5: Hello, this is the Underworld Company at your service.

"You didn't oversleep, you were possessed by a ghost," Tiger Bro said crossly.

"Ghost possession? Tiger Bro, you're bluffing me!" Heizi had a look of disbelief.

Xiao Lan then opened her makeup bag, took out a mirror, and handed it to Heizi, letting him look at his face. "Uncle Heizi, look at your face."

Heizi was bewildered, but he still took the mirror to look at his face. He saw his face covered in pustules and his skin festering. "Ah! I'm disfigured! Who the hell disfigured me! I won't be able to get a wife now!" Heizi cried out in distress T﹏T.

"Uncle Heizi, even if you weren't disfigured, you still wouldn't be able to get a wife," Xiao Lan said honestly.

Tiger Bro nodded in agreement. "It's okay, Heizi. When the time comes, I'll pay for you to go to Country H for plastic surgery. I guarantee you'll be turned into a handsome middle-aged man."

"Really?" Heizi whimpered.

"Truer than real gold," Tiger Bro promised, patting his chest.

Heizi wiped away his tears. "Why didn't you say so earlier? I wouldn't have cried. Hiss! But it really hurts!"

You Yu stood to the side, looking resentfully at the interaction between the three. If he had known, he wouldn't have acted so cold and aloof. The employee manual issued by the BOSS didn't say—what to do when forgotten by a client!

A telepathic message came through, "You Yu, remove the Pseudo-Obscuration Technique. When mortals see a Ghost Messenger, they will automatically forget within a minute.

This time, the Underworld is stepping to the forefront, not staying behind the scenes," Shang Wan Ning said coldly.

You Yu nodded and casually removed the Pseudo-Obscuration Technique. "Yes, BOSS."

At this moment, Tiger Bro slapped his thigh. "Oh! I actually forgot about the Master." Then, he grabbed You Yu's hand, which was icy cold. "Don't mind me, Master! I'm getting on in years, my memory isn't what it used to be. Hehe..."

You Yu patted away Tiger Bro's hand. "Mortals should not touch Ghost Messengers. It will affect your lifespan."

"Ghost Messenger... Ghost Messenger?" Tiger Bro stammered. Only then did he react; the abnormal temperature of the Master's hand was definitely not something a normal person would have. "Messenger Brother, I'm only 42. I'm still young, I don't want to die yet! Please don't take me away!"

You Yu frowned slightly; this mortal was quite foolish. "I'm not taking you."

"Ah! Not taking me. No, no, you should still take me! My niece is only 18, you can't take her away," Tiger Bro said anxiously.

Xiao Lan, standing to the side, didn't know what to think. Maternal Uncle's brain must have been scared silly by the ghost! But Maternal Uncle really was good to her.

"Maternal Uncle, the Messenger Brother means that he's not taking anyone away. He's just here to save us. Besides, since ghosts exist, the Underworld must exist too!!!" Xiao Lan analyzed.

Sitting in the office watching the live stream, Shang Wan Ning looked gratified. "A promising young girl. She saved me a lot of trouble. That explanation is not bad! Xiao Si, leave a mark; we'll save an external staff position for her after she dies."

"Okay, Host," Xiao Si said.

[Big Eater and Anorexia: *Excited screaming, excited screaming*...@Qingyun Temple Xuan Wei—Master, the Underworld has emerged... AA Not Eating Rabbit: This script and special effects are pretty good, gives off a cinematic feel.]

[Ten-Year Bald Special Effects Artist: @AA Not Eating Rabbit—I guarantee with the hair I just had transplanted, this is absolutely real. There are ghosts and the Underworld in this world.]

[AA Not Eating Rabbit: You guys are in this together, right? A water army? It's the 21st century, no becoming spirits after the founding of the PRC.]

[Pika Pika Pikachu: @AA Not Eating Rabbit—Look at his homepage, he's a top-tier special effects artist in the country. This is real, hurry up and go to the temple to buy talismans!]

