To save all living beings, the villainous Demon Lord's plan to redeem himself is urgent.
Song Xiwei abandons her feminine guise and transforms into a handsome young man, infiltrating the ...
Meanwhile, Song Xiwei listened to the chatter of those people, each saying their own thing, all of which boiled down to her killing someone and demanding that she pay with her life.
Song Xiwei lazily picked at her ear while yawning.
"You've been saying so much, but it's always the same few sentences over and over again. Can't you come up with any fresh words?"
"You!! Don't think you can get away with this just because the Demon Lord favors you! The Demon Lord can't care about you right now!"
One of them shouted first, and the others echoed, when Song Xiwei teleported and grabbed the person mingling in the crowd by the collar.
"What are you doing! Let go of me!" The man was grabbed by the collar, looking flustered, but his eyes were full of provocation.
Song Xi glanced at the people around her a few times, then suddenly asked them, "Are you familiar with this person?"
As soon as Song Xiwei spoke, everyone stared at the person whose collar she had grabbed. "This person does look very unfamiliar..."
"Take a good look. Does anyone recognize him? What's his name? What does he do in the Demon Realm? Friends and family should be able to name him, right? No rush, take your time to think about who he is." Song Xiwei said unhurriedly, looking like she was watching a show.
The man was being grabbed by the collar, but his eyes were darting around, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to incite others.
But his motives were too obvious, so Song Xiwei dislocated one of his arms before he could take any action.
"I advise you to behave yourself. Before people recognize whether you are a member of the demon race or not, you'd better not make any rash moves. Otherwise, it won't be as simple as just breaking off one of your arms. I have a thousand ways to make you suffer unbearable pain."
Song Xiwei said these words with a smile, yet they inexplicably sent chills down one's spine.
Those familiar with the Demon Lord, seeing Song Xiwei's expression, actually felt that if Song Xiwei got serious, she might be just as frightening as the Demon Lord.
The time it takes for an incense stick to burn is over just like that.
The crowd looked at each other, and not a single person recognized who the person was.
Song Xiwei originally intended to expose this discord in front of everyone.
The Demon Clan seems to have stabilized in the past two years, but it is beset by internal and external troubles. If there were no ambitious and treacherous people within the clan, it would not have been so easy for a gap to slip in.
"Let's confirm one last time, is it really true that no one recognizes him? I'll count to three, and if no one still recognizes him, I'll snap his neck on the spot." Song Xi's smile vanished. At this moment, she seemed to be possessed by a god of death, her aura so powerful that it made people tremble with fear.
Everyone almost forgot their earlier condemnation of Song Xiwei and their demand that she pay with her life.
At this moment, everyone was somewhat bewildered by the unidentified person.
"three!"
"two!"
"Wait!" The one who spoke was an old face from the demon race.
"He is my newly accepted disciple, recalled from a branch to Chidu. It's normal that everyone finds him unfamiliar. You are the murderer who killed the elders, yet you are here slandering our clansmen, trying to shift the blame for your own crimes. Your intentions are despicable. Don't be fooled by her. Song Xiwei killed all the elders; this is an outrage against heaven and earth!!"
With just a few words from this familiar face, the crowd once again launched a scathing attack on Song Xiwei.
"This is outrageous! This is outrageous!!"
"Release them! Release them!!"
Song Xiwei shook her head helplessly, looking at everyone as if they were idiots. "Have all of you here really thought this through? Do you really believe that this unfamiliar face he's talking about is from your clan, instead of insisting that I'm the murderer? Right?"
"Stop denying it, the evidence against you for killing the elder is irrefutable!!"
"Oh, then let this so-called 'fellow clansman' of yours be tested to see if he has demon blood flowing in his veins. Although I am not a member of your demon clan, I know that even if your branches are not the main branch, the demon blood flowing in their veins may not be pure or orthodox, but it can still be detected by the demon sensing stone."
