DEMON QUEEN

Yuan Liong Kingdom

After making sure that Queen Junyi Zu's condition was fine, Xiao Ziya went straight from the health room so that there was no need to see Mue Sanron's extremely sickening face. Xiao Ziya went towards the guest room where Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu and Master Yonzan Zu were to ask some things with them, Xiao Ziya knocked on the door of the room casually as he did not come to seek trouble or punish them both. After waiting for a few minutes, Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu finally opened the room door and stared at Xiao Ziya with a puzzled look.

"Who are you looking for?" asked Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu in a faint tone.

"I'd like to discuss some things with you, this is not a request but an order. You should know that I really do not like to be rebutted." Xiao Ziya replied firmly, instantly the look on Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu's face turned pale. The woman was afraid that Xiao Ziya would do something to her while they were conversing, however for now their relationship was both like an enemy.

"You don't have to worry because I'll just ask you a few things, I'll pay with something you like." xiao Ziya replied who could clearly see the worried look on the face of Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu.

With great force Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu followed where Xiao Ziya went, her husband was currently outside the palace because there were some things that attacked her husband to take care of. Xiao Ziya stopped at the back garden of the main palace then sat down at a small place reserved for members of the Eastern Star Royal family to relax. Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu sat before Xiao Ziya, her forehead shedding cold sweat as she was still very afraid of some of the things the girl had done.

Xiao Ziya took out a small jewelry box from inside his solemn ring, as he opened the box to see a black jewel that attracted the attention of Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu. During this time the woman has collected many gems with various colors, but she does not yet have a jewel with a very beautiful black color like that. Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu also thought what purpose did Xiao Ziya show her that? could it be that the girl just wanted to show off the items she had.

"This gem will be yours if you answer honestly the question from me." Xiao Ziya said with a serious look and glared at her sharp eyes.

"Just you will give me this expensive gem?." asked Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu hesitantly, if sold the gem will have a value of five hundred thousand gold coins.

Xiao Ziya nodded his head as a sign that he would give the jewel to the Queen Mother if he was satisfied with the answer given by the queen mother. Empress Mother Yanhua Zu excitedly said that she would answer honestly all the questions from Xiao Ziya no matter what the question was.

"Where is the Mue Clan located?." asked Xiao Ziya with eyes filled with hatred, it seemed like the girl wanted to do something to the Mue Clan in revenge for Mue Sanron's actions towards Queen Junyi Zu.

"Klan Mue is in the territory of Yuan Liong Kingdom which, that region is not too far from the territory of the Eastern Star Kingdom" Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu honestly replied, the question was easy for him to answer.

"Are you thinking, is Consort Mue Zu better than Queen Junyi Zu?." asked Xiao Ziya earnestly, in any case her mother was much better than Consort Mue Zu. So why did Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu prefer Consort Mue Zu over Queen Junyi Zu?.

"Both are equally beautiful, Queen Junyi Zu is superior in her cleverness and good nature to attract the attention of the residents of the Eastern Star Kingdom. One thing that is very unfortunate from the Queen at this time, she did not have the support of the Yuang Yie Clan because Yie Gu had cut off the relationship between the two of them. I support Consort Mue Zu not because I like her more than Queen Junyi Zu all because Consort Mue Zu still has the support of the Mue Clan." replied Empress Yanhua Zu very honestly, there was no reason for her to prefer an evil woman like Concubine Mue Zu over Queen Junyi Zu who was known to be very kind and graceful.

"From now on Queen Junyi Zu has the full support of the Moon Kingdom, you need to keep that in mind both" Xiao Ziya said with a cold gaze that she addressed to Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu.

"Well I will remember it." replied Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu in a polite tone.

"Take your gift, I will go and say nothing to others about our conversation today" Xiao Ziya said, the girl handed her black diamond to Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu then left the backyard leaving the old woman alone.

Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu showed a very exaggerated happy expression, after a long time finally you have a gem with a unique color like a gift from Xiao Ziya. It had crossed the mind of Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu that if she supported Queen Junyi Zu it was likely that Xiao Ziya would give her a gem gift of a different color.

"The girl knows how to choose diamonds well" said Empress Dowager Yanhua Zu then went to leave the main palace's backyard so as not to arouse suspicion of the other party.

Xiao Ziya went to the Princess Palace to say goodbye to Princess Beiling Zu that he would leave and return tomorrow morning or midnight. Princess Beiling Zu wanted to come with Xiao Ziya, it was a pity that her half-sister forbade her from joining, the princess could only resign and order Xiao Ziya to return safely. Xiao Ziya left the Eastern Star Royal Palace even though the blood red rain was still going on, it was unable to touch or hurt Xiao Ziya's body. The atmosphere around the house of the residents of the Eastern Star Kingdom was very quiet, it seemed like everyone heard Xiao Ziya's orders well. After walking for a while Xiao Ziya arrived also at the border of the Eastern Star Kingdom with the territory of Yuan Liong Kingdom, the soldiers in charge of guarding the border were shocked upon realizing Xiao Ziya's whereabouts there.

"What is Miss Ziya doing? it is very dangerous if you wander around while the red rain is going on" said one of the border guard soldiers who was worried about Xiao Ziya's safety later.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about my safety. I will be out for a while because there is business in the neighboring kingdom." replied Xiao Ziya with a thin smile that adorned her pretty face.

