Chapter 282 - Zero
Lord Zero, 0000. No one knew who he is, not even Di San. "I don't know." Di San answered.
Yi Bing smiled and stopped using the Calling on him. Calling can also hypnotize soone into telling the truth.
Di San snapped from the spell and he stared at Yi Bing with a pale face. His back was soaked in a cold sweat. "Y-Yi Bing…" he stamred. "What do you an by Lord Zero?" he asked. "And the Soul Fragnts we've gathered…" he added.
"You're more clueless than I am.." Yi Bing sighed and motioned for him to sit back. "Lord Zero is the first grim reaper, not ." He started. "When I was an archangel, I have heard of his na. His power is Calling, a summing power as well as hypnotic power. But, since the Upper Heaven and the Lower Heaven doesn't intersect, I didn't see this Lord Zero." He explained. "Even when I was demoted to a grim reaper, I didn't see him." He added.
Di San stared at Yi Bing in shock. "Yi Bing." He called. "I really don't know." He said.
Yi Bing nodded. "Then, tell what you know." He looked at Di San in the eyes.
Di San felt a cold object was on his neck when he felt his soul was being sucked in by those cold blue pupils. He imdiately spoke. "I only know about Huo Ling!" he answered.
Yi Bing's brows raised.
Di San bit his lip. "Huo Ling…" he said. "He is also a forr archangel." He told him.
Yi Bing's pupils shook. "… what did you say?" he asked as his grip on his cup tightened it cracked.
Di San held his breath when he felt the overwhelming pressure. Even Pei Guang outside raised his head and signaled his subordinates to imdiately leave since their boss is about to explode.
"H-Huo Ling…" Di San spoke in a trembling voice. His whole body is shaking in fear and his knees weakened. This is a forr archangel and the strongest grim reaper, Yi Bing! "Huo Ling was an archangel… 0000. And – " he said.
There's more?! Yi Bing thought, his eyes bloodshot and all of the objects in the store broke. Pei Guang saw them and he helplessly sighed. He imdiately fled outside.
Di San wanted to cry, but even his tears are afraid to co out and face Yi Bing. "And… you did sothing to Huo Ling." He said. "But, I don't know what it is! I just know that… that – " he took a deep breath, feeling almost fainting from the pressure Yi Bing is releasing. He saw the walls have cracked!
"That what?" Yi Bing asked in a hoarse voice.
"That… that you've done a sin to Huo Ling – "
BOOOM! The whole building collapsed with Yi Bing and Di San inside! "Boss!" Pei Guang cried and ran towards the debris. However, before he could co near, a strong force was released and thrown them all away together with the debris!
Yi Bing erged from the smoke of the dust. Then, he picked up the fainted Di San whose head is bleeding and his body has scratches. "Pei Guang." He called.
"Yes…" Pei Guang coughed, blood trickling in the corner of his mouth. With an internally injured body, he walked towards Yi Bing. He owed this second life of his to Yi Bing. If Yi Bing didn't plead rcy for him back then, his soul would've been dissipated by the Crown of Judges, never to rember his beloved wife again.
Yi Bing threw Di San to Pei Guang. "Bring him to Ruan Yu. Return him to as good as when he arrived in the city." He ordered.
"Yes!" Pei Guang answered and signaled his subordinates to carefully carry Di San away. "Boss…" he called.
"I really consider him as a friend. And – " Yi Bing said. " – he still has so uses." He said.
"Yes." Pei Guang nodded.
Yi Bing looked at him. "Continue your work as usual." He told him and walked away.
"Yes." Pei Guang answered and reverently watched Yi Bing disappeared in the darkness.
Afterlife Departnt.
Gu Shi suddenly felt a pain on his chest before it disappeared. "Jin Wu." He called through his communicator.
"Yes?" a youthful voice answered.
"… 4626?" he was surprised.
"Yes, director!" Mo Shi cheerfully answered. "What is it, chief?" he asked.
Gu Shi imperceptibly sighed. Jin Wu is being lazy again thus he let the youth answer his communicator. "Could you please check the assistant director if he's in his office?" he asked.
