Chapter 378 The Divine Messenger Attacks
buzz~
Wang Taihong, who was watering his vegetable patch in the yard, took out his phone and answered the call as soon as he saw the caller ID.

"how's it going?"

"Great Guide, the situation has changed."

Hearing Fu Yuexia's words over the microphone, Wang Taihong straightened up.

After the other person finished speaking, Wang Taihong asked a question: "Are you being controlled by the Ghost Heart?"

"Yes, it was Ghost Slave who asked me to contact you. But what I said about the Ghost Slave organization and that person is true. The Ghost Slave organization is willing to take the lead, but they need the cooperation of the Divine Messenger."

Wang Taihong walked out of the vegetable garden and sat down on a chair in the yard.

"Tell me, how do we need to cooperate?"

"The ghost servant and the divine messenger share the same idea: to deal with the underworld first. The ghost servant needs our divine messengers to capture the underworld's officials and find out where the underworld is located."

Wang Taihong took a sip of tea.

"Okay, is there any more?"

"Yes, the Ghost Slave requires the Divine Messenger to prepare information on all the adults who have had contact with the Divine Messenger, along with the corresponding methods of contact."

Wang Taihong paused for a moment.

"What does that master of the Ghost Slave want to do?"

"That gentleman only said that he wanted to talk to the other gentlemen."

Hearing Fu Yuexia's words, Wang Taihong's eyes narrowed slightly.

"What if the messenger of the gods is unwilling?"

“Great Guide, it would be best to agree to this. That person’s power is stronger than any other person we have ever encountered after their descent. In fact, I think that person might be… their true form descending.”

Wang Taihong was silent for a moment, then said, "Understood. The divine envoy is willing to cooperate. I will have someone deliver the information about those lords to them after the Underworld is destroyed."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Taihong frowned.

He hadn't expected Fu Yuexia to be controlled by Guixin. Given Fu Yuexia's abilities, it would be difficult for the leader of Guixin's lineage to control her.

However, if it were Old Ancestor Ghost Heart personally taking action, then that would indeed be possible.

However, Fu Yuexia carries the adults' paper scissors, so even if she encounters the Ghost Heart Ancestor, she will have room to resist.

But no matter what you say, the matter is already settled.

Wang Taihong knew that Fu Yuexia's tone seemed normal just now, but he knew that Fu Yuexia was no longer the Fu Yuexia who was loyal to the divine messenger.

"The Lord of Ghost Slaves..."

Wang Taihong murmured.

"Whether it's true or false, we'll find out by having a go at the underworld."

Subsequently, Wang Taihong began contacting the messengers of the gods and started taking action.

……

Yoshipin City.

Wang Xinghui had just returned home from outside.

The moment he stepped into the house, the gloom on his face vanished completely.

"Beep beep, you're back."

A tiny little one rushed out of the room, ran straight to Wang Xinghui's legs, buried his head in them, and looked up at Wang Xinghui with bright, sparkling eyes.

Wang Xinghui chuckled and picked the little guy up from the ground.

"Dad's pants are dirty. You play with Mom for a while while Dad goes to change his clothes."

"Okay, beep beep!"

Watching the little guy trot off to the kitchen and chatter away to his wife, Wang Xinghui's weariness vanished.

After changing his clothes and washing up, Wang Xinghui sat on the sofa and watched his daughter playing with building blocks on the living room floor. His mood gradually returned to normal.

These days, almost every time he returns after resolving a paranormal incident, the gloom in his heart is healed by his family.

This kind of life is already very good.

He still feels lingering fear when he recalls the incident two months ago when he took his wife and daughter on a trip and lost his daughter due to a moment of carelessness.

At that time, he was anxious every day, going back and forth between scenic spots, police stations, and various locations where people gathered because of missing person notices.

Exhausted from his frantic search, he couldn't find his daughter even after half a month.

He learned from the anti-trafficking office that the chances of finding someone like him, who had been searching for half a month without success, were very slim.

But how could he give up?
His wife was in tears and was hospitalized due to excessive grief. If he gave up now, their daughter would never be found again.

He had his parents and sister take turns caring for his wife, while he continued searching for his daughter.

He searched for a whole month, and was exhausted both physically and mentally, but there was still no news of his daughter.

Just when he was in despair, he met a man named Kong Yi.

That was someone he met in the group. At the time, Kong Yi said in the group that he had a way to help find the child.

Many people in the group, including Wang Xinghui, inquired about the specifics.

When they learned it was a method similar to 'fortune telling', everyone was disappointed.

But Wang Xinghui had no other choice, so he approached Kong Yi.

Wang Xinghui knew that he was only looking for Kong Yi to keep himself busy, because once he was idle, he would think of his daughter and his wife.

As for whether Kong Yi is a fraud, he doesn't care.

