Chapter 581: Chapter 581: Public Servant Managing Archives_1

Upon hearing this shout, both Qin Sisi and Ye You were startled. Their operation tonight was supposed to be a secret known only to Lan Di, but the caller was not him.

Qin Sisi had the feeling that she had heard this voice sowhere before, but she could not rember where.

The pair exchanged glances and looked towards where the two figures were rushing towards them at a fast pace.

Ye You hesitated for a mont, but ultimately withdrew his ready-to-cast magic skill claws.

Who’s coming? What’s their purpose? It would be smarter to find out before making a decision.

When the two figures finally flew close enough to reveal their identities, Qin Sisi was taken aback. What were these two people doing together?

The figures turned out to be Lan Di, an old friend of Ye You and herself, and a genteel man in a suit who had investigated the whereabouts of Qing ng in their house with the Bull and Horseface.

Both Ye You and the man in the suit were panting heavily, their sprint obviously having taken a toll on them.

Qin Sisi turned to Lan Di first and asked, "Lan Di, why are you here?"

Breathing heavily, Lan Di pointed to the man in the suit and replied, "He asked

to bring him here."

After responding to Qin Sisi, Lan Di patted the man in the suit on the shoulder and said, "I showed you the way. Now, tell them what you need to say."

Qin Sisi’s gaze shifted to the man in the suit. Apparently, he was the one in control of the situation. The voice that had shouted "spare his life" was indeed this man’s.

His persistent genteel deanor made it hard to identify whether he was friend or foe, which put Qin Sisi on her guard.

Ye You gave the man in the suit a deep, inquiring look, then turned his gaze to Lan Di for answers.

Lan Di seed to rember sothing and quickly spoke up, "Let

introduce you. This is Qi Jiaming, an employee who manages the files in the Underworld. He’s a decent person."

Qin Sisi and Ye You exchanged glances and asked the man in the suit calmly, "Mr Qi, did you specifically co to stop our revenge?"

Qi Jiaming shook his head. Even though he held a decent position, his magical powers weren’t that impressive. He was far inferior to Lan Di, and the sprint had left him almost breathless, requiring a few minutes of rest to recover.

After a mont of pause, Qi Jiaming said, "Miss Qin, killing a ghost immortal is a big deal. If he truly dies, the Underworld will surely investigate. I’m afraid you and your spirit pet will end up in trouble."

Qin Sisi furrowed her brows and asked, "So, we should let go of his intentional trouble-making?"

Qi Jiaming responded in a mild tone, "He may be an annoyance, but ultimately he hasn’t caused any substantial harm to Miss Qin, right? So, I would ask you to be magnaminous."

Lan Di protested indignantly, "What do you an no harm? He hurt , alright? Both Qing ng and Bai Lian left because of this."

Qi Jiaming calmly countered, "But according to you, Qing ng and Bai Lian are now living the life of their dreams. ’Every cloud has a silver lining,’ right?"

Qi Jiaming, outwardly courteous but astute with words, left Lan Di speechless.

After hearing Qi Jiaming’s words and thinking about it carefully, Qin Sisi seed to agree that the ssenger of Death hadn’t really hard her. Should she really let him go?

She looked at Ye You enquiringly.

Ye You gave a low "ow."

Qin Sisi turned to Qi Jiaming and continued, "But I’ve seriously injured him this ti. If I let him go now, I’m afraid he might not let us go later."

Qi Jiaming smiled slightly and said, "I heard that Miss Qin’s spirit pet has powerful magic skills. You can erase his mory. As long as his soul isn’t annihilated, the Underworld won’t cause any trouble. This will be good for you guys too."

After thinking about it for a bit, Qin Sisi asked with doubt, "From your words, it seems like you are taking our side. But I don’t understand why. Could Mr. Qi explain?"

Qi Jiaming’s smile disappeared, after a few minutes of silence he replied, "The last ti I visited your house and saw you and your black cat, I felt that you two were extraordinary. Moreover, the mysterious disappearance of Qing ng in your house aroused my curiosity."

"So, I specifically sought out Lan Di. After a heart-to-heart conversation, Lan Di finally dropped his guard and told

more about your situation."

"I happen to need your help with sothing, so I don’t want anything to happen to you."

"At the sa ti, as a public servant in the Underworld, I also hope that there can be good order in the Underworld. You see, if the ssenger of Death is killed, the Underworld will undoubtedly be sowhat chaotic."

"That’s why I specifically ca to stop you."

Qi Jiaming clearly explained the reasons for his visit. His sincere and earnest words left a good impression on Qin Sisi.

She thought for a mont, then said to Qi Jiaming, "Wait a second, let

think about it."

Qi Jiaming nodded in agreent.

Qin Sisi, holding Ye You, walked a few steps off to discuss their options quietly.

After thinking for a mont, Ye You weighed the pros and cons. Despite his powerful magic skills, he had been cursed and the Magic Source was damaged. It would indeed be unwise to provoke a powerful enemy at this ti.

Qin Sisi also advised him, "The ssenger of Death didn’t really harm us. Why don’t we just spare him?"

Ye You nodded his head and responded in a deep voice. "Alright, but simply erasing his mory is too lenient."

A little while later, Qin Sisi, holding Ye You, walked back to confront Lan Di and the others. She looked at Qi Jiaming and said, "For the sake of Lan Di and you, let’s spare his life."

Qi Jiaming was visibly pleased and bowed in gratitude.

But before he could finish his words, Ye You raised his paw and shot a beam of white light at the ssenger of Death’s head. Monts later, specs of star-like lights were twirled into his paw along the white beam.

Qi Jiaming’s smile froze on his face, he looked utterly helpless.

Ye You gave him a cold look, said a few words to Lan Di, and asked him to pass the ssage to Qi Jiaming.

Lan Di could only relay to Qi Jiaming, "The black cat said, ’You were the one who said, as long as the soul is not destroyed, the Underworld won’t make a big fuss.’"

Qi Jiaming gave a bitter laugh, not knowing what to say. Although the soul was not destroyed, having part of his spirit yanked out, the ssenger of Death might struggle to carry out his previous duties, assuming he managed to retain his position in the Underworld at all.

However, Qin Sisi had indeed only promised to spare his life and made no ntion of not harming him.

Qi Jiaming helped the unconscious and critically injured ssenger of Death up and let him lean against him. He turned to Qin Sisi and said, "I’ll tell the Underworld that I found him here while I was on an errand. I won’t say anything else."

Qin Sisi nodded and said, "Thank you."

Qi chiming sighed, shook his head, said "Goodbye," and drifted off into the dark western sky with the ssenger of Death.
