[Mindless wish fulfillment, super satisfying, even slacking off is satisfying]
[Don't ask why I'm so strong. I just am, and I never have to suffer.]
Lin Yuan was a low-ranking ghost constable by the Bridge of Helplessness in the underworld, on the verge of being obliterated.
The underworld had been struck by its greatest calamity in ten thousand years.
Countless evil spirits had burst out of the Eighteenth Level of Hell and were attacking the cycle of reincarnation. Even the Ten Kings of Hell were in grave danger.
Just as a powerful Ghost King was about to devour Lin Yuan, he activated the [Myriad Worlds Cause-and-Effect Ledger].
With nothing to lose, Lin Yuan wrote in the ledger:
“When the Ghost King was young, I gave him a drop of ghost essence to help him develop his intelligence.”
The Ghost King, poised to bite, shuddered and dropped to his knees. “My benefactor!”
When the Judge of the Dead came to arrest him, Lin Yuan wrote again:
“I ground your ink for three hundred years and shielded you from the backlash.”
Cui, the upright and impartial Judge, burst into tears on the spot. “Your kindness is beyond measure, my benefactor!”
When the Ten Kings of Hell questioned him, Lin Yuan calmly looked toward the divine beast Di Ting in the corner.
Di Ting acknowledged him as its master. The Kings of Hell all jumped to their feet, frantically imagining that Lin Yuan was an almighty expert wandering the mortal world!
Lin Yuan: “I'm really not some big shot!”
The gods and Buddhas: “Senior, stop pretending! We understand, we really do!”
From then on, Lin Yuan was forced down a one-way road of playing the part of a powerful master.
“I once gave the Great Sage Equal to Heaven a wisp of soulfire.”
The Victorious Fighting Buddha tore through the sky. “Who dares lay a hand on my benefactor!”
“I once guided Lady Houtu in transforming herself into the cycle of reincarnation.”
The fortune of the entire underworld gathered around him!
When the Heavenly Court's archenemy marched on the gates, Lin Yuan opened the ledger. The gods and Buddhas across the Three Realms and Six Paths all came to repay their debts of gratitude!
