Chapter 185 The Heavenly Court Has No Official Staff? The Heavenly Court's Supreme Emperor!
Fairy Jinghuan hesitated for a long time before stammering, "To be honest, I was originally formed from the red thread of the Old Man Under the Moon, which is why I have this supernatural power to control the wind and the moon."

"But when I first gained sentience, there was no trace of the ancient gods and immortals."

"Most of the immortals and gods in the Heavenly Court today have similar origins to me."

“Take Shenying, for example. He was originally a magical jade transformed from a stubborn stone that Nuwa refined.”

"And the current Heavenly Emperor is said to have intricate connections with the former Jade Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Roger asked curiously, "Are you a subject of the Heavenly Emperor?"

Fairy Jinghuan quickly waved her hand and explained, "Your Excellency, please don't misunderstand. Although the Heavenly Court appears to be in good order, it is not a monolithic entity. Various forces are vying for power."

"My Illusory Realm is also one of them."

"Although the Heavenly Emperor is quite powerful, he can't do anything about my Taixu Illusionary Realm in the Lihen Heaven."

After hearing this, Roger felt reassured and laughed loudly, "This Lihentian was originally Laozi's Daoist temple, and I have some connection with Laozi."

"From this perspective, it seems that Lihentian should be put to my use from now on."

Roger wasn't entirely bragging. In the Journey to the West world, he did get hit by Pangu's axe. Maybe that Pangu was actually Laozi in disguise.

After all, in the Journey to the West world, Laozi had many aliases. He once used the name of Nuwa to mend the sky with stones and even converted barbarians into Buddhas.

Perhaps even the Buddha is one of his aliases.

Even if it isn't, the relationship is definitely not ordinary.

In that case, who can guarantee that Pangu isn't just another persona of his?
Fairy Jinghuan was furious when she heard Roger's words, but she dared not show it.

She could only bite her lip and secretly glare at Roger.

After all, her life was now in Roger's hands.

Roger waved his hand, and the array formation spell was cast.

In an instant, the weather within the Heaven of Parting Hatred changed dramatically.

Several beams of light shot out from Roger's fingertips, weaving and intertwining in the air, instantly setting up several magic arrays to firmly protect Lihentian.

Roger estimated that Fairy Jinghuan's strength was among the top tier in this realm.

Anyone who tries to force their way into Lihentian under the magic array will suffer greatly.

Then Roger used a teleportation spell.

Fairy Jinghuan watched all this from the side, her eyes wide with shock, yet she dared not utter a sound.

After doing all this, Roger turned to look at Fairy Disenchantment.

He curled his lips into a smile, extended his finger and gently touched Fairy Jinghuan, casting a finger-transformation spell.

In an instant, Fairy Jinghuan felt a tightness all over her body.

When she looked again, she found herself dressed as a maid.

She opened her mouth as if to protest, but could only close it helplessly, her eyes filled with resentment.

Roger, accompanied by Fairy Disenchantment who had transformed into a maid, rode on auspicious clouds and headed down to the mortal realm.

Suddenly, Roger saw a spirit floating in mid-air.

Seemingly sensing Roger's auspicious cloud, it drifted straight towards them.

Roger stopped the auspicious cloud and asked, "Who are you?"

The soul transformed into the shape of an infant, babbling incoherently, trying to speak but unable to articulate clearly, looking extremely anxious.

Seeing this, Roger found it amusing and pointed at the spirit.

The soul instantly transformed into the appearance of a young man, dressed in plain white mourning clothes.

The young man knelt on the cloud and kowtowed to Roger, saying, "My lord, I am Xi Fangping, a native of Dong'an County, and I have a great injustice to my name."

Before Roger could ask, Xi Fangping began to speak: "My father was bribed by his enemies to serve as an underworld official, and he was brutally murdered. His soul was imprisoned and tortured."

"I sought justice for my father, and my soul left my body to appeal to the City God, the Prefect, and the King of Hell. But they all protected each other, and not only did I not get justice, I was also tortured and forced to be reincarnated as an infant."

"But I am not reconciled. After starving to death, I planned to go to Lord Erlang Shen to appeal, but I did not expect to encounter your auspicious cloud on the way. I hope you can help me seek justice. I will be eternally grateful." Roger's heart stirred upon hearing this.

It turns out to be the plot of "Xi Fangping".

Since we've run into him, I'm determined to settle this injustice myself.

It's not that he likes to meddle in other people's business.

Roger had originally planned to go to the underworld to find out what it was like in this world.

Roger then smiled and said to Xi Fangping, "Get up. Now that I'm here, the heavens are clear!"

Upon hearing this, Xi Fangping's face lit up with joy. He quickly kowtowed again and respectfully asked, "I don't know your official title or name, sir, so that I may know it."

Upon hearing this, Roger secretly wondered what was going on. He couldn't very well tell the truth that he didn't have a formal position in Heaven.

However, his eyes lit up and a plan came to him. He said mysteriously, "Don't ask me anything. I am now disguised as a white dragon and traveling incognito."

"You only need to know that even the Heavenly Emperor himself would have to kneel down and call me father."

Upon hearing this, Xi Fangping's mind immediately began to wander.

An incognito visit?

Even the Heavenly Emperor would have to kowtow and call him "Father"!

The Heavenly Emperor's father is none other than the Retired Emperor!

He is familiar with this.

Xi Fangping couldn't help but marvel that the Heavenly Court, just like the mortal realm, also had an Emperor Emeritus.

That's true, the Heavenly Emperor must have a father too, so he must be the Retired Emperor.

Xi Fangping's family had some wealth, and he was also educated, having even passed the imperial examination to become a scholar. Naturally, he knew a thing or two about the affairs of the imperial court.

He had also heard about the power struggle between the current emperor and the retired emperor.

I have heard that although the current emperor has ascended the throne, real power is still firmly in the hands of the retired emperor who lives in the Daming Palace.

Xi Fangping couldn't help but wonder if he was lucky enough to have encountered the retired emperor in heaven.

Xi Fangping thought about it more and more and it made more sense.

He couldn't help but steal another glance at Fairy Disenchantment standing behind Roger.

Although Fairy Jinghuan is now dressed as a maid, the aura she exudes is unmistakable to anyone who sees her, far surpassing that of ordinary fairies.

Xi Fangping felt that his guess was pretty accurate.

The thought of encountering such a powerful person and being able to rely on them to seek justice for me made my heart pound with excitement.

He kowtowed to Roger again: "I am truly fortunate to have your help, sir."

Roger guessed Xi Fangping's thoughts, and his smile widened: "You lead the way, and I will seek justice for you."

Upon hearing this, Xi Fangping was filled with gratitude and quickly responded, pointing in the direction he had come from.

"Sir, this way."

Roger nodded, and the auspicious cloud beneath his feet carried the three of them swiftly toward the Yin Earth.

Before long, they arrived at the boundary between the Yin and Yang realms.

Ahead, the clouds and mist were thick, and a sinister atmosphere enveloped them.

Roger stomped his foot and, along with Xi Fangping and Fairy Jinghuan, plunged headlong into the underworld.

A huge city appeared before them.

At the city gate, a plaque hangs high with two large characters engraved on it.

Youdu.
