I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 842

Chapter 842: Chapter 315: Scarlet Silk Evolves Again! Jade Lock of the Deep Palace, the Empress’s Great Breakthrough! (2)

"This is utterly ridiculous, it’s beyond absurd..."

"..."

Ling Yishan slumped back in the chair.

For a moment, he couldn’t recover from the shock after shock.

This has far surpassed the realm of genius; it can be said that as long as Chen Mo doesn’t die prematurely, he will surely become the Ultimate Venerable in the future!

But will that ruler of Qianji Palace really allow such a "hidden dragon" to exist? Or perhaps, has he already been scheming in the shadows?

For example, this sudden chaos is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface, and the person behind it must have deeper motives...

Qi Chengze saw through what Ling Yishan was thinking, and as silver light intertwined above, forming a shielding aura that completely isolated them from the outside, he began to speak: "That day, before I fought with that bald monk, he said some strange things..."

Ling Yishan recovered and asked, "What did he say?"

Qi Chengze hesitated for a moment and then softly said: "He said, in the Eightfold Exorcism Array, only seven sets of the arrays are set by Wuwan Temple. As for who constructed and what the purpose of the innermost array is, no one knows..."

Ling Yishan’s expression turned grave on hearing this.

If he heard this from someone else, he naturally wouldn’t believe it.

But the bald monk was different; with his personality, he wouldn’t stoop to telling such a poor lie.

"This matter involves a lot, and I don’t dare to report it to the higher-ups. Currently, only you and I know about it." Qi Chengze said.

"You did the right thing." Ling Yishan tapped his fingers on the armrest, speaking in a deep voice: "If this matter is false, there’s no need to mention it. If it’s true, it shouldn’t be said even more, or it’ll bring fatal consequences... Just pretend you don’t know. Once the array is broken, the truth will naturally come to light."

Qi Chengze sighed, "It’s a pity that we couldn’t keep that bald monk, and he even took away a strand of Dragon Qi... Alas..."

Ling Yishan remained silent.

If he guessed correctly, that Monk Huineng’s background is astonishingly huge.

Although his strength hasn’t recovered yet and he’s still relying on external items, if he wishes to leave, no one below Ultimate Venerable could stop him.

"It’s getting late, I should return. There’s still a mess to clean up over there."

"Lately, many reports have been filed against me, saying I misjudged and almost caused the Crown Prince to get harmed... Damn, I’m not a prophet; who could predict such things?"

Qi Chengze gritted his teeth.

Ling Yishan chuckled and said, "Those old folks just want someone to take the blame."

"Well, they can try. I’ll predict their lifespans one by one, who’s afraid?"

Qi Chengze stood up, hesitated for a moment, and tossed the Jade Talisman to Ling Yishan, "Anyway, you still have time. Let’s talk in six months; maybe your precious granddaughter will have refined a Golden Core by then?"

"If it really comes to that, then come find me."

Ling Yishan was silent for a moment and then said, "Old Qi, thank you."

"Sentimental." Qi Chengze waved his hand, "When a man is about to die, his words are kind; consider it a final care."

"That’s not what I meant." Ling Yishan’s murky eyes flashed with a glimmer, "I’m grateful to you for taking the risk to help me conceal matters regarding Chen Mo."

This meeting, the Empress’s attitude towards him had changed slightly, not only was there more dependence and fondness in her eyes, but her actions were also bolder.

At the critical moment, she took the initiative, turning the tables.

First, she applied medicinal oil on him, then reversed and rubbed it on herself...

Smelling the lingering scent of osmanthus in the air, Chen Mo’s thoughts wandered; if the Empress, Daoist Venerable, and the Empress were to hold a gathering together, what kind of scene would that be?

"Forget it, anything can happen in a dream."

"Given the Empress’s personality, if she knew I’ve attained Dao, there would certainly be rivers of blood..."

Chen Mo rubbed his forehead and looked up.

Beside him lay a beautiful body, the disheveled clothes couldn’t conceal the snow-white skin, and the long, straight jade legs were fully exposed. She embraced his waist tightly, and he could feel her steady breaths.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, seemingly in deep sleep.

"I remember the Empress never needed to sleep." Chen Mo pondered, "Since returning from the Desolate Domain, she seems somewhat exhausted..."

The Empress had charged alone into the Demon Clan Royal Court, not just facing the Demon Lord, but the entire tribe.

Although she didn’t mention it and seemed unharmed, upon careful thought, it’s clear her energy expenditure must have been substantial...

"Previously, I lacked the strength and had no means, but now I’ve become a Third-rank Grandmaster; surely I can lend some aid?"

Chen Mo spread his palm, and a purple-gold Tai Chi Diagram slowly emerged.
