“Qing Yan did not discover anything.” Only then did Huan Qing Yan understand that Ji Mo Ya being here was due to the same reason as her, the Greater Demon. “However, Young Master Ya might have other methods of tracking, let Qing Yan accompany Young Master Ya with your search.”
Ji Mo Ya replied, “You should have guessed who is the person that is possessed by the Greater Demon, right?”
“Young Master Ya, Qing Yan does not know.”
Huan Qing Yan was firm with her stance of not knowing, despite Ji Mo Ya’s inquisitive eyes staring at her, she was not shaken.
Suddenly, Ji Mo Ya smiled, “If you do not know, then let this Young Master remind you, Huan Jiu Li of your family is the strongest suspect, the leads we have gathered so far have all pointed towards him; the royal family have also confirmed that he had disappeared, likely on the run.”
Huan Qing Yan’s heart tightened, “Impossible, Brother Jiu Li is a spirit master, how could he be possessed?”
“The royal family has already put up a secret warrant of arrest, as for what is the truth, we will find out everything when he is caught.”
Huan Qing Yan saw that he was not joking and knew that he was not lying to her.
Her heart was turned upside down, was it really Brother Jiu Li? But she had never detected any trace of demon energy from him before!
She had some minor suspicions, but she did not expect the royal family to have reached the stage of acquiring enough evidence already.
It was also to be expected, since that time when the incident happened in Princess Cang Xia’s palace as well as the incident when some of the Huan Clan relatives were wiped out, all these factors pointed towards Huan Jiu Li as the most likely suspect.
“Brother Jiu Li has relations to my Huan Family, but I heard that after a person was possessed, their will would be controlled by the demon, yet a Greater Demon would not be bothered about ties, why would it help our Huan Family?” Huan Qing Yan was still unwilling to believe.
Ji Mo Ya calmly replied, “This is something that this Young Master was curious about too.”
At that moment, a squad of the Ninth Prince’s guards appeared on the street; they seemed to be searching for someone.
When Huan Qing Yan saw them, she immediately felt that this was bad!
It must be Bai Chen Feng, that trash, who have given the order to his men to arrest her.
Therefore, without another word, she immediately hid behind Ji Mo Ya when the guards walked into the magic equipment store.
“Everyone listen up, has anyone seen a young lady in white? This demoness used false words to instigate people, and we are under orders of Lord Ninth to arrest her for investigation purposes…”
The Feather Guards walked up towards them without Ji Mo Ya ordering them.
This quickly caused the guards of the Ninth Prince to politely leave the place.
Huan Qing Yan sighed in relief.
“Young Master Ya, where do you think my Brother Jiu Li is hiding? Is it possible that he returned to the Huan Estate to hide?”
Ji Mo Ya replied, “If he still has control over himself, I don’t think he will.” Returning to the Huan Estate would only implicate them.
Huan Qing Yan quickly sound out, “Then Young Master Ya, if you encounter Brother Jiu Li, will you arrest him?”
“What do you wish?” Ji Mo Ya gracefully asked her as he looked at her eyes.
Huan Qing Yan blinked a couple of times, “I hope Young Master Ya be magnanimous; my Brother Jiu Li is also a victim, so can you only force the Greater Demon out of his body without harming his life?”
Ji Mo Ya firmly replied, “Not possible! A person that was controlled by a Greater Demon for such a long time would basically have his consciousness demonized; even if we successfully force the Greater Demon out of his body, he will still become a demon man.”
Huan Qing Yan recalled some information from the reincarnated girl’s memories regarding demon man.
Demon man were humans who trained using demon arts or techniques, or have absorbed the power of Greater Demons, becoming the slaves of these Greater Demons.
These people have evil and wicked minds; like demons, they would also devour the spirit treasures of people to strengthen themselves, thriving in ma.s.sacres and carnage.
