I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

That night.

The night was deep, and the moonlight was cold and clear.

Qin Yao led Ah Hong quietly into a warehouse, looking at the warehouse full of silk threads and said, "The gold and silver treasures in the treasury are all gone, yet Manager Wang can still buy up all the silk threads within a hundred miles. His strength far exceeds my expectations."

Ah Hong responded, "Even if he has a strong foundation, losing this batch of silk threads will probably severely damage his health, right?"

With a flick of his sleeve, Qin Yao once again tucked the silk thread and the frame into his sleeve, smiling and nodding: "Are you staying to wait for Manager Wang this time?"

"No, no," Ah Hong hurriedly said, "I'm afraid my stomach will hurt from laughing so much."

Qin Yao nodded, raised his hand to form a seal, and conjured a dimensional gate that led directly to the three-courtyard house: "Let's go."

Ah Hong stared at the doorway in astonishment, and even after passing through it and watching the circular light door automatically dissipate, her mind was still reeling.

To her, this kind of magic seemed far more advanced than the "Hidden Universe in the Sleeve" technique, to the point that it was something she had never seen or heard of before.

Qin Yao raised his hand and waved it in front of her, teasingly saying, "Your body is here, but where is your soul?"

Ah Hong suddenly realized what was happening and said with sparkling eyes, "I want to learn this!"

If she could master this supernatural power, she wouldn't be afraid of the Heavenly Palace suddenly checking on her.

Qin Yao shook his head: "You can't learn this. It's not that I don't want to teach you, nor is it because I have any unspeakable difficulties. It's simply because you don't major in the Great Dao of Spacetime, and you don't have the laws of spacetime within your body."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Ah Hong's eyes, and she sighed, "What a pity."

"It's alright. As long as you're with me, what I know is the same as what you know," Qin Yao reassured him.

Ah Hong's heart trembled slightly.

together?
Which one are together?
"Could you do me a favor?"

Seeing the other person's stunned expression, Qin Yao changed the subject and asked sincerely.

Ah Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course! Just tell me what you need me to do, and I won't hesitate to do anything I can!"

Qin Yao smiled and said, "It's very simple. Just do your best, sincerely and without reservation, to help me get rid of a stubborn ailment in my body."

"A chronic illness?" Ah Hong asked curiously, "What chronic illness?"

“An evil artifact!” Qin Yao said seriously.

"What should I do?" Sensing his reluctance to elaborate, Ah Hong asked directly.

Qin Yao quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and with a wave of his sleeve, he set up a barrier in the courtyard. He then sat cross-legged, with a twelve-petaled karmic fire lotus above his head.

"Concentrate fully and wholeheartedly, pour the immortal energy within your body into this red lotus. Do not stop unless I tell you to."

Ah Hong nodded solemnly, raised her hand to form a hand seal, and released a red beam of light that connected directly to the red lotus.

Sensing her proactive intervention in cause and effect, the Red Lotus began to absorb this power, transforming it into streams of red immortal mist that surged into the Yin Erosion King's sea of ​​consciousness.

Qin Yao's divine soul continuously collected the immortal mist, condensing and compressing it into a red, semi-transparent bubble.

Then, using the immortal mist as energy, he carved layers of arrays around the bubble until he sensed that Ah Hong's immortal energy was about to be exhausted and saw that the magic power she was outputting had become as thin as a thread. Only then did he throw the bubble toward the red shackles.

Silently, the red bubble enveloped the red shackles.

At the same time, the compass in the Tushita Palace of the Heavenly Realm returned to its original position, and a deafening thunderclap resounded simultaneously in both the Heavenly and Human Realms.

Inside the third courtyard, Ah Hong was so frightened by the thunder that her whole body trembled, and the transmission of her immortal energy was almost interrupted. She broke out in a cold sweat.

What she feared was not the thunder, but that she herself had been unable to help Qin Yao.

"Okay."

A moment later, just as she was gritting her teeth and persevering, even considering burning her essence blood to maintain the transmission of immortal energy, a voice suddenly rang in her ears.

"really?"

"Of course it's true," Qin Yao said with a smile.

Ah Hong then stopped the magic transmission and silently lowered her arm: "Has that stubborn ailment been cured?"

"It's removed. Thank you for helping me," Qin Yao nodded.

Ah Hong smiled and waved her hand: "No need to thank me, we're friends... Besides, you've helped me so much."

Qin Yao had a thought and put away the red lotus: "Then, we're even."

Ah Hong: "..."

That's not what I meant.

Two hours later.

It's the third watch of the night.

Qin Yao sat cross-legged in his bedroom, raised his hands to form a hand seal, and released a soundproof barrier that covered the entire room. He then took out his communicator and silently infused it with a wisp of magic power: "Bad luck, bad luck..."

