Qing Tian was walking listlessly on the way back to the room.

She stayed at the place agreed on the letter paper given to her by the Emperor of Heaven for an entire hour, but he never came.

Since he wrote to invite her on a date, but broke his promise, why?

She had just walked near her room when a maid hurried over.

"Princess Qingtian, it's not good!"

"What's the matter?" Qing Tian asked absent-mindedly.

"The demon... something happened to the demon!"

Qing Tian raised his head suddenly.

When she arrived at the grove where her mother died, her mother's soul had already disappeared, and she was annihilated in flying ashes. Apart from her purse and jewelry, there was only a bloody saber left on the ground.

At this time, the Ghost King, Heavenly Emperor, Demon King and others arrived with their entourages.

The ghost king walked around the pile of relics on the ground, and made a serious analysis: "According to the situation at the scene of this crime, this saber must have been left by the murderer, as long as we find the owner of the saber , and found the murderer who killed the Demon Lord. Come on, put away this saber, and take it to the best swordsmith in the city to identify it, and see if you can find the source of this sword. Come again Group people, go to seal the scene with the king, check the people attending the banquet, and arrest the murderer..."

"No need." Qing Tian said in a low voice.

"This sword is mine."

"Ah!" The ghost king turned pale with shock.

"Princess Qingtian, there is no overnight feud between mother and daughter, why did you do such a rebellious thing as killing your mother..."

"What a complete idiot." The demon king glanced at the ghost king contemptuously, his stupidity was simply unbearable.

When he raised his head, he saw the Emperor of Heaven looked at him thoughtfully, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and turned his head to the side.

The ghost king continued to investigate the case solemnly.

"Princess Qingtian, from the current point of view, you are the most suspected person for killing the Demon Lord. Please tell me your whereabouts last night honestly."

"Last night I..." Qing Tian couldn't help hesitating.

"Princess Qingtian has some unspeakable secrets?" Ghost King asked.

"No." Qing Tian hesitated.

The thing about the Emperor of Heaven's invitation to her last night was very strange. At that time, she was only full of joy and didn't have time to think about it. Now it seems more like a trap.

"Last night, I received a letter. His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven invited me to meet on the west lawn at five o'clock..."

The Emperor of Heaven just felt that everyone's eyes were cast on him, with a look of "ah, there is adultery!"

"Then Princess Qingtian went on a date with His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven last night?"

"Yes...but His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor did not come."

"Then, Your Majesty, what were you doing last night?" Ghost King asked.

"I..." Before the Heavenly Emperor could speak, the Demon King jumped out.

"Last night from You to Hai, the Emperor of Heaven has been playing chess with me."

"Oh, do you have any witnesses?"

"Of course there is." The Demon King said with confidence, "Last night, the servants you sent to the guest room, Ghost King, came to refill tea every half an hour. They can all be witnesses."

The Heavenly Emperor couldn't help frowning, no wonder the demon king who didn't like tea that day would...

What is this, use him as a bait, kill the Demon Lord, and then come to testify for him and help him clear the suspicion?

The Emperor of Heaven couldn't help sneering.

From the very beginning, he guessed that the demon king did it.

Those who can ask Qing Tian out in his name must know that Qing Tian loves him, and there are very few people who know this alone at the banquet.

Mozun Liuying is powerful, but there is no trace of a fight at the place where he died, which shows that the other party is someone she trusts very much, and he did it when she was defenseless, and he used Qingtian's sword. The answer It's almost ready to come out.

fantasy.

It's just that these are all his inferences, and there is no evidence for them.

What's more, the servant who was brought by the demon king to serve tea and water not only provided an alibi for him, but also provided an alibi for the demon king himself.

The illusion does not require the illusion setter to control it on the spot, as long as it is set in advance and triggered on time.

But this does not mean that it is the demon king killed by the demon king....

It's okay if a person is just smart, but it's okay if he's just vicious.

What if it was both smart and vicious?

Things in the world are like chess, mediocre people take one step and watch one step, ordinary people take one step and count three moves, wise men take one step and make ten moves.

Interrupting his conversation with Qingtian and dragging him to play chess is not only to lure Qingtian out in his name, but also to produce evidence of alibi, killing two birds with one stone.

The Emperor of Heaven has always been proud of his skill in chess, but who would have thought that he would become a pawn this time.

The demon king really played well in this game of chess.

The ghost king continued to ask.

"Princess Qingtian, you said that His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven invited you out yesterday, do you have evidence?"

"Yes." Qing Tian took out a piece of letter paper from his sleeve and handed it to the Ghost King.

The ghost king looked at it for a long time, with doubts on his face.

"Princess Qingtian, this letter is blank."

Qing Tian didn't believe it, so he grabbed the letter paper and saw that it was blank.

"how come!"

How could the demon king leave such an obvious handle.The Heavenly Emperor sighed in his heart.

The Ghost King said solemnly: "Princess Qingtian, you said that you were invited out by the Emperor of Heaven last night, but there was neither witness nor material evidence. You were not in the room last night, and the demon king was killed by your sword." , so you are the biggest suspect."

