A master of comedy!

Zhou Sheng stared intently at the lines of golden text on the Heavenly Book, ignoring everything else, and headed straight for the section on the Fifth Court of Hell, the King of Hell.

"He commands the laws and punishments of the Nine Netherworlds, oversees the eighteen prison departments, acts on behalf of Heaven to carry out punishments, and upholds the authority of the Dao..."

The power of Yama, the King of Hell, is very important and not difficult to find. Zhou Sheng looked at them, his eyes gleaming, and slowly picked up his pen.

Over there, Yao Tai Feng had already used her hairpin to separate the boundary between Yin and Yang. She looked at Zhou Sheng with anxious eyes and kept transmitting her voice: "Danshan, the Mandarin Duck Pendant is broken. This means that Master and the others can't hold on any longer. Yama will be back soon. If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"

Before I came, the old man from Niushan gave me two jade pendants, a mother and child pair. These pendants have a special feature: once the mother pendant breaks, the other child pendant will also break, no matter where you are in the world.

They made this agreement that if Yama successfully broke the formation, he would crush the mother pendant to notify Zhou Sheng that time was running out and he should escape quickly.

"I know."

Zhou Sheng's voice rang in her ears, clear and powerful, calm and resolute, with an undeniable strength.

"Listen to me, take them away first, I have my own way of getting away."

Yao Taifeng wanted to say something, but Zhou Sheng glared at her angrily, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Fine."

She was not a coy or pretentious woman, so she naturally knew that she couldn't be sentimental at crucial moments. Recalling the countless times he had cleverly saved the day, Yao Taifeng chose to believe him.

She led the young Yin-Yang practitioners into the Yin-Yang barrier, and as the dark portal dissipated, their figures vanished.

Only then did Zhou Sheng finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that he has no worries, he can unleash his full power and cause chaos!

Looking at the celestial script that recorded the authority of the Fifth King of Hell, Zhou Sheng smiled coldly, a chilling killing intent flashing in his eyes.

He recalled the humiliation he suffered when he first graduated from his apprenticeship. In front of him, Yama took out his master's leg tendon and golden pill, showing them off like trophies, and then bestowed them upon the Night Wanderer.

This arrogant and self-important Yama King also used him as a weapon, a sharp blade to deal with Nian Nu Jiao, in order to help him eliminate the Bodhisattva's influence and consolidate his own power.

In his eyes, the entire Yinxi lineage were merely pawns that could be easily discarded, like his own trained but somewhat disobedient vicious dogs.

Little did they know, a knife can hurt people.

Without hesitation, Zhou Sheng picked up the judge's pen and began to add his own text after that passage.

Yes, he did not intend to erase the authority of the Fifth King of Hell; that was unrealistic. Such a deeply ingrained rule, which had existed for countless years, was something he could not erase with his current strength.

The Yin Puppet Master's contract is considered one of the more fragile rules in the Heavenly Book, but even so, he almost couldn't withstand it, let alone such an ancient and existing law.

He couldn't possibly be like the Great Sage of yesteryear, who could simply wipe out all the monkeys in the world from the Book of Life and Death with a stroke of his vermilion brush, or even tear the Book of Life and Death up. Such a huge karmic consequence was something he couldn't bear in his current state.

But if you add something, it can be achieved.

"The Lord of the Underworld, Yama, possesses power that can shake the Three Realms and influence the Six Paths. However, the greater the power, the deeper the responsibility; the higher the position, the stricter the precepts. Now, the ironclad law is established..."

Zhou Sheng picked up his pen and used his great magical power to write down the lines of golden text. The beginning went smoothly, but when he was about to formulate the new laws, the pressure soared, and his whole body felt as if it were being pressed down under Mount Fengdu. Lifting the pen was like pushing a mountain.

His body radiated thousands of golden rays, and his fully mastered zombie skills, Medicine Buddha's Lapis Lazuli Golden Body, and Vajra Indestructible Body were all activated to their maximum potential. With the addition of the surging magical power provided by the golden elixir in his dantian, he finally managed to hold on.

