Chapter 196 Management Matters
"Lin Emperor... no, Lin God, King Yama requests your presence."
Hua Gu appeared again, showing up in front of Lin Ning with a smile.
He had no injuries on his body, and his spirits were high, seemingly unaffected by the merger of the two realms.
"Please come with me." Hua Gu extended his hand politely.
Lin Ning followed behind Hua Gu, taking a soul boat to Yama Palace.
Walking into the main hall, Lin Ning spotted King Yama at a glance.
However, King Yama was not sitting on the high seat, but on a chair below, in the center.
To King Yama's left was Dragon God, who had already transformed into a human form.
Dragon God had the appearance of a middle-aged man with a square face, his eyes indifferent and his expression serious, as if everyone equally owed him tens of millions.
And to King Yama's right was Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao of Barren Ancient Continent!
"Brother Lin, you're here." King Yama said with a slight smile.
"Brother Lin?" Lin Ning furrowed his brow. When did this King Yama start calling him brother?
Barren Ancient Continent and Netherworld merged with each other; the two realms didn't just collide, did they knock King Yama's brain silly?
Lin Ning greeted the three one by one, then naturally sat down in the seat opposite King Yama.
"Since everyone is here, I won't beat around the bush."
King Yama said in a deep voice, "I've invited you here this time to discuss the matter of control with you."
His gaze first swept towards Heavenly Dao, then towards Lin Ning, and King Yama continued, "Now, Barren Ancient Continent and Netherworld have merged with each other, looking quite like Ancient Heavenly Court in the past."
"But, our two realms were after all split off by Ancestral God, and there is still interference from Ancestral God's karma."
"How to manage and how to control is a big problem."
If King Yama managed Netherworld himself and Heavenly Dao managed Barren Ancient Continent, that would naturally be fine.
But, the current situation is not like this.
Now, the boundaries between these two realms are already very blurred.
Cultivators from Barren Ancient Continent have run into many places in Netherworld.
As for the undead from Netherworld, they have regrown flesh and blood, using Barren Ancient Continent to regrow flesh and blood, no different from ordinary people; they have appeared in every corner of Barren Ancient Continent.
"As the King of the Underworld, I have only known how to deal with the undead in this life." King Yama said, "Now, many living cultivators have entered my Netherworld, and the undead have also entered Barren Ancient Continent; everything is in chaos."
"How about, Brother Heavenly Dao, you still manage living beings, the living beings of our two realms, and I manage the undead?"
Hearing this, Heavenly Dao waved its hand, "No, no."
"My ability is limited, I'll just manage Barren Ancient Continent. Most of your Overlords from Netherworld still operate within Netherworld."
"Moreover, I am not even a True God, how can I manage them?"
Most of the Overlords in Netherworld are not from Barren Ancient Continent; they belong to other planets.
These Overlords don't have much good feeling towards Barren Ancient Continent, and even harbor hatred towards this Ancient Heavenly Court.
When the Overlords were young, they heard from the elders on their planets how Ancient Heavenly Court exploited their planets when it was prosperous.
Therefore, most of these Overlords stay in Netherworld; they are already used to living in Netherworld.
"Brother Heavenly Dao, you are after all a wisp of Ancient Heavenly Court's will, possessing the essence of Ancient Heavenly Court's will; managing these will definitely be easy." King Yama said.
Heavenly Dao still waved its hand in refusal.
King Yama and Heavenly Dao's mutual evasion made Lin Ning frown tightly.
Lin Ning thought to himself, "Strange, what's going on with this Heavenly Dao and King Yama?"
"They're not snatching control, but instead want to largely transfer power to each other??"
"What are they afraid of?"
Lin Ning was confused. If power was given to those Overlords in Netherworld, they would likely devour both realms completely.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a loud sound rang out.
The three turned their heads to look.
A fist slammed onto the table, causing dense cracks to appear on it. Dragon God snorted coldly, then said, "You two, don't you want to manage this world?"
"What Barren Ancient Continent, what Netherworld, they all belonged to Heavenly Court in the past. Although Heavenly Court has become the past, becoming the Ancient Heavenly Court in people's mouths."
"But, this is still Heavenly Court. Now that the two realms are merged, why not call it New Heavenly Court! Or simply Heavenly Court!"
Dragon God stated, "You two don't dare to take too much control of Heavenly Court's power because you're worried that Ancestral God faked his death, right? You're afraid of getting involved with Ancestral God's karma!"
"Ancestral God has been dead for how many years? The world it ruled has already shattered into pieces. What are you still afraid of?"
Turning to look at King Yama, Dragon God smiled and said, "You, King Yama, are truly becoming more timid the longer you live. Since you all don't dare to take control, then I will take control!"
Hearing that Dragon God wanted to control the two realms, Heavenly Dao and King Yama unexpectedly clapped and cheered!
"Muttering and mumbling, how strange."
After the meeting dispersed, Lin Ning was full of confusion.
"Damn, this is the first time I've attended such a hasty meeting!"
Lin Ning complained, "Dragon God wants to take control of the world, and those two guys actually agreed so quickly, and even came to assist Dragon God."
"Didn't River God say that Dragon God was killed by King Yama?"
"How did their relationship become so subtle? I don't understand."
On the other side.
"Senior Dragon God!"
Netherworld. The Overlords who were summoned together looked at the empty hall, all feeling puzzled. When they saw that the arrival was actually Dragon God, they couldn't help but be surprised.
The one who called the meeting wasn't King Yama?
But Dragon God?
The legendary expert in Netherworld??
His gaze swept over everyone. Dragon God cleared his throat and said, "I believe many of the Overlords present here don't recognize me."
"Let me first introduce my identity. Now that the two realms have merged, I am responsible for controlling Heavenly Court."
"Don't you want to relocate the planets you lived on before? It's not impossible!"
Hearing this, the eyes of the Overlords lit up. They looked at Dragon God with anticipation, showing no sign of the sleepiness they had just moments ago.
Okay, okay, if you're talking about something like this, then we're not sleepy anymore.
"May I ask Senior Dragon God, how should we find our planets?" asked Overlord Leng Musu.
Dragon God smiled and said, "This is the origin of Ancient Heavenly Court; the secrets buried here are numerous. What you need to do is excavate the secrets of Ancient Heavenly Court and find ways to become stronger."
"What you want is right here."
...
Qingyun Sect.
"Husband, what did King Yama want you for?" Ji Jiuli hung onto Lin Ning like a pendant, reaching out to rub Lin Ning's cheek.
Lin Ning recounted the entire incident, then explained, "I have no interest in this kind of rule."
"What I want is for you to become stronger and for me to find a way to break the universe's demise."
Jiuli pouted and said, "But, this is a cursed land. Our divine bridges are broken; it's impossible to even become gods."
"I have a way." Lin Ning smiled.
