631 Old Friends in Shock
Old Friends in Shock
As Yuan Emperor spoke, everyone looked at He Chuan.
“No, I’m the Chief now.” He Chuan briefly explained what had happened. When they learned about Pan Kui’s death, Yuan Emperor and the others also found it unbelievable. They did not expect the war between Great Yan and Dahao to be so intense.
He had heard He Chuan mention it before, but he didn’t care much about it. Now, it seemed that it was much fiercer than the battle back then.
Back then, in the war, at most God Realm cultivators were sent out. There was not a single Sacred Venerable Realm cultivator. Now that a Sacred Venerable Realm cultivator had died, it could be seen how intense the war was.
“How did you become the Chief? Logically speaking, your contribution and cultivation are not enough…” Yuan Emperor was a little curious.
“I killed Green Emperor together with Vice Palace Master Tai Weng.” After He Chuan said this, the others stopped asking.
“Go back first. I’ll arrange positions for you.”
“Lord Judge.” Yuan Emperor cupped his fists and bowed. The others followed suit.
He Chuan accepted it frankly and did not stand on ceremony.
It wasn’t that he was snobbish. In the past, they could talk about their own matters. Now that they were under his command, they definitely had to settle down their status to prevent trouble in the future.
Nether Earth’s current position was similar to his, but he still had to call him master. Yuan Emperor was one level lower than him, but he called him Daoist Friend.
Wouldn’t that be a mess?
After packing his things, He Chuan left with his men.
Arriving at the headquarters of the Netherworld, Yuan Emperor looked at the ghosts and gods that filled the sky and the hall that was as tall as the stars. He could not help but sigh.
Compared to it, the Reincarnation Palace was incomparably small. He had only 36,000 ghosts and gods back then, but he was already known as the sect of ghosts and gods in the world. Now that he thought about it, it was a little ridiculous.
He Chuan walked into the Judge’s Hall, sat on a chair, and opened the Book of Life and Death.
Yuan Emperor, Southern Monarch, Eastern Monarch, Liu Yishou, and Fang Tong’s information were all recorded in the Book of Life and Death.
After entering it, it meant that the information had been submitted.
“Ming Chen Hall has three divisions and six cases, while the Judge Division has four cases. They reward the good and punish the evil, and investigate the laws of the Yin.” Thinking of this, He Chuan looked at everyone and said.
The head of the four cases was also known as the Little Judge. They sat in the center and judged the four directions.
In Yellow Spring Hall, besides the Hall Master, the Judges had the greatest authority. They covered almost all aspects and issued decrees. Although the City God was larger in scale and had more people, the power to decide cases was basically in the hands of the Judges.
“However, I can only give Yuan Emperor a position. The rest of you are at most Yin Commanders.” He Chuan thought for a moment and added.
The others were only half-step Immortal Venerables.
If they were to be the Head of the Case, wouldn’t it be a joke? He Chuan would rather the position be empty than hand it over to someone else.
“I choose the Inspection Department, there is more freedom.” Yuan Emperor finally decided.
“That Eastern Monarch will be the Yin Commander of the Inspection Department. The others will be the Deputies.” He Chuan made the final decision.
The Yin Justice Division was handed over to Yaoyue to manage, with Xingyue acting as the Deputy.
Both of them had the Dao Fruit of becoming an Immortal Venerable, and their combined strength was not inferior to an early-stage God Realm cultivator. They could be considered the faces of the Reincarnation Palace.
He originally wanted to ask the old ghost who was acting as a statue to come out, but this guy seemed to be deaf and did not move at all.
He had no choice but to give up.
The war of the two worlds had come to an end, and both sides had suffered heavy casualties. He Chuan had originally asked Yaoyue to contact Lord Yin and prepare to fulfill the agreement to activate the formation together before the battle, but the other party had not made any moves.
Therefore, He Chuan was idle. He was still absorbing Green Emperor’s power. The Innate Creation Wood’s energy was immense and needed time to be digested.
The Yuan Emperor and the others took the talismans and magic tools and officially became the officials of the Netherworld.
“Master, how many worlds does Ming Chen Hall control?” Yuan Emperor suddenly asked.
He Chuan did not understand this, so he opened the Book of Life and Death. It recorded the living beings of all worlds and related worlds.
Including DahHao, Ming Chen Hall’s influence spread across thirteen worlds. Most of them had already established their Netherworld and started to carry out their duties.
A small portion was completely under his control, becoming the territory of the Yellow Springs.
“You guys get to know each other first. I’m going out for a while.” He Chuan was suddenly interested, so he looked at Yuan Emperor and the others.
After saying that, his figure disappeared from where he was. No one knew where he went, leaving everyone looking at each other.
He Chuan stood on the Yin soil. The sky above his head was filled with dark clouds. From time to time, they would pierce through the dark clouds and descend. This was the ghost officer escorting the souls.
Behind him was a magnificent hall. Through the door, one could vaguely see the dignified officials writing something.
“This lowly one greets Lord. Why is the Lord free to come over?” Seeing He Chuan come over, the official’s pupils constricted. He hurriedly put down his work and came over to welcome him.
“And you are?” He Chuan asked.
“I’m the Yin Commander, Yaksha Corpse, who guards this place. I’m in charge of the affairs of the underworld in this world.” Yaksha Corpse was a ghost that had turned into a corpse. He also had the cultivation of a Ghost God. He was originally the head of the Department of Merit Rewards, but because he offended Pan Kui, he was exiled to this place.
“It’s nothing. I was bored and came over to take a look. This is also the Book of Life and Death.” He Chuan looked at the register on the table. It was filled with names and merits. He asked curiously.
“It’s not the Book of Life and Death, but an ordinary name list. Only the Lord has the power to decide.” Yaksha Corpse replied respectfully as he lowered his body.
“However, if the Lord wants to be idle, you can hand over the power of adjudication to others. That was what Lord Pan Kui did back then.” He knew that He Chuan was the new boss, but he did not dare to neglect him. Now was the time to use people. He might be able to use this opportunity to return to central control.
“Is that so?” He Chuan really didn’t know how Pan Kui worked.
“The Lord has unlimited power in the Judge Division. You can do whatever you want.” Yaksha Corpse’s ferocious face revealed a kind smile, which looked very strange.
Do whatever you want?
Did he really have that much power? He Chuan had never experienced this feeling before.
“Put down the things at hand and follow me to the mortal world.” He Chuan said to Yaksha Corpse. Since he had nothing to do anyway, he might as well go down and watch the fireworks.
“Yes, sir.” Yaksha Corpse immediately packed his things and followed behind He Chuan.
The two of them arrived at the hidden mountain forest through the teleportation array. This time, they were incognito and did not have to make a big fuss.
They traveled thousands of miles, and there were bustling crowds beside them. There were hawkers on both sides of the street, and there was a fragrance coming from them.
The people around them did not seem surprised at the sudden appearance of the two people, or rather, they did not notice them at all.
Peddlers and soldiers, the world of mortals.
He Chuan hadn’t experienced such excitement for hundreds of years. He had long been estranged from ordinary mortals and could no longer return to that ordinary life.
The concept of time for immortal cultivators was different from that of mortals. For mortals, decades was a very long time, but for immortal cultivators, it was just the blink of an eye.
Although their bodies and appearances were similar, they were essentially two different species.
He didn’t come here to wander around, but to see what was so special about this place.
It was written in the Book of Life and Death that the world was completely controlled by Yellow Spring. He Chuan knew what was different.
“I’ll bring the Lord to a place and you’ll know.” Facing He Chuan’s question, the Yaksha said.
