CHAPTER 1173: CHAPTER 1173: BEATING AROUND THE BUSH

Then Hua XiYi pretended to kick Luo yang, but Luo yang had already stepped back two steps.

The two exchanged glances and laughed, everything was understood without words.

"Sister Hua, let me check your pulse."

Saying this, Luo yang walked over again.

Hua XiYi pretended to want to kick Luo yang again, seeing him afraid, she laughed.

Checking her pulse was just an excuse.

Coming here, Luo yang just wanted to find out if Hua XiYi knew anyone from Shi Sheng Palace.

According to what he knew, these Major Powers were all connected.

In other words, Hua XiYi was very likely to know people from Shi Sheng Palace.

But asking her to introduce someone was probably unrealistic.

After all, Luo yang wasn’t from a major sect, and Hua XiYi wouldn’t randomly introduce him to Shi Sheng Palace.

So, Luo yang didn’t know how to ask her for help.

If he said too much, it would arouse her suspicion.

If she found out he had connections with Skull Fortress, she might lose her temper on the spot.

"Hehe, no need for you. Baby is fine," Hua XiYi said casually.

"Sister Hua, I’m a professional. Let me check your pulse. You won’t lose anything," Luo yang persuaded.

For a practitioner, they generally have an understanding of their condition.

Hua XiYi, though not proficient in medicine, knew her body was not in major trouble.

Seeing him speak sincerely, she let him check her pulse.

While diagnosing, Luo yang smiled and said, "Sister Hua, I really have something to tell you."

She didn’t respond, just waited for him to continue.

For the moment, he couldn’t find a way to bring up Shi Sheng Palace.

Asking directly would be too abrupt.

After all, Luo yang had no connections with the people of Shi Sheng Palace.

With a quick thought, he figured out how to start.

Seeing Luo yang say a sentence, then nothing for quite a while, Hua XiYi became curious.

"Hehe, what do you mean? You said you had something to say," she urged.

At this point, he had to talk about something else first.

Later, he’d slowly bring up Shi Sheng Palace, only this way would it not arouse her suspicion easily.

"Sister Hua, listen to me. Let’s talk about the Blood Devil," Luo yang continued to check her pulse and said.

"Hehe, just say it already! You promised Baby you’d help me find the Blood Devil. If you change your mind, Baby won’t let you get away with it."

As she spoke, Hua XiYi looked over coldly.

The time was right, Luo yang said, "Sister Hua, getting the Blood Devil is very challenging."

Suddenly talking like this, Hua XiYi couldn’t understand.

"Hehe, do you really need to say that? What’s the real issue?" Hua XiYi said.

"Sister Hua, many people from different factions have shown up. I heard Shi Sheng Palace is also interested in the Blood Devil, how come we haven’t seen them? We need to be careful. Otherwise, it might be snatched by others before we get it," Luo yang brought up the main point.

Seeing his question, Hua XiYi didn’t respond immediately.

After a while, she finally said, "Hehe, don’t care about them!"

From her tone, she likely knew people from Shi Sheng Palace.

"Sister Hua, are people from Shi Sheng Palace here too?" Luo yang asked again.

"Hehe, why are you interested in the people from Shi Sheng Palace?" Hua XiYi became wary.

Despite appearances, Hua XiYi was actually very meticulous.

Luo yang smiled and said, "I promised you I’d help you get the Blood Devil. Whoever is interested in the Blood Devil interests me too."

Hearing this, the suspicion in Hua XiYi’s eyes lessened.

"Hehe, is that really the case?" She said with a slight smirk.

"Sister Hua, I just want to help you get the Blood Devil. If there’s another competitor in the dark, we need to be careful, or else we might fail," Luo yang said seriously.

"Hehe! You’re smarter than I thought."

Hua XiYi said.
