"But," Wei Xiyue didn't let the topic go in the direction that Huo Lingxiao wanted, but returned to the topic, "In any case, the most important thing for us now is to find out the forces behind those people and the reasons why they are targeting us. "

Huo Lingxiao also nodded lightly when he heard this, "I know, so this is also the reason why I will send Leng Yue to investigate." "

"If that's the case, the progress of our separate investigation won't be much faster, it's better for us to work together to investigate, and the clues of both sides will be shared, so that the investigation will be faster." Wei Xiyue proposed.

Huo Lingxiao's eyes lit up when he heard this, he was worried that there was no reason to see Wei Xiyue often, but he didn't expect Wei Xiyue to put forward the idea of joining forces, in this way, whether it was public or private, it would be beneficial to him.

So Huo Lingxiao hurriedly agreed, "This is naturally the best, I was worried that you were unwilling to let me intervene in this matter, so I didn't tell you about the matter I asked Leng Qi to investigate." Now, if we can join forces, I believe that the investigation of who is behind it is just around the corner. "

Huo Lingxiao said as he spoke, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up, even Wei Xiyue was infected by his good mood, and his voice couldn't help but be dyed with some smiles.

"How can it be so simple, now it's just about to join forces, you think of finding out who is behind the scenes, if you really find out the mastermind so quickly, what should you do?" Wei Xiyue raised her eyebrows, looked at Huo Lingxiao and asked.

Huo Lingxiao didn't think about it, so he said with a smile, "Do you need to talk about this?" Naturally, it is good to take revenge on them. "

Hearing Huo Lingxiao say this, Wei Xiyue didn't know what she thought, her eyebrows twisted, and the atmosphere that was still a little brisk suddenly stagnated.

Seeing Wei Xiyue like this, Huo Lingxiao couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" Am I saying something wrong?"

Wei Xiyue shook her head, her brows barely relaxed, "It's not for this reason, I'm just suddenly thinking about the identity of those behind the scenes." They hide so tightly that both the people under them and the means of attack can glimpse their unusualness, if we really find them, only to find out that they are people we can't move at all, then what should we do?"

Hearing Wei Xiyue say this, Huo Lingxiao wanted to say with a smile, how can there be people in this world that we can't move. But before he could say anything, he thought of a possibility, and his face instantly became unsightly.

The atmosphere was so stagnant that both of them couldn't breathe for a while, and the two of them looked out the window in unison, barely breathing a sigh of relief, and Huo Lingxiao spoke up.

"If it really is, it probably ...... I don't know what to do," Huo Lingxiao paused at this point, and then said, "Anyway, find them out first, and we'll look at the rest." "

Wei Xiyue nodded, "That's what I said." "

After that, the two of them stopped talking about this heavy topic, and instead analyzed what was happening in the Misty Forest.

"Do you remember that when we were about to force ourselves out of the Misty Forest, we were conspired against, and at that time, it was thanks to your desperate efforts to protect me, otherwise I would definitely not be able to get out easily." Wei Xiyue looked at Huo Lingxiao and said, "At that time, I thought that those people who were plotting against us were those unknown people, but now that I think about it, it shouldn't be." "

Huo Lingxiao also agreed, "Yes, I have noticed that those people should have been sent by Wen Ke, and it should have been her secret guards who eavesdropped on our plans in advance, so they appeared so coincidentally and successfully plotted against us." I remember that we had fallen into a fantasy and encountered the Heartless Tree. "

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere between the two became strange, and it seemed that even the air circulating between the two of them became thicker, and people couldn't help but forget about breathing.

It wasn't until Wei Xiyue coughed lightly that this atmosphere was broken, but ambiguity was still surging between them.

"yes, I didn't expect you to know me so well," I didn't expect, I know everything about you. Wei Xiyue didn't say this, but her face couldn't help but be dyed a little red.

"But fortunately, we passed the test of the Heartless Tree, and we were able to get out of the illusion smoothly." Wei Xiyue didn't look at Huo Lingxiao again, but turned her face away, afraid that he would find the slight burning of her cheeks.

Huo Lingxiao didn't notice Wei Xiyue's abnormality, because he himself felt red and dry because he remembered the things in the illusion.

At this moment, the door of the box was suddenly pushed open, and a person broke in.

"Xiyue, Wei Feiyue and Lin Shanshan have fought!" The person who came to say this was still panting, which shows how anxious she was when she came.

Wei Xiyue and Huo Lingxiao looked at the person who came when they heard this, only to realize that the person was actually Wei Qingxue.

Wei Qingxue panted and wanted to walk to Wei Xiyue's side, only to find that in addition to Wei Xiyue, there was Huo Lingxiao in the box, and now she was sweating like rain, and her misdemeanor also fell into Huo Lingxiao's eyes, she was embarrassed for a while, and even her actions became restrained.

