Let me see which unlucky person is here to tell fortunes today

Shan Tianyi chuckled twice and directed his attack at Zhong Kui.

"You say I'm a villain, but Zhong Kui, you're not a good person either."

"When I was still in the narrow room, I had already used the body possession to replace many people. Many of the things I wanted to do could be done smoothly. But since the so-called Judge's Pen became popular on the Internet, I started to investigate."

"The investigation has not made any progress, and I have also realized that things are not simple."

"I thought we didn't have much in common, so I wouldn't mind if you guys messed things up a few times, but you guys discovered the secret of the narrow space."

"Later, you used the Chinese dragon vein to catch us off guard. I had no choice but to flee in a hurry. From then on, our feud was sealed."

"After coming out of the narrow room, I began to focus on investigating the origins of the Judge's Pen. I watched every live broadcast carefully. I didn't expect that I would find out that you and the underworld are not connected, but you are the ghost messengers from the underworld."

"In order to obtain more information, I bribed some evil Taoist priests who had connections with the underworld and asked them to help me investigate the underworld. I then learned that the four judges accidentally threw the pen into the Forgotten River in order to fight for it."

"This incident seemed unintentional, but after careful investigation, it was found that Zhong Kui did it on purpose."

Although what Shan Tianyi said was not credible, Zhong Kui did not refute it after he finished speaking.

Qiu Feng pulled Zhong Kui's clothes in disbelief and asked, "Old Zhong, what did he mean?"

Zhong Kui didn't say anything, and Shan Tianyi laughed even louder: "If he doesn't say it, I'll say it for him."

"Even when Zhong Kui was still a human, he already felt that the way of heaven was unfair. Good people did good things all their lives, but they could not have a good ending, while bad people could become Buddhas as long as they put down their butcher knives."

"He never understood this kind of unfairness until he entered the underworld and became one of the four judges. Only then did he realize that a person's life had already been planned."

“Whether they are evil or good, they are being saved throughout their lives. It’s just that some people are saved faster, while others are saved slower. And those evil people who are not saved will continue to do evil throughout their lives.”

"When Zhong Kui was in the human world, he saw too many people being killed without regard for their lives. He felt that a person who habitually did bad things should be sentenced to death and have his soul destroyed, or be thrown into the animal realm and never be reborn. Otherwise, how could he justify the innocent people he killed?"

"But his idea is not recognized by the Heavenly Dao."

"The Way of Heaven believes that mortals have their own destinies, and gods or immortals should not interfere too much. Even if they are pure evil, they should be destroyed for legitimate reasons."

"Because of this rule, countless innocent people like Wu Yue have become victims."

"Zhong Kui was determined to resist, but he was too weak to fight against the Heavenly Dao by himself, so he thought of someone."

"This person is you, Ji Chu, the most special existence in the underworld. Although you are just an ordinary judge's pen, your status in the underworld is not low. Not only are the affairs you usually manage in the underworld similar to those of the judges, but even the King of Hell gives you some face."

"In order to achieve his goal, Zhong Kui has been using his position to secretly throw the Judge's Pen of the Underworld into the Forgotten River since hundreds of years ago."

"These Judge's Pens have no intelligence at all. They are just pens. Under the corrosion of the Forgotten River, they gradually disappeared without a trace."

"The underworld is so big that no one would care where a pen goes. As time goes by, the number of judge's pens in the underworld becomes fewer and fewer until only the last one is left."

"That day was like usual. All four judges received their tasks, but at the end they had a disagreement on who should judge the case first. Zhong Kui had been looking forward to this day, so he took the opportunity to cause the other three judges to quarrel, and finally used the situation to throw Ji Chu into the Forgotten River."

Ji Chu was so shocked that she was speechless. Having worked in the underworld for a thousand years, she had long regarded her colleagues in the underworld as her most trusted partners.

She had never suspected that her being thrown into the River Oblivion was a conspiracy, but now not only was it exposed, but it was even exposed by her own enemies.

So what does it mean that she came to the mortal world, started a live broadcast, and saved so many people? Is it one of Zhong Kui's schemes?

Qiu Feng grabbed Zhong Kui by the collar and said, "Old Zhong, everything he said is a lie, right? Shan Tianyi is trying to sow discord, right?"

Seeing that Zhong Kui didn't say anything, Qiu Feng shook him frantically and asked, "Come on, tell me, is what he said true?"

Seeing the trio in front of him gradually collapsing from within before the fight even started, Dan Tianyi's smile deepened.

"See, he doesn't dare admit it."

"That's right. How dare he admit that he didn't dare to defy the will of heaven, so he asked his best friend to defy the will of heaven on his behalf?"

"When you accumulate enough merit, you can ascend to become an immortal. In fact, it is just accumulating the patience of the heaven."

"As long as there are too many people who disobey the laws of nature and affect too many mortals, the laws of nature will naturally send down thunder and kill those who disrupt the order of the mortal world."

"The trouble I caused you, Ji Chu, was just to get you struck by lightning sooner. It's only a matter of time."

"As for me, I do bad things openly, while Zhong Kui does bad things secretly. Who is nobler?"

Qiu Feng's hand slowly dropped. She looked at the man she had loved for many years in disbelief and slowly took two steps back.

"Xiao Chu, we won't get involved in this matter!"

"Humans have their own destiny. If you call me sister, I will never watch you disappear!"

"Come back with me, and we'll go find Boss Yan and admit our mistakes. Even if I have to be punished, I'm willing to do it!"

Qiu Feng reached out to hold Ji Chu's hand, but before she could touch him, Zhong Kui pulled her back.

"What are you doing? Let me go!"

"If the Heaven must kill Xiaochu, then I would rather die with her!"

"Who made me, like her, so easily believe in a despicable and shameless villain like you!"

Zhong Kui pursed his lips, and his face no longer had the usual weird look.

He looked at Ji Chu and said coldly, "Now that things have come to this, I have nothing to say. I entered the underworld with a lot of resentment. I wanted to show my abilities and change the injustice in the world, but later I realized how insignificant my power was."

"I have been in the underworld for so many years, and I have never stopped thinking about changing the rules. Every time I see the silence of the underworld's ghost officials in dealing with injustices in the human world, I get extremely angry, so I decided to take revenge."

"After careful consideration, I chose Ji Chu. First, because of your special identity, and second, because you are the only ghost messenger who responds to the injustices suffered by mortals."

"I thought you were in the same camp as me, but you are too peaceful. Unless you see it with your own eyes, you won't get involved in the affairs of the world. Because of your character, the King of Hell only assigned you to do some record-keeping work."

"So, I planned to have you return to the human world and tell you that as long as you accumulate merits, you can ascend to become an immortal."

"But in fact, that's not the case at all. I just want you to help me deal with those unfair things. When you are struck to death by the heaven, I will use the same trick again and arrange for a ghost messenger who is still alive to come to the human world."

"In this way, it can be regarded as a resistance to the way of heaven!"
