After breaking up with my girlfriend, I became a Great Sage of the Demon Clan.

"You've come at the perfect time; the coffee is at its most fragrant temperature."

Zhou Yan said wearily.

"I've always been lucky."

Zhou Yan picked up his coffee, took a sip, and then turned to look at the crowds coming and going in the rain outside the window.

Among these people are office workers, blue-collar workers doing manual labor, taxi drivers, and wealthy people driving private cars. The coming and going of these people form what we call the human world, and it seems that many phantoms can be seen in each of them.

Zhou Yan said with a sigh.

"I suddenly felt that it was very unfair."

Little Yama remained silent.

"Some people are born extraordinary, some are born with disabilities, some people can achieve success easily, and some people can only end up in a miserable state after giving their all."

Little Yama said calmly.

“From a modern perspective, you might think that people in this world are suffering, but if you look through history books, you can find out how many famines there were every year, how many people froze to death every winter, and where the stories of exchanging children to eat came from.”

Little Yama cupped his face in one hand, looking at Zhou Yan with a beaming smile.

Do you know the Central Dipper Star Lord?

Zhou Yan nodded.

Little Yama lowered his eyelids.

"The old man was born in a chaotic world. At first, he was a literate accountant. Because he was one of the few educated people in the village, he was engaged to a beautiful girl in the village a long time ago. However, during the famine, Wei Yong met with his sweetheart in the morning and confessed his love. In the afternoon, he saw his sweetheart with half of her body hanging in the butcher shop in town."

Zhou Yan was visibly shocked.

Little Yama sighed.

"The old man's sweetheart was sold by her father. Not only did he sell his sweetheart, but he also sold her mother a while ago, all so that his children would have something to eat."

"After that, Wei Yong reluctantly sold himself to the local landlord as a bonded laborer, exchanged a few copper coins for it, went to the butcher shop to buy his beloved's thigh and buried it properly. According to him, he almost fainted from crying in front of his beloved's grave back then."

"And this..."

Little Yama tapped the table with his finger.

"It is common in history. If you look at any of the six characters in the history of the dynasties, such as 'great famine, people eating each other,' it represents this kind of tragedy, or even worse. In the Zizhi Tongjian, the phrase 'people eating each other' appears 33 times and 'great famine' appears 41 times."

Little Yama began to shake his head.

"What are horror movies compared to this? I've lived for over a hundred years, and every time I see the great famine and cannibalism in history books, those few words send chills down my spine and make my legs tremble. That's blood. That's horror. You can still smell the blood in history books thousands of years later."

Zhou Yan: "..."

Zhou Yan suddenly remembered that Zhongdou Xingjun had told him that the chaotic world He knew was when many people knew "what human flesh tastes like".

At the time, Zhou Yan didn't feel much when he heard it, but now, combined with the words of the search engine √u:〔√肆∠·跁陑≮缌⊥〕－《彡◆{潾物小阎君, Zhou Yan's hair stood on end and cold sweat seeped from his forehead.

What exactly did Zhongdou Xingjun go through back then?

Little Yama looked at Zhou Yan with a mocking expression.

“Young man, you haven’t experienced the chaos of war yet, so you don’t know what true human tragedy is. Once you have, you’ll know that even living like a beggar now would have been like living in paradise in the past.”

"This is the progress of the times. You can say that life is hopeless now, you can say that the upper class does not treat the lower class as human beings, but this era is indeed a fairyland that the lower class could only dream of in the past."

Little Yama picked up his coffee and took a sip.

"Take a good look at history books, and you'll know just how fortunate we are in today's society."

Zhou Yan was silent for a few seconds before speaking.

"Happiness is relative. Perhaps the current social environment is indeed much better than in the past, but life has too many regrets. After I die, I will not be myself anymore."

After death, emotions and memories are constantly lost. After being reincarnated in the underworld, even if there is a concept of a past life, a large part of a person is no longer themselves.

Zhou Yan, using his omniscience, saw that after a person is reincarnated three times, they become a completely new individual, entirely different from the person from three lifetimes ago.

It's like a computer that replaces some hardware every now and then. Even if the computer still has the same name, its internal components have been completely updated and it's no longer the same as it was at the beginning.

And how many regrets can be fulfilled between these three generations?

Aren't most people still stuck in the cycle of being at the bottom?

Therefore, most people, even if they reincarnate three times and become a new consciousness, will not be able to enjoy the wealth and power of those at the top, or get the woman or goddess they like.

This is nothing more than sinking into a sea of ​​suffering.

Little Yama joked.

"So you want to make up for the regrets of these mortals?"

Zhou Yan nodded vigorously.

“I agree with Vacuum Living Buddha’s idea of ​​saving all sentient beings, but Brother Yan, what you said is also true. History is always moving forward. Vacuum Living Buddha’s Little Western Paradise is just an advanced VR. It’s not worth exchanging the future of all mankind for it.”

