"Wait." He suddenly soared into the sky, casting a cold gaze at the Evil Ghost Path. "Though you Six Paths are powerful, that does not give you the right to indiscriminately slaughter the innocent. The task entrusted to you by Yama King was not to kill everyone, was it?"
Hell Path looked at Fu Jian, a flicker of surprise crossing his eyes. He had not expected anyone to stand up for Wanxian Sect at this moment. Moreover, it was one of their own who spoke out.
However, Hell Path merely chuckled coldly. "Judge, do you dare to meddle in the affairs of the Six Paths?" His voice carried a strong threat and murderous intent.
Fu Jian gripped the blade tightly in his hand, his gaze resolute and sharp. With a wave of his hand, he brought forth the dead who would no longer rise before the Six Paths. "Your names have appeared on the Death Register!"
The Six Paths leaned forward to check, only to discover that their names were indeed there.
Fu Jian continued, "For a thousand years, I have held the right to view the Death Register. Yet in all that time, I have never seen your names appear. Now, with only five paths remaining among you, your names suddenly show up on the Death Register. Yama King seems displeased with your actions."
The remaining members of Heaven Path, Asura Path, Hell Path, Evil Ghost Path, and Beast Path exchanged glances, their expressions turning grave. They looked at each other, anxiety flickering in their eyes.
Black Dog seemed to sense something amiss; he turned and became a shadow, swiftly fleeing the scene and disappearing into the horizon.
Although Evil Ghost Path was boiling with murderous intent and desperately wanted to kill those Wanxian Sect disciples on the ground, upon seeing his own name on the Death Register, he had no choice but to suppress this impulse. He understood the power of the Death Register and knew Yama King's methods; he dared not defy them lightly.
In the end, he could only snort coldly in frustration before turning to leave.
Fu Jian watched as Heaven Path, Asura Path, Hell Path, Evil Ghost Path, and Beast Path departed one after another, finally letting out a sigh of relief. Facing these killing gods made his heart race with fear. After all, back then—himself included—those who were known by name and title in Difu were all top-tier experts! And yet Six Paths had killed nine of the most elite among them; their strength was unfathomable.
He dared not imagine what it would be like to engage in battle with the Six Paths. Fu Jian lowered his gaze to the Death Register in his hands, a surge of inexplicable emotions welling up within him. For countless years, although he had been unable to utilize the Death Register, he possessed a replica of it. This imitation allowed him to see the names recorded within, and it was also the only means of contacting Yama King.
However, he had never seen the names of the Six Paths. Now, their names had suddenly appeared on the Death Register—what could this mean? Could it be that Yama King was truly displeased with their actions? A sense of unease filled Fu Jian's heart. Yama King was a ruthless figure, showing no mercy during internal purges.
In Fu Jian's eyes, the Difu had long surpassed both Jingjiao and Wanxian Sect over the years, yet its true strength had never been fully revealed. As Fu Jian lost himself in these thoughts, trying to decipher Yama King's intentions from the abruptly appearing names on the Death Register, a figure suddenly materialized silently beside him.
Fu Jian could distinctly sense a subtle shift in the air as the person approached; they did not seem to be an exceptionally powerful expert. However, when he turned his head and revealed a wary expression, what he saw was a mask of Yama King, those eyes hidden behind it seemingly capable of seeing through everything.
Hiss! Fu Jian inhaled sharply. One thought raced through his mind: no wonder this person could impersonate Yama King so seamlessly while possessing only the strength of a First Rank Dao Embryo Realm mortal!
"Yama King, why are you here?" Fu Jian asked softly, his tone tinged with a barely perceptible tension.
Yama King—or rather Chen Moxuan—looked at Fu Jian, a mysterious smile curling at the corners of his mouth. "I have come to help him adapt," he said, pulling a child from the shadows. That child was none other than Yun Che.
Yun Che wore a bewildered expression; he clearly did not understand why he had been brought here or why his master had transformed into Yama King. But he knew better than to speak out or cause trouble for his master. He was destined to be a figure of humanity in the future.
Chen Moxuan's gaze lingered on Yun Che for a moment before shifting back to Fu Jian. "From now on, you will oversee the Six Paths. Aside from those traitors from Difu, all notable experts across Xianyuan Shengzhou have already been assassinated during this time. I will not return for a while."
Fu Jian felt a jolt in his heart; he never expected that one day he would have the ability to control the Six Paths. He was just a Judge, guarding the mountain gate of Difu all these years, unworthy of such a great responsibility!
"My lord says you can, so you can. Quickly gather more people and keep a close watch on the Abyss. I may come back in a while," the Yama King commanded.
Fu Jian was overjoyed; he understood that each path within the Six Paths represented immense power and status. However, looking at the boy before him, a hint of worry crossed his mind. The paths of Heaven and Humanity were particularly unique. It was said that among the Nine Yama Kings, at least four had been killed by the two of them.
Now that the original people were dead, Fu Jian did not expect that the Yama King would bring a child to fill the gap. "But... Yama King, he is just a child," Fu Jian hesitated to say.
Chen Moxuan shook his head. "Do not underestimate him; the power within him far exceeds your imagination. Moreover, I have my reasons. The blood needed for the Six Paths—aside from that old dog—I am actually dissatisfied with the other four."
"Heaven is too arrogant and seems to have forgotten my authority. The others are filled with killing intent; they are not true assassins but merely tools for me to clean up trash. They are no longer my preferred Six Paths."
Fu Jian's heart surged with tumultuous emotions upon hearing this, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew that whatever the Yama King said, he would follow; it was the best course of action. He looked at Yun Che, trying to discern something from his youthful face. However, aside from those clear, watery eyes, he could see nothing else.
He pondered silently; since the Yama King had made such a decision, as a Judge, he could only comply. Fu Jian finally nodded. "Understood, Yama King. I will do my utmost to help him adapt to his identity as a human."
Chen Moxuan nodded in satisfaction. "Good. Remember to pass on all human techniques and laws to him. From now on, you will manage Difu, even though it is merely an empty shell now. But beneath those few buildings lie some preparations I left behind."
"You should know what to do."
Upon hearing this, Fu Jian's heart stirred, and he immediately felt a surge of excitement.
