He Has a Sickness that Needs to be Cured

Chapter 121

The Immortal Emperor and Si TuZhao were in the front hall. The servant led Xi Ning to the door and left. When Xi Ning entered the hall, he saw the Immortal Emperor sitting on the upper side, and Si TuZhao sitting on the lower side. Si TuZhao heard the sound and raised his eyes to look over.

Xi Ning hadn’t seen Si TuZhao in the past few days. At this time, his heart was beating very fast, and he was afraid of being noticed by the Immortal Emperor. But then, Si TuZhao looked away quickly.

There was yet another person kneeling in the hall. Xi Ning could only see his back, but he didn’t know who it was. He stepped forward and saluted the Immortal Emperor. “Father.”

This is how the system told him to call the Immortal Emperor. It said that although the Immortal Emperor didn’t see his sons much, he preferred to be called more intimately. The Immortal Emperor said gently, “Get up.”

Xi Ning sat down opposite Si TuZhao, and soon a servant served him tea. Only then did he discover that the person kneeling in the hall was a low-level devil.

Xi Ning was keenly aware of something, and then he looked at this low-level devil carefully and, finding that he had a body shape similar to Si TuZhao and even his profile was somewhat similar to Si TuZhao’s appearance, he immediately understood what was going on.

The Immortal Emperor asked, “Can Xiao Qi recognize him?”

Xi Ning nodded and said, “I recognize him. He was a servant in my palace.”

He glanced at Si TuZhao quietly, but the other person’s expression was nothing unusual, so he knew that he was right.

The low-level devil was very scared, and turned sideways to beg Xi Ning for mercy. “Your Royal Highness, please forgive me, I would never dare……”

Xi Ning stayed silent, and Si TuZhao said at this moment, “Such an offender with ill intentions should be dealt with as soon as possible.”

He raised his hand to indicate for the servant to the side to come over with some miscellaneous things in his hands, such as teapots and tableware, all made of fine jade, and a silk belt, placed in front of Xi Ning for him to check.

The Immortal Emperor said, “Send these all back to Xiao Qi’s Hall. Also Xiao Qi, you should pay more attention to your servants. Even if you lose some small accessories, you should report it in time when you find them stolen.”

Xi Ning understood, Si TuZhao had found another low-level devil to replace the identity of Chu Yi, and then said that he had stolen something from his palace and fled. His heart warmed. Although Si TuZhao was angry and did not want to see him, he was still concerned about him.

He replied, “Yes, father.”

The Immortal Emperor waved his hand to have the low-level devil taken away. “Punish him based on the fairy law.”

After the low-level devil was taken away. There were only three of them left in the hall. Xi Ning lowered his head and rubbed the edge of the teacup. For a while, he didn’t know what to say. He finally got to meet Si TuZhao, and he didn’t want to leave like this.

Si TuZhao was also very silent, but the Immortal Emperor spoke first. “Xiao Qi, you have to thank the Devil Lord, he was the one that found the stolen thing for you.”

The Immortal Emperor didn’t mention Huo Xiu, and Xi Ning didn’t really know what he was thinking. Following his words, he raised his head and looked at Si TuZhao.

Si TuZhao was also looking at him, there was no emotion in his eyes, not even apathy, but Xi Ning got even more flustered.

Xi Ning whispered, “Thank you…… Devil Lord.”

Si TuZhao retracted his gaze, and replied very calmly, “No need to be so polite.”

At this time, the servant came in and announced, “The Emperor of the West Sea came to visit.”

The Immortal Emperor nodded. “Let him in.”

Si TuZhao and Xi Ning got up and left. The Immortal Emperor did not stop them from leaving either. Si TuZhao walked in front of Xi Ning first. After leaving the front hall, Xi Ning saw there was no one in the room and he whispered to Si TuZhao, “Devil Lord?”

The person in front of him turned a deaf ear, and disappeared after a few breaths. Xi Ning stood there and looked around blankly, and found that he was really gone.

A servant saw him and asked, “Your Royal Highness, who are you looking for?”

Xi Ning pursed his lips and said, “No one.”

The servant still wanted to send him back, but Xi Ning refused him and walked back alone.

On the way back to his palace, he intentionally walked around Si TuZhao’s palace, but he didn’t dare to show up directly for fear that someone else would see him. He quietly walked around for a while before leaving.

Even though Si TuZhao was still angry, he still helped him solve the matter of Chu Yi. At that time, even though he called him the wrong name, he also helped him get rid of the poison before leaving. Xi Ning felt more sad in retrospect, and the negative emotions that he felt because of his illness even worsened. He felt anxiety and lack of security.
