The Legend of Yaoxian's Departure

Chapter 40 What I want you to see
Li Luo thought that Xue Ji had been in contact with Shi Qianye these days, could it be for the purpose of investigating this matter?

"That's right, that woman always asks my brother to talk about something in secret. Every time my brother comes back, he looks sad, saying that he is not capable of protecting the eldest princess." The little girl interjected.

"Is Shi Qianye's secret related to the ruler of the Demon Realm? Now that she has controlled the entire Demon Realm, it seems that her goal has been achieved." Li Luo said slowly.

"Have you ever heard your brother mention the First Prince?" Xue Ji looked at the little girl.

The little girl shook her head slowly. "My brother only mentioned Shi Qianye, but never mentioned the eldest prince. It seems that this person disappeared 300 years ago."

Li Luo was startled, and suddenly thought of something to say to Xue Ji. "I remembered, the last time I went to the First Prince to test his mana, and found that although he has a high level of cultivation, he is not as powerful as the outside rumors. He's great."

Xue Ji nodded. "You came to tell me about this last time?"

Li Luo couldn't help but blush when she thought of the discord between the two of them before. "That's right, you didn't say that you were trying to test Shi Qianye."

Xue Ji pursed his lips and snickered, seeing that she looked like she had done something wrong, he couldn't help reaching out and patting her forehead. "Could it be that you want me to tell you in front of Shi Qianye that I suspect her and approach her on purpose?"

"But when did you actually learn to sell your appearance in exchange for information?" Li Luo looked at him playfully.

The little girl watched the two of them coming and going, and even forgot herself, and carefully pulled Liluo's sleeve. "Sister, can you really avenge my brother?"

"We will find the murderer who killed your brother. If you pay for your life, that person will also pay the price." Li Luo comforted her. In fact, she wanted to tell the little girl that Ying Ying is actually a big devil who does all kinds of evil. It's a good thing, but seeing how she adores big brother so much, let's leave some bad thoughts for her at the end.

Xue Ji looked at Li Luo. "We should go."

Li Luo thought for a while and took out all the silver and previous things from her arms, and stuffed them all to the little girl. "You live with these things. If you have the opportunity to leave the Demon Realm, go to Xusha Town outside to find Yueniang and ask her to take you in. She is a good person and will definitely not leave you alone."

The little girl looked at Liluo gratefully holding these silver jewels. "Thank you sister, I will definitely repay you in the future!"

"You don't need to repay me, just remember to be a good person." Li Luo patted her head, then jumped up to the cloud with Xue Ji, and quickly disappeared into the air.

Sitting cross-legged on the cloud, Li Luo sighed melancholy. "It's a pity that I don't have a fixed place to live, otherwise I would have brought her with me."

"If you don't want to wander outside, you might as well return to the sky with me." Xue Ji said lightly.

"Those old men in the sky love to tell tales, they talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality. If I go to heaven, I won't be condemned to death by them. I won't go!" Li Luo said without thinking.

Xue Ji smiled without saying a word, there were extraordinarily many smiles today, and he drove the cloud faster by chanting the formula.

"Why are you walking so fast?" Li Luo asked puzzled.

"What we can all discover, there is no guarantee that others will not discover, so we should rush back as soon as possible before others destroy the corpse." Xue Ji said.

"You mean, First Prince?" Li Luo thought hard.

"In the previous battle between the Celestial Clan and the Demon Clan, the Eldest Prince led the army. I had a battle with him, but his skill was very high back then, much higher than Shi Lin. That one is just a middle-level expert, so it is very likely that he is not the real eldest prince." Xue Ji said slowly.

"Could it be that the real eldest prince has already been killed?" Li Luo was secretly startled, "Then this one, will he be killed too!"

"So we have to go back quickly." Xue Ji said, speeding up again.

When the two returned to the magic palace, they saw that the guards in the palace were in a hurry and in chaos.It's not good to leave the secret path, something happened, so he hurriedly stopped a guard and asked, "Where are you going, what happened?"

"Something happened to the prison where the eldest prince was held. Suddenly, many corpses of demons were found inside. The eldest prince also disappeared. Now the eldest princess has summoned us to search for the first prince." The guard said, and left in a hurry.

"It's broken!" Li Luo took a look at Xue Ji, and the two of them ran towards the dungeon tacitly. Before they even got to the dungeon, they saw many guards gathering outside.

Xue Ji and Li Luo walked towards the place where the eldest prince was held, and saw that there were many corpses of demons lying here and there, and their deaths were horrific, with blood flowing like a river. The room of the eldest prince should have been closed, but the door was wide open , the blood flowing out of it meanders down the steps.

"It's really insane." Li Luo said softly, this was the first time she saw so many people died, some of the corpses were piled up together.

Seeing that Liluo was about to walk into the room, Xue Ji grabbed her. "Let me go in, you wait for me outside."

Li Luo shook his head with a solemn expression. "I'm not afraid, you don't have to worry." Then he lifted his foot and walked in.

