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

Chapter 62: Peeping

There was indeed hidden resentment in Qingyangzi's heart.

This resentment was not small.

Tianpeng was demoted to the role of a broom star, and anyone with discerning eyes knew that this was only temporary.

Once the emperor's anger subsided, he would be reinstated.

Originally, with Qingyangzi's cultivation level, it would take at least several decades to overcome the three heavenly tribulations.

But for the sake of the broom star position, he was willing to take the risk of falling into demonic cultivation and forcefully transcend the tribulation.

Fortunately, with the blessings of the heavens, he successfully passed the wind tribulation and became a quasi-immortal.

Little did he know that Xia Yi, that brat, had already passed the three heavenly tribulations early on and even condensed his primordial spirit into an infant.

The position of the rightful god was thus taken away by him.

How could he not feel resentful about this?

Just then, the sound of gongs and drums rang out, and an immortal official descended from the sky with a scroll.

Xia Yi and the officials from the Qingtian Court hurriedly paid their respects.

"The emperor has decreed to grant Xia Yi a bottle of Pure Yang Pill, three pieces of Heavenly Silk, five barrels of Immortal Wine, and ten Golden Flowers!"

"Thank you for the emperor's grace!"

Xia Yi received the imperial decree, and a burst of astonishment flashed into the sleeve of the immortal official. It was indeed a good Law Treasure.

This immortal official was one of the attendants of the Supreme Emperor, and there was no harm in befriending him.

The immortal official nodded in satisfaction and said, "The reason why the emperor bestowed the Pure Yang Pill upon you is to allow you to quickly reach the peak of an Earth Immortal and master the ancient calamity star! In addition, with the Purple Jade Bamboo, you can enter the Heavenly Script Pavilion, the Armory, and other forbidden places. Nowadays, the heavenly court is sparsely populated with immortals, and the heavenly laws are not strict."

"Thank you for the divine guidance!"

Xia Yi bowed and raised his cup, realizing that the Law Treasure he received was not in vain.

After the immortal official, Heavenly Soldier, left, Xia Yi took out a jar of Immortal Wine and said, "Thanks to the emperor's grace, I have become the Broom Star Lord. Today, we will not return until we are drunk!"

The officials cheered.

This was the Immortal Wine specially brewed by the Heavenly Court, although it was not the Qiongjiang Jade Liquid brewed from peaches, it was still made from countless rare immortal medicines by the immortal officials and warriors, making it extremely precious.

Only Qingyangzi's face looked a bit unnatural. Originally, all of this belonged to him, but he quickly concealed his strange expression and picked up his cup to toast enthusiastically.

For a while, the fragrance of wine filled the mansion, and there was laughter and joy.

The banquet lasted until dusk, and everyone was drunk, with each riding their clouds and leaving one by one.

Qingyangzi was also drunk. The Immortal Wine of the Heavenly Court could even make a Celestial Immortal drunk, let alone a quasi-immortal.

As he rode his cloud, he cursed Xia Yi in his heart.

Immortals live forever, and unless something unexpected happens, he will always be the second in command of the Qingtian Court.

"I heard that the Flame Palace is recruiting divine generals. Perhaps I can go and take a look. Even if I can't become the main god of the Fire Department, being an auxiliary god is not bad either!"

Thinking of this, Qingyangzi's mind stirred, preparing to go to the Flame Palace on the twenty-third heavenly level and inquire about the situation from a familiar official.

He had been sweeping the major heavenly palaces for many years and had made friends with many officials.

Immediately, he rode his cloud and flew upwards.

After an unknown amount of time, Qingyangzi suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, and his whole body felt comfortable and happy.

"Where is this fragrance coming from? Why does it smell so good?"

Qingyangzi sniffed and soon arrived at a beautiful green mountain, surrounded by auspicious clouds, where phoenixes danced and the air was filled with intoxicating fragrance.

In the midst of it all was a misty hot spring, with mist swirling and flowing water murmuring, and immortal flowers blooming. It was truly a sacred land.

Qingyangzi, relying on his drunkenness, approached, only to see several fairies in the misty mist, taking off their light veils, wearing only a large red bellyband. Their figures were exquisite, their skin crystal clear, and a hint of pink, making them extremely alluring.

"Which palace's fairies are these? They are truly beautiful!"

