Although Chen Yu also admitted that her grandfather was a bad old man, she couldn’t allow others to berate him. When she heard Black and White Impermanence’s scolding, her cheeks immediately puffed up in anger. She said, “My grandfather is only 70 years old, but who knows how many thousands of years old you are? What qualification do you have to say that my grandfather is a bad old bastard? You guys dress so young. You’re the ones pretending to be young.”

“…” Black and White Impermanence exchanged glances. As expected, she was from the Luoshan Sect, no doubt about it.

“Shishi…” Lou Ming was taken aback when Chen Yu quarreled with Black and White Impermanence. They were in the Underworld, and Black and White Impermanence were well-known supernatural beings for a long time. Starting a fight with them was asking for a beating.

In fear that Chen Yu would suffer, Lou Ming hurriedly walked forward, blocked her behind him without a trace, and then apologized to Black and White Impermanence, “Venerable Hei, Venerable Bai, Shishi is quick-tempered, but she meant no harm. I hope Your Excellencies will excuse her.”

“Lou Ming?” Black Impermanence asked White Impermanence, “He’s named Lou Ming in this life, right?”

“Yes,” White Impermanence replied.

“It’s really hard to recognize him since he suddenly lost his evil qi.”

“You said it.”

Isn’t it a little weird for you guys to talk about the party involved right in front of him?

Fortunately, the two didn’t chat for too long. Black Impermanence then asked Lou Ming, “Are you here to find Elder Wu or Mingwang?”

What do you mean? Lou Ming was rendered speechless by his unexpected question. It’s reasonable to say he was here to find Elder Wu. Why did Black and White Impermanence think he wanted to find Mingwang?

“We’re here to find grandpa and Mingwang, too,” Chen Yu answered.

“Heh, interesting.” Black Impermanence was excited, and gossiped with White Impermanence, “This disciple took a liking to someone’s apprentice, and her master fancies his master’s daughter. This generation is a bit messy ah.”

“It’s indeed messy,” White Impermanence nodded.

“What did you say?” Chen Yu was confused.

“You guys want to go to the Underworld, right?” Black Impermanence guessed.

“Yes,” Lou Ming replied.

“Do you want us to take you in?” White Impermanence also guessed.

“Yes.” Lou Ming bowed a bit. “I wonder if it’s convenient.”

“There’s no need for you to do that.” Black Impermanence said, “If you want to go, stand on the Naihe Bridge and shout twice. Mingwang will open the barrier for you.”

Black Impermanence’s instructions for the two stunned them. Chen Yu was completely baffled. Can Third Brother open the barrier with just two shouts?

Meanwhile, Lou Ming reacted after a moment of bafflement. Combined with what Black and White Impermanence said earlier, he already had a certain guess about Mingwang’s identity, although he found it a bit unbelievable.

“Thank you both.” Lou Ming thanked Black and White Impermanence after he figured things out.

“You’re welcome.” Black and White Impermanence had been polite to Lou Ming from the beginning to the end.

“Let’s go.” Lou Ming pulled Chen Yu and headed out.

“Third Brother?” After coming out of the tavern, Chen Yu looked in puzzlement at Lou Ming. Black and White Impermanence have not yet promised anything. Why did they come out?

“I probably know why Grandpa is looking for us.” If Mingwang was really the person he guessed, Lou Ming already knew of the possible plot development that would follow.

Thinking of the follow-up that would likely happen, Lou Ming was a bit teary-eyed. What the hell was this?

Despite Chen Yu’s confusion, she had complete trust in Lou Ming, so she just followed him and walked to the Naihe Bridge.

One River of Forgetfulness and the six karmic realms of reincarnation; the Naihe Bridge was divided into two directions, symbolizing the six karmic realms of reincarnation. Because Meng Po’s soup was still boiling after Elder Wu overturned it, the two did not see Meng Po on the bridge.

Lou Ming led Chen Yu and stood on the bridge. He looked at the transparent barrier on the other side of the river and exuded a pale golden soul power without warning.

“Third Brother?” Chen Yu glanced at Lou Ming in surprise. Didn’t she instruct Third Brother not to use his power at will before they came here? Why did he suddenly use his soul power?

