai Wuchang snorted, took off his glasses, and calmly remarked: "You have actually been deceived by the hungry ghosts of the Thirteenth Layer! How many times has this been already?"

"Firefly, I have had so many dreams... so terrifying. But it is truly wonderful that every time I wake up, you are by my side. It is so good..." The twitching of the hungry ghost's face made it difficult for Hong Qu to associate it with a "smile," yet the gentle light in its eyes conveyed its feelings unmistakably.

Yes, I will prepare it for you right away! The little ghost was not surprised by his request; it seems that such things have happened before.

"It's nothing." Hong Qu, while sipping on the prestigious "Hell's Green Tea" (which is part of a series that includes the "Hell's Spiritual Tea" reserved for high-ranking deities), remarked, "Fortunately, it was a close call!"

Certainly, this door, as one of the gates of hell, naturally possesses its extraordinary characteristics. For instance, it has only three steps, and below those three steps... it is empty and seemingly devoid of substance! Behind its grand entrance, it is the same; there is nothing at all! Viewed from the front, it is merely a door panel standing there; when one walks around to the back, it remains that same door panel...! It seems that upon opening the door, the visitor is still confronted with the void of darkness... Viewed from the front, it is merely a door panel standing there; when one walks around to the back, it remains that same door panel...! It seems that upon opening the door, the visitor is still confronted with the void of darkness...

The old man made a face at her back.

The woman's nostrils quivered slightly, yet her gaze suddenly became excited; her pupils transformed in an instant into a blood-red hue. A fervent breath surged in her throat, and sweat trickled down from her forehead

In fact, the King of Hell said, "Xuanji's soul has re-entered the human realm."

Cough, because it is 'exactly the same'! The Fire Thief Princess gracefully lifted her teacup and sipped the Hell Spirit Tea

Do not? It is not possible not to! It has already been written into the Book of Life and Death! Moreover, everyone is looking forward to seeing how you and Xuanyan will handle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!

Furthermore, the King of Hell coughed twice and said solemnly: "After voting, we have unanimously decided to provide you with some compensation..."

Only an ancient and dilapidated Chinese door emitted a faint glow in the profound silence. Despite its worn condition, the craftsmanship of the door was quite exquisite. The doorframe was tall and majestic, with the carved dragons and phoenixes on the eaves clearly discernible; the door panels were coated with thick vermilion paint, which, although peeling in some corners, still retained a vivid color that could reflect light; embedded in the door were a pair of large copper rings—this was the only peculiar aspect: typically, the door rings of ordinary households feature imposing tiger or beast designs, but on this door, the rings were surprisingly adorned with two grotesque little demons! Aside from this, the side doors, the varying lengths of the eaves, were designed in a conventional manner, and even the steps in front of the door were impeccably clean and precisely aligned: measuring 3 feet 3 inches in length, 1 foot in width, and 7 inches in height, made of high-quality marble.

If it were not for the countless terrifying images instilled in him by his father since childhood, Hong Qu would have fainted long ago

He unexpectedly knocked on the door calmly

Before he could finish speaking, he was struck in the face by a straight punch from Hong Qu.

Heihei Wuchang smiled. His handsome face radiated a faint glow because of this smile

Of course, of course... it's the brilliant Ji!" Hei Wuchang gasped, responding excitedly

Heibuchang closed his eyes and carefully sensed the environment

What is going on? The Water-Dispelling Princess, who was working in the Water-Dispelling Hall, suddenly felt a chill all over her body. Why do I suddenly have such an unpleasant feeling?

Thank you! But I really want to sleep a little longer... When I wake up next time, will you still be by my side?

Oh dear—Hong Qu was pleasantly surprised by this unexpected fortune, yet she said, "How embarrassing!"

"Xuanji will definitely not forget you." Hongqu did not know how she uttered such words; she was supposed to console him, not lead him into deeper fantasies. Yet she insisted, "You are definitely there, in some corner of her heart. It’s just that that corner has not yet awakened. One day, when Xuanji's heart awakens, she will remember you."

The little ghost was somewhat surprised by the appearance of the red melody, but upon learning that this little girl was the next Water Goddess, it immediately bowed down in deference—after all, the rank of the Water Goddess is above that of the Black Wuchang!

Heihei stood still, seemingly hesitant to move recklessly in the darkness. Soon, two rows of flickering lights appeared before him. He walked steadily towards the lights, as if he were very familiar with the surroundings.

