id stiffness.They couldn't have dreamed that this imminent clash would end so swiftly and effortlessly.As for Xu Jia Lu and Mu Qing Ran, Fang Yu's victory was predictable.But that's too fast, isn't it...Fang Yu and his entourage left the main hall and walked towards the palace gates.

"Master, what's going on Is the Empress trying to start a fight" Han Miaoyi asked impatiently.

Fāng Yǔ glanced at Hán Miào Yī and smiled faintly, "Indeed, I want to fight."

Upon hearing this, Qi Nuo's beautiful eyes were filled with worry as she said, "Special Envoy Fang, you mean... the Empress opposes your continued investigation into Sister Nanyuan"

"Well, she was very firm and completely ignored the Demon Emperor's Decree in my hand," Fang Yu said calmly. "She wants to protect Nan Yuan County Princess at all costs."

Kino's beautiful eyes widened, her gaze filled with surprise and confusion.

"Qinuo, do you think there's a possibility that the Empress has been infiltrated by the Holy Court" Fang Yu asked.

Qiao's eyes were full of shock. After a moment, she shook her head and said, "I think... it's impossible. How could the Empress consort allegiance to an external force"

"What does she mean by this now" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes. "Knowing that Princess Nanyuan is suspected, she still insists on protecting her, even disregarding the words of the Ancient Demon Emperor."

"After all, Lady Nan Yuan is one of the core members of the subsidiary bloodline, and the representative of the subsidiary bloodline is the Empress... It's understandable that the Empress doesn't want Lady Nan Yuan's reputation to be damaged," Qi Nuo said softly.

Fang Yu frowned slightly and said, "So it seems that your royal family has indeed split into factions The main faction is the blood unified lineage, headed by the Ancient Demon Emperor. The sub-faction is the blood unified lineage, headed by the Empress"

"I understand what you mean," Fang Yu nodded and said, "Of course, I wouldn't dare to openly divide factions. But in reality...since your father emperor proposed the concept of main and deputy bloodlines, your royal family couldn't possibly be united."

"Special Envoy, our investigation might have progressed too quickly..." Qino thought for a moment, hesitated, and said, "It's just the one-sided word of the Wan Shang Demon King... perhaps it's not enough evidence. Investigating Princess Nanyuan as the core of the secondary bloodline... is tantamount to confronting the Empress."

"Now that the Emperor is in seclusion, without his support, it will be difficult for us to make further progress."

"Then what do you think should be done Stop the investigation" Fang Yu asked back.

"We can only wait for the Emperor to come out of seclusion...and then make plans." Qino replied.

"No, that's too slow." Fang Yu immediately refused.

"Qinuo paused for a moment, then said: "Special Envoy Fang, I understand your feelings. But now Master Yuan is also on the Empress's side. If we continue to investigate, it will be too difficult. They are very likely to surround you..."

Qi Nuo's idea, Fang Yu agreed with, and in his heart he also understood very well.

With the Emperor's Decree of Demons in hand, Fang Yu now seems to be able to walk sideways within this ancient demon clan.

But in fact, all his power was bestowed by the ancient Demon Emperor.

Now that the ancient demon emperor is in seclusion, then…meaning that the biggest backer cannot show themselves.

While standing before Fang Yu, the Empress and Yuan Taishi were, in fact, the second and third most powerful figures within the ancient Yao Clan.

Fang Yu is after all just an outsider cultivator, and within the ancient demon clan, he has no foundation whatsoever.

The other party has too many ways to deal with Fang Yu.

Even if Fang Yu was killed, one could always find various reasons to explain it to the Ancient Demon Emperor afterwards.

The Ancient Demon Emperor might feel angry and take some punitive measures.

But no matter how severe the punishment, it wouldn't be justified to harm those true core members of the royal family for Fang Yu, a foreign cultivator they had rarely met.

Therefore, even with Fang Yu's status as the demon king's envoy and the Imperial Decree in his hand, it wouldn't serve as a get-out-of-jail-free card while the Ancient Demon Emperor was in seclusion.

Of course, Fang Yu had already mentally prepared for this after figuring out the empress's attitude.

What he said to Yuan Taishi in front of the main hall was actually a provocation, and also a declaration of war.

Anyway, he is not going to stop the investigation.

He must obtain more clues about the Holy Institution to find his missing senior brother!

This is the most important thing!

"I have already made my stance clear to Master Yuan. If he dares to make a move, I will fight back," Fang Yu sneered.

"Lord Fangte, if you were to act within the Demon Realm, I fear it would bring about even greater calamity!" Qino advised. "I think Master Yuan is trying to provoke you right now, forcing you to make a move...and then using that as an excuse to turn the entire royal family against you..."

But if you don't take action, he has no way to start. You have the Demon Emperor's Order in your hand, he would absolutely not dare to do anything out of line!

"Yes, this old man has no other tricks. He can only make a big splash using my human identity, but... so what" Fang Yu said expressionlessly and calmly.

Qiao Nuo looked at Fang Yu's determined expression, wanting to say something, but ultimately held back.

She knew Fang Yu would not back down.

"Princess Qi'no, given the current situation, it's best for you to withdraw. Joining me... might put you at odds with the entire Ancient Demon Royal Clan in the future. That would be very difficult for you, and even dangerous." Fang Yu said.and the extremely arrogant thief from last night had both been to Star Deathwheel!That place... it is rumored that once you go in, you can never come out, not even with heaven-defying abilities!Howeve...
