Chapter 513: Teleportation Trouble

Hui waited, unwilling to break his connection entirely. Come on, someone hurry back! Im waiting urgently online! Theres a battle going on, and its just a matter of time before someone kills this poor dead cultivator!

Outside, Mo Riyan and Long Tongshi clashed in a spray of sparks.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

I, your father, will teach you a lesson! Mo Riyan snarled.

Youre a thousand years too late to be my father! Long Tongshi shouted back.

Another explosion rattled Huis bones. He flinched. So intense ahh, please dont kill me! Im already dead! I dont want to go back to the Underworld. Not when Im so close to seeing everyone again!

Hui? Can you hear me?

Ah? Yes! Did you find him?

Theres no time to waste. Quick, tell me something only Song Wei and you would know! Shen Aiguo barked, unusually terse.

Hui startled. Uh, uh Oh! That day, when he came to the forge, I called him a wounded tiger. Tell him that!

Tell him hes a wounded tiger? Shen Aiguo said, confused.

Justit should tell him its me, Hui said, nodding.

There was a pause. Oh. It worked?

Lao Ning stepped in. Song Wei, the teleportation array is

Hui waited nervously, twiddling his thumbs. Come on, come on! Let me in! Im running out of time. Teleport me in. I dont care where! As long as I can drop a seed, I can always return to the Southern Sect Conference!

A cold hand settled on his shoulder, his physical shoulder. Its time. We have another mission.

Hui gritted his teeth. Not yet! A little longer. Im almost there!

Song Wei is flying over at top speed. Hes going to teleport you in! Shen Aiguo called.

Hui opened his eyes in the dragon temple. Long Tongshi and Mo Riyan clashed overhead. Whirling his spear, Long Tongshi darted in. Mo Riyan planted his feet, ready to deflect the spear thrust.

Eh? Elder Brothers, what happened? Hui asked. Did the resentment demon infect them and turn them against one another? Did they go mad while I was gone? Is this

Long Tongshi lowered his spear, and Mo Riyan stood. Ah? Have you given up? Mo Riyan asked.

Oh, wait. Thats right. Some cultivators think its fun to spar. I forgot. Hui held his hands out toward them. Hurry. Theyre going to teleport us in!

Long Tongshi and Mo Riyan exchanged a glance. After a moment, Mo Riyan jumped over and grabbed Huis hand.

Regarding him with distrust, Long Tongshi carefully took Huis other hand. Youd better not be lying.

The reaper waved him on. Back to the mortal realm. Where else?

Elder Sister, can we enter the Immortal realm? Hui asked. The way she said that implies

She shook her head. You cant.

Ehwait, but Elder Sister can? Hui asked, tilting his head.

The reaper sighed. It isnt important. Lets hurry, before we miss our chance.

Can Zhu Diyu enter the Immortal Realm? Hui asked.

Of course he can. Its by his authority that I

Does everything you do rely on Zhu Diyus authority? Hui asked.

The reaper narrowed her eyes at him. For the first time ever, she exerted her pressure. Something immensely heavy settled onto Huis shoulders, barely restrained by the reaper. It was as though a thousand pounds leaned onto him, barely held up by someone much, much stronger than him.

Hui dropped to the ground. Many apologies! This small cultivators tongue slipped! I didnt think before I spoke! Please forgive this small cultivator!

The pressure vanished. Sighing, the reaper turned away. Keep up.

Eh? Im coming, Hui said, hurrying after her.

You should wonder what it is that kept me here for so, so long, the reaper murmured, barely loud enough for Hui to hear.

Hui looked up. What was that? What kept the reaper here?

No, but she has a point. Shes remained in the Underworld for all this time. In fact, when I first arrived, she hinted that everyone here has unresolved business. What is it that would keep her here for as long as shes remained? What is it that she still hasnt resolved, after so long?

Hui frowned. He glanced at the reapers back, at her white robes and firmly set shoulders. Shouldnt there be two reapers? White Impermanence and Black Impermanence. But instead, theres only one. She and Zhu Diyu both have referred to the missing reaper, the one Im filling in for. Could it be something to do with that?

I wonder next time I have free time, after I meet my kids, Ill poke around the Underworld and see if any of the other ghosts have any idea what happened between the reapers, back when there were still two. Maybe the other reaper died er, extra-died. Entered the cycle of reincarnation?

Wait, what did happen to the other reaper? Were all dead here. Its not like they could have died again.

right? Right?

Anyways, whether the other reaper is what shes hung up on or not I should definitely look into them! If the previous second reaper vanished for whatever reason, whats to say this small cultivator might not also disappear? I need to know, I must know! My poor little life might hang in the balance here!

In any case, Elder Sister is clearly White Impermanence, wearing all white as she does. That means I must be Black Impermanence, right? Hui plucked at his robes, looking at the same blue as usual. Though I look more like Blue Impermanence right now

Hurry up, the reaper said, glancing back.

Coming, Hui called, hustling to her side. Ill worry about that when I get back. First, lets finish whatever it is that Elder Sister wants me to do, meet my children at last, then well figure out about the other reaper!