What he didn't expect was that after he met an old man with Kong Yi, the next day, he followed the old man's directions and went to a small town near the tourist attraction they had visited.

He hadn't said anything to the other person, but they led him directly to that place.

This shocked Wang Xinghui, but also filled him with excitement.

Then, Wang Xinghui found his daughter, the one who had been locked in the basement by the two elderly people.

Upon first seeing his daughter, Wang Xinghui felt nothing but excitement and joy at having her back, and also anger.

Although his daughter was not abused, the act of abduction made him want to beat the elderly couple to death on the spot.

But seeing their empty eyes and the way they looked at his daughter, Wang Xinghui ultimately just called the police.

Since then, Wang Xinghui has felt gratitude and awe towards Kong Yi and the old man behind Kong Yi, and has joined Kong Yi and the old man's team to fight human trafficking.

Kong Yi thought that was all there was to the matter.

But then Kong Yi asked him if he wanted to join their organization.

Wang Xinghui assumed it was an anti-trafficking organization and agreed without thinking.

But after he realized what had happened and, in a daze, dealt with a ghost, he had transformed into a ghost messenger.

Now, he's someone even the Bureau of Polls has to treat with caution.

This series of experiences took only two or three months, but Wang Xinghui felt as if a long time had passed.

After finishing his meal, Wang Xinghui went to the study alone and placed the cloth dog on the table.

"My lord, please help me check my karmic debts."

Immediately, a dialog box appeared on his computer screen.

"Nine days: The amount of Yin Virtue Points is 1,323."

Looking at this karmic debt, Wang Xinghui did some calculations.

He's already redeemed stickers for his wife and kids, but besides them, he also needs to get his parents, sister, wife's parents, and brother included. Otherwise, if he only sends his wife and kids over, they'll be too lonely.

Even with the raven feather raincoat, he was still not very fast at clearing out the ghosts during this period.

The reason is that he doesn't want to be away from his wife and children for too long, and he spends most of his time at home with them.

Fortunately, he now occasionally takes on assignments from the Bureau of Investigation, doesn't have to go to work, and has no financial problems.

“1,323 points. Even if we follow Elder Shen’s advice, we can only bring in seven people. That’s far from enough.”

Wang Xinghui frowned.

Turning his head, he said to the little cloth dog on the table, "Master Xingxing, please connect me to the anti-trafficking office's channel."

A glint flashed in the dog's eyes, and the chat box transformed into a group chat.

Before Wang Xinghui could speak, he saw someone sending a message in the group. He scrolled up and read the full content of the message.

"Kong Yi: Everyone, Elder Shen, myself, Wan Bin, and Su Yongliang have already moved into the Sanshan camp with our families. Currently, there are more than 30 of us in the Sanshan camp. In addition, there are relatives brought to the Sanshan camp by other underworld officials. Now, apart from the underworld officials, there are about 50 people in the Sanshan camp. At the same time, 15 houses in the Sanshan camp have been rented out!"

Upon seeing this news, Wang Xinghui's eyes lit up.

In this way, there's no need to worry about sending your wife and children there to be lonely.

Wang Xinghui continued reading.

Kong Yi: I've looked at it. The Sanshan settlement isn't very big, with only about a hundred households in total. It's foreseeable that there will be fewer and fewer houses in the Sanshan settlement in the future. If we don't hurry, the twelve of us from the anti-trafficking office may not be able to live together. Even worse, you may have to sleep on the floor in the Sanshan settlement.

"Xu Ri: Brother Kong, how come you guys have so many Yin Virtue Points? I've been working my ass off these past few days and I only have two thousand. It'll probably take another month or two before I can bring that whole family to the Three Mountains camp!"

"Kong Yi: @Xuri, don't think about bringing everyone in at once. I've only brought my family and both sets of parents. I haven't brought any other relatives yet. Let's ensure the safety of some people first, and then we'll figure out how to continue accumulating good karma."

"Kong Yi: Also, although we all have cloth dogs, you are currently in the mortal world. When the local government issues temporary tasks, you probably won't be able to make it in time. Last time, for the collection task, I only managed to gather five sets of materials before the task was completed by other underworld officials, which was a complete waste of stickers."

Wu Liang: Brother Kong is right. Unless you have accumulated a stable income from good deeds in the mortal world, I suggest you consider doing the "cleaning up the underworld area" mission. After all this time, I'm sure you all have one or two underworld general-level protective items by now, right?

Cleanse the underworld?

Wang Xinghui remembered that mission, which required a large number of people, but there was also an alternative condition: a Yin-Hero level talisman!

However, because he had to take care of his wife and daughter, he never even considered doing that mission.

However, if you want to quickly accumulate good karma, that quest seems to be the best choice.

When someone brought up the topic, Wang Xinghui perked up.

