I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 148 The little thief enters the palace! Queen: The fight between the wives has always been like this! (Happy New Year!)
Dongsheng Prefecture, Fuyun Mountain.

The peaks are towering into the clouds, steep and rugged, and the rolling hills are looming in the lingering clouds, like a landscape painting in light ink.

The mountain stream is gurgling and crystal clear, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants grow by the stream, emitting a rich spiritual light. They are all spiritual plants rarely seen in the outside world.

Ji Hongxiu climbed up along the winding mountain road.

From the moment she stepped into the mountains, her temperament became completely different from before. The lazy charm between her eyebrows disappeared, becoming cold and indifferent.

Although his facial features haven't changed, he seems like a different person.

She looked down at the blood-red Taoist robe on her body, her dark brows slightly furrowed, and her mind moved. The Taoist robe instantly changed from bright red to moon-white, making the whole person look even more otherworldly.

He took off the wine gourd from his waist and threw it away.

The next moment, the action stopped, and an urgent voice came out of his mouth:
"You bitch, don't throw my precious gourd!"

"..."

Ji Hongxiu hesitated for a moment, but still put the gourd away.

Continue along the mountain road and you will reach the halfway point. When you push away the thick clouds and mist, the view in front of you will suddenly become clear.

thump—

The sounds of Hong Zhong and Da Lu echoed.

White cranes in the sky flapped their wings and cried loudly and clearly, and streaks of light flashed across the blue sky from time to time.

The pavilions and towers around are scattered in an orderly manner, with flying eaves and brackets, all built of simple bluestone. Ancient seal characters and Taoist maxims can be vaguely seen on the mottled walls, which are full of traces of time.

On the top of the mountain stands a towering palace, with bright and clean pillars and a solemn and majestic appearance.

In the square in front of the temple stands a huge statue made of bluestone. He is wearing a long robe with wide sleeves and his eyes slightly closed, as if overlooking everything in the world.

Ji Hongxiu walked into the hall and an old woman in a black robe came up to her and bowed to her.

"I have met Your Majesty."

"Ah."

Ji Hongxiu nodded slightly.

The old woman looked around and did not see Ling Ningzhi, so she asked, "Your Majesty, didn't Qingxuan come back with you?"

Ji Hongxiu shook her head and said, "She still has things to deal with, so she probably won't be back for a while."

At this moment, the old woman was startled, "Your Majesty, your neck..."

I saw a finger-long scar on the slender neck, as if it was cut by sword energy.

Ji Hongxiu stroked her neck with her fingers and said calmly, "This is an injury caused by Yu Youhan. Her power is incompatible with mine, so it cannot be healed in a short time."

"Yu Youhan?!"

The old woman's pupils shrank into needle points, and she exclaimed, "You fought with that witch?!"

Ji Hongxiu nodded and said, "After testing each other, she has become stronger than before. I'm afraid she has already stepped over the barrier."

"..."

The old woman swallowed hard.

Many years ago, Dao Zun had fought with Yu Youhan. No one knew what the outcome was, but since then, Dao Zun rarely came down the mountain.

When one reaches the realm of Dao Zun, it is no longer about external things. Instead, one is restricted by the shackles of heaven and earth. One has to endure the malice from the entire heaven and earth. Every improvement in cultivation is extremely difficult.

The terrifying thing about Yu Youhan is that her cultivation level has almost no limit!
Getting stronger every moment!

Only after it touched the "source wall" did the speed of increase slow down.

"There's no need to worry too much. I've already discovered her weakness. Now I'm just waiting for an opportunity."

Ji Hongxiu seemed a little tired, and waved her hand and said, "Okay, you go down first. I want to go to Tianchi to cleanse my heart and body. I have been contaminated by a lot of worldly dust since I came down the mountain this time."

"Yes."

The old woman quickly retreated.

Ji Hongxiu walked through the hall and headed towards the back mountain.

Suddenly, a lazy and magnetic voice came from his mouth: "What do you mean by 'stained by worldly dust'? Do you think I have made my body dirty?"

Then his tone became cold again, "Isn't it?"

"Just because I touched Chen Mo's treasure?"

"..."

"Qingxuan can touch it, but I can't?"

"You are her master, can you behave yourself a little?"

“Humph, now you think I’m not serious? It’s all because of you! You’re not capable enough and didn’t kill all three corpses. In the end, you could only forcibly split your soul and threw all the distracting thoughts to me, leaving you feeling relaxed…”

The lazy female voice sounded more and more aggrieved, but Ji Hongxiu's expression remained cold, giving people a strange sense of incongruity.

"Even so, you shouldn't come into contact with others at will. This body doesn't belong to you alone."

"Chen Mo is not someone else. He has the potential to ascend to the throne. He might be the destined one... But then again, if that strand of dragon energy is taken away by Yu Youhan, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"If she wanted to take it away, she would have done it long ago and would not have waited until now. Although I am not clear about their relationship, it is obvious that Yu Youhan's attitude towards Chen Mo is unusual..."

