The nun in red smiled and thanked Zhang Qilin, nodding: "Thanks to the help of Mr. Yin Yang, and thanks to the hard work of the walking master!"

Zhang Qilin said nothing more. He brought the corpse into the ancestral hall, uncovered the cloak on the corpse's head, and chanted softly: "Ring...Ring... The corpse is walking on the road to the underworld, and the people in the world of the living will respond! Ring...Ring... Don't delay when the corpse arrives, and don't break any taboos!"

Then, he turned to the nun in red and said, "The body has been delivered. The shopkeeper asked me to remind you that you'd better not forget what you promised him. Seven days later, when the sun rises three times a day, go to the Yin Yang Inn to meet up."

"Three liters a day?" The Taoist nun in red looked at Zhang Qilin in confusion, thinking to herself that she seemed to have never seen the scene of three liters a day that Zhang Qilin mentioned, and she couldn't help but feel doubtful.

Zhang Qilin did not explain, but just glanced at her calmly, then turned and walked towards the corpse. He took out two general talismans from his arms, tore off the old talisman on the corpse's forehead, replaced it with the new one drawn by Zhang Hao, and explained: "This new talisman was drawn by the shopkeeper. If nothing goes wrong, it can suppress the corpse for a hundred years. You must warn the disciples of the sect not to let anyone get close to the corpse, let alone uncover this general talisman. As for how to deal with the corpse, you are all from the Taoist sect, you should know how to deal with it, so I will not go into details. The shopkeeper has instructed that we cannot stay outside for too long. You confirm it, if there is nothing else, I will return to the inn."

The Taoist nun in red was stunned for a moment, but still nodded and walked to the corpse.

Although the corpse had a hideous and ferocious face, it was almost identical to the portrait in the ancestral hall. She couldn't believe that one day she would be able to take the ancestor back to the mountain.

After checking according to Zhang Qilin's instructions, she nodded and said, "No problem. Also, please ask the footman to go back and tell Mr. Yin Yang that I will arrive at the Yin Yang Inn on time in seven days, regardless of whether there is such a strange phenomenon or not!"

Zhang Qilin nodded silently and walked towards the gate of the Taoist temple.

……

On the other side, the entrance to the ghost town of Hades.

The ghost who walked out of the inn was now kneeling in front of the Black and White Impermanence beside the skull throne on the city wall.

On the throne, Hei Wuchang was playing with the soul-catching rope in his hand as usual, while Bai Wuchang was looking at the ghost messenger in front of him with suspicion. After a long while, he asked half-doubtingly: "You said... that person from the mortal world not only didn't kill you, but also let you go?"

The Yinchai nodded repeatedly and looked up at Bai Wuchang: "Sir, that Yin-Yang Master not only let me go, but also asked me to bring a message to you two sirs..."

Bai Wuchang frowned, feeling unhappy. She couldn't believe that the man from the mortal world had captured the ghost messenger and released him, and she couldn't believe that he had asked the ghost messenger to bring a message to her. Was this not enough humiliation, so he did it again?

She was furious, clenched her fists and asked in a cold voice, "What did he say? Also, don't call him Mr. Yin Yang, he is just a person from the Yang world! How can he be qualified to call himself Mr.?"

The ghost smiled awkwardly: "Yes, yes, you are right, sir. But that person in the mortal world said... we don't have any deep hatred, if the two sirs can give up the dark and join the light..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Wuchang glared at the underworld official and shouted, "What do you mean there is no deep hatred? He has played tricks on me and insulted my intelligence time and time again. Is this not a deep hatred? And he wants me to turn from evil to good? Forget it! Who does he think he is? How dare he say such a thing? Don't think that we in the underworld are afraid of you just because you have defeated Meng Po and the judge! The real masters of the underworld have not appeared yet!"

Listening to Bai Wuchang's roar, Hei Wuchang beside him became interested in what Yinchai said: "Hey? That ninth-rank Yinchai, you just said... He wants us to abandon the dark and join the light, there must be some benefit, right? Otherwise, why would he ask us to give up our current official positions and work for him?"

Bai Wuchang turned around and glared at Hei Wuchang: "What do you mean? You don't really want to go?"

Hei Wuchang shrugged and smiled, "Just asking casually. I've been bored these past few days, so it's okay to ask a little. Besides, he's an expert after all. Even fifth-rank Hades generals like Meng Po and the Judge have fled in panic. Maybe we can really consider him."

Ever since Zhang Hao gave Hei Wuchang a task with two evil ghosts in the Sanjiashan Basin, Hei Wuchang has always been grateful to Zhang Hao.

So even after knowing that Zhang Hao was not a real Fourth Rank Zhengqin, he did not think anything of it. But Bai Wuchang was different.

When Bai Wuchang took the dozen living souls given to her by Zhang Hao to report, she was scolded by the judge and had to send them back.

