Chapter 649

The Fengdu Great Emperor seemed to weep blood with each sound, shaking heaven and earth, carrying utmost sorrow, rolling June flying snow, covering the human world.

In the scorching heat, this ghost‑god emperor's body trembled slightly, as if angered; a kind heart like fallen into an ice cellar, lamenting the injustice of the world—can it still be made right? I am so wronged!

This mournful aura and spirit gave people the illusion of empathy, crossing the barrier of time and space, striking the hearts of all beings, making their hearts tremble, unconsciously reflecting, hesitating—could it be that we are wrong? Have we truly wronged good people?

The myriad beings were bewildered and distressed; the tumultuous public opinion became a stalemate, leaving them undecided.

【Just like that……】

Beneath Celebration Armor's sorrowful visage lay a calm spirit as steady as an old dog.

As the Tuba, being the conscience of humanity, having been immersed in it, how could he not know what kind of nature the people of humanity have?!

Those demon gods can sling mud, tarnish his purity……Could it be that he wouldn't feign misery, play the victim, then strike back with a vicious counterattack?

He also possesses the skill to sway people's hearts!

In fact.

The benevolent thought of humanity also clearly knows its own indecisiveness and split personality, easily exploited, so after painful reflection it decided to personally cultivate an emperor who is the strongest and most capable of standing up for the myriad beings and seeking benefits for them……Thus Fengxi was accomplished!

Of course, the help humanity can offer is limited; the back door is open, but the road must still be walked by oneself……Poor Celebration Armor still needs to bring his acting skills online, to turn the tables.

However, this is merely a small side dish.

【Thanks to Luo Hou, old iron, for the help!】

Celebration Armor sincerely secretly praised, this time Luo Hou the demon ancestor has achieved merit.

In the past, Fengxi was arranged by Nüwa and intervened by Fuxi to go participate in the Great Luo cadre's further study ideological education training; "by chance" he passed by the prison where Luo Hou the demon ancestor was locked up, thus opening a magnificent, sweeping life.

There, Fengxi experienced many things and understood the scandalous pasts of many mighty powerful beings……Among them, what left a deep impression on him, which he still cannot forget today, knowing the miserable end of failures, was that Luo Hou the demon ancestor wrote a book stained with blood, even leaving traces of having written the word "wronged" seven times.

Whether Mr. Luo Hou is wronged or not, we'll set aside discussion for now—discussing it may not yield a result, after all it's hard to overturn a case……Who let Luo Hou the demon ancestor offend so many ancient god sages, and be so ruthless?

However, when he was thrown into prison, amidst his grief and indignation, desperate state of mind, the emotions carved into the blood‑written book are quite capable of moving people's hearts.

Now, Celebration Armor pondered and borrowed nine‑tenths of that spirit's essence, then manifested it upon himself……Sure enough, the effect was outstanding.

It caused the myriad beings to waver, to begin doubting and reflecting——Among these, Celebration Armor's appearance is on point; at first glance he looks like a good person, making people's worldview follow his features.

It also made the myriad gods astonished, they began to scrutinize this newly enthroned Fengdu Great Emperor with a different gaze, feeling they need to re‑acquaint themselves with him.

——Others don't know, but those who have the permission to directly retrieve unhidden historical information—those permission‑holding dogs—wouldn't they know either?

——Yandi of the Da Ting clan, that's you, Fengdu Great Emperor Celebration Armor!

——And yet he flatly denies it……That's speaking nonsense with eyes wide open!

"Oh no!"

In the Heavenly Court, Di Jun's gaze sharpened, as he thought of something.

Precisely at this moment, facing Celebration Armor's fervent performance offered to humanity's myriad beings, there was a one‑in‑ten‑billionth of a finger‑snap's time; his gaze swept across the ancient eternity, meeting Di Jun's eyes.

That glance seemed like an eternity, holding a smile, carrying a faint mockery, as if it could speak, conveying his will——that was a sentence.

"Sorry……I've become a substitute!"

The Heavenly Emperor suddenly rose, drawing his sword and making a light slash, as if to cleave through eternity and strike into the river of past time.

But at this moment, humanity's reaction speed is even faster!

Under this even stronger permission‑authority force, the vital energy of humankind surged and boiled; under the circumstances of "fairness" and "justice", they publicly unsealed a file hidden in the important lands of humanity, to serve as a response to the Fengdu Great Emperor's application for evidence.

——That is the appointment document of Yandi of the Da Ting clan!

There is text.

There are pictures.

And there is a slight subtlety that made some gossip‑watching ancient god sages burst into laughter.

"Shocked!"

In the Heavenly Court, being both a Yao Marshal and a Historian, and also the chief of the Honghuang gossip wild history who fabricates nonsense, Báizé now stifles a laugh, simultaneously blasting out group messages via Trumpet on the many obscure Honghuang forums that cannot see the light, attaching the enticing phrase "If you don't repost, you're not a Honghuang person/demon/witch/dragon", while sporting a massive shocked expression.

