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
Before anyone could react, including Huo Ling, Lin Jin has seized Huo Ling's neck and pointed a dagger to his throat.
"You said that you would help me save Lin Weng, right?" he whispered. "As soon as I brought Lin Weng to somewhere safe, I will definitely return to save you. So, please cooperate with me as an exchange for Lin Weng." He told him.
Huo Ling. "…" fck! I didn't mean this kind of help! He thought with a dark face.
"Lin Jin! What's the meaning of this?!" Fang Buzi asked as they all looked at Lin Jin in shock.
Huo Ling was about to feel touched at everyone's concern towards him after he saw their reactions when he heard Fang Buzi continued.
"If you want to kill someone, do it elsewhere!" Fang Buzi told him. "This sacred temple isn't a slaughterhouse!" he added.
Huo Ling. "…" fck you, you hypocrite! Isn't what you are doing right now is slaughtering Lin Weng?! He thought and cursed all the hypocrites before him, including Lin Jin.
