[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.

Fan Wujiu: ....

Xie Bian: Did I insult your mother when I was alive, or something?

[BL] I Became a General in Hell after Dying

"Being young can be frightening," Yao Yan smiled at Fu Shulin, his roguish features softening. "I'm sure you know that. A child is scared, always, and looks up to adults for guidance. We instill in every child this: the respect for their elders, to trust in those that have been alive longer than them."


Fu Shulin nodded along; it had always been so for him, and he couldn't say that he had ever been led astray. His parents had done the best for him, with what little they had, An Mu had cared for him selflessly, and with enduring patience, Yao Yan was now protecting him from the consequences of the attack on the inn.


He never had any reason to mistrust the adults in his life, and yet Yao Yan's smile dropped, his expression darkened.