There was a commotion among the followers in the demon world, and someone immediately stood up and stopped the ghost king.

"What nonsense, how could our princess kill the Demon Lord!"

"But now it seems that's the case..." Ghost King argued.

Suddenly, an arrow shot across the sky like a shooting star, and the ghost king fell down.

The crowd was in a commotion, and no one could see where the arrow came from.

The Heavenly Emperor and the Demon King looked at each other almost at the same time, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The ghost king was assassinated, and the case of the demon king's death naturally couldn't be investigated any further.With the death of the Demon Lord, there is no need to discuss the truce agreement of the Three Realms.Everyone dispersed and went back to their room to prepare for going home.

The demon king and the heavenly emperor returned to the door of their room with their own thoughts, and the heavenly emperor stopped the demon king.

"The ghost king's assassination is also related to you?"

The demon king bit his lower lip slightly.

The word "also" was used very well by the Emperor of Heaven.

"I'm not interested in that old ghost."

The Heavenly Emperor raised his eyebrows, which is tantamount to admitting that the Demon Lord was killed by him.

He was quite unhappy in his heart: "The two worlds are at war, and each of them will win or lose based on their ability. What is your assassination like this?"

The demon king still had a playful smile on his face.

"What's the matter, His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven wants to avenge your little lover?"

The Heavenly Emperor looked at the Demon King and could only frown. He was sure that he had no evidence, it was all guesswork, and it was useless to say it, so he was so reckless.

Seeing the helpless look of the Emperor of Heaven, the Demon King was secretly relieved.

Long before he came to the ghost world, he made this plan.

Sansang, whom he supported, was losing ground in the battle with Elder Bi Fang, and had come to the Demon Realm many times to ask him for support.

Although he has always looked down on Sansang, that trash, but the two of them are bound on the same boat. If Sansang can't defeat Bi Fang to win the power of the Bird Clan, then all the human, material and financial resources invested by the Monster Clan will be paid. East flow.

Bi Fang's supporter was the Demon Realm, so he made this plan to kill the Demon Lord directly.

The so-called illusion was originally used to attack the weakest point of human will.The matter between Qing Tian and Emperor Tian is Liu Ying's heart disease, and only by making a fuss about this matter can she be disturbed and kill her when she is not prepared.

Once Liu Ying dies, the demon clan will be in chaos, but it will be a good show.

The Heavenly Emperor glanced at him, turned around and left, and the Demon King hurriedly followed.

"Hey, wait for me, don't go."

"Differences do not conspire with each other. Please feel free, the demon king, this seat is going to rest."

"Don't be like this. Didn't I clear the suspicion for you? At most, I won't use you next time. Hey, don't go."

In order to get rid of the demon king, the emperor of heaven directly used a teleportation technique to reach the room of everyone in the demon world.

He saw Qing Tian sitting in the room wearing white clothes and filial piety with a haggard look.He coughed lightly and walked into the room.

"Qing Tian."

Qing Tian raised his head and saw the Emperor of Heaven.

"His Majesty."

He said softly: "People cannot be resurrected after death, so don't be too sad. If you need help, tell me, and I will do my best."

A young man next to him bowed his hands to the Emperor of Heaven: "Bi Nian thanked His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven on behalf of Qingtian."

"I don't know who this is?"

"My father is Bi Fang, the elder of the Bird Clan."

"Oh."

The Emperor of Heaven thought, he had heard that Liu Ying wanted Qing Tian to marry the son of Bi Fang, the elder of the Niao clan, so it was him.

At this time Qing Tian said: "Bi Nian, can you go out first? I will have a private conversation with His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven."

Bi Nian glanced at the two of them, then went out silently.

The Emperor of Heaven was rather embarrassed.He asked himself about his relationship with Qingtian, and there was nothing he couldn't say to others, but what Qingtian said made it seem that the two of them were very ambiguous.

Qing Tian said: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for your opinion."

"What's the matter?"

"Just now the news came from the Demon Realm that the Zuo Guardian, who has always been at odds with my mother, has gathered people to ambush me on the only way back to the Demon Realm, and is going to attack me when I go back to seize the Demon Lord's position."

"When my mother and I came out this time, we didn't bring many people with us, and most of them stayed in the demon world. The left guard is powerful, and I don't have enough prestige in the demon world. Even if I bypass his ambush and return to the demon world, it may not be possible You can beat him."

"It's not my business to fight or not to fight now. The Great Elder and several other elders have been my master since childhood, and my mother's confidantes. If I fail to fight for the Demon Lord, they will definitely be punished by Zuo Dharma. It hurts my family. The arrow is on the string and I have to launch it. Even if I want to quit at this time, it is impossible."

"Several elders advised me that if I want to defeat Guardian Zuo, the best way is to form an alliance with Elder Bi Fang's Bird Clan. And the fastest way to form an alliance is to marry."

"Your Majesty thinks, how about this idea...?"

"I think...very good."

Qing Tian, ​​who was wearing filial piety, smiled sadly, like a white flower withered in the air.

"In this way, I thank His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven."

"Nothing else, please go back, Your Majesty."
