ADAPTED FROM HEAVEN OFFICIAL'S BLESSING, A NOVEL BY MO XIANG TONG XIU,

PUBLISHED ON JINJIANG LITERATURE CITY

That's strange. General Ming Guang is in charge of the north,

but there's only Nan Yang Temple here.

General Nan Yang is in charge of the southeast,

but he has so many believers in the north.

That's right. He's beloved by many.

I have a question, but I don't know...

If you're unsure, just don't ask then.

Actually, I was about to say, I don't know who I should ask.

Is it about the story behind the naming of Nan Yang Temples?

-The story behind the naming? -Shut up!

A long time ago,

General Nan Yang was called General Duke.

However, a careless king misspelled "Duke,"

replacing "u" with "i."

Hence, all "Duke" Temples changed their names to "Dick" Temple.

Words travel fast.

-The error has been corrected! -What's the point?

Up until now, aren't Nan Yang Temples' frequent visitors still women?

A lot of them would blush while making wishes.

Don't be an asshole!

Sweep the floor if you have nothing better to do!

What did you say?

Didn't your general serve tea to His Highness, sweep his floor,

and make his bed?

If I didn't know you better,

I would think you're speaking up for His Highness.

Your general is indeed ungrateful.

His Highness brought him to Heaven Realm and appointed him as a general.

After His Highness was banished, your general severed ties with him

and forbid others to bring it up.

Your general did the same too.

As His Highness's bodyguard, he pledged his loyalty.

In the end, he went back on his word and forsook his master.

Both of you...

Don't eat it!

It's dirty!

Stop!

Firstly, I'm the person you were talking about.

I remained silent. Please don't involve me in your fights.

Secondly, since you're here to aid me,

who should be in charge here?

-You should. -You should.

Very well.

Let's get down to business.

Can someone lend me some powers to contact Ling Wen?

What happened to yours?

Mine is not enough.

Your Highness?

Is everything going well in the north?

Are the two Deputy Gods of great help?

Yes.

Both of them have unique styles and potential.

That's great.

The northern region is under General Pei who has many believers.

Accommodate yourselves in the Ming Guang Temple if needed.

There isn't a Ming Guang Temple.

We just settled down in Nan Yang Temple.

There isn't any? That's strange...

As for the Ghost Bridegroom, do you have any information on it?

Yes. I was informed of the ghost's ranking.

Out of the ranking of Fierce, Severe, Wrath, and Devastation,

he's a Wrath, the second-highest rank.

He's ranked beneath Devastation.

If we don't do anything,

he would inflict severe damage and high casualties.

Please take him down as soon as possible.

It took so long to figure out his rank.

Ling Wen is inefficient.

The Ghost Bridegroom is a Wrath. Don't underestimate him.

We need to defeat it quickly.

Do you have any ideas?

If the Ghost Bridegroom is interested in brides,

we should use brides as baits.

But mannequins and deception don't work on a Wrath.

We need a real human being.

Not all brides went missing.

There must be other factors.

Whatever.

Let's just try it out with a girl and see.

We can't. If we fail, the girl would die.

If we can't get a girl, do you want to get a guy instead?

Which guy would be willing to dress up as...

If I were the Ghost Bridegroom

and took a bride like her...

You would wipe out the village?

I would kill this woman.

I'm really glad I'm not.

Sir.

You are...

You're the girl we saw yesterday.

Don't get me wrong.

I don't have such a hobby.

This is all for luring the Ghost Bridegroom out.

Sir, I'm sorry about yesterday.

I misunderstood you.

The teahouse owner said that you're resting here.

I brought some food as a token of my gratitude.

It's nothing. You're welcome.

Sir, I know how to alter clothes and dress people up.

How about I help you dress up as a bride?

Well...

-How are things going? -We hired some sedan carriers.

They are local residents.

They know the route and can protect themselves with kung fu.

Your Highness should take care of yourself.

They're indeed here for the bounty.

The brat Xiao Ying.

She refused to help us but helped some stranger instead.

Am I right, Pengtou?

While two dogs are fighting for a bone, a third runs away with it.

Let's see who wins.

Let's go!

-Keep up! -Move!

Miss, how does it feel to finally get married?

I'm disappointed that something important is missing in the bridal procession.

I think it's all set. What's missing?

Two maids for the bride.

Your family is too poor to afford maids.

All right.

By the way, where are we?

We've been in Mount Yujun for quite a while.

-New bride -What's wrong?

-New bride -Did you hear the giggles?

I didn't hear anything.

-The new bride on the red sedan chair -Me neither.

So it was intended for me?

Full of tears

Something is wrong.

-Going over the hills -Keep going. Act as if nothing's wrong.

Under the veil

-Never ever smile -Someone is singing.

What is it about?

"Full of tears, going over the hills."

"Under the veil, never ever smile."

-New bride -What does it mean? Do not smile?

-Maybe it's a trap. -New bride

Perhaps something bad would happen if you cry.

-The new bride -No matter if I cry or laugh,

-On the red sedan chair -what would be the worst scenario?

-You would be kidnapped. -New bride

That's right.

-Full of tears -I have something to tell you two.

What?

-Going over the hills -I've been smiling

since I got on the sedan chair.

Under the veil

Never ever smile

-Wolf? Those are wolves! -How can there be wolves here?

It looks like a magical formation. We have to find its focal point.

Nan Feng, Fu Yao. Can you handle them?

It's just a bunch of beasts. They're nothing!

A ghost!

What happened?

Don't come out!

They are Base Slaves!

I hate these bloody things! They just keep coming!

If they wear us out, we'll be done!

Did Ling Wen tell you about this?

Not at all.

How many are there?

About 100 or even more.

Ten of them are already a handful.

Over a hundred...

They'll become a real headache soon!

Slaughter!

I thought your powers were gone.

There are exceptions.

-You should leave first. -What?

If you surround the sedan, they will keep coming.

You can't kill them all. Just retreat now.

-What about you? -I'll stay to meet

the Ghost Bridegroom.

Stop dawdling.

Let's just kill them and come back later!

This way. Let's go!

Who is it?

There was an ancient kingdom called Xianle in the Central Plain.

Its crown prince was called Xie Lian.

The prince cherished his people and was well-cultivated.

His beauty

is widely known by his people.

His figure was etched in people's memory...

...when he saved a falling child on Shenwu Street.

His dazzling wit rid the people

of a ghost on Yinian Bridge.

The Heavenly Emperor

saw great potential in the Crown Prince.

He ascended into heaven at a very young age.

Yet, not long after that,

calamity hit the Xianle Kingdom.

The Crown Prince went to the Mortal Realm to save his kingdom,

-but to no avail. -It ended in desertion.

I think Feng Xin and Mu Qing did a good job.

-Good relationships are useless. -He's the joke of the three realms.

Later, Xie Lian was demoted again within half an hour of ascension.

If you can't find a reason to live,

then take me as your reason to live.

KIND BENEFACTORS, THE SHRINE IS DILAPIDATED.

PLEASE DONATE MONEY FOR THE REPAIRS AND GAIN MERITS.
