The Great Sage Equaling Heaven's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "A piece of evidence that can prove the Immortal Emperor was not killed by Consort Su, but by someone else!"

Ye Qingge's pupils contracted sharply; she finally understood why the system had released such a message.

The background panel provided by the system made her feel that there were many secrets behind the death of the old Heavenly Emperor, and that there were likely many underlying reasons. Among them, the new Heavenly Emperor was the biggest suspect!

If such news were announced at the Ten Thousand Demons Assembly... one can foresee a great storm sweeping across the entire demon race and the Heavenly Court, and even the entire world!

"Given the current state of the demon race, even if there is evidence, they cannot confront the Heavenly Emperor directly."

Ye Qingge frowned slightly, a hint of worry appearing on her face.

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven spoke confidently, waving his hand and saying, "We old folks who have received the favor of Consort Su are not dead yet. There are also many celestial officials in the Heavenly Court who suspect that the Heavenly Emperor's ascension to the throne is illegitimate, and there are quite a few celestial officials who have opinions about the current Heavenly Emperor. This is a perfect opportunity to thoroughly investigate this matter, restore Her Highness the Princess's right to justice, and restore a bright and just world to the world."

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Great Sage."

Ye Qingge's expression was solemn. She cupped her hands to the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and a hint of gratitude appeared on her face.

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven smiled and said, "It's just my duty. Compared to the favors Consort Su has shown me, it's nothing at all."

The two demons chatted for a while longer, and Ye Qingge took the opportunity to make a suggestion, testing the limits of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, before smiling and taking the jade slip given to her by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven to bid farewell.

After returning to her room, Ye Qingge's expression turned serious. The power of the Heavenly God Transformation within her surged as she practiced the Heavenly God Transformation while pondering the current situation.

"I originally thought that this time, by possessing the Great Sage Equaling Heaven and summoning all the demon saints, he only wanted to use Su Qing'er's identity to increase his influence over the demon race. When the time was right, he would use the power of the demon race to launch an attack on the Heavenly Emperor and achieve his own goal. During this gap, I could take advantage of the opportunity to use Su Qing'er's Soul Devouring Technique to help her grow quickly. Once she had enough strength, I could slowly take control of the situation."

"Unexpectedly, plans can't keep up with changes. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven acted so quickly. Su Qing'er had only just arrived, and he was already preparing to push her into a direct confrontation with the Heavenly Court... This time, it seems like it was premeditated!"

"The scope of this vortex will definitely not be small. The most crucial thing is that, given the current situation, Su Qing'er has nowhere to escape and can only follow the Great Sage Equaling Heaven down this dark path."

The difficulty of this mission was far greater than she had imagined!

Even during her first mission possessing the Empress, the Empress at least possessed the foundation of the fifth level of the Dao Realm. Su Qing'er, on the other hand, is only at the second level of the Dao Realm, yet she will directly become the leader in the clash between the two major forces. To complete the mission, she must be extremely careful with every step and cannot afford to make any mistakes.

"Before that, I must thoroughly understand the limits of Su Qing'er's strength and safely get through the time before the Ten Thousand Demons Assembly. Then... I need to find out the situation of everyone on these lists in order to find an opportunity to break the deadlock."

Using the breathing techniques from the Primordial Dao Scripture to calm his mind, Ye Qingge placed the jade slip on his forehead and probed into it with his consciousness, browsing the information within.

Although the demon race has declined, there are still hundreds of demon gods. The record contains information about each demon god, but the information is very simple, only their names and general introductions.

This time, during the use of the Celestial Transformation, Su Qingya's consciousness did something and did not appear. By questioning Su Qing'er in her mind, Ye Qingge gained a basic understanding of many of the demon gods and began to slowly formulate a more detailed plan and strategy.

As Su Qing'er practiced her skills, night fell without her noticing.

The Demon Saint Palace was completely silent in the night. The maids moved about in utter silence, and the only sound in the room was Ye Qingge enjoying her dinner.

Having reached Su Qing'er's cultivation level, she could actually practice abstaining from grains. However, Su Qing'er's situation was special; she possessed the Great Perfection of the Soul Devouring Technique, and consuming a high-quality dinner would greatly increase her cultivation speed, which gradually became a habit.

This special ability seems to be Su Qing'er's only talent. Others just think that Su Qing'er has a special hobby. There are many demons with similar hobbies, so no one cares.

After finishing the last bite, Ye Qingge put down the jade slip and, as she pondered, a rough plan began to take shape.

She gently shook the bell beside the table, signaling the maid to enter the room. She rose from her seat, preparing to go to the bed behind the screen to continue refining her ideas.

Before she could even stand up straight, a strange aura suddenly descended, and Ye Qingge felt as if her body had lost its control, instantly becoming stiff and unable to move.

