Di Mo Jiu stared at the girl in his arms. There was no trace of pity in his eyes.

Jun Qiyan looked at the person who was just inches away from her, and suddenly, a myriad of emotions welled up within her. She wanted to reach out and touch Di Mo Jiu's face, but someone was holding her back.

"Hey, has Lord Demon Lord heard of …" Love at first sight? "

Jun Qiyan raised her eyebrows as she looked at Di Mo Jiu with her bewitching little eyes, as if hinting at something.

Love at first sight?

Di Mo Jiu narrowed his eyes, obviously dissatisfied with this answer. He let out a sneer from the tip of his nose.

There was not a single trace of emotion in his voice, and it was as if he had been frozen by ice for ten thousand years. "I would definitely not like a dirty and dissolute woman like you!"

Each word was as sharp as a blade, causing Jun Qiyan's heart to slow down.

Jun Qiyan narrowed her eyes and smiled. It seemed as if the world had turned pale.

"You don't like me at all?"

Jun Qiyan mumbled to herself as a strange emotion flashed through her eyes.

What kind of joke was this? In ten thousand years, she would be able to take down the Ninth Lord! Even ten thousand years ago, she would be able to take down this ice mountain!

Thinking about this, Jun Qiyan felt that he had completely recovered.

Currently, Di Mo Jiu was completely unaware of the inner workings of Jun Qianyan's heart. He could only look at the girl in front of him with disgust in his heart.

"Follow me to the hall. Since you're a Holy Maiden, you have to do your duty as a Holy Maiden!"

Di Mo Jiu secretly bit his lips as if he was referring to something. Jun Qiyan frowned, treating this as a mere official business.

When the two arrived at the great hall, the elders were already seated.

The one sitting next to Di Mo Jiu was Meng. Jun Qiyan pursed her lips and didn't look at the two men.

"I believe everyone is well aware of the purpose of calling this meeting."

Di Mo Jiu's cold eyes looked around, and an endless pressure suddenly enveloped the entire hall.

"Only the few of you know that I'm leaving this time …"

The meaning of Di Mo Jiu's words were very clear.

All of the elders lowered their heads, cold sweat trickling down their bodies. A traitor had appeared within them … This was simply a fatal blow to the demons!

If he didn't get rid of this hidden danger as soon as possible …

The Elders looked at each other, unable to believe the consequences.

"Mo Jiu …" Could it be that they got the news by chance from the god race, and it's to make us suspect each other and shake the morale of the army? After all, none of us here have been able to prove our innocence. Even I am unable to prove that I am not a traitor … "

Mengmeng frowned and looked extremely conflicted. That charming expression would even cause a man to have the desire to protect her.

Di Mo Jiu's tense face softened. He gently rubbed Meng Meng's head and said in a soft voice, "Don't worry. No matter what, I won't suspect you."

Jun Qiyan rolled his eyes without any trace of politeness as he could not bear to watch the two of them 'show their affection'.

Meng Meng gently smiled and her face immediately blushed.

After that, Di Mo looked at the rest again. He slowly said, "Everyone here knows how I treat traitors. I advise you to come out by yourselves, otherwise, if I find out …"

As the sound of his voice faded, quite a few people were already shaken to the point of turning into sieves. They were all purely shocked by the pressure exuded by Di Mo Jiu.

Although Di Mo Jiu was a late stage god race evil spirit and the blood in his body was not pure, it was still stronger than the pressure from everyone present.

This was one of the reasons why he became a demon god.

He couldn't help but sigh. This man was truly a monster. In the long history of the demon race, it wasn't that there weren't any gods that had fallen, but rather the majority of them had struggled against the holy power and magic in their bodies.

In the end, his body exploded and he died.

No god race that had fallen into a demon could be like that Di Mo Jiu … He completely adapted himself to the demon race and even became a demon god.

This was something that no one dared to even think about.

"Not admitting to it?" Di Mo Jiu squinted his eyes and continued, "Check it out for me."

"I would actually like to see who has the guts to do so!" "How dare you be a monster under my nose?"

With that, a group of dark guards appeared out of nowhere.

They split into two teams and departed from the main hall.

Time passed second by second, Di Mo Jiu casually tapped on the back of the chair with his index finger, the corners of his mouth had a faint curve.

He looked to be in extreme danger.

Jun Qiyan silently cursed in his heart, "What a devil!"

After an unknown period of time, the dark guard walked into the hall, holding something that looked like an envelope in his hands.

"Your Majesty." The shadow guard handed the envelope in his hand to Di Mo Jiu.

Everyone instantly held their breath as they stared intently at the envelope in Di Mo Jiu's hand, as if they wanted to poke a hole through it.

Di Mo's eyes turned cold, and a cold light flashed across his eyes. His voice was unwavering, "Where did you find this?"

The voice of the shadow guard was like a machine, "There is a secret passage under Elder Sun's bed. There is a encrypted box in the secret passage. Where did this subordinate find it?"

With a single sentence, the man named 'Elder Sun' was sentenced to death.

"Your Excellency... No, not me! It's really not me! " The old man named Elder Sun scrambled to Di Mo Jiu's feet, his fat face covered in cold sweat.

Tears and snot couldn't help but roll down his face, revealing his ugly appearance.

Di Mo Jiu's face didn't change at all, he only coldly looked at the man who was on the verge of death.

Jun Qiyan frowned slightly as he looked at the scene in front of him. He felt especially uncomfortable in his heart.

"Oh, not you? That envelope, then tell me how to explain it! "

Di Mo Jiu threw the envelope in his hand onto Elder Sun's face, and asked again, "There is a secret passage under the bed?"

"Elder Sun, this senior has truly underestimated you!"

Di Mo Jiu's voice paused for a moment, his eyebrows raised in a threatening manner, even though he was not angry.

Elder Sun looked at the envelope in his hand and froze on the spot.

Secret passage? Envelope?

If it wasn't for the fact that he knew his lord didn't want to do this sort of thing, Elder Sun would have suspected that his lord was deliberately slandering him.

"My lord, I swear, I never betrayed you in the slightest!"

Elder Sun already couldn't care less why there was an envelope under his bed, or why there was a secret passage, concerned with proving his innocence. He didn't notice that Di Mo Jiu's eyes were already filled with killing intent.

"Elder Sun, how could you do such a thing? Mo Jiu normally treats you well, but since things have come to this, you should just admit it. It's hard to say whether Mo Jiu will care about face and let your family live."

Meng Meng's few words had turned the man's entire explanation into a quibble. Those words that sounded like an excuse for Elder Sun were a reminder to Elder Sun that if he didn't acknowledge this matter, his wife and son would be in danger.