"Yes!" Mo Shi answered.
Gu Shi sighed. He knew Di San was avoiding him, and he could feel a part of his soul in Di San. He is a smart person, thus he knew that soul of his the Sweepers failed to collect, Di San took in his body. As to how he got past the Confernt Seal, Yi Bing was there with Di San. Thus, Yi Bing has helped Di San.
The door suddenly opened. Think of Cao Cao and he arrives. He saw Yi Bing entered his office without knocking. "I ran into 4626 on the way. He's looking for Di San?" he heard Yi Bing asked and sat on the chair in front of his table.
"Yes." Gu Shi nodded.
"Di San is avoiding you." Yi Bing said.
Gu Shi didn't answer. Instead, he asked. "Why did you help Di San puncture the Confernt Seal when it is very dangerous?" he looked at Yi Bing. "The consequences of a hole in the Confernt Seal is being susceptible to the Foul." He said.
"I know." Yi Bing said. "However, to Di San, you are his ntor." He looked at Gu Shi. "He just can't let a part of your soul disappear, right?" he asked.
Gu Shi didn't answer. "But…" he said.
"Alright. I've sent Di San to the City of the Dead to have fun. He has been stressed lately." Yi Bing said.
"Then, I'll call back 4626 – "
"I've already did." Yi Bing said.
"… thanks." Gu Shi sighed and tiredly leaned on his chair. "I now understand why you didn't want this post." He said, referring to the director seat. "You don't want to be tied, as well as don't want to be tired." He wryly smiled.
"It suits you." Yi Bing told him.
Gu Shi just chuckled. "Right. What did you co here for?" he asked.
"Huo Ling." Yi Bing directly answered.
Gu Shi's smile froze. What could it be if it isn't about Huo Ling? He thought. "What about him?" he asked.
"In the mafia world, he can rember a grim reaper." Yi Bing said.
"Who?" Gu Shi asked. He knew it wasn't him, since he has a reincarnation there so naturally everyone would still rember him.
"Di San." Yi Bing answered.
Gu Shi's pupils constricted and he rose from his seat. "What?!" he looked at Yi Bing in shock. "How… that can't be!" he said. Suddenly, he noticed sothing. "Wait – " he said and looked at Yi Bing in the eyes. " – Di San was there before?!" he was shocked.
"En." Yi Bing nodded.
Gu Shi's jaw dropped and he fell on his seat. "That can't be…" he muttered. "No one could rember a grim reaper. And, how can Di San be there…?" he asked.
"Your second sentence isn't impossible." Yi Bing said.
Gu Shi turned to him.
"That just ant, either Di San has a reincarnation there, or – " Yi Bing said. " – he was originally from there." he told him.
"Yi Bing…" Gu Shi muttered. "What do you know?" he asked.
Yi Bing smiled. "I'll tell you in exchange of your first sentence." He said.
"What?" Gu Shi was confused.
"'No one could rember a grim reaper'." Yi Bing said. "If this sentence is absolute, how can Huo Ling rember Di San when Di San's existence should have been wiped out after he beca a grim reaper?" he asked.
Gu Shi fell silent.
"Alright." Yi Bing said. "I'll tell you the answer to your question first, as this is related to my question, too." He crossed his legs. "There are two possible reasons why one can still rember a grim reaper. One: because the grim reaper is from that world." He said.
Gu Shi's eyes widened.
"Two – " Yi Bing said. " – that person who can rember is special himself." He said. "And by special, I ant – " he looked at Gu Shi in the eyes. " – he is outside the Heavenly laws." He smiled.
Gu Shi abruptly rose from his seat. "Yi Bing… how much do you know?" he asked. Suddenly, he rembered sothing. He stared at Yi Bing in shock. "What did you do to Di San?!" he asked, mad.
"I sent him to a good doctor because he fainted." Yi Bing answered.
"Yi Bing!" Gu Shi's voice rose.
"Gu Shi." Yi Bing called. "It is your turn to answer my question." He looked at Gu Shi in the eyes. "'No one could rember a grim reaper'. But, Huo Ling can rember Di San. What exactly is Huo Ling?" he asked.
