I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1417

Chapter 1417: Chapter 549: The Grand Array Activates! The True Dragon Emerges! (3)

"Take care, young lady."

After Ji Lianxing departed, Ling Yishan looked down, carefully scrutinizing the old eunuch before him, whose appearance was somewhat unfamiliar.

"A Heavenly Person Magician, with quite a considerable realm. How come I wasn’t aware of someone like you in the palace?"

"Speak, who sent you here?"

"Commander Ling is mistaken, my household is the head of the archives room. The palace is bustling just now, so I feared being implicated and quietly snuck out, merely passing by here." Zeng Ke said, smiling wryly while cursing his misfortune internally.

After Chen Mo broke into the Golden Throne Hall, the Emperor realized the gravity of the situation and secretly sent him a signal.

— If escape becomes impossible, he must ensure the success of the array’s activation!

When the two sides started fighting, Zeng Ke took advantage of the chaos to leave the Imperial Palace.

He first confirmed the Array Hub wasn’t damaged, then came to the Demon Suppression Department to find out the truth.

However, before he even entered, he was caught by a formidable woman, and now he had to face Ling Yishan, whose cultivation had fully recovered... It could be said he was stuck in a dead-end!

But Zeng Ke still harbored a glimmer of hope.

After all, Ling Yishan was a court official and shouldn’t readily harm an inner attendant.

"Not going to talk, huh?"

"No worries, I can see for myself."

Ling Yishan was loath to waste words and directly pressed his hand against Zeng Ke’s forehead.

"Hmm?"

Zeng Ke’s expression turned bewildered, followed by intense pain, as if countless blades were simultaneously twisting inside his brain.

His body convulsed violently, he opened his mouth to scream but couldn’t utter a sound.

A moment later, Ling Yishan withdrew his hand.

Zeng Ke fell to the ground with a thud, his eyes rolled back, uncertain if he was alive or dead.

"So it’s like this..."

"No, I must stop him immediately!"

Recalling the brief scene he had just seen, Ling Yishan trembled in spirit without the slightest hesitation, he turned and broke through the air towards the palace!

...

...

Above the Imperial Palace.

Boom—

Amidst a thunderous roar, a tall stone stele rose from each of the four directions of Tiandu City, east, south, west, and north!

The stele was inscribed with densely packed ancient scripts, wrapped in thick iron chains.

As the people perished, Blood Evil Qi continuously converged toward the stone steles, the inscriptions lit up one by one, reflecting onto the Heavenly Observation Mirror hovering in the air.

The mirror expanded in the wind, hanging like a mountain in the sky.

Black lacquer flecks peeled away, revealing a deep vortex, an aura of desolate wilderness spread out.

"Act!"

Without hesitation, Yu Youhan gathered green Dao Power into a sword and fiercely slashed at the Heavenly Observation Mirror!

However, the next moment, everyone was stunned—

A claw covered in black scales emerged from the mirror, firmly grasping the green giant sword.

Then,

crushed forcefully!
