While Lin Fang was guessing Feng Jiu's whereabouts, this erstwhile Demon Emperor had already secretly arrived at the Northern Sea.
"Is this the trade route you use for dealings with the Dragon Palace?" Feng Jiu asked softly as she gazed at the open sea.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I always traded with the Northern Sea through this route," said Old Qing Jiao with great respect.
There was not even a hint of fear or worry on his aged face, but rather, he was brimming with excitement and cheer.
"You have toiled hard over the years, gathering so much resources for us," Feng Jiu sighed slightly.
No one could have imagined that this notorious traitor from the Demon Court, Old Qing Jiao, had actually always been a man of the Demon Emperor, enduring humiliation and heavy burdens all these years just to accumulate resources for the reconstruction of the Demon Court.
