2 Choice

"Oh, right! Miss, did someone else get hurt in the process?"

Su Fang asked her. If Xin Kang and his cronies got shot, then his sacrifice would have been for naught.

His words also brought the beauty out of her daze and she answered him with her sweet voice.

"No. Mr. Su Fang, you were really great back there. You not only stopped the attacker, but your actions also bought enough time for people from the school's guard. The attacker was swiftly apprehended, but regretfully, you had already breathed your last before that."

The smile on the beauty's face also returned. Since the other party had already come to terms with his current situation, her job had turned a lot easier. She wished that more people were like him — so calm and understanding!

"That's good. At least, I didn't die for nothing."

Su Fang spoke with a smile.

"Mr. Su Fang, I understand that you might have a lot of questions about your situation, where you are, and who I am, right? Well then, I will start the explanation by introducing myself. Mr. Su Fang, I am Tian Ke'er, the Judge of the 97th Hall of Judgement."

The beautiful woman, Tian Ke'er, introduced herself. When she spoke about being the Judge of the 97th Hall of Judgement, Su Fang felt as if her captivating smile had changed into a proud smile.

"That's a nice name, Miss Tian."

"Well, thank you for you compliment, Mr. Su Fang."

Tian Ke'er nodded to Su Fang and then started to explain his current situation to him.

"Mr. Su Fang, though you are already aware of this fact, but let me say it again: You are dead, and you can't be revived back in your world!"

"I understand, please go ahead."

Su Fang remained calm and waited for Tian Ke'er to speak.

"Since that matter is now out of the way, let me answer your former question about where this is, and where you will be going."

"This place is the 97th Hall of Judgement, one of the many Halls of Judgement in the Divine World. This is where the fate of the mortal souls is decided. So as to not overload your mind with unnecessary questions, I will ask that you think of this place as the afterlife. That will make it easier for you to comprehend everything."

"As for what will happen to you now, well, you can't go to Heaven, but please don't misunderstand. It's not because you are evil and can't go to Heaven, instead, it's because you have only gone through part of a single cycle of your existence. To be considered for an entrance to Heaven, you need to at least live through two cycles of existence. One cycle of existence equals to 127 years of life as a mortal."

"As of now, you have only lived for 18 years and still have 109 years left in your first cycle of existence. So, you will need to live for another 236 years before you can be considered for Heaven. And just like you need to live for 2 cycles of existence to be considered for Heaven, you also need to have lived through 2 cycles of existence to be considered for Hell. In simple words, you can't go to Heaven or Hell just yet."

Explaining 'till here, Tian Ke'er stopped speaking and waited for Su Fang to comprehend what he had heard. And as she expected, Su Fang fell into deep thought. After a good 10-20 minutes later, Su Fang raised his head and looked at the beautifully smiling Tian Ke'er.

"Then, Miss Tian, since I can't go to Heaven nor Hell, the only option left is the lottery Wheel of Samsara right?"

"That's not..."

Before Tian Ke'er could even reply to his question, Su Fang cut her off.

"No, wait, Miss Tian, is there any option to have my existence erased? Making me completely disappear? Be poof? My soul and consciousness, is there a way to completely obliterate it?"

Saying this, Su Fang quietened and looked at Tian Ke'er with hopeful eyes.

"Eh..."

Listening to his words about wanting to have his consciousness and existence erased, Tian Ke'er was stunned and couldn't think of what to say. What was going through this person's mind? She wondered. Finally, after being dazed because of Su Fang's words for a good 2-3 minutes, Tian Ke'er finally spoke up.

"Mr. Su Fang, that is not possible. At least, no Judge in the Halls of Judgement, or existence in the Divine World has the ability to completely erase someone's consciousness or existence. An ability like that, only the Heavens might possess that."

"Well, can't be helped then..."

Su Fang accepted the reality and replied with a dejected expression. It would have been great if he could just be nothing.

'How tired of living is this person? What an odd one!'

Tian Ke'er felt her facial muscles twitch ever so slightly. Just when Tian Ke'er calmed her twitching muscles, Su Fang spoke up again with a bright expression and glowing eyes.

"Since I can't be poofed into nothingness, Miss Tian, let's go for the lottery Wheel of Samsara... I wonder if I will be a human in the next life, oh, being an eagle wouldn't be too bad either..."

"Mr. Su Fang, there's nothing like a lottery here!"

Tian Ke'er felt that she couldn't let this man speak any more nonsense. She had to get this done with and move on to the next soul.

"Mr. Su Fang, as you have yet to complete two cycles of existence, you will be living a new life to complete those two cycles. Normally, the Judge in the Hall of Judgement would use a special ability to seal your memories and send you off to your new journey, but there are always exceptions."

"As you are the 981749525th person to be judged in the 97th Hall of Judgement, you get to choose your fate from various options you will be provided." [Author: That number is Nine Hundred Eighty One Million, Seven Hundred Forty Nine Thousand, Five Hundred and Twenty Five.]

