I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"Please speak, Mr. Qin. I will do my best to help you," Ah Huang said sincerely.

Qin Yao nodded: "Years ago, I was harmed by a villain, and a curse was planted in my body that I have never been able to remove."

While repairing your immortal bones just now, I discovered that your immortal energy has a suppressive effect on this curse. Therefore, I would like to ask for your help in sealing this curse's power.

"Could this curse be the calamity my godfather told me about back then?" Azi asked subconsciously.

Out of gratitude and trust, she poured her immortal energy into the red lotus without reservation simply because the other party said, "I will do everything in my power to help me overcome my tribulation." She still remembers it vividly to this day.

“That’s right,” Qin Yao said. “Therefore, meeting you all is perhaps a blessing from heaven.”

Ah Huang let out a soft breath and asked, "What should I do?"

Qin Yao sat cross-legged in the void, silently summoning the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, which hovered three feet above his head: "It's very simple. With all your heart and soul, pour your immortal energy into this red lotus to help me break the curse."

"it is good!"

Ah Huang agreed, formed a hand seal, and released a beam of yellow light-like immortal energy, connecting it to the side wall of the red lotus.

Qin Yao followed suit, continuously collecting Ah Huang's primordial magical power to construct a seal, his goal being to break the yellow shackles...

fairyland.

Tushita Palace.

While Laozi was writing the Taoist scriptures, he suddenly felt a sensation and turned around. He saw the compass hanging above the divine array diagram spinning continuously, giving him a sense of being in a frantic state.

Lao Jun gasped, hurriedly got up, transformed into a rainbow, and headed straight for the Jade Pool Immortal Palace.

"This old minister pays his respects to Your Majesty."

"Laojun, there's no need for such formalities."

Inside the celestial palace, the Queen Mother rose to greet him, showing the old immortal the utmost respect.

"Your Majesty, there is great chaos in the south direction; it must be that the evil spirits have become stronger!" Laozi said solemnly.

Queen Mother: "..."

Enhancement?

What did my junior brother do this time?
"Your Majesty, has the Barefoot Immortal searched for so long and still not found any trace of the demon?" Laozi asked anxiously during the silence.

The Queen Mother shook her head: "No."

"Your Majesty, I humbly request that you send the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King to the mortal realm to search for the Demon King's whereabouts," Laozi said.

The Queen Mother hesitated and said, "Even the Barefoot Immortal couldn't do it, how could the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King do it?"

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten the relationship between Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, and Buddhism? After the great calamity of the Journey to the West, Buddhism flourished, and its power spread throughout almost the entire mortal realm. If there is anyone in the celestial realm who can find the Demon King, it must be none other than Li Jing, the Heavenly King," Laozi said.

Queen Mother: "..."

At this moment, no one knows the complex emotions she is experiencing.

She hoped her junior brother could reform his ways, but apart from her, all the other immortals and gods regarded him as a potential threat and were determined to kill him before he could recover.

The problem is, she can't stop it yet.

She knew very well that the reason why other immortals and gods behaved this way was ultimately because it was a manifestation of the Jade Emperor's will.

Putting aside everything else, that compass was built by the Jade Emperor and Laozi together; otherwise, how could it have monitored the junior brother's movements?
Seven days passed in the human world during their conversation.

For seven days, Jinzha had repeatedly tried to persuade the Third Princess to return to Heaven, but she would always change the subject and, when pressed, would say that her bones hurt, leaving him helpless.

Driven by the same guilt, he took good care of the third princess, and the two gradually became a couple, growing closer together.

Qin Yao saw this scene and thus subtly reduced his presence, allowing the two to focus more on the loving couple, A Zi and Dong Yong.

The power of role models is immense, and such loving and sweet scenes and phenomena can easily make even the gods, whose minds are bound by heavenly rules, feel envious.

This envy comes from having a perfect romantic partner by your side; even if he does nothing, everything will naturally fall into place.

That being said, his hope that Jinzha and Ah Huang would get married was not because he saw that the two were a good match and he wanted to help them get together, but because he wanted to use Jinzha to win over Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, and make him a key force in breaking the old heavenly rules.

After all, this version of Li Jing loves his child very much, and he holds a very important position in the Heavenly Court.

"Master, Master..."

On this day, Qin Yao was cultivating in his bedroom as usual when the voice of the jinx suddenly rang out from his bosom.

"What's wrong?" Qin Yao asked softly, stopping his cultivation and taking out his communicator.

"Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, has led his troops down to the mortal realm. I suspect they are after you, so please be very careful," said the Broom Star.

