"Well... it's not that I'm being disrespectful to the Immortal, but there's a strict rule in the group that outsiders aren't allowed to stay in the archives without company. Also, I wonder what documents the Immortal needs to look at? It won't take much time, so you can hurry up and review them."
Xiao Jiang hurriedly said to Wang Yao.
"Oh, if you're worried I'll tamper with it, just turn the computer off. You can turn it back on when the fairy comes. I'm all alone here, do you think I'll smash the computer?" Wang Yao said.
"Immortal, please forgive me. It was my duty. Please don't make things difficult for me. If you're really worried that the fairy is getting impatient, just go and invite her yourself. I promise to wait for you here." No matter what Wang Yao said, Xiao Jiang just shook his head and refused.
"Um... how about you bring up my destiny chart and take a look?" Seeing that Xiao Jiang was very stubborn, Wang Yao didn't say anything more. In fact, this person was also a Ghost Master, much higher than the Shadowless Realm, and his red thread was completely ineffective.
Otherwise, I could arrange a marriage between him and the chair he's sitting on, letting him and the chair fall in love. Without needing the fairy's name, I could do whatever I wanted.
But the red thread couldn't be used. If he kept entangled with it, he would only provoke Xiao Jiang to turn against him, which would be of no use. Since he had come to this creative group's archives, he might as well look at the fortune telling first to buy time, and then talk about the camera later. He had to find a way to tamper with it.
“Um… I don’t have the authority to access the immortals’ horoscopes, only the group leader Gao can do that. Besides, the immortals’ horoscopes aren’t in this archive room; we can only access the horoscopes of mortals here.” Xiao Jiang shook his head repeatedly after hearing Wang Yao’s request.
"Access? You need access to view and adjust destiny records here?" Wang Yao hadn't expected this, and blinked as he asked. Xiao Jiang's comment that one couldn't access the immortals' destiny records here reminded him that there were two large characters "Human Realm" on the door of this room.
However, the exit here is a circular path. This room is in the human realm, and the rooms in the immortal realm are probably just next door. It's just a few steps away, so it's not a big problem.
The biggest problem is still the permissions issue that Xiao Jiang mentioned. Just like his version of the Matchmaker interface, the Underworld window cannot be opened, so he is restricted in the Underworld and feels very constrained in everything he does.
"Of course, our Underworld has had its fates altered at will by powerful beings from the Six Realms. So, when people from different realms come to our creative group, they have different privileges, starting with accompanying us, and the same applies to accessing and adjusting content."
"Immortal, think about it. If your destiny could be easily altered by a mere ghost from my Underworld, that would be the greatest irresponsibility towards you. Naturally, my Underworld cannot allow such a thing to happen," Xiao Jiang said to Wang Yao in a serious tone.
"What are you saying? So, if Gao Qunzhu can tamper with my destiny, does that mean he's in charge?" Wang Yao laughed in astonishment, thinking to himself that he had probably come for nothing. This Xiao Jiang didn't have enough authority. Even if he had memorized his password, he probably could only change the destinies of Mo Luopo and Fang Chengxian.
It's probably too late to change your ways.
"Immortal, you may not know this, but even the High Lord has no authority to adjust your destiny. Once your destiny is entered, the Underworld cannot touch it. Only if the Heavenly Court sends an immortal down can it be modified." Xiao Jiang said this to Wang Yao, which greatly surprised him.
"The Heavenly Court sent immortals down? Even the Ten Kings of Hell can't change my fate?" Now Wang Yao felt that the power of the underworld seemed a bit too weak.
"Of course, immortals are immortals and are under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court. Adjusting their fate is naturally the power of the Heavenly Court. Although the Ten Kings of Hell in the Underworld have boundless power, they only work in the Underworld and cannot affect the fate of immortals. Not to mention immortals, even the fate of demons is the responsibility of their respective realms."
Xiao Jiang said.
"This... damn it... does it mean that even mortals' destinies need to be adjusted by people from the human realm?" Wang Yao was utterly puzzled. There were people in the human realm who managed destiny? How come he had never heard of such a thing? Could it be that those blind fortune tellers had some incredibly powerful organization behind them?
"Ordinary mortals cannot cultivate, there is no concept of realm, and it is impossible for them to enter the underworld to adjust their destiny. Therefore, the Heavenly Court was entrusted to the underworld for management. However, a series of malicious incidents occurred later, in which mortal cultivators entered the underworld and wantonly altered their destiny."
"So the Underworld suggested that it would be better for the Heavenly Court to take charge of this matter, but the Heavenly Court was too lazy to bother with it. So the two sides argued back and forth for hundreds of years, and in the end, it is unknown whether the code for adjusting the fate of mortals was lost in the Heavenly Court or left in the Underworld."
"In short, it can't be found, so the fate of mortals is the most troublesome, and nowadays I'm afraid no one can adjust it," Xiao Jiang said to Wang Yao.
After hearing this, Wang Yao was stunned for a long time, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart. This mortal's fate cannot be changed at all, so what am I doing here?
"Um... if we find the password, will we still have to come here to adjust the fate of mortals?" Wang Yao thought for a moment and then asked Xiao Jiang.
“Of course. Even if the current Heavenly Emperor wanted to change his fate, he would have to come to our Underworld. The original data is all here. If we don’t change it here, there’s nowhere else to get it,” Xiao Jiang nodded and said.
"Original data?" Upon hearing this term, Wang Yao's spirits lifted. Yes, adjusting one's destiny on this computer was merely a means to an end; the real changes were to the original data. If one wanted to modify one's destiny, the most direct way was to find the original data and modify it.
"Of course, when it comes to space, no other realm can compare to our Underworld. Even the other five realms combined are not as big as our Underworld. Therefore, the original data of all living beings' destinies are stored in our Underworld. If you want to adjust a person's destiny, you have to come down here to do so," Xiao Jiang said with a hint of pride.