"The girl is actually of the Da Ting clan!"

"The current Yandi actually posthumously conferred imperial title on his deceased daughter—could this be the last stubbornness of a human father?"

"Let the little editor, in vain, bring you to understand the story behind this, to feel the bitter‑sweet life of a generation of human emperors……"

Báizé's Trumpet wrote furiously.

As a cultured person, he is taking money from humanity, earning a little extra, and greatly praising the human emperor's kindness and righteousness.

Of course!

At the same time, as a meticulous person, he still has professional integrity!

After all, he's receiving wages from the Yao Court, so he ought to live up to this treatment!

Therefore, on the other side, another wave of Trumpet‑driven criticism erupted, launching fierce attacks and critiques on the same matter.

"Shocking!"

"The human emperor bypassed election rules, secretly granted his daughter imperial status, trampling the principles of fairness and justice—humanity, eat dates and cause trouble!"

Do one thing, get paid twice.

Báizé the Yao Marshal is very pleased, meanwhile narrowing his eyes with a smile as he overlooks the cycle of reincarnation in the netherworld, watching the Fengdu Great Emperor's performance.

"This is a good play."

Báizé the Great Sage thought, feeling an urge to applaud by beating the rhythm.

"My Dao is not alone……My Dao is not alone!"

……

"This is the appointment document of Yandi of the Da Ting clan recorded in humanity's archives, verifiable."

The Fengdu Great Emperor spoke in a low voice, carrying an indescribable sorrow and helplessness, as if because he had been falsely accused for no reason, he was forced to painfully defend himself, feeling hurt.

"Some friends, at the whisper of wind they think it's rain……When you ask them to do something, they can't; but when it comes to talking nonsense, they're stronger than anyone."

"I don't even know where they got their rumors, knowing that humanity's Yandi lineage now has an extra person; moreover, unwilling to lose in the election, holding the most malicious intent toward the world and toward humanity, they fused two originally unrelated identities together, framing me and putting the blame on me."

Qing Jia opened his eyes, spouting huge lies, talking nonsense, true and false, deceiving the masses.

"Everyone can see it now!"

"Is this Yandi of the Great Ting Clan... me?"

"This is definitely not me!"

"But those who framed me insist that this is me!"

"I'm wronged!"

Qing Jia cried out sadly, "Spreading rumors takes a mouth, refuting them breaks your legs."

"Fortunately, the human race has records that exist, and now they are willing to open them, so I can regain my innocence..."

He transmitted his voice across heaven and earth, at this moment "setting things right," explaining clearly—

"What secret collusion between humans and the Wu Clan, the Ghost Emperor and Human Emperor being one family…… does not exist!"

"Yandi is Yandi."

"The Ghost Emperor is just the Ghost Emperor."

"There has never been a case of holding two positions, pretending to be the Ruler of Gods and Ghosts while claiming to act for humanity's sentient beings, and on the other side secretly colluding with the human race group, turning public into private."

"After such a performance, even those who had deceived the masses would believe it."

"However, in this world there are ultimately 'clear-sighted people' and also 'dedicated people'."

"After all... the Heavenly Court side does not want to lose here so obscurely, and still has some struggle."

"I don't believe it!"

"Another candidate shouted loudly, issuing a fierce protest and appeal."

"The Demon God's Trumpet was not killed off once and for all; someone was still lurking, and now they have jumped out."

"Qing Jia's face showed no anger either; he appeared very approachable, willing to accept questioning, 'Oh? What else do you have to say?'"

"Please speak out... I believe the eyes of humanity's sentient beings are surely sharp!"

"I bear witness!" the Demon God's Trumpet said, word by word, "I once saw this Fengdu Great Emperor, before the election, in close association with the Houtu Ancestral Witch, being led around the Netherworld, putting on a show everywhere!"

"Can't this still prove anything?"

"Oh? Is that so?"

"Before Qing Jia could answer, the vague consciousness of the Human Dao trembled, demanding the witness provide specific time and place."

"This Demon God did so truthfully."

"However……"

"This time, Qing Jia doesn't need to take the lead in the performance!"

"The manager of the Netherworld shop, a Yin God who had been patronized by the Demon God as the evidence site, jumped out, using an incredibly excited tone, his volume no less than the earlier full-screen broadcast of the Demon God who dared to commit suicide, 'I finally found you... you guy who ate a tyrant's meal and didn't pay!'"

"You ordered two tables of my dishes but only paid for one!"

"Hearing this, the Demon God's burly frame shuddered, then shuddered again, a third time, opening his mouth to speak."

"This world is too strange."

"When did he do this? How could he not know?"

"But it is quite obvious."

