I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 914

Chapter 914: Chapter 341: The Imperial Consort’s Sudden Attack! Bathing with the Empress! (Part 2)

The dual cultivation didn’t work out, and I was exiled to the Southern Border. Just returned to the Capital City to find out that the other party had already stepped into the Heavenly Human Realm... Truly a case of losing more than I gained.

"But speaking of which, the fact that I’ve come this far is thanks to that secret technique. Your cultivation technique is really useful." Chen Mo said seriously, "Thank you."

"..."

Ye Zi’e’s mouth slightly twitched.

Without saying a word, she turned and left.

Watching the hurriedly departing back, Chen Mo’s lips curled slightly.

This woman became much more honest after returning from the Southern Border, so there shouldn’t be any need to worry about her having any more ill intentions.

"I must go to the Empress’s side, but there’s no rush. I’ve just taken office, and there are many eyes on me, so it’s better to keep a low profile for now."

Chen Mo thought to himself as he leisurely walked down the stairs with his hands behind his back.

...

...

Qilin Pavilion, fifth floor.

Compared to the complex functions and structures of the first four floors, this floor appeared quite "simple."

The entire level was open, without beams or columns, completely unobstructed.

Four white walls, simple and plain, the gray square tiles on the floor almost seamlessly joined, as if forming a smooth mirror.

By the floor-to-ceiling window stood a low tea table, with a teapot on the copper furnace beside it, the flames roaring with steam rising.

Two figures sat opposite each other.

One had a pale face, frail and thin, with a dispirited look in the eyes, even in summer, still wrapped in a fur coat.

The other wore a robe of vermillion, with a towering physique like an iron tower, even sitting still exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Plop plop——

The tea was already boiling, the steam lifting the lid and making it tremble constantly.

A black-clothed young girl kneeled on the ground, rolled up her sleeves, picked up the teapot, and poured the tea into the cups in front of the two.

Lv Huaiyu reached out, picked up the white porcelain teacup, and drank the scalding tea in one gulp.

"Good tea, another cup."

"..."

"Such a waste of my tea leaves." Wei Xuan said discontentedly, "Next time he comes, just serve him plain water."

"Yes." The girl responded.

"You can leave now." Wei Xuan waved his hand.

"Yes."

The girl bowed and withdrew.

Hearing this, a heavy feeling settled in Lv Huaiyu’s heart.

Throughout the entire court, there was only one person who could be referred to as "above" by Wei Xuan...

So, it’s the Emperor’s arrangement?

"I heard that Chen Mo is an expert in the Formation Path, each visit to the Demon Suppression Department significantly advances the progress of cracking the Eightfold Exorcism Array." Wei Xuan tapped his long fingers against the table, suggesting, "Maybe someone doesn’t want the array to be cracked so quickly, so they’re finding other tasks for him?"

"Of course, this is just my guess, the two may not be related."

Lv Huaiyu remained silent.

Moments later, he stood up and left the room directly.

"Tsk, truly impolite."

Wei Xuan leaned against the window, drinking alone.

His face was pale as paper, and his eyes were dark as ink, deep and inscrutable.

"Born as nobility, the sparrow’s fate is lowly, with aspirations of soaring high, difficult to surpass the blood edict stone... But if this sparrow were to gain Dragon Blood, then who knows... cough cough cough..."

...

...

After leaving Qilin Pavilion, Chen Mo found the Government had already adjourned, so he directly returned to the Chen Mansion.

Recently, the Chen Family’s reputation in the city was soaring, in its prime, Chen Zhuo busy with social engagements all day, and He Yuzhi dragged off by that group of noblewomen for games, leaving him in peace, spared from interrogation by the elders.
