Fire Concubine: Demon Lord, too presumptuous!

Chapter 229 Fighting for the Deer 20
"You just come out like this, aren't you afraid that people from the imperial capital will catch you?" Ji Xuanshu handed her a wine glass.

Di Jiu stopped the wine glass, the cap of the cloak covered half of her black hair, two strands of gray-white hair fluttered in front of her forehead, her eye makeup was coquettish, and she squinted slightly, showing a special taste.

She smiled nonchalantly: "Catch it if you have the ability."

Ji Xuanshu shook his head with a smile, glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw the hideous scar on the woman's neck, and part of it was hidden in the placket. It was not difficult to see that the scar was really deep.

Di Jiu raised his eyes and asked, "Why are you alone today?"

Hearing this, Ji Xuanshu realized that she was asking about Yu Jiuge, laughed at himself, and said, "He's busy, he has things to do near the end of the year, unlike me, I'm alone, and the whole family is not hungry when I eat alone."

Suddenly, Di Jiu's eyes darkened, "This sneaky thing is getting more and more presumptuous."

In an alley outside the restaurant, two sneaks grabbed a young woman and went in. The woman was struggling in the air in the eyes of others, but in fact there were sneaks carrying her.

Ji Xuanshu raised his eyebrows with interest: "Aren't you going to help?"

Di Jiu pursed his thin lips, took a sip of wine, and said in a low voice, "Other people's lives have nothing to do with me."

"Well said, you are similar to me. A few days ago, the Demon Realm issued a reward order, saying that you can save the Prince of the Demon Realm. I didn't pay any attention to it."

Di Jiu tightly clenched the wine glass with his fingers: "Save who?"

"The Crown Prince of the Demon Realm." Ji Xuanshu's gaze remained on her face, "I heard that the Crown Prince of the Demon Realm was injured by some kind of fire, and he hasn't woken up yet. His life or death is uncertain."

Di Jiu's eyes fell on the wine glass, she was silent for a while, raised her glass and drank it down, "I still have something to do, so I will leave first."

After the words fell, her figure disappeared into the restaurant at an extremely fast speed, which surprised Ji Xuanshu.

"This speed..."

As soon as he returned to Jiuxuan's mansion, Le Ji said that Li Chen was here.

Di Jiu sat on the wheelchair and held a Mrs. Tang in his hand, looking at Li Chen and Heng Rong who hurried in through the door.

She said sarcastically, "You won't even knock on the door?"

The cold wind came in, blowing sparks from the charcoal fire in the stove, Di Jiu waved his palm slightly, and the door closed with a bang.

"Puff-"

Li Chen knelt down suddenly, his eyes were full of urgency, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.

"Sister-in-law, I beg you to save my elder brother."

Di Jiu was not at all surprised by his behavior, she was still comfortably leaning on the wheelchair, with a smile on her face, looking at Li Chen who was kneeling there from the corner of her eye.

"why?"

Li Chen choked, his anxious eyes turned red: "My elder brother can't stand the red lotus fire at all, sister-in-law, the fire is burning in my elder brother's stomach, and my father tried his best to prevent the fire from spreading. Even the Heavenly Soul Water has no effect on the flames. My elder brother has been in a coma for half a month. If the fire is not extinguished, my elder brother will be burned to death. Sister-in-law, I beg you, I will kowtow to you, please help My big brother!"

"His Royal Highness, I don't think you can't see Li Yuan's heart for you these past few years. The reason why he protects Xueying is also out of his promise to his loyal ministers and brothers. Human life is at stake now..."

Di Jiu raised his hand suddenly and waved: "Go back."

In fact, she didn't know why Li Yuan was injured, but it must have happened in her missing hour's memory, and she should have done it.

But she wasn't curious, and she didn't care.

"Sister-in-law, you..."

Di Jiu laughed softly: "I'm really sorry, I can't save it either, I can only set fires, not put them out."
