I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"Once the Barefoot Immortal discovers you've descended to the mortal realm again, the fact that you didn't drink the potion of forgetfulness will be exposed; at that time, not only will you be punished, but your sisters will also be implicated," Qin Yao said solemnly.

Azi: "..."

She understood this principle perfectly well.

The time difference between the celestial and mortal realms is too severe; for every day she spends in heaven, Dong Lang has to wait a year.

As for Dong Lang coming to heaven to meet her in secret...

Because she knew for certain that he had been sent by her adoptive father, and that her adoptive father was definitely nearby, she didn't even dare to be intimate with him!

Seeing the unwilling look on her face, Qin Yao suddenly realized the same thing and pondered, "Do you feel that you two are a little restrained with me around?"

Azi blushed slightly: "Godfather, this is not your problem, it is my own problem."

Qin Yao waved his hand: "Whose problem is it? What's important is that the problem does exist."

Azi let out a soft breath and said, "I was too greedy. I should be content with being able to meet with Dong Lang often."

Qin Yao pondered and said, "How about this, after I send Dong Yong to your side, I will leave immediately. You will find a way to send him back to the human world."

Azi asked with a face full of surprise, "Really? Is it possible?"

"Yes, but it will be much more dangerous; so you must be extremely careful when you take him back," Qin Yao warned.

He didn't really care whether Azi and Dong Yong would be seen again; in fact, if they were, it would be beneficial to his plan to lift the seal...

Azi nodded deeply and bowed respectfully: "Thank you, godfather."

Qin Yao waved his hand: "On the night of the full moon, I will send him to your side."

Azi's eyes immediately filled with anticipation as she stood up and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Godfather..."

Qin Yao smiled and shook his head, then cast a spell to put away the Mystic Mirror.

"Where is Azi?"

Inside the Princess's residence, Ah Hong led her sisters into the main hall and asked Ah Huang, who had come to greet them.

"She's gone back to her room." Ah Huang said hesitantly, "It seems she has many secrets that we don't know."

Ah Hong chuckled: "That's not surprising. Every immortal has their own secrets."

Ah Huang nodded, then asked, "How's it going on your end?"

“That’s strange,” said Green.

Ah Huang looked curious: "What's so strange?"

"My mother drank the potion of forgetfulness, but she didn't react at all," A-Lu said, spreading her hands.

Ah Huang: "???"

Meanwhile, time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, as dusk fell, Dong Yong eagerly stepped out of his room, his eyes fixed on the bright moon. Confirming it was a full moon, he hastily retrieved a peach wood talisman from his robes and repeatedly called out, "Father, Father..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a portal to another dimension, sparkling with golden flames, suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

Qin Yao stepped out from the door and, with a flick of his sleeve, opened an identical door in front of Dong Yong.

However, this door leads to Azi's boudoir...

"Godfather, please go first," Dong Yong said, exhaling softly and bowing.

"I won't be going with you this time," Qin Yao said, waving his hand.

Dong Yong was taken aback: "Then how do I come back?"

“Azi will find a way to bring you back.” At this point, Qin Yao quickly added, “That’s what Azi wants.”

Dong Yong: "..."

"Don't stand there in a daze, the night is too short, go on." Qin Yao urged with a smile.

Dong Yong seemed to wake from a dream, thanked her repeatedly, and then strode into A Zi's boudoir.

With a flick of his sleeve, Qin Yao dispelled the dimensional gate before him. He silently thought to himself: The time is almost right. In a while, I will ask A Zi to help seal the purple shackles within my body.

As for now, it's time to find a spy in Heaven. The peach wood talisman on Ah Lan only has limitations because it can only illuminate things around her...

fairyland.

forbidden.

The disheveled-looking jinx sat at the front door, gazing at the sunset on the horizon, sighing incessantly.

He was unwilling to accept the status quo and was willing to humble himself, even kneel down and act like a dog, just to obtain the status of an immortal, so that he would no longer have to sweep everywhere with this broken broom, and no longer have to suffer people's scorn and disdain.

But something went wrong, and no one in power was willing to give him a chance to wag his tail. As a result, even if he wanted to work hard, he didn't know where to direct his efforts. He could only slack off, wallow in self-pity, and feel dejected.

"You've been lamenting here for over half an hour. What on earth is causing you such distress?"

Suddenly, a voice came from inside the forbidden area, precisely penetrating his ears.

"Who? Who's inside?"

The jinx suddenly stood up, gripping the broom handle tightly with both hands, and asked with a wary expression.

"You'll understand once you come in," Qin Yao said calmly, sitting cross-legged in front of a stone wall inside the forbidden area.