"How do you plan to take responsibility?" Bai Wuchang showed no interest at all

Oh, my lord, please let me go quickly! I am in a hurry to report to the Ten Yama Kings! Hei Wuchang has lifted the seal of the Thirteen Layers, and now the entire space of the Thirteen Layers is distorted!

"Shut up! A hungry ghost dares to lecture me!" While Canglong protected Hongqu, he was entangled with the hungry ghost and surprisingly could not gain the upper hand

Yama shook his head and said firmly: "No! I have decided to revoke his position as the Earth God." Yama smiled slightly, "Let him go to the human realm to suffer the pains of reincarnation!"

A very young woman stood before him. Her eyebrows resembled delicate leaves tinged with sorrow, slightly furrowed in a display of grief; her eyes were clear and deep, as if reflecting a lake filled with countless stars, beautiful yet profoundly sad; her pale red lips were tightly pressed together, remaining silent. Tears streamed down her face, and her hair clung to her cheeks, presenting an image of boundless desolation

No... ..." Hong Qu wanted to comfort him but could not find the right words. Perhaps in the eyes of the Black Wuchang, this dying hungry ghost was still a dying beauty.

Heibei raised his head, a hint of a bitter smile curling at the corners of his mouth. "No. It is not I who remembers the promise, but Xuanyan! She always remembers our promise, always searching for me, while I married someone else... This time, she has finally forgotten me." At this point, the despair in his eyes finally pushed tears out. "This is punishment! It is the punishment given to me by heaven. Although I have given up everything to come here, none of this is enough to atone for my mistakes."

Do you know why the officials of the underworld fear the hungry ghosts and confine us in the Thirteenth Layer? It is because once the hungry ghosts are able to think, they become far stronger than the officials of the underworld! Just like you now, you are not attacking me under the pretext of justice or order, but rather because you fear that I may become powerful... am I right?

... ...

Oh? Is that so? What has been decided?" The white cat wagged its tail—Bai Wuchang helplessly glanced at Hong Qu, "Please, my current height is extremely uncoordinated with yours, don't bring your face so close! The sense of pressure is too great...

What? The White Impermanence was stunned, and the little ghost seized the opportunity to escape

"You don't have that capability!" the Azure Dragon roared, "A mere hungry ghost dares to rebel?"

The tall, slender figure of the Black Wuchang merged into the darkness, disappearing within the formation

The King of Hell remained calm and composed as he savored the tea of the underworld. "Qilun, what on earth has happened? As the head of the Hell Defense Department, you have never been this flustered before!"

The two individuals had no idea how long they had been walking in the darkness—darkness is simply darkness, and no one can measure its distance. Hong Qu only felt that she had been jogging behind Hei Wuchang for quite a while before she finally saw a strange place in the dark.

The Water Fairy appeared determined to succeed, and then turned her head to glare fiercely at the Old Tortoise. "Old Turtle, remember this!"

Xuanji! Hei Wuchang gently brushed aside the long hair soaked with tears, gazing affectionately at the sorrowful beauty, and softly said, "Look who has come! It is Huangying!"

A dark dragon faintly appeared from her arm, soaring directly into the gates of hell

A sudden cool breeze swept by, and the little ghost that had just appeared on the screen abruptly came before Hei Wuchang.

Just after the sound of knocking echoed, a screen fell down with a "whoosh" under the porch—completely mismatched with the classical-colored door. On the screen was a small demon with a sullen face and protruding fangs. It glanced at the visitor and immediately broke into a beaming smile (Goodness, it is truly unimaginable that the expression of the small demon when it smiles could be so obsequious)

The hungry ghost let out a muffled groan and slowly slid down.

Since Xuanji fell into the realm of hungry ghosts because of me, and Ahei is suffering because of this—this matter is my responsibility, " Hongqu declared with righteous indignation

He just knelt there, motionless

The office building is in complete disarray.

Ah Hei? She placed her hand on Hei Wuchang's shoulder, momentarily at a loss for how to comfort him

She stared blankly at the Azure Dragon, and the Azure Dragon smiled gently back at her

However, how strange! On the other hand, the 18th generation Water-Dispelling Princess, Weixiang, and the 6th generation Fire-Robbing Princess, Xiaying, are having tea in hell. Their tea house is a Chinese pavilion designed and built by themselves, floating in an ethereal space. The Water-Dispelling Princess is chatting with the Fire-Robbing Princess while drinking tea. "Since Hei Wuchang loves Xuanji so much, why does he still want to marry Huangying?" The Water-Dispelling Princess is quite curious about her granddaughter's previous life.

