I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 214 Shui Shui's Cultivation! From Beginner to Expert!
"sincere?"

Normally, Ji Lianxing would just laugh dismissively when she heard such words.

Most men in this world are two-faced and deceitful, all sweet talkers who are nothing more than lustful men.

Once a new target is found, their hearts will quickly change, and the so-called vows will become as empty as a mirage.

The more passionate they are at the beginning, the more indifferent they will be when they change their minds.

But now, looking at the man in front of her, she felt a little wavering.

"Are you serious? Do you even know what this Azure Nether Seal is?"

"Of course I know, and I've even used it."

Chen Mo infused the seal with his primordial energy, and the seal transformed, unfolding like a scroll with countless cyan characters surging like the tide.

"As long as enough samples and resources are provided, the cultivation method can be deduced according to the set direction and its rank can be continuously improved..."

"This means you have a portable library, with an almost inexhaustible supply of all kinds of cultivation techniques... It's also the foundation of your Moon Radiance Sect, right?"

Ji Lianxing gazed at the square seal, a hint of longing flashing in her eyes.

Chen Mo is right. The reason why the Moon Radiance Sect was able to rank among the top ten sects is not only because of its own strength, but also because it has tens of thousands of cultivation techniques, covering almost all cultivation styles. As a result, it has attracted a large number of cultivators to join its ranks.

This allowed the Moonbeam Sect to rapidly expand its power, and it soon became a top force that controlled Qingzhou!

However, such rapid development also brings drawbacks. The sect is now a mixed bag, with various factions vying for power and constantly changing their orders.

A council of ten elders can generate more than twenty group chats.

The reason why the Moon Radiance Sect was destroyed was because someone took it upon themselves to kill the envoy who came to negotiate, relying on the sect's powerful influence, which thoroughly enraged the Imperial Concubine...

When Ji Lianxing emerged from seclusion, the mountain gate had already been reduced to ruins...

"As long as we retrieve this item, our sect will be able to revive!"

"But……"

"Would he really entrust me with such a valuable treasure? Or is there a trap?"

Ji Lianxing suppressed her agitated emotions and frowned, saying, "Are you sure you're using this Azure Nether Seal just to exchange for Manzhi and Henshui's freedom?"

"Yes."

"In your opinion, this action seems foolish, even incomprehensible."

"But in my eyes, they are the real treasures. This damn Azure Nether Seal is worthless compared to them."

"This is the difference between you and me."

Chen Mo's lips curled up in a mocking and sarcastic tone as he said calmly, "Weren't you having trouble understanding why they so decisively 'betrayed' you and chose to stand on my side?"

"the reason is simple……"

"Because I will also choose them without hesitation."

Upon hearing this, Ji Lianxing's pupils trembled slightly, and her hand clenched tightly within her sleeve.

Looking at his two disciples, who were bowing their heads and remaining silent, he was filled with complex emotions that he couldn't quite put his finger on.

At this moment, she finally understood why the two of them were so infatuated with this guy...

"So, what's Ji Zongzhu's decision?" Chen Mo asked.

Ji Lianxing remained silent.

Chen Mo's move was a perfectly legitimate and open "open strategy".

If she agrees, then no matter the outcome, all the previous bond between master and disciple will be nullified.

However, refusing would mean that the sect would completely lose the possibility of rebuilding...

After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke up, "How can I believe you didn't cheat?"

What if this is a trap set by Yu Youhan, and he wants to capture them all?
Chen Mo walked up to her, sat down in a chair with an air of nonchalance, and said, "Don't worry, I have no interest in scheming against you. Whether you live or die is meaningless to me..."

"Besides, I don't want Her Majesty to know their identities either. On this issue, we are on the same side."

"As long as you can provide a first-class Creation Gold Contract, I can sign a contract with you, which will ensure that neither of us will break our promise."

Seeing his completely naked appearance, Ji Lianxing frowned and looked away somewhat awkwardly.

"Can't you put your clothes on first?"

"A gentleman is open and honest, while a petty person hides his true intentions. I, your humble servant, have always been this open and honest..." Chen Mo toyed with the Azure Seal in his hand, saying calmly, "If you were truly so concerned about your reputation, you wouldn't have been hiding in the corner peeking earlier. Now you're pretending to be a respectable person..."

"..."

Ji Lianxing's eyebrows twitched.

For the sake of the Azure Seal, she suppressed her anger.

With her hands smoothing her skirt, she sat opposite him, trying her best to avoid looking at the eyesore, and said in a deep voice, "You should know that the Creation Golden Contract is a rare and precious item, especially since it is a first-class golden contract that can bind a grandmaster... Where am I supposed to get one for you?"

"That's your problem to consider, it's none of my business," Chen Mo said slowly.

Ji Lianxing: "..."

Chen Mo had considered this matter before.