"Tsk... Miss Tian, didn't you just say there was nothing like a lottery here?"

Su Fang clicked his tongue and disgruntledly asked.

Listening to his words, Tian Ke'er's facial expression twitched even more violently. Her warm smile also changed into a forced smile as she started slowly walking towards Su Fang.

"Tik! Tok! Tik! Tok!"

In just a few steps, Tian Ke'er was standing in front of Su Fang. The two were so close that Su Fang had no doubt that if he took a step forward, his chest would be sticking against Tian Ke'er's majestic assets. The scent of lilies that was spread throughout the room was now far more concentrated now, and it relaxed his mind even more. Just when Su Fang was subconsciously going to take in a long breath to savor the sweet scent, Tian Ke'er raised both her hands and cupped his cheeks with force.

Tian Ke'er then raised her head and looked into Su Fang's eyes with narrowed eyes. The two were so close that Su Fang felt her breath tickle his nose. Just when Su Fang opened his mouth to say something, Tian Ke'er's luscious cherry lips parted and her words made their way to Su Fang's ears.

"Now listen here, you Dumb Dumb, you have three options in front of you: Have your memories sealed and be reborn into a new world as a newborn baby; Transmigrate into the body of someone around your age who is soon going to die; Or move to a new world with a new body constructed using your soul as the mould. These are the three options you got. Besides this, you also got one wish that will be granted so long as it is possible! Don't you dare say that 'word' once more!" [Author: The word is lottery!]

From an elegant, calm, and mature beauty, Tian Ke'er had immediately changed into an irked little tigress who couldn't wait to smash a hammer on his head.

"Make your choice!"

"You could have just..."

Before Su Fang could say 'You could have just gotten to this point as soon as I arrived!', Tian Ke'er cut her off.

"CHOICE!"

'Damn, she looks like a tigress that will pounce on me if I don't make a choice.'

Su Fang thought. His face was completely sandwiched between Tian Ke'er's soft hands. Although the feeling of having his face distorted by her silky soft and cool hands was heavenly, Su Fang didn't dare to keep her waiting and made his choice.

"Thi.. Third."

It was very hard to speak with his mouth all squished.

"WISH!"

Tian Ke'er asked with her eyes still narrowed and focused in his eyes. Although she looked like a tigress, Su Fang felt she was very adorable.

"Can wu chell me what chind of wold it ish?" [Author: "Can you tell me what kind of world it is?"]

Ah, how disgraceful. He couldn't even speak normally.

"It's a brutal dog-eat-dog world full of Cultivators! Even a weak fly would be able to smash you to death with little effort."

Listening to her words made Su Fang's face twitch like crazy. He was sure that this now-tigress did it on purpose. She was picking on him by sending him to a brutal dog-eat-dog world.

'Dammit, woman, I didn't even do anything so why are you trying to pick on me!'

Su Fang raised his hands and grabbed onto Tian Ke'er's soft 'boneless' hands and tried to pull them away from his face. He had thought it would be easy, but it took a lot of effort to just pull them enough for him to speak normally.

'Damn, what does this woman even eat?'

He wondered.

"Miss, you are just picking on me now! You can't just send me to a brutal world like that! I want to go to a world full of kind people, that's right, that's my wish."

Su Fang spoke his wish, but immediately realized that the tigress was looking at him with disdain and mockery.

'Fucking hell, I was dumb to be tricked by her previous image!'

As he thought about how he had been tricked, Su Fang heard Tian Ke'er speak with a snicker.

"There's no world full of kind people! You are just delusional! Calling you Dumb Dumb is the right thing to do, Dumb Dumb! Change your wish!"

Su Fang felt his face twitch with an even greater intensity. Although he wasn't at the top of the ranking charts in school, he was still in the top 20. He was certainly not dumb. This tigress was just fucking with him now.

"Good, I want to take you with me then!"

As soon as he finished his words, Su Fang saw that the mockery and disdain in Tian Ke'er's expression increased. It was as if she was saying, 'What a fucking retard!'

"Dammit, don't tell me even the wish needs to be according to your wish?"

"Nope. But a Judge can't leave before their tenure ends. There are still five years before I can leave the Hall of Judgement, so you can forget about bringing me along in your suffering!"

"Fucking hell! You are just intentionally making things difficult for me, right? Like this, can't you just send me to some hellhole by giving a reason like molestation or something like that?"

"Hmph! I am not an unfair judge; I have already fixed the world you are going to, and it can't be changed anymore. Don't worry, if you are a little cautious, you will be able to survive well, and with a pure body constructed by the Divine World, your talent will be quite high as well. Now make your wish!"

"I hope you aren't lying! I want the ability to vanish into thin air without leaving behind a trace. Yeah, that's what I want, absolute stealthy invisibility that no one can break no matter how strong. If I want someone to hear my words, they hear my words, if I don't want them to hear, they don't! Survival first!"

