Chapter 108 The Truth Finally Revealed, and the Wrongful Conviction Resolved

The battle between the man in black and the mysterious figure was earth-shattering; the roof of the Demon Palace was nearly blown off. Dai Yao watched the spectacle while secretly congratulating herself on hiding in time, otherwise she would probably be dead by now.

But before she could be happy for long, the pieces of the letter that she had painstakingly pieced together suddenly seemed to have grown wings and flew away in a flash!

Dai Yao was shocked. She stared wide-eyed at the direction the fragment flew away, thinking, "I had everything prepared, and this is what you show me? This is crucial evidence to prove my innocence! How could it suddenly fly away? Is there some mysterious force at work?" She subconsciously reached out to grab the fragment, but only grasped at air. She felt worse than if she had swallowed a fly.

The mysterious figure also noticed this scene, his eyes behind the mask filled with anxiety.

He whispered "fragments..." with a hint of barely perceptible worry in his voice.

This tone... it feels a little... off?

Dai Yao glanced at him questioningly, but quickly turned her attention back to the vanished fragment. The reason this mysterious figure was so concerned about the fragment was because he knew it concealed a secret concerning the very survival of the Demon Palace, a secret intricately linked to Dai Yao.

Years ago, he witnessed a horrific catastrophe at the Demon Palace, and certain qualities in Dai Yao gave him a glimmer of hope for saving the Demon Palace. Therefore, he unconsciously showed extra concern for Dai Yao, not wanting her to fall into a desperate situation due to the disappearance of the evidence.

Back at the Demon Palace, Dai Yao found herself universally disliked. The Demon Palace disciples who had previously called her brother now avoided her, whispering and pointing fingers behind her back. Words like "traitor" and "spy" stabbed at Dai Yao's heart like knives.

Good heavens, this public pressure is even more terrifying than being besieged by the aunties in her hometown! Dai Yao felt those gazes pricking her back like needles, her ears filled with whispers, and she felt both angry and aggrieved. Fortunately, the mysterious figure stayed by her side, offering words of comfort from time to time. That gentle voice was like a warm current, encouraging her.

Dai Yao took a deep breath, telling herself she couldn't give up! So what if she was wronged?

Small scene!

Back in the modern world, she was an independent and righteous person who always stood up for what was right. Now that she has been wronged in this demon palace, she is even more determined to prove her innocence.

Just as she had overcome numerous difficulties in modern society, she believed she could always find a solution. She calmed herself down and activated her special ability—the ability to sense the direction of the flow of energy.

Huh? Why is the aura in the northwest corner of the Demon Palace suddenly so strong? Something's definitely fishy here! Dai Yao's eyes lit up, and she immediately set off for the northwest corner.

"let's go!"

“Wait,” the mysterious figure grabbed her hand, “There…” “It’s very dangerous there, little girl.” The mysterious figure’s tone was solemn, and his eyes under the mask were fixed on the northwest corner, as if he could see the hidden danger through the layers of buildings.

Dai Yao waved her hand dismissively, "What's there to be afraid of? I'm a battle-hardened transmigrator, what's a little danger? Besides, with you here, what do I have to be afraid of?" As she spoke, she playfully winked at the mysterious figure. This optimistic attitude stemmed from her past experiences of overcoming numerous difficulties in modern society.

The mysterious figure sighed helplessly, but ultimately decided to follow her.

"You... you really are a fearless person." He shook his head, his tone tinged with affection.

When Dai Yao and the mysterious figure arrived at the northwest corner, they discovered it was an abandoned alchemy room. A pungent medicinal smell permeated the air, so strong it was unpleasant that Dai Yao couldn't help but wrinkle her nose.

As soon as the two approached, they heard a whisper coming from inside.

"Hmph, just add a little more fuel to the fire, and that bitch Dai Yao will never be able to turn things around!" The voice was cold and sharp, and Dai Yao knew immediately that it was Shadow Killer's sixth brother! The voice was like a cold snake flicking its tongue in her ear, making Dai Yao feel disgusted.

“Don’t be careless,” another deep voice rang out, it was the Shadow Serpent who had never shown itself before, “Dai Yao is not so easy to deal with.”

Dai Yao and the mysterious figure exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes. Good heavens, so these two were in cahoots!

Dai Yao cursed inwardly, and was about to rush in and fight them for three hundred rounds, but was pulled back by the mysterious figure.

"Wait, don't be impulsive," the mysterious figure said in a low voice. "They are all experts in the Nascent Soul stage. We won't gain anything by fighting them head-on."