Then on the road he met Zhang Qilin, who was also pretending to be a fourth-rank official, and was fooled again.

So I don’t have a good impression of Zhang Hao.

At this time, the ghost looked at Bai Wuchang, then at Hei Wuchang, and secretly thought that Zhang Hao just asked him to steal the hearts of Bai Wuchang and Hei Wuchang.

If he can dig one up, it would be considered a success, right?
So the ghost messenger immediately put on a flattering look, crawled to the side of Hei Wuchang and said: "The Yin-Yang Master said that if you two can get along with him... he can guarantee that you two can break through the shackles and be promoted to the fifth rank, just like Judge Mengpo, and be ranked as the fifth-rank Hades General of the Underworld! And if you follow him... you two can get the Yin-Yang Origin that is exclusive to the inn!"

When Hei Wuchang heard about the promotion to the fifth rank, he was excited, not to mention Bai Wuchang who already had a good impression of Zhang Hao.

Her eyes widened as if a flash of lightning flashed through her mind: "What the hell! Promoted to the fifth rank? On par with Judge Meng Po? Ranked as a fifth-rank Hades general? This..."

Bai Wuchang blinked, and then thought that if someone else said this, she would really be moved. In fact, she was already moved just now. But now she thought that the person who said these words was a man who had fooled her several times.

In the world of the living, this kind of words would be like "Are you kidding the devil?"

So she snorted coldly and crossed her arms, saying, "Humph! You don't really think I would believe you? They say there is a first time, a second time, but not a third time. He fooled me twice, does he think I would be fooled the third time? And still hang out with him? If I hang out with him, I'll be his son!"

Hei Wuchang shook his head helplessly, glanced at Bai Wuchang, and whispered, "You guy, after tens of millions of years, you are still so outspoken! What if they really allow you to advance to the fifth rank? If there is such an opportunity, would you not go? You and I have been stagnant at the sixth rank for nearly 30 million years."

After saying that, Hei Wuchang looked at Yinchai again, with doubt in his eyes: "But what you said is indeed a little hard to believe. How can he, a person from the mortal world, upgrade our rank? This is too exaggerated, right? I dare say that even the King of Hell may not have such ability! How can he have it?"

At this moment, the ghost hesitated for a moment, but finally took out an exquisite bone china bottle from his arms.

What is hidden in this small bone china bottle is of extraordinary value. It is the origin of yin and yang given to him by Zhang Hao.

This was a treasure that he did not intend to let the Black and White Immortals see.

After all, once such a rare item is displayed, who knows if it will attract their covetousness and scramble?
However, when he thought that if he could work together with Mr. Yin Yang, such treasures would be in endless supply, he made up his mind and gritted his teeth to take out the small bottle.

The Yin Messenger gently raised the bone china bottle and said, "My Lords, Mr. Yin Yang once swore that this item could help you two improve your rank. I think it must be the 'Origin of Yin and Yang'!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hei Wuchang frowned and looked at the bone china bottle with doubt. "The origin of yin and yang?" In the underworld, this is a common hard currency.

For living people, the effect may not be so obvious, but for ghosts, it is a priceless treasure and is necessary for improving their rank.

If they want to upgrade their status, they need to keep going to the world of the living and bring back the souls of the dying.

Each time they brought one back, they could only obtain a trace of Yin and Yang essence, and this essence had been diluted, so the improvement effect was minimal. This also caused them to fail to upgrade for nearly 30 million years.

Upon hearing that the Yin Yang Inn had such a thing, a hint of greed flashed in Hei Wuchang's eyes. He took the small bottle and opened the lid.

In an instant, he felt the tremendous energy contained in the yin and yang origin in the bottle.

"Hiss..." Hei Wuchang took a deep breath and unexpectedly absorbed half of the Yin and Yang essence in the bottle.

The Yinchai felt pained when he saw this, but he gritted his teeth and endured it when he thought that if he could make this happen, he would be a great contributor to the Yin Yang Inn.

Seeing that Hei Wuchang looked intoxicated, Yinchai cleared his throat and asked, "Sir, how do you feel?"

Hei Wuchang let out a long sigh, his body as if an electric current had passed through it. He stared at the bone china bottle in shock: "Although this Yin and Yang Origin is small, its purity is too high, isn't it? It is at least a hundred times purer than what we have in the underworld! If we have this thing, it is really possible to upgrade it!"

At this time, Bai Wuchang couldn't help swallowing his saliva, snatched the small bottle from Hei Wuchang, and said half-doubtfully: "Is it so magical? You look like you have never seen it in your eight lifetimes! I don't believe that this Yang person can be so powerful and can extract a purer Yin and Yang essence than the underworld!"

After saying that, Bai Wuchang took a sip without paying any attention to the gloomy look on his face.

