Chapter 997: Domineering Sorcerer Queen

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There was a special guard at the palace gate to receive him. The moment the guard lifted the curtain, Zhou Jin used sorcery on him. When the guard saw “Prince Ye Yang”, he knew that the expert sent by the Sorcerer Queen had returned. He quickly wanted to bring them to the Harem, but in a daze, he seemed to hear “Prince Night Yang” say, “I’m tired. I’ll return to my own bedchamber first.”

“Yes,” the guard agreed in a daze.

The guard led the carriage and first sent Zhou Jin to Ye Yang’s bedchamber. Then, he brought the sleeping man to the Harem.

It was expected that the man would fall asleep. The Sorcerer Queen did not show much surprise. She asked the guard, “Where’s His Highness Ye Yang?”

The guard said, “His Highness is tired. He’ll go back to his bedchamber to rest first.”

The Sorcerer Queen nodded and did not suspect anything. She looked at the sleeping man and instructed, “Send him to the Hall of Light.”

“Yes!” The guard accepted the order and left.

With her son back, the Sorcerer Queen, who had been cold for many days, finally had a smile on her face. She could not wait to go to Ye Yang’s bedchamber. Just as the guard had said, “Ye Yang” was tired and had already rested in the bedchamber.

The maidservants were all guarding outside the door. When they saw the Sorcerer Queen, they bowed in unison and whispered, “Greetings, Sorcerer Queen.” They were afraid of waking up His Highness.

The Sorcerer Queen nodded in agreement and asked, “Where’s Ye Yang? Is he asleep?”

One of the maidservants said, “Yes, Sorcerer Queen. His Highness is asleep. His

Highness said not to disturb him and asked us to guard outside.”

In the past, Ye Yang liked to be lively and did not leave anyone by his side, let alone chase all the women out. Although his behavior was a little strange, he was definitely frightened when he thought about how he had been kidnapped. It was not strange for him to isolate himself.

The Sorcerer Queen entered the room with heartache. Zhou Jin sat quietly at the head of the bed. The Sorcerer Queen’s gaze landed on his face. “You are…” Zhou Jin’s eyes narrowed. The Sorcerer Queen panicked for a moment before she quickly smiled gently. “Ye Yang! You’re back!”

She quickly walked towards Zhou Jin and sat down on the edge of the bed. She hugged Zhou Jin. “I was so worried about you. Did they do anything to you?”

The Sorcerer Queen heard Ye Yang say.

“That’s good.” The Sorcerer Queen let go of him and looked at him steadily.

“Where have you been kidnapped these few days? Is it related to your uncle?”

As soon as she finished speaking, the Sorcerer Queen heard Ye Yang say, “I don’t know where it is, but I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was in a small courtyard. I didn’t see Uncle.”

They must have been on guard against Ye Yang, so he didn’t recognize the place they were hiding. As for Wen Xu… he was her biological brother after all. Unless it was absolutely necessary, the Sorcerer Queen wasn’t willing to suspect that he had participated in the kidnapping of Ye Yang.

The Sorcerer Queen stroked “Ye Yang”‘s cheek and said, “It’s fine. I will investigate thoroughly. I will make that group of people pay the price!” “I’m tired and want to sleep.”

“Okay, okay. Take a nap first. I’m going to deal with official business. I’ll come and see you later.”

After the Sorcerer Queen tucked Zhou Jin in, she reluctantly left. It was also very tiring to use sorcery. As soon as she left, Zhou Jin retracted his sorcery power and lowered the curtain. He condensed his strength and conserved his power.

The court of the Sorcerer Clan was also called the Sorcerer Hall. It was a place for the Sorcerer Clan to discuss politics. Because of the disappearance of Ye Yang, the Sorcerer Queen had not been to the Sorcerer Hall for a few days. However, she also understood that the reason why the Sorcerer Hall would cause trouble today was not because she had neglected politics, but because she had done something she should not have done.

The Sorcerer Queen’s gentleness in front of Ye Yang had already disappeared, replaced by a dark coldness. She was like an unruly black phoenix, dragging a long black and gold hem behind her. Her aura was fully released.

The Sorcerer Hall had already exploded. The elders had all arrived and were arguing fiercely about the Sorcerer Queen’s actions yesterday.

“How can the Sorcerer Queen do this? Doesn’t she know that there’s a huge risk in doing this?”

“The Sorcerer Queen also did it to save His Highness Ye Yang.”

“There must be another way to save His Highness Ye Yang. Why does she have to release that demonic creature? Isn’t this asking a tiger for its skin?”

“Fourth Elder, don’t make it sound so ugly!”

“Then if she has the ability, she shouldn’t make it so ugly!”

“Stop arguing!”

The Great Elder shouted, and the Sorcerer Hall fell silent. However, not long after, the Fourth Elder mocked again. “Great Elder, the Sorcerer Queen is your biological daughter, so you naturally speak up for her. However, this time, it’s not a matter of whether you’re on her side or not. Her actions have already harmed the entire Sorcerer Clan. I second the motion and retract her authority to be in charge of government affairs. She’s the Sorcerer Queen, so she should obediently return to the palace to be her own queen!”

“Who will obediently return to the palace to be their queen?

