"I didn't steal it, I just didn't steal it! Even if you beat me to death, you won't find the prayer beads!"
The fat monk added fuel to the fire, "This kid is rebellious by nature, no wonder the emperor doesn't want him."
"Beat him! Beat him until he submits!"
As a barrage of fists rained down, Ayao bit her lower lip tightly, stubbornly refusing to cry.
His father abandoned him, and nobody wanted him.
What's the point of living? It's better to be dead.
Ayao closed his eyes, awaiting death.
Instead of darkness, he brought salvation.
The woman, dressed in pristine white, resembled a fairy from a painting. She repelled the monks and saved him.
She said, "Get up, would you like to come with me?"
Yes, of course I'm willing.
However, he was afraid of being abandoned again.
Hesitantly, she forcefully took him from the monk's hands.
From then on, Ayao got new clothes, ate hot meals, and had a master.
There was also an annoying guy who was always arguing with him about who his master was.
The master belongs to him, and no one is allowed to take him away.
At the Taoist temple, Ayao felt a long-lost warmth.
This is his home, and his master is his family.
He will work hard to grow up and protect their home.
He was wrong; he still couldn't protect her.
His master left, and his master didn't want him anymore.
Alone, Ayao returned to the cold and desolate palace.
He is no longer the pitiful little guy who could be bullied by everyone. He has learned a lot from his master and is now capable of protecting himself.
My father is ill and bedridden.
My mother is old and melancholy.
Not long after, the two passed away.
Upon assuming a high position, A Yao always kept his master's teachings in mind and devoted himself to governing the country.
"Your Majesty, it's time to rest," a young eunuch whispered, holding a cup of tea.
Ayao pinched the bridge of his nose. "Still no news?"
Eunuch: "No."
Ayao sighed deeply, "Where exactly are you?"
The eunuch asked curiously, "Your Majesty, you ask this every day. If I may be so bold as to ask... who is she?"
Ayao smiled bitterly, "She is my only family."
Even after becoming emperor, he was still unhappy.
With his father and mother passing away one after another, and his master nowhere to be found, he was as lonely as ever.
Everyone's gone, and he doesn't want to live anymore.
...
"So that's how it is!!"
“My master did it for the sake of the world; she didn’t abandon me.”
"I thought you were deliberately avoiding A-Yao... Silly master, stupid master!"
Ayao talked to himself, venting his long-suppressed emotions.
He stared intently at the Book of Life and Death, as if trying to bore a hole through it, his fingertips gripping that page gradually turning white.
The words on it were glaringly offensive, and in a fit of anger, he wanted to tear them up!
Cui Yu hurriedly stopped him, "Mortals cannot alter the Book of Life and Death; tearing it up won't do any good."
His words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Ayao's heart, and he came to his senses.
"Who can?"
"The Great Emperor of Fengdu".
Cui Yu gave him a strange smile and patted him heavily on the shoulder. "Friend, you have the potential to be the Emperor of Fengdu. Want to give it a try?"
The previous Emperor of Fengdu perished in the great battle, and all the affairs of the underworld fell on his shoulders.
Cui Yu was so busy that she wanted to jump into the River of Oblivion.
A Yao is surrounded by purple aura, making him highly likely to become the Emperor of Fengdu.
There's a big boss in the underworld; he won't be that busy. This way, you can kill two birds with one stone.
Cui Yu advised, "You won't regret trying."
Ayao's gaze was resolute: "I will definitely become the Emperor of Fengdu and rewrite the Book of Life and Death!"
As it turns out, Cui Yu was right about Gui; A Yao excelled at everything he did.
When he was a human, he became the supreme ruler; when he was a ghost messenger, he collected the most souls and became a god in the shortest time.
As he wished, the underworld finally had a boss, and he was finally free, hahaha.
Before she could finish laughing, Cui Yu heard some terrible news.
"I'm going to find her. I'll leave the underworld to you."
Cui Yu's smile vanished. Suppressing the urge to curse, she patiently asked for the reason.
Ayao said, "She won't come back, she won't come back..."
Cui Yu gritted her teeth and agreed, "Go and come back soon, I'll miss you, Emperor Fengdu!!"
The Emperor of Fengdu will return, in a hundred years, two hundred years at most. Keep up the good work!
Unexpectedly, this wait lasted for five hundred years.
With Cui Yu guarding the underworld, A Yao felt very at ease. He personally jumped into the cycle of reincarnation to search for his master.
Gaa gaa gaa!
A crow perched on a branch, its feathers a brilliant black, blending perfectly with the night.
A Yao looked up, and the gazes of the ghost and the creature met.
"Gaga gaga! Gaga gaga!!"
The crow seemed very frightened, spreading its wings and flying upwards with all its might.
We can't let it get away!
Ayao lightly touched the ground with his toes to catch up, his fingers about to touch the smooth feathers.
The crow suddenly changed direction, crashed headfirst into a tree, and died.
"Stupid crow, just as stupid as Master," Ayao muttered under his breath. "If you were dead, I'd be free of trouble."
He picked up the crow and traveled to the next dimension.
The master's soul shattered into many pieces. His soul power was insufficient to transform into a human, so he could only transform into small animals or plants.
Ayao has met Master Stone, Master Grass, Master Crow, and so on. What will his next master be like?
A stone falls into the river, grass is broken by the wind, and a crow crashes into the river and dies. How will Master die next?
Ayao sighed and walked down the street.
Autumn is the harvest season. The streets are filled with all kinds of crops, and people happily call out their wares and chat in their spare time.
How was the harvest this year?
"So-so. I'm 63, too old to work anymore. My son and daughter are disobedient. I don't know if I'll go to heaven or hell when I die."
"Pah, don't talk such discouraging things."
