Chapter 200 - Agreent
Many years later.
Qi Shan watched as Lei Shan bid his farewell to Kale. He sighed as he looked at the sky. "So many won surrounded you, yet why did you choose to be single for life?" he muttered. "Even Kale found soone, as well as Hao Baiyun." He pouted. "Huo iying also has Huo Jinghua, and even Gerard! He has Lewis!" he lanted. "You are surrounded by many prospective partners, yet also surrounded by people with their own partners." He shook his head as he clicked his tongue.
He turned his head and looked at the newspaper on the table. The world was unified as it adapted the democratic way. Lei Shan was a forr actor that beca a politician. His first proposal is a democratic governnt in every country.. Ti proved that this proposal beca his last, yet also the biggest achievent. His unending goal changed the world.
With Kale's country as the first to change, the other countries followed.
Qi Shan calculated the ti before Lei Shan turns to a soul, and then left. As the grim reaper of an Important Soul, he naturally is clear of everything about them, including their goals and objectives of doing such a big event. Thus, he knew why this world underwent such a big change.
All for Huo Ling. That day, decades ago after Kale, Lei Shan and Hao Baiyun finally identified Huo Ling's murderer, they decided to change the world.
Huo Ling died because of Margaret. Margaret wanted to kill Huo Ling because of various interests, but they all point to the royal family – the monarchy. If there is no monarchy, there would be no Margaret. If there is no Margaret, Huo Ling wouldn't die. Thus, they want to overthrow the monarchy and change the world to democracy.
As to how Huo Ling died… Min Li actually didn't know Huo Ling. She only knew him through Margaret and Lei Shan. As to how she knew Margaret, that was when she went on a honeymoon with her husband in England. Because she was infertile and her husband has been beating her. Thus, when they went on a honeymoon, she killed him. After she stabbed him multiple tis, she threw him on the Thas River.
That was when Margaret happened to see her. Margaret likes her viciousness. Because both won are alike, attitude and husband-murderer, they clicked. She found out that Min Li is a famous broker, so she would know many people. Since Margaret can't leave the country because Kale and the council of elders were eyeing her, she had Min Li find Huo Ling and kill him. Min Li agreed in exchange of money, in which Margaret has.
Min Li didn't have to lift a finger though, since Huo Ling ca to her doorstep with the help of Lei Shan. anwhile, Lei Shan didn't have a single clue. And so Min Li easily killed Huo Ling.
After the news of Huo Ling's murderer ca, Min Li's cri of murdering her husband also ca to light. Su Heng was brokenhearted, and blad himself. His uncle was killed, as well as his artist Huo Ling, both were killed by the sa person, and it was the aunt he trusted! His family actually not that really ordinary, since even a couple like Min Li and her husband was present.
Min Li was sent to prison where she was tossed around by the inmates. She killed so of them who she can kill, and her cris increased. Then, she was issued a death penalty. But, it was other people who issued the death penalty on her.
To na so, Kale, Huo Jinghua… Hao Baiyun didn't get involve because Gu Xingfeng held him back and married him. anwhile, after Kale was demoted to a noble, like the Will family, he married Sam – a wandering artist. They lived the rest of their lives peacefully.
After Huo Ling's funeral, Huo Dakuan woke up and left the company to Huo Jinghua. He never got to et Huo Chengyi again, since Huo Jinghua sent Huo Chengyi and his wife, including their daughter Huo Ping, abroad. Huo Xi and Huo Dong were hired by Huo Jinghua and personally trained them. They didn't resent Huo Jinghua's ways after they learned his involvent with their father's disappearance.
Even if they resented him, they can't beat him. And so they diligently worked for Huo Jinghua. They never cared much about their arrogant father, ill-tempered mother and self-centered sister who all cared for themselves. They were actually relieved the three were gone in their life.
Huo Xuaner annulled Xiao Lianhua and thrown Xiao Lianhua and Xiao Luan out of his house. Xiao Lianhua was pursued by her stalker, Xiao Luan's father, again. Both died in an accident. anwhile, Xiao Luan who thought Huo Boyi would marry her was shocked when Huo Boyi got engaged with another woman. She freaked out and attacked Huo Boyi's fiancée, only to be slapped by the fiancée and she was jailed.
Huo Zhansan finally found Li Fei who was wandering in the streets after she beca ntally deranged. She was caught by an illegal research laboratory and experinted on her before they released her after they found her useless. Huo Zhansan wanted to sure the illegal research laboratory, but they couldn't find a lead.
Soti later after Huo Dakuan died, Huo Jinghua married Huo iying. Everyone was shocked, but after the news that Huo Jinghua isn't Huo Dakuan's son so he and Huo iying aren't blood-related, everyone shut up and accepted the news. Although Huo Jinghua isn't blood-related with Huo Dakuan, but he is more capable than any other son of Huo Dakuan. As to the truth of his birth, he was actually a lovechild of Huo Dakuan's wife.
Huo Dakuan was cuckolded, yet he unknowingly gave the company to the product of his dead wife's cheating. He must be rolling in his grave now.
