The King of Hades looked at him. He wanted to say something but stopped. Then, he sighed and left.
Not long after the King of Hades left, a strong wind suddenly blew. The initially peaceful Huang Yang Town suddenly descended into a chaotic situation with heavy rain and strong wind.
Lu Zhou sat in front of the tea table and listened to the sounds of the wind blowing against the window. His face was calm.
He poured two cups of tea, drank one himself, and placed the other opposite him, as if waiting for someone to come.
The closed door was suddenly blown open by the wind. A gust of cold wind blew in and the door closed automatically.
A burly figure appeared in front of him, glaring at him angrily.
“You’re here?”
Lu Zhou spoke nonchalantly and gestured for the person to take a seat.
“Speaking of which, I haven’t seen you for more than twenty years. You seem to have done a good job as an official.”
This person was the King of Hades’ subordinate, Official Lu.
Official Lu did not sit down. Instead, he slammed his palm on the table and questioned him. “What’s the meaning of this? Where did you put my life-and-death register?”
“Life-and-death register?” Lu Zhou smiled. “Didn’t I destroy your life-and-death register more than twenty years ago?”
“That was fake,” Official Lu replied guiltily.
Lu Zhou glanced at him coldly and did not speak.
“She should have died when she was ten years old back then. If you had not saved her by accident, she would not have lived for an additional ten years.”
That year, when Lu Zhou came to the Netherworld to create a scene, the King of Hades had a headache and allowed him to erase that girl’s name from the life-and-death register.
However, he had always been a straightforward person. He refused to give in and felt that everyone who deserved to die had to die on time. Hence, he secretly made a fake life-and-death register and handed it to Lu Zhou.
After that, that woman died in a car accident. For some reason, her soul dissipated.
He and Lu Zhou were siblings from the same mother. For this matter, Lu Zhou had ignored him for more than twenty years.
However, he had always felt that he was right.
Hence, even though Lu Zhou had not come to find him for years, he had also not taken the initiative to find him.
Until yesterday, there were suddenly more than ten ghosts in the Netherworld whose lifespans hadn’t exhausted yet. There was also one who was only a few years old. He should have died when he was fifty. In the end, his life ended at six years old because of someone.
In his fury, he ordered his men to investigate. In the end, it was better if they did not investigate. Once they investigated, they found out it was actually the doing of his younger brother, whom he had not seen for years.
“She has never done anything wrong in her life. Why did she end up like that?” Lu Zhou questioned coldly.
He had accidentally saved that woman. He did not expect to meet her again more than ten years later.
He was careless back then and someone cast a love spell on him. In a moment of folly, he slept with that woman.
In order to take responsibility, he intended to take care of her for the rest of her life. However, he did not expect to have calculated her fate.
At that time, she was already pregnant with his child. This was completely unexpected.
In order to repay her, he could only go to the Netherworld to find Official Lu. However, this fellow had a one-track mind. Right was right, wrong was wrong. Whatever the outcome should be, it would be.
Lu Zhou only knew after the woman died that the life-and-death register Official Lu gave him before was fake.
In a fury, he ignored Official Lu from then on. The two brothers had not seen each other since then.
Official Lu coughed lightly and lowered his voice. “Everyone’s life in the life-and-death register is predestined. They cannot be changed easily. Moreover, I cannot break the rules of the Netherworld.”
Lu Zhou waved his hand, hinting for him to stop. He said lightly, “I’ve killed them. Do whatever you want.”