“Master, I’m here.” A moment later, the jinx’s voice suddenly rang out.

Qin Yao instructed, "Find a way to bring down another princess."

"Alright, I'll go to the princess's residence and see if I can find any opportunities," the jinx readily agreed.

fairyland.

Princess House.

When the jinx, carrying his broom, swaggered over, he saw the Fifth Princess, Aqing, sitting on a swing in the mansion, swinging back and forth, higher and higher, her laughter echoing throughout the entire mansion like silver bells.

The jinx rolled its eyes once, then called out with a serious expression, "Fifth Princess, Fifth Princess..."

On the swing, Ah Qing, who had reached the highest point, suddenly flew up and landed in front of Broom Star like a projectile thrown from the sky: "Do you need something from me?"

Broom Star nodded: "I wanted to ask the Fifth Princess if the Eldest Princess has returned yet?"

Aqing slowly narrowed her eyes: "What do you mean, 'Has Big Sister returned?' She's clearly in seclusion..."

The Broom Star waved his hand and said, "To outsiders, the eldest princess is in seclusion, but to me... Fifth Princess, to be honest, the eldest princess descended to the mortal realm because of me."

Aqing: "..."

"It is precisely because of this relationship that I am worried that she will stay in the border area and not return for a long time."

The jinx said with a sincere expression, "After all, if it's just longing for the mortal world, that's fine, but what if they encounter some danger..."

Aqing's lips twitched.

What does it mean to be "good or bad" when it comes to worldly desires?

The last princess who longed for the mortal world has now become a wanted criminal by the Heavenly Court.

Do you know where my older sister is?

After a moment of silence, Aqing looked into the other person's eyes and said.

The jinx looked around, and after confirming that no one else was nearby, he nodded and transmitted his voice, "I know."

Where?

“I can tell you where she is, but you have to promise me you’ll bring her back as soon as possible. I can’t handle this much psychological pressure.”

"Okay." Aqing agreed without hesitation.

world.

a few days later.

Aqing slowly stepped into the Weaver Girl's Cloth Shop. Ahong, who was doing accounts at the counter, suddenly looked up, but was taken aback: "Fifth Sister?"

"Miss?"

Looking at the handsome young man in front of her, Aqing's expression became even more astonished.

Ah Hong nodded and strode over from behind the counter to stand in front of her: "Why did you also descend to the mortal realm?"

“The jinx is worried that you might fall in love with the mortal world, so he asked me to persuade you to go back as soon as possible,” Aqing said frankly.

Ah Hong frowned slightly: "That jinx, he clearly promised me he wouldn't spread this matter."

Ah Qing laughed and said, "He probably thinks I'm not an outsider... Eldest sister, weren't you dealing with Seventh Sister's matter? Why are you acting as the manager here?"

"Guess whose property this cloth shop is?" Ah Hong asked rhetorically.

Aqing's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be Seventh Sister's business?"

“It’s Seventh Sister’s business,” Ah Hong said with a smile. “You stay here with me while I sell the cloth. After we close, I’ll take you to see Seventh Sister…”

half an hour.

A young man dressed in white and holding a folding fan walked into the Weaver Girl's Cloth Shop. When his eyes fell on the figure of the Fifth Sister, his eyes widened as if struck by lightning.

Ah Hong greeted him with a smile and asked, "Young master, are you buying cloth?" "No, no, no."

The young man stared intently at Fifth Sister, responding unconsciously.

Ah Qing couldn't help but laugh at her infatuated look, and when she laughed, she instantly stole the young man's affections, making him laugh foolishly along with her.

Ah Hong shook her head helplessly and stepped in front of the other person, saying, "Young master, may I ask what brings you here?"

The young man suddenly came to his senses and chuckled dryly: "May I ask who that beautiful young lady is?"

Ah Hong turned to look at Fifth Sister and said, "She is my sister."

The young man's eyes lit up: "May I ask if my younger sister is married?"

Aqing raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"To be honest, I fell in love with you at first sight, young lady. If you were not yet married..." the young man said slowly.

Aqing interrupted directly: "I'm already engaged, so don't even think about it."

The young man paused slightly, then pressed on, "Have you gotten married?"

No, not at all.

"I still have a chance as long as we're not married," the young man said hastily. "My name is Wang Xu. May I ask your name, young lady?"

Aqing: "..."

"Don't bother asking, you have no chance."

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from beside the door.

The three people inside turned their heads to look, and saw a handsome man striding in, his eyes sharp and his demeanor noble.

The young man asked in a deep voice, "You're her fiancé?"

Qin Yao shook his head: "No."

The young man quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "If not, how do you know I don't have a chance?"

