    String s = objService1.HelloWorld();   //Convert XML output into String

You should use XDocument. XDocument is better than XMLDocument. It is very efficient, simple and easy to use.

Your code : 

webservice.Service1 objService1 = new webservice.Service1();
    String s = objService1.HelloWorld();   //Convert XML output into String   
    XmlDocument xd = new XmlDocument();
    xd.LoadXml(s);

Solution:

XDocument xd = XDocument.Parse(s);

      XmlDocument xd = new XmlDocument();
      xd.LoadXml("<root>123</root>");

It works. You should print the s value and check it is a valid xml string.
