The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

After hearing what Mrs. Sheng San said, Lu Zhaoling was silent for a moment.

She grasped a key point: everything might be caused by a major event that happened nearly a hundred years ago.

Perhaps at that time the world had gone off the right track and was in chaos.

The emperor said, "When dynasties changed, the world was already in chaos." He also grasped this point from Mrs. Sheng San's words, "At that time, the plague was everywhere, the unrest was endless, and many people died."

Lu Zhaoling looked at him and asked, "Was that a hundred years ago?"

"It's always been said that it was in the last hundred years, but it should be more than that. The world was in chaos. Judging from the history books, it must have been more than two hundred years ago. The previous dynasty was always in chaos. In addition to our Great Zhou Dynasty, the neighboring Qian Kingdom was also in chaos."

"At that time, there were many natural disasters, and refugees were everywhere. Stories of people eating their own children were common. Unofficial history also records that everyone felt hopeless. Some prophets even predicted that the end of the world was coming, that mountains and rivers would collapse, and that every life would be lost."

Lu Zhaoling was silent.

Was there a doomsday prophecy so many years ago?

"Later, both Qian State and the Great Zhou emerged from the turbulent times. Thinking about it now, there's a sense of rebirth." The retired emperor sighed, "But the establishment of a new dynasty also involves stepping on many bones."

Upon hearing this, Madam Sheng San couldn't help but say, "I heard from the Black and White Envoys that the temporary peace in the world, which has prevented the world from collapsing, is most likely the result of the best efforts of several parties to save the world."

"You mean, Lord Yama, Judge, the reason they go through reincarnation is to save the world?" asked the retired emperor.

"It's not just them." Madam Sheng San glanced at Lu Zhaoling and added, "From what they said, there are others, and they are very powerful people."

Lu Zhaoling didn't know why, but she immediately thought of Lu Ming.

Could it be that her father was one of them?

If the world falls into chaos, Xuanmen certainly cannot stand idly by.

However, now the fortune of the Great Zhou is fading again, and the dragon veins are damaged. Is there someone who can't stand the peace in the world and wants to cause chaos in the world?

"Now there are evil practitioners everywhere..." The emperor was also worried.

Madam Sheng San said, "The Black and White Envoys said that a peaceful world would put too much pressure on evil cultivators and ghost cultivators. After all, their cultivation methods go against human nature and the laws of the world. If they want to cultivate more powerfully, they need a more chaotic world. Moreover, if they can reach a very powerful level, they also need a chaotic world to allow them to display their abilities."

If the world is peaceful, anyone who uses evil magic to harm someone will be hunted down and it will disturb the will of heaven.

Then what is the point of their cultivation?

What they want is chaos in the world, everyone killing each other, and force and violence prevailing. Only in this way can the laws of nature no longer control so many things.

By then, no one will be able to stop them even if they use witchcraft to control thousands of people for their own use.

But the righteous path is to keep the world fair and just, and to punish evil with evil.

Therefore, good and evil cannot coexist since ancient times.

"We have to find Lord Yan." Lu Zhaoling said.

No matter what King Yan did in the past, the underworld now needs him to come back and guard it.

"There are also the Great Zhou, the Qian Kingdom, and other tribes. They all need to resonate with the national destiny."

Lu Zhaoling looked at the Emperor Retired and said, "After returning, the Emperor Retired must help look after the Great Zhou royal family. If the Emperor becomes increasingly incompetent, he must support the new Emperor."

If this were said in the mortal world, Lu Zhaoling would feel that he was meddling too much and that this was simply outrageous.

Zhou Shiyue might not have said so openly about supporting the new emperor.

But saying this in the underworld always feels quite normal.

The retired emperor didn't think anything was wrong. He nodded vigorously, "You're right! If the emperor still wants to help Zhou Ling ascend to the throne, I will pull him down!"

He said this viciously, as if he wanted to take the emperor to the underworld immediately and not let him go back.

Lu Zhaoling stroked his forehead.

"So, Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai and the others really can't find King Yan?" Lu Zhaoling asked Madam Sheng San.

“I really can’t find it.”

Madam Sheng San quietly approached her and asked in a low voice, "Master Lu, tell me, could you be Lord Yan?"

"????"

Lu Zhaoling stared at her with wide eyes.

Madam Sheng San blinked and pointed to the Judge's Hall. "Young Master Yin has suddenly become the Judge. You are his senior sister, so you might as well be Lord Yama."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Zhaoling thought her imagination was quite wild. "I've seen Lord Yan before!"

Uh, yeah.

Madam Sheng San just remembered this and she was quite disappointed.

If Master Lu is King Yama, then she must be a ghost with a powerful backer in the underworld.

It’s quite impressive just to think about it.

Even the emperor was shocked by her guess.

"Xiao Sheng, you can't talk nonsense."

If Master Ling is King Yan, what should we do with that brat Zhou Shiyue?

This won't work.

"Let's go in and have a look."

Lu Zhaoling sneaked into the Judge's Hall with them from the back.

"Sister."

Jin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her come back.

He always felt uneasy when the eldest sister didn't come back. The same was true for abstaining from food. Although this was the place of Benefactor Yin, he knew the old Yin Yunting, not the Yin Yunting who had become the judge now.

"What are you doing here?"

This is a small compartment behind the main hall. There is a bed, a table and chairs. The two children are sitting here waiting, very obediently.

Jin Yuan pointed to the front hall.

"We can hear what the eldest brother said in the front hall from here."

It sounds quite fun.

Lu Zhaoling heard this and listened for a while.

"Ms. Yu of Jianghuai, aged fifty-one, choked to death while eating a date. In life, neither good nor evil, she lived an ordinary life. I am sentenced to be reborn as the second son of an ordinary farmer. Go."

"next."

"Nan Shao Feng Ran, a man who bullied men and women, was sentenced to death by the mortal world's government. His body was dismembered and he died at the age of thirty-nine. He is sentenced to be reborn as a wild boar. Go."

Madam Sheng San and the retired emperor both came over, and their eyes widened when they heard Yin Yunting's voice.

"What basis does Xiao Yin base his judgment on?" The retired emperor was also very curious.

He had never thought that he could actually hear the Judge of the Underworld deciding the reincarnation of ghosts. It sounded like good would be rewarded with good and evil would be punished with evil?

However, when these people are reincarnated, they will forget their past lives and will continue to do evil.

It was also the first time that Lu Zhaoling heard his senior disciple acting as a judge and he wanted to sneak into the front hall to take a look.

"It should be Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai who are helping."

In the end, she didn't sneak over to take a peek.

When Yin Yunting left the hall, several pairs of eyes looked at him brightly.

"Senior Brother, do you remember everything?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

Yin Yunting shook his head.

"No. I just have the Soul Book, and the two Black and White Envoys are there to remind me. I'm familiar with it after practicing it for a while."
