These words made Chu Yi quiet for a while, and then he squeezed the tip of Xi Ningâs chin. âYour Royal Highness, you like me too.â
Xi Ning blushed. âYeahâ¦â¦â
âThen come to the Devil Realm with me.â Chu Yi couldnât help but ask again. âYour Royal Highness, donât be afraid, the Devil Realm is no different from the Immortal Palace. As long as Iâm here, I wonât make your Highness feel uncomfortable.â
He went back to this topic again. Xi Ning was happy that Chu Yi would still like him even if he had no memories of the past, but because of his mission, he really couldnât leave, so he had to coax Chu Yi. âEven thoughâ¦â¦ I like you, but not to the extent that I will go to the Devil Realm with you.â
Chu Yi was not very happy when he heard the words. That means Xi Ning likes him, but only a little bit.
âAnd you lied to me, pretending to be a low-class devil and lurking by my side,â Xi Ning confidently said, âIâm actually still angry.â
Chu Yiâs heart melted, and he admitted his mistake and coaxed Xi Ning softly, âThis is my fault. I shouldnât lie to you for so long.â
Actually, Chu Yi didnât lie to Xi Ning for long. Besides, Chu Yi was also Song Zhou. Xi Ning knew that he would never hurt himself.
Xi Ning rewarded him with a kiss. âThen I will forgive you for the time being.â
Since it was already very late at night, Xi Ningâs sleepiness surged back, he leaned on Chu Yiâs shoulder lethargically.
Chu Yi still planned to go to the West Hall. After Xi Ning was asleep, he carefully put him on the bed, covered him with the quilt, and quietly left the bedroom.
Chu Yi guessed that the devilâs room should be beside Huo Xiuâs bedroom. He turned into smoke and slowly searched around Huo Xiuâs bedroom. Sure enough, he noticed a trace of demonic energy in the side hall.
At first, Chu Yi wanted to go in through the window to investigate, but he found that there was a barrier on the window and he couldnât get in. It was obviously guarding against devils like him.
He noticed that something was strange, so he decided to go back first and wait until the next time he had a chance.
The black smoke drifted in the direction it came, but suddenly someone came out at the corner and blocked his way.
The black-robed manâs eyes were excited, and he held a bright sword in his hand. âWhat an honor that I, Han Ji, am able to make the Devil Lord come in personâ¦â¦â
Xi Ning woke up from sleep, but did not see Chu Yi. He sat by the bed for a while, then he got up to change his clothes and wash his face.
âChu Yi left after the master fell asleep last night. I donât know where he went,â The system said. It didnât say anything the whole time last night, for fear of spoiling the atmosphere. âHe says that he was here to apprehend someone? Maybe it took a while.â
Hearing what the system said, Xi Ning became worried. He got up and wanted to go out to find someone to ask. When he walked to the door, a familiar voice came from behind. âYour Royal Highness.â
Xi Ning turned his head. He didnât know when Chu Yi had already returned. He was still the same appearance as when he came last night, but there was blood on his right hand.
Xi Ning was stunned, and hurried over to check Chu Yiâs injuries. âAre you injured? Iâ¦â¦Iâll go look for medicineâ¦â¦â
âItâs okay,â Chu Yi held him with the other hand. âThis little injury will be healed by itself in no time.â
He was careless. Han Ji was attached to Huo Xiu, and he must have benefited from him. Not only did he increase his power, he also set up a trap to capture him alive.
Fortunately, Han Ji also underestimated his strength. He was only slightly injured, but Han Ji ran away.
Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, Chu Yi worried about being discovered, which would cause unnecessary trouble, so he gave up on chasing Han Ji and went back to Xi Ning.
Han Ji was also injured. Since Chu Yi didnât dare to show up recklessly in the immortal palace, Han Ji would probably come back again.
Xi Ning asked Chu Yi to take off his blood-stained shirt. The clothes could not be worn anymore as they were torn. He threw it aside and cleaned up the blood stains on Chu Yiâs hands with water.
He saw that the wound on Chu Yi was not deep, and it really was slowly healing by itself. Xi Ning was relieved, and took Chu Yiâs hand. âItâs too dangerousâ¦â¦â
The previous world was peaceful and the most dangerous thing was the fight outside the school. This world was completely different. He still didnât know why Chu Yi was transferred with him. This made Xi Ning feel very upset.
Chu Yi hugged him, and his exposed skin touched Xi Ningâs palm, giving him a lot of security. Chu Yi comforted him. âDonât worry, he canât hurt me. Besides Huo Xiu and the devil, I will also deal with the spirit clanâs marriage.â
