Chapter 854 She Was Disfigured
I lowered my head and glanced at the plate handed over by my subordinate. I didn't rush to pick it up. Instead, I raised my head and glanced at Ye Jinli.

"what is this?"

"Open it and take a look." He replied.

I stretched out my hand nervously and gently took off the red cloth on the tray. What appeared in front of me was a white gauze.

This gauze is somewhat transparent, and there are some patterns embroidered with white thread on it. At first glance, it looks like the most common large handkerchief in a woman's hand.

But when I took a closer look, I immediately realized something was not right.

Why does this thing look familiar...

Just like, that woman in white who is called the Empress, is wearing something on her face?

But I hadn’t seen her a few times, let alone seen her up close, and I didn’t dare to make a direct judgment. I had to raise my head again and asked Ye Jinli, “Where did you get this thing?”

"Aren't you curious about the true identity of this woman in white gauze?" he asked me in an unanswered question.

I was immediately interested, "You know?"

"A few days ago, when I was checking Ye Jinnian's whereabouts, I met a woman wearing white clothes and a bamboo hat. She suddenly appeared in the middle of the road and blocked the road. I had a fight with her."

"She is very strong, on par with me. The reason why she appeared was to buy Ye Jinnian some time to escape. After attracting firepower, she quickly escaped."

"I took advantage of her turning around and used my sword to lift the veil off her face. She didn't have time to pick it up, so she covered her face and quickly left the battlefield." Ye Jinli said slowly and leisurely.

When I heard this, I felt even more anxious. I wanted him to quickly tell me what that woman looked like.

However, it was as if he was hanging on me on purpose. He trailed off for a long time before he slowly continued.

"Her face seems to have been burned. Her face is distorted and covered with scars. Her true appearance cannot be seen clearly, but I can be sure of one thing -"

"This woman is a monster."

"It's still a fox demon with Tushan's bloodline."

As soon as he said these words, my heart suddenly "thumped", and even my breathing suddenly slowed down for half a beat.

"The bloodline of the Tushan clan was almost dead hundreds of years ago. I have been in the world for so long, and the only bloodlines of the Tushan clan that I have seen are Hu Sanniang and Lu Qingluan. How are you sure that she also has Tushan blood?" Shan’s blood?”

"She was injured. The smell of blood is exactly the same as when you were injured. I can't smell it wrong." Ye Jinli said lightly.

Only then did I suddenly remember that there are so many wandering souls in the world, and that the underworld relies on its unusually sharp sense of smell to hunt down those wandering souls.

Ye Jinli is the master of the Yin Division. He has extremely high cultivation and an extremely keen sense of smell.

If it is true, as he said, that woman has Tushan's blood flowing on her body, can it be concluded...

Is it very possible that she is really Empress Tushan?
But if she were Empress Tushan, what happened to her face? How could she be burned like that?
"Is the good news you want to tell me that you have discovered something suspicious about her identity?" I asked Ye Jinli.

He replied calmly: "Of course there is bad news."

"Logically speaking, she and Ye Jinnian are incompatible with each other. If they suddenly cooperate, there must be a middleman to facilitate it."

"Liu Li, do you think there is anyone else in this world who hates you so much and would like to cause you troubles at every turn?"
