After Xi Ning received the letter, he saw that the contents did not look like what Situ wrote in the note.
Moreover, when Situ Zhao was looking for him, he came in person. Wherever he had used this kind of thing, it must be some bad and stupid person who wanted to lead him out.
Even blatantly made an appointment at the door of his palace, so you are not afraid of being seen
Xi Ning couldn't figure it out, so he sent someone outside the temple to quietly see what was going on, but it didn't take long for him to be informed that the original court had come.
Yuan Ting couldn't wait for the announcement and hurriedly walked in, and saw Xi Ning step forward and eagerly said: "Little Qi, are you okay?"
Inexplicably, Xi Ning took a step back: "It's okay, why does the prince come to me?"
Yuan Ting looked around at him, breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at the servants around him: "That's good, you... do you have something to tell me?"
"No," Xi Ning was surprised. He remembered the letter and showed it to Yuan Ting. "You didn't receive this too, did you?"
Yuan Ting took it and took a look, immediately stunned, and took out another letter in his hand for comparison. The content was almost the same, and the handwriting was exactly the same.
"This..." Yuan Ting's face was embarrassed. The two letters were in front of him. It was obvious that someone wanted to lead him and Xi Ning to meet outside the gate of the palace, but Xi Ning didn't believe it at all, only he ran hurriedly, thinking that What's the matter with Xi Ning
He just came in anxiously, and now he realized that Shuxiu who was following him was missing. Yuan Ting looked around: "Where is Elder Shu?"
"Ningning!"
Situ Zhao also arrived at this time. He bypassed Yuan Ting and went straight to Xi Ning. He took his hand and looked around him. After no abnormality was found, he turned his head and said coldly, "What's the matter?"
He secretly arranged for someone to protect Xi Ning, and he got the news as early as when Xi Ning received the letter.
The subordinates didn't know what the letter was for, so they hadn't intercepted it, and notified Situ Zhao first. After he had dealt with the Emperor, he rushed over as soon as possible.
Yuan Ting did not want to talk more in front of Situ Zhao, but said: "It's all a misunderstanding. I will investigate this matter carefully."
After that, he turned and left, faster than when he came.
After he left, Situ Zhao pulled Xi Ning back to the bedroom and asked, "What is he doing?"
Both letters were taken away by Yuan Ting. Xi Ning told the story to Situ for listening, and some wanted to laugh: "What does this man think, a note wants to lie to me, and he dare to make an appointment outside my hall. , When I am stupid."
Situ Zhao's face was solemn, and Xi Ning was relieved in his arms, thinking: "Maybe the purpose of the letter is not in you, but in the original court."
Yuan Ting, this stupid bird sees what letter he sees, he will know if he is so anxious, but Situ Zhao can't figure out, what is the purpose of the person who sent the letter? After Yuan Ting came, it seemed that he didn't do anything else.
On Huo Xiu's side, he had always arranged for someone to guard him, and he hadn't noticed any other movement.
He bowed his head and kissed Xi Ning, his dark red eyes only reflected on him, "The Immortal Palace is also so insecure, I want to take you back to the Demon Realm immediately."
"I will be there soon." Xi Ning is not interested in such things as hiring. If it weren't for the task, he would like to go back to the demon world with Situ Zhao directly. "The immortal emperor shouldn't agree to marry the demon clan. Got it."
Even if you want to get married, you can change another person. Xi Ning thinks that if the emperor disagrees, he can just refuse it at first.
Situ Zhao's thoughts were not so optimistic. The other old immortals in the Demon Realm never did anything. They never moved their eyelids when the Sky Witch Orb was stolen.
This time he wanted to grab someone from the Demon Race, he naturally needed the support of the other Demon Venerables, but... the response he got can be imagined.
Now the Emperor is hanging about Xi Ning's marriage, and still not letting him touch Huo Xiu. The hands that dared to give him before were all illusions. After several confrontations between him and Huo Xiu, both sides did not hurt.