Qin Yao smiled slightly: "It's alright, I'm just waiting for him to come."

The jinx stared blankly for a moment, then asked in a daze, "Huh?"

"Do you know why the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King suddenly descended to the mortal realm?" Qin Yao had no obligation to explain to him, so he asked in return.

The Broom Star's voice suddenly softened: "I learned from the Thousand-Mile Eye and the Wind-Following Ear that Laozi suddenly went to see the Queen Mother of the West, and then the Queen Mother of the West summoned the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King."

"It seems that the compass is the culprit again. This thing must be eliminated," Qin Yao muttered to himself.

The jinx took this as an order and asked softly, "How do I get rid of it?"

Qin Yao smiled and said, "Go down to the mortal realm, and I'll give you something. As long as you can throw this into the Tushita Palace while Laozi is away, everything will be fine..."

A short while later.

After ending the call, Qin Yao silently used the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique to create an avatar of immortal energy, which he then concealed within a peach wood talisman.

The Heavenly Court is currently under martial law, so it's impossible to approach the Tushita Palace by simply using an incarnation, but the Broom Star can.

His cleaning duties allowed him free access to any part of the Heavenly Court without arousing suspicion, which gave him the possibility of bringing his avatar into the Tushita Palace...

"Master, Master." In the blink of an eye, the jinx carrying a big broom flew over and came to Qin Yao with a fawning face.

Qin Yao chuckled and tossed the peach wood talisman to the other person: "Catch."

The jinx quickly caught the peach wood talisman, which resembled a token, and asked with great interest, "Master, what kind of treasure is this?"

"Simply put, there is an avatar of your master inside the wooden talisman," Qin Yao replied.

The jinx pursed his lips and chuckled, "Master, I've risked my life for you to do so many things, wouldn't you like to reward me with something?"

Qin Yao chuckled, pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and said, "Give me your broom."

The jinx blinked, then with a flick of his hand summoned his magical artifact and presented it to the other party.

After Qin Yao took the broom, he used his fingers as a pen and his immortal energy as ink to carve characters on the wooden handle of the broom, each character shimmering with a faint golden glow.

Seeing this, the jinx's eyes immediately filled with anticipation, and he quietly clenched his hands.

A full quarter of an hour later.

As Qin Yaoming carved the last character, the broom suddenly emitted a chilling sword aura, releasing a murderous aura.

"Master, this broom..." the Broom Star asked hopefully.

Qin Yao casually tossed the broom back to the other party and laughed, "I engraved twelve magic arrays on this broom of yours. It can summon wind and rain, fly, transform, summon thunder, release sword energy, and so on. Go and experience it."

Overjoyed, the Broom Star stroked the broom, which emanated a powerful aura, and suddenly knelt down:
"Thank you, Master. I, the Broom Star, will do my utmost, serve you with all my might, and even die for you."

Qin Yao waved his hand: "You can't die. If you die, who will run errands for me?" "Yes, yes, yes."

The jinx chuckled: "I will live well and serve you for all eternity."

Qin Yao nodded and said, "Go..."

Not long after.

The broom star flew swiftly to a hilltop, trying out the various abilities the broom could provide, and finally poured its magic power into the broom, lifting it up and bringing it down with a mighty chop.

Countless sword energies shot out from the broom, landing on the opposite mountaintop and instantly blasting the entire mountaintop apart.

"Whoosh..."

The jinx couldn't help but cheer, even jumping around happily on the spot.

For a powerful figure like his master, these twelve formations were merely a reward, but for him, they represented a qualitative leap in his life!
This made him realize a profound truth while celebrating: to succeed, you must first follow the right people!

After a long while.

After finally calming down, the Broom Star rushed back to Heaven as fast as he could, sweeping and sweeping, until he unknowingly found himself near the Tushita Palace.

He waited for most of the day until Laozi finally came out. He quickly threw the peach wood talisman into the palace gate.

With a loud slap, the peach wood talisman was slammed onto the alchemy furnace, attracting a white-robed boy...

"what is this?"

Curious, the boy picked up the peach wood talisman and was about to examine it closely when suddenly, runes of law burst forth from the talisman, instantly imprisoning the entire Tushita Palace.

A moment later, a figure wearing a mask and black armor flew out of the peach wood talisman, appeared in front of the compass, smashed the large ladle with a punch, and then shattered the divine array diagram.

High above the clouds, Laozi's expression suddenly changed. He transformed into a rainbow and returned to the Tushita Palace at top speed, just in time to see the black-armored figure completely shatter the divine array diagram.

"Madman!"

