"Wukong alone might not be able to handle everyone in the Nether River," Xuan Ming calculated carefully, his mind clear.
He thus called over Houtu and Di Jiang.
Di Jiang asked, "Sister, what do you need from your brother?"
Xuan Ming said, "The Nether River seeks to slaughter the mortals and exterminate all under heaven to prove his holy path. But if he truly kills all under heaven, what will become of our Reincarnation Netherworld?"
Holding the Reincarnation Ledger in her hand, Houtu said, "This Reincarnation Ledger exists because of reincarnation, controlling the life and death of all under heaven. If the Nether River defies the Heavenly Dao and kills, I'm afraid the number of wrongful deaths recorded in this Ledger will drastically increase, leading to the eventual bursting of the Netherworld by aggrieved spirits!"
Houtu, holding the Reincarnation Ledger and controlling the life and death of all under heaven, thought, what if all the people were to die in a few days?