Situ Zhao was used to being comfortable in the Demon Realm. After coming to the Immortal Palace, he was restricted everywhere, and he was aggrieved a long time ago, but he didn't let Xi Ning know anything about it.
The attitude of Emperor Xiandi has become increasingly unclear recently, and he is worried that Xi Ning will still be married to Yuan Ting.
He didn’t kill Huo Xiu directly to retrieve the Sky Witch Pearl because of Xi Ning’s sake, so that the emperor didn’t feel ugly on his face. If he had reached that point, he immediately killed Huo Xiu to get the Pearl, and then took Xi Ning with him. Leave.
It's just that, when he initially promised Xi Ning to marry him honestly, he would break his promise.
Xi Ning's dragon horns are almost fully grown, Situ Zhao stretched out his fingertips and stroked them gently: "If you want, I can take you away now."
"I..." Xi Ning sighed, "Wait for a while, okay? I will definitely go back with you."
Situ Zhao was silent for a long time and replied: "Okay."
Two days later, there was a message in the fairy palace that Huo Xiu was missing.
When Uncle Rong told Xi Ning about this, Xi Ning was shocked: "Missing?"
But he did not receive any system prompts. The system quickly inquired about Huo Xiu's current location and status. Uncle Rong said: "Yes, General Huo didn't go to the morning court for two consecutive days, and was found to have arranged to pretend to be him in the bedroom. People in, are now guessing whether he secretly left the fairy palace for self-protection."
No wonder others think so. Since the rumors about him began to spread in the fairy palace, many people who were dissatisfied with him have jumped out, and because of his identity, he dared not do anything, and secretly defined him as collusion. The chief culprit of the demons stealing treasures.
Huo Xiu left his post without authorization, and the immortal emperor had not condemned him yet, the people under his hands were panicked, looking like they didn't know.
If he really ran away, what about his mission? Xi Ning was worried, and said systematically: "He... is still in the fairy palace."
"Still? Then where did he go?"
The search range of the system was originally small. At this time, the signal seemed to be disturbed, and only a general direction could be obtained, but it was certain that the other person was still in the fairy palace.
"Nothing will happen to him..." Xi Ning's first reaction was that he had been killed and left his body, but the system said that Huo Xiu still had vital characteristics, and that he would be reminded of a mission if he died.
Xi Ning felt very confused. He and the system confirmed several times that Huo Xiu was still alive and had stayed in the same place and never left or showed up.
"What are you doing again..."
"Ah, this..." The system thought for a while, "Most of that area is very remote and more suitable for hiding, but after all, it is in the fairy palace, which is still very risky. His situation is indeed not normal..."
But now that he had been spotted, Xi Ning mentioned it to Situ Zhao, saying that someone had seen Huo Xiu appear in the fairy palace, probably in which direction.
Situ Zhao said suspiciously, "Who saw it?"
He was also looking for Huo Xiu these past two days, but he didn't look for it in the fairy palace. He only felt that the other party slipped out of the fairy palace when he was not paying attention.
If someone really saw Huo Xiu, there was no news from him, but Xi Ning, who stayed in the bedroom every day, knew.
"I can't remember the name," Xi Ning said vaguely, "You can take someone over to have a look, and you can search the palace by the way."
What he said also made sense, confirming that Huo Xiu was not in the palace but it was safer for Xi Ning.
So Situ Zhao took some people to Xi Ning's place, preparing to search carefully, and found something unusual.
It was not far from Xi Ning's palace. It was an almost deserted yard. Usually, few people passed by, let alone set foot. When Situ Zhao approached, he noticed a strong monster air.
Formations were also laid out around the yard, and the bushes in the center of the yard grew by a foot inexplicably, and there were many snow-white spider silks entwined outside.
The elder of the monster clan next to Yuan Ting is the spider spirit. Could this matter have something to do with him? Situ Zhao was about to break the formation, but the formation suddenly solved by himself.
The bushes in the middle also made a quivering movement, and soon a crack opened in the middle. Shuxiu walked out of it, bending over to salute Situ Zhao: "I have seen the devil."
