I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1262

Chapter 1262: Chapter 482: Three Women Reunited! Bringing a Princess Home!

Chu Yanli nodded and said, "Zining noticed something amiss before Wu Lie made his move, so she preemptively set up the Mystic Light Tracing Shadow Array to capture the images and had Fan Sijin, her personal female officer at the time, carry them out of the Imperial Palace..."

The Mystic Light Tracing Shadow Array is mentioned in the "Great Change Heavenly Origin Formation Solution."

This is an extremely mysterious array with a very special mechanism. It doesn’t record in real time but reconstructs images retroactively.

That is to say, when the Emperor and others entered the palace back then, the array was not in operation, so it wouldn’t have been detected. After they left, Fan Sijin activated the array to record the reconstructed scenes into the Image Stone.

This indeed was a relatively safe method.

But Chen Mo was still somewhat puzzled and asked, "Since Empress Xu realized the Emperor was going to act, why didn’t she just escape the palace?"

Chu Yanli said in a deep voice, "Wu Lie finally found a naturally Military Dao compatible mother host; how could he let her leave so easily? Besides, if Zining escaped, the Xu Family would certainly face a disaster. By her nature, she would rather die than implicate her family!"

"Over the years, Zining also secretly investigated the Imperial Family. The continuous disappearance of eunuchs in the Qianji Palace was first discovered by her, just not expecting Wu Lie to act so quickly..."

At this point, Chen Mo had roughly sorted out the cause and effect.

Xu Zining, this Empress, was actually a carefully selected vessel by Wu Lie, with the purpose of cultivating a "shell" compatible for himself, so that when his lifespan ran out, he could seize it and be reborn.

This could also explain why the Crown Prince was virtually confined in Linqing Palace before meeting Chen Mo, without ever setting foot outside.

After all, this was Wu Lie’s intended vessel, allowing no room for error.

As for the subsequent relaxation of surveillance, even almost being used as a "sacrifice" on the day of the grand ceremony, that was because Wu Lie had found a better replacement—

which was Chen Mo.

Returning Ruins, Fate, Cause and Effect, Reincarnation...

With just the Six Paths Origin, he already holds four, and his body contains two different Dragon Qis. The creation of heaven and earth gathered in one body is a full set of enhancements.

But Wu Lie did not expect that under such a sky net, Chen Mo could still escape entirely. Now, with no other options, he could only once again turn his attention to the Crown Prince, this "backup plan"...

"Back then, when Zining entered the palace, I was actually against it; my intuition told me there was something wrong with it."

"But imperial orders are hard to defy, and with the war in the Southern Border being urgent, there was no extra strength to interfere in this matter, which ultimately led to this great disaster."

Chu Yanli’s hand clenched tightly inside his sleeves, his eyes showing a look of regret, "Looking back now, when Zining handed over the Soldier Control Seal to me, everything was already foreboding. Wu Lie not only harmed Zining but also intended to exterminate the Xu Family..."