“Because I know who you are,” Qin Yao said with a smile.

The young man was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

Qin Yao responded, "How can you, the son of a cloth merchant, be worthy of such a celestial beauty? Even if you could marry her, could you keep her? After all, above merchants are officials, and above officials are powerful and influential people!"

Through the causal threads on this person, he learned that this was Wang Xiangwu's child.

It was precisely because of his dislike for Wang Xiangwu that he had no good feelings towards this kid and spoke without any restraint.

Wang Xu felt a tightness in his chest, unable to exhale or exhale, his face turning a mixture of red and blue.

Qin Yao waved his hand and said lightly, "Aren't you going to leave? Are you going to stay here and make us watch a face-changing performance?"

Wang Xu, filled with shame and indignation, turned and left, disappearing from the three people's sight in the blink of an eye.

"hehe."

Upon seeing this, Ah Hong burst out laughing.

Aqing's gaze swept between the two of them before she asked, "Do you know each other?"

Ah Hong nodded: "Let me introduce you. Fifth Sister, this is Mr. Qin Yao, Dong Yong's godfather."

Mr. Qin, this is my fifth sister, Qing'er. You can call her A-Qing or Xiao-Qing, it's fine.

"Dong Yong's godfather? You look so young, aren't you embarrassed to have people call you godfather?" Aqing asked.

Qin Yao laughed and said, "I only look young. I'm old enough to be Dong Yong's ancestor. What's there to be embarrassed about?"

Aqing was taken aback: "You're a cultivator?"

Qin Yao shook his head: "No, I am an immortal."

“No, I’ve never heard of an immortal named Qin Yao,” A Qing said, waving her hand.

Qin Yao laughed and said, "Perhaps it's because I'm a celestial being in the mortal world."

Aqing: "..."

Ah Hong pursed her lips and smiled, "Mr. Qin, could you watch the shop for me? I'll take Fifth Sister to see Seventh Sister."

"Of course you can." Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, no need to rush back."

A short while later.

Halfway there.

After learning about Mr. Qin's situation and their shared experiences from her older sister, Aqing exclaimed in surprise, "All-powerful? Is he really that amazing?"

Ah Hong nodded slightly: "If he's really that amazing, you'll see when you get to know him better."

Seeing her radiant smile, Aqing frowned slightly: "Big sister, you haven't really fallen for worldly desires, have you?"

Ah Hong remained silent.

In the silence, Ah Qing spoke again: "If that's the case, then the God of Food in the heavens..."

Ah Hong immediately interrupted, saying, "I didn't."

"Nothing?" Aqing asked.

Ah Hong lowered her eyes and said, "I have nothing to do with the God of Cookery."

"And what about Mr. Qin?" Aqing pressed.

Ah Hong: "..."

Ah Qing sighed: "Big sister, you've always been mature, calm, and capable in handling things. How did you become like this?"

Ah Hong let out a long sigh: "Mr. Qin and I are nothing special, at most... I admire him a little."

"At most? That's quite a lot," Aqing said.

Ah Hong blushed: "Don't say anymore, don't say anymore... I won't make a mistake."

Aqing rolled her eyes.

That statement lacked any real conviction.

fairyland.

Imperial kitchen.

The God of Cookery was chopping vegetables with a troubled mind when he accidentally cut his finger, and blood instantly stained the cutting board.

"God of Cookery, are you alright?"

Xiao Xian, who was in charge of preparing the side dishes, quickly asked.

The God of Cookery took a deep look at his bleeding fingers and suddenly said, "I'm going out for a bit."

"Where are you going?" Xiao Xian asked hurriedly.

"If anyone asks, just say I went to treat my wound," the God of Cookery replied.

In the blink of an eye.

He flew swiftly to the princess's residence, pacing back and forth anxiously, unable to make up his mind.

From the day they first met at the Peach Banquet, he fell in love with the eldest princess at first sight. Over the years, he had deliberately tried to meet her countless times, but he never dared to express his feelings.

After all, the rules of heaven are strict, and he dared not disobey them, nor did he want to harm the other party.

Just now, he had a premonition that something might have happened to the eldest princess, which is why he rushed to the princess's residence, but couldn't take that final step.

"God of Cookery, who are you looking for?"

After an unknown amount of time, Ah Lü flew over swiftly and asked directly.

The God of Food gritted his teeth and mustered his courage to say, "Fourth Princess, could you please call the First Princess for me?"

Ah Lü shook her head: "No, eldest sister is in seclusion and we don't know when she will emerge."

The God of Cookery was taken aback.

Seclusion?

This kind of thing happens to princesses too?

"God of Food, come to Tianxu to see me immediately."

Just as he was filled with doubt, a dignified voice suddenly rang in his ears. (End of Chapter)
