Fairy, please don't do this!

Gu Jinzhao shook his head and said calmly, "This kind of transformation is based on a demon skin. To identify its identity, you need to peel off its skin."

"No matter what, Yuehen is the second elder of the clan, holding a high position and great power, and is deeply trusted by the clan members."

"If I make accusations without any evidence, even if you believe me, will your people believe me?"

Yue'e fell silent.

As Gu Jinchao said, Yuehen's status in the clan was second only to her and the Great Elder Yueci.

If Gu Jinchao rashly accuses him, not only will he be unable to gain people's trust, but he may also alert the enemy and even be bitten in return.

Now, although Gu Jinzhao risked her life, she managed to expose the Second Elder, a spy from another race, thus saving her from a dilemma.

Thinking of this, Yue'e felt a warm glow in her heart...

Chapter 370, "This concubine will go and clean up the house right now!" (3K)

Inside the pavilion!

Gu Jinzhao looked at the stunning noblewoman beside him and slowly said, "Just now I used the Soul Searching Secret Technique and learned from Yuehen's soul memories that, in addition to him, there are also spies from the Golden Roc Clan within the Moth Phoenix Clan."

Yuechu'e's gaze sharpened slightly: "How many people are there in total?"

"Fifteen people!"

Gu Jinzhao narrowed his eyes: "After the Demon Sealing War ended, the first-grade Dao Integration Realm cultivator of the Moth Phoenix Clan perished, and the Moth Phoenix Clan was annexed by the Jiao Peng Clan, forcing them to leave the Demon Court."

"At that time, they were planted in."

"The Golden Roc Clan's initial goal was to destroy the Moth Phoenix Clan to prevent future troubles."

He paused, then said meaningfully, "But later, because you, Madam, established the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce, it brought enormous profits."

"They then used their clan affiliation to secretly transfer the pills and spiritual items that the merchant guild had sent back to the clan back to the Demon Court, where they ended up in the Peng Clan's pockets."

Yuechu'e's face was frosty, and her voice was icy cold: "No wonder the clan's expenses have been increasing over the years."

"I originally thought it was because the number of people in the clan had increased, and the need for cultivation had naturally increased. I checked the accounts several times but found no problems."

"So it was all their doing..."

Gu Jinzhao continued, "Afterwards, seeing that the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce had become the largest chamber of commerce in Kyushu, they wanted to gain more benefits, which led to the Nine Nether Rift incident."

Yuechu'e frowned slightly: "Wasn't the Nine Nether Rift in the Misty Swamp torn apart because of the formation of the [Prison Dragon Vein]?"

"Could this also be the work of the Peng Clan?"

Gu Jinzhao nodded slightly: "After the [Prison Dragon Vein] took shape, it did tear apart the spatial barrier between the Nine Netherworlds and the Nine Provinces, but its location was not in the Misty Swamp, but in a mountain range in the Demon Court Cangzhou."

Yuechu'e's face suddenly darkened: "Does Young Master Gu mean that the Golden Roc Clan used powerful means to relocate the [Prison Dragon Vein] here, intending to devour the entire Ehuang Clan?"

Gu Jinzhao shook his head: "It's not the Peng Clan, but the Underworld God Cult!"

"They entered the Nine Netherworld and used the semi-immortal artifact [Boundary Void Flag] to teleport to the Cangyou Realm beneath the Misty Swamp."

Yuechu'e asked in bewilderment, "Why would the Underworld Cult get involved in this matter?"

Gu Jinzhao recounted what he knew in detail: "The two sides reached a deal..."

It turns out that the Golden Roc Clan saw that the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce, established by Yuechu'e, was growing stronger and had become the largest chamber of commerce in the Nine Provinces, so they wanted to take control of it.

But how could Yueyue'e, as the president of the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce and the patriarch of the Moth Phoenix Clan, be willing to hand it over to her former enemy?

Therefore, the Golden Roc Clan wanted to destroy the Misty Swamp and force the Moth Phoenix Clan to leave their habitat.

The Moth Phoenix Clan cannot return to the Demon Court, and the human realm will not accept them, leaving them in a dilemma.

At this time, the Golden Roc Clan will appear.

Xu Yueyue promised that if the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce handed over 80% of its annual profits, she would accept them back.

For the sake of the survival and continuation of the tribe, Yue'e had to agree, no matter how unwilling she was.

The problem is, how do we destroy the Misty Swamp?

Just then, the Church of the Underworld came knocking.

They wanted the [Prison Dragon Vein] beneath Cangzhou, to refine it into the spirit of the [Boundary Void Flag], making it a true immortal artifact.

In this way, the barrier between the Nine Netherworlds and the Nine Provinces can be opened at any time, allowing the demons to be brought over.

Both parties had their own agendas, and the deal was thus reached.

This is why, in the game's storyline, the leader of the Underworld Cult, Shi Youming, appears in the Misty Swamp.

Yuechu'e looked at the handsome man in front of her: "Young Master Gu already has a way to break the deadlock?"

Gu Jinzhao nodded slightly: "Of course!"

He came to the Misty Swamp not only to help the Moth Phoenix Clan steal the fortune of the Demon Clan, but also to completely thwart the plans of the Underworld God Cult.

Yueyue'e took a deep breath: "Besides Yuehen, who else in the Golden Roc Clan is a spy?"

Gu Jinzhao walked to the desk, picked up a brush, and wrote more than ten names on the Xuan paper.

When Yue'e looked up, her jade-like face instantly filled with a chilling killing intent.

Because the people on the list are all clan members who hold important positions in the clan.

There was a deacon in charge of the storeroom, a manager in charge of purchasing, and even three elders!

