Chapter 97 - The Perfect Place To Hide (1)



Meanwhile, somewhere in Jiang City… 

He sighed as the jet finally landed at the airport. This unplanned trip really soured his mood right at the beginning. Other than traveling these days, Qin Zhi hadn\'t done anything interesting or worthwhile the entire month. 

It would have been better if his meetings ceased reproducing like bunnies under the influence of an aphrodisiac, so he could have a moment of peace for himself… even for just a day. He had been pretending to be a human for the past centuries, hiding his existence from their probing eyes. 

He leaned back in his seat and forced himself to relax, which he had truly done for centuries—ever since his younger sister and his mortal wife perished from this world. Even to this day, Qin Zhi wondered why he hadn\'t died along with those two, forcing him to live alone miserably in this world. 

He wanted to blame someone for his misfortune, but he knew himself too well to lie. Qin Zhi had blamed himself for not being strong enough to protect the two most important people in his life. If he had a choice, he would have followed Feng Jiu into the afterlife. However, knowing that his sister was still sealed at that remote mountain for ages, he wondered if a day would come when he would be able to meet her once again. 

\'What will you tell her if she awakens, knowing you\'ve failed her?\' Qin Zhi asked himself. 

Nothing. He answered himself… because there were no words to explain his failure upon losing her and Feng Jiu. 

Qin Zhi pulled his phone out and saw several calls from a number he recognized, coming from his personal retainer and butler, Qin Zhihao. Qin Zhihao wouldn\'t persistently call him like this if it wasn\'t important. 

He dialed his butler\'s number, and it was picked up even before the first ring ended. 

"Milord! I have been calling you since morning!" Qin Zhihao was already in his late seventies and had been the seventh retainer of the Qin family. He was a human who was born to the Qin family that acted as Qin Zhi\'s human assistant, managing his mortal affairs for decades until Qin Zhihao passed the baton to his son or his grandson before his death. 

"I\'m here now. What\'s the matter this time?" Qin Zhi rubbed his temple and shut his eyes, wondering what made the old man agitated like this. 

"I\'ve just received news from Qingqiu Mountain. Apparently, the seal on Young Miss\'s remains has been lifted. The Li family is hunting her down as we speak," Qin Zhihao said, immediately garnering his master\'s attention at once. 

Qin Zhi\'s eyes shot open in surprise. He was just wondering a moment earlier what he would tell Daji if she awakened. What kind of coincidence was this?

"Are you certain?" He asked. He needed to make sure that no shamans or psychics were able to find his sister in her weakened state.

"I\'ve sent people to confirm the news, but it might take some time to confirm it, milord," the old man replied. 

"I see." Qin Zhi knew then that he couldn\'t wait and needed to see the site himself, but he would need to go back to his mansion first before anything else. 

In this era, he was known as Qin Zhi, the current CEO of EIR Group, which was established to protect the demons and allow them to mingle with the humans in secret. As a demon lord who would protect his subordinates, he oversaw the demonic activities in Jiang City, making sure that it wouldn\'t affect the other demons that had chosen to step back and live in peace. 

Physically, Qin Zhi looked like a man in his mid-twenties, and no one would assume that he had surpassed most humans in age and outlived them for several centuries already. 

"Since Daji is finally awake, the most important thing right now is to find her before anyone else does," he told Qin Zhihao, "Go and send more people to snoop around to find a lead about her whereabouts." 

If she was still the demoness he knew from the past, Daji would surely try to hide from the humans by being among them. For Daji, the perfect place to hide was in plain sight, something the humans wouldn\'t consider at first. Things that were hidden out in the open were often the most difficult to see.

"Yes, milord. I\'ll do it right away!" Qin Zhihao replied. 

He ended the call and rubbed his face. It was late now, but he would still make time to travel and see if the news about his sister\'s escape was true. Qin Zhi wondered how Daji managed to free herself, considering how very faint her energy was the last time he paid her a visit. 

Her long slumber had eventually weakened her over the centuries that had passed. It would be impossible to escape and break her seal on her own, so how… how did she manage to get free when even he, the great demon lord, couldn\'t break the seal Li Yun cast on her?

Qin Zhi shook his head and made a small sound of annoyance. He had waited for such a long time for Su Daji to wake up, only for her to hide; giving him a hard time finding her in a sea of humans. However, knowing that she was finally back managed to soothe his frayed nerves. 

Still thinking about his sister\'s whereabouts, Qin Zhi tapped the armrest of his chair impatiently. There must be a clue along the way. Daji should have left some clues about what happened to her at Qingqiu Mountain. 

\'Get a grip.\' Qin Zhi told himself. He started to look ridiculous for being so worried about the sudden change of events after his return. The shock of knowing Daji had risen must have thrown him off more than he thought, nothing more. 

\'I will not fail you this time.. Not this time.\'
