Chapter 547: Let’s Die Together
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The malicious ghosts were filial to their parents, took care of their brothers, doted on their juniors, and even helped the old grandma when they crossed the road. When they were alive, they were kind and optimistic. They would try their best to help anyone they could, not minding at all. However, in the end, they were hacked to death by the person closest to them. They saw their younger brother go crazy and chop them up bit by bit. They personally saw their children die amidst their despairing cries, so they were in despair. The moment they died, they erupted with great resentment. The blood on their bodies dyed their clothes red, and they became bloody-robed malicious ghosts. After turning into malicious ghosts, they gathered around their crazy younger brother. He could see them, but he was not afraid of them, and they could not take his life…
Amelia frowned when she heard this. “So you can hurt others? Take their lives? Because you died pitifully, others have to give you everything, including their lives?”
As Amelia questioned, the white haired old man and an old lady with a bun had tears streaming down their faces. Two streams of blood flowed down their faces, making them look even more terrifying. “That’s right. Dying pitifully isn’t an excuse to take lives. But did the King of Hell give us a way out for being good people, kind people?”
Amelia was stunned by this question.
The old lady continued, “Everyone in the world says that the King of Hell is in charge of life and death and knows right from wrong. It’s the fairest. They even said that if the King of Hell wants you to die at midnight, ou won’t stay until the fifth watch. But what did we do wrong? Why does the King of Hell insist on our lives? Since the King of Hell is so unfair, let’s die together!”
Amelia was silent. These words hit her heart, especially the words ‘King of Hell’, which made her feel even more suffocated.
Elmer never expected that the malicious ghosts that he thought were just an ordinary family were hiding an important test for Amelia! That’s right, this family was indeed very pitiful. When they were alive, they were kind and helpful. The old people were loving to the younger generation, and the younger generation respected the old people and worked hard. The younger ones were sensible, polite, obedient, and cute, but they died miserably. The most heartbreaking thing was that the one who killed them was their closest relative.
Seeing Amelia’s silence, Elmer lowered his voice. “Mia…”
Amelia turned to look at Elmer. Although her eyes were clear, there was a hint of confusion. “Master, why?”
All Elmer could say was, “Life and death are predestined…” But those words were too pale. Amelia pressed, “Then who prescribed their lives?”
Elmer opened his mouth. Of course, it was the King of Hell. Due to the causes in their previous lives and the consequences in the future, although this family was reincarnated into good people in this life, they must have done something bad in their previous lives to make them pay for it in this life. In their previous lives, after they died, the King of Hell would determine whether they were good or evil and decide what kind of person they were reincarnated into in this life.
“The karma of their previous lives is predestined. This is the outcome of their lives.” Elmer was also very helpless. Therefore, everyone who worked in Hell had to cut ties with each other because whether it was sympathy, hatred, love, or family, it would affect their judgment.
Amelia did not understand this and only asked according to the simplest idea. “The previous life was in the previous life, and this life is in this life. Why should someone bear the mistakes of the previous life in this life?”
Elmer patiently counseled, “Otherwise, how can they pay the price? Stop them from reincarnating? Actually, before making a judgment, they have a choice. Either they don’t reincarnate and stay in the ghost world to cultivate enough ghost credit. When they have enough ghost credit, they can start over in their next life. If they choose to reincarnate directly, they have to repay the sins of their previous life.” Therefore, instead of saying that the King of Hell had decided their fate, it was better to say that they had chosen their own fate.
Elmer continued, “After they died, they weren’t willing to go to the ghost world to cultivate ghost credits. Instead, they chose to reincarnate as humans. In their previous lives, they killed many people. Although they didn’t make any mistakes in this life and lost their lives innocently, they turned into malicious ghosts after losing their lives and took many lives. Do you want to watch helplessly? They even wanted to hurt William Lucas Emma Harper and the others…
Elmer tried very hard to find a reason that Amelia could understand. If they didn’t arrest them because they sympathized with these ghosts, then someone else would be harmed in the future. Someone else would be innocent.
Amelia was stunned. “Master, I’m just asking why. It’s not that I won’t catch them…” She just didn’t understand why this was happening.. Why did good people not have good lives while bad people lived a long life?
