Chapter 209 - Sect Master

Huo Ling was granted a medal by the emperor for heroically killing a Zerg queen. The planet where the Zerg queen is the nearest planet of the Zergs to their planet, and so it threatens their safety. However, Huo Ling killed it, and at the expense of his own life.

Truly heroic, yet deeply regrettable. Huo Ling is very young at the age of 23, and after they humans evolved they could live past two hundred years old, especially the S-rank and above, they could live up to four hundred years, and the SSS-rank can live for half a millennium. The humans will continuously evolve; thus it is possible for them to live for a thousand years. Jiang Ce\'s project was focused on this matter, and he is very brilliant, so living for a thousand years isn\'t a pipe dream anymore.

Thus, Huo Ling is very young when he died. He could even be considered as a child. With him as an S-rank, he can live a long life, for two hundred and fifty years, at most. Yet, it was almost just a tenth of he is supposed to live his age when he died.

"How unlucky.." Yi Bing muttered as he sighed ruefully. "Truly unlucky." He added as he shook his head.

"What\'s unlucky?" Huo Ling asked as his soul came out of the pendant and he stood beside Yi Bing, his back upright and his hands on his back.

"The person who had a grand funeral." Yi Bing answered.

Huo Ling tilted his head to recall the funeral a week ago. "That unusual funeral?" he asked. He can\'t forget the funeral, since one: it is very grand. Two, the people were walking on foot for a long travel when, in this era, there shouldn\'t be one or they are crazy to do that with the maglev cars to use to take them to their destination.

Yet, those people are really crazy to do such a strenuous task just to send the deceased off.

"Yes." Yi Bing answered.

"What\'s so unlucky about him?" Huo Ling asked. "He had such a grand funeral; it shows his loved ones really cares for him." he said.

"He died very young because he was schemed against." Yi Bing answered.

"It was really unfortunate, but all will still return to earth." Huo Ling said as his eyelids lowered, covering half of his eyes. "We all will have one destination: death. What matters is the time, whether we die earlier or later. The difference is the way we died, whether it was peaceful or painful." He closed his eyes. "Thus, one wishes for a painless death, but they were given the most painful one instead." He said and then opened his eyes to gaze at the clear, blue sky that was filled with the flying cars. "That\'s the life\'s irony. And so, some take their death in their hands. Yet, some were unsuccessful because they fear it." he took a deep breath. "And that\'s what make one cherish their life more, because death means their end."

Yi Bing stared at Huo Ling and felt worship for the first time. This Huo Ling, although died young (world-wise), yet he is the most matured among the reincarnations he met. This makes Yi Bing wonder what could have happened to Huo Ling, since based on the record of Huo Ling\'s life in the Death Note, Huo Ling grew up in a loving family, thus he shouldn\'t have this matured thinking.

I knew it. His personality must definitely have been affected by the Soul Fragment in this world. He thought as he let out an imperceptible sigh. Then, he forced a smile. "Is that a soldier\'s way of thinking?" he asked.

"\'soldier\'?" Huo Ling muttered as he turned to Yi Bing. "I am not a soldier." He told him.

"Huh?"

"I am a sect master, the name is Huo Ling." Huo Ling said as his brows knit. "Although the Fengshen Sect only has two disciples…" he muttered.

Yi Bing\'s pupils shrunk as he was stunned. \'sect master\'? He felt his mind whirled. He remembered, before, in the apocalypse world when Huo Ling was possessed by the Soul Fragment, not only had he remembered what Yi Bing have told him about the afterlife and such. But, he also said that he is the Fengshen Sect\'s master.

What\'s going on? Yi Bing felt dizzy. He had discussed with Qi Shan before about whether Huo Ling had a past life, and he confirmed from Gu Shi that Huo Ling might have one, before his life in the Stable World where he first met him, as he also has one, and Gu Shi told him that Huo Ling is related to his past life.

Fengshen Sect… Yi Bing thought as his lips quivered. He suddenly felt his soul stirred, and he gazed at Huo Ling\'s face. What happened in our past life? Is this Fengshen Sect related to it? What connection do I have with Huo Ling?

He closed his eyes tight as he tried to remain calm. If a grim reaper\'s soul would be detected to be chaotic, he will be investigated. And Yi Bing doesn\'t like it, since his soul will be pried upon. Although the process will reveal his memories as they were inspected to find the cause of his soul being chaotic, but he doesn\'t want others to do it for him, nor for others to peer into it.

Yi Bing took a deep breath and restored his calm as he faced Huo Ling. "Sect… master Huo." He called.

"This is strange…" Huo Ling muttered with a bewildered expression on his face.

"What\'s strange?" Yi Bing asked.

Huo Ling looked at him.

"What is the Fengshen Sect?" Yi Bing asked when Huo Ling didn\'t answer him.

"I\'m afraid I can\'t answer your question." Huo Ling said.

"Why?"

"Because I don\'t remember." Huo Ling answered.

Yi Bing froze as he stared hard at Huo Ling\'s expression. He isn\'t lying. He really can\'t remember. He thought as he lowered his gaze to hide his thoughts. "Aren\'t you puzzled why this world is different?" he asked.

"I am." Huo Ling honestly answered.

"Then, why didn\'t you ask me?"

"I don\'t like asking others."
