Chapter 87

But if Song Zhou really transferred along with him, then his mission this time would not be that easy. Even when he first came to do the mission, he found that he couldn’t remember the reason for his punishment.

When Xi Ning thought about it, everything seemed weird, but aside from that, Xi Ning did hope that Song Zhou was able to transfer with him.

If that was possible, was it that he could also be with Song Zhou in the next few worlds……?

At the time being, he had to wait for the system to reply for the confirmation. The more Xi Ning thought about it, the more irritable and anxious he became. He also started to have a headache for some reason, and the places on either side of his forehead suddenly pulsated.

Xi Ning frowned, he rubbed it with his hand and laid down for a while.

Xi Ning felt his headache relieved a bit as time passed, and fell asleep without realizing until he heard someone knocking on the door.

Xi Ning didn’t want to move. He turned sideways and pinched his eyebrows with his hand. “Come in.”

The tree spirit walked in with several well-dressed spirits and knelt in a row in front of Xi Ning. “Your Royal Highness, I have brought all of them here. Do I need to make arrangements for them to serve you in the palace? Or arrange for them to go elsewhere?”

Xi Ning sat up. These little spirits were all dirty before, and he didn’t pay much attention to them. Now that they had cleaned up, they all looked pretty.

Two of them must have been sisters, since they looked very similar. Xi Ning propped his head up with his hand and asked, “What are your names?”

The spirits answered one after another, and also mentioned what kind of race they were. Xi Ning started to have a headache again, as if something was going to come out of his forehead.  He rubbed his forehead and only vaguely heard a few words like “mian” and “tao”.

After they finished speaking, they lowered their heads and waited for Xi Ning to give his commands, since staying at Xi Ning’s place is several times better than staying with Huo Xiu. One of the cherry blossom spirits quietly raised her head and glanced at Xi Ning, and blushed shyly.

Xi Ning came back to his senses, only to realize that he hadn’t paid attention to their names. He pointed to the low-class devil at the very end of the row and asked again, “What’s your name?”

The low-class devil raised his head, revealing the same face as Song Zhou again. He then replied softly, “Your Royal Highness, slave’s name is Chu Yi.”

In the devil clan, the names of the low-class devil are very arbitrary. Only a devil with status had a surname. Xi Ning felt very uncomfortable when Chu Yi called himself a slave. Xi Ning frowned and said, “You don’t need to call yourself slave again.”

Compared with the first time Chu Yi met Xi Ning, he seemed to be more courageous. His dark red eyes looked at Xi Ning for a moment, then he lowered his eyes and said, “Yes.”

The tree spirit on the side was still waiting for Xi Ning’s command to allocate these spirits to their places, but he saw Xi Ning wave his hand. “You all can leave first.”

Xi Ning looked tired and kept pressing his forehead. The tree spirit guessed that Xi Ning was about to reach adulthood and felt uncomfortable when his dragon’s horns were about to grow out. He didn’t dare to disturb Xi Ning any more, and took those spirits out of his bedroom quietly.

When the tree spirit reached the corridor, he pondered Xi Ning’s words and said to Chu Yi, “From now on……you will be in charge of serving His Royal Highness throughout his daily life.”

These spirits seem to be quite obedient, and other palaces also use spirits or low-class devils as servants. The tree monster was currently quite satisfied with them.

The corners of Chu Yi’s lips curled up slightly. He bowed and replied, ”Yes.”

The tree spirit instructed the other spirits where they are supposed to go, and took out a few dark red bracelets for them to wear. He also put spells on them.

This was a magic bracelet that could limit the range of movement and suppress spiritual power. Although these spirits had low spiritual powers, it was better to be cautious when they first entered the palace.

“The Immortal Palace is different from the outside. Being able to serve here is a blessing. All of you have to be more honest and obedient so that you may still have better opportunities in the future.”

The tree spirit advised them and finally waved and called Chu Yi. “Come with me, I will tell you what to do.”

Xi Ning lay down for another afternoon. In the evening, someone brought him something to eat. He raised his eyes to see that it was Chu Yi.

“Your Royal Highness.” Chu Yi placed the plate on the small square table beside the couch and carefully arranged it. “Do you think this dim sum fits your taste?”

Xi Ning just woke up and was a little muddled. When he saw Chu Yi’s face, he thought that he was still in the previous world. He leaned toward Chu Yi. “Hey, you feed..…”

Halfway through his speech, Xi Ning came back to his senses and sat back silently.

“Forget about it, I don’t have any appetite now, put it here first.”

Chu Yi was still standing beside him. Xi Ning couldn’t help looking at his face several times, but the system hadn’t replied to him yet.

Xi Ning suddenly realized that even if Chu Yi was really Song Zhou, would he still be able to restore his previous memories? If he couldn’t recover his memory, their identity and relationship in this new world would be different. To put it bluntly, would Chu Yi still like himself?
