When they were only a few hundred meters away from the Li family manor, Lord Death stopped and spoke to Li Xinyan and Li Muchen.
Then, he stretched and muttered to himself with a hint of melancholy:
"Today is a special day, and I'll have to get busy again."
Another day requiring overtime.
Working in the underworld is really tough!