Zhou Yan clasped his hands together.

"So, let's find a compromise."

Zhou Yan's eyes lit up.

"Brother Yan, send all the dead to Little Western Paradise, which I control. These people had regrets in life, so after they die, they can come to Little Western Paradise to fulfill all their regrets. After they've had their fill, they can be sent to reincarnation to continue being alive. What do you say?"

After obtaining Little Western Paradise, Zhou Yan pondered for a long time, wondering what he would use it for.

After much thought, Zhou Yan realized that the greatest use of this Little Western Paradise was actually to bring people happiness.

Because the foundation of Little Western Paradise is the Great Perfect Mirror Wisdom, which mainly explores the pain and hope in people's hearts, and then subdues these pains and shortcomings, bringing people great bliss, great liberation, and great freedom.

毕竟真空活佛修炼是降三世明王的法相，降三世明王的神通就是这个，专业94∪82◆433‰0≯∥5肿¤∧：对口。

Therefore, Zhou Yan decided to resume his old profession as the Living Buddha of Emptiness, to bring liberation and happiness to all sentient beings.

Of course, this cannot conflict with the future of humanity. Fortunately, Xiao Yanjun is the second-in-command of the underworld and has extremely high power in the underworld, so Zhou Yan has made up his mind.

They don't need to bring joy to the living; they just wait until people are about to die, then send them to Little Western Paradise to fulfill their regrets and shortcomings in life.

Therefore, everyone can attain ultimate bliss.

In the three cycles, Zhou Yan wanted everyone to have enjoyed themselves, to have been happy, to have been a superior person without any regrets, before becoming another person.

Little Yama looked at Zhou Yan with a smile.

"If I didn't want to help you, I wouldn't have come here to have coffee with you."

Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, let me explain beforehand."

Little Yama's expression tightened.

"Later I will find the Book of Life and Death. I will access the information of the dead. Normal people can be sent to your Little Western Paradise. Those who have enjoyed themselves and committed evil deeds should go to hell to suffer."

Little Yama dislikes the idea of ​​good and evil going unpunished, but this society is truly a dog-eat-dog world, and governing the country with morality is foolish. So Little Yama doesn't demand that good and evil be rewarded in real society, but when he goes to the underworld, to Zhou Yan's Little Western Paradise, Little Yama will never let bad people have an easy time or let good people suffer.

Zhou Yan nodded.

"It is the right thing to do."

Zhou Yan lacked the compassionate heart of a living Buddha who could save all sentient beings, so the young people felt that those wealthy and high-ranking officials who had enjoyed their wealth enough should not compete for the spots at Little Western Paradise. They felt that these guys would only increase Zhou Yan's burden by coming to Little Western Paradise.

As for those criminals and villains, what a joke! They've done all sorts of bad things in their lives, and now they want to die in comfort and bliss?

Zhou Yan absolutely did not want a good person to go through eighty-one tribulations to become a Buddha, while a bad person could lay down their butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot.

Therefore, the service targets of Little Western Paradise are ordinary people who have never enjoyed it, as well as some good people. Ordinary people are given a hundred years to enjoy it, which is considered an extra life to enjoy it.

Good people can have their time extended according to the records in the Book of Life and Death, and enjoy more bliss.

Little Yan and Zhou Yan discussed these matters openly, and they pieced together some rules. They talked until the rain stopped and the sun shone down from the sky.

Sunlight illuminated Xiao Yanjun's private room. Xiao Yanjun reviewed the plan he and Zhou Yan had devised for utilizing Xiao Xitian, and then asked a question.

"When will this Little Western Paradise open? I have hundreds of millions of ghosts that I can send to you to enjoy."

Zhou Yan shrugged.

"You still don't believe it? My awakening level is low, and I can't withstand the consumption of hundreds of millions of people, um... so..."

Zhou Yan licked his lips.

"Brother Yan, can you do me a favor?"

"What kind of help?"

"Take me to Yinglong."

Zhou Yan obtained the memories of the Living Buddha of Emptiness, the Monk of No Desire, the Monk of No Birth, and tens of millions of people within the Great Perfect Mirror Wisdom. Searching through these memories, Zhou Yan discovered a place that appeared to be the Yinglong Dojo.

Chapter 1 Qing≠Private)Pa＝/24◎+Disheveled Searchˉ●: Qiu

The Abyss Underworld, Level 150.

The imperial carriage passed through the dark sky. Little Yama would occasionally turn his head, and the mummified eunuch inside the carriage would open the window, allowing Little Yama to see everything outside.

There's a saying that the higher the level of the Abyss Underworld, the stronger the monsters become.

Therefore, most Awakened Ones only scavenge for various treasures and immortal plants in the first fifty levels of the Abyss Underworld. A few powerful demigod Awakened Ones can scavenge up to the 55th level of the Underworld, while the more powerful true god Awakened Ones can only scavenge up to the 100th level of the Abyss Underworld.

