The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife
chapter-1589

Outside the void, Hexi and Nangong Yu were relaxing in the yard of Shengde Hall in Miracle Healer City, basking in the sun.

The two did not talk or cultivate but enjoyed this rare quiet moment.

Nangong Yu leaned on Hexi’s lap, and Hexi’s hand gently rested on his head.

Those fair and slender fingers, with well-proportioned joints, were like meticulously carved suet jade. They shimmered under the bask of sunlight.

The gentle fingers massaged Nangong Yu’s temples while pure water spiritual power seeped in through the fingertips, gradually aligning his meridians and spiritual power.

The once turbulent spiritual energy seemed to be soothed, sighing in contentment, and then became as docile as a little lamb.

A contented and blissful smile appeared on Nangong Yu’s face, wishing that this moment could last forever.

Unfortunately, that was impossible.

Qing Long quickly came in to report, “Master, Xuan Wu is seeking an audience.”

Xuan Wu bowed and said, “I’ve given the clues found at the Seven Stars Trapping Formation to the old lady. She asked me to tell you that she will definitely root out the culprits behind this. Moreover, the Nangong Family has also started questioning some suspects in the Miracle Healer Academy.”

Xuan Wu reported the names and identities of the suspects who were interrogated. Nangong Yu smiled and nodded, “You just need to assist Grandma and let Grandma take the lead in the investigation.”

Since Old Lady Nangong wished to make amends with Xi Yue, he certainly wouldn’t stand in the way. He would be delighted if Xi Yue could get along well with his grandmother.

Xuan Wu bowed in response and was about to leave.

However, Nangong Yu suddenly said in a deep voice, “Besides assisting Grandma, I want you to secretly investigate this matter as well, especially regarding those from the Nangong Family involved in this matter. But, don’t alert anyone, especially don’t let my grandmother know.”

Xuan Wu paused momentarily but didn’t ask any further questions. He bowed again in acknowledgment before quickly departing.

Hexi turned to look at him and raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed to be a faint smile, yet there was a hint of doubt.

Nangong Yu adored her expression deeply. He leaned down, kissed her forehead gently, and whispered, “My grandmother is getting on in years; there might be oversights in her investigation.”

He didn’t want to doubt Old Lady Nangong, but he had to be cautious.

“When it comes to your safety, I won’t tolerate even the slightest oversight. Xi’er, if anything were to happen to you, I can’t imagine what I might do.”

A flash of fiery red glinted in Nangong Yu’s eyes, and the aura around him seemed to turn almost demonic.

Standing not far away, Qing Long trembled all over. A trace of instinctive fear flashed in his eyes.

Ever since Nangong Yu suppressed the cold poison in his body in the magical beast forest, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Soul Splitting later stage. However, it seemed as if a malicious energy had taken root within him. This energy would surface whenever he became emotionally stirred, making him act out of character.

Hexi hugged him gently and said softly, “Me too! Nangong Yu, you have to protect me, but also protect yourself.”

Nangong Yu, I don’t know what to do if something happens to you.

Deep in love, Nangong Yu lowered his head and gently kissed her inviting lips. Qing Long left tacitly. The temperature in the air became warm and sultry little by little.
