Chapter 314: Chapter 313: This King Was Wrong
King Qin Guang became increasingly annoyed as he pondered the decline of Spiritual Qi and how the staff from the Underworld seldom ventured above. Perhaps the mortals’ reverence for them had waned too much.
Su Mianmian ignored him, and he could excuse that as the fearlessness of youth, but how could this mortal, Ding Song, be so bold?
Seeing King Yama puff up his cheeks and glower, Ding Song got so scared that he hid behind Cui Yu.
He truly hadn’t expected a fairy’s ears to be so sharp; merely muttering under his breath, he was overheard.
After hiding, Ding Song saw Mianmian frowning and looking annoyed, which made him frown as well.
It seemed that his overtime work these past two days had made him slip into his role too quickly, forgetting the very nature of his visit to the Underworld. His original purpose was to repay Little Auntie Mianmian’s kindness, yet now he started to see himself as an actual employee of the Underworld?
How could this be!
This attitude of King Yama towards Little Auntie — he should be standing in front of her, not cowardly hiding himself!
Suddenly seeing things clearly, Ding Song quickly moved to Mianmian’s side and offered a sincere apology, "Little Auntie, I apologize. I wasn’t in the right frame of mind just now."
At the moment, Mianmian was actually contemplating whether to continue watching the real-life record of "Sun Wukong" or to punch this annoying disturbance, who she didn’t know from which hall of the Underworld.
Suddenly hearing Ding Song’s apology, she looked at him, perplexed, "Why are you apologizing? It’s not like you were the one talking loudly by Mianmian’s ear."
Ding Song’s heart shuddered: Worthy of Little Auntie, treating even King Yama with the same indifference.
But as someone saved by Mianmian, he had to finish what he had to say, "Little Auntie, I apologize because when King Yama was talking loudly by your ear, I didn’t block it for you. It won’t happen again next time."
Mianmian suddenly understood what Ding Song meant by "not in the right frame of mind" and quickly waved her hand, "It’s all right. He is King Yama, after all. Mianmian understands."
Upon hearing this, King Qin Guang flung his sleeve, eyes bulging as he said fiercely, "You know I am King Yama, and yet you dare ignore me?"
Hearing King Qin Guang’s question, Mianmian turned to the Three Life Stone and said, "You wait here for a moment, Mianmian will come back to watch you later."
Having said this, Mianmian stood up from the ground and brushed non-existent dust from her little backside.
King Qin Guang saw that when Mianmian stood up, she was only so tall, not even as high as his knee, and suddenly felt maybe he had indeed been a bit unfair. Moreover, looking at Little Bun’s tiny arms and legs and his round, smooth head, he blinked earnestly while brushing off the dust, which made the king’s heart flutter.
This child, isn’t he rather lovable? It’s just that his personality is poor, showing no respect at all!
As King Qin Guang was thinking, he saw Little Bun, after patting off the dust, take out a small mirror and start tidying up her clothes.
At that moment, the Three Life Stone suddenly began to glow.
Its glittering light caught the attention of everyone present.
Mianmian was no exception.
When she looked over, she unexpectedly discovered that the image in the Three Life Stone had changed to her own reflection, mirroring her actions just like looking in a mirror.
Could the Three Life Stone also be used as a mirror?
Mianmian put away the small mirror and, after straightening her slightly disheveled clothing and thanking the stone, she took out her mother’s Flying Carpet Talisman.
The little one stepped onto it, raising herself to the same height as King Qin Guang.
You see, in order to project his majesty while interrogating wicked ghosts, King Qin Guang deliberately made himself two and a half meters tall.
He saw Mianmian flying at the level of his face, and his brows furrowed, "You little girl, how dare you use a talisman to make yourself as tall as this king? Get down!!"
As he spoke, King Qin Guang raised his hand, and the talisman was burned to a crisp by the Yin Fire.
Seeing Mianmian about to fall, Ding Song reached out to help, and Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao also wanted to rush over, but were stopped by Cui Yu.
When Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao saw Mianmian summon a crystal-clear sword in an instant and stood on it without falling to the ground, they were relieved.
Zhong Kui saw his colleagues were so worried about Mianmian, and his tiger-like eyes glared wide, "Why are you worried about the little girl? You should worry about our King Yama instead."
King Qin Guang was actually preparing magic to catch Mianmian, but when he saw Mianmian step onto the Flying Sword, he put away the magic. Hearing his subordinate mocking him, he turned his head and glared at Zhong Kui.
But unexpectedly, Zhong Kui glared back with wide eyes.
He had always been unable to tolerate Zhong Kui’s stubbornness, but after all, Zhong Kui had been enfeoffed as a Death God based on his abilities. Apart from being hot-tempered, there were no other issues, and even King Yama couldn’t punish his subordinates without good reason, so he could only do his best to ignore it.
Zhong Kui saw King Yama continuously glaring at him, his face as rigid as a board.
He was right!
Mianmian was a clever little girl - she was nice to those who were good to her and absolutely unafraid of those who weren’t nice and tried to bully her, she was someone who didn’t like to be at a disadvantage. So what of King Yama? Probably even the Jade Emperor would get taught a lesson if he unjustly bullied a child for no reason!
"Uncle Zhong, stop looking at him, Mianmian has something to discuss with him."
Mianmian’s feisty little voice broke the stare-off between Zhong Kui and King Qin Guang.
King Qin Guang redirected his gaze onto Mianmian, his eyebrows upside down, "You little imp, flying so high and looking at this king, what are you trying to do?"
Mianmian deliberately had the Flying Sword rise a little higher, crossing her small arms and lifting her chin, her chubby little face serious, "I want to ’talk sense’ to you."
King Qin Guang, "Talk sense? What sense do you want to talk to this king about?"
Mianmian slowly enunciated every word, "Just now you were speaking so loudly near Mianmian’s ear, saying Mianmian didn’t listen to you. But Mianmian didn’t deliberately ignore you, you clearly saw Mianmian paying respects to you, yet you deliberately didn’t speak to Mianmian and kept her from standing up, instead going to speak to Ding Song; you were the one who started ignoring Mianmian! Mianmian didn’t impolitely speak loudly near your ear! So you owe Mianmian an apology!"
With such a long speech, logical and well-founded, King Qin Guang was momentarily speechless.
This kind of petty tactic was a method for the higher-ups to put pressure on the lower ones, to remind them of their place. But with Mianmian’s straightforward way of addressing the issue, it put the onus back on him.
It wasn’t that, within the Underworld, he was the ruler of one of the halls, with shared sovereignty with the other nine halls. Beyond their roles, they all had the same rights.
The entire Underworld listened to him; why should he be led by the nose by a little baby?
"This king, as the master of one of the Underworld’s halls, has never apologized to anyone in the Underworld!" King Qin Guang grandly stood with his hands behind his back, his headdress’s tassels swaying, looking all imposing and majestic.
But just at this moment, King Qin Guang’s voice suddenly burst out from the side: "Oh my ancestors, this king is also wrong, so sorry, so very sorry, please don’t yank, stop yanking!"
All those present turned towards the source of the voice, each with a different expression on their face.
Inside the Three Life Stone, the scene currently being played was "The Monkey King wreaks havoc in the Underworld."
The ten men seated with diadems, were each begging for mercy on their knees to a monkey clad in armor. In the monkey’s hand was the Golden Hoop Stick, and he laughed, "Still dare to recklessly hook your Grandpa Sun’s soul now, hm?"
The one among them who kept apologizing was undoubtedly King Qin Guang.
The face-slap came so swiftly, the scene fell into a stunned silence!
