Chapter 3 The Four Halls Council, Frightened City God!
Chapter 3: Council of the Four Halls, City God in Panic!
When Chen Chang'an entered the main hall, three of the four chairs in the hall were already occupied.
Those three individuals were all dressed in black robes and wore bronze masks, making it impossible to discern their gender or body shape.
Behind each of them was a plaque with three lines of large characters.
[Yama],
[Meng Po],
[King of Reincarnation]!
Upon arrival, Chen Chang'an did not hesitate and went straight to his designated seat.
[Emperor Song],
Behind his seat was also a line of characters.
"Emperor Song, you've come early this time," said Yama, breaking the silence.
Yama's face was hidden behind the mask, making it impossible to see any expression.
However, Chen Chang'an could guess that Yama's expression at this moment was definitely not a smile.
Calmly, Chen Chang'an replied, "The emperor's decree requires my presence."
"Enough with the pleasantries, you two are wasting time over there. Since we're all here, let's get to the point," Meng Po spoke up.
Her voice echoed in the hall, low and hoarse.
Meng Po looked at the three of them and said, "We all have limited time, so let's discuss how we should handle the matter entrusted to us by the emperor."
"No need to discuss how to handle it. It's just the Great Sun Tathagata Sect. I, as the King of Reincarnation, can take them down with one rotation of the hall," interrupted the King of Reincarnation.
As his powerful voice resounded, one would instinctively imagine a rugged man's face hidden behind his mask.
But that was not the case.
Chen Chang'an had heard stories about the King of Reincarnation before and knew that beneath his rough exterior was actually a woman's face.
On the other hand, Yama, who sounded like a woman, had a man's face beneath the bronze mask.
In a place like the Hall of Rebirth, judging people by their voices was the biggest mistake.
Upon hearing the King of Reincarnation's words, Yama shook his head and said, "No, the Great Sun Tathagata Sect is one of the famous Ten Sects. It is said to have an eternal Buddha in the Eight Realms within their sect."
"Moreover, the Great Sun Tathagata Sect and the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect have always had close ties and mutual assistance."
"If we make a move against the Great Sun Tathagata Sect, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect will likely intervene."
"At that time, relying solely on you, King of Reincarnation, may not be enough to handle the situation."
After saying this, Yama glanced at the King of Reincarnation, making his intentions clear.
"What do you mean, Yama?" asked the King of Reincarnation.
"My suggestion is to let Meng Po and Emperor Song accompany you on this trip. The three of you together will ensure that the emperor's instructions are not neglected."
"If necessary, I will also join you."
Yama, as the public face of the Hall of Rebirth, rarely intervened in such matters.
But this time, he had spoken to such an extent, indicating the seriousness with which the Dark Emperor regarded this matter.
The King of Reincarnation pondered for a moment and said, "Alright."
Yama nodded in agreement, "Very well, it's settled then."
He then turned his gaze to Chen Chang'an and Meng Po, asking, "What do you both think?"
"Alright," Meng Po nodded, expressing no objections.
Chen Chang'an also nodded, "I think it's feasible."
However, Chen Chang'an shook his head afterwards, "But while the plan is feasible, it may not be workable. I have some matters to attend to in the next few days, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you on this trip."
Upon hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Meng Po expressed some curiosity, "Emperor Song, you're not going? That's a pity."
But she didn't ask any further and continued, "However, can we borrow a few people from Emperor Song?"
"What kind of people does Meng Po want to borrow?" Chen Chang'an asked.
Meng Po replied, "City God, Black and White Impermanence, and Zhong Kui!"
"Alright."
Chen Chang'an did not refuse when he heard the words, but nodded.
"Good!"
Hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Meng Po and the others all nodded.
Among the four main halls of the Hall of Rebirth, the most powerful one besides the main hall is Emperor Song's Emperor Song Hall.
Not only is he an ancient giant at the Eight Realms level, but he also has four gods and demons under his command who are comparable to the Seven Realms.
They are City God, Black and White Impermanence, and Zhong Kui!
Among them, Black and White Impermanence are siblings.
But the two are often inseparable and have similar abilities.
So outsiders like to think of them as one person.
With these four present,
Even if Emperor Song himself doesn't go at that time!
It wouldn't make much of a difference!
"Alright, this meeting is over. You may all disperse."
With the matter settled, Yama made the final decision,
And the meeting was adjourned.
Afterwards, the four individuals disappeared into nothingness.
Emperor Song Hall.
When Chen Chang'an appeared again, he was already seated at the top seat of Emperor Song Hall.
"We have seen Emperor Song!"
Below the grand hall, there were already many people standing.
Numerous officials from the underworld.
Standing at the forefront was a man with a gentle and sinister appearance.
This man was the City God mentioned by Meng Po and the others earlier!
"City God, how did your investigation go?"
Chen Chang'an asked City God from his seat.
"Reporting to Emperor Song, I have found the information."
"Speak."
"Yes."
City God respectfully saluted and then said,
"After confirmation, it is true that the solitary copy of the Taishang Dao Scripture still exists in the world."
"It was last seen in a sect called Hidden Sect."
"I see."
Upon hearing City God's words, Chen Chang'an nodded.
"You have done well, you may leave."
"Yes, thank you, my lord."
Upon receiving Chen Chang'an's praise, City God's heart was filled with joy.
Then, he respectfully saluted and continued speaking to Chen Chang'an,
"However, my lord, I don't understand,"
"The Taishang Dao Scripture is just a casual record of the Dao, not even a cultivation technique."
"Why does my lord want it?"
"Hmm?"
As soon as City God finished speaking, Chen Chang'an's eyes immediately locked onto him.
In an instant, a nearly tangible killing intent surged in the vast Emperor Song Hall.
It was so majestic and cold.
Sensing this killing intent, City God's face turned pale in an instant.
"My lord, spare me, spare me!"
"I will never dare again, I will never dare again!"
He hastily knelt on the ground, repeatedly kowtowing and begging for mercy.
City God instantly realized that he had committed a taboo,
Among the four giants of the Hall of Rebirth,
Underneath their bronze masks,
Each person has their own public identity in the outside world.
They may be an elder of a sect,
Or a deity of a dynasty,
Or an old man by the river.
What they fear most is having their identity investigated by others!
No one is allowed to do so!
Unfortunately,
He had clearly violated this taboo just now!