"Rising Sun: My Soul-Binding Rope has reached the Yin General level. Now, when dealing with those vengeful ghosts and wandering spirits, they basically die within ten seconds of being bound."

Kong Yi: Regarding the task of cleaning up the underworld area, I saw that some underworld officials are already doing it. After talking to them, they said that it was easy at first, but now it's a bit difficult to get in.

Kong Yi: That being said, I think they're holding back. If you're interested, we can take a headcount and see if we can gather more people before we go.

Wu Liang: Count me in. I'll move my family to the Sanshan base first, as Brother Kong said! It's slow to earn good karma in the mortal world, and I always have to worry about my family's safety every time I go out. Daxia is getting more and more dangerous now, so it's safer to go to the Sanshan base.

"Rising Sun: Count me in too."

Next, Wang Xinghui saw that four people had replied to Kong Yi, saying they wanted to do the group task together.

Wang Xinghui calculated that apart from Old Shen, Kong Yi, Wan Bin, and Su Yongliang would definitely be going, making a total of seven people including these four!
A team of seven is already quite strong.

Immediately, Wang Xinghui also sent a message.

"Starshine: Count me in too. My Candle Night Stone Town has reached the Yin General level, and the Soul Binding Rope will be ready soon too."

Kong Yi: Received. Wait a little longer, some people may not have seen the message yet. I will make arrangements later.

Wang Xinghui breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Kong Yi's reply.

After thinking about it, Wang Xinghui decided to follow Kong Yi's advice and bring his wife and children over first.

If it were just the two of them, they would probably feel a little lonely.

Wang Xinghui plans to visit his parents tomorrow. Even if they disagree, he has to agree!

The Sanshan garrison is no longer the lifeless place it once was. Now, if we go there, my parents won't get sick from being cooped up.

As for my sister and father-in-law's family, we'll wait and see.

Thinking this, Wang Xinghui browsed the forum for a while longer before getting up to head to the bedroom.

But just then, the cloth dog on the table suddenly transformed into a large black dog, jumped off the table, and growled threateningly at the study door.

Wang Xinghui was taken aback and turned to look at the study door.

A fire was flickering beneath the crack in the door.

Wang Xinghui recognized that firelight; it was from Zhuyeshi Town!

Has Candlestone Town been activated?

Wang Xinghui's expression changed, and he covered his entire body with a raven feather raincoat, rushing directly towards the study door.

But before he could open the door, it was smashed open with a loud bang.

An object the size of a basketball smashed through the door and headed straight for Wang Xinghui's chest.

Judging from the sound of that thing cutting through the air.

If you were hit by that, your ribs would be completely broken!

With a whoosh, Wang Xinghui scattered and transformed into more than a dozen crows.

Two of the crows were unable to dodge the attack and were hit, disintegrating into smoke. The remaining crows then regrouped into Wang Xinghui in the surrounding area.

Turning his head, Wang Xinghui looked at the object that had been thrown at him.

After seeing it clearly, his expression, hidden beneath the raven feather raincoat, turned rather unpleasant.

That thing was none other than his only Yin-Marshal level talisman, the Candle Night Stone Talisman!
However, the rooster in Stone Town at this time had lost its head.

"Heh, things from the underworld don't look that great."

A disheveled, muscular man, shirtless, walked in from the study doorway with his head down.

"Muscle King, don't let things go wrong. The people from the Underworld are not easy to deal with."

A woman's hand reached out from one side of Muscleman, pressed down on his thick arm, and pushed him to the side.

Although Muscle King was dissatisfied, he still gave up his position, revealing the woman behind him, and... the other two women on either side of her.

"Papa... Waaah..."

"husband……"

Looking at his wife and daughter, Wang Xinghui roared and swung the Soul-Binding Ropes on his arms at the other party. The black dog that had been standing next to him also pounced on the woman.

But what happened next made Wang Xinghui's face turn ugly.

The two Soul-Binding Ropes were swung at Muscle Tyrant, but they fell to the ground like two ordinary ropes, having no effect whatsoever.

The cloth dog, which was only at the level of a ghost messenger, was grabbed by the head with one hand and the hind leg with the other, and torn in two, turning into rags that fell to the ground.

Muscle Master bent down and took the two Soul-Binding Ropes on the ground in his hands.

With just one exertion, the Soul-Binding Rope snapped.

After he finished, he grinned and chuckled.

"I already said, the underworld isn't all that great."

The woman beside her laughed:
"For the first time, I feel that it's a good thing that there are Yang cultivators among the divine messengers. If I had known, I would have asked the Grand Guide to take in more Yang cultivators."

P.S.: I won't post the next chapter yet. I'll revise it and post it when I get back tomorrow, so I won't have to ask for leave tomorrow.
