"What time does the store here close" I suddenly blurted out.Auntie Lin stared at me in surprise: "How did you know this I haven't told you yet!"Lin Yanqin hurriedly smoothed things over, "Auntie, she...Light smoke drifted faintly, making the entire hall hazy.

I've experienced this feeling too many times. The boundary between the yin and yang always makes me feel like there's a layer of frosted glass, blurring everything.

A biting wind swirled over the blue-tiled ground, a chill crawling up his legs.

Yin and yang are originally one entity, two births. Taiji double fish is also black within white, and white within black.

The same scene, after opening the boundary between Yin and Yang, immediately transformed into a different sight.

This is the way, only those who cross Yin and Yang and are related to the underworld can open it.

Is the street in front of the government office large

I looked at Jiang Qiyun, he extended his hand to me, and said lightly, "Good."

Yue girl stole a glance at me, her expression cautious.

What Afraid I'll report you I already have.

Even if it was just acting, you shouldn't use a child as part of the act. If Younan really got hurt, I wouldn't even care about spies anymore, I'd save her first and worry about everything else later.

Before I got pregnant, I was browsing mommy forums and saw one mom say that her mother-in-law dropped the baby when she was holding it, causing an injury. She said in that moment she almost wanted to rip apart her mother-in-law, completely without reason.

I thought it was an exaggeration at the time, but when I actually became a mother, I realized it wasn't.

There's also a dad joke saying that to see a woman's true fighting power, you just need to hit her child in front of her. She'll beat you so badly you'll question your life.

Perhaps Ayue already felt the arrival of the Black and White Impermanence, so she dared to make such a move. Knowing that the Black and White Impermanence could wave their hand and save the child, I still feel a little resentful.

Jiang Qiyun pulled me to the carriage and whispered, "Don't daydream, what are you thinking about"

"Nothing... ah—!" My eyes fell on the horse pulling the carriage, and I jumped in fright.

That were two skeletons, clad in leather!

Can this actually run!

"Come on." He scooped me up and into the carriage, taking a seat beneath the awning. In a low voice, he said, "Don't make a fuss. You are the wife of the Hades God after all."

Well, it's my first time seeing this, shouldn't I be surprised

"Next time we go to Qinghu Changle Realm, I'll take you for a ride in a flying carriage." He suddenly smiled and pinched my chin. "That way you won't be so surprised, and others won't think you're an imposter."

I'd say I've walked through the three realms... ahem, haven't been to the nine heavens yet... A person who has seen a lot and knows a lot. My brother can't compare to me now. Although I haven't ridden a flying carriage, I have ridden a flying gourd!

A-Yue, along with other Yin Lords leading the ghost soldiers and specters, cleared the way. The skeletal horses stepped forward in a haze of black mist, and soon they arrived at a place resembling the human world. On both sides were small wooden houses, and a large archway divided the inner and outer streets.

Behind the archway, a crowd gathered around the old Wangye on the palanquin in the middle.

It really is "Old" Lord Wang.

His hair, beard, and eyebrows were all white. He was withered and frail, with no strength left in him, looking as if his time was up.

This was truly beyond our expectations. Even Jiang Qiyun's eyes flashed with a hint of disbelief.

"Welcome, Your Majesty the Emperor, welcome, Lady Xiaonü." He rose to greet them with the help of two attendants.

"Forget the formalities... Lord Fuming, it seems your health isn't well" Jiang Qiyun waved his sleeve robe and coldly eyed the old king.

This doesn't look like an act. His eyes are cloudy and vacant, his breath unsteady when he speaks. Even I, with my meager cultivation, can tell that his inner energy is chaotic.

"The atmosphere in the capital city is unusually chaotic, with too much powerful energy, which is detrimental to cultivation. My subordinate chose...to...a secluded courtyard in an extremely yin place for meditation and detachment, but was struck back by evil thoughts..."

“Time is running out. With Your Majesty’s visit this time, I can report everything properly, receive rewards and punishments, and then retire gracefully…”

Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes slightly, the corner of his mouth twitching.

Others can't see it, but I'm so close to him, I can tell he's sneering.

This Old Master, upon seeing them, immediately burst into tears, claiming weakness and demanding both praise for his achievements and punishment for his shortcomings. He further pleaded for leniency and requested to retire from his position.

With all the words spoken, what could Jiang Qiyun say

This old geezer appears compliant on the surface, but deep down, he's as slippery as an eel.

“Alright, though the Underworld deities are under my command, I'm merely acting on their behalf. Rewards and punishments await the final decree from the Three Emperors: Ziwei, Qinghua, and Changsheng. You needn't rush to abdicate, Old King. We must persevere until heaven's mandate arrives.”

Jiang Qiyun flung the pot, and he wasn't just flinging it at one Great Venerable God. How could Old Wangye dare to speak up

He is just a mid-level official, he can't even reach the high gods in the ninth heaven. This means he should stay put and not think about resigning to cover up what he has done.

Jiang Qiyun said coldly, “I think you know why I’m here. Do you plan to explain this on this street, or find a more suitable place to give a detailed explanation”

Old Wangye's turbid eyes twitched, and he trembled, saying: "It is my subordinate who has been disrespectful. Seeing Your Majesty the Emperor accompanied by the little Empress, this is the first time in the world, a bit excited, disrespectful, disrespectful..."

He signaled for our carriage to continue, and his palanquin followed suit.

As our carriage passed before him, Jiang Qiyun gave a faint smile and said, “Old King, you are the only one in the world, naturally I must give you face.”

I'm a little taken aback, this is clearly sarcasm.

"Don't you care You want to make him so anxious he rips his face apart" I whispered in Jiang Qiyun's ear.

He turned his head slightly, his thin lips brushing against my mouth in a light touch—

"Yes, it seems he's ready..."

What are you doing in broad daylight!

A thin gray mist hung in the air, shrouding the entire street in an eerie silence. It felt like a graveyard, even with so many people following behind us. We walked silently and solemnly, the stillness sending chills down my spine.

How come it doesn't feel like walking into the City God's Temple, but more like entering a tomb

The Underworld is a place of deathly silence, yet there is a unique chill mixed with an eerie sense of auspiciousness.

Here, there is only a cold and gloomy atmosphere, like walking on the bluestone path leading to the ghost market's western city.

The two small wooden buildings on either side were dark, their windows like blank eyes staring at us.

I am a little nervous, fortunately I'm not alone.

Before we reached the magistrate's office, Jiang Qiyun first got out of the carriage and scooped me up in his arms, whispering, "If we get separated later, stick close to Amy. She knows what to do."

"I don't trust her, can I summon the seven gods and eight deities" I whispered.

Jiang Qiyun slightly frowned, and I immediately understood—the Seven Lords and Eight Lords must have other tasks.

"Shh... Let's go see how he reports. If he wants to abdicate, he has to settle his accounts first!"urage to tidy myself up, Senior Sister Five sat beside me and watched me eat. I couldn't help but ask, "Why are you drinking soup so early in the morning Just give me a bowl of soy milk...""No way~~"...