Indeed! He has been bitten by a hungry ghost again, losing a significant amount of spiritual power, and has recently been slacking off. I have lost count of how many times this has happened; he truly has a poor memory!" Bai Wuchang said leisurely while licking an ice cream, "Originally, our professional principle is: 'To provide service with a smile.' I have been implementing this principle quite well! However, due to his peculiar experiences, after arriving in the underworld, his smile is even more unappealing than his crying... Therefore, the King of Hell has allowed him to wear a mournful expression. But recently, he has become even more extreme; not only does he scare the dying to death, but even we, the dead, are finding it a bit unbearable!"

In other words, Ah Hei has been feeling quite down lately? Hong Qu and Bai Wu Chang—more precisely, the white cat that Bai Wu Chang is leaning over—sat under the sunshade, chatting while enjoying cold drinks

"Enough!" Hei Wuchang jumped up and grabbed Bai Wuchang by the collar, "I know I am a fool, and I am willing to pay the price. I have given up the dignity of the Heavenly Official to come to this dark underworld... I just want to stay as close to her as possible—can't I?"

No... in my eyes, you and Xuanyi will always be the same—regardless of your appearance. However, the first time I saw you, I knew—you must be Huangying, you have returned to this world.

Hong Qu was already so frightened that her face turned pale. After taking several deep breaths, she stammered and asked, "Ah, Ah Hei... this..."

The hungry ghost was terrifyingly hovering over Hongqu, sucking its blood, which left Canglong in shock at the scene before him

"Sir, how may I assist you?" The little ghost said with a beaming smile

The Water Fairy gently brushed her hair and calmly replied: "If there really is red yeast in it, (the Old Man of Movement whispered quietly to the side: Is there even a doubt?) then let me give it a try!"

The six male judges of the Ten Halls of Yama and the four attendants quickly gathered on the thirteenth level. The four queens of the Ten Halls of Yama were unable to attend due to their simultaneous responsibilities for the entire underworld.

"Where is Xuanyi?" she asked, pointing at the strange door floating in the air.

The Azure Dragon swung its tail, sweeping towards the hungry ghost. However, the hungry ghost nimbly dodged.

"That being said, the reality is indeed frustrating." Hong Qu felt somewhat disheartened, sighed, and lay motionless on the table

In conclusion, this is the decision made

Black Wuchang... seeing him gazing affectionately at such a monster, Hong Qu felt quite uncomfortable in her stomach—had she known she would witness such a scene, she would not have insisted on coming to this place in her physical form—she wanted to advise Black Wuchang to do something, but she did not know what to say... It seems that Bai Wuchang was not wrong: Black Wuchang's perspective on things is indeed very different from others; he sees hungry ghosts as beautiful women and perceives his own spiritual energy as blood

So you also know: her beauty is entirely a product of your psychological perception!" The White Impermanence continued coldly: "The hungry ghosts have no emotions, and reasoning with them is futile. They do not understand language, lack comprehension, and their sole purpose of existence is to eat! They do not know that they were once noble fairies, nor do they realize that they are now ugly hungry ghosts... They only know that something happened. When something appears before them, they should open their mouths, use their teeth to bite it apart, and swallow it into their stomachs!" They do not know that they were once noble fairies, nor do they realize that they are now ugly hungry ghosts... They only know that something happened. When something appears before them, they should open their mouths, use their teeth to bite it apart, and swallow it into their stomachs!

Brilliance

At this moment, the hungry ghost opened its eyes, and surprisingly, the eyeballs were no longer red

The tears of the Black Wuchang shattered against the hungry ghost's cyan skin. His deep and gentle voice seemed to convey a long-held affection: "Because I have been waiting for you to awaken."

Do you know why I know you are Huang Ying? Although it is somewhat awkward, Hei Wuchang finally spoke a complete sentence

Hong Qu and Hei Wu Chang, after a series of procedures, finally stood before Xuan Ji

The Black Wuchang strode towards the Thirteenth Gate, shaking off the recent gloom and melancholy, and replied firmly: "Yes. Perhaps she will remember you... However, you must never tell the White Wuchang about this"

"So did the firefly star get it wrong?" asked the Water Fairy, frowning.

