I'm In Heaven, I Just Want To Work Overtime

Chapter 44 True Martial, Fire God, Yue Lao

Chapter 44: True Martial, Fire God, Matchmaker

It was a group of fairies dressed in palace attire, with pink veils draped over their shoulders, their appearance delicate and beautiful, their skin as smooth as jade.

The leading fairy had a dignified and graceful appearance, radiating an otherworldly charm that couldn't compare to the Moon Fairy Chang'e of the Taiyin Star, but had its own unique allure.

"Isn't this Dong Shuangcheng?!"

Xia Yi was greatly surprised. Wasn't Dong Shuangcheng imprisoned by the Queen Mother for three years? How could he be released before serving half of his sentence?

When Dong Shuangcheng saw Xia Yi, he was also taken aback, a hint of killing intent flickering in his eyes.

"Hey, who are you? Why are you in the Peach Blossom Garden?" one of the fairies asked.

"Because the former Tiancheng of the Qingtian Court is in seclusion, I am temporarily in charge of the Qingtian Court and have come to clean the Peach Blossom Garden!" Xia Yi quickly replied.

"So that's how it is!"

The fairy no longer pursued the matter and instead said, "Sister Dong, let's pick some nine-thousand-year-old peaches. The Queen Mother wants to use them to make some Qiongjiang Yulu and give them to the Saint Empress Wa."

Dong Shuangcheng quickly regained his composure, picked up a basket woven from fairy bamboo, and went to the side of the nine-thousand-year-old peach tree to pick some peaches the size of bowls, which were pink in color.

Afterwards, the group of fairies also picked some Innate Spirit Medicine before leaving satisfied.

"This little troublemaker is probably going to cause trouble again!"

Killing intent flashed in Xia Yi's eyes.

However, Dong Shuangcheng was a attendant fairy of the Queen Mother, in charge of the Peach Blossom Garden, and held a respected position above ordinary heavenly gods.

If he were to kill Dong Shuangcheng, it would definitely attract the attention of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

These two were the children that Dao Ancestor Hongjun had enlightened after Opening Heaven, and they were on the same level as the demonic teacher Kunpeng and the Lord of the Nether River.

Unless he fled to the Heavenly Court and hid in the depths of the Netherworld, becoming a demonic cultivator.

"I can only work within the laws of heaven and make use of the Heavenly Code. Little troublemaker, don't let me catch you, or you'll suffer the consequences!" Xia Yi sneered.

He didn't bother with her for now. It was just a matter of blocking the enemy and covering up the truth.

Soon, half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the Peach Blossom Garden was completely cleaned, without a single fallen leaf or broken branch.

Such meticulousness was to avoid leaving any evidence, after all, the Peach Blossom Garden was Dong Shuangcheng's territory.

After returning to the Qingtian Court, the next task was to clean the Heavenly Palaces.

The first one that needed cleaning was the residence of True Martial, the Protector True Monarch.

Currently, True Martial was only one of the Four Saints of the North Pole and had not yet been appointed as the Heavenly Venerable who eradicates demons.

This great deity held a respected position in the Heavenly Court, and even the Heavenly Emperor Haotian didn't dare to neglect him.

Xia Yi held the Heaven-Repairing Flag and cautiously arrived at the Profound Heaven Hall. Outside the door, there were many divine generals guarding it, solemn and majestic, with a murderous aura.

The heavenly palaces in the Heavenly Court were all constructed by countless immortal treasures, untainted by mortal dust.

And inside the palaces, there were mostly immortal children and fairies serving.

What needed cleaning were the cultivation rooms.

Basically, every heavenly god's palace had a dedicated place for cultivation.

Cultivation wasn't just about seclusion.

There was also cultivating techniques, forging Law Treasures, and refining pills.

During the cultivation process, various energies would be left behind.

That's where the Qingtian Court came in to clean.

After all, heavenly gods had their own duties, and they wouldn't waste their time on such trivial matters.

After presenting the divine seal and documents, Xia Yi finally entered the palace.