The 150th level of the Abyss Underworld, which Little Yama is currently inspecting, is completely covered by death energy and yin energy. Not to mention that mortals should not approach it, even a true god-level awakened being would have to rely on his divine spark to revive if he stayed here for a few days.

My body is beyond saving.

Of course, as the Central Ghost Emperor and the second-in-command of the Underworld, Little Yama felt like he was going home when he went down to the two hundred levels of the Avici Hell, without any sense of impropriety.

Each deity has its own authority, which also means that in certain aspects, there are aspects that other deities simply cannot match.

The imperial carriage, having traversed countless mountains and rivers, landed in front of the gate of an abandoned capital city with a plaque that read "Yindu" (meaning "Capital of the Underworld").

Little Yama opened the water mirror inside the Siyou Imperial Carriage, and then waved his hand.

Outside the Siyou Imperial Carriage, ghost generals led by Lü Bu, Bai Qi, Xiang Yu, and Li Jing appeared. Behind the ghost generals, except for Zeng Gui who stood alone on one side, hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers emerged from the Yin energy and lined up neatly behind their respective ghost generals.

Little Yama shouted in front of the water mirror.

"attack!"

Lü Bu, Bai Qi, Xiang Yu, and Li Jing each led their armies into the abandoned city.

The 150th level of the Abyss Underworld contains the Underworld Capital, filled with countless ghostly messengers, soldiers, judges, and spirits who have lost their consciousness.

A hundred years ago, during the era of Chi You, Little Yama, and Lu Wu, Lu Wu descended to the 150th level of the underworld to solve the problem of awakened beings being possessed. He arrived at this "Yin Du" and subsequently found the destiny chart hidden in the Ziwei Palace within the Yin Du.

Afterwards, he used the Destiny Plate to open the gate to the Heavenly Realm and sought help from the Ziwei Emperor and the Gouchen Emperor, but these two Heavenly Emperors ignored Lu Wu.

Later, Xiao Yanjun also came to this Yin Capital. After several battles, Xiao Yanjun discovered that in this "Yin Capital" there were not only the Ziwei Mansion, but also the Mansion of the Demon-Slaying Ancestor, the Gouchen Mansion, and a series of other great gods' mansions and temples.

The hilt of the True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword that Little Yama King brought to Xuanwu was dug out from the Demon-Subduing Ancestor's Mansion.

Of course, when he took out this sword hilt, he encountered countless hardships. Xiang Yu and Bai Qi, who were sent by Little Yama to retrieve the True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword, were almost killed several times before they finally broke into the Demon-Subduing Ancestor's Mansion and obtained the sword hilt from inside.

In order to win over Xuanwu, Little Yama King comes to Yindu every now and then to try to find one or two fragments of the True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword from the Demon-Subduing Ancestor's Mansion.

Si You patrolled outside the imperial carriage. (玐≈^≯∽∈‖ＪIaLi：)

The ghost soldiers and generals summoned by Little Yama rushed to the city gates of Yindu.

Tens of thousands of mummified archers suddenly emerged from the city gate. These archers silently drew long arrows from behind their backs and aimed them at Little Yama's ghostly soldiers.

Slack the bowstring, draw the bowstring. These mummified archers looked withered and shriveled, but their longbows were drawn and arrows fired with remarkable speed and precision, each shot a mere second.

Arrows rained down.

Half of Little Yama's ghost soldiers were wiped out before they even reached the city wall under the barrage of arrows. But that was enough. Bai Qi, Lü Bu, Xiang Yu, Li Jing, and the other ghost generals rode their horses up the city wall and quickly reached the top.

Halberds, spears, and swords—historically renowned generals slaughtered the mummified archers atop the city walls, then descended the walls and entered the inner city of Yindu.

The buildings inside this underworld are mostly made of wood and have a distinct ancient Xia style.

As before, many ghost messengers and spirits emerged from the wooden houses. The first thing the ghost generals encountered upon descending was the shackles and chains of the ghost messengers, and countless underworld magic spells from the spirits.

A cold snort came from afar.

The next moment, a faint white light rose from all the ghost generals and soldiers.

Little Yama bestowed his favor upon all his Yin soldiers and ghost generals, but the Yin power shattered upon impacting the ghost generals.

Little Yama's divine power can protect him from all Yin magic. When he bestows his favor upon these ghost generals, they can gain extremely high magic immunity. Even if they cannot be immune, they can still gain extremely strong resistance.

The favored ghost generals led hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers into the city's Yin messengers and Yin spirits. In an instant, severed limbs and pieces of flesh flew everywhere. Because these Yin spirits and Yin messengers did not have physical bodies, apart from the flying limbs, there was no scene of blood flowing everywhere.
