Zhiyun first decided to head to an ancient city in The human world called Mo Yuan City, which is the border between the demon world and The human world, and also a center for information exchange.
There, she might find clues about the Demon Emperor's lost child. Along the way, Zhiyun constantly reminded herself to stay vigilant. The influence of the demon world was everywhere, and she couldn't afford to expose her whereabouts.
When night fell, she hid in the woods, using the power of the Nuwa Stone to restore her strength, while also contemplating the next plan.
The next day, as the sun rose, Zhiyun had already set out on the journey to the ancient city. Her heart was filled with determination, but also with some anxiety. After all, she was about to step into a world full of unknowns, and the mission was related to the entire demon realm, and even the future of the whole world.
On the bustling streets of the ancient city, Zhiyun blended into the crowd, her eyes alert and focused.
On both sides of the street were a variety of shops, and the noise of people and vendors intertwined to create an extraordinary lively scene.
However, Zhiyun was not focused on this. Her gaze wandered through the crowd, searching for the Demon Emperor's heir - Jade Wing.
It is said that as the most beloved and youngest son of the Demon Emperor, Jade Wing was arrogant and capricious, with an unstable temperament and a lack of seriousness in his cultivation. However, the rumor of his successful escape from the hands of the Second Prince was attributed to his cunning mind and the favor of many elders and ministers, which allowed him to escape from the demon realm under heavy protection.
"Miss, would you like to buy some candied haws?" A warm-hearted old man selling candied haws greeted, his face full of a kind smile.
Zhiyun gave a slight smile, shook her head, and politely declined, "Thank you, I have something else to do."
She continued on, weaving through the bustling crowd. Suddenly, a child in tattered clothes bumped into her. The child, in a panic, said, "I'm sorry, sister, I didn't see you."
Zhiyun squatted down, smiling to comfort him, "It's okay, just be more careful." Her eyes were filled with tenderness.
The child nodded and ran off quickly. Zhiyun stood up and continued walking. Soon, she entered what seemed to be an ordinary teahouse and sat in a corner, her gaze sweeping every corner of the teahouse.
The atmosphere inside the teahouse seemed to be in stark contrast to the noise outside, appearing particularly peaceful.
"Miss, what can I get for you?" The shop assistant walked over with a respectful attitude.
"Assistant, bring me a pot of tea," Zhiyun replied lightly, her gaze not leaving the other customers in the teahouse.
The tea was quickly served, and Zhiyun took a sip, but her mind was not on the taste of the tea.
Her gaze fell on the other side of the tea house, where a learned-looking old man was sitting, engrossed in reading a book.
Because Zhiyun saw the white colored stone on his waist, it immediately emitted a faint dark black light. This person is not an ordinary demon, but one with strong magical powers.
She quietly asked the shopkeeper, "Does that old man often come here?"
The shop assistant nodded, "Yes, he is a regular customer of ours."
Zhiyun smiled slightly, with a plan in mind. She slowly sipped her tea, waiting for the right moment.
After a while, she saw the old man put down the book, as if taking a break. At this moment, she stood up and walked towards the old man with a book in her hand.
"Excuse me, sir. I'm reading this book about the history of the ancient magic world, but there are some parts that I don't quite understand. I wonder if you could give me some guidance?" she humbly asked.
The old man looked up, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes. "Oh? Let me take a look," he took the book and began to flip through it.
Zhiyun took the opportunity to observe the old man's reaction and noticed a special glint in his eyes when he mentioned certain historical events in the demon realm.
"Old man, do you know a lot about the demon realm?" Zhiyun asked tentatively.
The old man set down his book and looked deep into Zhiyun's eyes. "Young man, the matters of the demon realm are unfathomable. Why are you interested in this?"
Zhiyun A thought crossed his mind, but he maintained tranquility on his face: "I heard that the Second Prince of the demon realm recently launched a palace coup, and the Demon Emperor, the eldest prince, and the third prince died in the coup. The whereabouts of the Fourth Prince are unknown. Do you know about this? What is your attitude towards this matter?"
A hint of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, then he regained tranquility: "Oh, I have heard about this matter. The conflicts in the demon realm have always been complex, and outsiders find it difficult to intervene. But why do you ask about these things? Is it related to you?"
Zhiyun smiled slightly and spoke cautiously, "I'm just curious about these things. After all, these events have a significant impact on the whole world."
The old man raised an eyebrow, nodded, and seemed satisfied with Zhiyun's response, "Indeed, these events have far-reaching implications for our world of humans and demons. However, as for the Fourth Prince you mentioned, it is said that he has escaped to The human world, and his whereabouts are unknown."
Zhiyun felt a tightness in her chest and asked tentatively, "Do you think he might be in Mo Yuan City?"
The old man shook his head. "It's hard to say. The human world is vast, and he could be anywhere. However, if he really is in Mo Yuan City, it won't be an easy task, after all, the forces here are also complex."
Zhiyun nodded, the old man was unwilling to speak, feeling frustrated. She thanked the old man for his guidance and then left the teahouse.
Seeing her about to leave the teahouse, the old man hesitated for a moment, then suddenly spoke, "The matters of the demon realm are not something outsiders should meddle in or know about. Once a slight mistake is made, it will bring trouble upon oneself. But since you are so interested, perhaps you can go to North of the city to take a look. If you are destined, you will meet the person you want to meet there."
Zhiyun stopped, turned around to look at the old man, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Really? Thank you for your guidance, senior."
The old man smiled slightly and returned to his books. Zhiyun left the teahouse, filled with hope, and quickly walked towards North of the city.
