Feng Yantong was right; the real show was about to begin.
The next morning.
Ye Chen, who had transformed into Gu Jian, was still cultivating in the residence of the Minister of War, the Demon Slayer.
A troop of demons directly under the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen arrived swiftly.
Meanwhile, Gu Jian, the instigator, transformed back into Li Bai and leisurely drank tea at a nearby inn.
Bian Daque, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, sat opposite Gu Jian.
Since Gu Jian was treating, Bian Daque didn't stand on ceremony at all and started drinking Yuhua tea, a specialty of Jinling City.
"Brother Taibai, thank you for bringing me here to drink Yuhua tea. But do you also think the Yuhua tea at this restaurant is very fragrant?"
Gu Jian smiled and said, "It's not just the Yuhua tea from Jinling that smells good, but also the melons here."
"oh?"
The magpie was curious and expressed its willingness to hear more details.
"The melons have arrived."
Gu Jian smiled and glanced at the waiter, who was a demonic cultivator, who brought over fruits and placed them in front of Gu Jian and Bian Daque.
He then gestured for Bian Daque to join him in eating melons.
"Thank you very much, Brother Taibai!"
Without any hesitation, the magpie grabbed it and started eating.
At this moment.
The demon army that came from the imperial city had already arrived in front of the Minister of War's residence.
The leader was a stunningly beautiful female demon with unparalleled beauty and captivating peach blossom eyes.
She had a fiery figure and a powerful aura, wearing demonic armor and riding on a massive demonic beast.
Under the astonished gazes of passersby, she raised her delicate eyebrows and gave the order, "Take down the guards of the Minister of War's residence and surround the residence!"
"Yes, Commander!"
One by one, the demon soldiers of the imperial city rushed forward and captured all the guards outside the Minister of War's residence.
A troop of imperial demon soldiers rushed into the mansion.
Instantly, chaos erupted in the Minister of War's residence.
The commotion attracted pedestrians on the street.
Whether they were demon cultivators, evil cultivators, or demons, they all stopped in their tracks and became onlookers.
Some were whispering and discussing amongst themselves.
"This is Hua Mudan, one of the four leaders of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom and the leader of the Flower Demons. She is Her Majesty the Empress's sworn sister."
"But why did Commander Hua lead a large army to surround the Minister of War's residence so early in the morning? And why did the demon army break in? What happened?"
"I don't know, but it might be related to last night's tragedy!"
"What tragedy?"
"Last night, the Leopard Demon Commander, who was in charge of escorting prisoners, led a hundred demon soldiers and was escorting a group of high-quality Chu slaves through Fallen Demon Valley, but they were all intercepted and killed. It seems that it was done by people from the Military Demon Minister's Mansion!"
"Hiss, how could this be! Isn't the Minister of War a loyal subject of the Fox Queen?"
"These days, it's hard to say who's loyal to whom. But I heard that the one who committed the crime wasn't the Minister of War himself, but his demonic cultivator retainer."
"It seems that Minister of War has quite a few demonic cultivator followers. Are you referring to that one?"
"It's related to the Misty Sect outside..."
"The Flower Fairy Commander has already gone to capture them; we'll find out soon."
"..."
The vast majority of onlookers were completely bewildered.
However, some well-informed people inevitably leak information.
While drinking tea in the teahouse, Gu Jian's gaze fell upon the flower demon leader.
If Gu Jian remembers correctly...
In the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, there are four demon leaders who are loyal to the Fox Demon Queen. They are all female demons with the strength of the Supreme Realm, and are known as the "Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon" Four Leaders. Together, they command more than half of the demon soldiers and generals in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.
This flower fairy leader is one of the four, and also the sworn sister of the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen.
She herself possesses strength comparable to that of a human supreme being.
Such a powerful being has come in person.
It seems Ye Chen is going to have a tough time today.
As Gu Jian looked at these.
Four figures also took their seats at the inn in the distance.
It was Feng Yantong, Ye Qingcheng, Ai Youwei, and Liu Ruyan.
Feng Yantong guessed there would be a good show, so she came with Gu Jian.
Ai Youwei and Liu Ruyan did not want to be left in the inn, which is why they came with their master and uncle.
Ye Qingcheng now knows that what Gu Jian did last night was to target the person impersonating him.
Who exactly is that person?
Why impersonate Gu Jian?
Perhaps the answer will be available today.
As time went on, the Minister of War's residence became increasingly chaotic.
This is the residence of the Demon Minister, where a strong demonic aura permeates the air.
With a ferocious roar, the phantom of a giant elephant appeared in the air.
"Who dares to disrupt my Demon Soldier's Palace?!"
A deafening roar, reaching ten zhang in height, erupted from the residence of the Minister of War.
With a loud bang, the ground shook.
Those around were all shocked.
This is the very same Minister of War, Xiang Botian!
It has a human body and an elephant's head, with a long elephant trunk that looks like it's growing on its face!
Xiang Botian is a level seven demon, possessing strength comparable to the peak of the human Reincarnation Realm.
It was furious at that moment.
Who would tolerate being disturbed like this so early in the morning while having intimate moments with several fairy wives?
However, when Xiang Botian saw the Flower Fairy leading the Peony, his expression immediately changed.
The Flower Fairy Leader, Peony, possessed an exquisite oval face, with a captivating and alluring beauty.
Riding atop a demonic beast, she saw Xiang Botian and sneered, "Minister of War Demons, what a show of power! Daring to use demonic magic, are you planning a rebellion?!"
Upon hearing this, Xiang Botian broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, "Commander Hua, this demon dares not!"
"I don't know what has disturbed Commander Hua, that he wants to surround my Ministry of War's residence."