The Fire Thief Maiden said slowly to ! '' I heard it from the previous generation of Fire Thief Maidens ! '' - It seems that this story is quite popular among the immortals ... ...

"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear..." The white cat immediately changed its expression, smiling ingratiatingly and wagging its tail repeatedly, "Miss Hongqu, I was just joking with you!"

It is very quiet around.

The White Impermanence adjusted his clothes, threw down the Black Impermanence along with a phrase, and left the office

It is not the wound that hurts, but the heart

I sincerely apologize for causing you such fright said Yan Luo while wiping his sweat and apologizing to Hong Qu

Not possible

On the other side, the temporarily confined Hei Wuchang said to the visiting Fu Shui Ji: "Please convey to Hong Qu that I hope she will get married soon! I do not want to have too much of an age difference with Xuan Ji"

"Xuanji, I am sorry! If it were not for my confusion... you should not be here! Xuanji, the most beautiful flower fairy in the sky, you should not be suffering here!"

The Black Wuchang dejectedly admitted: "I am truly afraid of his preaching... Yet every time he strikes right at the heart of the matter, without any mercy!"

The woman seemed to be completely oblivious to her surroundings, neither seeing nor hearing anything; she was merely shedding tears, her dazed gaze drifting over the shoulders of the dark figure, searching for something in the darkness

Shut up! Can't you just be the 'first person'? Hongqu sternly admonished: "Little brat, don't argue with your big sister!"

Indeed! The Fire Goddess nodded and said, "Moreover, every time it is Huang Ying who first encounters Ying Xing, and both of them feel a sense of familiarity, naturally leading to a satisfying union as husband and wife! However, every time, Xuan Ji appears after their union, and each time Ying Xing realizes that the person he truly seeks is Xuan Ji, resulting in Huang Ying being heartbroken and ultimately taking her own life... This tragic play has been performed six times, leaving us, the audience, disinterested. But every time, Xuan Ji appears after their union, and each time Ying Xing realizes that the person he truly seeks is Xuan Ji, resulting in Huang Ying being heartbroken and ultimately taking her own life... This tragic play has been performed six times, leaving us, the audience, disinterested. Until the previous life, they finally reached a resolution, which truly relieved us on their behalf.

The Canglong glanced at the silent and invisible hungry ghost and said, "Its soul is probably on its way to the Ten Halls now. We must leave quickly as well"

Soon, the red yeast gradually awakens

"Are you really going to take me to see her?" Hong Qu followed behind Hei Wuchang, running all the way.

Hong Qu patting Hei Wuchang's shoulder, feeling utterly helpless, said, "Ah Hei, come on! Look at me, am I not living quite cheerfully now? Moreover, a man should prioritize work and career above all else. Besides, your job is so unique; how can you just casually deal with it in your current state and still be worthy of those who are about to die?"

Heibuchang placed his hand on the wound on his shoulder and argued sulkily, "No, Xuànjī is not a hungry ghost, she is ... ... "

Huang Ying's gaze was vacant, as if he were completely unaware that someone was speaking to him.

Isn't this a dragon? What a big head! Hongqu, feeling a bit dazed, rubbed his neck and mumbled a few words

No! Hei Wuchang exclaimed, "Let her go! Xuanji, she will die! Let her go!"

What is going on?" Fu Shui Ji asked anxiously, "Why is there the scent of my home inside? Who is in there? Is it Qiu He or Hong Qu?"

The vibrant princess? Before Hei Wuchang had the chance to ask, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his shoulder, and in an instant, his throat was seized by the woman. Her slender arms were veined, and the joints of her fingers turned white from the force she exerted, as if she intended to crush Hei Wuchang's throat before releasing her grip. Yet her mouth remained fixed on Hei Wuchang's shoulder—where blood flowed freely—she was tightly biting into his shoulder, drawing blood from the wound she had inflicted upon herself.

The talismans on his body ignited

"Do not rest your chin on the table! It is not ladylike at all. One would never guess that you are the granddaughter of the first beauty of the underworld, Wei Xiang," Bai Wuchang said, licking his lips and criticizing without reservation.

The hungry ghost completely ignored the exclamation of the Black Wuchang. ... The bloodiness revealed a sense of satisfaction on its ugly face ...

Hong Qu took out a plate of ice cream again, looking at the cheerful white cat, she couldn't help but worry... Is it really these people who operate in hell

To those who are unaware of the truth, this door is undoubtedly just space debris floating there. Yet now, someone has appeared on the steps. It is unclear when he arrived or from where he came.

