Shen Yanxiao quickly searched for her own target. When she went up to the second oor, she nally
sensed the aura of Gui Jiang, but aside from that, she also felt a familiar devil energy by his side.
Shen Yanxiao quietly sneaked in that direction. In the open study room, the light of the ames twinkled
and Gui Jiang was sitting in a chair, coldly looking at the devil man standing in front of him.
The devil man was the one who had escorted Shen Yanxiao and Qing Jun to Guiwang City.
“What can I help Lord Gui Jiang with?” The devil man asked respectfully.
Gui Jiang frowned deeply and said, “What’s going on with Qing Jun’s maid? I don’t remember that he likes
contact with the devils.”
Outside, Shen Yanxiao was shocked. When she was in Qing Jun’s residence, Gui Jiang did not show any
doubt about her, but when he got back here, Gui Jiang unexpectedly asked about it. Maybe she
accidentally exposed a clue?
Shen Yanxiao held her breath and quickly recalled whether she made any mistake during the time she
was in contact with Gui Jiang.
But after recalling several times, she didn’t feel any abnormalities; she completely looked like an ordinary
devil girl at that time.
Could it be that Gui Jiang disliked her poor development?
The devil man answered, “I inquired at the border garrison. The maid was sent to Lord Qing Jun by the
soldiers stationed at the border. He required some help, but Lord Qing Jun is very demanding. As you
know, Lord Qing Jun doesn’t like devils very much. He always thinks our devil men are lthy, and the
enchanting nature of the female devils also disgusts him very much. So he asked the border garrison to
help him nd a female devil, who doesn’t look so disgusting, as a maid. The soldiers found the little fellow
in a pub.”
The devil man narrated the whole story. Gui Jiang was silent for a moment before his eyebrows slightly
unfolded. He seemed to accept this story.
Shen Yanxiao, however, really admired the devil man’s investigative skills. From the moment he saw her
to the moment he brought her and Qing Jun to Guiwang City, there was simply no gap; yet, he was still
able to nd out her origin?
“Well, as long as he can accomplish what Lord Satan asked him to do, he can do whatever he wants. But if
he can’t come up with a result…” Gui Jiang’s eyes ashed with a sharp light.
“It’s as Lord Gui Jiang said. By the way, reporting to Lord Gui Jiang, some news came from Lord Yue Luo.
He asks when you are free in the next few days, as he plans to come with the other lords to discuss
something with you.”
“Yue Luo? Tell him to come as soon as he wants.” Gui Jiang said.
“Understood.”
Gui Jiang talked to the devil man for a while. Shen Yanxiao did not hear any useful news, but their
previous conversation gave her a message.
The man named Yue Luo was probably a member of the twelve devil generals as well. Furthermore, the
devil man said that Yue Luo would come here with the other lords…
Other lords, were they the other devil generals?
Shen Yanxiao’s heart leapt wildly. If she could nd out the strength of the twelve devil generals before the
war, it would be the best thing for those who would confront the twelve devil generals.
After a while, the devil man withdrew from the study. When he left, he closed the door. Shen Yanxiao hid
in the darkness and watched the other party go away gradually.
She still didn’t plan to leave.
She was waiting for Gui Jiang to leave so that she could sneak into the study and nd out if there was any
important information.
