Judge Lu 陆判
A third generation doctor, Bai Yang's father was wrongfully accused for selling fake drugs and was sentenced to death. Bai Yang sold off all the assets to fund his father's appeal. His fiancè, Zhang Xiao Man supported his effort despite her family's objections.
In the realm of the dead, there were four judges. One of the judge, Lu, disagreed with other judges as to the punishment for Bai Yang's father. Judge Lu believed that the father was only a fool and not inherently evil. If he were smarter, he would not have fallen for the fake drug scam that led to other people's death and his own death. To test this theory, he and his collegue made a bet to switch the heart of a fool, Zhu Er Dan, to see if he would do good or evil with his newfound intelligence. The smarter Zhu Er Dan witnessed Zhang Xiao Man being attacked and killed in the woods and did not save her. Instead, he asked Judge Lu to switch his wife's head with the beatiful Zhang Xiao Man's head. Instead of resigning to a lose bet, Judge Lu fulfilled Zhu Er Dan's request.
Zhang Xiao Man refused to be reincarnated because she didn't have a head. Being such, Judge Lu banished her to the depth of hell. Bai Yang discovered his fiancè's ill fate, and with the help of Dong Yue heaven lord, he went to the realm of dead and saved his fiancè. Finally, evil got it's punishment, and good got it's reward.