Hong Qu vigorously rubbed the white cat's head and said, "If even the time that has passed can be counted, then I have the lifespan of seven reincarnations plus that of a celestial flower fairy!"

"How could there be a 'person' inside? It's twisted like this, how could anyone get in?" The Fire Robber Maiden was troubled. (On the other side, the Water Maiden was gripping the collar of the Earth Elder: "Old man, are you mocking me?" The Earth Elder replied: "I didn't say that.")

... ... It is him again! ... ... Immediately summon the four stewards, excluding the queens, to proceed to the thirteenth floor!

He slowly opened his eyes—before him floated a strand of long hair

The White Impermanence gazed coldly through the lenses at the listless partner.

Is this not your true purpose?

Your Majesty! A young man in uniform rushed into the Hall of Yama. "Your Majesty, I sincerely apologize for disturbing your rest, but..."

Huang Ying ... ...

But he must be punished! Yan Wang's expression changed, and his voice became grave, "I have made my decision; he must be severely punished!"

The White Impermanence was stunned

He is devoted?" Bai Wuchang meticulously licked his ice cream clean, "If he were truly devoted, he wouldn't have married you six times, causing you to attempt suicide six times!"

By the time of the Fourth Generation, Huang Ying also descended to the mortal realm. However, the marriage registry of the God of Love had already been established.

Hong Qu smiled, her brows displaying a rare combination of seriousness and tenderness. "I would rather believe that it was Xuan Ji who awakened at the last moment"

Only I am the younger sister of Xuanni!" Hongqu gently patted his shoulder, sighing helplessly: "Truly, they are two troublesome individuals!

Hong Qu was clutching her stomach in regret when the hungry ghost pushed aside the Black Wuchang and approached her. The Black Wuchang was somewhat surprised, while Hong Qu was so frightened that she couldn't even move her legs. When the hungry ghost placed its two front claws on Hong Qu's shoulders and gazed at her with its bright red eyes, her nerves finally reached their limit, and she fainted. ... In that instant, the hungry ghost lowered its head, bit into her neck, and greedily drank her blood ...

"Hehe, do you know why you can't win against me?" the hungry ghost said with a smug smile, "Don't forget, I have drunk the blood of the descendants of the dragon!"

Just this one sentence has already infuriated the other party: "What?! You call me a little brat? Aren't you just in your teens yourself?!"

The White Impermanence has become even more dazed. "Are you going to the Underworld?!"

The Black Wuchang tightly embraced the woman's shoulders, tears wetting her disheveled long hair

"It is! I am here! Speak your mind!" The patience of Hong Qu was gradually worn away by his monotonous lines.

"Why... why send such a little brat of about ten years old?" He stared at the friendly hand in silence for a long time, and finally muttered in dissatisfaction.

After drinking her blood, I understood everything about this world, and I could speak and think... how wonderful! Canglong, that girl is still human, I will not let her leave the thirteenth layer! I want to consume all her blood and flesh!

Because you still have so many documents left unread! Her secretary, Bingxuan, pointed to the mountain of files piled up beside her with a stern expression

The thirteenth level of space has experienced extreme distortion, and two staff members from the security department have already been sucked in

None of them. I am just waiting for a 'miracle'

The White Impermanence, however, has long been unable to speak

It is not only they who are busy; the White Impermanence is receiving the newly appointed Black Impermanence.

The Black Wuchang gently released the hand of the hungry ghost, wiped away the tears, and took one last look at it

"Yes, yes, yes, I will look at it right away." The Water Fairy shrugged helplessly with a smile. However, once she regained her composure, she still felt very uneasy. "What exactly is going on? I always feel something in my heart..."

Is that so? Hong Qu put down the teacup and smiled: "Heihun finally waited for his 'miracle'!"

Then, how about bringing the body over as well

Hong Qu was not very familiar with the development of the situation. She looked around and saw Hei Wuchang kneeling beside the hungry ghost, weeping. Thus, she staggered over.

Ah Hei ? ! ''

After the eerie ritual concluded, the Black Wuchang gently stepped into the formation, as if afraid to awaken someone who was sleeping within it

Hong Qu pleaded: "Can we not be flexible? I am still doing well, why are you all making such a fuss!"

Yes, yes, yes, I am listening. But could you please call me 'Red Yeast'?

