System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Soon, Sanyuan and Bai Luoyu emerged from the soaring power of the vow.

They were completely bathed in the light of the heroes' monument.

Chen Xuan personally used the souls and hair of the two people, along with the karma from three lifetimes, to gently refine a red thread, and then used this red thread to link their arms together.

"In this way, no matter how many times you are reincarnated, you will meet in the mortal world as fate dictates, and grow old together."

Upon hearing this, Sanyuan and Bai Luoyu were so grateful that they immediately wanted to kneel down to express their thanks.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan stopped the two. He then personally used a Taoist technique that connected Yin and Yang to send them to the underworld.

Of course, since there is no signal in the underworld, the million viewers in the live stream will not be able to see what happens next.

The sky here is gray and deathly still.

On a main road, there were shops on both sides. There were many pedestrians on the road, all of them with blank expressions and dull eyes. They just walked forward with their heads down, not knowing where they were going.

After Chen Xuan led the two of them onto this street.

The different lights and auras emanating from the three people immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding wandering ghosts and spirits.

If Sanyuan and Bai Luoyu were surrounded by a hazy, milky-white light, it would inspire longing and a desire to get closer.

The golden light of merit emanating from Chen Xuan caused the surrounding wandering souls to kneel and kowtow.

Ignoring the numerous wandering souls, Chen Xuan pulled the two of them and walked straight ahead.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a huge portal appeared at the end of the road, where a large, dark mass of underworld messengers, including Ox-Head and Horse-Face, had been waiting for a long time.

"How dare you! You are not a wandering spirit, yet you dare to trespass into the underworld!"

"Brother Horse-Face, Brother Ox-Head, it's him! He's the one who interfered with our work and even hit us!"

Among the group of Yin soldiers, two Yin messengers who looked relatively familiar shouted loudly when they saw Chen Xuan and his companions appear, as if they had found a backer and wanted to regain their lost face.

However, the two underworld officials and the ghost soldiers were too weak to understand what the light on Chen Xuan and the other two represented.

Ox-Head and Horse-Face, however, were different. Upon seeing the three-zhang-long golden light of merit on Chen Xuan's body, they were also greatly alarmed. They kicked the two Yin messengers who were stirring up trouble aside, and then led a group of Yin soldiers to rush forward, bowing with extreme humility and respect.

"I hope you will forgive me for not being able to greet the immortal in advance."

"Please come in, sir."

Chen Xuan thought he was about to have a fight, but he didn't expect that there would be such insight among the underworld officials.

Chen Xuan was naturally happy that things could be done smoothly without fighting.

"I don't care if you're weak. What? Ever since the mortals of the human realm started to question the divine and immortal paths and stopped providing them with the power of faith, your strength has been declining?"

Logically speaking, even if one has some strength, it would be very difficult to lead a group of people into the underworld.

You should know that Ox-Head and Horse-Face are considered to be of medium strength in the underworld, so how could this be?

Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, both Ox-Head and Horse-Face nodded with wry smiles.

"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and mortals no longer believe in the immortal path. They have abandoned their faith and become extremely selfish. This has indeed had a great impact on us. In the past thirty years, hell has been full eighteen times. The workload of the underworld officials is huge, and there is a serious shortage of manpower."

"Heh, is this why so many evil spirits and monsters have been left undiscovered in the mortal realm?"

Seeing Chen Xuan raise his question, Horse-Face nodded and smiled apologetically, explaining, "We can't even catch all the spirits on the roster, let alone those lonely, ghostly, and malevolent ones. We simply don't have enough manpower to spare."

Chen Xuan frowned. "Where are the Ten Kings of Hell? Take me to see them."

Upon hearing this, Niu Tou looked at Chen Xuan with a puzzled expression, "Immortal, don't you know about that matter?"

Chen Xuan frowned and asked, "What is it? I don't know."

Sanyuan seemed to know something vaguely, but it was clearly only superficial. After hesitating, he didn't tell Chen Xuan and decided to listen to what Niu Tou had to say.

"Uh, this..."

"What, are you afraid of revealing heavenly secrets?" Chen Xuan shouted at the leader, Ox-Head and Horse-Face. "The City God statue has been occupied by a group of evil spirits, who are deceiving the world and stealing incense offerings from mortals. Vengeful ghosts are rampaging in the city and harming mortals. What's going on? Tell me what's going on."
