He Has a Sickness that Needs to be Cured

Chapter 104

Uncle Rong led him to the front hall. On the way, he saw many unfamiliar faces walking around. Uncle Rong explained to Xi Ning, “I heard that two devils got into the Immortal Palace last night. It seems that they even had a fight. It happened far away from our place, so we didn’t get the news immediately…… but from what I know one of the devils was killed and another one was wounded. General Huo said that the wounded one was still hidden in the Immortal Palace so he had to search for him.”

“This is a serious matter. Your Royal Highness must not go against General Huo. He will leave after he finishes searching.”

Uncle Rong knew that Xi Ning disliked Huo Xiu because of last time, but now the situation was completely different. There were two devils that actually managed to sneak into the Immortal Palace, and one was even found dead. He could already imagine the Immortal Emperor’s reaction after knowing this.

Xi Ning didn’t speak all the way, but when he was outside the hall, Uncle Rong realized that he was shaking slightly. He thought Xi Ning was afraid and whispered, “Your Royal Highness, don’t be afraid, I have been in the hall the whole night, and no strangers have come in.”

The system also quickly said, “Han Ji must be the one who died, so the master should not panic, and deal with Huo Xiu first.”

Xi Ning closed his eyes, steadying his emotions and walked into the hall.

Huo Xiu sat on the chair with a gloomy expression. He saw Xi Ning come over and his lips curled up. “Your Royal Highness, you are finally here.”

Xi Ning sat down opposite of him. The servant on the side also poured him a cup of tea, and he drank it to moisten his lips. “General Huo has reached here to search my place. It seems that other palaces have already been searched?”

Huo Xiu turned a deaf ear, but asked him first, “I remember that when I came last time, there was a low-class devil besides Your Royal Highness. Why don’t I see him today?”

Xi Ning breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He smiled calmly at Huo Xiu. “Perhaps he is busy working elsewhere. Didn’t General Huo also bring a subordinate last time? He is not here today either.”

Huo Xiu’s face became even more gloomy. This made Xi Ning certain that Han Ji was the one that was dead.

Huo Xiu came here to search his palace and specifically mentioned Chu Yi. His intention was very obvious. Perhaps Han Ji had recognized Chu Yi before and he had told Huo Xiu about him.

Chu Yi would not be so stupid as to return to his palace after being found out. He must have returned to the Devil Realm safely.

The people that Huo Xiu had brought were still looking around in the palace. Xi Ning was not in a good mood, so he wanted to pissed off Huo Xiu. “Does General Huo know how the two devils got into the Immortal Palace?”

Huo Xiu sneered. “When I catch the one who escaped, I’ll find out after I question him.”

“But I heard Uncle Rong said that they probably had grievances with each other, and they even fought in the Immortal Palace.” Xi Ning asked Huo Xiu with a puzzled face, “They even caused a huge commotion, so why was it only found out after one of the devils was dead?”

Uncle Rong who was standing next to Xi Ning also noticed something was wrong and asked, “That’s right, does the general know where the devils were first discovered?”

Huo Xiu’s face was unkind. Originally, Han Ji told him that there was a high-level demon hidden beside Xi Ning and he wanted to steal Tian Wu Zhu. He and Han Ji had planned to kill him together when he came again to avoid future trouble.

To be on the safe side, he himself did not fight Chu Yi directly, but secretly helped Han Ji. However, in this way he could not exert his full strength. Chu Yi was more powerful than he expected. He not only killed Han Ji, but also managed to escape even though he was seriously injured. Fortunately, Han Ji gave Tian Wu Zhu to himself for safekeeping……

Naturally, Huo Xiu wouldn’t want to alert others at first. But after Han Ji died, he was anxious to find out the whereabouts of Chu Yi to kill him and wanted to search for him in Xi Ning’s palace, so he claimed that devils had sneaked into the Immortal Palace.

Now that Uncle Rong questioned him, he replied with a gloomy face, “This is not a trivial matter. Is it something that a lowly servant like you can ask?”

Uncle Rong lowered his eyes and replied, “Yes, you’re right.” At this time, the people who were searching the place came back one after another, saying that no abnormalities had been found.
