Chapter 165: Chapter 165 - Repaying Favor_1
The night was cold as water, an icy breeze seeping in through the gaps in the windows.
Ye You’s claw lightly lifted, a ray of white light emanated from his hand, transforming into a vague fog, which then morphed into the figure of Lin Ying.
"Sister Ying," Qin Sisi greeted softly.
Lin Ying nodded in acknowledgent, smiling as she said, "Sisi, thanks to you, we were able to resolve things quite nicely."
Qin Sisi retorted, "Don’t be so formal, Sister Ying, Shan Shan is my good friend, I was only doing what any friend would."
With a benevolent deanor, Lin Ying glanced at Qin Sisi, "Sisi, now that everything is settled, I should take my leave. Is there anything I can assist you with before I go?"
Qin Sisi’s expression shifted slightly after a mont’s hesitation, she finally said, "Sister Ying, you know now that I’m not an ordinary person. Actually, I’ve been collecting Soul Power this whole ti."
"Soul Power?" Lin Ying gazed at Qin Sisi in surprise.
Qin Sisi looked troubled. She had sincere intentions to help Lin Shan and Lin Ying. Now revealing that she’s collecting Soul Power, she was afraid that Lin Ying would misconstrue her intentions.
Being few years older than Qin Sisi, Lin Ying could infer from her conflicted expressions, and soothingly replied, "Sisi, you and Shan Shan have long been friends. I believe in your sincerity to help us."
A surge of warm emotion washed over Qin Sisi, she murmured, "Sister Ying, my assistance to you guys has nothing to do with Soul Power. If you’re willing to help , I’ll be glad, but if you’re not, I won’t insist."
Lin Ying shook her head with a smile, "Even a drop of kindness deserves to be repaid in a gushing spring. Even though I’m not well-read, I understand the principle of gratitude."
Satisfied by Lin Ying’s words, Qin Sisi excitedly thanked, "Thank you, Sister Ying."
Lin Ying repressed her smile with a sigh, continuing, "I guess it doesn’t really matter what happens to , what I can’t help but worry about is Shan Shan. How is she going to fare in the future, and whether she’ll find soone who truly cares for her."
Qin Sisi fell into silence. As Lin Shan’s friend, she naturally hoped that Shan Shan could find her own happiness.
After thinking for a while, Qin Sisi reassured Lin Ying, "Sister Ying, don’t worry. I’ll think of a solution."
Lin Ying asked in surprise, "You have a solution?"
Without promising anything, Qin Sisi just murmured, "I’ll try. Sister Ying, do you rember Shan Shan’s birth details?"
Lin Ying confird confidently, "Of course, a sister is just like a mother. I would definitely rember all things that I know about her."
"That’s great."
Having received an affirmative answer from Lin Ying, Qin Sisi walked up to Ye You, looking into his eyes as she asked, "I would like to ask Lan Di about Shan Shan’s marital fate, is that okay?"
Given that Lan Di could find out about every soul’s past and present lives, he should be able to find out about Shan Shan’s marital fate. However, it would consu so of Ye You’s spiritual power.
Ye You agreed readily, "Of course, go fetch the yellow paper."
With a radiant smile, Qin Sisi expressed her gratitude, "Xiao Hei, thank you."
Ye You laughed softly, "What are you thanking
for? I am doing this for myself, too."
Qin Sisi took out a bundle of yellow paper from the cupboard, placed it in front of Ye You, who gently lifted his claw, infusing a wisp of Spiritual Power into the paper.
Qin Sisi then took the paper, which was now infused with Spiritual Power, to the northwest corner of the room; she used Fire Magic to ignite it. The yellowish-blue fla burned quietly, quickly reducing the bundle of yellow paper to ash.
Seeing Qin Sisi casting the Fire Magic, Lin Ying beca even more convinced that Qin Sisi was extraordinary, perhaps she really could assist Lin Shan, and this filled her with joy.
Soon, there was a sudden noise, and Lan Di, in his blue outfit, sprang up from beneath the surface of the earth.
Like the previous tis, with his blue clothing, blue shoes, blue hair, and blue skin, a casual smile on his face.
"Hi, beautiful Sisi."
Lan Di greeted enthusiastically. However, perhaps due to a previous warning from Ye You, he refrained from his usual flirting lines.
Observing Lan Di’s less frivolous attitude this ti, Qin Sisi greeted back with a smile, "Hi, I have a small favor to ask of you."
Lan Di leaned with his arms folded across his chest, assuming his mischievous deanor, said nonchalantly, "I knew it. What’s it this ti? Want to check out the sa soul again?"
Qin Sisi took Lin Shan’s birth details, Lin Ying had provided, wrote them on a piece of paper, and handed it to Lan Di, saying, "This person is my friend. I want to know about her marital fate in this lifeti."
Lan Di took the paper, glanced at it, scoffed, and said, "Easy peasy. Wait for the good news."
Qin Sisi cheerfully responded, "Thank you so much."
Lan Di gestured an "OK" sign to Qin Sisi, slapped his chest and added, "Leave it to ."
"ow!"
Suddenly, Ye You, on the sofa, let out a low grumble, seemingly a warning.
"Cough cough..." Lan Di, caught off guard, coughed twice and said to Qin Sisi, "Well, if there’s nothing else, I am leaving."
"Okay." Qin Sisi nodded, unable to suppress a giggle.
Lan Di returned to the corner he had appeared from. Now, the ash from the burned yellow paper was gone, since he had absorbed it.
Lan Di was preparing to go back, suddenly there was a noise from where he had co out, another blue figure jumped out.
Lan Di was startled, as he was not expecting this.
Qin Sisi stood in surprise, but quickly realized that it would probably be...
As soon as the figure ca into clear view and halted, indeed it was that girl in pale blue dress who always followed Lan Di around, Pei Pei.
"Oh, dear!" Lan Di groaned, covering his forehead, "Can’t you stop tailing ?"
"No." Pei Pei decisively responded, puckering her lips in a playful way.
"Boring." Lan Di grumbled in irritation, did not bother to acknowledge Pei Pei anymore, and directly jumped back through the opening in the ground where he ca from.
Seeing Lan Di leaving, Pei Pei also hurriedly prepared to follow but she did not forget to smile at Qin Sisi before she left as a greeting.
Having bid farewell to both the Ghost Immortal Lan Di and his young follower, Qin Sisi heaved a sigh of relief. She turned around and reassured Lin Ying, "Sister Ying, don’t worry, now that he has agreed, we should get news soon."
Lin Ying replied gratefully, "Sisi, I really don’t know how I should thank you."
Qin Sisi shook her head, "Sister Ying, I’ve said it before, I don’t need any kind of reward."
Lin Ying too shook her head, resolutely saying, "No, you’ve done so much, you deserve a reward. Once we know more about Shan Shan’s situation, I will definitely contribute my Soul Power to you."
Seeing Lin Ying’s sincere eyes, Qin Sisi did not refuse, she also thanked gratefully, "In that case, thank you, Sister Ying."
