Chapter 0004: The Distinction Between Immortals and Mortals

Her premonition is not unfounded, truly not

I am worried in my heart; what does Tang Man want to discuss privately with King Yan? Why doesn't she want me to know? What is she planning to do?

I hurriedly walked in and couldn't help but ask: "Tang Man, what exactly did you say to the King of Hell?"

He did not wish to continue speaking, so he took the last sip of tea, then stood up, preparing to leave. Tang Man said, "Yama, I want to talk to you alone"

I think that this time, he is turning a blind eye to allow you to come down again, not to agree with the matters between the two of you, but rather... to help you understand this principle for yourself, that there is a distinction between the celestial and the mortal realms..." the King of Hell said slowly

The King of Hell nodded, "Since you understand, I shall not say much more."

The sky gradually brightened, yet I felt not a trace of fatigue

Is this the consequence of the distinction between the celestial and the mortal

Furthermore, every character on the Book of Life and Death is not written by me, but is the will of Heaven! Li Tian, as a fortune teller, you must understand this! After all, even though you are the foremost person in the Yanghe Library, there is still a gap between you and the Green-Clad Fairy. You must also comprehend the difference between mortals and immortals..." the King of Hell continued.

Tang Man's eyes were red; the usually calm gaze of hers was unexpectedly moist, reminiscent of the sorrow she felt when her brother-in-law was captured by the Celestial Daoist. At this moment, her grief was even more profound than before

You are aware," said Tang Man

Is it possible?" Tang Man continued to speak

As for becoming an immortal, I have never pursued it. However, at this moment, I have thought about it, yet thinking alone is of no use.

With a creak, the door opened, and due to the arrival of dawn, the King of Hell had long since vanished. Tang Man sat alone in the chair, her eyes red, yet her gaze was as calm as water, as if she had made some decision during the night.

Tang Man shook her head with moist eyes, "Don't say..."

I took a deep breath and closed the ledger of life and death. Tang Man beside me also had a flicker in her gaze; she had always remained calm, yet at this moment, there was a hint of tremor...

The register of life and death is not favorable to me and Tang Man's daughter, it is extremely unfavorable

I do not know how to express this, and I cannot respond. If I were to be with Tang Man, but it would lead my daughter into an irretrievable situation, what should I do

He may have other matters to attend to

If both of you are unclear, I can explain. After the two of you come together, Tang Man will give birth to a daughter, but she... may be born with...

I hesitated for a moment, then nodded and walked straight out

Tang Man had fallen silent, her eyes slightly lowered

After all, the register of life and death is of great importance, as it pertains to the register of life and death across the Three Realms, affecting the life and death of every individual

Tang Man was taken aback, her eyes glistening with moisture, and she unexpectedly felt a sense of helplessness. "He can, he can... I will go plead with him..."

The King of Hell shook his head, saying, "Since ancient times, mortals cannot become immortals; this ironclad rule has remained unchanged from the time of Pangu creating the heavens until now. Even when the Supreme Old Lord personally sent a manifestation to descend to the mortal realm for cultivation, he still could not break this ironclad rule"

You are the favorite youngest daughter of the Jade Emperor. If you ask him, he should be able to help, but he is also powerless; how can he help? This is an ironclad rule, " the King of Hell emphasized.

My expression changed, "But what is it?"

I understand

Because the brief description above shocked and pained me so much, it is evident that Tang Man was also taken aback.

Tang Man refilled his tea and then gently said to me, "Li Tian, could you wait for me outside?"

I too find it hard to bear

With a soft sound, after I walked out, Tang Man gently waved her hand, and the door closed. Under the light, I could see two indistinct figures inside through the window, engaged in conversation...

Regarding the last section of my life and death register, it has been torn out, which means I do not even know who my daughter is

Therefore, it is inherently inappropriate for immortals and mortals to be together. This is also the reason why, back in the day, the Queen Mother of the West allowed the Red-Clad Fairy and Dong Yong to meet only once a year. Furthermore, this is why immortals must obtain the Jade Emperor's permission before descending to the mortal realm..." Yama continued.

I want to make Li Tiancheng an immortal!" Tang Man said, her gaze resolute

How to overcome this hurdle

I feel a bitterness in my heart, and suddenly I feel powerless

Yama shook his head, "I am not quite sure."

Tang Man was already stunned, her voice trembling slightly, her eyes showing a hint of panic, "So, what you're saying is, my father..."

I originally thought that when Tang Man returned, things would get better, but that is not the case

"Of course, Princess, since you have spoken, I naturally have no objections." The King of Hell sat down again

I nodded, knowing that King Yan had given Tang Man this favor; otherwise, it would not have been so easy for him to produce the Book of Life and Death.

The King of Hell was immediately at a loss, "What does it matter if it is clear?"

I cannot accept this

I understand. I feel as if I am utterly lost.

His gaze subconsciously fell upon Tang Man

I paced back and forth outside the picture book, this night is more difficult to endure than any other night

"Yama, could you help my daughter just as you helped me back then?" Tang Man remained silent for a long time before speaking softly.

Sigh, at that time, helping you was within my capabilities, so there was naturally no reason to delay. However, your daughter is a being I cannot even aspire to reach; she is..." At this point, the King of Hell suddenly stopped speaking.

I don't care!" Tang Man shook her head, "I want it!"

Then how do you two consider it? The King of Hell, seeing that both Tang Man and I remained silent, asked.

The King of Hell's expression changed, "This ... ..."

The King of Hell coughed once and took the Book of Life and Death. "I will show you the Book of Life and Death, but please do not disclose this to others. Otherwise, everyone will want to see the Book of Life and Death, and that would be a disaster"

Yama, the King of Hell, was immediately at a loss, "This, I fear, is beyond even the Jade Emperor's capabilities"

Tang Man has always held great respect for the person who once helped her

Mortal beings cannot attain immortality unless they die and become souls; only in the form of a soul do they have the opportunity to achieve immortality