The border warriors allowed Xiao Ziya to go where he wanted to go, the girl darted very quickly towards Yuan Liong Kingdom. Upon entering the area of the forest Ziya sensed that there were many pairs of eyes watching her, the girl smiled faintly as she realized the archers were preparing to severely fire at her. The border region of the Eastern Star Kingdom with Yuan Liong Kingdom is guarded by archers from Yuan Liong Kingdom to prevent any enemies or foreigners entering their territory silently.

"I hope you guys don't interfere with my trip" Xiao Ziya said firmly. The several archers hiding on the tree looked at each other, could it be that the young girl was aware of their existence?.

"I know you're all up there, I came to Yuan Liong Kingdom because there's something important I have to take care of." xiao Ziya said to the archers who still doubted that he was aware of their existence, two archers descended from the tree and approached Xiao Ziya to ask where the girl was from.

"What do you want to do in this territory of Yuan Liong Kingdom? can you show us an identity token so that we can trust that you are not from the enemy kingdom" said one of the youths who worked as a special archer of Yuan Liong Kingdom.

"Can you wait here as I will ask about the origin of this token to some generals who served in the border region" said one archer with an awkward smile.

"Alright I will wait here until you return." replied Xiao Ziya, the girl walked towards one of the shade trees then sat under the tree.

Xiao Ziya stared at the border region between the Eastern Star Kingdom and the Yuan Liong Imperial Region, strangely in Yuan Liong Kingdom there was no blood red rain like the other regions. Most likely the King of Yuan Liong Kingdom had a special magician army that would strengthen the protective shield in their region, Xiao Ziya was quite amazed by the King's ability in this region. Because of having to wait for quite a while, Xiao Ziya picked up some peaches and ate them voraciously, the girl looked very hungry because she was not yet full at lunch. The few archers who were still hiding on top of the tree stared towards Xiao Ziya with drool that was almost dripping, peaches are a type of fruit that can only be eaten by members of the royal family because the fruit is very rare and has a very expensive price.

"You want this fruit as well?" asked Xiao Ziya while looking at the several trees around him.

"That fruit is very expensive, we dare not ask it from you" replied one of the archers honestly to Xiao Ziya.

"Come down if anyone wants this fruit, I'll give it to him for nothing." Xiao Ziya replied casually, the girl had many peach plants that flourished within her universe ring.

Some archers came down from the top of the tree and chose to believe the foreign girl they had just met, Xiao Ziya gave two peaches to each of the archers who wanted to come down to meet her. After seeing their comrades fine while eating the peaches finally all the archers came down and got the peaches they wanted.

"How do you get this many peaches, it's probably the best quality peaches we've ever met" asked one of the men with a scratch on his face. Formerly he worked as a personal bodyguard of the King and Queen of the Yuan Liong Kingdom, due to his deformed face due to burning wolves, the queen lowered her position because she was fed up with the man's face.

"I have a lot of peach trees, so I don't have to buy any fruit I want to eat" Xiao Ziya replied in a relaxed tone.

"It turns out you're a rich Young Miss" the man said with a long sigh.

"What happened to uncle's face?." asked Xiao Ziya, actually the girl used to know by looking at her injuries but Ziya wanted to hear the man's explanation directly.

"I'm sorry I can't tell you anything, I don't want to remember the dark times I've been through" the man said. Xiao Ziya nodded his head and did not force the man to tell him.

"Take this medicine uncle, drink it when I'm gone." said Xiao Ziya who gave a light blue pill with three silver lines surrounding it. The man received the pill from Xiao Ziya doubtfully, he hoped that the girl was not deceiving him.

From a distance could be seen the young man who worked as a special archer along with some generals, they seemed to be running towards Xiao Ziya. Xiao Ziya and the other archers only looked with astonished gazes, what was going on until they were in such a hurry.

"Our salute to the Young Lord of the Hell Realm" said the five Generals along with the young man behind them.

"I receive greetings from you guys." Xiao Ziya replied with a sweet smile.

"I'm sorry we didn't know anyone as important as you wanted to visit Yuan Liong Kingdom" said one of the generals with cold sweat drenched in his face.

"I came here because I have some business here. I hope that whatever I do later, as long as it does not harm or injure your royal family members do not need to interfere" Xiao Ziya said with sharp eyes, he wanted to settle his affairs with the Mue Clan quickly.

"Alright we will not interfere with your affairs as long as you do not injure any members of the royal family, welcome to the territory of Yuan Liong Kingdom. We welcome the arrival of the ruler of the Hell Realm in our kingdom." said the five Generals then they escorted Xiao Ziya towards the entrance gate of the Yuan Liong Kingdom territory which was heavily guarded by several special forces.

Afterwards they allowed Xiao Ziya to go inside without any intention of blocking the girl, while some Generals rushed to the Yuan Liong Imperial Palace to report to their King. Xiao Ziya walked leisurely through several villages, the girl could see that the residents of Yuan Liong Kingdom were all cultivators despite being at a low level.

"Excuse me aunt, can you show me the way to the Mue Clan?" Xiao Ziya asked a middle-aged woman who was sweeping the courtyard.

"Miss has to pass through two more villages to get to the Mue Clan, there is a huge signboard when you have already reached the territory of the clan." replied the middle-aged woman very kindly, he could sense that the girl who was asking him had a higher level than some of the top level cultivators in Yuan Liong Kingdom.
