I became King Yama, and only later learned that my predecessor’s term had ended. Before ascending to immortality, he had to find someone in the mortal world with the strongest obsession to take over. The obsession I carried as I lay dying, that evil had gone unpunished and justice had not been served, broke through the boundary between yin and yang and made me the perfect candidate. And so the underworld created the “Karmic Debt Stand-In” program, which deals with evildoers in the human realm by making them experience the sins they inflicted on others.
Lin Zhiqiang secretly switched his wife’s fate so she would suffer ten years of torment in his place? I put him directly into his wife’s body. From domestic abuse and miscarriage to fleeing in desperation while pregnant with triplets, he would experience every bit of the pain of broken bones and the agony of childbirth.
Zhang Cheng swindled his wife out of her money and murdered her, pushed her down the stairs, pulled out her oxygen tube, then flirted at her funeral? He could experience the despair of broken bones and suffocation himself, watch the police take him away with his mistress in his arms, and spend the rest of his life atoning in prison.
Zhao Feng abused his power, imprisoned a young woman and forced her to bear his child, sold her off to be abused, then went too far and killed her? The torment of the Eighteen Levels of Hell wasn’t enough. He would also take on the young woman’s body and experience the dark prison and the pain of being torn from his own flesh and blood. In his next life, he would be reborn as a beast and spend his days turning a millstone!
Every evildoer gets what they deserve, suffering for the sins they committed. Every cycle of a stand-in’s reincarnation brings justice to a victim.
As for me, I’ll munch on sunflower seeds and keep an eye on things. “Which sinner is next in line for punishment?”
It's a very novel theme, and it's a lot of fun to take revenge on those scumbags. There is nothing better than letting them experience their pain themselves.
