Demon’s Diary

tain hall within the palace.

Queen Dong sat on a chair as she coldly looked at a young man that looked quite similar to Xuan Zhi.
He was currently being held by the head by a large man that was over two meters high.
At the same time, the large man was quietly casting a spell while Xuan Zhi, the emperor, sat behind Queen Dong and had an expression of unwillingness.

 “Peng!”

The fingers of the large man loosened and the young man fell to the floor as if he did not have any bones.
With his eyes rolled back, he did not move again.

“Miss, I have already searched and Hu Chunniang met with the seventh prince four years ago.
Not long after, she became a guest.
In his mind, besides the fact that Hu Chunniang had impressive strength and could do any job, he doesn’t have any other clue about her origin.” The large man cupped his hands towards the queen as he said.

“No clue? Isn’t the fact that it was four years ago a good clue? Zhi Er, if I remember correctly, wasn’t four years ago the time for the previous Supervising Disciple of the Heavenly Moon Sect to go back!” When Queen Dong heard this, her eyes shrunk slightly.

“Mother’s meaning is that this girl is really the Supervising Disciple of the Heavenly Moon Sect?” When Xuan Zhi heard this, his expression changed. 

“Yes, from what it seems, there’s a high chance of it being so.
Of course, there’s the chance that this girl appearing was a coincidence.” Queen Dong said with a dark face.

“However, my palace guards said that the cultivator that saved this girl was an powerful cultivator.
Could that person be a supervising disciple of the other sects?” Xuan Zhi asked. 

“I sent someone to look into it.
The other three supervising disciples were under our control that night.
Unless they had a method to make a clone, it definitely can't be one of them.
However, the new Barbarian Ghost disciple is a powerful one.
After giving our Black Spirit Group a vicious slap outside the Small Clear Temple, he hasn’t shown himself.
Big Zheng, has any suspicious cultivators entered Xuanjing in the near two months?” Queen Dong muttered before asking the giant man sharply.

“Miss, recently, the larger factions have been moving their men around quite frequently.
In the past two months, most of the cultivators that have entered Xuanjing are secretive and worthy of suspicion.” The giant man paused before responding with a bitter smile.

“Wasn’t the human cultivator that saved Hu Chunniang a powerful Late Spirit Apostle? With that condition, there shouldn’t be too many that are left.” Queen Dong heard this and responded without hesitation.

“If only Late Spirit Apostles, we can naturally eliminate most people.
However, some people might be faking their cultivation and if I were the new Supervising Disciple for the Barbarian Ghost Sect, I would stay low and not fight with others to reveal my cultivation and without that, most people won’t be able to notice me.” The giant man frowned.

“Yes, that is true and makes it extremely worrisome.
However, this is still a clue and you need to organize men to test the new strong figures in Xuanjing to see if any of them are worthy of suspicion.” Queen Dong paused before saying resolutely. 

“Yes, I will send men to do that immediately.
In addition, the seventh prince is completely useless.
Should I dispose of him?” The giant man bowed before answering.
When his gaze reached the young man lying on the floor, he asked another question.

“Mother, this child is my offspring and should have the bloodline of the Sea Race.
How about we first leave his life.” Xuan Zhi heard this and his face immediately changed.

“Hmph, what, are you going soft? Before you can transform, the bloodline of the Sea Race stay hidden.
Even if you have offspring, they only have pure human bloodline without any relation with the Sea Race.
Big Zheng, take care of this seventh prince.
Say that he made a grave offense and is currently being imprisoned in the inner palace.” Queen Dong coldly glanced at Xuan Zhi before saying coldly.

Hearing this, the giant man agreed with a savage face and picked up the seventh prince before leaving the hall without another sound.

In this process, Xuan Zhi looked at the giant man and his mouth trembled slightly.
But he ultimately wasn’t able to say anything. 

“Mother, the four gates have been locked and will not be open to anyone in the short term.
However, the two Sea Race guards that you sent to chase last time have not come back and they have most likely fallen victim.
Under the current circumstances, should we add some extra men on it.” After Xuan Zhi resumed his calm, he said seriously to Queen Dong.

“Send extra men? That won’t do.
First sealing the four gates and then sending people to search for Hu Chunniang has already raised suspicion.
If we add extra men….
Who is it, come out.” Queen Dong shook her head as her gaze coldened and yelled towards the door. 

“Miss, it’s me!” A shadow flashed at the door and a middled aged woman came in with a smile.