As the saying goes, when one is well-fed and warm, one thinks of lust. Lust filled Qingyangzi's eyes.

But he was, after all, a quasi-immortal who had passed three heavenly tribulations. He immediately sobered up, sweating profusely, and the drunkenness disappeared without a trace.

"Isn't this the Dust-Cleansing Spring on the nineteenth heavenly level? How did I end up here?"

The Dust-Cleansing Spring was the bathing place for the heavenly court's fairies, and male immortals were forbidden to enter.

He immediately wanted to leave.

But unexpectedly, he alarmed several fairies who were about to bathe.

"Which madman is lurking over there?"

The leading fairy was very alert. She first waved her hand and put on the faded fairy clothes.

Then she gently blew, and the mist in front of her dissipated, revealing Qingyangzi who was about to escape.

"Trying to run? It's not that easy!"

Immediately, she snorted coldly and summoned a golden rope as thick as a thumb.

This golden rope, like a Flood Dragon, coiled and entangled, quickly binding Qingyangzi securely.

Qingyangzi looked at the fairy in front of him, his heart sank. This was clearly the personal maid of Princess Longji of the Tian Shui Palace, highly favored and had become an immortal a thousand years ago, possessing incredibly strong power.

"Fairy Qingluan, I, this humble immortal, accidentally trespassed here while drunk. I beg for your forgiveness, forgiveness!"

Even though he was bound, Qingyangzi still struggled and knelt on the ground, cold sweat streaming down, his expression filled with fear.

"You should say these words to the Heavenly Criminal Court!"

Immediately, she uttered an incantation and summoned divine soldiers.

Before long, a golden-armored heavenly god arrived with Heavenly Soldiers.

"This guy peeped at us sisters bathing while drunk. Hand him over to the Heavenly Criminal Court!" Fairy Qingluan said.

"Yes!"

Immediately, Heavenly Soldiers stepped forward, pierced Qingyangzi's pipa bone, and sealed his primordial spirit.

Qingyangzi's face was filled with despair as he was escorted away.

After this incident, Fairy Qingluan also lost her mood for bathing and left one after another.

A few days later, the punishment from the Heavenly Criminal Court came down. Qingyangzi's head was beheaded on the Demon-Slaying Platform, and his divine soul was sent to the realm of beasts, reincarnating eight times.

The Heavenly Court was very strict when it came to the desires of divine beings.

Qingtian Monitoring Bureau.

"In the ten thousand years of the Heavenly Court's existence, there has never been an incident of a male immortal peeping at female fairies bathing. Why didn't we see Qingyangzi's lustful heart before?"

"He truly is an abnormality among the immortals, utterly shameless!"

"Isn't Qingyangzi's mansion nearby? How did he end up at the Nineteenth Heaven's Dust-Cleansing Spring?"

"Who knows!"

...

The officials of the Qingtian Monitoring Bureau discussed one after another.

"Li Ran, as the Qingtian Captain, you are responsible for cleaning up the Demon-Slaying Platform. Go and collect Qingyangzi's corpse, it can be considered as showing camaraderie!" Xia Yi said expressionlessly.

"Still, the Star Lord is benevolent and righteous!"

Li Ran quickly left.

"This calamity is truly terrifying!" Xia Yi muttered to himself.

He harbored deep resentment towards Qingyangzi.

Under normal circumstances, as long as Qingyangzi didn't leave the Heavenly Court, it would be difficult for him to do anything to him.

But allowing him to stab him in the back was not his style either.

So he secretly injected a strand of calamity qi from the Wuyu into Qingyangzi's primordial spirit.

Unexpectedly, the effect was so significant, it immediately took effect.

And no one could trace it back to him.

In the following years, Xia Yi focused on refining the Pure Yang Pill.

This was the best Immortal Pill for suppressing Yin spirits and strengthening Yang spirits, refined by the Immortal Masters of the Heavenly Court.

During leisure time, he would go to the Primordial World to comprehend the "Hongmeng Calamity Scripture," and his days were quite carefree.

One day, on his way back from the Qingtian Monitoring Bureau to his mansion, he was stopped by a heavenly general.

"The princess has issued an edict!"

The heavenly general's voice was low as he handed over a blood-colored jade slip.

Xia Yi nodded slightly and discreetly put it away.

Then, the two of them passed by each other and left.
