Chapter 175 The Wise Emperor Jun and Tai 1
The outer reception area of the Underworld's Reincarnation Bureau!
This place was originally used as a temporary shelter for newly arrived souls, awaiting trial by the judge.
At this moment, however, the place was bustling with noise...
Uh! It's a cacophony of voices.
Tens of thousands of demon souls gathered in this area, a truly frightening sight!
Although these demons have become spirits, they still retain some of their original appearances.
They whispered amongst themselves, excitedly surveying the environment of the underworld.
I'm hoping to be assigned a good job!
"Wow! This spiritual energy! It's amazing!"
It's even more concentrated than the Demon-Transforming Pool in our Heavenly Court back in the day!
"Look over there! That's our demon race's script!"
It seems His Majesty truly has influence here!
"I wonder which department I'll be assigned to?"
I want to go to the Underworld Army Bureau and do my old job under His Majesty the Eastern Emperor!
"I want to go to the Reincarnation Bureau. I heard that you can accumulate a lot of merit there, and it's easy to do so!"
Just as the crowd was getting agitated,
Two vast and somewhat familiar divine powers descended.
The newcomers were none other than Di Jun and Tai Yi, who had been drawn here by these demons.
The entire reception area fell silent instantly.
All the demon souls watched the two figures with excitement.
That was their former belief.
They were willing to risk their lives to follow the emperor!
However, the expressions on Di Jun and Tai Yi's faces...
But it's not good-looking.
It even carries a complex emotion of a stampede of horses.
Di Jun's gaze swept over the familiar and unfamiliar faces below.
But they all wore faces filled with fervor and anticipation.
My heart was filled with mixed emotions.
This scene brings back memories of the past!
These were his former subjects, who fought and bled under his rule to support him.
Now, in order to follow him, he has chosen to give up his life.
They came to this netherworld in the form of a dead soul.
Di Jun was so moved he cried!
He took a deep breath, his voice heavy with emotion.
Echoing within the heart of every demon soul:
"My people!"
Just four words were enough to bring tears to the eyes of countless demon souls!
"...Your loyalty has been witnessed by me and His Majesty the Eastern Emperor!"
I am so pleased!
Di Jun continued,
His tone carried an unquestionable decisiveness.
"But the place you are in now is no longer the Heavenly Court of the past."
The Heavenly Emperor and I are no longer the same Heavenly Emperor and Eastern Emperor we once were!
Times have changed, my people!
I am now the Chief Judge of the Underworld's Laws, and the Eastern Emperor is the Guardian of the Netherworld.
Just like you were back then,
My brother and I are now subjects of Empress Pingxin.
Together with the ancestral witches of the witch clan, they assisted in managing reincarnation.
To maintain the primordial order of Yin and Yang.
Although Di Jun's words were reasonable, they didn't resonate with everyone.
It was like being shirtless in the dead of winter in Northeast China and being doused with cold water.
This left many demons feeling utterly chilled and their hearts soaring!
Taiyi was even more direct.
He stepped forward and said in an icy voice:
"I know you must have discussed it before coming, otherwise you wouldn't have come in such unison!"
But I'll be frank.
Put away your unrealistic fantasies!
The underworld is the place of reincarnation, a place of order!
There are no demons or witches, only the underworld!
Now that you have entered this underworld,
Therefore, one must abide by the laws of the underworld, be loyal to the Goddess Pingxin, and fulfill one's duties diligently!
All that has passed is as good as dead yesterday!
If someone harbors unwarranted arrogance and outwardly complies while inwardly defying orders...
Don't blame me for picking on your tough nut.
I will punish them severely according to the law, and I will show absolutely no leniency!
Donghuang's words were like a heavy hammer.
The impact shattered the already frozen souls of many demons!
They took their own lives and came full of anticipation.
Instead of the grateful and enthusiastic acceptance they had imagined from the two emperors, they were met with resistance.
Instead, it's a cold "admonition" and "drawing a line"?!
"The world has changed!"
"The heart of a demon is no longer what it used to be!"
"I miscalculated!"
Di Jun looked down at the demon souls below who suddenly became agitated and looked puzzled.
His tone softened slightly, though reluctantly, but he remained firm:
Forget your identity as a demon!
That's all in the past now.
I know you are being oppressed by the forces of Heaven and are having a very hard time.
But now that we're here...
In this underworld, you will have a new beginning.
To gain merit and status through one's own abilities and achievements.
The underworld has its own justice and will never mistreat any conscientious soul!
This is your real way out now.
This is also our final expectation for you, both Donghuang and I!
"Trying to forget the past and pledge allegiance to the underworld?!"
More demon souls were stunned! Dumbfounded!
Some even broke down!
What did we gain by sacrificing everything?!
Is it really just that he's moved to a different place to work as a foreign laborer?!
The complaining crowd looked at Di Jun and Tai Yi's serious faces, which left no room for negotiation.
Then, feel the aura of a true sage emanating from them.
A vast aura closely connected to the underworld.
Then I thought about how I was now a dead soul. Where else could I go but the underworld?
"Okay! It's not impossible!"
Anyway, I came here hoping for the treatment of the underworld!
"If you can use the back door, then use the back door; if you can't, then it's not a bad situation either!"
Although the demon souls felt a little regretful
But upon careful reflection of what Di Jun and the other person had just said:
"A new beginning", "Justice in the underworld", "Merit and status"!
These stimulating words have illuminated the path for some souls who refuse to succumb to despair!
"Perhaps His Majesty is right?!"
In any case, the demon race is basically extinct in name only.
Without the Demon Emperor and the Eastern Emperor, Nuwa and Xi Huang are as if they don't exist; there's absolutely no hope for them!
"Perhaps clinging to the past is indeed meaningless!"
Now, in this underworld, at least we can still see two emperors.
At least... I'll have a stable job and a future!
Complex and diverse emotions spread through the souls of the demon race.
but no matter,
Di Jun and Tai Yi's attitudes are already very clear.
These remnants of the demon race are all dead now.
There is no choice but to merge into the underworld.
......
Inside the Temple of Peace,
The mirror that Tianqi and the ancestral witches are constructing through the power of reincarnation.
They watched with great interest the grand spectacle of Di Jun and Tai Yi jointly training the remnants of the demon race.
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
Gonggong grinned and said:
"That kid Di Jun is ruthless!"
He shows no mercy even to his old subordinates.
Zhu Rong snorted from the side and chimed in:
"That's more like it!"
Are you suggesting we let them form factions and create separate demon clans in the underworld?
Pingxin nodded slightly in her evaluation:
"Di Jun is now truly aware of the bigger picture and understands the gains and losses."
Such a swift and decisive action, though inevitably painful,
However, it is very beneficial to the long-term stability of the underworld!
They certainly lived up to our trust and nurtured us!
Xuanming smiled and looked at Tianqi, saying:
"Thirteenth brother, are you satisfied now?"
These remnants of the demon race were tricked into going to the underworld by you.
The roots have been completely eradicated.
Apocalypse waved his hand, stroking his chin.
Looking at the demon souls reflected in the mirror, their expressions shifted from fervor to bewilderment, and finally to being forced to accept reality.
He grinned and said:
"Haha! Sister! How can this be called lying?!"
The welfare benefits in our underworld are all very real!
We've given them a chance to serve the people... oh no, that's not it.
This is a precious opportunity to contribute to the primordial cycle of reincarnation!
Free meals and accommodation, plus merit points – what a great company!
这得
It's a case of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit!
Don't blame me!