The cold female voice was speaking, and suddenly she raised her hands.

She frowned and asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

The lazy female voice asked curiously, "I saw Chen Mo did the same to Qingxuan, and Qingxuan seemed to enjoy it... It seems a little different?"

"..."

Ji Hongxiu's eyelids twitched. She took back control of her body and pressed her slender jade fingers between her eyebrows.

"No, I just need to stop moving. I don't want to go into the small dark room..."

A brilliant light flashed across the fingertips, and the sound stopped abruptly.

Ji Hongxiu's expression regained its composure, and she walked through the courtyard and into the back mountain.

She came to the misty Tianchi Lake, slowly took off her Taoist robe, revealing her exquisite and graceful body.

The texture is delicate and the flesh and bones are evenly matched. One point more would be too much, one point less would be too little. It is like a flawless jade, with no flaws to be found.

However, there was a strange pattern imprinted on the inside of the left leg, with a faint red light flowing in the lines, which was very eye-catching against the snow-white skin.

Ji Hongxiu stepped into the pool, sat cross-legged, and chanted Taoist mantras with her hands. Her whole body was filled with brilliant light.

Under the rinse of the clear pool water, the skin becomes more crystal clear, and the distracting thoughts in the mind dissipate.

"When the purple light shines, the wind and clouds change. The four seas will be filled with turbulent waves. The rise and fall of hegemony will affect the country, and the success or failure of the ambition will overturn the golden hill."

"The prophecy seems to be coming true. If Chen Mo is the destined person, I really need to do something..."

……

……

Tiandu City.

Tianlin Guard, the inner residence of the Si Ya.

In the bedroom, Li Yuan's face was red, his breathing was rapid, and his voice was trembling as he reported his work:

"After Jiao Rui was thrown into the Imperial Prison, he confessed everything he should have. The relevant evidence has also been handed over to Qilin Pavilion..."

"Your Excellency's appointment letter has been officially issued. I have been promoted to Deputy Captain, in charge of the Ding Fire and Bing Fire Departments... Hmm~ Your Excellency..."

"The position of Dinghuo Division Captain is currently vacant... There is no suitable candidate yet..."

Chen Mo leaned close to her ear and said, "I have already proposed to promote you to the position of Captain of Dinghuo Division. It should be a sure thing... How does Li Zongqi plan to thank me?"

Li Yuan's eyes were blurred and she bit her lips lightly.

For some reason, she felt ashamed of using her beauty to seduce others...

"I have been bullied by you, my lord, what else do you want?"

Chen Mo controlled his qi and blood, and Li Yuan almost suffocated. He hit him in shame and anger.

At this moment, Chen Mo suddenly felt the Demon Suppression Division emblem on his palm getting hot. He raised his brows slightly and raised his hand to pat Tiger's butt.

"Okay, get up."

"Ah."

Li Yuan's legs and feet felt a little weak...

"That's not what I meant. It seems like someone is coming..."

"..." After getting dressed, Chen Mo left the inner house and came to the court.

About half a minute later, an officer walked in quickly and said, "Master Chen, Li Gongfeng from the Demon Suppression Division wants to see you."

Chen Mo nodded and said, "Please come in."

"Yes."

The officer retreated immediately.

After a while, Li Siya, dressed in blue, stepped into the courtroom with a bright smile, and said with a cupped hand, "I heard that Lord Chen has been promoted. Congratulations! As the youngest deputy captain of the Tianlin Guard, you will be promoted straight to the top from now on, and you will surely achieve great things in the future!"

"No, no, this promotion is just luck, it's all thanks to your Highness's favor..."

The two of them spoke politely in a pretentious manner, then looked at each other and laughed.

Li Siya shook his head and sighed, "Unfortunately, when the martial arts test was held, I was out on duty and couldn't go to the scene to witness Brother Chen's demeanor with my own eyes!"

He stepped on the heads of the chief of Tianshu Pavilion and the Buddhist disciple of Wuwang Temple, took off the title of Tianyuan Martial Champion, and became the new leader of the Qingyun list... and he was a fifth-rank warrior. Such strength is simply horrifying!
In addition, he is also proficient in alchemy and formation, and has a strong ability to solve cases...

evildoer!

Apart from this, Li Siya really couldn't think of any other adjectives.

"It's just good luck... No one comes to see me for no reason. Brother Li, what do you want to talk to me about? Is there a case that needs your cooperation?" Chen Mo asked.

Li Siya shook his head and said, "That's not the case. The envoy sent me here to invite Brother Chen to visit the Demon Suppression Division."

"Member?"

Chen Mo asked in confusion: "Why does he want to see me?"

Li Siya spread his hands and said, "I don't know about that... Besides, I also have some questions I want to ask Brother Chen. I wonder if Brother Chen has time recently?"

