The water of the River of Oblivion (Wangchuan) still quietly flows. Lady Meng Po besides the Bridge of Forgetfulness still gave out soup like usual, but the various little spirits who were working on the side were a bit distracted. There were two little spirits that were even lazy and hid besides the Sansheng rock that came back as a relic. They were whispering and chatting.
The spirit with one leg worriedly said, "You speak, if that big devil came to underworld and we do not want then what to do. From now to later we have to serve him more ah, how can we live with that personality of easily angered, unpredictability, and desire to disperse the ghost souls when something happened of his…"
The spirit with fangs was selective of words in comforting, "No, our underworld is poor and dark. The big devil living here has no benefit ah. It's definite he will go right away. Speaking one step back, even if the big devil is currently staying here, it's okay. When he came to the underworld, did you noticed, this big devil ah…" The spirit with the fangs drew in front of the chest, "Is injured heavily. If he stayed here, the God of War Moxi will soon capture him."
"Has heard that previously, that devil has punctured Zhuxian Terrace. The billowing violating energies under the Zhuxian Terrance surfaced and caused chaos to the heavenly realm. Until now, has not become peaceful. Each day the God of War is busy due to that matter, how [will he] come to our underworld?"
"Before does not know, but you do not forget, auntie Sansheng came from our underworld. God of War is famous for loving his wife. How can [he] not worry for the hometown of hers?"
"Oh? There's also that matter?"
"Yes! Furthermore, auntie Sansheng of ours currently has gave the God of War a little God of War. Position is not ordinary…"
"If so, then the difficulties will have a solution to be dealt with."
Hearing someone said this sentence, the two spirits that were chatting became rigid and turned head around. They saw Dong Fang Qing Cang with silver hair standing behind them. He arrogantly shot them a glance, "It seemed that you have done a service for ben zuo."
The surrounding scene was temporarily quiet. The gazes of the various ghostly spirits all poured over here.
The two spirits were completely stunned.
They…they did not want to do service for demon king ah!
But when they were still bewildered, Dong Fang Qing Cang was like before when coming—he disappeared in a more mysterious way than even a shadow. This left the people besides the riverbank of Wangchuan at underworld to peer at one another.
After leaving the underworld and riding Da Yu high up to the clouds, Dong Fang Qing Cang did not let Da Yu bring him up to Jiuchongtian (Ninth Heavens) right away. Nevertheless, the body of Da Yu was too large and currently he was heavily injured. It was unsuitable to draw too much attention. He let Da Yu go first while he decisively activated invisibility and within the blink of an eye, has transformed into a wave of wind that flew straight up to Jiuchongtian.

The soldiers guarding the Nantianmen (Northern Heavenly Gates) stood imposingly in front of the gates. They merely felt a breeze blowing the red tassels on their helmets. Aside from that, did not discover anything.
Although the heavenly realm in a short period of time has finished repairing Zhuxian Terrace and temporarily suppressed the violating energies beneath, but there were quite more than a few places that the violating energies eroded away. The tumultuous noises in the four directions did not leave the ears, but such obstreperousness was completely halted outside of Chang Sheng Tian (Always Heavenly Victorious), the residence of the God of War.
Red plum blossoms do not fade nor wilt outside of God of War's residence and blossomed into an ocean of flowers. From afar, can smell the red fragrance that faintly bewilders people.
Inside the courtyard, a lady who wore a long skirt embroidered with red plum blossoms was rocking the cradle, humming a song while peering at several sentences of Hua Ben* to which she would shoot glances at and mutter a few words.

Although she was doing a lot of tasks, but each movement was still gentle and unrestrained. This caused other to feel the days and months in this courtyard were very relaxing.
Suddenly, the sunlight that passed through the window and the cradle has darkened. The female was inwardly wary and immediately felt the neck was getting warm. She lifted head up to see Dong Fang Qing Cang with a black gown and silver hair standing in front of her face. The red-blood pupils carried natural-born contempt and peered at her from the top to bottom, "God of War's wife?"
Sansheng glanced at the raging fiery sword and gaze shifted one round then landed on the face of Dong Fang Qing Cang, "If I said you're wrong, will you spare me?"
Dong Fang Qing Cang narrowed his eyes.
"Apparently not." Sansheng pulled the cradle the back and let Dong Fang Qing Cang's fiery sword be away from the child a bit, "Correct, I am the wife of the God of War. Demon king came to find me for what matter ah?"
