Chapter 111

Xi Ning slowed down after leaving the pavilion. Except for the occasional servants who passed by to salute him, basically no one passed by here.

He never thought that Si TuZhao would come near his palace…… Xi Ning became more confident of his guesses, and sat down on a stone bench.

The system felt that it was a pity that he left like this. “Master, you should go directly and find an opportunity to be alone with Si TuZhao.”

Xi Ning only said, “I think……”

Before he could finish his sentence, a slightly strong wind blew his way, and Xi Ning’s vision was blocked. Someone hugged him from behind and covered his eyes.

Xi Ning only panicked for a moment, and then smelled a familiar scent.

Si TuZhao took Xi Ning with him quickly and went across the yard. He found a more isolated place, and hid behind a rockery with Xi Ning.

He took his hand away, Xi Ning regained his sight. He squinted his eyes and turned around, it turned out to be Si TuZhao.

Xi Ning said with a cold expression, “What does the Devil Lord want from me?”

Si TuZhao was not surprised by his attitude. He got closer to Xi Ning and pinched his chin. “Where does this beautiful little dragon come from? How about going back to the Devil Realm with me?”

Xi Ning slapped his hand away, and the grievances feeling that he had accumulated for several days surged. “I don’t know you.”

Si TuZhao saw that Xi Ning was in a bad mood, so he hugged him and coaxed, “My Ning Ning, sorry that I’m late…… Will you please let me explain?”

Xi Ning stretched out his hand to push him but couldn’t move him away. Si TuZhao lowered his head and kissed the tip of Xi Ning’s nose. The familiar touch made Xi Ning’s struggling movements lessen.

“As soon as I came to the Immortal Palace, the Immortal Emperor became suspicious of me. He sent someone to observe me for several days.” Si TuZhao was also aggrieved. “If I let him discover that I had a connection with you before, it would be troublesome for you.”

Si TuZhao hadn’t thought that he would return to the Immortal Palace in the first place. He just wanted to catch Han Ji and leave, so he didn’t bother to disguise his face very much.

He knew that there were rumors that Huo Xiu brought two devils into the Immortal Palace, but the Immortal Emperor would not believe it easily. He planned to say that he came into contact with Xi Ning several times and fell in love with him, but now he was at the stage of “first visit to the Immortal Palace”, so he had to pretend a bit in front of others. Otherwise if others knew that there were devils that could sneak into the Immortal Palace easily without anyone knowing, it would damage the reputation of the Immortal Emperor.

There was also Huo Xiu, who had seen his face before, and as expected, he questioned him in front of everyone at the banquet that day.

The Immortal Emperor only relaxed his vigilance in the past two days. Si TuZhao found the opportunity to go near Xi Ning’s palace. He never expected to really meet Xi Ning this soon.

After Si TuZhao finished explaining carefully, Xi Ning was still unhappy.

What Si TuZhao said was very close to what Xi Ning had guessed. During this period, Xi Ning missed Si TuZhao very much but then the cold attitude he got when they met again…… Xi Ning lowered his head. “I was very worried about you.”

Xi Ning was very worried about Si TuZhao’s situation before, but then he suddenly returned back as a Devil Lord.

“It’s my fault,  it’s my fault……” Si TuZhao felt distressed, he kissed Xi Ning’s cheek softly and said, “The Immortal Emperor has already withdrawn the person that was observing me secretly. I was planning to go and find you tonight……”

A few nights ago, he released a paper crow over to see Xi Ning, but the paper crow couldn’t even get in the window.

He wanted Xi Ning to be happier, so he talked about one of his reasons for his visit to the Immortal Palace. “I will also request the Immortal Emperor’s permission to marry you, and drive away the prince of the spirit clan as soon as possible……”

Xi Ning’s eyes widened. “Request to marry me?”

Si TuZhao smiled. “Yes, are you not happy?”

He also missed Xi Ning very much. Now he couldn’t help but lower his head to kiss him. Xi Ning was still stunned and let him kiss.

Xi Ning gradually came back to his senses. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He could still forgive him if Si TuZhao pretended that he didn’t know him because of the consequences, but this person had deceived him and said he was a devil general before, and even the name that he gave before was fake. Every time, he never told the truth. Even when he left, he didn’t mention this matter at all. Xi Ning bit Si TuZhao’s tongue fiercely and pushed him away when he was caught off guard.

Xi Ning still wore the magic weapon given by Si TuZhao. The magic weapon had already recognized Xi Ning as the master, when it detected his emotions, it directly attacked Si TuZhao.

Si TuZhao was repelled by his own demonic energy. Behind him was a rockery, which was shattered by the impact of him landing on it. He stepped back a few steps and fell into the grass patch behind the rockery.

There were servants nearby who heard the noise and rushed over to find out what happened. The Devil Lord calmly got up from the ground slowly and patted the grass that was on his body. “Cough……. it’s nothing.”