Fortunately, the feeling came and went quickly. While sensing the abnormality in her body, she looked around warily: "Is the crisis described in the system mission finally coming?"

call

The door to the room was suddenly opened, a breeze blew in, and an inexplicable eerie atmosphere swept in. Ye Qingge's eyes narrowed and fell on the open door.

Chapter 29 The Great Assembly of Ten Thousand Demons

Outside the door, a maid appeared. Noticing Ye Qingge's unfriendly gaze, she shrank back and said cautiously, "Miss, I'm here to collect the dishes."

Ye Qingge glanced behind the maid, the Primordial Dao Scripture within her body quietly circulating, and said with a smile, "Come in."

The maid let out a soft breath, walked slowly to Ye Qingge, and skillfully picked up the plate.

She skillfully cleared away the dishes, and just as she was about to place the plate on the tray, a strange force suddenly flashed by, and the plate abruptly transformed into a slender dagger, stabbing towards Ye Qingge.

Ye Qingge's face showed panic as she narrowly avoided the opponent's attack. The opponent's strength seemed to have increased considerably. However, Ye Qingge's reaction was not slow either. After dodging several times, she finally found an opportunity. The first level of the Heavenly God Transformation was activated, and her spiritual power quickly transformed into surging divine power. The power of the five elemental divine abilities in her hand gathered, and she punched the maid hard.

bang

As the violent force surged forth, the maid let out a silent scream, her body rapidly disintegrating and vanishing before Ye Qingge's eyes under the terrifying force.

"If this is all you're capable of, then you've really disappointed me."

She let out a cold laugh.

These words seemed to enrage the enemy hidden in the shadows. Suddenly, thunder roared from the outside, and a gale blew in. The bedroom window pounded against the frame, making a loud banging sound. Wisps of wind blew through the window into the room, making the eerie atmosphere inside even stronger. It was as if many invisible beings had appeared. They could be sensed intuitively, but their targets could not be found, which made people's hair stand on end.

In the corner of the room, the figures of Manager Qing, the Sword God of Dongzhou, and others who had intercepted Ye Qingge on the river appeared one by one. Their figures, like ghosts, attacked Ye Qingge from eight different directions.

"careful!"

Su Qing'er couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Ye Qingge seemed unaware of the attacks from the surrounding phantoms. Only when the attacks were about to hit her did she seem to realize it, narrowly avoiding the attacks. She then continued to fight the eight attacking phantoms with the power of the Heavenly God Transformation.

It took Ye Qingge more than ten minutes to defeat the eight phantoms. Her clothes were torn, her hair was disheveled, and she looked utterly wretched.

However, her eyes revealed a mocking look, and she sneered, "Just a loser from before. You're too naive to think you can scare me with that."

The wind outside grew stronger, thunder roared, and a sudden downpour began, as if the heavens were enraged.

"Still being stubborn."

A cold snort came from outside. Above the door, a young man's figure suddenly walked in. Wherever he passed, the space flickered and changed. Divine light shone in his eyes. With each step he took, the entire world changed, and the earth trembled violently. He seemed to be the protagonist of the world, and the world had to act according to his will.

He stepped into Ye Qingge's bedroom. He was surrounded by a dense array of maids and guards, who escorted him as he arrived, symbolizing his status.

It is none other than the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven"!

"If it weren't for your good luck, even the loser you're talking about could easily kill you. What's the use of empty words? Let me show you what truly unparalleled power is. What's the use of good luck? This time you have nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape, die!"

The "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" lightly pointed towards Ye Qingge, unleashing a surge of demonic power that caused the entire palace wall to collapse and the earth to tremble violently. The spiritual energy lights in Ye Qingge's room flickered and eventually exploded, seemingly unable to withstand the pressure.

The wrath of the Demon Saint can change the very fabric of heaven and earth!

At the same time, the power that had previously imprisoned Ye Qingge attacked again, attempting to imprison her once more and kill her completely.

This time, Ye Qingge's face was expressionless, revealing an unprecedented calm as she said, "Good luck can make the enemy appear weak, and the power of words can enrage them. The combination of the two can expose their weaknesses and break the deadly trap... Your weakness has already been revealed."

"Now, it's my turn."

She smiled slightly, and the seal within her body was completely released. Her figure showed no intention of avoiding the attack, and she flew towards the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" in the face of his attack.

"court death!"

The "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" sneered repeatedly, increasing the burst of power. The surrounding scene became even more terrifying, with the nearby sky being torn apart by the terrifying force, as if the whole world was about to be overturned.

However, even such terrifying power could not shake Ye Qingge in the slightest when it fell upon her.

Ye Qingge effortlessly traversed countless forces to reach him amidst his astonished gaze. Just as he was about to defend himself, she suddenly shifted her position, drew the spirit sword she had used before, and stabbed it at the steward behind her without any hesitation.