The moment the pale golden soul power touched the barrier, a golden light suddenly lit up from the barrier, and finally formed a golden spiritual bridge spanning between the Forgotten River and the Underworld.

“What’s this?” Chen Yu looked at the golden bridge of light beneath her feet and stared in awe.

“Let’s go.” Lou Ming didn’t explain either. He took Chen Yu’s hand and lifted his legs onto the golden light bridge. Where the two passed, the golden light disappeared and finally stayed within the boundary of the Underworld.

Lou Ming did not stop. He followed the spiritual power perception all the way to Mingwang’s residence. The black iron door opened with a bang the moment Lou Ming approached. Lou Ming’s face twitched unnoticeably. He raised his legs and walked in. When they passed through the courtyard and entered the hall, he saw a familiar back.

“This disciple pays my respects to Master.” Lou Ming’s eyes trembled. When he figured out that the Underworld Lord was really his master, he was so excited that he almost shed tears.

Although Chen Yu was confused about the turn events, she also followed suit and paid her respects.

“Get up.” Mingwang turned around and looked at the disciple with mellow soul power but not the slightest trace of evil qi. The millenniums of reincarnation finally resolved it, then all his efforts were not in vain.

However… Why did he fall into this girl’s hands every single reincarnation???

Why is Third Brother’s master looking at me so strangely? Chen Yu blinked in confusion.

After the shock of the sudden meeting passed, Lou Ming began to catch up with his master.

“Master, how did you become the ruler of the Underworld?” In his impression, his master has always been indifferent to fame and fortune. Against all expectations, his master ran and became an official, and also became the ruler of the Underworld.

“It’s not all because of you.” Mingwang felt uncomfortable just thinking about what had been bothering him for millennia. 

“Me?” Lou Ming was surprised.

“You probably don’t know. The first time you were reincarnated after your death was a miserable one. You only lived for five years before ending up in the Underworld,” Mingwang narrated, “Thinking about it,  at that speed, even if you have reincarnated every five years, I don’t know how long it would have taken to get rid of the drought demon’s evil qi. I kept thinking about how to get you a good reincarnation. It so happened that there was a shortage of City Gods in the Underworld at that time, plus I had some merits, so I sought this position.”

“I originally just wanted to go through the back door and arrange somewhat better parents for you.” Speaking of being a City God: “As a result, I sat as a City God again and again and unknowingly got promoted and became the ruler of the Underworld.”

“…” Lou Ming was both touched and speechless, “It’s been hard on you, Master.”

“Don’t mention it!” Whom could he tell his millenniums of heartache?

Lou Ming wanted to say something else, but a sudden noise erupted outside. Afterward, a clear young voice shouted from outside, “Miaomiao, Miaomiao… Come out, listen to my explanation.”

“Who’s that?” Lou Ming looked at Mingwang in bafflement.

“Ignore him. It’s just a hateful kid, a toad wanting to eat swan meat,” Mingwang said. 

A toad wanting to eat swan meat; Lou Ming was flabbergasted. Xiang Nan seemed to have said that grandpa fell in love with Mingwang’ daughter. Could it be…

Before Lou Ming had time to think about it, he heard another shout from outside, “Miaomiao, when I gave you the Soul Summoning Bell, everything I said was sincere. I, Wu Li, can swear to God.”

Soul Summoning Bell? Wu Li? Chen Yu suddenly stood up from her seat: “Grandpa?”

Chen Yu was pleasantly surprised, and her body responded faster than her brain. She ran out, pushed the dark door open, and met a handsome, clear-eyed boy ecstatically.

Who’s this??

“Shishi, when did you get here?” Caught off guard by the sight of her granddaughter, Young Wu also froze.

“O-Old man?” Chen Yu was dumbfounded. This teenager’s silhouette indeed vaguely resembled her grandfather a bit.

“No…cough…” Young Wu reflexively wanted to protest her Old Man title, but when his granddaughter called him Old Man, he seemed a little powerless to refute.

“It’s really you, whoa. How did you become like this? What are you doing here? Who is Miaomiao?” Chen Yu shot him a series of questions.

“Ahem…” Young Wu reddened with embarrassment.

He has been doing silly things for a period and didn’t mind being seen, but when his granddaughter chanced upon it, even his iron-like face couldn’t really withstand it.
