Great Tang: I, Judge of the Underworld, Begin in Tang Dynasty Tales

After transmigrating to a parallel world, Li Xia, a top lawyer, became the grandson of the Tang crown prince Li Hong, the son of Emperor Xiaojing, a grandson who never existed in history. He was a stone engraver in Shiyang County, Great Tang.

He had hoped to live a quiet life in Great Tang, but then he learned that the emperor in Chang'an was still Wu Zetian, that the Buddhist monk Xuanzang had returned from his pilgrimage, that a neighboring dynasty was called Daqin, that a beggar named Zhu Chongba lived on the border, and that one of Judge Di's disciples, Su Wuming, was about to report for duty in Chang'an...

Li Xia knew that life in Great Tang was unlikely to stay peaceful.

The times were turbulent and murder cases were breaking out everywhere. Just then, Li Xia acquired the Judge System.

By day, he carved tombstones. By night, he judged ghosts.

As long as he solved a crime and imposed the appropriate punishment, he would receive a corresponding reward: "Underworld Vouchers." They could cover his daily expenses and be exchanged for all kinds of miraculous items.

And once he had solved enough cases, he could even rise through the ranks of the Underworld and extend his lifespan.

From then on, while others solved cases among the living, Li Xia passed judgment in the Underworld.

Su Wuming: "I used to be a staunch atheist. After meeting Li Xia, I realized I was wrong."

Wu Zetian: "If you can let me see the late Emperor Gaozong, I shall appoint you Grand Preceptor of Great Tang!"

Xuanzang: "The Dharma? I trust Li Xia more than the Dharma. Li Xia is my teacher!"

Ying Zheng: "With Li Xia's help, I could finally sleep soundly!"

Holding the Underworld indictment in his hand, its pages radiating a bone-chilling aura of death,

Li Xia looked at the wailing evil ghosts below the tribunal

and shouted,

"Keep howling! I've come to collect you!"
