I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1401

Chapter 1401: Chapter 542: Signing the Slave Contract! Her Majesty the Consort’s Devotion!

"Thankfully, it’s Saintess Yu." A voice suddenly slipped into his ears.

Yu Hongyin raised her head in a bit of a daze. "Mr. Chen, what did you say?"

Chen Mo’s lips curved slightly, a smile playing there. "Being trapped in this underground palace really is quite a headache, but luckily I have Saintess Yu by my side, which keeps this place from being so boring."

Yu Hongyin froze. That gentle gaze wrapped around her as if it were going to melt her whole being. She could even hear her own heart pounding "thump, thump" in her ears.

"What does Mr. Chen mean by that?"

"Could it be... could it be that he likes me too?"

Her mind was a complete mess, spinning out of control with wild thoughts.

"Ahem!"

Just then, a fit of coughing sounded, shattering the tender atmosphere.

The two of them turned their heads to look, only to see that Yu Youhan had woken up at some unknown point. Her cyan-green eyes were as cold as a deep pond. "Sorry to interrupt you two. Should I give you some space?"

"N-no need!"

Yu Hongyin’s cheeks instantly flushed red. Like a frightened little rabbit, she bolted away and hid behind a nearby pillar.

Yu Youhan shot Chen Mo a glare and said irritably, "This palace was only sitting in meditation for a little while, and you really can’t stay idle for even a moment, can you!"

Chen Mo sighed. "She’s in this situation because of me. Whether she can go back or not, I owe her an explanation in the end. Playing hard to get is something only scumbags do."

Yu Youhan let out a cold laugh. "You’ve got some nerve saying that. Just among your disciples and sisters, there are already several pairs. Your harem’s about to be swept clean by you. Is there anyone in all of Jiu Zhou more of a scumbag than you?"

Chen Mo argued righteously, "That’s not it at all. This precisely shows I don’t care about their identities. For the sake of feelings I can ignore worldly etiquette, and even if the whole world points at my spine and curses, I have no regrets. This is pure love, beyond any dispute!"

"..."

Yu Youhan knew just how thick this guy’s skin was; even a flying sword probably couldn’t pierce it.

As for his relationship with Yu Hongyin, she’d long since had a clear idea and wasn’t about to get jealous over something like this.

"Back to the point, Empress, have you sensed the Returning Ruins Origin?" Chen Mo asked.

Yu Youhan’s delicate brows furrowed as she said in a low voice, "Not yet. The situation is even more troublesome than I expected. Wu Lie has set up a massive number of Meteor Crystals in this underground palace to simulate the operation of the stars in a Cycle. It’s practically become a self-contained realm. All Laws are being blocked. To pierce through the barrier and sense the Origin’s aura won’t be something done in a short time."

Chen Mo had already anticipated this.

After all, this "prison" was tailor-made for Zhu Jiuyou. How could it be broken so easily?

"What about you?" Yu Youhan gave him a sidelong look. "Seeing how calm you look, don’t tell me you’ve already found that Ancestor Dragon’s Will?"

Chen Mo nodded. "I’ve indeed gained something. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to escape soon."

He didn’t explain further, mainly because he hadn’t figured out how to bring it up yet.

?

Yu Youhan was a bit puzzled at his words.

"Weird, I suddenly feel so dizzy..."

"Feeling dizzy is normal. Once you fall asleep, you won’t feel hungry."

"Hm?"

Thud—

Before Yu Hongyin could react, she toppled headfirst to the ground.

"Done. Now no one will disturb us." Yu Youhan clapped her hands and turned back, looking at Chen Mo’s dumbfounded expression as she said, "Relax, it’s a Breath Closing Pill. It’ll only put her into a temporary fake-death state. It won’t harm her body..."

As she spoke, she reached down to undo the sash at her waist.

The plain dress slipped down like flowing mercury, revealing skin whiter than snow. The purple underwear barely contained her fullness. Her belly was flat, her waist slender; every inch of flesh and bone was perfectly proportioned, as if she’d stepped out of a painting, flawless in every way.

She came to stand before Chen Mo,伸出修长玉腿,粉嫩足趾勾住了胸前衣襟.

"Dog-like Lackey, what are you still waiting for?"

"Empress..."

Chen Mo looked up at her, his throat suddenly dry.

"Back then I said that once you reached First Grade, you and I could truly begin Dual Cultivation."

"Now, even though you haven’t broken through yet, your body and Divine Soul are in no way inferior to First Grade, so there’s no need to worry about backlash..."