"I ...... Am I interrupting your conversation? That, Xiyue, you go back early, I'll go first! Wei Qingxue was a little flustered, and hurriedly left after saying a casual word.

Huo Lingxiao and Wei Xiyue glanced at each other inexplicably when they saw Wei Qingxue's appearance of coming and going like the wind, but they didn't know why Wei Qingxue acted like this.

"I kind of want to go and see how Wei Feiyue and Lin Shanshan fought." Wei Xiyue said suddenly. "I've been out of the academy long enough, and it's time to go back."

Huo Lingxiao heard Wei Xiyue say this, and it was not good to stop her again, although he still wanted to stay with Wei Xiyue for a while, he could only say helplessly, "Then you should go back early." "

Wei Xiyue didn't stay long, and left me directly. Huo Lingxiao looked at Wei Xiyue's back, although he was a little angry, he also knew that what he was hoping for was still too early.

After sitting for a while, Huo Lingxiao also left, here, returned to his own mansion, and summoned Leng Qi.

Although Leng Qi didn't know what Huo Lingxiao was looking for him, he still rushed back as quickly as possible, but he didn't expect Huo Lingxiao's first words to him to make him stunned.

"I've already agreed with Wei Xiyue, you and Guiyue will join forces to investigate the background of those killers."

As soon as he heard Huo Lingxiao's words, Leng Qi suddenly raised his head that had been hanging down, but in the end, Leng Qi still didn't say anything and took the order.

Huo Zeshen arrived at Huo Lingxiao's mansion not long after Leng Qi left, looking full of resentment.

Huo Lingxiao rarely saw him like this, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you, is something happening to the Queen Mother?"

The two words of the Queen Mother just hit the point of Huo Zeshen's dissatisfaction, "Third brother, can you stop talking about the Queen Mother, I became what I am now because of the Queen Mother." "

Hearing Huo Zeshen say this, Huo Lingxiao became even more curious, and asked again, "Did the Queen Mother do anything?" Why don't you talk about it?"

Huo Zeshen looked at Huo Lingxiao, lifted it up in one breath, and finally spit it out heavily, "It's nothing, it's just that the Queen Mother is really ......"

Huo Zeshen thought about it for a long time, but didn't come up with a suitable word, "...... In short, she didn't let me do anything, and she kept the rules of the palace every day. I really don't dare to think that life should be lived like this when life is bound by those rules. Anyway, I can't stay with her anymore!"

Huo Lingxiao thought it was a big deal, but he didn't expect it to be these, so he couldn't help laughing and comforted Huo Zeshen, "It's nothing, the Queen Mother has lived in the palace for so many years, and she is naturally used to the rules of the palace, and there is nothing wrong with it." "

"But I can't stand it! She still has to make me follow those rules, I really can't stand it!" Huo Zeshen said irritably.

"The Queen Mother is also for your good, the palace is a place with strict rules, there is always nothing wrong with abiding by the rules, if you really can't stand it, you can also go out of the palace for a walk." Huo Lingxiao said.

It's just that his words only deepened Huo Zeshen's irritability, but fortunately, Huo Zeshen was not the kind of willful person, so he reluctantly suppressed his irritability and just sat on the stool and didn't speak.

It's just that Huo Zeshen's resentment is so heavy that it is about to materialize, just sitting there Huo Lingxiao can see the unhappiness in his heart, and he can't help but persuade again, "These dissatisfaction of yours, just talk about it in front of me, or don't show it in front of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is an elder after all, and it is normal that some can't be yours, you just need to accept it." "

Huo Zeshen waved his hand, "Okay, okay, I'm measured." It's just that...... What happened to Wei Xiyue's side, I heard that she came out of the misty forest, and the situation is still quite dangerous. "

Huo Lingxiao thought about what was going on in the misty forest for a long time before he said, "It's quite dangerous." "

As soon as Huo Zeshen heard Huo Lingxiao say this, he immediately turned into a worried look, "Then how is Wei Xiyue, she is not injured, right?" And you, third brother, how is the situation?"

In fact, in the Misty Forest, Huo Lingxiao and Wei Xiyue suffered a lot of serious injuries, but there was no need to bring these to Huo Zeshen and say that Huo Lingxiao was just perfunctory, "It's okay, it's not a big deal." "

Huo Zeshen breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, what happened to you in the Misty Forest, is there anything particularly exciting?" Third brother, can you tell me about it?"

As soon as he said this, Huo Lingxiao thought of the closeness of himself and Wei Xiyue in the cave, as well as the test of the Heartless Tree in the illusion...... It's just that none of these are suitable to say in front of Huo Zeshen.

It was Huo Lingxiao who simply mentioned what happened to them in the Misty Forest, and did not go into depth.

But Huo Zeshen was dissatisfied again, "No, third brother, you and Wei Xiyue are too unrighteous!" Why don't you call me for such a thing?"

Huo Lingxiao looked at Huo Zeshen, and his mood could only be interpreted by two words, speechless.
