Hao Sheng believed in one thing above all else: if you can get it for free, never pay for it.
That was until one late night, when he sent a bargain-sharing link to the wrong group while trying to get a 9.9-yuan air fryer with free shipping. The group was called “Fun for All Three Realms,” its owner was the King of Hell, and its members included Black and White Impermanence, Meng Po, the Judge, and a Howling Celestial Dog that could only say “woof.”
He clicked to slash the price once, and the underworld went into an uproar. He shared a link, and the Netherworld’s KPIs fell apart. His cheap 9.9-yuan air fryer put the alchemy furnace that the Supreme Lord Lao had refined for thousands of years to shame.
From then on, Hao Sheng became the first “earthly-world purchasing agent” across the Three Realms. The Matchmaker forgot his red threads while trying to bargain. Taibai Jinxing lost it after Hao Sheng told him, “Refund only.” The King of Hell personally “invited” him to the Netherworld, just to ask in a lowered voice, “That air fryer of yours… do you have any more?”
He’d thought he had merely found a bug between the worlds of the living and the dead. Until the Heavenly Court’s “Order Bureau” sent him a notice: The System does not allow bugs.
“What gives you the right to shut down my business?” “Because half your customers are already dead.”
Pinduoduo bargain-hunting reached the Hall of the King of Hell. That one slash hit the world of the living, but the pain was felt in the underworld.