"Whenever Yama's subordinates commit a crime, their master shall be the first to be punished."

As these words were written, the entire city of Fengdu trembled, and countless ghosts and gods simultaneously experienced a certain realization.

The King of Hell is in charge of punishing good and evil. He should be clear-minded and upright, and his rule should be strict and just. If any ghosts or gods under his command commit evil, the King of Hell should be the chief culprit and suffer divine punishment.

In an instant, some of the more senior ghosts and gods trembled, realizing what this "Judge Bao" was doing.

He actually intends to change the rules of the underworld by himself, with his spearhead aimed directly at the King of Hell. Could it be that beheading the judge with the dragon-head guillotine is not enough?

Thinking of this, they were terrified. Back then, when Bao Gong went down to the underworld to investigate a case, he only beheaded the judge. They never thought that today... they would have to raise their swords against Yama.

At the same time, they also understood why Bao Gong first punished the gods and then used the Mirror of Karma to proclaim the crimes to the world. This was not for people to see, but for Heaven to see!

Those who remain in the underworld today are basically those who have pledged allegiance to Yama, so the sins they commit are Yama's sins.

From the very beginning, Bao Gong's target was not them, but Yama, the King of Hell!

"His subordinates accepted a bribe of one coin..."

As Zhou Sheng wrote these words, a deafening roar came from the Gates of Hell, and a figure descended upon the underworld, the terrifying aura causing the bright moon in the sky to distort slightly.

The crescent moon between Zhou Sheng's brows flickered, as if he had sensed some great danger.

"Stop, you little beast!!!"

As Yama's roar resounded, wind and thunder raged instantly, the River Styx in the underworld surged, and towering waves rose, causing the entire city of Fengdu to tremble.

"King Yama!"

"It's Yama, the King of Hell, who has returned!"

Many ghosts and spirits looked hopeful, as if they had finally seen their savior.

Little beast?
Zhou Sheng sneered, ignoring the enraged King Yama, and continued to wield his magic to write down the new rules.

"If a subordinate accepts a bribe of even one coin, the master will suffer the karmic fire that burns in his heart for ten days."

As the character "日" (sun) was written, the previously aggressive King Yama suddenly shuddered, clutching his heart, a look of pain flashing in his eyes.

The fire of karma burns in my heart!

Accepting a bribe of one coin can cause ten days of burning anxiety.

Given the extent of bribery among his subordinates, this burning pain will likely linger for centuries.

"You little beast, how dare you impersonate Bao Gong and arbitrarily change the rules of the underworld! I will cast you into the eighteenth level of hell... cough cough!"

He flew in, his voice like thunder, but he couldn't stop coughing a few times and actually spat out scalding divine blood, as hot as boiling soup.

The feeling of having one's internal organs burned is not pleasant. If He were not at a very high level of cultivation and profound understanding, even his flying technique would probably be affected.

A ruthless glint flashed in Zhou Sheng's eyes. Faced with this arrogant and seemingly invincible enemy, the ferocity in his bones was completely unleashed.

The golden core circulated rapidly within the dantian, and nearly six hundred years of magical power, like a boiling ocean, burst forth, forcefully blocking the backlash from the rules.

The Mirror of Retribution had shattered, and the three guillotines—Dragon, Tiger, and Dog—flew toward Yama at the same time, only to be smashed aside by him. Even the gavel, which had once accompanied Judge Bao in judging cases and exonerating the innocent, and which held the spirit of righteousness for millennia, cracked in two with a snap.

But Zhou Sheng ignored all of this and continued writing.

"A subordinate official made a wrongful judgment in a case, and the master was struck by lightning and suffered a thirty-year-long death!"

Boom!!!

In an instant, countless bolts of heavenly lightning struck towards Yama, turning the entire sky into a thunderous swamp.

Zhou Sheng's gaze was resolute, revealing a murderous intent.

Aren't you high and mighty, and do you think you can suppress everything?

Didn't they never take us actors seriously?

Come on, today I, an actor, am going to write you to death!