"Granted, Dumb Dumb!"

'Damn, at least ask for confirmation!'

As soon as the tigress granted his wish, Su Fang felt Tian Ke'er's cold hands turn warm. Followed by her hands turning warm, a relaxing warm current coursed through his body. In the next moment, Su Fang felt his vision blur and then clear up again.

"So, I now have the ability?"

Su Fang asked while still tightly holding onto Tian Ke'er's hands. He didn't dare let go. He was sure that the moment he let go of her hands, he would receive a sandwich slap. He didn't want that.

"Yeah, you now have the ability. Just think about turning invisible and see. By the way, if you have any other question, speak it up as you only have two minute before you are sent to the new world."

"Oh! Am I invisible now?"

Su Fang spoke after he thought about turning invisible.

"Yeah."

Tian Ke'er replied. It was as she had said, he was indeed invisible right now, and even Tian Ke'er couldn't feel his presence. If not for the fact that her hands were still clasped by his hands, she wouldn't even be able to tell where he was.

As for why she had yet to take her hands back, she was waiting, waiting for the moment the golden curtain falls to take him away. That would be the moment she delivers her ultimate sandwich slap to him who would be unable to move. If they were not in the Hall of Judgement where she was limited by various restrictions so as to prevent violence, he wouldn't have been able to move her hands by even a millimeter.

"You said that the world I am going to be sent has already been decided, and it can't be changed?"

Su Fang asked.

"Rejoice!"

Tian Ke'er replied.

"Well then, tigress, there's only one more thing left."

Su Fang spoke while still being invisible.

"What is it?"

Tian Ke'er asked, but didn't get a reply. Su Fang had stopped moving or speaking. If not for his hands still holding her own with the same amount of force, she would have thought he had vanished into thin air, literally. Tian Ke'er called out to him multiple times, but Su Fang just didn't reply.

There were only a few dozen moments left before he would be transported to the new world.

"Hey, it's about time..."

Just when Tian Ke'er opened her mouth to say something, her words came to a halt. The hands that were held by Su Fang were freed from his grasp and moved forward with full force. But, instead of giving him a sandwich slap, they wrapped around his head that had avoided her slap by moving ahead.

"Wu... Wu..."

In the next moment, Tian Ke'er felt something warm come into contact with her mouth, and something wet and slippery invaded her mouth through her cherry lips. Two arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her forward with force, while the wet and slippery invader entwined her tongue and pulled it out before it entered an unknown place that started to greedily suck onto her tongue.

In the next moment, the invisible Su Fang appeared in front of her again as her tongue was freed from his mouth. Though her tongue had been freed, her waist was still held tightly while her body pressed against his. After receiving the attack that was completely out of her expectations, Tian Ke'er's mind was blown away and she could barely register what just transpired.

As she was still in a daze, a golden light started to wrap around Su Fang. The golden light immediately brought her out of her daze, and she saw the satisfied smile of victory adorning Su Fang's face. Tian Ke'er immediately tried using force to get away from this perverted predator, but before she had even moved backwards, she felt something peck on her forehead followed by that perverts voice.

"Hehe... Little Tigress, thank you for the meal! Let's meet again when I die the next time!"

As those words made their way into Tian Ke'er's words, the golden light flashed and Su Fang disappeared from the 97th Hall of Judgement, leaving behind a crimson-faced Tian Ke'er whose eyes were burning with rage.

"BASTARD! Ahhh!!!"

Tian Ke'er screeched and then ground her teeth. Unconsciously, she raised her right hand and her fingers lightly traced her wet lips, immediately making her recall the former disaster. Her face immediately turned even redder as she swore to find that bastard and break all his limbs, before torturing him to death. He deserved that! How could he do that to a maiden like her?

Tian Ke'er started to inhale and exhale long breaths to calm herself down. It took her a good 1 hour to calm her anger and bring her burning crimson face to normal. She couldn't sit there fuming all day, she still had to judge other dead people.

Standing up and fixing her appearance, she put on her former professional smile, and waved her hand. A light shot out of her hand, and in the center of the room where Su Fang had just stood, a mist started to rise. The mist slowly started to unconver in such a way that Tian Ke'er could only see the opposite party's face, and a silhouette of their figure.

"Welcome to the Hall of Judgement, Miss Qin Xue!"

In front of Tian Ke'er stood a beautiful young maiden. If Su Fang were here, he would have immediately recognized the beauty standing there. She was the same girl that Dong Dong'er was plotting against, their school belle, Qin Xue'er! Even when compared to Tian Ke'er, Qin Xue'er's beauty wasn't too far off. Tian Ke'er thought that if the girl in front of her got a few more years to grow, she would be no less beautiful then herself... [Author: What the duck happened? How come this girl also died? Wasn't the guy apprehended?]
