The Magic Cat Finally Gets Serious!

"Yes, it's you. White hair, golden eyes, a reserved demeanor, and five feet and four inches tall. My puppet body wouldn't mistake you."

The young girl said.

Bai Sheng was a little confused. The Ten Lords? This was called the Ten Lords Bureau, so the Ten Lords should be the highest authority. But why would they personally issue a decree for him, who had just arrived at the Xianzhou, to become an Underworld Emissary directly?

"Um, do you know why?"

Bai Sheng asked.

The young girl shook her head.

"I don't know. The Ten Lords always just issue decrees, and we follow them. Also, the Ten Lords said this matter is not compulsory. If you have no interest in this, you can refuse."

Bai Sheng thought about it. Earlier, little Huohuo had mentioned that he worked at the Ten Lords Bureau, and it seemed to be a rather high position.

At this, Bai Sheng asked:

"Do you know Huohuo?"

"Huohuo is a Judge at the Ten Lords Bureau. Although she's only an intern, she'll be made permanent in due time. Do you know her?"

"Yes, she's a friend of mine."

"Please wait. The Ten Lords have issued a new decree. Please accompany me to the Ten Lords Bureau first. I will host you well."

After the young girl finished speaking, she turned and left quickly with a blank expression.

Bai Sheng stood in place, a little confused. He turned to look around. The two Cloud Knights who had escorted him had already run off. He didn't know the way either. The Ten Lords Bureau was where criminals were imprisoned and judged. Bai Sheng was afraid he might accidentally wander into a cell.

"You are Bai Sheng?"

His shoulder was poked, and then a clear, cold female voice sounded.

Bai Sheng turned to look. It was a young girl with light gray hair and very dark circles under her eyes, similar to Huohuo. She was holding a very large brush, and had two feather ornaments on her head.

Judging by her attire, she should be from the Ten Lords Bureau, just like the girl who had just left.

"It's me. Um, who are you?"

"Just call me Hanya. I still didn't get to meet my sister."

Hanya's cold face showed a hint of regret when she said the word "sister."

"The sister you're talking about, is she the one with short brown hair, red eyes, and bells hanging from her waist with a chain?"

"Yes! That's my sister. You can call her Xueyi. Given my sister's personality, she hardly ever reveals her name unless someone actively asks."

Hanya's eyes seemed to be filled with light whenever she talked about Xueyi.

"Then, how about you, Hanya, help me find the way?"

Bai Sheng said. Although there was no one around, standing here indefinitely wasn't very appropriate.

"Sorry, let's go."

The topic of "sister" ended, and Hanya returned to her previous cold demeanor.

Before long, Bai Sheng was sitting in the reception hall of the Ten Lords Bureau, looking at his phone.

Hanya still had unfinished work and left first. Xueyi had just returned, and unfortunately, the two sisters had missed each other again.

Xueyi came before Bai Sheng and said to him:

"The Ten Lords have decreed that if you agree to take the position, you may disregard necessary work. The Ten Lords Bureau will not inquire about any of your activities."

"Is there a salary?"

"Top tier."

"Deal! Do you need to do a strength test or something? I just heard that Underworld Emissaries have to fight."

Bai Sheng asked. He had a good rapport with people and had chatted with two administrative staff members there earlier. He had a general understanding of what an Underworld Emissary was. They were essentially the enforcers and employees under the Judges. When Xueyi said he didn't have to work, Bai Sheng was genuinely tempted.

"No test is needed. The fact that you can surpass the General's chief disciple is already a symbol of your strength. If you are certain, then I will reply to the Ten Lords."

"Certain, certain! I just asked my master, and he agreed."

Bai Sheng said. He hadn't expected Jing Yuan to agree so quickly. He had only sent the message, and Jing Yuan had replied the next second, even expressing his support.

However, on the other side, Jing Yuan was wearing a wry smile.

He was just about to slack off, he had even taken out his divination tool, when suddenly the Ten Lords jointly initiated a communication.

"Young Jing Yuan, we'll take that Bai Sheng."

A voice, ancient but full of power, rang out.

"Oh? The Ten Lords seniors are so interested in this disciple of Jing Yuan?"

"You jest. We merely want him to hold a nominal position at the Ten Lords Bureau. Your disciple is still your disciple. Old Fifth has a temper, don't worry, we won't snatch him from you."

A female voice spoke through the holographic projection.

"This, perhaps, is not appropriate. Although Bai Sheng is my disciple, compared to my opinion, I believe that child's own choice is the most important."

Jing Yuan said. He had just been thinking of asking Bai Sheng how he felt about the Ten Lords Bureau, and now, those ten old fellows from the distant Xulou Xianzhou had smelled the scent and come over.

Why are people associated with the Stellaron Hunters so strange?

Jing Yuan thought this to himself.

Meanwhile, after Xueyi had given Bai Sheng some instructions, she bid him farewell and went to work.

The reception hall was empty. Bai Sheng was curious why he was being paid attention to as soon as he arrived at the Ten Lords Bureau. If he didn't understand something, it was always best to ask the boss, Acheron!

The magic cat knows everything!

A call was placed to Silver Wolf's phone.

"Ring... ring... Hello, Bai Sheng? What's up?"

"Has my script been updated? Can you find Acheron for me?"

"Your script? It's not time for your appearance yet. I'm playing a game. Find Kafka. She's reading right now. Just call her directly. My Aetherium Spirit is trying to escape, bye-bye."

Silver Wolf hung up the phone. It seemed he had interrupted her game.

He found Kafka again in their family chat and made an interstellar call.

"Oh, Bai Sheng? What's wrong? You remembered to call us. Hmm? Acheron? He's in his room. What do you want to ask? I can relay the message for you."

"About the Ten Lords Bureau here on the Luofu..."

"What? The Ten Lords Bureau... I know about that. Let me tell you. Acheron gave those ten old guys some reasons they couldn't refuse to let you join the Ten Lords Bureau. Do you want to see the specific arrangements? I can help you organize them."

"No, no, it's fine. Knowing it was Boss Acheron is enough. It wouldn't be fun if everything was spoiled. Is there anything you want me to bring back as a specialty? I can come visit you in a while."

"If you can, please keep an eye on the Great Coat Exhibition being held on the Luofu in a month. I have to look after the child and can't get away."

"Huh? Kafka, you have a child?"

"It's just a metaphor. A new member has joined. You'll meet her when the script begins, but if you come back, you can meet her early."

"Okay, sounds good. Hanging up now."

"Mhm, I hope you have a happy life on the Luofu."

"Beep... beep... beep..."

Bai Sheng put away his phone and looked up to see a familiar figure. Short, with matcha-green hair, a little hat, yin-yang fish hair ornaments, and drooping ears. Who else could it be but Huohuo?

"Huohuo!"

Bai Sheng greeted her.

Huohuo whipped her head around and saw Bai Sheng.

"Huh? Ah Sheng? Why are you still here?"
