He Has a Sickness that Needs to be Cured

Chapter 136

Si TuZhao was used to being comfortable in the Devil Realm. After he came to the Immortal Palace, he was restricted everywhere. He felt very aggrieved, but he didn’t let Xi Ning know anything about it.

Recently, the attitude of the Immortal Emperor had become more and more unclear. He was worried that Xi Ning would still be married to Yuan Ting.

He didn’t kill Huo Xiu directly to retrieve Tian Wu Zhu because of Xi Ning’s sake, so that the Immortal Emperor would not lose face. If in the end he had no choice, he would immediately kill Huo Xiu to get Tian Wu Zhu, and then take Xi Ning to leave together.

It’s just that, he would break his promise to marry Xi Ning properly.

Xi Ning’s dragon horns were almost fully grown. Si TuZhao stretched out his fingertips and stroked them gently. “If you want, I can take you away now.”

“I…..” Xi Ning sighed. “Can you wait a little longer? I will definitely go back with you.”

Si TuZhao was silent for a long time, and replied, “Alright.”

Two days later, there was a rumour spreading in the Immortal Palace that Huo Xiu went missing.

When Uncle Rong told Xi Ning about this, Xi Ning was shocked. “Missing?”

But he did not receive any mission instruction. The system quickly checks Huo Xiu’s current location and status. Uncle Rong said, “Yes, General Huo didn’t attend the morning meeting for the past two days, and was found that he had arranged someone to pretend to be him in the bedroom. People are now guessing whether he secretly left the Immortal Palace to save his own skin.”

No wonder others thought so. Since the rumors about him began to spread in the Immortal Palace, many people who were dissatisfied with him in the past had voiced their dissatisfaction. They didn’t dare to do anything to him because of his identity, but in the dark they secretly determined he was the culprit who colluded with the devil to steal treasures.

Huo Xiu left his post without permission. The Immortal Emperor had not condemned him yet, but the subordinates under him panicked. It looked like they didn’t know anything about his being missing.

If he really ran away, what about his mission? Xi Ning was worried, but the system said, “He…… is still in the Immortal Palace.”

“He is still here? Then where did he go?”

The system only had a relatively small search range. But at this time, the signal seemed to be disturbed, and it can only obtain an estimated direction of where Huo Xiu is, but it was certain that Huo Xiu was still in the Immortal Palace.

“Did something happen to him……” Xi Ning’s first reaction was that he had been killed and his corpse had been thrown away, but the system said that Huo Xiu was still alive, and that Xi Ning would definitely receive a mission prompt if he really died.

Xi Ning felt very confused. He confirmed with the system several times that Huo Xiu was still alive and had stayed in the same place and never left.

“What is this person doing again…….”

“Ah, this……” The system thought for a while. “The area that he was in is very remote and is suitable for hiding, but after all, he is still inside the Immortal Palace, which is still very risky. His situation is indeed not normal……”

But now that he had been spotted, Xi Ning mentioned it to Si TuZhao, saying that someone had seen Huo Xiu still in the Immortal Palace, and which direction he probably was in.

Si TuZhao suspiciously said, “Who saw it?”

He was also looking for Huo Xiu these past two days, but he didn’t find any clues at all. He thought that Huo Xiu sneaked out of the fairy Immortal Palace when he was not paying attention to him.

If someone saw Huo Xiu, why was it he couldn’t get any news, but rather Xi Ning, who stayed in the bedroom every day, was able to find out.

“I can’t remember the name,” Xi Ning said vaguely. “You can bring your subordinates over to have a look, and you can also search other areas of the palace on the way.”

Si TuZhao thought that what Xi Ning said made sense, since confirming whether Huo Xiu was still in the palace could also ensure Xi Ning’s safety.

So Si TuZhao took some subordinates to the place where Xi Ning said, and searched carefully. He really found something unusual.

Not far from Xi Ning’s palace, there was a courtyard that was almost deserted. Usually, very few people passed by let alone set foot there. When Si TuZhao approached there, he noticed a strong spiritual aura in the air.

Magic formations were also laid out around the courtyard, and the bushes in the center inexplicably grew taller by a foot, and there was a lot of snow-white spider silk entwined outside.

The elder of the spirit clan that was always beside Yuan Ting was a spider spirit. Could this matter have something to do with her? Si TuZhao was about to destroy the formation, but the formation suddenly broke by itself.

The bushes in the middle also made some noise, and soon a crack appeared in the middle. Shu Xiu walked out of it, bending over and saluting to Si TuZhao. “Greetings to the Devil Lord.”

“If I remember correctly, you are the spirit clan’s elder, Shu Xiu.” Si TuZhao did not put down his guard, and the subordinates behind him did the same. “Why did you weave your spider silks in the Immortal Palace?”

Shu Xiu looked lethargic, and raised her hand to signal the other person who was inside to come out. “Regarding this matter, it’s a long story……”

After a while, Huo Xiu appeared in front of everyone and he looked miserable.