"Be a hostage." His voice was cold, "Stand up."
"En, okay." Sansheng agreed without hesitation and then flipped the previous page of Hua Ben. She then closed the book and placed it on chair. She stood up and patted the clothes. Then pushed the cradle afar for a bit and peered at the child that was still sleeping soundly. Sansheng blinked eyes and peered attentively at Dong Fang Qing Cang, "You want me to be a hostage. Assuming so, temporarily will not kill me. Let me curiously ask several sentences. If you're satisfied with my curiosity, the upcoming journey I can carefully coordinate with you, alright?"
Unexpectedly this innate character of this person was like so. Dong Fang Qing Cang can't help from furrowing brows. This kind of neither servile nor overbearing manner he did not become disgusted with.
"Ben zuo has never responded to the questions of another."
"Then pick several that you want to respond to." The attitude of Sansheng appeared natural, "Granted that you don't want to talk, but you have inconvenient me in order to become a hostage then has to let me know you want me to be a hostage for what? If you want to plot and kill for properties, then I won't do it. If there is another reason that can be convinced, saying otherwise I will take care, and conscientiously coordinate with you."
Becoming a hostage needs to negotiate?
He felt that the current God of War seemed to have married a wife whose brain has a problem…
Dong Fang Qing Cang turned steps around and the tip of the raging fiery sword went behind Sansheng and propped up against her back, forcing Sansheng to walk forward, "Go to the door of Wan Tian Zhi Xu."
Sansheng blinked twice. She would go forward and would turn head around to look at him, "You want to go to Wan Tian Zhi Xu? To save someone? Or about save someone to create chaos?"
Dong Fang Qing Cang did not respond. Sansheng pondered to herself and muttered, "Say, previously you came to Zhuxian Terrace to save Little Orchid…Where is Little Orchid, how come [I] do not see her with you? Currently, her identity is difficult to deal with. If that Heavenly Emperor captured her then certainly cannot live anymore. After you have saved her from Zhuxian Terrace, has treated her well or no? That body isn't a place she can stay long. Did you find her another body? If cannot find then it might be too late…"
"Oh!" Sansheng nodded to due sudden realization, "I understood! You want to go to Wan Tian Zhi Xu to find Siming ah, wanted to see if she has a method to save Little Orchid? Correct correct correct, although unexpectedly admit, but from the past Siming always know more than others. Asking her is a great method. You didn't know the despairing expression Little Orchid displayed when being pushed down Zhuxian Terrace that day…"
"Despair?"
"Correct ah, like a wandering dog being abandoned. In this period of time she has left heavenly realm and thus, did not know many matters. When [she] returned, knew that her master has abandoned her and picked the choice of going with lover to Wan Tian Zhi Xu. Definitely has received a not-small strike. After that, the people of the heavenly realm wanted to kill her…When I peered to see when [she] fell down Zhuxian Terrace, in her eyes seemed less light of life and perhaps was really heartbroken. But luckily, you came to rescue her. Only needed you to treat her well and Little Orchid will be happy.
Dong Fang Qing Cang suddenly halted steps.
In his head suddenly appeared the scene of that day when Little Orchid asked him, "Big devil, you really have to forced me to die because of your desire?" She asked, "Have you ever thought of being able to prevail over your desire? Possibly let go of your plan?"
At that time how did he respond? He did not speak any sentence and silently denied her hopes. But even if so, Little Orchid still said he was warm, said he cares for her, and even treated her well…In this moment Dong Fang Qing Cang suddenly couldn't refrain from loathing himself. At the same time, has the feeling of unclear pain that [one] does know where it began and does not know how to control it.
From the past to now, this little flower demon did not have the brain to understand his conduct and deeds?
There isn't someone who will treat another well when that person wanted to take the life of that other person at any moment ah!
Clearly he…was a scoundrel from head to tail like what she usually scolded about—rotten to the core of the bones. Rotten to the point…
That caused her to cost her life.
Sansheng went forward for a long while and suddenly discovered from behind there were no hostile energies from the raging fiery sword anymore. She turned head around to look. She did not know when Dong Fang Qing Cang has halted his steps and lagged behind her a far distance. He stood foolishly at one stop and peered at something in the hand with a decrepit expression.
