I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"To put it simply, I want you to help me sneak down to the mortal realm," Aqing said with a grin.

Qin Yao smiled and said, "This matter is quite simple."

As he spoke, he turned to the other fairies and asked, "Anyone else want to come down to the mortal realm with me?"

After recovering more than 90% of his strength, he no longer needed to be timid or hesitant in his actions, and he was no longer afraid of encountering anyone.

"I think I need to remind you..."

Seeing that her sisters, including her eldest sister, were showing interest, Ah Cheng had no choice but to calmly and rationally say, "Because of what happened between Zi'er and Dong Yong, the Princess's residence has always been a key monitoring location for the Barefoot Immortal!"

"Don't worry," Qin Yao said. "If we really encounter the Barefoot Immortal, I'll take care of him; as for you, we can tell the outside world that I've kidnapped you."

Aqing couldn't help but chuckle: "I really like your answer."

Qin Yao smiled slightly and summoned a dimensional gate leading to a three-courtyard mansion in the mortal realm with his bare hands: "Those who wish to descend to the lower realm, please follow me."

Aqing was the first to catch up with him, followed by Ahong, Alu, and Alan. Only Acheng remained in place, looking at them with a helpless expression.

"Are you sure you're not coming?" Qin Yao asked, looking up.

Ah Cheng shook her head decisively, and even asked in return, "Are you sure you can protect them?"

"Absolutely certain." Qin Yao chuckled and quickly shrank the dimensional gate.

"How did you bring back so many princesses?" Li Jing, sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, looked astonished. He didn't even hold his teacup properly, spilling tea all over the table.

Compared to him, the four princesses were even more flustered, all staring at Qin Yao, silently asking why the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King was here.

Qin Yao chuckled and first said to the four fairies, "Don't worry, Heavenly King Li is one of us now."

Upon hearing this, the four princesses and Li Jing all fell silent.

"They were feeling stifled in the Celestial Palace, so I brought them down with me." Qin Yao turned to look at Li Jing and silently answered the other's earlier question.

"Aren't you afraid..." Li Jing couldn't help but ask.

“There’s nothing to be afraid of now.” Qin Yao responded before he could finish speaking.

Li Jing's expression faltered slightly, then he asked, "You know that I've been unsealed, right?"

"I sensed it." Qin Yao nodded. "However, the fact that the Queen Mother of the West isn't here shows that you've already chosen me."

Li Jing smiled with a complicated expression: "One wrong step leads to another, and I've fallen into the trap you carefully set."

He did indeed send the Queen Mother away, and only after confirming that she had truly left did he return here to wait for Qin Yao to come back.

Qin Yao waved his hand: "In this kind of thing, there is no right or wrong, only stance! Believe me, one day in the future, you will definitely be glad you made the choice today."

Li Jing let out a soft breath, stood up and said, "I'm leaving... The farther I am from you after I recover my divine power, the safer you will be."

Qin Yao looked up at the setting sun and said gently, "Let's have dinner together when Azi and the others come back, as a farewell gesture."

Li Jing hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

That night.

After the banquet.

Qin Yao, Dong Yong, Jinzha, and six fairies saw Li Jing off. When they arrived at the door, Li Jing looked at his son and daughter-in-law, who were like a golden boy and jade girl, and smiled, "I am waiting for you to blossom and bear fruit."

Ah Huang's face immediately turned crimson, and he lowered his eyes.

Jinzha grinned and silently tightened his grip on his lover's hand: "I'll try my best."

Li Jing waved his hand, his body transforming into a golden light and instantly disappearing in front of the courtyard gate...

Not far away.

On the roof ridge.

The God of Cookery silently observed this scene, and suddenly a plan formed in his mind...

If the Queen Mother were secretly brought here at this time, and she were to witness the princesses descending to the mortal realm and the Third Princess being intimate with Jinzha, she would surely be furious.

When she clashes with Yin Shi Wang, he might be able to take advantage of the situation.

"It seems I was right. Even if you find them again, you won't actually notify me."

Shortly after, just as he was about to take action, a cold, eerie voice suddenly rang in his ears.

The God of Food was shocked and turned around abruptly, only to find that the Barefoot Immortal had appeared in the courtyard below the roof ridge at some unknown time.

"Great Immortal, you..."

"What? If I can find you once with the Immortal Record, I can naturally find you a second time. Can't you even think of that? How dare you disobey me!" the Barefoot Immortal said coldly.

The God of Food took a deep breath and slowly flew back to the courtyard: "Great Immortal, I have come up with a solution."

"What method?" the Barefoot Immortal asked patiently.

The God of Food said, "By stirring up a war between the Queen Mother of the West and the Yin Erosion King, we can fish in troubled waters."

"presumptuous."

