[BL] I Became a General in Hell after Dying

[Mature Content - Reincarnation/ Cultivation/ Past Lives] Can death be a new beginning? Xie Bian wakes up in the Underworld being interrogated by King Yanluo, who tells him he has a job for him, and to stop calling him King! He's going to join the mysterious Fan Wujiu in bringing errant souls to the Underworld so that they can follow the cycle of life and death as intended. Something is keeping the souls of the dead in the human realm, and it's Xie Bian's and Fan Wujiu's task to find out what. But there's more than meets the eye to his fellow Underworld General. Fan Wujiu is cold and distant, and keeps Xie Bian at arms length -- almost as if they've met before. And what is going on with the odd book Yanluo gave Xie Bian, who tells the life story of the mysterious Fu Shulin, in his quest to become an extraordinary cultivator despite his humble background? Something tells Xie Bian that these events are all connected, and that somehow he's in the middle of it all. --- Xie Bian: Was I not supposed to forget my past life after dying?

Life is painful and short

Xie Bian was surprised that Fan Wujiu was smiling at him when he turned around.

"What gave you that impression?" he asked.

"It feels personal," Xie Bian replied, being honest because he thought that was what Fan Wujiu deserved. "Your hatred of Tao Yuanming, your feelings regarding Jade Dragon Manor. You're not disapproving from a distance..."

Reading about what Fu Shulin had gone through made him realize that it was a different thing entirely to hear second-hand accounts of what something, or someone was like, compared to experiencing it first-hand. He still didn't know how things would turn out for Fu Shulin now that he was a Jade Dragon Manor disciple, but he didn't think Tao Yuanming was going to let the embarrassment slide.

"What do you hope to achieve with my answer?" he asked. His tone was neutral, but his gaze was probing.
