Jian did not beat around the bush. She simply repeated to the First Yama what she had previously told the Ninth Yama. This time, to verify her own guesses, she weighed her words carefully before speaking:
"Lord Yama, I would like to ask: the one who vanished within the sealed realm—is he someone from the God Realm undergoing reincarnation and re-cultivation? What grievances does he have with you, or rather, with the Underworld?"
Although she did not name him, the Yama naturally knew who she was asking about and said directly: "His name is Chen Hai. The Underworld's primeval soul tree was stolen by him. To avoid being tracked afterward, he made the Jian Family of the Immortal Realm take the blame as a scapegoat. Although there is no direct evidence proving he did it, he still received punishment and was forced to undergo reincarnation and re-cultivation. If he fails to ascend successfully, his divine soul will be unable to return to its rightful place, and he will be completely ruined."
Jian had contributed a great deal in this matter, so the First Yama did not hide anything and told her straight out.