Ding

With a crisp sound, the whole world collapsed. Ye Qingge felt a darkness before her eyes, and when her vision returned, she was still in the same stiff position as when she stood up.

"What just happened? Was it an illusion? It was broken so easily?"

Su Qing'er was still a little slow to react.

Ye Qingge smiled slightly and said, "Yes, do you remember the look of fear I had just shown?"

Su Qing'er replied, "What does it matter?"

Ye Qingge strolled toward the door, saying, "That was a test. The illusion I just saw was designed to affect the mind. The more afraid you are of the illusion, the stronger it becomes. Just as I expected, when I was filled with fear, the maid's power increased."

"You saw the next steps: block out fear, feign weakness to make the opponent feel that they were almost able to defeat me, then provoke their anger with words, and when the opponent's soul, which controls the entire illusion, comes out, shatter it with one move, and the illusion is over."

"It's... that simple?" Su Qing'er was still a little confused.

"It's that simple." Ye Qingge smiled slightly and didn't continue.

What she told Su Qing'er was correct, but only she knew the danger involved. The illusion just now was an illusion targeting the mind. If you feel fear, panic, or other negative emotions towards the beings in the illusion, they will become nourishment for the illusion. The more negative emotions you have, the stronger the illusion becomes.

Conversely, the stronger one's mind, the weaker the illusion becomes. With sufficient mental strength, the illusion may not even be able to harm Ye Qingge!

This is also why she took the blow from the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" in the illusion head-on.

but……

"It wasn't easy to remain calm in that illusion. If I weren't a nine-tailed fox demon with strong resistance to illusions, and if the Empress hadn't just made a new breakthrough in her Hongmeng Dao Realm, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to completely overcome that illusion. Even ordinary immortals at the third or fourth level of the Dao Realm might have been killed by it!"

Ye Qingge glanced at Su Qing'er's panel.

Besides Su Qing'er's own skills, her own skills will also be listed behind her when she possesses someone. On the skill panel, the parentheses after the Hongmeng Dao Scripture are no longer for beginners, but for minor success. This is the result of her practice after possessing the Empress, as well as the results of her practice over the past half day on Su Qing'er's body.

The Primordial Dao Scripture itself contains visualization diagrams, allowing one to visualize ancient gods and demons, using their power to temper the mind and gradually shape the divine within. After reaching the Lesser Completion stage, when she circulated the Primordial Dao Scripture, her mind became impervious to all things. Aside from the initial trials, maintaining a calm state completely neutralized any harm from the illusions!

However, she wouldn't go into these details with Su Qing'er. Given Su Qing'er's naive nature, explaining them would only confuse her further.

Shaking her head, Ye Qingge opened the door and looked out at the courtyard outside her bedroom.

The maid who had been on duty had collapsed on the spot. She carefully observed her surroundings and saw that there seemed to be the aura of a supernatural power being used in a place not far away. However, no trace was left behind, and the aura left behind was extremely faint. It would completely dissipate in a few minutes, making it impossible to follow it.

Ye Qingge glanced at it and already had a general idea in mind: "To be able to make a move right under the nose of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, it means that the other party is a demon race trusted by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. There are only a few demon races in the palace who are both powerful and trusted by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. How could they possibly escape?"

"And then there's Manager Qing, who attacked me before. His excuse of being greedy for money was clearly just a pretext. I'm afraid that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven already has a complete organization under his command that wants to attack me... The Great Sage Equaling Heaven is not good at managing his subordinates."

The image of the steward standing behind the Great Sage Equaling Heaven in the previous illusion flashed through her mind. She narrowed her eyes and temporarily stopped thinking about it.

We'll just have to keep an eye on who it is tomorrow. It's already late at night, so it's not the right time to investigate.

He patted the maid's shoulder, channeling a bit of his divine power after his transformation into a celestial being into her body. The maid immediately snapped back to reality. Her eyes glazed over for a few seconds before she finally realized her predicament. She abruptly stood up, stammering, "I'm sorry, Miss, I was wrong. I don't know why I suddenly fell asleep... I... I..."

“It’s not your fault, but you certainly didn’t do your job as a maid.”

Ye Qingge spoke calmly. The first sentence made the maid breathe a small sigh of relief, but the second sentence made her heart jump.

"Then I..."

The maidservant watched Ye Qingge cautiously.

Ye Qingge said calmly, "I have something I need you to do. If you can complete it successfully, I will forgive you. If you cannot..."

The maid shivered and nodded quickly.

Ye Qingge sent a few words to the maid before turning around and returning to her room.

With the maid's weakness in her possession, she wasn't afraid that the maid would neglect her duties. After returning to her room, she continued to practice her supernatural powers and magic, further mastering the Taoist skills on Su Qing'er's body.
