At this time, Xi Ning finally heard the sound of the system.
âMaster!â The system said with a lively tone, âIâm back!â
Before Xi Ning could ask it, the system said, âI compared the data of Song Zhou from the previous world with that low-class devil of this world. The percentage of similarity between them is as high as 95%, so it can be confirmed that they are the same person. As for why this happens, Iâm still looking for the reason, butâ¦â¦â
With a soft âclangâ sound, Xi Ning accidentally knocked over the wine glass on the table, and accidentally spilled some wine on the sleeve of his shirt. He hurriedly placed the glass back and replied, âReally?â
Xi Ning had thought about it countless times in the past two days. His instincts said that they were probably the same person, but he had also denied his guess and wanted to hear confirmation from the system.
And now when Xi Ning heard the answer from the system, he was relieved and the grievances and helplessness that he felt surged forth.
Chu Yi was indeed Song Zhou. He had transferred with him and he was still the antidote which can relieve his illness, but he had no memory of the previous world.
The system finally got rid of the need to check the database. It felt very refreshed and quickly returned to itâs working state, checking the surrounding environment. âEh, master, you are attending a banquet? Let me seeâ¦â¦â
Xi Ning got up and went straight out of the hall before the Immortal Emperor came. The servant who was serving at the door saw him leave and asked. âYour Royal Highness, did you not want to wait for the Immortal Emperor?â
Xi Ning did not look back and said. âMy clothes are stained with alcohol, so I will go back and change.â
He walked quickly across the corridor, but was stopped by someone again.
Huo Xiu also came out of the hall, and crossed his arms in the middle of the corridor. âThe banquet hasnât started yet, why is Your Royal Highness so eagerly wanting to leave?â
Xi Ning simply said, âI have something else to do.â
He reluctantly slowed down his tone, and didnât want to have any conflict with Huo Xiu now. âGeneral Huo, go back quickly since you canât be absent from the banquet.â
âAre you feeling unwell, Your Royal Highness?â Huo Xiu smelled some medicine scent on Xi Ning. âWhere did Your Royal Highness get injured?â
Itâs none of your business, right? Xi Ning took a deep breath and said calmly, âI didnât have any injuries. I really have something to do, so I wonât chat anymore with General Huo.â
Xi Ning passed by Huo Xiu directly, but Huo Xiu grabbed his wrist. âWhat makes you in such a hurry? I donât see Your Royal Highness bring any subordinates along with you. How about I send you backâ¦â¦â
When Huo Xiu touched the skin of Xi Ningâs wrist, Xi Ning suddenly felt very disgusted, and he lifted his hand and slammed Huo Xiu away.
Xi Ning didnât look very good, he tidied up his sleeves. âNo need.â
Xi Ning continued to walk forward, Huo Xiu no longer stopped him, and just leaned on the stone pillar while looking at Xi Ningâs back.
The man in black robe that was seen in the hall walked behind Huo Xiu and said, âIs heâ¦â¦ The seventh prince?â
He also saw Xi Ning a moment ago, and he smiled at this moment. âHe is the son of the Immortal Emperor. The general will have to work hard to get him.â
Huo Xiu retracted his gaze and turned back to the hall. âThe Immortal Emperorâs sonâ¦â¦ so what?â
On Xi Ningâs way back, the system had found out that the purpose of this banquet was to build connections through marriages with the spirit clan.
âItâs better that the master left.â The system had a lingering fear. âIf any spirit is attracted to the master, it will be troublesome if they want to marry the master.â
In this world, men could also get married, especially among spirits and devils.
Xi Ning replied perfunctorily. He just wanted to find Chu Yi now.
After returning to his palace, Xi Ning couldnât find Chu Yi, and asked the little spirit in the yard and he said that he had only seen Chu Yi at noon today, but he didnât know where Chu Yi was.
Xi Ning felt very anxious, and the wrist that Huo Xiu had touched just now felt very uncomfortable. He went back to his room and condensed some water using his spiritual power and cleaned it several times until his sleeve was wet and his wrist turned red because of all the rubbing.
The system saw that Xi Ningâs condition was not right, and after asking him, it understood what happened and explained, âThe illness of the master in this world is skin hunger. Because of the extra instruction that the masterâs illness can be relieved, the master may feel repelled by the touch of any person other than the antidote. Ah, by the way master, do you know who is the antidote in this world right now?â
Xi Ning felt a little better, and sat in a chair. âWho else can it be?â
The system is very slow in understanding, and it took a while for it to know what Xi Ning meant, and said happily. âThatâs great! Then the master doesnât have to bother to find the antidote againâ¦â¦â
Xi Ning felt speechless. He wanted to ask Uncle Rong if he knew where Chu Yi was. A familiar figure suddenly appeared at the door.
The lights were on in the bedroom, and Xi Ning didnât close the door when he came in. Chu Yi saw the person sitting inside at first glance, Xi Ning was holding his wrist and staring at him in a daze.
Chu Yi walked in and whispered, âI heard from them that Your Royal Highness is looking for me?â
When the person he wanted to see was in front of him, Xi Ning suddenly didnât know what to say, he lowered his head and let out a âyeahâ.
Chu Yi soon discovered that there were red marks on Xi Ningâs wrist, his sleeves and shirt were also wet, and there was a vague smell of alcohol.
He knew that Xi Ning was going to a banquet tonight, but he didnât think that he would come back so soon, and even in a state like this. Could it be that he was bullied?