Dai Yao took a deep breath, trying to calm her excited emotions. She could feel her heart beating very fast, and her palms were covered in sweat.

Just then, Shadow Killer and Shadow Serpent seemed to have finished their conversation and were preparing to leave the alchemy room.

Dai Yao's eyes darted around, and an idea came to her.

She quietly took a flashbang from her storage bag, pulled the pin, and threw it into the alchemy room!

With a deafening roar, flames shot into the sky from the alchemy room. The sound of the explosion made Dai Yao's ears ring, and the flames were so bright that she could barely open her eyes. Shadow Killer and Shadow Serpent were caught off guard and blinded by the flashbang.

Seizing the opportunity, Dai Yao grabbed the mysterious figure and ran outside.

"Come on!"

"Trying to run? Not so easy!" Ying Sha roared and rushed out of the alchemy room, holding a dagger that gleamed with a cold light in his hand. The dagger's cold light was particularly dazzling in the firelight as he rushed straight towards Dai Yao!

"Yao Yao!" the mysterious figure exclaimed, abruptly shoving Dai Yao away...

The explosion's flames illuminated half the sky, and the menacing dagger stopped just an inch from Dai Yao's nose. Dai Yao could clearly feel the chill emanating from the dagger, as if the Grim Reaper's scythe was right before her eyes.

At the critical moment, the mysterious figure stood in front of Dai Yao. When Shadow Killer's dagger pierced the mysterious figure, Dai Yao seemed to feel the impact of the collision. The mysterious figure groaned, clutched his wound, and took a few steps back, a trace of blood seeping from under his mask.

"Are you alright?!" Dai Yao panicked; this was her only support in this world! Her voice trembled slightly.

"I'm fine..."

"Nothing's wrong?! He's bleeding!" Dai Yao stamped her feet anxiously. She wanted to check the mysterious figure's wound, but she was also worried that Shadow Killer would attack again. She was extremely anxious.

In the blink of an eye, Dai Yao's eyes sharpened, and her hands rapidly formed hand seals. Her gaze was cold and resolute. "Shadow Killer, you despicable villain, today is your death day! Hmph!" Her hands moved so fast that only afterimages could be seen, and she could feel her hands getting slightly warm from the rapid hand seals. The power of her inner energy surged like a raging river, continuously gathering in her palms, forming a dazzling energy ball. The heat emanating from that energy ball made her palms feel hot.

She roared, "Go!" Her attack, like a meteor streaking across the sky, hurtled towards Shadow Kill with devastating force. Shadow Kill's eyes widened in terror; before he could react, the blow struck him squarely in the chest. Like a fragile leaf, he was swept away by the gale, flying dozens of meters before crashing heavily to the ground, spitting out blood and creating a large crater.

The people from the surrounding Demon Palace were all shaken by this powerful force and retreated in disbelief. Their mouths were agape, their eyes were wide open like copper bells, and their bodies trembled involuntarily as they stared at the scene in stunned silence.

Dai Yao's attack not only contained all the power of her accumulated luck, but also precisely struck Ying Sha's weakness—the flaw in his disguise!

"Cough cough..." Ying Sha struggled to get up, but found that the spiritual energy in his body was disordered and he could not move at all.

His facade began to crumble, revealing his true, sinister and ruthless nature.

Pressing her advantage, Dai Yao pointed at Ying Sha and shouted, "Elders, fellow disciples, this is the real traitor! He colluded with Youying She to frame loyal officials, and his crime deserves to be punished!" She produced various pieces of evidence she had collected, including clues found in the secret passage, records of Ying Sha and Youying She's private meetings, and even a secret letter written by Ying Sha himself.

Upon seeing this irrefutable evidence, Elder Blood Demon's face turned ashen, and he had no choice but to believe Dai Yao's innocence.

He roared, "Men, seize Shadow Killer and Shadow Serpent!"

The members of the Demon Palace then realized what had happened and looked at Dai Yao with admiration. Dai Yao, the special envoy they had once doubted and ostracized, was actually the true hero!

Shadow Assassin and Shadow Serpent were taken away by the Demon Palace disciples, and Dai Yao was finally cleared of suspicion and her name was vindicated. But she knew that the situation in the Demon Palace was still complicated, and this was only the beginning.

Dai Yao had just cleared herself of previous suspicions and hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief when she felt a cold gaze fall upon her.

She turned around abruptly and saw the Blood Demon Elder looking at her with a meaningful gaze...

“Envoy Dai, it seems you are hiding something from me.”