The jinx swallowed hard, and said nervously, "I won't go in. What if you want to harm me?"

"A coward like a mouse will never amount to anything," Qin Yao mocked.

These eight words directly hit the jinx's sore spot, causing his face to contort in a grimace. Finally, he gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and plunged headlong into the cave that no immortals or gods were allowed to set foot in!

Standing before the cliff face, Qin Yao asked with a smile, "Weren't you afraid to come in?"

"A barefoot man has nothing to fear from a man wearing shoes. I have nothing but my worthless life, so why should I be afraid of you?" The jinx looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the man had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and a dignified appearance. He did not look like an evil spirit, so he felt a little relieved.

Qin Yao smiled slightly: "There's no need to belittle yourself. No matter how bad a person is, they won't be without any merits."

The jinx was slightly intrigued and asked, "Then what are my strengths?"

"You can appear anywhere in the Heavenly Court without being suspected. Isn't that an advantage?" Qin Yao retorted.

The jinx sighed, "What kind of advantage is that? I'm just completely ignored."

Qin Yao smiled and said, "You just haven't met a wise ruler yet."

“A wise ruler…”

The jinx's gaze sharpened as he stared intently at Qin Yao and asked, "By the way, who are you, and why are you in this forbidden area?"

"Do you know why this place is a forbidden area?" Qin Yao asked instead of answering.

"Why?" asked the jinx, looking curious.

"Because I was once imprisoned here, the Jade Emperor was afraid that someone might rescue me by chance, so he simply designated this place as a forbidden area," Qin Yao explained.

The jinx's heart skipped a beat: "Who exactly are you?"

"Have you ever heard of... the Shadow King?" Qin Yao smiled slightly.

The jinx shook his head: "Never."

Qin Yao said quietly, "In the primordial era, heaven and earth gave birth to three innate beings: the eldest senior brother, the second senior sister, and the youngest junior brother."

Later, the junior brother, ambitious and determined to control the Three Realms, incurred the displeasure of the eldest brother. The eldest brother then sowed discord between the second senior sister and the junior brother, ultimately joining forces with the second senior sister to completely seal the junior brother away.

"So what does this have to do with the Shadow King?" asked the Broom Star.

Qin Yao calmly said, "After the great battle, the eldest brother was elected as the Jade Emperor, the second sister became the Queen Mother, and the sealed junior brother was called the Yin Shi King."

The jinx suddenly widened his eyes: "You're lying to me, aren't you?"

If what the other party said is true, then this person's background is incredibly powerful.

"Is there anything about you that I could lie about?" Qin Yao asked with a smile.

Broom Star: "..."

"What I want to say is that I've been through something like this and I haven't complained. You've just not become successful yet, and you haven't encountered any disasters, so what's there to complain about?" Qin Yao spoke again.

The jinx seemed to wake from a dream: "So you're unsealed now?"

"Yes." Qin Yao nodded.

The jinx trembled slightly: "Aren't you very powerful?"

"Above and below heaven and earth, apart from the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, there should be no one who can rival me," Qin Yao replied.

The jinx quietly tightened his grip on the broom: "Could you take me as your disciple and teach me supernatural powers? As long as you can help me become an immortal, I am willing to serve you like a dog!"

Qin Yao smiled and asked, "Why should I believe you?"

After a moment of silence, the jinx hardened his heart, forcefully extracted a part of his soul and spirit, knelt down and kowtowed: "I am willing to offer up my soul and spirit, only asking that Your Majesty help me change my fate!"

Qin Yao raised his hand and absorbed the soul and spirit, then bestowed upon them a scripture: "This is the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends, consider it my gift to you."

The jinx quickly clutched the scriptures to his hands and kowtowed heavily, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty... no, thank you, Master!!!"

Qin Yao chuckled, took out a communicator, and handed it to him in mid-air: "Starting today, you will help your master monitor the activities of the Heavenly Court and, incidentally, search for the Jade Emperor's whereabouts. If there is anything important, just inject your magic power into this communicator and you can contact me."

Broom Star gripped the communicator tightly, his body trembling with excitement: "Master, are we going to rebel?"

"What rebellion? Rebellion is when the inferiors overthrow their superiors. Whether it's the Jade Emperor or the Queen Mother, they are all of equal rank to me. Why would I need to rebel against them?" Qin Yao shook his head and said.

Broom Star scratched his head: "Then what should we do..."

"We demand justice!"

Qin Yao said decisively, "Back then, when I wanted to unify the Three Realms, he called me cruel and joined forces with my senior sister to suppress me. In the end, he himself became the supreme ruler of the Three Realms. Isn't that a ridiculous thing?"

Suddenly realizing what was happening, the jinx couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation.

