“Xu Wupan, what brings you here?”

Feng Qing’an had already found out this Military Judge’s surname was Xu. They were not complete strangers, yet they couldn’t be considered close either. This was largely because he found Xu boldly principled, almost to a fault, rendering him unlikeable.

“Second Young Master Feng, remember humans and ghosts each have their way, don’t let yourself be led astray!”

The Military Judge stood at a distance from Feng Qing’an, and despite the terrifying presence of the Ghost Nation Master in close proximity, he stared at Feng Qing’an with earnest intensity and sternness, giving him the warning he’d been holding onto for some time.

As early as last year, he had heard from the spirit of Feng Family Hill about the second son of the Feng household being in contact with a terrifying presence from the underworld.

He couldn’t understand why these ghost creatures from the underworld could ignore moral energy and freely enter and exit the Feng Mansion. However, as a ghost, he could only watch from a distance.

The mighty aura surrounding the Feng Family house was different from anything he had seen before. Sometimes, he even felt compelled to doubt whether it was moral energy at all, or perhaps some other force that was similar.

He had thought of preventing the entity from the underworld from getting in contact with Second Young Master Feng. He even witnessed along with the spirits of the land the arrival of this presence from the underworld.

But even he wasn’t foolish enough to try and stop it all by himself. He still had a bit of self-awareness left in him. The other party didn’t even need to do anything special, just walking normally would probably crush his tiny ghost body into dust.

But he could not enter the Feng Mansion, so he chose to observe for the time being. After a period of observation, he found that the entity from the underworld, although overwhelming, did not do anything to Second Young Master Feng.

Thus, he didn’t reveal himself or attempt to stop anything, but chose to continue observing. However, when he saw with his own eyes, the temple that was built less than half a year ago, along with the monks, all disappearing, he could no longer contain himself.

He could feel that the Law Field in Yongning County was sealed and isolated. His being outside tonight meant that even the City God couldn’t apprehend him, let alone expect that he would come forward at this moment.

“Is he your friend?! ”

East Glow asked expressionless, looking at Feng Qing’an.

She had always been aware of the existence of the Military Judge, but she simply couldn’t be bothered with him. It was like a person walking on the road would not be particularly concerned about the insects crawling in the grass by the roadside.

Simply because she did not care!

“Perhaps he is!”

Feng Qing’an glanced at East Glow’s expression. It was still expressionless as ever like most of the time, but he sensed some emotions.

“Second Young Master Feng, walking with ghosts will lead to no good end. Do not fall for their seductive appearance. For ghosts, beauty is but a means to bewitch one’s heart and mind. Beneath their appealing exterior lies unimaginable grotesqueness and wretchedness!”

Xu Wupan spoke unflinchingly, even as the golden armor on his body was silently cracking and shattering. He fully expressed the warning that was in his heart.

“She is not a ghost!”

Feng Qing’an wanted to go over and cover his mouth. Where did he get such courage to speak these words in front of East Glow?

He was truly helpless. Although it was true that those who could become ghosts were mostly people with both virtue and ability, Feng Qingan had never seen someone as rigid as this judge. It was hard for him to imagine that there was such a inflexible person in the world.

Telling it like it is, Feng Qing’an didn’t like having too much interaction with this judge, but despite this, he didn’t have any ulterior motives, because this ghost was too dutiful.

“Couldn’t you have waited until she left before giving me this talk? Aren’t you asking for death?”

Feng Qing’an was truly annoyed, there was no room left for him to manoeuvre.

“Fear not joy in life, and fear not death. Second Young Master Feng, if you really consider me a friend, I hope my demise would serve as a wake-up call. Break free from the illusion of beauty and don’t be bewitched!”

Upon hearing these words, even Feng Qing’an was stunned. When was he ever bewitched to such an extent?

Moreover, it was so exaggerated that the other party would willingly die to wake him up?

They’ve truly resigned themselves to death, haven’t they?!