"If I remember correctly, you are the elder Shuxiu of the demon clan," Situ Zhao never put down his guard, and the subordinates behind him did the same, "what are you doing in the fairy palace?"
Shuxiu looked lazy, and raised her hand to signal the other person inside to also come out: "Return to Demon Lord, this is a long story..."
After a while, Huo Xiu's noodles appeared in front of everyone like a dish.
The news that Huo Xiu was attracted by Shuxiu quickly spread throughout the fairy palace. Not only did the two of them suddenly look at each other, Shuxiu also found a place to connect directly in the fairy palace...
However, some insiders claimed that there were so many officials under Shuxiu's skirt that they couldn't look down on Huo Xiu at all. This time it was a complete accident, and Huo Xiu looked a little miserable. Shuxiu was a spider spirit again, this...
After Xi Ning heard about this from Situ Zhao, he couldn't believe it. He obviously didn't do anything. Why did Shuxiu have a relationship with Huo Xiu like this
The system speculates: "In fact, in the original book, the Yaozu was not married to His Highness Seven, and did not pay much attention to it. Naturally, Shuxiu would not be arranged to send the betrothal gift. So the meeting of the two people was early, which probably belonged to their plot. Naturally ahead of time..."
As long as the task reminder does not appear, the plot will not collapse, and everything is in a normal and reasonable direction.
"Then... Will Shuxiu get pregnant..." Xi Ning's expression was dull, and he hadn't recovered from the news. "Aren't all this going too smoothly?"
"It will take some time to confirm the pregnancy, so don't worry the host."
It was found that Shuxiu and Huo Xiu were Situ Zhao. Although this was strange, he was quite happy. The elder of the Yao clan actually intimidated the immortal palace general to do this kind of thing. The monsters drove out of the fairy palace together, and the marriage was determined to be annulled.
Without competitors, Xi Ning would only marry herself.
As for what Shuxiu said that Huo Xiu drugged her first, Huo Xiu said that he had never done this before, and that Shuxiu inexplicably wounded him. These were the two of them.
However, after waiting for a few days, finally waiting for the immortal emperor's order, it was to let Xi Ning marry the demon prince Yuan Ting, and Huo Xiu was demoted as a general and presented to Shu Xiu.
At the same time, Xi Ning also received task reminders and task value rewards.
[The Sky Witch Orb has moved away from the character, the probability of character collapse has dropped by 50%, and it has entered the normal value evaluation process, rewarding the task with a value of 10 points. ]
Xi Ning was unprepared. If the Sky Witch Orb was no longer by Huo Xiu's side, Situ Zhao should have taken it back. Why did Immortal Emperor be so suddenly...
He blankly sent the attendant who had passed the order, and went into the bedroom and kept behind closed doors.
The system anxiously said: "How can I marry the host to the bald bird? What is in the mind of this immortal emperor? This character will not also collapse, right..."
Xi Ning calmly said: "It's okay, I'll wait for Situ Zhao to come and take me away."
Huo Xiu has been given to Shuxiu and has entered the role observation period. Even if Shuxiu is not pregnant this time, he should have a chance in the future. This task is probably nothing to him.
Let him marry him? Even if there is no Situ Zhao, he will definitely escape marriage.
Xi Ning waited in the bedroom for a day, during which Yuan Ting came to him and some people who came to congratulate him were turned away.
Until midnight, the black mist squeezed in from the window quietly, and Situ Zhao appeared in front of Xi Ning, with anger and killing intent spreading in his eyes.
He finally came. Xi Ning was pleased to see his face a little timid, and said cautiously: "The first day of the new year..."
Situ Zhao quickly put away his emotions, hugged Xi Ning and kissed him: "Good treasure, come back to the demon world with me."
Of course Xi Ning would not refuse, he nodded: "Okay... But why did the Emperor Immortal suddenly be like this? I thought..."
Speaking of this Situ Zhao's face is not very good-looking, the words are cold and permeating: "The people around Yuan Ting are really powerful. Shuxiu discovered the Sky Witch Bead hidden in Huo Xiu's body and handed the beads to the Immortal Emperor. "