The old man Dongdi said: "Such a severe distortion, apart from your family, probably no one else possesses this power..."

The Water Fairy, seemingly lost in thought, remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a slow sigh: "Human beings yearn for the carefree and eternal life of immortals, yet they do not realize that immortals are not devoid of emotions. Once entangled in love, immortals suffer even more than humans—there are still those in the world who, after being moved, turn their backs on love, while immortals willingly forsake the immortality and freedom gained from a thousand years of cultivation, without hesitation!"

"What a fool! He actually hanged himself on a tree..." Hong Qu rested his chin on his hand, wearing an expression of perplexity mixed with a sense of longing. "Perhaps it is precisely because of his devotion that I am drawn to him across lifetimes, even if he causes me pain, I would still wager my next life on it."

The red yeast has already turned to stone

... ... Xuànjī !

This reason is truly interesting. Hong Qu scratched his chin in confusion and said, "Then how do you know I am Huang Ying?"

"Brother, do you know that you are being very annoying like this?" Hong Qu shouted furiously.

"From today onwards, I will be your partner, Hei Wuchang," the novice said humbly, "I believe we will have a lot in common, please guide me!" As he spoke, he extended a hand of friendship towards Bai Wuchang.

Heibuchang followed the little ghost into a classical room. A sign hung at the entrance: "Thirteenth Floor Duty Room, Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out." The room was spacious, with a peculiar formation surrounded by talismans in the center. The little ghost rummaged through a desk on the side, took out a registration book and a pen. Heibuchang expressionlessly signed his name on it. The little ghost immediately bowed and affixed a talisman to him, then took another one, set it on fire, and threw it into the formation.

Identical? The Water Fairy does not understand

In the solemn and austere Hall of Yama, a rare argument that has not been heard for a thousand years erupted.

"Lord Black Wuchang, welcome, welcome!" The door creaked open. After Black Wuchang walked in with a blank expression, the gap of the door immediately closed behind him, as if afraid that someone else would follow.

I have made my decision

You are very afraid of Ah Bai! Hong Qu glanced at Hei Wu Chang's troubled expression and finally discovered his weakness

Heibuchang raised his hand, choked with emotion and speechless. Hongqu covered her mouth to prevent her astonished gasps from disrupting their reunion across time.

The White Impermanence gazed intently into his eyes and calmly asked, "Where is the nearest place to anyone?"

Yama smiled slyly and made a "victory" gesture, "but this must not be known to anyone!"

... ...

From then on, the Black and White Impermanence transformed into Boy Scouts

The Water Fairy said curiously: "Since the marriage contract has already been established, how could the Firefly Star still..."

Bold demon! How dare you attack the descendants of the Water Pavilion! Withdraw at once! The Azure Dragon lunged at the hungry ghost, who threw down the red tune and retreated to the side. The Azure Dragon quickly coiled around the red tune, protecting her body

"Oh? If that's the case, then the two of them can..." Hong Qu's eyes lit up, and she concealed the rest of her words in her heart. She smiled and exchanged a knowing glance with King Yan, wearing an expression that suggested mutual understanding: "You are truly a good person! It seems that even King Yan is not as cold-blooded and heartless as one might think!"

"You? Hey, that's still a bit lacking." The hungry ghost's blood-red eyes emitted surprise and anger, as it looked at Black Wuchang with some resentment, murmuring: "You have never harmed me..."

What? Such a son? He has forced me to death six times... The woman he is to marry in the future is still my sister from a past life... Yama! I do not want this

Of course, it is necessary to personally guide him! Hong Qu smiled and could not think of a better solution.

Of course

Not long after, Yingxing was demoted to the mortal realm due to negligence in his duties. This was caused by his date with Xuankei, which also led to Xuankei's demotion.

One year, the Heavenly River experienced a great flood, submerging the Chrysanthemum Garden in the Northern Heavens and nearly drowning the original form of the Fairy Huang Ying, which was a chrysanthemum. Naturally, all the other unrefined chrysanthemums perished. At that time, the starling Xing, who was on patrol in the Northern Heavens, rescued the original form of Huang Ying (a chrysanthemum) from the flood, and as a result, the Fairy Huang Ying developed deep feelings for Xing.

Heibuchang maintained the same posture in protest: "For me, no matter how much time passes, Xuanyiji will always be the same!"

