Special World 600.
"Hey… wait. What's with these tails?!" Huo Ling exclaid when he saw that his soul has gained nine tails. His face is covered with black lines.
"Senior Huo, look! My soul seems to be surrounded by flowers!" Xiao Hualing exclaid. She sounds thrilled.
"Wait… I wasn't ready for this situation!" Huo Ling said. "How did I get tails?! And nine of them… wait. What tails are these?" he asked.
Xiao Hualing turned to him. "Senior Huo, you are so handso!" she sincerely said. "Ah, wait… those tails… it seems like they are of a fox's? White fox!" she said. "And, you are a fire fox." She added.
Huo Ling. "…" how did I beco a fox?! He thought as he pinched the space between his brows, feeling an incoming headache. "Honestly, I have never encountered a world like this where our souls would directly be affected. Fortunately, the situation doesn't seem bad…" he said and sighed. "I am sorry." He apologized.
"No problem! This seems fun!" Xiao Hualing said and giggled as she spread petals on her feet. A fragrant scent wafted in the air.
"… if I should follow you and spread fire, the forest will definitely be caught by a wildfire." Huo Ling said.
Xiao Hualing. "…"
Huo Ling wryly smiled. "Let's brief ourselves about this world first." He told her.
"Okay!" Xiao Hualing nodded.
Special World 600 is a modern world filled with yao. With the advanced technology of the humans, they have already formulated plans and created devices that can detect, identify and capture yao that are troubling the humans.
Of course, there are also yao who are good and only wanted peace for the world. Albeit the advanced technology of the humans, their abilities are still limited. Thus, the governnt sought cooperation with the organization of the yao and they call it 'Special Committee'.
"Yao who have strong cultivation can manifest in human forms." Huo Ling said after he read the docunt about this world. He looked at Xiao Hualing. "We don't need to borrow a corpse to beco our bodies, then." He told her as he placed his corpse body inside his suitcase. Then, he transford his suitcase into a watch.
"Yes." Xiao Hualing agreed and followed him. But, she transford her suitcase to a ring.
"Clever." Huo Ling smiled.
Xiao Hualing giggled. Then, they used their spiritual energies to create a body for them.
…
"… senior Huo, have I already told you that you are very handso?" Xiao Hualing asked as she stared at Huo Ling in a daze.
"You had." Huo Ling heaved a sigh. "You are also beautiful." He sincerely said.
Xiao Hualing giggled. "Thank you for the praise." She said.
"Xiao Hualing. What about your task?" Huo Ling asked her.
"My task is to investigate the frequent disappearances of the Golden-Haired Monkey clan mbers." Xiao Hualing answered. "They are a large yao clan and if they all disappears, and highly likely die, then it wouldn't be good." She said.
Huo Ling nodded in agreent. Yi Bing has already told him about the balance of the energies in every world. The Golden-Haired Monkey clan should also hold a large amount of this world's energy. "It just so happens that my assignnt is a Golden-Haired Monkey clan mber." He said as he took out his Death Note while they walk.
"Really?!" Xiao Hualing exclaid in surprise. She only heard from Bai Liu and Wu Yi that Huo Ling's next destination is Special World 600. But for the specifics, they don't know. So, they had her follow him.
Obviously, they respect Huo Ling's intelligence and strength.
"En." Huo Ling nodded. Then, he sighed when he saw the details. "… the cause of death wasn't specified again, and the direct teleportation spell to go to the assignnt's side is disabled." He frowned.
"… senior seems to be used with this situation?" Xiao Hualing asked.
"… yes." Huo Ling helplessly smiled. "Due to the rules of the worlds, we, grim reapers, will be restricted, be it our abilities or our devices and spells…" he said. "This is for the world to protect itself, and also because we are outsiders. And outsiders just can't be more powerful than the natives of the world, right? As well as they can't just do whatever they please." He explained.
Xiao Hualing nodded in understanding. "So that is how it is…" she muttered. "I also agree with this!" she said.
"Mn." Huo Ling nodded. "Fortunately, we aren't that much restricted. And that only the direct teleportation spell to my assignnt was disabled." He sighed in relief.
"Then… what should you do now?" Xiao Hualing asked.
