Who is the heir of the Jade Emperor? He is known as the Zhenwu Emperor and the Yaoyao Lord. We know that the Tianshi and even the Lord of the Three Realms described in the book are all one person-the Jade Emperor. So the question is, who will succeed the Jade Emperor after he retires? The author Wu Cheng'en did not specify the identity of this important successor in The Journey to the West, but we can still guess who this mysterious figure is by some clues in the book. Look carefully, speculate, and then infer.

The magic Buddha is very powerful. At that time, the Monkey King made a scene in the Heavenly Palace, and Zhenwu Emperor sent his subordinate Wang Lingguan to escort him. The result was a draw with the Monkey King. Then, as Wang Lingguan's immediate superior, isn't it even worse to wield the magic Buddha? Of course, Zhenwu Emperor is really powerful. It took only 42 years for Wudang Mountain to practice, and its achievements were full. In addition, there is a legend that he is the son of Pangu and the embodiment of the Yuan Dynasty, so Zhenwu Emperor may be the heir.

However, according to some reliable evidence, some people say that the jade emperor is a fairy as mentioned in the book and does not need so-called descendants. In fact, Tathagata, there are people who burn lamps. They are also immortal. Why should the next successor be appointed? To tell the truth, it is completely formal to appoint a special successor, because even the designated person may not be able to do that position.

Actually, something might happen. At that time, without successors, there would be struggles, and there might be no harmony in the sky. Therefore, no matter whether the Jade Emperor is immortal or not, he should appoint the next heir, and in case of unexpected circumstances, he should also have an heir to help him.