A cold and domineering voice sounded from outside the door of the Sorcerer Hall. Everyone could not help but be shocked. They looked in the direction of the voice and saw the Sorcerer Queen walking towards them domineeringly.

A dazzling gaze chased after her, making her look like the ruler of all things.

The Fourth Elder, who was still aggressive a second ago, fell silent the moment he saw her sharp aura. The Sorcerer Queen’s dignity for so many years was not all exaggerated. She had her iron-blooded methods and terrifying schemes and methods.

“It’s only been a few days since I last came, but the Sorcerer Hall has already been turned upside down. The Great Elder is still here. Is Fourth Elder trying to turn the tables?” The Sorcerer Queen looked at Fourth Elder and said with a smile.

The Fourth Elder choked.

The Second Elder stepped forward and said unhurriedly, “Sorcerer Queen, you came at the right time. The matter we’re discussing happens to be related to you.”

With a light sentence, the topic was changed. This old man was only born a few years later than the Great Elder, so he had missed the position of the Chief Elder. He was definitely not so easy to deal with.

The Sorcerer Queen smiled faintly and said, “What you’re discussing is related to me?”

“I heard that the Sorcerer Queen released the Soul Rakshasa,” the Second Elder said bluntly.

When the Sorcerer Queen heard this, she was surprised. “Aiya, who did you hear this from? That’s a great demon that threatens the Sorcerer Clan. Why did

I let it out?”

The Second Elder frowned.

The Fourth Elder snorted. “But we clearly felt the Soul Rakshasa’s aura last night!”

The Sorcerer Queen smiled bitterly and said, “That’s because the seals of the

Saint King and Sorcerer King have lost their effect. The Soul Rakshasa has woken up. I’m thinking of ways to seal it back. Someone must have sent the news wrongly, causing the elders to mishear.”

The Second Elder looked at her suspiciously. “Are you serious?”

The Sorcerer Queen said sincerely, “It’s absolutely true. I’m the Queen of the Sorcerer Clan. Would I do anything to harm the Sorcerer Clan? It wasn’t easy for the Sorcerer King to seal that demonic creature back then. How can I let down his hard work for nothing? Speaking of which, the few elders have the time to hear rumors here and criticize my mistake. Why don’t you think of a way to suppress that big demonic creature that’s awakening?”

Everyone discussed it again.

So they had wronged the Sorcerer Queen? It was not that the Sorcerer Queen had released the demonic creature, but that the demonic creature had woken up by itself. The Sorcerer Queen was about to be unable to suppress it?

“Does the Sorcerer King know about this?” The Second Elder asked seriously.

The Sorcerer Queen sighed and said, “His body is getting worse and worse. I’m hesitating if I should tell him. As you know, he doesn’t have much sorcery power left. Even if he knows about this, I’m afraid he’s powerless.”

The Great Elder cupped his hands. “We wronged the Sorcerer Queen. Please don’t take offense.”

The Sorcerer Queen smiled and said, “Why would I blame the elders? Everyone is thinking for the Sorcerer Clan. I was careless. I should have informed everyone immediately when such a thing happened, not hidden it and tried to resolve it myself. I still underestimated the ability of the Soul Rakshasa.”

The Great Elder looked at everyone and said earnestly, “Elders, the misunderstanding has been explained clearly. The Sorcerer Queen is innocent.

No matter who spread the rumors, I will definitely punish them severely. Next, I hope we can stop the internal strife and work together to brainstorm. Don’t let that demonic creature come out and harm the Sorcerer Clan.”

The Fourth Elder and the Second Elder exchanged glances. The Second Elder gestured for him not to be rash, and the Fourth Elder turned his face away gloomily.

The Fifth Elder and the Seventh Elder looked at the Third Elder in unison. It was obvious that they were suspicious of the Sorcerer Queen’s words, but the Third Elder did not say anything. They were on good terms with the Third Elder and had temporarily given him face.

A storm was temporarily suppressed.

The elders left one after another, leaving only the Great Elder.

The Great Elder stopped the Sorcerer Queen. “Wait, I have something to tell you.”

The Sorcerer Queen dismissed the servants, leaving only her and the Great Elder in the huge Sorcerer Hall. She softly called out to her grandfather.

The Great Elder looked at her solemnly. “Tell me the truth. Did you wake the

Soul Rakshasa up?”

When the Great Elder received the news yesterday, he hurriedly rushed to the Hall of Light. However, at that time, the Sorcerer Queen had already come out of the Hall of Light. Her face was terrifyingly pale, and she did not look like she could talk to anyone. She sat in the carriage and returned to the bedchamber. After all, she was his own flesh and blood. How could the Great Elder not tell that the Sorcerer Queen was lying?

The Sorcerer Queen knew that she could not hide it from the Great Elder, so she did not argue. “I know my limits.”

The Great Elder said coldly, “What limits do you have? The Sorcerer King is already like that, and the Saint King is also dead. Do you think you can control that demonic creature? It’s obedient to you now, because it still has a favor to ask of you. When it completely comes out of the coffin, it won’t be controlled by you anymore!”

The Sorcerer Queen narrowed her eyes.. “Don’t worry, I have a way… to let them die together!”