The inside is the same as the outside, there are demon corpses, Li Luo can tell from their clothes that these demons should be servants of the magic palace, and some of them come from unknown places, and they are also dressed strangely.

"Master Blood, why are you here?" A male voice came from outside.

Li Luo is now in the room, people outside seem not to notice her, she looked around the room, saw something in the corner, hurried over to pick it up, and put it in her arms.

Li Luo could be seen from the direction of Xueji, he said calmly: "I heard that the devil world has suffered such a catastrophe, so I came here to see if I can help you." He blocked the door so that people outside could see not inside.

"It's too bloody here, not to mention it's a matter of the devil world, how can you bother Mr. Xue?"

Seeing that Liluo had put away his things, Xue Ji made way for him. "You said, let's take a look at this and leave."

Li Luo walked out of the room, glanced at Xue Ji, and the two walked out in tandem in tacit understanding.

There were already guards in the yard inspecting the corpse, and Li Luo and Xue Ji had been out of the prison until they found a place where there was no one and stopped. A finger cot.

"Gloves?" Xue Ji held the finger cots in his hand and looked at them. Seeing that there were still some Xue Ji on them, it seemed that he used them to kill someone.

"Isn't this a shadow thing?" Li Luo was surprised, "When we fought against him before, he used this thing to overshadow me, and almost got caught by the dark hook on it."

"Shadow is dead, his things appeared elsewhere, so naturally they didn't come from him." Xue Ji looked at the fingertips coldly.

"Shi Qianye?" Li Luo blurted out, "Things that can possess shadows, and can go in and out of the prison like no one's land, I'm afraid she is the only one who can manage such a mass murder."

"Go and see Shi Qianye." Xue Ji said lightly.

The two went to Shi Qianye's bedroom, and saw a group of attendants kneeling outside, the atmosphere was very oppressive, Li Luo stepped forward and asked softly, "Is the eldest princess inside?"

The kneeling little maid nodded. "The Eldest Princess won't let us in. Miss Li, you have a good relationship with the Eldest Princess. Can you go in and see the Princess? I'm afraid that something will happen to her."

Li Luo glanced at Xue Ji suspiciously, seeing him nodding to herself, the two of them bypassed the crowd and entered the bedroom.

Going around the screen, I saw Shi Qianye sitting slumped by the bed, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her hair was disheveled in sadness. Hearing the movement, he raised his eyes and looked at them. "You are here."

"Eldest princess, what's wrong with you?" Li Luo walked over and knelt down beside her.

Shi Qianye slowly spread out his palm, and what he held turned out to be Shadow's fingertips!Li Luo glanced at Xue Ji in surprise, Xue Ji also looked puzzled.

"This is something from Shadow, and I found it where the eldest prince was imprisoned." Shi Qianye said very sadly.

"Why is the shadow thing at the eldest prince's place?" Li Luo asked.

"This pair of fingertips was originally a pair. He never left his hand, because I gave it to him. Later, I didn't find this pair of fingertips on his body. I didn't expect it to be with the First Prince. I always thought Shadow betrayed me and hated him to the core, only now did he realize that he deliberately defected to the First Prince for me, but was killed by the First Prince in the end." Shi Qianye said with a sob.

"You mean, Shadow didn't really betray you?" Li Luo pretended to be surprised. Although she already knew about it, she didn't expect Shi Qianye to tell it by herself. It's very different.

"That's right, after the incident was revealed, An Ying wanted to come to me, but I turned him away. I should have listened to what he said at that time, otherwise I wouldn't have misunderstood him until he died." Shi Qianye said .

"Dead people can't be resurrected, the eldest princess is sorry." Li Luo patted Shi Qianye's shoulder, and looked back at Xue Ji.

Xue Ji said indifferently: "It is better to find the eldest prince as soon as possible."

"You're right, I blamed me for being too soft-hearted. I thought he was my big brother all the time, and I just put him under house arrest, but he did such a crazy thing and killed so many people to escape. If he is caught this time, I will I will never let him go again!" Shi Qianye's eyes became dark.

Li Luo and Xue Ji exited Shi Qianye's room and walked slowly outside.

"If it is true according to what Shi Qianye said, all of this has an explanation. The person was killed by the First Prince, including the things found in the dungeon, which also show that the First Prince had contact with Shadow. Shi Qianye did a lot of things." Li Luo said, "Could we have thought too much at the beginning, maybe Shi Qianye really didn't know about these things?"

"What you see is always what others want you to see. If you want to pursue the truth, you have to think more clearly." Xue Ji said to Li Luo.

"This bastard, let me kill him!" There was a commotion outside, and it was Shi Lin's voice.

Li Luo's secret path was not good, so he rushed out together with Xue Ji, and sure enough, he saw Shi Lin being dragged by several servants, struggling and roaring, and opposite him was the eldest prince who was bound by chains.

"The eldest prince was captured?" Li Luo marveled at the fact that the eldest prince's skills were not very high, and he was captured so quickly.
