Zu An smiled slightly: "Thank you for saving me, Your Majesty. I hope we can meet again someday."

The little demon queen nodded, then pulled Qiao Xueying aside for a while, instructing her on how to deal with the palace's inquiries before leaving.

Next, following the method taught by the Little Demon Queen, Zuan sent Qiao Xueying back to the Elf King's Palace, deliberately letting many people see her return—of course, he himself would not show his face.

On the way, Zuan had already told her about his current identity and that he was temporarily staying at the snake clan's residence, which made Xue'er very jealous, since the demon clan all had information about Medusa.

The Legend of the Queen.

It wasn't until Zu'an told her that Yan Xuehen was also there that she felt relieved. She thought that with Chu Yan's master there, this guy shouldn't dare to do anything reckless, and then she happily returned to the Elf King's Palace.

Some rejoiced, others grieved. In the imperial prison, Zongzheng Heichiran was arrested, his body beaten so badly that not a single patch of skin was intact, and he couldn't even open his eyes. He could only mumble incoherently, "I'm innocent..."

"You still dare not tell the truth?" The Golden Crow Prince was now pale, clearly the Golden Crow Sacred Fire had helped him recover, but it had also taken a toll on him. "Castrate me!"

The jailer standing nearby looked shocked. Only then did the Golden Crow Prince realize that he had lost his temper: "Oh no, I mean, castrate him!"

jailer:"……"

They were almost in tears. Who should they castrate?

Fortunately, Grandmaster Wu came out to stop him: "Your Highness, do not act rashly. In my opinion, the one yesterday was probably not Hei Chi Ran."

"Who else could it be but him? I saw it with my own eyes!" Prince Jinwu thought to himself that he had finally set up yesterday's scheme and was about to win over Princess Xue, but she was taken away by the other party.

The fact that Snow White was drugged by him at the time speaks volumes about what happened that night.

This guy is a traitor, daring to even lay a hand on his own woman?

Old Wu explained, “Your Highness, think about it. Although Hei Chi Ran’s cultivation is not low, he is no match for you. Moreover, I fought with that assassin yesterday. With Hei Chi Ran’s cultivation, he definitely couldn’t withstand my full-force attack.”

After venting his anger all night, Prince Jinwu had calmed down considerably and finally regained some of his composure: "Who else could it be but him? That assassin looks exactly like him, even his black teeth are identical."

Old Wu explained, "That person likely possesses extremely advanced disguise skills, which is why he impersonated Heichiran. By the way, General Ma Tian of the Left Guard just reported something noteworthy. He mentioned that when that 'Heichiran' entered the palace yesterday, he claimed to be summoned by the Crown Prince and even produced your special Golden Crow Token. That thing cannot be faked!"

The Golden Crow Prince was furious: "Arrest all those who possess my Golden Crow Token and interrogate them thoroughly. I will find that bastard and skin him alive to vent my anger!"

Old Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "Has the Crown Prince forgotten that we also sent one out when we were in the Snake Clan?"

Prince Jinwu's face darkened: "You mean that despicable human?"

“Indeed, only he could be so familiar with your moves and skills, and he’s not afraid of your Golden Crow Sacred Flame. Even if someone else launched a sneak attack, it would be difficult for them to seriously injure you in such a short time,” Elder Wu added. “And I heard that the Snake Clan recently entered the Royal Court.”

"It was him! Perfect, I'll settle both old and new scores at once!" Prince Jinwu slammed the table beside him to pieces. "Guards, bring all the snake clan members back to me!"
