Yama Rising

Chapter 613: Divine Witnesses (1)

Do you think he’s actually working hard?

That’s right, the man was doing exactly what regular human beings liked to do - watching variety shows. Furthermore, he was incredibly picky, and was naturally toggling through the shows on different channels.

“Yin Construction Division One has already arrived at the designated location, and they’re requesting for materials to be sent.” “Yin Construction Division Seven has also arrived at the designated location, and have reported that there are building ruins that have collapsed through the rift. They are applying for permission for demolition of these buildings.” “Yin Construction Division Three has arrived at the designated location, but have reported that the terrain is treacherous, and they would unfortunately have to halt works while an expert assesses ground suitability for works.”

Clatter! The Second King Yanluo was laughing so hard at the shows that he nearly fell off his chair. Just then, he heard the Harken tap his pen impatiently, and he promptly sat up with a straight expression and responded coolly, “What’s the matter?”

Sigh… I’m used to it. What can I say? That’s how things have always been. It was naive of me to think that things would be different when he returned from his trip out…

“Must he go?” The Second King Yanluo frowned and took a sip from the cup of tea in front of him.

“Four, the new Hell doesn’t even have a name just yet. It needs a name. Five, we shouldn’t give different cities different developmental opportunities. Balanced development is the way forward. Six--... I’m just repeating the things you’ve taught me in the past!!!”

“Then, why don’t you go on behalf of--...”

At once, the room was silent. The Second King Yanluo shut his eyes for several moments. Then, when he finally opened his eyes, he also revealed a faint smile on his face.

“I finally feel at ease leaving my position to you.” He smiled and waved his hand casually in the air. At once, a spatial rift tore open, revealing the image of a ship chugging along the waters.

“These realms are incredibly interesting after all…”

Whoosh… Several figures marched out of the darkness of the Yin energy around, only to be greeted by dazzling resplendence. They were back in Ashmound City, right at the top floor of the City Tower where the Mythic Palace of Reflections was located!

“Greetings, Second King Yanluo!” “Greetings to the Yanluo of Hell!” At once, the six returning Yin spirits immediately knelt down in unison. Wang Chenghao and Oda Nobutada also knelt down at the same time. Meanwhile, Kwon Kyung-ho and Ryu Changmin simply felt a buzz in their heads. It was akin to a human seeing the vast universe out there for the very first time. The pressure was so immense that they subconsciously knelt to the ground without even realizing it.

What kind of cultivation does he have?

It was several classes beyond his imagination.

Before the trip to Daehan, Qin Ye had been exactly how he appeared - completely harmless. But now, he might appear as harmless as a hairball, but one could no longer ignore the niggling sensation in their hearts that the ostensible harmless facade might well be concealing sharp steel needles within.

“You’ve done well.” He praised Qin Ye and nodded with approbation, “You’ve exceeded my expectations. If this were an examination of a maximum score of 100 marks, you would almost have obtained the perfect score.”

“I’ll give you one chance to adopt a different response!”

Meanwhile, the six scholars who had returned felt incredibly assured at the sight of the Second King Yanluo of Hell.

“Your Excellency…” The Yin spirits stood up, and Zhang Zhongjing immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands, “Can you… really not stay any longer?”

“This is going to be the start of a brand new era, with neither the baggage nor the prosperity of yesteryears. You’ll be pioneering and forging your own success ahead.”

He retracted his gaze, swept a gaze around, and then cupped his hands respectfully at them all, “Everyone, you’ve worked hard.”

But this time, they were no longer at the pavilion, but an island instead. There was a transparent stone on the island, yet it appeared to contain the profundities of reincarnation in the world. A lush peach tree provided shelter overhead, and endless peach blossoms continuously fell from the tree.

“Qin Ye, receive the edict.” With his back to Qin Ye, the Second King Yanluo waved his hand, and a golden scroll suddenly appeared right in front of him, held up only by countless illusory roots of the lotuses. It only took Qin Ye a single glance at the scroll before his knees weakened and cold sweat beaded up on his forehead. He could sense some kind of supreme heavenly divine power contained in the scrolls.

“Let the great gods of the heavens, the five sovereigns, namely the Wood Sovereign Taihao, the Flame Sovereign Yan Emperor, the Earth Sovereign Yellow Emperor, the Gold Sovereign Shaohao, the Water Sovereign Zhuanxu, and the Jade Emperor, and the founding Yanluo of Hell and other heavenly envoys, gods and deities bear witness.”

This is the imperial edict…

The imperial edict wasn’t short by any means. At first, there wasn’t much more than the usual platitudes. But as time wore on, he soon discovered that the entire world appeared to fade away, and a new world seemed to take its place.

He looked over through the lenses of a god, and he saw creatures that appeared no different from human beings, save that they had large ears and long tails. They were decked out in a wide variety of clothes, ranging from dated Cathayan garments to modern attire. Some were even dressed in ancient leather skirts and clothes.

The demon race…

As soon as he looked over, all of the demons immediately perked up their spirits, almost as though they could sense his presence. At once, they gasped in consternation, and the bonfire in the middle of the village suddenly rushed up into the sky like a column of fire. With a loud bang, the entire village full of men, women and children immediately shuddered and lay prostrate on the ground, shouting at the top of their voices, “We rejoice with King Yanluo on his ascension to the throne!!”

He willed his perspective to shift up towards where the source of the summons was beckoning from. At once, his perspective pierced through the layers of white clouds, and rose higher and higher into the sky… until he finally saw a cloud-topped heavenly palace located right behind the white clouds!

The central gate in the region had two words written on it - Heaven’s Gate!