[Allergy Loves Mangoes: Go to Qingyun Temple, it's incredibly effective! Yesterday I encountered a wandering soul, and it was Priest Xuan Wei who solved it.]

The bullet comments were lagging like crazy at this moment~

...You Yu nodded and pulled a stack of flyers from his suit pocket. He took out three and handed them to the three people. Funds were tight, so he had to be frugal!

Tiger Bro took the flyer, thinking it was something good to ward off evil. He looked at it and saw a row of large characters: Hello! Underworld Culture Media Co., Ltd. is at your service. Service Hotline: ******

Below that were the detailed charges.

Rank 0-1—incense offerings: One thousand

Rank 1-2—incense offerings: Ten thousand

Rank 2-3—incense offerings: One hundred thousand

Rank 3-4—incense offerings: One million

Rank 4-5—incense offerings: Ten million

Rank 5-6—incense offerings: One hundred million

Rank 6-7—Humanity is all gone!!!

(Note: Each person provides 10 incense offerings per day)

Pay 10,000 incense offerings to become an annual VIP user and enjoy a 20% discount!

"For the three of you, that will be a total of 10,000 incense offerings!" You Yu said calmly.

Tiger Bro was stunned for a moment, not expecting the Underworld to be so up-to-date with the times. "Messenger Brother, we don't have these incense offerings right now!"

You Yu snapped his fingers, and a poster landed in his hand, which he slowly unfurled.

You Yu signaled Heizi to hold up the poster and looked toward the camera. "Hold it higher."

In the picture was a woman wearing imperial robes, sitting in the Fengdu Emperor's Palace. "This is the supreme ruler of the Underworld—the Empress. You only need to sincerely worship the Empress every day to obtain 10 incense offerings."

You Yu turned to look at Tiger Bro. "If you don't have enough incense offerings, you can owe it for now. Once you've saved up enough, the Underworld Bank will automatically deduct it. After all, since ancient times, no one has dared to default on incense offerings to the Underworld."

You Yu added, "The Underworld keeps up with the times and supports online incense burning; all that's needed is sincerity." After saying that, You Yu vanished.

Tiger Bro rubbed his eyes and then looked at Heizi's pustules. "It wasn't a dream!"

Xiao Lan's worldview was shattered. "Is the end of science theology?"

[Big Eater and Anorexia: *Excited screaming, excited screaming*...@Qingyun Temple Xuan Wei—Master, there's a discrepancy in the ancient records regarding the Underworld's supreme ruler! It's an Empress!]

[Qingyun Temple Xuan Wei: @Big Eater and Anorexia—Received. Currently buying a plane ticket to the capital. Will change it immediately... Great Monster and Little Monster: Worldview shattered. Is it too late to become a Taoist priest now?]

[Big Eater and Anorexia: @Great Monster and Little Monster—You need talent. With average talent, it takes over a decade to start catching ghosts.]

...While Tiger Bro and the other two were encountering the ghost, many fans in the live stream room uploaded the previously recorded videos to the internet.

At this moment, the video was being shared frantically online, spreading to every corner like a virus.

A storm of spiritual energy recovery seemed to be brewing on the internet, fueled by the leaked videos, screenshots, and chat logs.

It began to slowly ferment online.

"Host, don't you find it embarrassing? Such a large poster."

"The original owner and my current face still look thirty percent similar; will acquaintances recognize me?" Shang Wan Ning asked doubtfully.

"They won't recognize you, great host. The original owner had no ties, so all traces have been cleaned up by Xiao Si. Moreover, the Host has a divine body, so mortals will automatically forget the Host's appearance."

Shang Wan Ning looked indifferent. "Then it's fine! Making money isn't shameful."

"But cultivators can remember! What Xiao Si wanted to say is, great host, you didn't choose the makeup shade well. How about changing to a new one?"

"No, putting on makeup is so annoying òᆺó! Just make do with it!"
