People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 167: The theory of the underworld, the response from the underworld!
"Empress Hou Tu, Great Heavenly Master Yang Xuan wants to see you!"

"Empress Hou Tu..."

Xuan Ma bowed to the earth, shouted three times at the top of his lungs, then gave Yang Xuan a thumbs up. His bruised face could not hide his smugness.

"Great Lord, it's done!"

Don't worry about me doing my job! The elders in the clan all say that I have a sharp mind!
If someone else wanted to meet Houtu, Xuanma would definitely take him to the underground reincarnation place and let Houtu decide whether to meet him.

But Yang Xuan is different. He is a distinguished guest of the Wu clan and has caught the attention of Hou Tu. Why should he go through so much trouble?
Anyway, with Yang Xuan's identity, Hou Tu will choose to meet him when he arrives at the underground reincarnation place.

If that's the case, why bother doing this? Why not just let Hou Tu come and take over?

"I'm so smart, how could I not know this?"

Xuan Ma felt more and more pleased, thinking that after this incident, he should be able to make up for the impoliteness of the past three thousand years. He could gain Yang Xuan's forgiveness and would not delay Hou Tu's affairs. It was indeed a great achievement!
Yang Xuan: ???
No, what are you doing? Isn't this a little bit rude?

I asked you to introduce me to someone, to take me to the underground reincarnation place to meet the queen, not to call the queen over. Hey, how can you do things like this? ! !
Hearing Xuan Ma shouting three times in a row, his voice resounding throughout an area of ​​billions of miles, Yang Xuan felt sick.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Xuanma's behavior is not polite.

He still vividly remembers the tragic scene of the River Styx three thousand years ago. He does not have the ability of the River Styx. If Houtu slaps him, even if he now has the foundation of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, he will not be able to withstand it.

But Xuan Ma's three shouts did not give any sign at all, and Yang Xuan had no chance to stop him.

By the time he reacted, Xuanma had already shouted three times. The only thing he could do now was to find a way to make amends, so as to avoid being slapped to death by Houtu for his disrespect.

Om-!
At this moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended, and the surrounding space seemed to be frozen, the wind stopped, the spiritual energy no longer flowed, and everything was frozen at this moment.

But soon, everything returned to normal.

Followed by.

Then a loud 'bang' was heard, and Xuanma was blown away like a ball tens of millions of miles away, smashing many mountains along the way.

"Oh no! My little brother is lost!"

Bixiao was the first to come back to his senses. Seeing Yang Xuan, who had been standing next to him, disappear, his face suddenly changed.

"Don't worry, Queen Bixiao. The Great Celestial Venerable will be fine. I think the Queen is the only one in the Netherworld who has this ability."

Xuanniu was not at all panicked. He lowered his head to look at the ground. Bixiao also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

With the lady watching over me, I'm sure nothing will happen to me.

She didn't think about it anymore, took out a few innate spiritual fruits, squatted on the ground and started eating them with Qingluan and others.

at the same time.

Yang Xuan only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he could see his surroundings clearly again, he found a huge and boundless disk appeared in front of him.

In front of this disc, there was a beautiful woman standing in front.

She was wearing a goose yellow fairy dress, with mountains, plains and the six realms of reincarnation trailing behind her skirt.

The earth veins are his bones, the green mountains outline his eyebrows, his skin is as white as cream, his nose is tall and straight, and his lips are bright red.

His whole body exudes an aura as heavy and soothing as that of the earth.

It is none other than Hou Tu, the former ancestor witch, and Ping Xin, the current saint!
She looked at Yang Xuan with a faint smile on her face and asked in a gentle voice:
"You came to me because of the Netherworld Rules?"

After what happened in the Styx, she was both looking forward to and a little worried about Yang Xuan's arrival.

As early as when Yang Xuan first used the Yibao Divine Art to activate the power of the underground tunnel (Chapter 22) to lead the souls of the living and the dead into the underworld, she had a vague feeling that Yang Xuan might be able to bring some changes to the underworld in the future.

For this purpose, she deliberately devoted some of her attention to Yang Xuan.

She had seen everything Yang Xuan had done over the years, which made her more certain of her original feeling that Yang Xuan would bring new changes to the underworld.

Because of this, she responded to what Yang Xuan did time and time again, hoping that Yang Xuan would understand what she meant and come to the underworld to shine as soon as possible.

As a result, before Yang Xuan arrived, the Styx came first and defecated a big thing.

