Afterlife Department

"Leave!" Yi Bing said in a low but cold voice, telling all the grim reapers present in the surroundings.

How can they dare to stay after Yi Bing told them to leave? So, the City of the Dead suddenly became full after all the grim reapers in the first and second floors of the Afterlife Department building left and evacuated to the City of the Dead. The grim reapers chilling out in the City of the Dead were shocked but then they also were interested since the City of the Dead suddenly became full.

Meanwhile, only Gu Shi, Yi Bing, Di San, Shou Ji and Shi Jiu were the only ones left in the Afterlife Department. Not even a soul could be seen, literally. Oh, and also Jin Wu, who noticed the commotion, is here. If this was the usual, Jin Wu would have provoked Yi Bing by chatting with him. But, he doesn't want to die since, right now, he can see that Yi Bing is on the verge of exploding as he impatiently looked at Gu Shi.

How can he have the mood to chat? This clearly isn't the time to have a chat! Yi Bing is very angry right now!

"Yi Bing." Gu Shi called as he fought the urge to flee and suppress the fear to not let his knees tremble as he faced Yi Bing. "This matter, I fear that this matter has something to do with the Deserters." he immediately said, getting to the point.

Di San, Shou Ji, Shi Jiu and Jin Wu were stunned. Everyone present already knows about Li Fengxin's case, including Jin Wu who was told by Mo Shi about the exchange of fates. How can they be unfamiliar with the Deserters? So, Li Fengxin's case is actually related to them?! They thought. They are surprised since it has been since ages that they heard the name 'Deserters', which is rarely spoken.

But, they also aren't surprised since, now that they think about it, the Deserters really know how to exchange fates. Only them would be this daring! But, what everyone expected to see Yi Bing also be shocked didn't happen.

"Oh." Yi Bing muttered with a bland tone and blank expression on his face. "Only this you wanted to tell me?" he asked as he looked at Gu Shi.

Everyone were shocked. Yi Bing didn't even put the matter of Deserters in his eyes?! They thought, then suddenly shuddered when they felt that the surroundings dropped greatly. The next second, they saw Gu Shi's figure flying and hit the wall, instantly making a body print on it.

"Block me again and I will kill you." Yi Bing coldly looked at Gu Shi who fell to the floor with a loud thud. "Impertinent." He spat out.

"Gu Shi!" Di San cried and immediately ran to where Gu Shi is.

Shou Ji, Shi Jiu, and even Jin Wu froze where they stood. This is the first time that they saw Yi Bing this mad. He even hit Gu Shi! Gu Shi also knows how mad Yi Bing is, thus he didn't say anything. They looked at each other with fear in their eyes. They are all alarmed with the matter of Deserters but they are afraid to block Yi Bing. Or else, it would be them who will be kicked.

Although the kick looked casual, yet they can see how powerful it is just by looking at the hollowed wall.

"Yi Bing." A voice called in the midst of silence.

Everyone turned and saw Shen Sheng. They didn't dare breathe and could only lower their heads.

Shen Sheng turned and looked at Gu Shi despite calling Yi Bing's name. Then, he sighed. "Your temper is getting worse." He said as he turned back to Yi Bing. "Go now." He told him.

Yi Bing didn't even bother to reply and left as soon as Shen Sheng's voice fell. Everyone immediately sighed in relief when the low pressure disappeared. "Shen Taizi." They greeted and bowed.

Shen Sheng nodded at them and waved his handing, indicating for them to be at ease. Then, he turned to Gu Shi. "Gu Shi. I already told you to not be hasty." he said as he walked towards where Gu Shi is.

Gu Shi coughed and Di San is extremely worried about him. "The… Deserters…" Gu Shi spoke as he stood with the help of Di San.

"Yi Bing knows more than you know. That is why he is more in a hurry than you." Shen Sheng told him.

Gu Shi closed his eyes. "It was my mistake." He said and sighed.

Di San bit his lip.

