Chapter 277 Chaos in the Underworld

Lu Ling'er left Ksitigarbha Hall, still filled with doubts about the complex rules of the Underworld. Everything here seemed far more intricate and complex than she had expected, and now she could only passively accept it. The work of the Underworld could not afford any slackness, and she had to adapt to this new role as quickly as possible.

Just as she was about to take a step to deal with the next matter, the Black and White Impermanence suddenly appeared in front of her.

"The King of Hell asks you to come over." Hei Wuchang looked at her with a serious expression.

"What's wrong?" Lu Linger's heart tightened. The summons of Hades was definitely not a trivial matter.

Bai Wuchang frowned and said, "There's been some trouble in the Underworld recently, and the repair work on the communication equipment has not been completed. As you know, the communication instruments of the entire Six Realms have problems."

Lu Linger was stunned for a moment: "Is it because of the Demon Realm?"

Hei Wuchang nodded, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes. "Indeed, the Demon Prince has gone to the human world for some reason. The communication equipment in the underworld was originally supposed to be repaired, but because of the Demon Prince's behavior, the entire repair process has been delayed. Now we are still unable to restore normal operations."

Lu Linger couldn't help but frown: "The prince of the demon world went to the human world? What on earth is he doing?"

Bai Wuchang smiled bitterly and said, "Who knows? He said he was looking for some 'little phoenix' and looked as anxious as if the world was about to end. Right now, the work in the underworld has almost come to a standstill, and the restoration progress has completely stopped."

"That's why Hades let us through." Hei Wuchang continued, "Hades hopes you can help in this process, try to control the situation and avoid more trouble."

Lu Linger nodded, but a wave of unease welled up in her heart. What was this "Phoenix" that the Demonic Prince was looking for? She couldn't imagine what this out-of-control situation would mean to the Underworld, but she knew that the Underworld needed her now.

Just as she was about to leave with the Black and White Impermanence, a familiar voice broke her thoughts.

"Come, come and drink Mengpo soup. You can forget all the pain after drinking the soup!" Mengpo's figure appeared at the end of the corridor. Her eyes were a little confused. She was holding a bowl of soup in her hand and walked straight towards Lu Linger.

"Oh, no..." Lu Linger quickly dodged to the side, but she could not escape Meng Po's shining eyes.

"Hey, Meng Po, is there nothing for me to do today?" Lu Ling'er was a bit amused. She still remembered the last time she was almost forced to drink that bowl of "forgettable" soup, and she almost lost her memory. It was a nightmare.

"No, you have to drink it to forget it. How can you leave without drinking it?" Meng Po still looked enthusiastic, completely unaware that she had started to have her old problem again.

Lu Linger dodged in panic, even running around the corridors of the underworld several times, but was finally forced into retreat by Meng Po. She cried out helplessly, "Why are you doing it again? I haven't done anything wrong, don't chase me to drink soup!"

At this moment, the Black and White Impermanence laughed out loud. Bai Wuchang patted Lu Linger's shoulder and said, "Your luck is incredible. The Underworld is so vast, and yet you happened to meet our Underworld's 'Alzheimer' Meng Po."

Hei Wuchang also looked gloating: "You have just started to adapt to the life in the underworld, and you have encountered such a 'special treatment'. From now on, she will be able to find you every day, haha."

"Enough! Can you two help me?" Lu Linger looked at the two of them angrily, thinking that she had just started to adapt to this new environment, so why did she encounter so many strange people and things.

Bai Wuchang smiled and waved his hands: "Sorry, Meng Po can't walk by herself, we can't help. She has an old illness, you have to carry it yourself." He shouted to Meng Po, "Meng Po, hurry up, don't let her suffer!"

Hei Wuchang also continued in a teasing tone, "However, you do have an advantage now. The transmission equipment and communication instruments of the Hades cannot be repaired, and the new Meng Po cannot take over for the time being. Therefore, Meng Po's mission can only be 'taken over' by you for the time being."

Lu Linger was speechless for a moment: "This is really... so unlucky."

Finally, after a while of "chasing", Meng Po seemed to have found another target and left. Lu Linger breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed her shoulders, and felt like she had escaped from a "life-chasing" situation.

"Okay, okay, let's go to Hades next." Bai Wuchang said with a smile and patted Lu Linger's shoulder.

Lu Ling'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and followed them toward the Pluto Palace. She still felt a little worried. While the work at the Underworld was busy, everything seemed to have come to a standstill due to the unintentional actions of the Demon Prince. She couldn't help but wonder what her connection was to this little phoenix, and why the Demon Prince's actions could affect the lifeblood of the Underworld so deeply.

As everything got back on track, Lu Linger knew that it might not be just a matter of working in the underworld, and more mysteries were waiting for her to solve.