After her years of hard work, the witch clan gradually adapted to the environment of the underworld and could begin their plan of reproduction.

The number of members of the Wu Clan is simply too small, and cannot be compared to their heyday.

Even when dealing with matters concerning the Six Paths of Reincarnation, she only asked the members of the Wu Clan to help when they were free, but the reproduction of the Wu Clan was still the top priority.

As a result, Minghe did not think about how to reduce the burden of the witch clan and speed up the reproduction of the witch clan, but also asked them to devote themselves to the affairs of the six reincarnations. Isn't this forcing the witch clan into a dead end?

If the underworld really recognized the rules set by the Styx at that time, she, Hou Tu, would forcibly stop it even at the risk of causing dissatisfaction from the underworld.

Otherwise, if the Witch Clan really acts according to the 129,600 local rules, they will never be able to make a breakthrough.

Now that Yang Xuan has also come to the Netherworld at this point in time, she can't help but feel worried. She is afraid that Yang Xuan will be like the Styx, and in order to gain authentic merits, he wants to establish Netherworld rules that are unfavorable to the Witch Clan.

However, Yang Xuan's answer was far beyond her expectations.

Yang Xuan straightened his clothes and bowed respectfully, doing everything meticulously and there was no sign of any problem.

"Your Highness Hou Tu, I am seeking an audience this time not to establish the rules of the Netherworld, but to help you solve the current predicament of the Netherworld."

From the beginning to the end, he never thought that he could establish the rules of the underworld and gain authentic merit in one step.

Since it is a rule, it needs to have an object to which it applies.

The Heavenly Laws were established for the immortals and gods in Heaven, but the underworld does not have a law enforcement agency like Heaven. What is the point of establishing Earthly Laws?
You can't use the rules of the land to restrict all creatures in the underworld, or use the rules of the land to regulate the actions of the witch clan. It should be called clan rules, not land rules.

Even if a rule suitable for the witch clan is finally established, it will not be recognized by the underground, let alone obtain the underground merit.

Judging from the fact that Xuan Ma was ready to fight at the first sign of a disagreement, he might even offend the Wu Clan. How could Yang Xuan make such a low-level mistake?

It is precisely because he knew this that when Yang Xuan established the Heavenly Rules, he did not worry that the merit of establishing the Earthly Rules would be snatched away by others.

Even if someone realizes through the matter of Heavenly Law that establishing Earthly Regulations can gain a huge amount of Earthly Merit, it is hard to think of the need to first establish a law enforcement agency.

The final outcome is likely to be similar to that of the Styx, not only losing face but also offending Hou Tu.

Even if someone thinks that the underworld should be like the ancient times, it needs a law enforcement agency like the heaven.

But the netherworld is too big and closely connected to the prehistoric world. Even if they could think of this, without the memory of later generations, it would be difficult to create even a framework without several Yuanhui if they wanted to improve this law enforcement agency out of thin air. Yang Xuan was different. Not only did he have relevant memories of later generations, he also began to improve the netherworld law enforcement agency based on the known prehistoric situation many years ago.

This time, he came with at least 95% certainty!

"Oh? Tell me about it, my friend."

When Hou Tu heard this, she was stunned at first, then she laughed at herself in her heart.

Based on my understanding of him, there should be no such worry. If even he behaves as stupidly as Minghe, I'm afraid no one will be able to help the underworld.

Judging from his style of doing things, since he has come, he must have a reliable plan.

Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation appeared on his face.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Yang Xuan always felt that the distance between Hou Tu and himself seemed to have shortened a lot, as if she was right in front of him.

However, the saint's situation was too special, and Yang Xuan felt that he and Hou Tu were in two different worlds, separated by an immeasurable distance.

Yang Xuan didn't think much about it. There was no point in keeping the question from a saint in suspense.

He first bowed, very politely.

I understand the rules!
Afterwards, Yang Xuan spoke out the speech he had prepared long ago:

"According to my investigations over the years, the problems in the Netherworld can be roughly divided into two points."

"First, the Netherworld lacks a sound law enforcement agency."

"Nowadays, many affairs in the netherworld can only be maintained by relying on the instincts of the earth, as well as the Empress and fellow Taoists of the Wu Clan."

"It is difficult for the Netherworld to play the role it should in the prehistoric world, and it will also take up the time of the Empress and fellow Taoists of the Wu Clan."

“If there is a law enforcement agency like the Heavenly Court that is compatible with the Netherworld, not only will the Empress and fellow Wu Clan Taoists have more time to do what they want.”

