Chapter 3210: Night Demon
in a low voice. 。"Oh, you found a suitable place for your trials" Fang Yu asked. 。"Well, I received word that an ancient relic site has opened in Huaibei. I intend to go and have a look by myself." 。S...Empress Xiayue remained silent.
At this moment, the fairy light on her body slowly dimmed, gradually revealing her face.
Fang Yu had already seen her face before.
But at this moment, the Empress Xiao Yue's countenance was different from before!
Her left cheek, skin color changed from white to black.
And the irises, they turned from white to black, pupils flickering with a red glow!
The other half of the face is the same as before.
But somehow, this face at this moment... looks extremely frightening, and there's a sense of being split.
Not just Fang Yu, but even those royal family members around him, even those of the subsidiary bloodline who were closer to Empress Xiaoyue, all had expressions of shock!
Empress Xiaoyue... had never shown herself in such a manner before them!
"Mother, Mother…"
In the distance, Lu Chen's eyes widened in disbelief.
Her closeness to Empress Xiaoyue far surpasses that of any other member of the branch lineage!
But she had never seen her own mother...in such a terrifying form!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The left half of Empress Xiaoyue's body blazed with a layer of pitch-black flames.
"What is this..."
In the distance, Qiu Qi Junzhu's beautiful brows furrowed in confusion as she questioned, "Such a form... how does it feel a bit like..."
"What does it look like" Junyang Prince looked at Qiuqi County Princess and asked.
In terms of scholarship, he was far inferior to the erudite Qiu Qi County Lord.
“I once saw a record in an ancient book about an old and rare demon clan that went extinct tens of thousands of years ago.” Princess Qiyun stared straight at Empress Xiaoyue, murmuring, “This demon clan was called the Dark Night Demon Clan. According to the records, the Dark Night Demon Clan once represented the pinnacle of the demon race, ruling over the entire demon race, even more powerful than the current four major demon clans.”
"The Empress's current form... matches perfectly with the description of the Night Demon in that ancient book."
"Night demons... a great demon of the night!" Prince Junyang's face changed slightly.
“The Night Demon Race is a name for a whole clan, while the Night Great Demon is the leader of the Night Demon Race, equivalent to Father Emperor's position over the entire ancient demon race.” Princess Qiu Qi said slowly, “Come to think of it, we actually don't know about the Empress’s origins… besides Father Emperor, no one in the royal family knows.”
Perhaps...
"You mean to say the Queen hails from the Night Demon Clan" Prince Junyang asked.
"No, I think... she is the direct descendant of the Night Demon!" Autumn Qi County Master said resolutely.
Upon hearing this, Prince Junyang's eyes were shocked.
The descendant of an ancient demon clan's leader!
Is this the Empress's true identity!
If this is true, why has the Empress never revealed her identity
This level of identity doesn't need to be kept secret, does it
"Fang Yu..."
As the entire audience was stunned into silence, Empress Xiaoyue spoke again.
Her voice had become extremely raspy, like the sharp voices of two aging old women merged together. It was both intriguing and terrifying to hear.
At this moment, Fang Yu was also a little confused.
He hasn't detected any aura of the Sacred Court from Empress Xiaoyue yet.
But Empress Xiaoyue's current form is obviously abnormal as well.
“Before, I thought you were pretty, but now...you’re not.” Fang Yu frowned. “Especially your voice, it’s too awful to listen to.”
"Well."
Upon hearing this, Empress Xiaoyue let out a cold laugh.
Her left cheek rose in a smirk, and the crimson pupils within her dark eyes glittered.
"This is my true appearance. What you saw before was merely a disguise." the Empress of the Azure Moon said.
Her words seemed to be directed at both the person she was speaking to and all the royal members present!
“People should accept their appearance, whether beautiful or ugly... uh, you don't seem to be human, but the point still stands.” Fang Yu said. “Why bother with pretense”
"Do you think I want to disguise myself It's just that within this royal family, certain beings dislike seeing my true appearance because... it would remind them of some unpleasant memories." Empress Xiaoyue said coldly.
Her voice was still very unpleasant.
But her words sent a chill down the spines of all the cultivators present.
Who is the "someone within the royal family" that Empress Xiaoyue refers to
It's just because of dislike that the Empress Xiaoyue has maintained her disguise for so many years...
This existence's identity... there is only one possibility.
Ancient Demon Emperor!
What the Empress Xiaoyue said was the ancient Demon Emperor!
Not only the members of the royal family around him, but Fang Yu also thought of this.
"Bad memories What do you mean" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and asked in a soft voice.
About the ancient Demon Emperor, he knew very little.
Ever since he arrived in the Demon Realm, he had been solely focused on investigating the Holy Institution.
Since the Empress of Heavenly Moon is willing to reveal some information, he naturally wants to hear more!
Anyway, it's a guaranteed profit! Black... if you have something to ask, just spit it out! Once we're done, we're heading straight to that dreadful Bi family." The little carp sat on the sofa behind him, legs crossed, looking effortl...