"Having gotten involved in such a matter, his testimony becomes even less persuasive, and his credibility is highly questionable."

"After all, can one expect moral character from a guy who can't even pay for his meal?"

"I didn't!"

"The Demon God shouted, requesting a time reversal to prove his innocence."

"But unfortunately... he cannot prove it!"

"Because in the reversed time, it indeed showed he had ordered two tables of food!"

"The Demon God was stunned."

"He swore that this scene was fake, the real situation had been distorted!"

"But when he tried to prove it, he faced unprecedented suppression, unable to wash out the editing, or even the traces of forgery, in here."

"At this point, he suddenly remembered... Houtu, although just a background figure, does exist after all!"

"What a naive guy!"

"At that moment, Qing Jia's light laughter rang in the Demon God's ear, 'You don't even look—this is whose turf!'"

"You follow the rules, play openly and aboveboard, so we will also openly and honorably contend with you."

"But you want to play dirty?"

"We will accompany you to the end just the same!"

"Isn't it just being shameless?"

"Isn't it just framing and setting someone up?"

"As if nobody knows how to do that!"

"The Fengdu Great Emperor is extremely ruthless."

"Not only does he kill demons, he also wants to exterminate hearts!"

"Please tell the Demon Emperor behind you... to wash his neck clean and wait!"

"From now on, when going out, be careful... you might not be able to leave, and if you do, you won't be able to come back!"

"You!" the Demon God exclaimed in shock and anger, wanting to say something, but it was already too late.

"Because of the problem of owing a sky-high tyrant's meal, he has already been dragged away...... next, he will face a series of lawsuits, and his daily life will not be easy."

"But before that, he had already conveyed the Fengdu Great Emperor's words to Di Jun, causing the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Race to twitch his cheek muscles slightly, then burst out laughing."

"This young man, he's got some spunk!"

Unfortunately, unaware of advance or retreat... overbearing aura leaking, courting death!

Exactly! The many demon gods and the Yao Marshal present in the hall shouted in unison, "If we break through the Nether Soil, we shall slay Fengdu!"

The demon emperor recorded the ghost emperor in his little notebook.

Of course, Qingjia wouldn't care either.

After a series of operations that broke the bottom line, it was quite effective... most of the filthy water was cleared out, but the witnesses meant to testify instead found themselves tangled in legal disputes.

When it comes to hooligan behavior, he clearly knew the ins and outs, striking and beating, suppressing the demon court's arrogant aura.

However, he also knew that this didn't mean he could rest easy.

——The seed of doubt had indeed been planted; although he directly resolved the person who caused the problem, suspicion would not disappear.

In the hearts of the common folk, doubt eventually arose; they merely hid this doubt in their hearts, not speaking it aloud.

Just like a buried landmine, it would explode at some unknown time.

After all, the Heavenly Court would not just stand by; it would eventually add fuel to the fire, pick at his weaknesses, and brew the coming of an Absolute Kill strike.

Moreover...

'There's also the Heavenly Dao...'

A flicker of divine light passed across Qingjia's eyes; he coldly watched the arduous completion of the process, as a hint of divine majesty blossomed from the Dao Ancestor.

'What a huge uproar!'

The Dao Ancestor spoke from the unseen, shaking the three realms: 'Everyone, what do you think?'

'Sorry to have made you laugh!' The Human Emperor Yandi showed up at the right moment, 'I never expected that, because of my commemorative gesture for my daughter, it would cause such a great misunderstanding!'

'This inevitably makes one sigh: the greatest distance between people is not in space or time, but in the suspicion and estrangement of the heart!'

'My daughter Nüwa is the Yandi of the Daiting clan; and the Yandi of the Daiting clan is my daughter Nüwa... This is beyond doubt, everyone, don't mistake it in the future!'

Yandi spoke solemnly, appearing very sincere.

Qingjia looked at this 'Yandi'—the goddess Nüwa—and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

'The goddess has also learned to be bad!'

He silently sighed, 'This time, cooperating with me to lie and forge, he got up to speed so quickly... altering all the documents and certificates, forging them outright!'

'Except for that crucial document overlapping Yandi and the Great Emperor of Fengdu that I have here, all the other legal grounds have no loopholes!'

'However...'

'Goddess... I think you may have possibly fallen into a big pit...'

'If one day this thing is thrown out...'

'Yandi of the Daiting clan, the Great Emperor of Fengdu, and Houtu Nüwa... when these three overlap, you will be framed!'

'After all...'

'Many other things are merely rights and authorities...'

'Only this thing is a huge responsibility; once stained, it cannot be shaken off!'

'I am now very doubtful...'

'Is there some tacit understanding being reached in the unseen?'

'Everything is unfolding quite reasonably, the clash between the demon emperor and me, the Dao Ancestor's eagerness to intervene...'

'But in a moment of carelessness, they nevertheless tacitly staged a move for you...'
