Chapter 113

Did Xi Ning mean that only he could touch them? Si TuZhao was so happy, but he suddenly remembered. “At the banquet that day, I saw you bring a female servant with you?”

He also saw Xi Ning talking to her. In the past, Xi Ning had never brought anyone besides him. Si TuZhao was a bit jealous and said, “You didn’t even take me with you to go outside your palace.”

“Her name is Chuntao. She was caught by Huo Xiu along with you. She saw your face before so I already sent her away after the banquet.” It seemed that Si TuZhao was secretly paying attention to him during the banquet. Xi Ning was in a much better mood. “I didn’t want to take her, but Uncle Rong insisted, so I didn’t refuse.”

After that, he deliberately raised his head. “You are the one only allowed to conceal your identity, but I am not allowed to take a servant with me?”

Si TuZhao said without hesitation, “Yes, you can’t.”

“I don’t want to see you get too close to others.” If he could, he even wanted to take Xi Ning back to his own palace and hide him from everyone. “Besides, do you not know how the servant looks at you? It seems that she likes you.”

Si TuZhao took a bite of Xi Ning’s cheek, leaving a very faint mark. “I must marry you soon……”

Speaking of this, Xi Ning wiped his face and sat up a little bit. “I have been selected as the marriage candidate for the spirit clan. If you are here to propose a marriage, will the Immortal Emperor disagree?”

“If he doesn’t agree, I will just rob you away,” Si TuZhao said half-jokingly. “Besides, after I release the news that I want to marry you, the spirit prince will have to give up and pick another.”

The way he spoke was completely different from when he was Chu Yi. It seemed that he looked down on everyone. Xi Ning was interested by his changes, but when he said this, Xi Ning was quite relieved.

“Has Huo Xiu come to trouble you again recently?” Si TuZhao also heard that Huo Xiu had perverse intentions towards Xi Ning. Some people said that Huo Xiu went to visit Xi Ning but was driven away by Xi Ning. “I know that he will not behave. I’ll kill him myself one day.”

Si TuZhao’s eyes were filled with murderous intentions. Xi Ning almost forgot that he still had the poison in his body. Now that Si TuZhao was here, wouldn’t it be just the right time to ask him to help to get rid of the poison?

But the system said, “Sorry master, I have locked up the poison…… you can only wait for the poison to come out after the cycle is over. This way it will cause less damage to the master’s body. And also this is the safest way.”

The poison couldn’t be detected now. Xi Ning couldn’t explain it to Si TuZhao, so he changed the subject. “By the way, have you found the Tian Wu Zhu that was stolen by Han Ji?”

“Not yet.” Si TuZhao shook his head. “He didn’t have anything with him before he died. I suspect that he gave Tian Wu Zhu to Huo Xiu.”

If this was true, he would have even more reason to kill Huo Xiu. He would also let the Immortal Emperor know his general‘s true colours.

Bringing back Tian Wu Zhu was also another purpose of his visit. There was also Han Ji. He originally explained the reason to the Immortal Emperor and wanted to take another look at Han Ji’s corpse. Cultivators in the Immortal Palace couldn’t find a way to identify the corpse, but he had the ability to summon Han Ji’s dead soul from the corpse in front of the Emperor Immortal. But then he was told that the corpse had been thrown into fire by Huo Xiu and had already been burned to ashes.

If Tian Wu Zhu fell into Huo Xiu’s hands, wouldn’t it increase the probability of his character collapsing? Xi Ning was worried. Si TuZhao said again, “I guess Huo Xiu doesn’t know how to use the Tian Wu Zhu, but this Tian Wu Zhu won’t be harmless. After a while, it will definitely take the initiative to seduce Huo Xiu.”

Both of them talked for a while. Si TuZhao took a look at the sky and was about to leave. “I have to go to see the Immortal Emperor to avoid him getting suspicious at me again.”

He leaned close and kissed Xi Ning, after that he said reluctantly, “I will see you again at night.”

After speaking, Si TuZhao turned into black smoke as usual and exited the bedroom from the window.

When Si TuZhao found the Immortal Emperor, he was playing chess with a cultivator.

Seeing Si TuZhao had come to visit, the Immortal Emperor asked the cultivator to leave, he then raised his hand to signal Si TuZhao to take his seat.

“Have the Devil Lord found out anything?”

When Si TuZhao came to the Immortal Palace, he said that a treasure from the Devil Realm was stolen, and it was very likely that it was in the Immortal Palace. He wanted to search for it in each hall.

Si TuZhao has been walking around in the Immortal Palace these few days, trying to see if he can sense the aura of the treasure.

“Yes, but the aura that I noticed is very weak, so I can’t be completely sure……” Si TuZhao hesitated. “It is near the West Hall. If I want to search further, I would need the help of the Immortal Emperor.”

The West Hall is Huo Xiu’s territory. The Emperor Immortal didn’t hesitate for a long time, and he readily agreed, “It’s important to find the treasure as soon as possible.”

He called the servant in front of Si TuZhao and said, “Pass down my order, no one in the Immortal Palace shall get in the way of the Devil Lord’s search, and then allocate some servants from my hall to help the Devil Lord for his search.”

“Thank you, Immortal Emperor.”