In the underworld, Gerard Jackson disappeared after his separation from Huo iying. It was only when Huo iying remarried did he reappear. After they saw him, they thought that both parties have parted peacefully. Gerard Jackson then left the church with Secretary Lewis. Both n, people said that they didn't found soone to live with, but they were already living together so might as well get married.
Their wish ca true too soon. The underworld remained chaotic, but more peaceful. The mysterious overlord Lewis never appeared, and Secretary Lewis continued to be beside Gerard Jackson. As for his 'son', he gave up after Lewis Johnson changed him – well, more like return him to himself when he was a child.
As to the truth about his 'son', it was known later after Lewis Johnson was kicked out of their bedroom. He only managed to return to their bed after coaxing his proud husband.
…
Before Qi Shan could wander far, he was pulled back. He turned and saw Lei Shan who beca a soul ahead of ti.
"Where are you going?" Lei Shan asked, his voice and expression couldn't be any more natural. "Are you that in a hurry to escape from ?" he asked.
Qi Shan's face couldn't be any darker. "…" you're the one who's hurrying! Why did you die one hour ahead?! "If I am, why would I be here?" he asked.
Lei Shan didn't answer, but he didn't let go of Qi Shan's hand. "Since you said you aren't in a hurry, then let's take our ti in this world, okay? ^_^"
Qi Shan. "…" damn it! I fell into his trap!
(Lei Shan: you will never escape my trap. ^_^ /Author: cannot escape 1)
If only Yi Bing is here… Qi Shan thought. He can ask Yi Bing for help. However, Yi Bing already left with Huo Ling after Huo Ling witnessed Huo iying's marriage with Huo Jinghua.
"What are you thinking?" Lei Shan asked when he saw Qi Shan was absent-minded.
Thinking why did you suddenly beco mad! Qi Shan answered in his mind. It happened in the Special World, the zombie apocalyptic world.
After Yi Bing finished the remaining years Huo Ling was supposed to live to, Qi Shan continued to send Lei Shan tasks as an Important Soul. However, he doesn't know what happened but Lei Shan suddenly changed. He beca absent-minded, and beca more silent.
At first, Qi Shan didn't think much. However, when they left the Special World, Lei Shan suddenly seized him! He was caught off-guard! He didn't manage to gather Ah Xu's soul to convert him to a grim reaper since Lei Shan suddenly kissed him out of nowhere! Thus, Ah Xu was sent to his reincarnation.
Fortunately, Lei Shan was sent to reincarnation cycle. Qi Shan was scared-off by Lei Shan. Grim reapers, although working for the souls, have what the humans called 'human rights'. As for them, it is called 'reapers' rights'. This system kicked in when it felt Qi Shan's emotional fluctuations, thus it forced Lei Shan into reincarnation cycle.
However, after Qi Shan recovered from his shock, alarm bells rang in his mind. He imdiately checked Lei Shan's soul through the Death Note and sighed in relief that it wasn't damaged. Instead, Lei Shan's soul's strength increased.
For every lifeti a soul completed, its strength will increase. When it completed a one cycle, it will beco even stronger. And when it completed nine cycles – eighty-one lifetis, its strength can be compared to a grim reaper. But of course, an ordinary grim reaper's. However, the more significant a soul is – for example, an Important Soul, the higher the level of a grim reaper its strength can compare with.
So, Lei Shan, he will just beco strong and stronger, until he can reach a senior grim reaper's strength.
"No." Qi Shan spat out.
Lei Shan wasn't surprised. "Who was it that said he will work for …" he said.
"On the premise you are acting normal!" Qi Shan cut him off.
Lei Shan's brows raised. "Am I not normal?" he asked.
"No!"
"How so?"
"You – you… you've beco different." Qi Shan said. "Sothing's off about you!" he pointed at him.
Lei Shan fell silent.
"And I'll definitely find it out!" Qi Shan promised. "Thus, while you are still acting abnormal, don't casually touch and stay a ter away from !"
(A/N: social distancing? That's good. But bad for fictional CP's! QAQ no, don't stay away, Lei Shan!)
Lei Shan stared at Qi Shan. How was it that before, he was so sticky to to the point he'd even defy the Heaven just for to live on. Yet now… "Okay." He answered.
Qi Shan was taken aback. "You agree?" he was surprised.
"Shall I not?"
"No, no! Agree! You agreed!" Qi Shan said.
"Yes." Lei Shan said and obediently stepped back. Seeing Qi Shan was pleased, he smiled. Be happy for now. I'll definitely have you pay all this back when I finally 'catch' you!
In the past, Qi Shan was the one to chase him. Now, it was his turn to chase Qi Shan. You defied the Heaven for . So, I will break through it for you. He thought as he felt power coursing through his soul.
Wait for , Qi Shan.
Afterlife Departnt, Pathway of the Clouds.
Yi Bing stood again on the edge of the floor, just right before the clouds. Huo Ling naturally entered the reincarnation cycle without needing him to send him off through the Pathway of the Clouds. "You're curious what does the Pathway of the Clouds look like, yet you regretfully missed it. I'll stare at it on your behalf – " he said. " – and tell it to you again, when we et again." He clutched the orange pendant of the red-stringed necklace that was his gift for Huo Ling.
Until that ti, I'll hold onto this. This isn't a promise, but an agreent.
