Chapter 1022 -1020: Demon Slaying Emperor and the Prohibition Demon Clan?_1
There were things Yang Chen was confident about. He had many unique abilities that others did not possess. For instance, his unique ability to observe Prohibition Demon Tribe members.
Having accidentally exposed a Prohibition Demon Clan member before, Yang Chen had acquired some understanding of their disguise techniques and features through searching the individual’s memory. Any disguise had its flaws; it was just that people hadn’t discovered them or didn’t know how to identify them.
But Yang Chen knew these features.
Admittedly, the Prohibition Demon Tribe’s disguise was incredibly unique and terrifying. Their disguises were nearly flawless and indistinguishable from the objects they impersonated. Yet, no matter how perfect their false appearance, a fake was still a fake. There were over a dozen of their distinct traits, and Yang Chen knew them all perfectly well.
Now, as Yang Chen looked at the subordinates of Demon Slaying Emperor, his attention was suddenly drawn to a man close by.

This man had bright red lips and white teeth, appearing weak and fragile. However, his narrow eyes exuded a dangerous vibe. Nobody dared to underestimate him; just the fact that he could be the Demon Slaying Emperor’s right-hand man spoke volumes.
“Who is that man?” Yang Chen asked Zhou Qing who was beside him.
Although Zhou Qing couldn’t be considered an encyclopedia and didn’t have detailed knowledge about everyone, he could still easily tell him about the high-level figures he knew well.
“Sect Leader, he is one of the Demon Slaying Emperor’s right-hand men, rumored to be a foreigner favored by the Demon Slaying Emperor, named Lin Xi. As for his exact background, nobody knows. However, since he follows the Demon Slaying Emperor, people are not concerned about his origin. What can’t be denied is that Lin Xi is indeed a rare talent,” Zhou Qing replied with a smile.
“Oh? His origin is unknown?” Yang Chen narrowed his eyes.
“Yes, that’s right. Before becoming the Demon Slaying Emperor, his past was a complete blank. But that shouldn’t be a big deal; there are many people with a blank past. Sect Leader, why do you ask?” Zhou Qing appeared surprised.
Yang Chen waved his hand: “Nothing, just a casual question!”
Zhou Qing didn’t think much of it and simply believed that Yang Chen was really just asking casually.
Was Yang Chen really just asking casually, though?
Of course not.
“A blank past…” Yang Chen muttered in his heart.
If it were someone else with a blank past, that would be fine, but Yang Chen didn’t believe that Lin Xi truly had a blank past. Because on Lin Xi’s body, there were unique characteristics of the Prohibition Demon Tribe!
If it were only one or two features, that might be acceptable; however, there was conclusive evidence in the Prohibition Demon Tribe’s disguise – the two horns on their heads!
These two horns, similar to those of a bull, were a characteristic of the Prohibition Demon Tribe and the most challenging part of their disguise.
Of course, a normal soul scan would yield nothing. Instead, a unique technique was required to infiltrate their acupoints and detect the hidden demonic qi within.
Lin Xi was definitely a well-disguised member of the Prohibition Demon Tribe.
At first, Yang Chen had concerns about his suspicions, but now, he was certain of his deductions. He muttered to himself, “Should I tell the Demon Slaying Emperor about this? Although the Demon Slaying Emperor doesn’t have a particularly good relationship with the Bai Family, having a Prohibition Demon Tribe member by his side is still a big deal. I have an obligation to remind him. If he remains ignorant, it would be bad for both him and the human race.”
With this in mind, Yang Chen rubbed his eyebrows in thought.
However, halfway through his contemplation, he suddenly had an epiphany, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Xi and the Demon Slaying Emperor.
“No, that’s not right!” Yang Chen’s expression grew colder. “Isn’t the Demon Slaying Emperor aware of Lin Xi’s blank past? With so many Bai Family members with clear backgrounds at his disposal, the Demon Slaying Emperor doesn’t need to rely on foreigners of unknown origin.”
Was the Demon Slaying Emperor a fool?
Those who reached his level knew the principle of trusting those they employed while being cautious of those they didn’t. There was no Great Emperor who would casually favor a foreigner, let alone a foreigner of unknown origin.
If the Demon Slaying Emperor did so, there must be ulterior motives behind his actions.
Combining that with the Demon Slaying Emperor’s unfazed expressions throughout, Yang Chen thought of an incredible possibility!
“If anyone else was the Demon Slaying Emperor, they wouldn’t dare oppose the Bai Family even if they had ten thousand guts. He is a recently ascended Great Emperor and has nothing to gain from opposing three veteran Great Emperors. On the contrary, if he truly merged into the main family, he would become the fourth Great Emperor powerhouse, allowing the Bai Family to truly unify the Western Forty-two Counties in a real sense. In that case, he would be the ruler above all others,” Yang Chen murmured, “I don’t believe that the Demon Slaying Emperor can’t see this logic.”
As his thoughts reached this point, Yang Chen took a deep breath, “I’m afraid the so-called cooperation between the Demon Slaying Emperor and the Southern Region people to betray the Bai Family is nothing more than a fabrication by the Demon Slaying Emperor himself. Could he be colluding with the Prohibition Demon Tribe?”
The more Yang Chen thought about it, the more plausible it seemed!
Demon Slaying Emperor, Demon Slaying Emperor.
Rather than any other title, this man chose to name himself after “Demon Slaying.” At first glance, he appeared to be a righteous, iron-blooded man. But now, thinking about it, wasn’t this an attempt to cover up the truth?
The more Yang Chen thought about it, the more shocked he became. Only after a while did he finally rub his eyebrows: “I still can’t confirm if there are any issues with the Demon Slaying Emperor, as there is no absolute evidence yet. But I must find a way to expose Lin Xi. For this, I need to think carefully about how to proceed…”
Amidst his musings, all the major forces were ready, and as the organizer, Donghuang Sect began to speak.
Emperor Shi Neng was the first to speak, of course.
Though Ye Xu was the Sect Leader of Donghuang Sect, the true mastermind of Donghuang Sect was not him. It was similar to how the Demon Slaying Emperor was not the chief of the Demon Slaying Branch.
At this moment, Emperor Shi Neng stepped forward, smiling kindly, “To all the guests who have traveled far, thank you for attending the Dao Discussion Conference. This is an honor for our Donghuang Sect, as well as for Huangdao Sect, Demon Slaying Branch, and Bai Family. Today, we have come together to hold this Dao Discussion Conference. What is our purpose? I believe you all know the answer: the Prohibition Demon Tribe!”
Having finished speaking, Emperor Shi Neng’s expression grew gloomier: “Years ago, the Prohibition Demon Tribe suddenly appeared on our human borders. Out of benevolence and righteousness, we humans didn’t exterminate them. Instead, we hoped they would live in peace, maintain their territory, and not infringe upon us humans. However, we cannot deny that we made a grave mistake. Those not of our race always have different motives. The Prohibition Demon Tribe is an ambitious and insatiable wolf!”