Huo Ling scratched his cheek. "Fortunately, this isn't the first ti this happened." He said.
Xiao Hualing. "…" is it really that comnding for you to experience this situation before? She thought and sighed.
Huo Ling awkwardly coughed, seeming to guess what she is thinking. "The direct teleportation spell to the assignnt was disabled due to a special circumstance." He spoke. "In my previous world, the spell was restricted because my assignnt's soul was trapped inside the Soul-Trapping Sword. anwhile, in the world before that, the first soul assignnt that I had but beca Abnormal Soul afterwards, her soul was separated from her resentnt…" he took a deep breath.
Xiao Hualing looked at him with eyes wide in surprise. "These all happened?!" she exclaid.
"En." Huo Ling answered with a nod. "So, my assignnt should be in another special circumstance, that is why I can't directly teleport to where it is. Like Zhuo Xia, if I directly teleported to where he was, my soul would have been trapped, too, inside the Soul Trapping Sword." He explained. "So, the direct teleportation spell being blocked is actually good, since it can make the grim reapers safe." He said.
Xiao Hualing was shocked. "Fortunately, it was blocked…" she heaved a sigh of relief.
"Yeah." Huo Ling agreed.
"Then, right now…" Xiao Hualing muttered.
"Right now, we have to gather information about the Golden-Haired Monkey clan." Huo Ling spoke. "Xiao Hualing. Didn't you just say earlier that the Golden-Haired Monkey clan's mbers disappeared?" he asked.
Xiao Hualing nodded. "En. And they most likely are dead." She said.
Huo Ling's expression turned serious. "Now, this has turned to a criminal case…" he muttered and pinched his chin as he pondered. "Since this has turned to a criminal case, then, the next thing that we should do is…" he looked at her.
"Hm?" Xiao Hualing muttered and tilted her head as she looked at him.
Huo Ling. "…" right. Xiao Hualing is an innocent girl who is ignorant of her world. She shouldn't know about the police. He thought and sighed. "Let's go to the police first." He said.
"'police'…" she muttered.
"It is an organization of upright people that enforces law... ai." Huo Ling explained, then sighed as he placed a palm on his face when he saw Xiao Hualing's dazed expression. "Just follow ." He told her.
"Okay!" Xiao Hualing answered as she walked behind him.
"Oh, right…" Huo Ling muttered when he rembered sothing. "To avoid trouble, use invisibility spell." He told her.
"Yes." Xiao Hualing nodded and used the spell. Her figure then instantly disappeared.
Huo Ling also uttered the invisibility spell, and his figure disappeared after Xiao Hualing.
…
Sowhere…
"Hm?" Tian Tian muttered and raised his head when he sensed sothing around them.
"What's wrong, elder young master?" Zheng Jian asked as he followed behind the youth Tian Tian.
"Brother?" Tang Tang called as he looked at his elder brother.
"I… seem to feel a powerful fox near us." Tian Tian answered and his eyes narrowed in vigilance.
"Oh? A powerful fox?" Lan Tian's eyes narrowed as his pupils glowed to scan their surroundings. He is a hawk yao.
"Should we leave?" Jin Chulin worriedly asked as he looked at Zi Chen who is silently following behind them.
Zi Chen's nose twitched. He is a wolf yao. "Indeed. I slled the scent of a fox yao, as well as a flower spirit." He said as he looked at them. "But, they are too far away, and the direction they are going to isn't towards us so they shouldn't have seen us or that they don't know us." he explained.
Jin Chulin sighed in relief.
"Zheng Jian. Use your power to check where are these two yao right now." Lan Tian told Zheng Jian.
Zheng Jian nodded as he squatted before he placed his palm on the ground. "They are going towards northwest." He answered.
"Elder young master. Shall we continue shopping, or should we go ho?" Lan Tian asked.
Even though the two unknown yao aren't going their direction, but who knows if they are enemies?
"No." Tian Tian shook his head. "Let's follow them!" he said.
"… huh?" they muttered and stared at him in surprise.
The young Tang Tang sniffed the air. "This scent… sa as daddy's…" he muttered.
Lan Tian, Zheng Jian, Zi Chen and Jin Chulin were dumbfounded. What?! The sa scent as Hao Baiyun's?!