The Barefoot Immortal sneered, "Who do you think you are, to take advantage of the Queen Mother of the West and reap the benefits without lifting a finger?"

God of Cookery: "..."

At that moment, a sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in his heart.

"You wait here, and I will go to suppress the Yin Shi King and escort the princesses to heaven to be punished."

This time, it must serve as a warning to others and completely curb the unhealthy trend of lust for worldly pleasures.

The Barefoot Immortal rose into the air, summoning a whisk with a wave of his hand, exuding a murderous aura.

The God of Cookery's right eyelid twitched suddenly, and he hurriedly said, "Great Immortal, please wait!"

The Barefoot Immortal hovered above the courtyard, looking down and asking, "Do you have anything else to say?"

“Great Immortal, if the Yin Erosion King were easy to deal with, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother wouldn’t have needed to join forces to seal him away; he wouldn’t even be alive now.”

The God of Food said solemnly, "Therefore, I sincerely advise you not to act impulsively. Let's wait for the Queen Mother of the West to arrive before making any decisions."

The Barefoot Immortal shook his head: "We all know how strong Yin Shi Wang's spiritual abilities are. I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will be detected by him on her way here, and then... we'll alert him, and everything will be in vain."

The God of Cookery earnestly advised, "But this is the safest approach."

"What do you mean by 'safest'? Do you really think deep down that my trip will be fraught with danger?" the Barefoot Immortal asked, his face displeased.

God of Cookery: "..."

"Alright then, you go and invite the Queen Mother of the West, and I'll hold off King Yin Shi. No matter how strong he is, he can't kill me so easily." The Barefoot Immortal didn't want to waste any more words. His body suddenly transformed into a rainbow of light and rushed straight into the third courtyard.

Inside the courtyard.

Qin Yao suddenly sensed the Barefoot Immortal rushing towards him. With a slight thought, he instantly appeared in front of him.

On the street, the Barefoot Immortal suddenly stopped, silently gripping his immortal sword: "Yin Erosion King!"

Qin Yao smiled, then transformed into countless golden specks of light, shooting straight into the sky.

"Where do you think you're going!"

The Barefoot Immortal let out a cold shout and immediately drew his sword to give chase. Qin Yao wasn't flying very fast, but he was still several steps ahead of the Barefoot Immortal.

The Barefoot Immortal felt that if he tried harder, he could pierce the other's body with his immortal sword. But each time he was just a little short, causing him to unconsciously chase after the other away from Danyang Town and quickly arrive at the unfinished Tiangang Lake.

"Immortal Binding Lock!"

The Barefoot Immortal felt that this fellow was making fun of him, so he shook his sleeves and flung out a treasured item he had kept hidden away.

After the golden immortal rope flew out of the robe, it transformed into a golden dragon as thick as a wrist in the air, carrying a dazzling golden light, and rushed towards Qin Yao's waist at an even faster speed.

Qin Yao suddenly stopped, turned around and pushed his palm. A burst of karmic fire, like a blood snake, shot out from his palm and collided with the Immortal Binding Lock, exploding instantly into countless sparks, which ignited the Immortal Lock itself.

The barefoot immortal's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously raised his sleeves and rushed towards the flames.

Unexpectedly, the flames were extremely flammable. Not only did he fail to extinguish them, but he also set his own robe sleeve on fire, forcing him to cut off his sleeve with his sword to avoid getting burned.

Here, Qin Yao stopped running and silently summoned the Four Fiend Swords, which manifested as the Chaos Sword Domain.

"Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, by imperial decree."

The Barefoot Immortal held a celestial sword, its tip pointing to the sky. Immediately, wind and clouds surged above Qin Yao's head, accompanied by thunderous roars.

"boom!"

Immediately, under his guidance, nine thick bolts of lightning simultaneously struck down from the sky, creating a deafening and breathtaking sound.

However, at this moment, Qin Yao's Chaotic Sword Domain had already enveloped himself. When the lightning struck into the sword domain along the predetermined route, it was instantly decomposed and even transformed into the essence energy that enhanced the sword domain.

With a solemn expression, the Barefoot Immortal hurled his immortal sword fiercely at the gray area ahead.

However, when the immortal sword entered the immortal realm, it was immediately shattered by countless fine sword energies, turning into dust and falling to the ground.

The Barefoot Immortal frowned, transformed into a towering giant, raised one giant foot, and stomped fiercely towards the Chaos Sword Domain with wind and thunder.

"boom!"

The giant foot slammed to the ground, and the Barefoot Immortal couldn't help but let out a scream.

The reason was simple: four giant swords stood upright on the ground like nails, piercing into the soles of his feet and emerging from the backs of his feet.

Taking advantage of his weakness, Qin Yao raised his hand to form a seal, summoning the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus, which landed directly on the opponent's head, spewing out a large amount of karmic fire.

