Faced with Si Luo's question, Ning Jie's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
Although he also wanted to know the whereabouts of He Xi, after all, the two of them had an in-depth and passionate communication. After all, as one of the vast number of Blue Star travelers, it was necessary for him to create the image of a responsible and good man!
We can't bring shame to the gentlemen of Blue Star!
But things are different now.
Such a big thing happened in Miaoyin Sect, and everyone was investigating Hexi's whereabouts. If he took the initiative to reveal that he had seen Hexi, it might cause some unnecessary trouble.
Of course, Ning Jie didn’t care much about some troubles. The important thing was that what happened between him and He Xi must not be discovered!
At least not now!
After all, now that many fish in the fish pond have gathered in Miaoyin Sect, a situation of unknown number of forces has been formed.
This is truly a critical moment for survival!
No more trouble must happen!
Therefore, Ning Jie could only say against his will:
"No, didn't you ask me to go to Baicao Garden yesterday evening? I went there, but when I got there I found no one there, so I came back straight away. I didn't expect something like this to happen afterwards!"
Si Luo frowned slightly, still a little unconvinced, and asked:
"Really?"
Ning Jie's face suddenly became serious, and he pretended to be a little angry and said:
"Of course it's true! What? You don't believe me? Every time I leave the sect, I promise to buy you candied haws. And you tell me when I broke my promise?"
Seeing Ning Jie's slightly angry look, Si Luo waved his hands repeatedly and said:
“No! It’s not!
I don’t believe in my brother, but this is just too strange, I…I can’t figure it out…”
Si Luo was a little flustered. She didn't know if Senior Sister Hexi's sudden disappearance was caused by her?
At the same time, she also chose to believe in Ning Jie in her heart.
Just as Ning Jie said, Ning Jie never broke his promise to her and never deceived her.
And when she came to Baicao Garden in person yesterday, she did not see anyone.
So where did Senior Sister Hexi go?
For a moment, Si Luo really wanted to tell Senior Sister Hexi what she and Senior Sister Hexi had planned to do yesterday, so as to provide some clues, but she felt embarrassed with so many people present.
Ning Jie looked at Si Luo's aggrieved expression and roughly guessed what she was thinking.
He walked over and gently touched the back of Si Luo's head, and said softly:
"Okay, if you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it. Senior Sister Hexi will be fine!"
Of course, he said this not only to appease Si Luo, but also because Ning Jie felt from the bottom of his heart that He Xi should be fine.
After all, he already knew that Hexi was actually a demon.
He suddenly disappeared at this moment, perhaps because he was summoned by the demon clan, or because of something that happened between the two of them.
As for the accident?
Ning Jie, on the contrary, thought it was impossible. A big monster like Hexi would generally not get into trouble.
At this moment, the somewhat helpless Si Luo turned around and threw himself into Ning Jie's arms, hugged Ning Jie, and murmured:
"Brother Ning, you must help me find Senior Sister Hexi, okay?"
This was the first time that Si Luo showed his soft side in front of Ning Jie, which moved Ning Jie so much that he even wanted to expose the white lies he had just told.
But in the end he still held back, patted Si Luo's back gently, and said decisively:
"Don't worry! I promise I will help you find her!"
This is not only Ning Jie's promise to Si Luo, but also a promise to himself!
How could he let the woman he had decided to take responsibility for get away so easily?
So what if it’s a demon?
He had conquered the demon clan leader Kong Huanyi once in his previous life, so he didn't mind conquering her again in this life!
When the time comes, he will take out the small whip. He doesn't believe that Kong Huanyi will not send Hexi out obediently!
After comforting Si Luo, Ning Jie sent Si Luo to the presence of Sect Master Si Yin.
now.
Sect Master Si Yin was still surveying the Baicao Garden.
She used her spiritual power to clear away the ashes of the cabin and found nothing suspicious.
After walking around the cabin a few more times, he stopped in front of a patch of flattened spiritual grass.
After observing for a while, a hint of doubt appeared on Sect Master Si Yin's face.
Doesn’t this spiritual herb look like it was blown down by the wind?
It seems like... it was artificially suppressed!
With doubts in his heart, Sect Master Si Yin slowly squatted down, picked up some fallen spiritual herbs, and for some unknown reason put them in front of his nose and sniffed them.
This sniff made her expression change suddenly!
This smell...
Something is wrong!
Ning Jie was so shocked when he suddenly saw this scene!
Oh shit!
I hurriedly finished the battle with Hexi yesterday and forgot to clean up the battlefield!
On the battlefield, there is the lingering aura of the two people!
What would happen if Sect Master Si Yin found out about this?
It wasn't until he saw Sect Master Si Yin sniffing the spiritual grass that Ning Jie felt numb...
It’s over!
Sure enough, after Sect Master Si Yin slowly stood up, he immediately looked at Ning Jie. After all, Ning Jie was usually the only male disciple who came to Baicao Garden!
What is this taste that speaks for itself, except for him?
Who else!
Looking at the look in Sect Leader Si Yin's eyes, Ning Jie had already guessed that a smart woman like Sect Leader Si Yin must have suspected him!
But for now, he could only bite the bullet and said with a smile:
"Sect Master, Senior Sister Hexi is missing, and Si Luo is not in a good mood. But don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Si Luo!"