Fourth Elder Yue Ming, Sixth Elder Yue Lan, Ninth Elder Yue Che!

These three, like Yuehen, are core members of the Moth Phoenix Clan and are highly respected within the clan!

Unexpectedly, they were members of the Golden Roc clan.

Yuechu'e put away the sheet of Xuan paper, bowed to Gu Jinzhao, and said, "I will remember your kindness, Young Master Gu."

Gu Jinzhao supported her and said softly, "The most urgent matter is to deal with the clan's affairs as soon as possible..."

"I will go and clean up the mess right away!"

At the beginning of the month, Yue'e felt a warmth in her heart. She gave him a deep look, then turned and left the pavilion.

……

Inside the palace of the Moth Phoenix Clan, the lights were on full display.

The eight elders of the Moth Phoenix Clan, along with over a hundred clansmen, were summoned and gathered here.

The atmosphere was heavy; you could hear a pin drop.

Yuechu'e glanced at the crowd below, raised her hand and threw an account book onto the table: "I have summoned you all here tonight to settle a matter."

“Over the years, the clan’s treasury has suffered abnormal losses, and cultivation resources have been inexplicably scarce.”

"I originally thought it was a clansman embezzling, but now I know that someone has quietly transferred the clan's cultivation resources."

At this point, her icy gaze fell upon three of them: "Fourth Elder, Sixth Elder, Ninth Elder, do you really think this matter is flawless?"

Upon hearing this, the three men's expressions changed drastically.

Fourth Elder Yueming gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and cupped his hands, saying, "What does Your Majesty mean by this?"

"We are loyal to our clan, how could we possibly embezzle the clan's cultivation resources?"

The Sixth Elder, Yue Lan, also said, "Could it be that Young Master Gu said something to the Empress?"

He suspected Gu Jinzhao because there had been no unexpected events before.

But now that the other party has arrived, Yue'e has noticed something amiss.

This is definitely not a coincidence!

Ninth Elder Yue Che said coldly, "That person has only been in the clan for a few days, yet he has already sown discord. His intentions are despicable!"

The other clansmen who were named also protested their innocence, claiming that they had never colluded with foreign enemies.

Yuechu'e sneered and said to the Grand Elder Yueci, "Bring up 'Moon Mark'."

Yueci accepted the order and commanded people to carry a corpse covered with a white cloth into the hall.

The white cloth was lifted, revealing "Moon Mark's" face, which had regained its true form as a golden roc.

With golden eyes and an aquiline nose, his face was cold and stern, completely different from the Moth Phoenix Clan!

"This is... the Golden Roc Clan?!"

The crowd in the hall erupted in uproar.

Yuechu'e slowly rose and walked to the corpse, her voice icy and chilling: "Second Elder Yuehen was actually a spy of the Golden Roc Clan, who disguised himself for many years using the [Illusion Skin Technique]."

"I have learned from him about the Golden Roc Clan's conspiracy and his more than ten accomplices within the clan."

Fourth Elder Yueming's heart skipped a beat, but he still tried to remain calm: "How can you conclude that we are spies based on just one corpse?"

"Maybe someone framed him!"

"frame?"

"Then I will show you what real evidence is."

At the beginning of the month, Yue'e's eyes revealed a mocking look, and she gently raised her delicate hand.

hum-

Profound and obscure Daoist energy surged from his palm, instantly sealing off the entire palace.

"Daoist charm?"

"The Empress has entered the Second Grade Dao Seeking Realm?"

The people in the crowd were both surprised and delighted.

However, more than ten people looked fearful.

One of the "elders" had a gloomy look in his eyes and couldn't help but say, "Didn't the Empress want to show us evidence? Why is she sealing off this space?"

"The evidence is on you!"

At the beginning of the month, a murderous intent suddenly surged in Yue'e's eyes, and she reached out and grasped the Fourth Elder's hand from a distance.

"Your Majesty, you..."

Yueming was shocked and tried to use his demonic power to resist, but he was controlled by a terrifying Daoist aura and was unable to move at all.

"You dare call yourself 'Empress'?"

Yuechu'e remained expressionless as crimson phoenix flames suddenly surged from her palm.

"Ah... Your Majesty, spare me!"

The excruciating pain that burned through his soul and body caused Yue Ming to let out a scream and writhe wildly.

The demonic skin on its body was quickly charred and peeled off under the scorching phoenix flames, revealing the golden skin underneath and those horrified golden eyes!

"The Golden Roc Clan!"

The people in the hall gasped in surprise.

No one expected that the highly respected Fourth Elder would actually be a spy from another clan.

"Not only the Fourth Elder, but they are also..."

Yuechu'e's icy gaze fell on the Sixth Elder, the Ninth Elder, and the dozen or so "clan members" in the arena.

As her soft hand brushed past, the Nirvana Phoenix Flame ignited once more!

"Ah...ah..."

With a series of piercing screams, their demon skins were quickly burned away, revealing the bodies of the Golden Roc Clan.

"What else do you have to say now?"

Yuechu'e put away the Phoenix Flame and coldly glanced at the Golden Roc Clan spies who were lying on the ground, their bodies charred black.

"You killed us... Penghuang will never let this go..."

The Sixth Elder, Yue Lan, and the Ninth Elder, Yue Che, were engulfed in flames, rolling wildly on the ground, their cries of agony never ceasing.

"The Golden Roc Clan slaughtered my people, and I, the Emperor, will make you pay for this in blood!"

Yuechu'e snorted coldly, and the Nirvana Phoenix Flame that enveloped the main hall instantly transformed into a raging inferno.

"what--!!!"