If the cheap master in front of me could replace the Jade Emperor, then as his first disciple, my rank would be far above that of an immortal.

Just imagining the way the immortals groveled before him gave him an immediate, intense orgasm...

After an unknown amount of time, when the jinx finally came to his senses, he found that his master was no longer there. If he hadn't been holding the Seventy-Two Transformations manual in his hand, he probably would have thought that the whole experience was just a hallucination!

"Barefoot Immortal, I wanted to be your dog but you refused. You'll regret it later." Forcibly suppressing his agitation, the Broom Star said through gritted teeth.

Not long after.

Inside the princess's boudoir at the princess's residence.

Just as Azi was sewing a garment with a smile on her face, a voice suddenly reached her ears: "Azi, can you do me a favor?"

Azi suddenly raised her head and placed the needle and thread on the table: "Father, what can I do for you?"

Qin Yao appeared before her in an instant, a twelve-petaled karmic fire lotus above his head, and said sincerely, "Use all your immortal energy to help me overcome this tribulation."

Azi paused slightly, then nodded and said, "I do!"

"Let's get started without delay."

Qin Yao cast a spell to seal the entire room and sat cross-legged in the void.

Azi asked, "What should I do next?"

"It's very simple."

Qin Yao replied with a smile: "With all my heart and without reservation, I will pour the immortal energy within you into the lotus platform above my head!"

This is the necessary condition for using the power of cause and effect to seal the shackles.

Only a single-minded and unreserved intention can be seen as the key to actively intervene in cause and effect, and only then can the causal law of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus be successfully driven.

Otherwise, even if Qin Yao drained a fairy's immortal energy, he wouldn't be able to activate the power of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, let alone form a causal seal.

This is also the main reason why he couldn't use the laws of the seven emotions and six desires to first manipulate the seven fairies and then have them help him seal the shackles.

To put it bluntly, the seven fairies who were being manipulated had no original will and therefore could not activate the law of cause and effect!
"I understand."

Azi nodded heavily, then formed a hand seal, channeled her immortal energy, and suddenly pointed towards Qin Yao's location.

In an instant, a purple celestial aura flew out from her fingertips like a pillar of light and merged into the Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

Qin Yao then used the Karmic Fire Red Lotus to forge purple immortal energy, and with A Zi's complete trust, everything progressed smoothly.

Finally, when A Zi's immortal energy was completely exhausted, he created the second shackle seal, instantly sealing the purple shackles within his body!

At the same time.

Inside the Tushita Palace.

The large ladle that had been hovering above the divine array suddenly crashed down, the crisp sound startling Laozi, who was refining elixirs, awakening him abruptly, his expression changing drastically.

"Master, why did this ladle fall down?" Water and Fire Boy asked in confusion in front of the alchemy furnace.

Laozi waved his hand, and his body instantly transformed into a beam of white light, arriving at the Lingxiao Palace. He then greeted the Empress with a greeting: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Inside the Lingxiao Palace, the Queen Mother, who was discussing politics with the gods, slowly rose and said in a deep voice, "Laojun, please come in."

Without the slightest hesitation, or even expressing gratitude, Laozi strode in and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. The compass has once again misaligned."

As soon as he finished speaking, the immortals were in an uproar.

In their memory, the compass has appeared twice: once when Erlang Shen split the mountain to save his mother, and once when Sun Wukong wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace.

Both of these events were calamities for the Heavenly Court, and both nearly led to a change of dynasty.

Now that the compass has been placed for the third time, could it be that some extraordinary person has emerged in the world?
At the very front, the Barefoot Immortal took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said, "Your Majesty, please grant this humble immortal the power to oversee the Three Realms."

The Queen Mother's face was solemn: "Granted! Great Immortal, the old story of Erlang Shen and the Great Sage Equaling Heaven must never be repeated."

The Barefoot Immortal solemnly promised: "Your subject will do everything in his power to find that unknown demon as soon as possible and eliminate the hidden danger in its infancy!"

half an hour.

After the meeting.

The jinx who had been sweeping outside the Lingxiao Palace the whole time quickly returned to his residence, took out a communicator from his pocket with a serious expression, and reported the entire content of the grand court assembly to his master.

Inside the princess's boudoir at the princess's residence.

Qin Yao listened silently to the whole process and praised, "Well done, keep up the good work, and don't miss any important information."

"Yes, Master!" the jinx replied with high spirits.

Qin Yao chuckled, casually putting away the communicator, and looked up at the Seventh Princess before him:

"Did you all hear that? Behave yourself for a while from now on, lest you get caught red-handed by the Barefoot Immortal. Then no one can save you..." (End of Chapter)