Chen Mo thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Then let's meet after the shift ends tomorrow."

The relationship between the two has always been very good, and Li Kui usually takes good care of him, so he naturally would not offend Li Siya.

Besides, he was just about to go to the Demon Suppression Division to get some money...

"Okay, then it's settled!"

After getting the confirmation, Li Siya did not stay long and left happily.

Before Chen Mo could sit down properly, another figure walked in.

His temples were gray, he looked energetic, and he was wearing a blue satin shirt with patterns of the sea and river. He looked at him with a slight smile in his eyes.

"Eunuch Jin?"

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, "What brings you here?"

Eunuch Jin cleared his throat and said, "Her Royal Highness the Queen has summoned you. Sir Chen, please come with me to the palace."

?

Thinking of what happened in the sedan that day... Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and asked carefully: "Eunuch, did His Highness say that he wanted to summon me? What's the matter?"

Jin Gonggong smiled and said, "Your Highness already knows what happened in Linyang County, and there are some things he wants to ask Master Chen in person."

"So that's what happened."

Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still a little unsure.

After all, he accidentally kissed the queen's lips that day, which was a serious crime of treason!

But then again, he had pinched the phoenix's buttocks and touched her legs before, and the queen did not pursue the matter.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that I have been a little too lenient with him...

You don't really want him to be your concubine!

"Master Chen?"

Seeing that he was in a daze, Eunuch Jin asked in confusion, "What are you thinking about?"

Chen Mo collected his thoughts and shook his head, saying, "Nothing, let's go."

"Master Chen, please."

"Thank you, father-in-law."

……

Zhaohua Palace.

The queen sat in front of the imperial desk, looking at the confession in her hands, her eyes as cold as ice.

"good very good!"

"I know that the sect has had problems for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be so rampant!"

"The entire Nan Tu Province has been corrupted by the Gu God Cult. From the county governor to the county magistrate, almost everyone has become their vassal... Now they are even trying to sacrifice 10,000 people to refine the Gu worm!"

"It's simply insane and lawless!"

boom!
The queen slammed the imperial desk suddenly, causing ripples under her phoenix robe.

"Your Highness, calm down. The Phoenix's body is the most important!"

Sun Shang Gong hurriedly bowed her head and said, "Fortunately, with Lord Chen here, the Gu Shen Cult's plan failed. Moreover, this is also a great opportunity to rectify the sect..."

The anger in the queen's eyes subsided a little after hearing this.

At this time, the voice of the palace maid came from outside the palace gate: "Your Highness, Master Chen is here."

"Let him in," said the Queen.

"Yes."

The maid responded.

After a while, Chen Mo, dressed in a black robe, walked into the hall, bowed and said, "I pay my respects to Your Highness."

"No gift."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"You all go down."

The queen dismissed her attendants, leaving only her and Chen Mo in the palace, and the atmosphere fell into a brief silence.

Looking at that handsome face, the queen looked a little unnatural, but she quickly suppressed her distracting thoughts and asked, "What exactly happened in Linyang County? Tell me in detail."

"Yes."

Chen Mo told the whole story in detail, starting from the attack on Xihuang Mountain.

This included the Dao Zun breaking the blood poison technique, and Imperial Concubine Yu destroying the southern diocese... This matter was too complicated to conceal, nor was there any need to conceal it.

Listening to his report, the Queen's expression became more complicated.

Like Ji Hongxiu and Yu Youhan, she has always regarded them as thorns in her eyes and flesh.

But if they hadn't taken action this time, Linyang County would have turned into a living hell! Tens of thousands of people would have died and become sacrifices to the poisonous insects!

"The culprit has been executed, and the lives of the people in Linyang are no longer in danger, but the root of the problem still lies with the Gu God Cult."

"As long as this evil cult is not eradicated, there will never be peace in Nantuzhou!"

Chen Mo spoke out.

The Queen nodded and said, "I have already sent people to Nan Tuzhou to investigate this matter. We will use this opportunity to eradicate the Gu God Cult completely!"

Although this incident made her extremely angry, it was also a great opportunity.

The imperial court wanted to intimidate the sect, but lacked a legitimate reason. At this moment, Chen Mo handed the knife to her...

It seemed that every time at a critical moment, this little thief would bring her a surprise...

Chen Mo bowed and said, "Your Highness is wise."

The queen was silent for a moment, then said, "I have another question for you."

Chen Mo said: "Your Highness, please feel free to ask."

The Queen spoke in a cold tone, word by word: "Why is the Taoist Master of Tianshu Pavilion so close to you? Why did Yu Youhan travel thousands of miles to save you? What have you done together these days?"

"..."

Looking at the queen's deep eyes, Chen Mo's throat moved, and he felt inexplicably guilty.

What's with this sense of déjà vu for a big woman?

Why do I feel like a sneaky cat?