Before he had gone far, a Daoist came towards him, disheveled and barefoot, wearing a purple-gold Eight Trigrams Cloudlight Robe, his black beard fluttering, his eyes like lightning, and he held a dusting broom in his hand.

"You're from the Qingtian Court? Just as this True Monarch has finished cultivating and needs a cleaning!" the disheveled Daoist spoke up.

"Xiao Xian will definitely do his best to clean up and satisfy True Monarch!" Xia Yi quickly bowed and saluted.

True Martial You Sheng True Monarch did not respond, but walked straight out.

This True Martial You Sheng True Monarch is currently only at the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal. Xia Yi estimated that when he proves the Great Principle, he will be conferred the title of True Martial Great Emperor.

Guided by the fairy child, they quickly arrived at True Martial True Monarch's cultivation room.

It was a void small world with a meditation cushion in the center and several jade slips, such as the Huangting.

There were also Bagua furnaces, knives, swords, spears, and axes not far away.

The surrounding area was filled with raging winds, fires, thunderstorms, and various violent energies surging incessantly, as well as numerous densely packed spatial cracks.

It was much more intense than the previous battle in the North Sea.

"I wonder what Immortal Law Divine Ability this True Monarch is cultivating to create such a big commotion!"

Xia Yi sighed and raised the Bǔtiān Flag, shining with colorful light, repairing the void and clearing the residual energy.

It took him three days to clean up this small world.

"It seems that the job of the Clear Sky Envoy is not as easy as imagined!"

In a palace, Xia Yi looked at the burning flames in the sky, feeling somewhat speechless.

This was the residence of a fire department deity in the Heavenly Court, modeled after a ten-thousand-year fire crow. It used to wreak havoc in the lower realms but was later pacified by the Heavenly Court and became a deity of the fire department.

Although the Heavenly Court's organization is not yet complete, there are still scattered deities in charge of the fire, water, thunder, and combat departments.

Of course, positions like the Fire Virtue Star Lord and Water Virtue Star Lord are vacant and will only be conferred after the end of the Yin-Shang War, when Jiang Ziya will confer the title of Heavenly Lord of the Zhou Dynasty.

Ahead, it looked like a mountain of flames, and the void was distorted. It was mixed with several flames, mostly acquired divine fires such as the Samadhi Divine Fire, Stone Fire, and Star Flame.

Xia Yi's heart moved as he took out the bronze ancient lamp he obtained from the North Sea battlefield.

Under the stimulation of his mana, countless flames converged towards the wick of the lamp.

Before long, the flames in this small world disappeared.

The flame on the bronze ancient lamp, the size of a grain of rice, had become slightly larger than a soybean.

It could be considered a small gain.

The last thing that needed to be cleaned was the palace of the Matchmaker.

At the entrance of the palace hung a golden plaque with the words "Heaven and Earth Marriage".

Inside the main hall, a thin old man in a bright red wedding robe was leisurely drinking tea.

He had the cultivation level of a Celestial Immortal, but was not outstanding among the heavenly deities.

"When did the Heavenly Court become so wealthy? Even the janitors are immortals now!" The Matchmaker was somewhat surprised.

"I wonder what the senior god wants me to clean?" Xia Yi asked respectfully.

"Come with me!"

The Matchmaker stood up and led Xia Yi to another hall.

Inside the hall was an endless chaotic starry sky, filled with countless tiny stars, densely packed beyond measure.

Upon closer inspection, these tiny stars were actually clay figurines, each with a lovely and lifelike appearance.

Whenever beings in the Three Realms need to be married, they will manifest in the chaotic Marriage Fate Pool and be reflected as clay figurines.

Marriage is the foundation of rituals and the basis of social order.

The Three Realms consist of heaven, earth, and humans, with humans at the center, able to control ghosts and gods.

Now that human civilization is flourishing, the beings corresponding to the clay figurines in the chaotic Marriage Fate Pool are mostly humans, but there are also some from the Monster Race and Witch Clan.

When these beings develop affection in the mortal realm, the clay figurines in the chaotic Marriage Fate Pool will approach each other, and then a red string of fate will be born, intertwining with each other. This signifies the formation of a marriage.
