50,000 years ago, Hell was destroyed because of too much Foul from the resentment of the souls that later turned to Soul Eaters and devoured everything in their wake, leaving nothing of Hell. The gods above in Heaven, in order to take care of the newly-died souls, created the Afterlife Department comprised of grim reapers. Huo Ling was delivering food that day when he met Yi Bing and the guy gave him a warning. When he arrived to the customer's unit, he was killed. Huo Ling: you set up a death flag for me! Yi Bing: I'm a grim reaper. I'm the flag myself. Let me help you solve the mystery of your death. Huo Ling: your sister! Alternative title: The Different Ways I Died at 23 Update: daily
Mortal realm, S City.
Yi Bing looked at Gu Lin who is standing not far from him. His gaze is filled with inquiry. "You are asking for a cooperation?" he asked. His voice is filled with doubt. He can't believe Gu Lin would say this to him.
Nope. What he can't believe is that Gu Lin would seek him to meet. Not to mention that they both are from different factions, that are the Afterlife Department and the Deserters, but Gu Lin also sneakily attacked him and Jin Wu before when they descended in the mortal realm to help Huo Ling and Mo Shi with their mission.
Though, Yi Bing knows why Gu Lin sought him though. And that is, the incident that happened recently. This should be related to Feng Er, who had an encounter with the Deserters which Gu Lin led.