As the essence of yin and yang entered his body, he felt the expansion of the yin and yang power in his soul, as if a great river was flowing, nourishing his dried-up soul again. His previous injuries were also slowly getting better, and his cultivation was constantly rising.

After a long time, a warm current flowed through his body. Bai Wuchang shivered like Hei Wuchang and took a deep breath: "Awesome! How... how can there be such a pure Yin and Yang origin? This is equivalent to ten times the Yin and Yang origin of our Hades!"

Hei Wuchang nodded in agreement: "The Yin and Yang essence we usually absorb is mostly refined by ghosts, so it is inevitable that it contains murderous aura and resentment. After absorbing it, we need to eliminate distracting thoughts by ourselves, which is very troublesome. I didn't expect that this Yin and Yang Master is so powerful!"

Bai Wuchang came back to his senses, looked at the Yin and Yang essence that he had sucked out, and looked at Yincha awkwardly: "This... was sucked out by me."

The Yinchai smiled bitterly and waved his hands: "It's okay, as long as the two adults are happy. As long as the two adults take care of me, I can still go to Mr. Yinyang to ask for some money."

Bai Wuchang looked at Yinchai in surprise: "You said... this Yin Yang Master has many Yin Yang Origins? Are they all of this kind?"

Hei Wuchang glanced at Bai Wuchang with a playful smile on his face. Yincha nodded his head like pounding garlic: "Yes, he has a lot! Meng Po even took half a bowl! I saw it with my own eyes! I only have one drop. Of course, Mr. Yin Yang gave me according to my level. I am only at the ninth level now, so I can only absorb one drop of the energy of the origin of Yin and Yang..."

The ghost messenger kept talking, while Hei Wuchang and Bai Wuchang looked at each other and whispered to each other: "Half a bowl! Or Meng Po's big bowl! Isn't Meng Po going to break through?"

"How can he have so many? Anyone who can extract this kind of Yin and Yang essence must be extremely powerful, enough to rival the Lord of Hell in our underworld!"

The two looked at Yinchai. Bai Wuchang changed his usual disgusted expression and asked with a smile: "You said... Mr. Yinyang... invited us over?" "Is this... not a good idea?"

Hei Wuchang looked at Bai Wuchang speechlessly and squinted his eyes and said, "Didn't you just say that if you get involved with him, you'll be his son? Have you forgotten so quickly?"

"What are you talking about?" Bai Wuchang glanced at Hei Wuchang, rubbed his hands and said, "A real man can bend and stretch. What's the big deal about being a son? Besides, that Yin-Yang Master has played tricks on me so many times. What's wrong with me asking for some Yin-Yang essence? Don't you know? There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests!"

Hei Wuchang curled his lips and looked at the Yincha: "This Yin-Yang Master is extremely powerful. I heard that Meng Po and the judge went to the Yin-Yang Inn that day but returned empty-handed. Although the two of us are sixth-rank, we are far from the fifth-rank Hades. Why did he choose us? I know there is no free lunch in the world. Doesn't this Yin-Yang Master have anything he wants us to do?"

The Yincha looked at the Black and White Impermanence, thinking to himself that the Yin and Yang Origin was indeed a good thing. He had long known that the Yin and Yang Origin from the inn was priceless, and even Meng Po was tempted.

However, Mr. Yin Yang initially only asked him to test the attitude of the Black and White Impermanence, without specifying what he was going to do. He did not expect things to go so smoothly. Little did he know that although the Black and White Impermanence had been working in the underworld for a long time, they had not been promoted for a long time and had long been dissatisfied with their work in the underworld.

Now, an opportunity to upgrade their quality is in front of them, how can they not be tempted? Therefore, it becomes easy to turn them against the government.

The ghost smiled and said, "Mr. Yin Yang is very profound. He just wanted me to ask you two adults if you are interested in cooperating with the Yin Yang Inn. If you two can follow Mr. Yin Yang, he will give you as many Yin Yang Origins as you want. Of course, you two adults have served in the underworld for many years, so it would be difficult for you to give up..."

Bai Wuchang wanted to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

In fact, he had already made up his mind: it was just a room in the underworld. If he could be promoted to the fifth rank, how could he care? By then, he would be on equal footing with the four judges of the underworld.

But to be on the safe side, he chose to remain silent.

If the relationship with the Yin Yang Inn breaks down in the end, the Hades will not tolerate them. So the Yinchai continued.

"Mr. Yin Yang means that if you two are willing to follow him, you can continue to hold your positions in the Underworld."

"However, if the inn needs you in the future..."

Before Yinchai finished speaking, Hei Wuchang's eyes flashed and he immediately said, "If Mr. Yinyang needs anything, just say one word and we will do our best to do it properly."

"Please rest assured, Mr. Yin Yang, we two brothers are definitely not the kind of people who would take benefits and not do anything."

"only……"

"I wonder when I can meet Mr. Yin Yang again?" (End of this chapter)
