I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314: Chapter 143 Consort Yu: You dare touch my people?! (6K)_3

Chen Mo activated his Vision Power, bringing his view closer to clearly see the four large characters "Linyang County Government" above the gate!

"Let’s give it a try. If it doesn’t work, we’ll make a run for it."

As a member of the Sky Scale Guard, this is the life he chose.

Since he’s encountered this situation, he can’t just ignore it; after all, there are tens of thousands of lives at stake!

Chen Mo soared into the air, darting away like a bolt of lightning.

...

Linyang County Government.

Inside the courtroom, dozens of corpses lay scattered on the ground, all clad in black uniforms, the government officers’ bodies shriveled as their Essence Blood was completely drained, dying in a most tragic state.

The County Magistrate dressed in green official robes was tied to a pillar, his face as pale as paper, his voice hoarse, "Jiang Qiyuan, you dare use the lives of thousands to refine Gu! If this is known to the court, they will surely send troops to annihilate the Gu God Sect!"

An elderly man in luxurious attire sat in a chair, his figure lean and slightly hunched, yet possessing a strong aura of authority, with the hint of a predatory glance in his eyebrows, he calmly replied:

"What does this have to do with my Gu God Sect?"

"It was clearly County Magistrate Jiao who strayed onto an evil path, using the Illusion Array to confuse the townspeople, causing them to slaughter each other, extracting their Essence Blood to cultivate demonic arts, eventually losing control and being attacked by his own Cultivation Technique..."

"Nonsense!"

Jiao Rui’s chest heaved, veins bulging on his forehead, glaring at the elder, "Do you think the court is incompetent? Such a grand affair will surely be investigated thoroughly! You won’t escape!"

The elder shook his head and said, "But everything I stated is true. You’ve practiced the Cultivation Technique for five years, you personally carved the Array, the evidence is irrefutable, is there a problem?"

Jiao Rui’s expression was extremely unpleasant, a trace of despair flickered in his eyes.

The Gu God Sect is deeply rooted in the Southern Wilderness and holds significant power in Nantu State, practically like a local emperor.

From the Prefectural Governor down to the County Magistrate, almost all are entangled with them, including Jiao Rui.

Apart from dealings of power and money, the Gu God Sect also provided him with cultivation resources, including the so-called "Devouring Essence Divine Skill" and "Spirit Gathering Array"!

They even had his men collect the townspeople’s hair and nails!

Unexpectedly, they were ruthless enough to plan this far!

For five years they had been plotting against him!

At this moment, a black robe attendant said quietly, "Grand Elder, it’s about time."

Jiang Qiyuan nodded and said, "Keep a close watch on it, there’s no room for any mistakes."

"Yes."

The attendant quickly walked out of the courtroom.

Jiang Qiyuan’s gaze was deep, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrest.

He had been planning this for years, originally intending to act after the frost period, but now forced to start early, inevitably leaving some flaws.

"Yu Jie, Zhu Hui, Zhu Ming..."

"In just a few months, three protectors in the Southern District have fallen, yet we don’t even know who the enemy is."

"The Hierarch is about to emerge, as the elder of the Southern District, I cannot escape blame. Given the Hierarch’s temper, the consequences could be..."

Jiang Qiyuan exhaled a heavy breath.

Now the only solution is to quickly refine the Holy-grade Gu Worm "Yin Extremity Gu".

Fortunately, the Holy Daughter of the Moon Brilliance Sect has the Innate Extreme Yin Body, perfect for being used as a Gu Vessel.

Recently, Ji Lianxing’s attitude has grown increasingly distant; since that’s the case, he might as well squeeze the last value out of the Moon Brilliance Sect...

"Hm, the sect was destroyed, yet they still care about so-called principles; truly foolish to the extreme."

"Ji Lianxing is strong, but she’s a lone tree without support; once the Hierarch emerges, hardly a ripple will be made!"

Boom—

Suddenly, a loud noise interrupted Jiang Qiyuan’s contemplation.

Looking up, he saw a figure, surrounded by lightning, crash into the front courtyard, the black robe fluttering, figure as tall and straight as a pine, a long blade in hand like jade.

"Who goes there?!"

Two black robe attendants shouted sharply.

Chen Mo’s gaze shifted past them, seeing the courtroom full of corpses, his eyes turned colder, he shouted loudly:

"Sky Scale Guard in operation, all those involved in the case surrender immediately, anyone daring to resist will be executed on the spot!"

"Sky Scale Guard?!"

The two were shocked upon hearing it.

Chen Mo waved his hand, throwing a Mystic Iron Token toward one of the attendants.

The black robe attendant instinctively raised his hand to catch it.

The next moment, a streak of lightning flashed, a figure swiftly appeared before him.

Brilliant Sword Qi erupted, tearing his body apart!

Amidst the torrential blood rain, a jet-black glow emitted a piercing howl, shooting towards the other attendant’s brow!

The man was prepared, waving his sleeves, Gu Poison Worms surged out, blocking Xuanling externally, yet the flame attached to it exploded, swallowing all the Gu Poison Worms!
