"Why is the glow pink? Could it be that there will be another female Nether King?"

As Qian Feng fell into deep thought, the butler of the Qian Mansion hurriedly approached him, bowing deeply as he said, "Master, King Wanfa has just left the city with his people in a rush. It seems they are embarking on a long journey."

"Oh?" Qian Feng lowered his head, his eyes, initially cloudy, now turned somber, "Could it be that he personally requested the Ghost King to come out of seclusion? I find something odd about this."

"I've already sent our 'Spirit Eye Bird' to follow them," the butler said.

"Hmm," Qian Feng nodded slightly, "Has there been any new developments with the Zhao Family lately?"

"None!" the butler shook his head, "However, it seems he has made two trips to the Eighteen Levels of Hell this month."

"Two trips!" Qian Feng's tone was one of utter surprise. Considering that Zhao Chong had already met Ye Yuqiao, the Fourth Generation Underworld King, in the mortal world, his monthly visits to the Eighteen Levels of Hell to mourn for Yuqiao should just be a smokescreen. In that case, why would he make an additional trip to the Eighteen Levels of Hell, unless there was someone else there.

After pondering for a while, Qian Feng came back to his senses and said to the butler, "If there's nothing else, you may leave. I'm going to my room to rest."

After he spoke, Qian Feng slowly returned to his room from the courtyard.

Once he saw the butler walk away, Qian Feng took out a silk scarf from his bosom, laid it on the table, and unfolded it, revealing a tuft of black hair inside.

He then closed his eyes, leaned in to smell the tuft of hair, looking utterly intoxicated.

A long while later, he opened his eyes, lifted his head and leaned back slightly, murmuring to himself, "You may soon have a granddaughter. Rest assured, I will definitely lend them a helping hand."

...

The night was deep.

In D City, within a hotel room, Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao lay on the bed, tightly embracing each other.

Chen Hao was still basking in the joy of receiving applause from over three hundred onmyoji earlier that day. It was a profound affirmation and recognition for him.

At the same time, Chen Hao was filled with anticipation, looking forward to the future that belonged to the onmyoji.

"Boyfriend, are you happy?" Ye Yuqiao asked quietly.

Chen Hao rolled over halfway, then brought his head close to Ye Yuqiao's eyes, smiling, "Of course I'm happy. I feel a strong sense of achievement. But for me, now is not the time to be happy. The real moment of happiness will come when we defeat the Ghost King, restore order to the Netherworld, and then fulfill our eternal promise."

Ye Yuqiao raised her hand to hook Chen Hao's neck, her voice becoming very light, "By then, it will probably be the happiest time for me too."

The two looked at each other, smiling faintly.

Just at that moment, a strong surge of Yin Qi approached.

Ye Yuqiao immediately opened her eyes, her eyes shining with a sharp light, "It's Zhao Chong!"

"Zhao Chong!" Chen Hao gritted his teeth, thinking why Zhao Chong would choose this time of all times to come.

"Silly!" Ye Yuqiao took the initiative to lean in and kissed Chen Hao, "If he had come later, it would have been too late."

"Knock, knock, knock!" At this moment, a knocking sound came from the door.

After sighing, Chen Hao reluctantly went to open the door, only to see a frowning Zhao Chong standing at the door.

"Handsome and rich, I'm surprised you still knock on doors," Chen Hao said.

Zhao Chong's frown deepened, and he said coldly, "I wonder if Your Majesty is available to see me now. I have urgent news for you."

"Of course, come in," Chen Hao responded.

Once Zhao Chong entered, Ye Yuqiao had already tidied up her clothes and hair and was sitting in a chair.

"Zhao Chong!" Ye Yuqiao said to Zhao Chong with an awkward smile, "You're here."

"Your Majesty, I have urgent news I must tell you."

"What's the urgent news?"

Then, Zhao Chong told them about the omen of the new Nether King that appeared in the Netherworld earlier that day.

After hearing Zhao Chong's account, Ye Yuqiao's expression suddenly darkened. She thought that if a new Nether King was born, it meant that she would no longer return as the ruler of the Netherworld, signifying that if she and Chen Hao did not defeat the Ghost King and live in the painting, she ultimately could not fulfill her eternal promise with Chen Hao. And the new Nether King could be from any of the Eight Great Clans, or perhaps her Chen Hao.

"By the way, Your Majesty, the omen was pink," Zhao Chong added. Although there was no evidence to suggest that the pink omen meant the new Nether King would be female, from past occurrences, of the four Nether Kings, only Ye Yuqiao's omen was pink. Thus, Zhao Chong couldn't help but think that the new Nether King might be female.

"Pink!" Ye Yuqiao exclaimed in surprise, then looked at Chen Hao and muttered, "How could it be pink?"

"Yuqiao, what's wrong with pink? Isn't it pretty?" Chen Hao asked, his face full of confusion.

