The King of Hell sighed helplessly and slowly revealed the truth: "Tianjun, to be honest, this is the seven-life love tribulation. Lingjun must endure seven lifetimes of suffering and love tribulation before she can achieve the right result. This is her fate, and it is also a challenge she must face. No one can replace her, and there is no escape."
Rong Lin's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. He repeated in disbelief, "Seven lives? You mean, she needs to go through seven full reincarnations?"
Hades nodded gravely. "It is indeed seven lifetimes, absolutely correct. This is mainly because Lingjun violated the laws of heaven and arbitrarily broke the seal, thus triggering this series of inevitable disasters."
Rong Lin's mood became extremely irritable. He asked anxiously, "Then is there anyone who can solve this problem?"
The Hades shook his head helplessly and responded, "Lord of the Heavens, this is fate, no one can explain it. However, your continued assistance to Lord of the Spirits in the human world may make her life a little smoother during these seven lives, and time will pass relatively faster."
Rong Lin pinched his brows painfully and said with a worried look on his face, "But she will gradually age in the human world, while I will always remain like this. Do you think she can accept such a gap? Can humans accept it?"
The King of Hell looked at Rong Lin and secretly sighed at his deep affection for Ling Jun, as he even considered these details so carefully.
After pondering for a moment, he offered a suggestion: "Or, you could tell her the truth. Alternatively, you could use magic to resolve this issue. Perhaps, before she can even wait until the end of seven lifetimes, if Lingjun knows the truth in one of her lifetimes, then her love tribulation might end sooner."
Rong Lin was silent for a moment, seemingly weighing the pros and cons. Finally, he said goodbye and instantly vanished from the Pluto's Palace.
Returning to the human world was but a blink of an eye. Rong Lin once again set foot on this familiar yet unfamiliar land, feeling a mixture of emotions.
Bai Hao had been waiting here for a long time. He brought Rong Lin to the villa where the original owner Rong Lin had lived before. This villa was spacious and luxurious. In Rong Lin's words, it was "huge".
Bai Hao stood in the living room, holding a tablet, and began to report on his assets to Rong Lin. "Tianjun, you currently hold over a dozen stocks, over thirty properties, and sixteen investment projects. You currently control 55% of the shares of Rong's Enterprises. In addition, you also control Rong's Education, Rong's Fund, Rong's Automobile, Rong's Communications, and other business segments. In addition, you also have branches, subsidiaries, and overseas factories. Your total assets have now exceeded 80 billion, and this number continues to grow."
Rong Lin couldn't help but feel a headache after hearing these figures. He rubbed his temple and asked, "No wonder he was murdered. It turns out he possessed such a vast amount of assets and influence. So, how many assistants, secretaries, and confidants did he have?"
Bai Hao, now Rong Lin's personal assistant, naturally knew all about these matters. He replied, "There's one personal assistant, two work assistants, two drivers, eight secretaries in the secretarial office, and 20 bodyguards. There are also four people in this villa who are specifically responsible for taking care of your daily life."
Rong Lin sighed helplessly, reached out to take the tablet from Bai Hao, and carefully read the information. Then, he raised his head and asked a question that gave him an even greater headache: "Do I have a fiancée?"
Bai Hao nodded and replied, "Yes, you have a nominal fiancée. She's an artist under Rong Media, and you usually bring her to dinners and other important events. Of course, you don't use her for nothing. You've given her many good resources in return, such as leading female roles in film and television, business opportunities including magazine covers and luxury goods endorsements."
Rong Lin felt a splitting headache after hearing this. He concluded, "It seems that I've inherited a complicated family, a business world full of crises, and a bunch of women's problems that need to be dealt with."
Bai Hao smiled and nodded, saying, "That's about it. But don't worry too much, Tianjun. I will help you with these matters."
At this moment, Rong Lin's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was the old man of the Rong family. He sighed helplessly and picked up the phone. On the other end of the phone, the old man roared: "Where the hell have you been? You don't even know how to come back when you're alive? Come back to me within an hour. If you don't come back, don't ever come back again!"
Rong Lin could only agree and then hung up the phone. He looked at Bai Hao and said, "It seems that my life as a Heavenly Lord in the human world is not as easy as I imagined."
Bai Hao smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry too much, Lord Tian. We can always find a way to resolve these issues. The most important thing for you now is to adapt to this identity and this environment."
Rong Lin immediately got into character and then ordered, "Go get ready first. I have to go back to the Rong family. The old man has already spoken, so as a son, how can I not give him some face?"
The group drove to the old house of the Rong family, which was a large Rong villa covering an area of 20 acres. It looked magnificent from a distance.
As soon as they arrived, Bai Hao began to introduce Rong Lin: "Here, there's a cinema, a library, a swimming pool...it's got everything. The building in the middle is the residential building. Your six brothers and your 11 nieces and nephews all live here. By the way, you're already 30 years old this year and still single. The old man loves you the most and keeps urging you to get married. However, he's not very happy with your nominal fiancée, Su Jin, and keeps asking you to break up with her."
Rong Lin stood at the door, looking sharply at the Rong family's gate, and asked again, "By the way, how is your investigation going on with Lingjun's family?"
Bai Hao glanced at the watch on his wrist and replied respectfully, "Mr. Rong, it's one minute to the hour. I've compiled the relevant information and will send it to your email right away. You can check it anytime."
Rong Lin sighed helplessly and had to put the matter aside for the time being. "Well, let's go in and report to the old man first."
As soon as he entered the hall, Mr. Rong saw Rong Lin coming in. Without saying a word, he picked up the teacup next to him and threw it over.
Rong Lin was agile and dodged in an instant. He muttered to himself and almost wanted to cast a "send away" spell on the old man, but in the end he held back and said to the old man with a smile: "Dad, you're back. Isn't it okay? You've been recuperating abroad for over a month. It's just a few broken ribs. It's no big deal."
