Chapter 686: Chapter 686 Love and Deception _1
Seeing the ghost finally reveal itself, Ye You quietly put away the silver sphere and leaped onto Qin Sisi’s shoulder.
Qin Sisi stood still, holding her breath, and slowly walked towards the man who was crying with his head down.
"Hello sir, can we talk?" A soft and clear voice echoed behind him. The man stopped crying and turned his head slowly after a long silence.
At a glance, Qin Sisi noticed that the man had average looks, rather ordinary. However, his face was flushed red, his eye sockets were a burning crimson, and bloodshot veins crisscrossed his eyes.
Qin Sisi inferred that it should be due to excessive drinking and crying.
The man stared at the young woman in front of him in shock and hoarsely asked, "Who are you?"
Qin Sisi smiled slightly and calmly replied, "I can see you, that makes
a mage."
"A mage?" The man’s expression changed, and he moved backwards slightly, nervously saying, "What are you doing here? I’m just a pitiful lost soul. I haven’t done anything wrong, and I am just staying at my own house, not bothering anyone."
Qin Sisi gently shook her head and corrected him, "This is not your ho anymore, this villa has been sold. The new owner had
co here to help him clean up so unclean things here."
She bluntly told the man the current situation, so he could quickly realize his predicant.
"Sold?" The man seed very surprised, but quickly regained his composure, and murmured, "Yes, with the one gone, what’s the use of keeping an empty house? It’s just more painful. They can have a good life elsewhere."
Seeing that the man remained prone on the ground, Qin Sisi had to squat down, speaking to the man in a gentle voice, "So, you cannot stay here anymore. I would like to ask you to consider giving
your Soul Power. In exchange, I can help you fulfill the unfulfilled wish of your past life."
The man’s recently calm expression abruptly changed, he stamred incredulously, "So...Soul Power? But... but if I gave you the Soul Power, wouldn’t I dissipate?"
Qin Sisi was about to explain when the man’s form suddenly drifted up and swiftly moved towards the basent entrance.
"Trying to run?" Ye You’s eyes flashed, and he shot a blue light from his claw. The blue light ford a faint wall of light, blocking the basent entrance.
The man arrived at the light wall expecting to pass through it using his ghostly form, only to be stopped by the blue light wall.
He tried several more tis but still couldn’t pass through. Finally, he had to admit that he couldn’t escape and gave up trying to break the wall of blue light.
Qin Sisi gave a slight flick of her wrist, mobilizing the Magic Power within her. A fireball raging with flas was launched toward the man.
However, Qin Sisi had no intention of hurting him, so the fireball passed by the man’s shoulder and hit the wall behind him, imdiately burning a large black mark on the beige wallpaper.
The man was shocked, quickly turning around and looking at Qin Sisi in panic.
Qin Sisi coldly stated, "My flas are infused with Spiritual Power; if you dare to run again, I will make sure your soul dissipates instantly."
The man turned as pale as a corpse, crying out in despair, "Whether I resist or not, the outco’s the sa. Do what you wish!"
Qin Sisi sighed and softened her tone, saying, "I didn’t finish speaking. If you give
your Soul Power, your soul will not dissipate. It will disperse in different places, and after one thousand years, it will reunite gradually. Then, you will be able to reincarnate."
"Is that true?" The man breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qin Sisi suspiciously.
Qin Sisi confird with certainty, "Absolutely."
The man stared into Qin Sisi’s eyes, which were clear and unflinching, indicating her words rang true.
His anxiety and fear significantly subsided, and he slowly sat down leaning against the wall. He rested the back of his head against the hard wall, with a look of utter dejection.
After a brief pause, Qin Sisi continued to speak. "I heard you were deceived. I can help you get revenge."
According to Mr. Zhao, the original owner of this villa died directly because of being swindled out of his collection of paintings. If that’s true, he must harbor deep resentnt against the person who scamd him.
"Revenge?" The man repeated the word in a daze, a bitter smile appearing on his face. It was as if he was hearing sothing ludicrous, or recalling a past misery.
Seeing the man appeared reluctant to seek revenge, Qin Sisi quickly added, "Of course, you can make other requests as long as I can fulfill them."
As if he hadn’t heard Qin Sisi’s words, the man gave a bitter smile for a while, and suddenly asked an unexpected question: "Do you believe, in this world, there exists pure and untainted love?"
Qin Sisi was stunned for a mont, then after a pause, she replied, "I believe there is."
The man raised his eyes to look at Qin Sisi, pressing assertively, "Then would you sleep with a man you don’t like for money? Would you marry a man you don’t love for money?"
Ye You was enraged, his claw raised, intending to shoot a bolt of Magic Light to the man’s head.
Dare to utter obscenities against his woman! What was intolerable was exactly this!
Seeing Ye You raising his claw, Qin Sisi swiftly pushed him, altering the direction of the Magic Light, which hit the wall just beside the man’s head.
A loud "boom" echoed as a fist-sized hole was punched into the wall.
The man was frightened to the point of trembling. He saw that it was not Qin Sisi who attacked him, but the black cat standing on her shoulder.
If a cat could have such power, then his owner must be even more terrifying.
"Xiao Hei, calm down. We must capture this ghost." Qin Sisi urgently persuaded Ye You, her eyes full of helplessness.
Ye You’s breathing was hurried and heavy. His raised claw finally lowered at Qin Sisi’s pleading look. The white, sharp claw reflected a bit of silver light under the lamp, bright and cold.
Qin Sisi bit her lip and furrowed her brows, coldly staring back at the trembling man, she firmly stated, "I can answer your question, I would not."
The man’s expression shifted as if he wanted to say sothing. However, after a fearful glance at Ye You, he swallowed his words.
Observing his expression, Qin Sisi continued to speak coldly, "Would you like to know why? There are many ways to make money; why should I sell myself? Just because you were deceived by one woman, do you presu all won are the sa?"
"How did you know?" The man looked at Qin Sisi in astonishnt, his mouth agape for a long ti.
He hadn’t ntioned being cheated by a woman, how could this stranger have guessed it?