“Indeed, they are a person of integrity who is worth being friends with. Your judgement is excellent!”

Before Feng Qing’an could think of what to say next to placify the situation,

Donghuang – the East Radiance – spoke up, instead offering words of praise. “You’re not angry?

“Why should I be angry? I am neither a bewitching specter that deceives humans with illusions and seductions, nor a narrow-minded ruler who is irate at every bit of unwarranted nonsense that the lowly minor ghosts spout!”

“If not, I implore Your Excellency to cease seeking Second Young Master Feng. The Yin and Yang maintain their order, life and death are separate, and humans and ghosts follow different paths. If you genuinely care for Second

Young Master Feng, then please stop harming him!”

The Military Judge spoke once more, this time addressing Donghuang directly. He was neither afraid of having his soul scattered nor terrified of anything else since he had already accepted death.

“Among human beings like you, there are rarely any ghosts and gods. However, such a straightforward and unbending personality must have made life incredibly challenging for you. You perished before even half your lifespan had concluded.”

There was a brilliant glow in Donghuang’s left eye.

“There’s no need for your concern, Your Excellency. I was a military commander in life. I had the opportunity to die in a battlefield, a fate envied by many martial artists. In death, I had the honor of standing on a divine altar, receiving the offerings of people’s incense. I am utterly content. I did not find it difficult!”

The Military Judge responded with unyielding conviction.

“Is that so? But I can sense lingering resentment in your heart, and your pride remains unfulfilled!”

“Why are you so critical?”

The eyebrows of the Military Judge furrowed. Contrary to his expectations, the terrifying entity before him was not provoked into annihilating him with a thunderous blow.

“I possess the Mirror of Three Lives which allows me to see your previous incarnations!”

As he spoke, a divine light shot out from Donghuang’s left eye. It formed an ornate square mirror, resplendent and full of divine radiance. However, there was no reflection of anything worldly within it.

“Would you dare to allow me to observe your life?”

“The Mirror of Three Lives? What have I got to fear? I have lived a life without shame, both before others and before myself!”

“Just as I thought! ”

The divine light from the mirror shone upon the Military Judge. The aura of the mirror surged, and within it, scenes from the Judge’s life rapidly played out like a slideshow.

Born into a prestigious family, he exhibited extraordinary martial arts talent and an unwavering, upright personality from a young age. It was only natural that he was nurtured and groomed by his family.

As the most outstanding son among his family’s direct descendants, it was inevitable that he would engage with other aristocratic offsprings and the power brokers of the nation. But how could his straight-laced personality blend in?

After multiple conflicts with other aristocrats, he was sent to the frontier after causing offense to a royal family member.

Thereafter, this talented yet stifled young aristocrat led his own troops and spent an extraordinary military career on the frontier.

However, everything came to a halt with a frontier war, involving an intense pursuit and counter-offensive, which lasted for nearly a month.

A young general, who had just found his direction in life, fought for justice on behalf of a village brutalized by Beastly Barbarians. He died on the frontier, his comrades and Beastly Barbarian corpses piled up into small hills under his feet, and his armor soaked with blood.

Yet, until his death, there were only his own troops and comrades around him. He had not seen a single reinforcement, even though the turmoil he had created had shaken the North region and had even provoked a Barbarian King.

“What a genuine hero!”

As the divine light in the Mirror of Three Lives receded, Donghuang – who had previously had an indifferent demeanor — had a completely different look in his eyes when he looked at the Military Judge. It was as if he had accidentally discovered an extraordinary gem, a rare and valuable treasure that had been cast aside by someone.

“With such military feats, yet only possessing the minuscule title of ‘County Military Judge’ , it’s truly laughable. This country does not deserve you. Come, join the Underworld! Serve under my command! I will let you command Ten Thousand Ghost Riders.. You will roam freely in the Underworld, taking cities and countries and you will face no restrictions whatsoever!”