Lao Jun roared and fiercely swung his whisk, causing three thousand silver threads to surge wildly, like three thousand flying needles rushing towards the back of the black-armored figure.

The black-armored figure arrived before the white-robed boy with ghostly speed, took the peach wood talisman from his hand, and suddenly crushed it.

As wood chips flew everywhere, the black-armored figure transformed into wisps of celestial energy and completely dissipated within the Tushita Palace.

Laozi: "..."

world.

After a three-month search, Qin Yao finally found the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, who was searching for him with all his might. Donning a mask, he launched a surprise attack.

Inside the ancient city.

on the street.

The hairs on the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King's body suddenly stood on end, and he subconsciously summoned his pagoda. However, before he could suspend the pagoda above his head, runes that attacked from behind landed on his back.

In an instant, he was frozen in place, gripping the pagoda. The heavenly soldiers disguised as guards around him also stopped. Just as they were about to ask questions, runes from the corners began to fall on them.

Qin Yao slowly approached from behind, raised his hand and snatched the pagoda from the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, then placed more seals on the Heavenly King, completely eliminating the possibility of him breaking the seal on his own.

Finally, with a wave of his sleeve, he gathered up all the heavenly soldiers around him, flew away, and released his control over Li Jing's body.

Li Jing was horrified. He turned around abruptly, but all he saw was a black dot disappearing into the horizon.

He doesn't understand.

In my opinion, how could someone have touched me from behind without me noticing?

I don't understand at all.

That person could have taken this opportunity to kill him, or at least severely injure him, so why did he only seal his magic power?
Countless thoughts surged wildly in his mind, making him increasingly alarmed and horrified, with a vague feeling that he had fallen into a terrible trap.

evening.

Danyang Town, inside a courtyard.

Upon seeing Qin Yao, Jinzha, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly went to greet him, cupping his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "Mr. Qin."

Qin Yao smiled and nodded: "Did you need something?"

Jinzha pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "I would like to ask you something."

"You said."

Jinzha took a deep breath and said, "I have a friend..."

Qin Yao couldn't help but chuckle: "Forget being friends, we've lived together for over half a year, what are you pretending for?"

Jinzha, embarrassed, forced a dry laugh and said, "What do you think of me and her..."

Without hesitation, Qin Yao replied, "A perfect match!"

Jinzha said, "I haven't said who it is yet..."

Qin Yao laughed and said, "I'm not blind, but you're really wooden."

Jinzha: "Huh?"

"I thought you would have made up your mind two or three months ago, but who knew you would take half a year, and make the girl wait for you for half a year as well," Qin Yao said, spreading his hands.

Jinzha murmured, "The main thing is, the Heavenly Rules..."

"What nonsense about heavenly rules, you're just a block of wood." Qin Yao said with a laugh, "Ask yourself honestly, if you dared to break the precepts and rules, wouldn't she give up royal power and wealth for you?"

Jinzha exhaled a breath of stale air: "I understand, Mr. Qin."

"Then hurry up and go!" Qin Yao waved his hand and said.

"Yes," Jinzha replied, his body instantly transforming into golden light and disappearing.

Qin Yao chuckled to himself, thinking, "If we wait another six months, until Old Li experiences the full spectrum of human emotions again and remembers what it felt like to be human, then we can arrange for father and son to meet..."

In his view, everything requires a gradual process.

If we can't awaken Old Li's humanity and arrange for him and his son to meet, then Old Li will most likely use his fatherly status to force Jinzha to arrest Ah Huang, just like in the original series.

In the end, Jinzha had no choice but to die at least once...

But if we awaken Old Li's humanity first, then it won't be so difficult for him to accept his son's romantic relationships.

at the same time.

The God of Food, who was still lying in wait, suddenly received a summons from the Jade Emperor. He rushed to the Heavenly Ruins as fast as he could and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"How is it progressing?" the Jade Emperor asked directly.

The God of Food looked helpless: "Ever since the Third Princess descended to the mortal realm, King Yin Shi has been living in seclusion. I can't even see his face, let alone anything else."

"He won't show himself... then why don't you try to force him to show himself?" the Jade Emperor questioned.

The God of Cookery explained, "I was afraid of exposing myself, after all, there is a huge gap in strength between him and me."

The Jade Emperor was speechless. He then used magic to send out a small black bottle: "Sprinkle the contents of this bottle into the dishes prepared in restaurants and taverns. It won't be long before he shows up."

The God of Food reached out and took the small black bottle, a sudden unease rising within him: "May I ask, Your Majesty, what is in this bottle?" (End of Chapter)