Shen Sheng shook his head, then turned to the three. His gaze fell on Jin Wu. "Jin Wu. You should also be in a hurry to go to the mortal world, right?" he said and smiled.

Jin Wu's expression is heavy. Now that he heard about the Deserters, he feels worried about Mo Shi. "Yes, Shen Taizi." He answered and bowed.

"Then, you go, too." Shen Sheng waved his hand.

Jin Wu's figure immediately vanished. Shou Ji and Shi Jiu who are left knows that Jin Wu is going to the mortal world because of his apprentice, which is the same reason with Yi Bing who are leaving to go to Huo Ling.

They know how dangerous the Deserters is. Deserters are grim reapers that have committed a crime and escaped the Afterlife Department and until now are still being sough by the Afterlife Department. So, they didn't say anything about Yi Bing and Jin Wu, who are core figures of the Afterlife Department, leaving to go to the mortal world to go to their apprentices since Huo Ling and Mo Shi are definitely in danger since Li Fengxin's case is actually related to the Deserters!

"Shou Ji. Shi Jiu." Shen Sheng called and turned.

Shou Ji and Shi Jiu immediately bowed. "Shen Taizi." They answered. "This matter… it was our negligence." They said, admitting their mistakes.

Shen Sheng looked at them before he shook his head. "Even gods are not omnipotent. So how would you foresee this matter?" he said.

Shou Ji and Shi Jiu didn't speak. They know that Shen Sheng is bias to them so he isn't blaming them. Of course, Shou Ji and Shi Jiu won't use this to feel arrogant. They are responsible people, so they would be more careful next time and work harder with their work.

"Ai." Shen Sheng sighed when he saw their expressions. How can he not know what are they thinking? These workaholic grim reapers who not know how to have fun! He thought and shook his head. "Let's go to the City of the Dead. It just happens that most of the grim reapers were already there, too." he said and smiled. "Yi Bing really is thoughtful to send them here." He said and chuckled. Without waiting for them to speak, he waved his hand.

Then, the entire Afterlife Department was vacated. The next second, their figures appeared in the City of the Dead. The grim reapers were shocked, but they immediately cleared the space for Shen Sheng, Gu Shi, Di San, Shou Ji and Shi Jiu. Not to mention Shen Sheng, Gu Shi, Di San, Shou Ji and Shi Jiu are the higher-ups of the Afterlife Department, especially Gu Shi and Di San who are the director and vice director!

"Di San." Shen Sheng called.

"Yes?" Di San answered.

"Go find Ruan Yu and have him treat Gu Shi." Shen Sheng said.

Di San fell silent. How can Shen Sheng not know that Ruan Yu is here? He thought and closed his eyes. "Yes, Shen Taizi." He answered and immediately left while helping Gu Shi up.

Shen Sheng sighed as he watched them leave. "Shou Ji. Shi Jiu." He called. "Find Pei Guang and have him gather all the grim reapers present in the City of the Dead." He said, then paused. "Oh. Also call these two…" he said and told them two names.

Shou Ji and Shi Jiu were surprised.

Shen Sheng smiled as he looked at them. "Just call them. I am afraid that an accident will happen in the future." He said.

"Yes!" Shou Ji and Shi Jiu immediately answered and bowed before they left, leaving Shen Sheng surrounded by the grim reapers.

"Shen Taizi." A voice called.

Shen Sheng turned and smiled when he saw Pei Guang. "Boss Pei." He called. "Did you prepare my drink?" he asked.

"Of course!" Pei Guang answered and grinned.

Shen Sheng is pleased. Then, he followed Pei Guang. Meanwhile, the grim reapers who were left withdrew their gazes on Shen Sheng and whispered, talking about Gu Shi's injury. The forum instantly exploded when they saw the post of a picture of Gu Shi being assisted by Di San. They all came from the Afterlife Department earlier and saw that Gu Shi blocked Yi Bing from leaving.. So, they can guess that it was Yi Bing who injured Gu Shi.
