Lin Youxian sneered upon hearing this, looking at Ye Chen with mockery, and said, "As a demon sealer, you should be upright. However, you easily betrayed your companions to save your own life. It seems you are not a good person either."

Ye Chen's face stiffened, and he explained, "I was forced to do this; I only wanted to prove that I had been wronged. If it can prevent His Majesty from being deceived, what harm is there in me being a villain?"

Lin Youxian gave a cold laugh and said sarcastically, "Oh, so noble? You think you're doing this for me? How laughable!"

"You think I don't know what you've done?"

Ye Chen was bewildered, not knowing what Lin Youxian was talking about.

He wondered if she was talking about rebellion.

Ye Chen was filled with regret. If he had known this would happen, he would not have agreed to the Four Kings' request.

Now it has become his Achilles' heel.

Lin Youxian coldly added, "What I hate most in my life is someone who betrays their companions, and I hate traitors even more! Guards!"

The two demon guards in the dungeon came before Lin Youxian, clasped their hands and said, "Your Majesty, please give your orders."

Two tree spirit guards clasped their hands in greeting to Lin Youxian.

Lin Youxian glanced at the tree demon guard and said coldly, "Serve with the knife punishment. Cut off a few pieces of his flesh first, and then whip him!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After receiving their orders, the two tree spirit guards came before Ye Xiaofan.

Immediately, they pulled out daggers imbued with magical power and stabbed Ye Chen viciously...

Ye Chen was immediately terrified!

"No, ah!"

Blood splattered everywhere, and screams of agony echoed throughout.

Ye Chen opened his eyes wide in pain.

The two tree demon guards then lunged fiercely at Ye Chen.

ah!

Ye Chen screamed again, his body trembling with pain.

Ye Chen was filled with both pain and regret.

If he had known this woman was clever, he wouldn't have been so presumptuous.

This only made her dislike him even more.

Lin Youxian glanced at it with a cold smile, then led her people away from this level of the dungeon.

We arrived at the second floor.

The Queen of Flowers was imprisoned here.

"Your Majesty, you have arrived!"

The Queen of Flowers was very wary of Lin Youxian.

Lin Youxian looked at her, a deep disappointment on her face. "Xiang Hui, the Overlord Flower Clan has been loyal to my Other Shore Clan for tens of thousands of years. I have never mistreated the Overlord Flower Clan. I never expected you to do such a thing."

The Flower King paused, then said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to explain."

Lin Youxian interrupted her with a cold laugh, saying, "No need to explain. From the moment you decided to form an alliance with the Four Kings, you were no longer my subordinate."

The Queen of Flowers looked grim.

Lin Youxian actually knew that she was colluding with the Four Kings.

Has Ye Chen already revealed what happened?

Lin Youxian clearly didn't have the patience to talk to the Queen of Flowers for long.

She used to be a loyal subordinate, but now I only feel disgusted when I see her.

"I was going to ask you some questions, but it seems unnecessary."

Lin Youxian spoke calmly, then looked at the Saint-level expert behind her and said, "Granny Yang, perform a soul search! I want to know everything."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The powerful woman known as Granny Yang is a female demon transformed from an old poplar tree.

She has cultivated for thousands of years and has long since attained the cultivation level of a Saint-level expert.

Granny Yang opened the cell door and came to the Queen of Flowers.

The Queen of Flowers was immediately filled with fear.

She didn't want her soul searched.

However, her cultivation had long been suppressed, making it impossible for her to resist.

She watched helplessly as Old Yang raised his hand and pressed it against her forehead.

In an instant, smoke billowed from the top of the King of Flowers' head, and it let out a pig-like scream.

After a short while, the soul search was completed.

The Queen of the Night Flower collapsed to the ground like a dead bull, foaming at the mouth.

Granny Yang also reported the information she had obtained to Lin Youxian.

"Your Majesty, Ye Xiaofan is indeed the successor of the first generation of Demon Sealing, and the ninth generation Demon Sealing Master. His identity is extraordinary..."

Nine generations of demon sealing?

Lin Youxian was surprised; it was beyond her expectations.

Then she asked, "Does she have any memory of Ye Xiaofan killing the Third Prince?"

Granny Yang shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, no."

"According to the information I obtained, Ye Xiaofan was in the Bawanghua Mansion last night."

"There are many maids in the Tyrant Flower Mansion. Ye Xiaofan is alone, with them..."

"If Your Majesty wishes to confirm this further, you may perform a soul search on all those maids."

Those people from the Wang Mansion who were known as the "Overlord Flowers" have now been captured and thrown into the dungeon.

Following Granny Yang's suggestion, Lin Youxian nodded, "Then let's search!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Led by the dungeon guards, Granny Yang opened the dungeon rooms one by one.

Because she "read" the memories of the Queen of Flower, Granny Yang knew who Ye Xiaofan was with last night.

He found a total of ten demonesses and searched their souls.

The results of the soul search came out quickly.

Half an hour later, Granny Yang returned to Lin Youxian's presence.

At this moment, Lin Youxian sat on her throne in the dungeon hall.

Granny Yang respectfully said to Lin Youxian, "Your Majesty, I have searched them all and confirmed that they were with Ye Xiaofan last night."

"Although Ye Xiaofan's combat strength is weak, he took a lot of medicine and stayed with them all night..."

Lin Youxian was slightly taken aback before she understood what Granny Yang meant.

Her face darkened, and she said, "Some things don't need to be explained so clearly!"

Granny Yang immediately felt guilty and said, "Your Majesty, I was being presumptuous."

"Um!"

Lin Youxian nodded.

Granny Yang continued, "Judging from the results of the soul search, Ye Xiaofan was not the one who killed the Third Prince. Yet His Majesty, relying on the mysteries of the great formation, saw that Ye Xiaofan killed the Third Prince. This is truly strange; we don't know which is true."