Ye Yuqiao shook her head thoughtfully, then turned to Zhao Chong and asked, "Who do you think it could be?"

Zhao Chong shook his head, but in his mind, he thought of the Eighteen Levels of Hell and the woman in the Purgatory Fire Pool.

Before long, Zhao Chong left.

"Yuqiao, what's different about this pink omen?" Chen Hao asked eagerly.

Ye Yuqiao looked at Chen Hao, and after a long while explained, "The appearance of a pink omen means that the new Nether King might be a woman."

"I see!" Chen Hao nodded, then with a smile said, "Does that mean the Ghost King will definitely be overthrown?"

"Yes!" Ye Yuqiao forced a smile, her heart filled with a vague worry that the outcome might be a tragic separation from Chen Hao, "A new Nether King will definitely be born, and moreover, my Chen Hao might also become the Nether King."

Chen Hao shook his head, laughed, and said, "I don't want to be any Nether King, I just want to be with you forever."

Seeing the hopeful look in Chen Hao's eyes, Ye Yuqiao's anxiety and unease grew, fearing that she wouldn't be able to fulfill that beautiful promise. She wasn't worried about her own life or death, but about what Chen Hao would do if she truly left.

Unable to hold back, a tear fell from her left eye.

"Yuqiao, what's wrong?" Chen Hao was startled.

Ye Yuqiao shook her head and then threw herself into Chen Hao's arms, saying, "Boyfriend, we will be together forever, okay, is that okay?"

"Yes, yes, definitely!" Chen Hao reassured her in a soft voice, feeling something amiss with the Ye Yuqiao in his arms at the moment.

...

The next day, in the morning.

As soon as it was light, Chen Hao received a call from Luo Luo. On the phone, Luo Luo asked Chen Hao and his group to come to the Yin Yang Master Association headquarters in East Country immediately, saying there was an urgent matter to discuss with Chen Hao.

So, half an hour later, Chen Hao, Ye Yuqiao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing arrived at the Yin Yang Master Association headquarters in East Country. Luo Luo, Zhang Chuiping, and Ren Deshan had already been waiting at the entrance for a long time.

"Chen Hao, come quickly, we have something to show you!" Luo Luo said with a smile.

Two minutes later, they came to a vacant lot at the headquarters of the Yin Yang Master Association.

"Chen Hao, we have a gift for you!" Luo Luo said.

"A gift?" Chen Hao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing looked at each other, all filled with anticipation.

Half a minute later, amid the anticipation, a brand new black van slowly drove up in front of them. The van had "Exorcism Special Vehicle" sprayed in red paint.

When the van stopped, the driver inside smiled and waved at them, signaling them to come over and take a look.

Eagerly, Xie Xiaofeng and Tang Jing approached.

Just as Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao were about to go forward, Luo Luo suddenly grabbed his hand and said, "Chen Hao, you've done so much for everyone, and we are all very grateful. After you left yesterday afternoon, we discussed how to repay you. Since your car was blown up not long ago, we decided to buy you a new van and spray the symbolic 'Exorcism Special Vehicle' on it, so this car can accompany you on your nationwide journey of demon hunting!"

"Sister Luo, we really like this gift!"

"Chen Hao, Yuqiao, come over here and take a look!" At this moment, Tang Jing waved at Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao.

Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao approached, and saw on the other side of the van's body, the words "Safe Travels" sprayed in yellow paint, and around it were the names of three hundred closely packed individuals. These were the names of the attendees of the Yin Yang Master Conference in East Country, expressing their blessings for Chen Hao and his group.

Upon seeing this, Chen Hao was deeply moved, and he shouted to Luo Luo, "Sister Luo, we've received everyone's blessings, remember to thank everyone for us!"

...

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

It was time to part again.

Under the watchful eyes of over three hundred Yin Yang Masters, with everyone's full blessings, Chen Hao and his party slowly drove off in the brand new Exorcism Special Vehicle from D City to continue their journey of demon exorcism.

Before leaving, Zhang Chuiping, the newly appointed president of the Yin Yang Master Association, bestowed upon Chen Hao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing the title of "Permanent Honorary Director" of the Yin Yang Master Association of East Country. What Luo Luo gave to Chen Hao and his group was her reluctant tears.

After leaving the urban area of D City and four hours later, Chen Hao and his group arrived at Rainbow Town, located to the southwest of King Mieji's estate on the surface.

Not long ago, a heavy rain had just fallen on Rainbow Town.

"Just ahead is Rainbow Town!" Xie Xiaofeng said, his face full of excitement because he was driving a new car.

"Do you think it's easier to see rainbows in Rainbow Town?" Tang Jing asked.

A few minutes later, as the Exorcism Special Vehicle crossed a large bridge over a hundred meters long in the town,

"Look, a rainbow!" Tang Jing exclaimed excitedly, pointing outside the window.

The other three in the vehicle looked in the direction Tang Jing was pointing, and just then a person happened to jump off the bridge...
