Chapter 35

"Regarding the butler, the monthly salary is 5,000, and you will need to work two extra days each month. On the third floor, including the original butler and the three new butlers, there will be a total of four butlers. The four of you will take turns working on weekends, each handling one Saturday and one Sunday."

The head of the personnel department, Yang Zhengyi, assigned tasks to the group.

After receiving their new work badges, everyone prepared to return to their respective positions, but Ye Xiao was stopped by Yang Zhengyi.

"Xiao Ye, wait a moment."

Ye Xiao stopped, and Sister Wang and the others left first.

Manager Yang smiled and said,

"Xiao Ye, last time your colleague next door was transferred, leaving you to manage two large areas alone. This time, with the new staff, I've assigned one to you to help reduce your workload."

Ye Xiao nodded.

"Thank you, Manager."

"Don't be so formal. You do the best work in our library. Your area is the cleanest, and the books are the best organized. Keep up the good work; I have high hopes for you."

Ye Xiao nodded again and then left the personnel department.

When he arrived at his area, he found a young man in jeans sitting somewhat nervously on a chair. The young man immediately stood up when he saw Ye Xiao.

"Y-You... Hello, Manager Ye, I... I'm Ning Yuheng, the new librarian. Please take care of me."

Ye Xiao lightly responded with a 'hmm.'

"Sit down, no need to be nervous."

"Oh, okay."

Ning Yuheng sat back down. His skin was very tender, even more so than many girls'.

Perhaps due to his shyness, his face was slightly flushed, making him look... well...

This guy is a bit of a fox, Ye Xiao glanced at him but didn't continue looking.

However, Ye Xiao's Tai Xuan Tian Gang had already scanned him from head to toe, 360 degrees.

This guy is actually a Fifth Rank martial artist.

Based on his bone age, he should be around eighteen years old.

To reach Fifth Rank, he is no ordinary person.

A genius!

A genius like this, instead of continuing to be cultivated in the academy or being sent to the front lines, actually comes to this library to be a small librarian.

Interesting.

Ye Xiao cleared his throat and said calmly,

"The job of a librarian is simple. You just need to clock in and out on time, organize the books, report any damaged books, and clean up before you leave in the afternoon. At other times, you can read books or do your own things.

However, don't make any noise; the library requires silence."

"Understood!"

"You're new today, so first, take an inventory of the books and their locations. Get familiar with them so that you know where to find them when someone borrows a book."

"Understood!"

Ning Yuheng responded and immediately started taking inventory of the books.

Ye Xiao continued to sit and read.

Originally, he managed only two areas.

His own and the area of the colleague who had resigned next door.

Now, as a butler, Ye Xiao can manage four areas, two more than before.

He can read more books.

This made Ye Xiao feel much more comfortable than a raise.

There are still many types of cultivation techniques in the Golden Book that are incomplete.

Body techniques, body strengthening methods, fist techniques, palm techniques, forging techniques, star arrays, alchemy... the list goes on and on.

He still has a lot to learn and cultivate.

After reading for a few minutes, Ye Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

Something has infiltrated.

It's a spirit body, similar to the evil ghost spirit body he had previously slain, both being the souls of the dead.

However, the aura of this spirit body is a bit off.

It's similar to the aura of a star beast.

A tiger spirit body?

If it enters as a spirit body, it's not easy for anyone other than a grandmaster or an exorcist who has cultivated mental techniques to detect its presence.

Even a high-level exorcist who has cultivated mental techniques might not easily detect this tiger spirit body if their cultivation is not deep enough.

Unfortunately, it can escape others' detection, but not Ye Xiao's.

After the mental techniques were fused into the Tai Xuan Tian Gang, Ye Xiao can perceive both spiritual energy and mental power!

And with super-strong perception!

At the same level or even higher, few can match his perception.

To put it bluntly, if someone inserts something where they shouldn't, he doesn't need to see it to know the model, shape, and vibration frequency.

From 800 meters away, he can know everything clearly!

But Ye Xiao remained silent and continued to read.

He wanted to see what this tiger spirit body was up to in the library.

...

Soon, an invisible and intangible spirit body slowly drifted into the third-floor window of the library.

It had its hands behind its back, and the ghostly aura around it formed a black robe, looking sinister and mysterious.

"This is the Jianghai City library? The defensive power is nothing. In my presence, it's completely useless, not even worth mentioning!"

It floated into the library, hovering in mid-air, scanning the crowd. In the ghostly aura, two emerald green flames flickered.

Those were its eyes.

"The map left by King El should be on the top floor of the Jianghai City library.

The top floor is equipped with a star array specifically targeting spirit bodies. To get the map, I need to possess a human body.

Whose body should I possess?"

The emerald green flames flickered over the people, first landing on Ye Xiao.

"This guy... is a butler. But... his cultivation is terrible, only Second Rank. With this cultivation, he can't even pass through the electromagnetic gravity barrier on the top floor.

Waste of space!"

Shaking his head, he moved on to the next target.

"Third Rank, but already old, with lost qi and blood, and osteoporosis. Not up to the task."

...

"Third Rank, with a venereal disease. Hmph, so dirty! Possessing this woman would taint my soul."

...

"Hmm... This guy is not bad! At such a young age, he's already Fifth Rank. Decided, it's you!"

The emerald green flames flickered, and the tiger spirit body moved toward Ning Yuheng's body, preparing to possess it.

Ning Yuheng, who was taking inventory of the books, suddenly trembled, his entire body's hair standing on end.

He couldn't see the spirit body, but the innate sixth sense of a living being, sensing the approach of death, made his body tremble instinctively.

However!

Just as his despair reached its peak, the feeling of death instantly vanished!

After a while, he regained his senses and realized that his clothes were drenched in sweat.

He almost wet his pants.

He looked around, and Ye Xiao was still reading, and there was nothing unusual around.
