After Su He left Huo Yuxi's side, Huo Yu Huang also went back. Since Su He could not escape anymore, he gave up and returned obediently.

Su He thought about how Huo Yuxi liked to burn incense, and how she was able to get on good terms with Huo Yuxi. Then, she thought about the secret book on smoking incense that Ma Feng Lan had given her.

Maybe he could curry favor with Huo Yuxi because of this. Thinking like this, Su He did this as she took out the incense manual that she had been holding in, and started to carefully study it.

However, Su He was still in the Pigeon Room, so he could only study it there. After Huo Yuxi found out about it, Su He had even more conveniently brought over the ingredients.

Now that the issue with the ingredients had been resolved, she was naturally more focused on researching them. Other than her wanting to leave, she also wanted to create a good incense for Huo Yuxi.

Everyday, Su He would study the incense and study the materials back and forth. He rarely came here, and after that, he might have forgotten about it, but no one came to disturb her anymore.

However, accidents always happened. For example, one day, all of Emperor Huoyu's pigeons would die. The cause of their death was unknown.

After the Jade Emperor found out about this, he was extremely angry, so he ordered everyone to investigate this matter. At the start, no one had any clue.

There was no problem with the water and fodder, and the temperature of the pigeon room was more suitable. Moreover, such a large scale death was unprecedented, and when the Jade Emperor Huo received the news, he immediately became angry in his room, ”They are all a bunch of trash. We can't even find out the reason.”

”Your subordinate was incompetent and did not discover any problems.” The people below knelt on the ground to report to Emperor Huoyu, but their bodies were trembling.

”You didn't find anything wrong with it?” Hearing this, Emperor Huoyu was enraged, ”Then you mean there's no problem?”

”That's not what I meant.” Hearing Huo Yu Huang's words, the people kneeling on the ground lowered their heads even more.

”If there really are no problems, then how could they all die? If we can't find out the reason, then it's all because of you.” Emperor Huoyu immediately started to pressure the people below him.

”Yes.” That person's forehead was covered in sweat, but he didn't dare to say anything else. He quickly retreated. When he walked out of the door, that person felt that his legs were going to go soft. Only after he came out did he heave a sigh of relief.

With the attitude of the higher-ups, the investigation into this matter had been greatly strengthened. No one dared to underestimate this matter.

When Su He saw that all the pigeons in the pigeon room had all died that day, she was also a little confused, and then, she did not manage to investigate the reason clearly. Su He also came to a realization, she had been researching on the incense the entire time, and it was also in this very pigeon room.

By the time Su He reacted, the others had already reacted. Someone had gone to report to Emperor Huo Yu about the matter of Su He staying in the pigeon room to study on the incense.

In the end, Su He still did not hide it from them, and those people immediately found the materials needed to study the incense.

Su He was brought directly to the front of the Huo Yuhuang; the moment she saw Su He, she was enraged.

”I let you stay in the pigeon room because I want you to do your job properly. I want you to take care of those pigeons. Yet, you smoked them all to death.” Huo Yuhuang stood in front of Su He and talked for a long time, until the end, when he himself became extremely angry, he almost smashed Su He with something.
