2022, “Sức hấp dẫn của truyện kể [The Appeal of Stories]”, in Ngữ văn 10 [Vietnamese 10], page 12:Không hiểu sau đó rồi vị thần ấy chết hay sống, hay là trở thành Ngọc Hoàng. Việc đó không thấy dân gian kể đến. Nhưng chắc rằng cũng cách khoảng thời gian ấy không lâu có một vị thần tên là Ngọc Hoàng hay ông Trời cai quản cai quản tất cả mọi việc trên trời dưới đất.- It is not clear whether that god was alive or dead, or became the Jade Emperor. Folklore has no further details on that. But one thing for certain, not long after that time, there was a god called the Jade Emperor or Lord Heaven who look after all things in the universe.