In this critical moment, the Barefoot Immortal had no choice but to temporarily ignore the excruciating pain in his feet, raise his hands, and create a barrier of light in an attempt to block the karmic fire.

To his utter surprise, the flames could even burn immortal energy, and they descended along the light screen, quickly spreading throughout his body via his hands and arms.

"No!"

The Barefoot Immortal roared fiercely, but no matter what he did, the flames all over his body could not be extinguished.

Upon spotting the ditch not far away, and with the thought of trying anything as a last resort, he suddenly plunged into the water.

However, if even celestial energy couldn't extinguish the flames, how could ordinary mortal water possibly put them out? Thus, in the water, the Barefoot Immortal was completely engulfed by the karmic fire, leaving not even a speck of ashes behind...

The distant grassland.

The God of Food, who had not gone to the Heavenly Court to invite the Queen Mother, witnessed this scene and was completely dumbfounded.

He had considered that the Barefoot Immortal was no match for the Yin Erosion King, but he never expected the Barefoot Immortal to die so swiftly and decisively.

After all, the other party was a top-level immortal who was in charge of the heavenly rules and laws. How could he have died so easily?
After regaining his senses, he was immediately enveloped in extreme fear, and without any hesitation, he rushed straight into the sky.

half an hour.

The Lingxiao Palace.

When the Queen Mother and the gods heard that the Barefoot Immortal had been killed, their first thought was that the Food God who came to report had gone mad.

But looking at the fear on the God of Cookery's face, no one would think he would dare to lie about something like this!
Inside the main hall.

Among the officials.

Laozi took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the chaotic emotions in his heart, and cupped his hands, saying:

"Your Majesty, it seems that the Yin Shi King has probably recovered his full strength. Now that the Jade Emperor is in seclusion, only Your Majesty can fight him in the world. Therefore, this old minister humbly requests Your Majesty to personally descend to the mortal realm to slay the demon."

"Please, Your Majesty, descend to the mortal realm and vanquish the demon!"

The fox mourned the death of its rabbit, and the immortals, terrified by the ferocity of the Yin Shi King, all knelt and kowtowed, pleading for his life.

On the throne, the Queen Mother's lips twitched slightly.

She didn't understand why the Yin Shi King wanted to kill the Barefoot Immortal, and why he didn't leave her any room for maneuver.

If Yin Shi Wang could spare the Barefoot Immortal, even if he severely injured him, she could still turn the tide.

It shouldn't be like this now, where I can't even utter a word of refusal.

"Your Majesty, we must act now; otherwise, Heaven will be in grave danger, and the Three Realms will face a great calamity," Laozi pleaded once more.

The Queen Mother slowly rose, her heart filled with complex emotions, and said in a heavy tone, "Dismiss the court. I will now descend to the mortal realm to find the Demon King!"

world.

Inside the courtyard.

Qin Yao gathered all the main characters around him and said in a deep voice, "Ah Hong, you should take the other princesses back now."

"What happened?" Ah Hong asked.

Qin Yao replied, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Queen Mother will come to Danyang Town to find me soon."

Ah Hong was still puzzled: "Why?"

Qin Yao constructed a dimensional portal leading to the princess's residence and said quickly, "The situation is urgent, and I don't have time to explain it to you in detail. I'll explain it to you slowly after I get through this."

Ah Hong hesitated slightly, but ultimately chose to believe her and quickly led her sisters back to the princess's residence.

After doing all this, Qin Yao turned to A Zi, Dong Yong, and Jin Zha and said, "You should also leave. Leave Danyang Town as soon as possible and come back in ten days or half a month."

"You and Mother... won't fight to the death, will you?" Azi asked with concern.

Qin Yao smiled and shook his head: "No. Even if there is a struggle, it won't be a life-or-death confrontation, because there is no fundamental conflict of interest between us."

Azi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a firm gaze, "I don't want to see any of you get hurt!"

Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, hurry up and leave, lest she block your way at home; if that happens, you might be fine, but Dong Yong will suffer."

He still remembers a scene in the original play where the Queen Mother "tortured" Dong Yong, turning him into a bird and then into a sheep.

In short, the goal was to forcibly torture and separate Azi and Dong Yong.

"Godfather, take care," Dong Yong said solemnly.

Qin Yao smiled and said, "It's alright, go ahead without worry..."

After watching the three leave, Qin Yao sat alone at the table, drinking tea and waiting for the Queen Mother to come and settle accounts with him.

The other party didn't keep him waiting long. As the sun set and night fell, the Queen Mother, clad in armor and holding a scepter, slowly flew down into the courtyard and stared at the figure in the courtyard: "King Yin Shi, I need an explanation!"

Hearing her call him "Yin Shi Wang" instead of "Junior Brother," Qin Yao knew immediately that a fierce battle would break out if he didn't respond properly... (End of Chapter)