Just coming out of the archive room, Bai Wuchang was puzzled. He grabbed a small ghost who was rushing by and asked, "What happened?"

His words ruthlessly struck the faint hope deep within the heart of the Black Wuchang. Sitting motionless on the ground, Black Wuchang eventually covered his face in anguish, letting out a sorrowful cry from the depths of his chest.

Yet, before its arrogant laughter had faded, it could no longer laugh— a short knife in the hand of Hei Wuchang pierced through its chest

"No need to be polite, let's handle this matter formally." Yan Wang slyly winked and said, "After our discussion, we believe that all these issues were caused by Hei Wuchang, so everyone unanimously agrees: let Hei Wuchang be reincarnated as your son. How does that sound, not bad, right?"

It is Hei Wuchang

"Alright, let it be Huang Ying, as long as everyone understands it." Hong Qu saw him like this and knew that insisting on it would be futile.

What! Now even King Yama is nervous, "Who opened the seal of the Thirteen Layers?"

The red fungus fell silent, seemingly infected by his sorrow. "When crossing the Naihe Bridge, you promised to never forget each other, didn't you?"

Heihei Wuchang was taken aback—none of these questions allowed him to respond with confidence. He released his grip on Bai Wuchang's hand and fell heavily to the ground.

Heiyuchang spoke to her with indifference, continuing to say to himself: "Do you know? I have seen Huang Ying—your sister, the Chrysanthemum Fairy Huang Ying. Do you remember her? She has been reborn into the descendants of the Water-Dispelling Duke and no longer recognizes me, nor does she remember the past. She was the same in her previous six lives, but this time it is finally different! I will not marry her again! I will not let you be sad, nor will I let her be sad! Xuanyue... she was the same in her previous six lives, but this time it is finally different! I will not marry her again! I will not let you be sad, nor will I let her be sad! Xuanyue..."

Inside, it is pitch black, clearly darker than outside the door—only those who have been through hell can truly understand: "darkness" is merely a simple adjective, yet the "blackness" it describes varies. For instance, the darkness here is more obscure than that outside, undoubtedly a deeper kind found in hell.

It is truly strange, the King of Hell appeared quite perplexed, "The hungry ghost actually has memories of its past life! This is truly unheard of. Could it be due to having absorbed the blood of the dragon vein?"

Canglong finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Hongqu, wake up quickly! This child has unleashed such strong power unconsciously, distorting the Thirteenth Layer. The entire hell has been stirred up by you!" As it spoke, it licked the wound on Hongqu's body.

Hong Qu slammed his fist on the table, glaring at Bai Wuchang. "Stop wasting time! Do you still want to have ice cream?!"

I know, I know!" Bai Wuchang interrupted, saying mercilessly: "She is the Peach Blossom Fairy of the Heavenly Court—but that was seven lifetimes ago.

Of course! The smile of the Black Wuchang is permeated with tear stains, yet the voice is firm and gentle: "Next time, the time after next... forever, I will definitely be by your side"

With a green complexion resembling aquatic plants, it has sparse hair scattered on its head, but the most terrifying aspect is its eyes—those are a pair of blood-red eyes that emit a greedy light when it gazes at Hei Wuchang and Hong Qu.

Ah—! The Black Wuchang cried out in agony

"No, no, no! It's too dangerous!" The white cat desperately bared its fangs and claws, "Last time I could temporarily attach to your body, but who will do this job this time? A body without a soul is like a dead person—how can we explain it if someone finds out?"

Who knows that during their first three mortal lives, they coincidentally encountered the God of Marriage organizing records and forgot to write their fated relationship into the marriage ledger. At that time, the northern sky was adorned with blooming chrysanthemums, and the Heavenly Emperor was in high spirits. Huang Ying seized this opportunity to request to descend to the mortal realm to repay a favor, and the Heavenly Emperor happily granted permission.

This is clearly a terrifying monster

"Because you will look at me, speak to me, and be angry with me, but Xuānjī... she will never!" Hei Wúcháng buried his head in his knees in agony, his curled-up body trembling incessantly

Heihei looked at Hongqu with some surprise, smiled sadly, and said, "Thank you. Only you would say that"

It seems that there is a breeze whispering in his ears, it seems that there are flying water droplets gently scattering between his brows, it seems that something is softly and tenderly brushing against his face

Oh? You have eyes, can't you see

The Thirteen Levels of Hell

In the fifth interval, the little ghost shouted, "Safe travels!"
