Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 819 The Mysterious Maiden's Imperial Conferment
Wu Xian picked up the fallen card.

The front of the card says 404, which is the correct room number.

The back contains a message:
This room is not adjacent to apartment 207, and it's not on the same floor as apartment 503. The room directly below it has a number ending in 2.

After reading this, Wu Xian couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"The correct room number can be obtained by killing the evil spirits in the room, while the room numbers of those without evil spirits must be deduced from the information on the small cards dropped by the evil spirits?"

"This... is so boring."

Wu Xian, somewhat speechless, passed on the message.

Upon receiving the message, the relatives split up and took action, killing the evil spirits in the room one by one. These evil spirits were not as easy to deal with as the 'Hanging Evil Spirit'.

Every time the old woman who was scavenging was attacked, she would forcibly remove one piece of the attacker's equipment.

Finding Shan Yong hiding in a room full of closets would take a lot of time.

The voyeur in apartment 505, whose ability to freeze-frame past attacks is particularly troublesome.

This is only what Wu Xian encountered; the evil spirits faced by the other members of the family also have different rule-based abilities.

What's worse, some of these evil spirits have been enhanced, so dealing with them all will be no easy task.

Several hours passed.

The five familiars, now bearing more wounds and having exhausted much of their worship power, reunited.

They sat together, copied down the information on the cards, and worked together to solve the logic puzzle.

This question is a bit convoluted, but it's much cuter than evil spirits.

Furthermore, more than complicated puzzles, the people of the family are afraid of having no puzzles at all, since puzzles mean that solving them will bring some reward.

It took some time for the family members to restore the correct room numbers.

After all the room numbers were successfully switched, a vertical map of the four floors appeared on the corridor windows, with each room number marked, except for the missing stairwell.

Boom!

Before anyone could make a move, the corridor where they were located began to shift, moving to the location of the disappeared stairwell.

Then, the room above crashed down.

"The Huarong Road challenge has begun."

The "Huarong Road" mentioned in the message left by Du E is a puzzle game.

In a space of fixed size, several sliders are placed, leaving only a small amount of space for a few sliders to move. The goal of the game is to move one of the sliders out of this space.

What Du'e is doing now is using that one empty space to move the rooms that have been restored to their correct numbers until they are back in their normal order.

This game sounds simple, but it's actually very difficult.

Therefore, when Du E moved rooms, five family members stood in the corridor, like old men watching a chess game on the street, constantly giving Du E advice.

Finally, through everyone's collective wisdom, the order of the deep mystery building was restored.

With a rumbling roar, a room slowly rose from beneath the vanished stairwell, and the last stairwell finally appeared, which meant that everyone had solved the mystery of the deep dream.

Wu Xian drew a big smiley face on the window, and then led Wan Jue and the other three into the newly appeared staircase.

……

Du E leaned on the edge of the table, sitting on her diary, her legs swinging idly.

When she saw a curly-haired man and several other servants walk into the room from the opposite side, she jumped off the table and waved to them. "You've finally come."

"I thought I was going to be locked up here until I died, and mold up with all that stuff."

Seeing that she was unharmed, Wu Xian teased her in a lighthearted tone:
"The second line of your code was 'wagging your tail and begging for mercy.' Now that we've rescued you, it's your turn to wag your tail at us."

Upon hearing this, Du E's mouth twitched slightly. She then untied her hair, tied it into a ponytail, turned around, and shook her head a couple of times with her head down.

"You're done shaking!"

"This is a smooth ponytail that you'll never have in your life."

Wu Xian snorted coldly.

"Ha, who cares?"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the relatives began to talk. Both sides had information that the other did not have. After the exchange, everyone had a new understanding of the situation of this blessed land.

Wan Jue pointed to a corner of the room, where a blood-stained cloth was covered, with unsettling runes on it.

"Under that cloth must be the manager of the Mystery Tower. Since she is immortal, how did you deal with her?"

Du E smiled mysteriously: "Of course, I'll draw circles to curse her."

Upon entering this blessed land, Du E received three blessings. The first two were the [Sacred Body of Cursing], which made it easier to acquire curse abilities, and the [Curse-Born Evil Fire], which granted evil fire after casting curses. The last blessing was [Misfortunes Never Come Alone]!
Any curse released by Du E will take effect twice!

The girl who manages the mystery building is immortal, but the curse from before still exists after she is resurrected. When she has enough curses, she will be killed by the curses the moment she is resurrected, thus temporarily breaking her immortality.

But the curse has a time limit. When the energy of the curse cast by Du E is exhausted, the girl will still wake up, but by then, this blessed land will have long since ended.

After understanding the situation, everyone should get down to business.

The condition for leaving the blessed land is to destroy the root of the nightmare, and that root is now in the arms of the Sleeping Maiden.

Wanjue risked his life again to conduct a test for everyone.

As a result, as long as the Sleeping Woman still holds onto the eye, they are unable to destroy it.

But getting the sleeping woman to open her eyes is also very simple; just grant her a title!

Ling Ji pulled the imperial edict from her clothes, unfolded it, and asked the others, "How should this thing be used? Should it be stuck to her body, covered like a blanket, or recited once?"

Han Shuihe rubbed her hands together: "Why don't we try them all?"

Just as everyone was studying how to use it, the ceiling of the room suddenly shone brightly, and the phantom of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden appeared. The decree floated to the Mystic Maiden's hand and was then sent out by her, turning into golden light spots that landed on the sleeping maiden.

Since everyone entered the blessed land, the sleeping maiden, who had been fast asleep, finally opened her eyes.

The evil aura on the sleeping woman was purified, her long, smooth hair was tied up, and a divine light like floating mist floated behind her head. Her blood-red dress turned into a blue and white gauze dress, and her shawl fluttered like wisps of cold smoke. The bright red skirt, like the flowers of the other shore, also turned into a flowing blue river.

At this moment, she was no longer the evil sleeping woman.

Instead, they were officially appointed as immortals and gods by the Heavenly Official Emperor.

Floating Light and Dreamy Fairy!

The relatives looked at the sleeping woman with admiration.

This was the first time they had seen immortals and gods up close. Even Ling Ji, who was always very confident in her looks, felt ashamed of herself when she saw Mian Nu.

But the first thing the Sleeping Woman said was, "You shouldn't have come looking for me. He's already come in with you, and now everything is beyond repair!"
