Chapter 126

Xi Ning’s body tensed up. He was still one of the candidates for marriage with the spirit clan. Yuan Ting went back after the banquet was over. Why did he come back to the Immortal Palace again at this time?

“Greetings to the spirit prince.” Xi Ning lowered his head and greeted Yuan Ting, then took a seat at the back of the hall.

The Immortal Emperor didn’t bother about his attitude. He told Yuan Ting that his youngest son didn’t like crowded places, and he also didn’t like to talk much. Xi Ning listened to him with a bad premonition. He raised his head carefully and looked anxiously at Si TuZhao.

Si TuZhao came into contact with his gaze. His expression softened a lot, and he gave Xi Ning a look to calm him down.

Yuan Ting listened carefully to what the Immortal Emperor said, and smiled. “I have heard that the seventh prince has a good personality and is gentle and introverted. He should also be much younger than me, right?”

“This year he is exactly a hundred years old. When his dragon’s horns are fully grown, he will be a grown up.”

“I see.”

He turned his head and smiled softly at Xi Ning. Xi Ning felt awkward, but it would be not polite if he didn’t give any response, so he responded back to Yuan Ting with a light smile.

The Immortal Emperor and Yuan Ting were chatting, as if they were giving Xi Ning a blind date. He and Si TuZhao were very silent, and Si TuZhao also couldn’t find an opportunity to speak.

Xi Ning was getting fidgety, but fortunately, the Immortal Emperor was usually very busy, he needed to take his leave already after speaking with Yuan Ting for a while.

After the Immortal Emperor left, Yuan Ting came forward to Xi Ning with a very friendly attitude. “Seventh prince, let me send you back to your palace……”

Si TuZhao pulled Xi Ning over, and spoke with a taunting tone. “Spirit clan’s prince, I am afraid that you will still get lost in the Immortal Palace. How can you send the seventh prince back?”

Yuan Ting felt something inexplicable. When he came to see the Immortal Emperor today, Si TuZhao was already in the hall. He only heard a few words about the purpose of the Devil Lord’s coming to the Immortal Palace, and didn’t know much about it.

Looking at his attitude now, could it be……

Si TuZhao stopped looking at Yuan Ting, and said to Xi Ning, “Regarding the theft in the seventh prince’s palace last time, I still have something to discuss with you. Your Royal Highness, please come with me first.”

He took Xi Ning’s arm and walked out of the front hall. Xi Ning turned to look at Yuan Ting and was not sure what to do, but in the end he left with Si TuZhao.

The two left the Immortal Emperor’s palace and walked back to Xi Ning’s palace. On the way back, Si TuZhao took Xi Ning to a remote place when there was no one around, and pressed him against the wall to kiss. Xi Ning pushed him and said nervously, “Um…… What if someone else sees us? Let me go first……”

Si TuZhao released Xi Ning after having enough kisses, and was pissed off. “That sly old fox, Immortal Emperor……”

He was trying to have a talk with the Immortal Emperor today, implying that he liked Xi Ning and wanted to test the attitude of the Immortal Emperor.

But, the Immortal Emperor was acting like a fool with him, and then the prince of the spirit clan came, but the Immortal Emperor did not tell him to leave, as if he was intentionally letting him know what the prince of the spirit clan was doing there.

The Immortal Emperor was clearly hinting to him that the spirit clan was also interested in Xi Ning, and wanted to marry Xi Ning; it depended on who was more “sincere”.

Huo Xiu had previously recommended Xi Ning as a marriage candidate in order to blackmail Xi Ning. But then, Huo Xiu had no time to care about it anymore. When the spirit clan got to know about this, they were really satisfied with Xi Ning.

Si TuZhao did not expect this, and now he was getting really irritated. “It’s my fault for being late……But I will never let you marry that bald bird.”

The spirit prince was a spirit of the golden crow.

He recalled that when he was in the front hall just now, Xi Ning even smiled at Yuan Ting, and his jealousy surged. “Next time don’t pay attention to him, and you can’t smile at him either.”

Xi Ning was trying to hold back his laughter and pushed Si TuZhao to walk forward. “He is the prince of the spirit clan. No matter what reason he comes to the Immortal Palace, he is also a guest. Besides, in front of the Immortal Emperor, I can’t help but show him a good attitude.”

Si TuZhao knew that he was being unreasonable, but he just thought Yuan Ting was an eyesore.

Since the Immortal Emperor wanted him to compete with Yuan Ting, he should propose marriage to Xi Ning in an upright manner. He should at least let the whole Immortal Palace and the whole spirit clan know that he wanted to snatch Xi Ning from them.

So Si TuZhao didn’t hold back anymore, and directly followed Xi Ning into his palace through the gate. Uncle Rong saw him coming and thought there was something wrong, but he only saw Si TuZhao alone and being pulled quickly to the bedroom by Xi Ning.
