Chapter 476 What to do when your genius senior brother is determined to die? (42)
From that day on, Zhao Zhao had not left Ruijing Palace for a long time, nor had he seen Si Yi for a long time. He wanted to go out, but Lin Chen, who was guarding outside the door, said that he was not allowed to go out.
This time, he listened to his father especially and kept Zhao Zhao under his watchful eye.
"Ah Chen, there's really no need to make such a fuss. I'm just going out for a walk."
“No,” Lin Chen said righteously, “Have you forgotten what your father said? Demons have appeared in the Sword Sect, and now it’s dangerous everywhere.”
"Ugh!" Zhao Zhao stamped her foot. "I just want to go find my senior brother. Aren't you all worried about me going to him?"
"I'm worried."
Recently, disciples in the Sword Sect have captured several high-level demons, and demonic energy has been detected in many places within the sect.
Therefore, while the sect leader and other elders strengthened the Sword Sect's barrier, they also conducted a thorough search for the demons, causing widespread panic.
Zhao Zhao was also anxious, but he was only worried about Si Yi.
"My God! How could demons appear at this time? Could it be related to Si Yi?!"
I suspect it's very likely.
Since the system had said that, Zhao Zhao became even more worried.
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, but unfortunately, neither his attempts to persuade Lin Chen, the gatekeeper, were successful.
So the next time his father came to Ruijing Palace to see him, Zhao Zhao said all sorts of nice things, acting cute and charming, before his father finally took him out.
"Remember, you can only stay by my side. If you don't behave and run around, you can forget about ever leaving the house again."
As he was leaving, Mu Yu noticed Zhao Zhao's sudden, happy smile and gave her a stern reminder.
The Sword Sect occupies a vast area, but its barrier has somehow been breached, allowing countless demons to slip in.
Zhao Zhao must not be exposed alone until they have completed their investigation.
This was his only son, and Mu Yu was extremely worried about Zhao Zhao's safety. If it weren't for the brat's crying, tantrums, and threats of suicide, he would never have allowed him to go out.
"Yes, Father, I understand, Father."
Zhao Zhao answered honestly, smiling very sweetly.
Mu Yu's gaze softened considerably; as long as Zhao Zhao behaved herself, that was fine.
Zhao Zhao still had the Netherworld Beast stuffed in her arms and Lin Chen in her hands. After they went out, Mu Yu even put his other spirit beast, the Vermilion Bird, on Zhao Zhao's shoulder.
"Where does Father plan to go now?"
Mu Yu affectionately ruffled Zhao Zhao's hair as she leaned closer and said, "Go to Yongqi Palace to find your senior brother."
"If he has already emerged from seclusion, then let's call him to help capture the demons."
Si Yi is highly capable, and his participation will make things twice as effective.
Zhao Zhao's lips twitched, and a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart. He had a feeling that he was taking his father to catch his father cheating.
Moreover, he didn't know Si Yi's condition. What if his red eye relapsed when his father went to see him? That would be terrible.
Zhao Zhao's mind raced: "Senior Brother is still in seclusion. I couldn't find him last time I went to look for him. Let's go find Second Senior Sister instead." He could go find Si Yi by himself, but he couldn't take his sect leader father with him!
Mu Yu's expression was serious: "Your second senior sister has been in seclusion for five years."
"What about the third senior brother?"
"He's unreliable."
Mu Yu sighed and said, "What kind of trick are you up to now, or has something happened to Yi'er?"
As expected of a meticulous sect leader, Zhao Zhao coldly replied, "That's not true!"
"Old man, why do you always make wild guesses about me!"
“Then come with me to find him.”
Mu Yu refused to budge, so Zhao Zhao had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.
Upon arriving at Si Yi's Yongqi Palace, one finds that the area in front of his palace is no longer deserted as before. Instead, several elders and fellow disciples are standing there, and Si Yi, dressed in white, is chatting with them with a smile on his face.
Mu Yu stepped forward with a cold face and asked, "What happened?"
"Sect Leader," everyone bowed, and then Si Yi took the initiative to explain, "The Third Elder said that she discovered demonic energy within the boundaries of my palace."
The Third Elder nodded, and she recounted to Mu Yu the cause and effect of discovering the demonic energy in great detail, providing ample reason to suspect Si Yi.
Zhao Zhao, hiding behind Mu Yu, was sweating profusely as she listened. She secretly looked up at Si Yi and saw that he was still smiling at her.
I'm speechless. It's like the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuchs are.
Mu Yu said, "Yi'er, may we go in and investigate?" It wasn't that he doubted Si Yi; after all, Si Yi was upright, gentle, and polite, and was deeply trusted by the Sword Sect.
She was just worried that the cunning demons were hiding in some corner, perhaps even blinding Si Yi.
Si Yi indicated that he had no objection. He smiled gently and raised his hand to say inside, "Please."
And so the group entered his palace.
Zhao Zhao deliberately walked at the back. He winked at Si Yi, who was standing at the door, and immediately Mu Yu urged from the front: "You unfilial son! Hurry up!"
"Coming!" he replied, then quickly turned to Si Yi and asked, "Is everything alright?" His eyelids were practically twitching.
Si Yi put on a puzzled look and said with a wicked smile, "Junior brother, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
"What's wrong with your eyes? Are they acting up?"
Zhao Zhao rolled her eyes: "Keep pretending!" You're such a good actor, I hope you can fool everyone.
"Rebellious son!!!"
"coming!!!"
Zhao Zhao was startled and quickly ran back to Mu Yu's side. As soon as she stood still, her ear was grabbed by a big hand.
"Dad! Daddy! Daddy!"
"Humph!"
Mu Yu released his ear and said irritably, "Follow me every step of the way."
