Capítulo 856: Chapter 664: Be Good, Just Listen and Obey
Corpse demons, reincarnated souls, sever past ties, cut off mory, reverse the cycle of reincarnation.
Though the soul remains unchanging and eternal, the mories of one’s past life are washed clean without exception, not even those of the Royal Bloodline can escape this fate.
Of course, if soone with extraordinary fortitude clings to mories of their past life, they can cultivate diligently over the years, strengthen the Corpse Pearl within their body, and hope for a chance to find the mories that bear witness to their reincarnation as a human.
The Corpse Pearl is the fundantal root of corpse demons, requiring at least two hundred years of nurturing with Pure Yin Qi to condense into a Corpse Pearl.
This is unrelated to the cultivation realm of one’s past life; corpse demons have always revered their bloodline, and naturally, the Demon Queen Zhi Yu Yan, not being a pureblood corpse demon, cannot overturn this iron rule.
In the court hall, the atmosphere that had finally heated up was about to settle down, Mi Lu looked around in slight panic at everyone’s suspicious and hesitating expressions.
Inwardly anxious, he clenched his fingers until they cracked, glaring at Baili An: “What? Are you questioning my mother’s identity?!”
Zangxin chuckled softly and said: “Si Chen, your knowledge of the ancient records of the corpse demon clan is truly remarkable. One might almost think that you have deep ties to the corpse demons like the Demon Queen herself?”
In response to Zangxin’s probe, Baili An ignored it and said calmly: “The Demon Queen has just awakened tonight, not even an hour has passed since the Taoyan devastated the Royal Mausoleum, yet within this short hour, Zangxin, the River Lord, learned from the Demon Queen all the past conspiracies of the Demon Lord who murdered his parents and seized the throne, and summoned so many Demon Ministers to beat the Heavenly Drum tonight with such thunderous ans…”
Speaking, his gaze shifted slightly, looking at Zangxin and continued with extre calmness: “This behavior suggests that you might have foreseen the Demon Queen’s awakening tonight.”
Zangxin’s expression changed, then he sneered: “Si Chen, this joke is not amusing at all.”
“Do you see laughing?” Baili An looked at him, his face devoid of any emotion.
Zangxin’s face was somber: “The Demon Queen is deeply protected by royal grace, unlike ordinary beings.”
“Haha.” Upon hearing Zangxin’s explanation, Baili An laughed out loud as if it were a joke.
“Since the River Lord Zangxin says the Demon Queen is deeply protected by royal grace, unlike ordinary beings, well, then may I ask the Demon Queen, what is the current Demon Lord’s birth date, and what is his na?”
“This…” Demon Queen Zhi Yu Yan’s face froze, unsure how to answer.
Zangxin quickly interjected: “His Majesty was not born of the Demon Queen, he was born in the Wasteland City, vastly different in status, how could she know his birth date?
As for his na, not to ntion the Demon Queen, even us ministers do not know His Majesty’s na, why should Si Chen, the River Lord, make this difficult?”
Vaguely mocking that the Demon Lord’s na isn’t worth rembering.
Baili An unhurriedly: “Since that’s the case, then following what the Lord Zangxin suggested, I’ll ask a few simple questions for token’s sake.”
Seeing his manner, Zangxin felt sothing was amiss, his mind raced, just about to intervene.
But Baili An began to question Demon Queen Zhi Yu Yan in front of the entire hall of Demon Ministers, his actions strikingly similar to Zangxin and Mi Lu’s joint questioning of the Demon Lord’s situation earlier.
“Then let ask the Demon Queen, do you know your son’s na?”
Demon Queen Zhi Yu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, saying smoothly: “How could I not know my son’s na, Mi Lu, my son is nad Mi Lu.”
Baili An gradually progressed, asking: “Then during your lifeti, Demon Queen, how many sons and daughters did you have under your knees?”
Demon Queen Zhi Yu Yan paused, seeming hesitant, glanced at Mi Lu’s expression, then said: “I have only one son.”
Baili An descended the steps, blocking her gaze from Mi Lu, and asked again: “Then let ask the Demon Queen again, do you know Young Lord Mi Lu’s birth date?”
Zhi Yu Yan’s face changed drastically, her body trembled slightly, unable to respond for a while, the scene beca extrely oppressive, even the most obtuse Demon Ministers noticed the peculiarity within.
The Female Demon Lord curled her lips slowly, watching Baili An with an amused expression, suddenly finding that tonight’s night court wasn’t as unwelcoming as it seed.
Zangxin’s eyes had already turned gloomy and sinister, but Mi Lu was still completely oblivious to what kind of dicine Baili An had up his sleeve.
He chuckled, saying as if aided by the gods: “Ridiculous, where in the world is there a mother who doesn’t know her son’s birth date? When my mother was alive, she took to the Changqing Palace every year for my birthday celebration, rembering my birthdate even clearer than myself.”
No one knew what he was proud of, while speaking, he looked boastfully in the direction of the Demon Lord, as if bullying her for not having a mother’s care from a young age.
The Demon Lord shook his head without speaking.
“Oh?” Baili An smiled, gaze unwaveringly fixed on the Demon Queen, saying: “Then I really don’t know which day the Demon Queen takes His Highness to the Changqing Palace each year for the birthday celebration?”
Zhi Yu Yan’s body staggered heavily, her face turned deathly pale, her blood-red eyes revealing a trace of helplessness under questioning, she trembled as she spoke with difficulty: “I… I don’t rember.”
Mi Lu’s smile collapsed instantly, his blood boiling in all limbs and bones due to this statent of forgetfulness: “Mother!!!”
“Don’t rember?” Baili An scoffed lightly, saying: “The Demon Queen has had only the Young Lord under her care, loves him dearly, takes their child to Changqing each year for celebration, how could she just forget?”
His gaze teasing: “If that’s the case, then wanting to convict His Majesty based on the Demon Queen’s vague and chaotic mory, wouldn’t it be too much of a child’s play, Lord Zangxin?”