"It can also better maintain the operation of the Netherworld, stabilize the order of the wilderness, and make the life and death of the creatures in the wilderness orderly."

Hearing this, Hou Tu's eyes became noticeably brighter.

"I said that Young Master Yang Xuan is not a fool like Minghe. It is impossible for him to do such a stupid thing!"

Just by hearing Yang Xuan point out a problem in the underworld, Hou Tu felt completely relieved.

Obviously, Yang Xuan has seen the plight of the Wu Clan, so it is impossible for him to formulate a strategy targeting the Wu Clan and will not delay the reproduction of the Wu Clan.

In this way, Hou Tu's bottom line will not be touched, so no matter what Yang Xuan thinks about the law enforcement agencies in the underworld, he can talk about it.

Seeing this, Yang Xuan's 95% confidence in his heart increased by another 3 points, knowing that this matter was basically settled. After pausing for a moment, he continued:

"The second reason is that there are too few living beings in the Netherworld, and the Wu Clan's situation is too special. They are born without a soul, so it is not appropriate for them to do some trivial matters."

“If there are enough living beings in the Netherworld to help deal with the affairs of the Netherworld, the Wu Clan Taoists can not only greatly reduce the pressure, but also add a bit of luck and blessing, just like the Dragon Clan in the Heavenly Palace, and eliminate some of the karma on their bodies.”

These insights are Yang Xuan's reflections on the current shortcomings of the underworld based on the situation in later generations.

Even Hou Tu could not be sure of the future. Perhaps she had noticed the problems in the Netherworld, but she was not as specific and to the point as him, and it was even more impossible for her to have any idea about establishing the underworld.

Otherwise, with the status of a saint, it would not be difficult to invite a group of living beings to rule the netherworld and jointly establish the underworld? How could the netherworld be like this?

Hou Tu listened quietly to Yang Xuan's analysis, her eyes became brighter, and her heart was filled with turbulent waves.

Just these few words made her certain that Yang Xuan's understanding of the underworld was unparalleled in the world.

She had indeed noticed the two issues raised by Yang Xuan, but she was not necessarily more thorough than Yang Xuan in seeing them. These were the issues that had troubled her for many years.

Now that she heard Yang Xuan bring up this matter, Hou Tu immediately showed a hint of joy, and without thinking too much, she asked directly:
"My friend, do you have a solution?"

"Reporting to the queen, I do have some humble opinions."

Yang Xuan bowed with great courtesy.

With my considerate manners, I think it can add a bit of chance to this matter. Ninety-nine percent, that's enough!
He showed a confident smile and continued:
"In the tunnel, there must be a management organization similar to the heaven, it can be called the underworld!"

Om-!
As soon as the word "Hell" came out, the Netherworld seemed to tremble slightly, and the power of the earth manifested. A large amount of black mist emerged around, and a pair of dark and majestic eyes gathered behind Hou Tu, staring at Yang Xuan silently.

When Hou Tu saw this, she was immediately shocked.

Just mentioning the name of this law enforcement agency is enough to attract the attention of the underground forces.

This shows that the existence of this "Underworld" has been recognized by the underworld, which is a matter of great significance to the underworld!
This also made Hou Tu even more excited about what Yang Xuan would say next.

Yang Xuan looked at the eyes condensed by the power of the earth, and the smile on his face became more confident.

Ten percent!

Now it’s really stable!

Even the tunnel was attracted here, what else could go wrong?
Just ...

Why does it feel like this lady is getting closer? Is it my imagination?

right! That must be it!

It must be because my mood has changed, so my perception of saints has also changed. Saints are so powerful!
After a brief sigh, Yang Xuan continued:

"In the netherworld there should be the underworld, and in the underworld there should be the Ten Kings of Hell, the ghost messengers and the generals of the underworld!"

"There should be a city god in the world to count the births and deaths of the creatures in the area under his jurisdiction, so that the life and death of the creatures are in order!"

"For the souls who have committed heinous crimes, there should be eighteen levels of hell for them to serve their sentences. Only after they have redeemed themselves from their past life's sins can they be reincarnated!"

"The dead souls go through the gates of hell, walk along the Yellow Springs Road, and cross the Naihe Bridge!"

"People who have been reincarnated should drink a decoction to forget their past and have a new beginning!"

Yang Xuan spoke eloquently, and his ideas about the system of the underworld came out one sentence after another.