Instead of expending your own time and effort, it's better to pass the problem on to the other party.

With the Empress as a deterrent, she wouldn't dare to act rashly. Once the two parties signed the contract, the future troubles would be completely resolved.

Ji Lianxing frowned in thought.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

"There's no rush to do this."

"Once you've made up your mind, you can come to me with the Creation Contract. The conditions I just mentioned will remain in effect forever."

"However, before that, you can't cause any more trouble for Gu Manzhi and Ye Henshui, otherwise you'll never be able to get the Azure Seal back."

At this point, Chen Mo stretched and yawned lazily, saying, "I'm going to continue taking a bath. Is Sect Leader Ji planning to watch over me?"

"..."

"Walk slowly without sending."

"..."

……

……

Ji Lianxing left the brothel in a daze, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

Originally, she wanted to help her disciple turn back from the brink of disaster, but in the end, she not only failed to obtain the Azure Seal, but also gave her disciple away.
This guy got something for nothing?

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we absolutely cannot let it slip by."

"But what about Manzhi and Shuishui..."

Ji Lianxing was deeply conflicted.

She was not a cold-blooded person. Having watched the two grow up, their feelings for each other went far beyond that of a typical master and disciple; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them family.

But reason told her that she still carried the burden of a blood feud and the heavy responsibility of rebuilding her sect.

"Given Chen Mo's relationship with Tian Shu Pavilion, this might be an opportunity for Yuehuang Sect... Anyway, the Creation Golden Contract isn't something that can be found in a short time. We still need to keep an eye on him for now to prevent him from playing tricks behind our backs."

Moreover, she was still somewhat worried about her two apprentices...

Thinking of this, Ji Lianxing stopped in her tracks, her figure transforming into a shadow, and silently drifted back once more.

……

……

In the bathroom.

Chen Mo's eyes shone with a purple-gold light as he dismantled the array that Ji Lianxing had set up.

Then, after carefully checking every inch of the corner and making sure nothing was missed, I finally felt relieved.

"Come here you two."

Chen Mo sat in the chair and spoke.

Gu Manzhi and Ye Henshui followed closely to him, their heads bowed as they fiddled with their fingers, avoiding his gaze.

"I was wondering why you two were acting so strange today, especially Xiao Hui. You used to treat me like a monster, but this time you invited me to enroll..." Chen Mo said, both amused and annoyed. "And you kept saying things like 'I have nothing to repay you with but my body,' you're really something!"

"..."

Ye Henshui's face flushed red, her lips moved, and she stammered, "I had no choice... Master doesn't believe that dual cultivation can improve one's cultivation level, and he even tried to harm you... I can't just stand by and do nothing..."

"So, you're going to offer yourself to Ji Lianxing in front of her?"

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "And Manzhi, you too, actually helped her do reckless things?"

Gu Manzhi blinked and muttered softly, "It was bound to happen sooner or later anyway..."

?

Chen Mo rubbed his temples.

He wasn't pretending to be a virtuous gentleman.

If Ji Lianxing hadn't interrupted me, I would have already been exploring the Water Path.

But these things should happen naturally; it's pointless to force them... Besides, it happened in front of Ji Lianxing, so it felt a bit awkward no matter how you looked at it...

"Lord Chen, please don't blame the Holy Maiden. This is my own decision."

Ye Henshui gripped her bodice with her slender fingers and said softly, "You saved my life, but compared to that, it's nothing..."

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "I told you, I saved you because of Manzhi, and I don't need you to repay me."

Hearing this, Ye Henshui felt a lump in her throat and bit her lip without saying a word.

Gu Manzhi gave him a quiet, disapproving look.

"My lord is still being stubborn... You clearly called him 'treasure' when you were negotiating with Master just now. Do you think I can't see what you're up to?"

"Ahem, I just said it offhand."

Chen Mo cleared his throat.

Gu Manzhi ignored him and whispered something in Ye Henshui's ear.

Ye Henshui's face turned from white to red, like a ripe cherry. There was some tension and panic in her eyes. After hesitating for a long time, she still nodded gently.

……

……

Chen Mo soaked comfortably in the bathtub, the warm water enveloping his entire body.

Ji Lianxing's sudden appearance was both unexpected and expected.

His relationship with Gu Manzhi couldn't be hidden forever; it would be exposed sooner or later... It wouldn't be bad to take this opportunity to lay it all out.

"Ji Lianxing is indeed very strong, at least no weaker than Zhong Lihe, and should be at the peak of the second rank? Or even the first rank?"

"However, within Tiandu City, she dared not use her power above the Grandmaster level. Although she still couldn't defeat me, she was equally helpless against me..."

"If it weren't for the worry that it would implicate Manzhi, I would really like Your Majesty to get rid of her directly to prevent future troubles..."

Just as Chen Mo was pondering to himself, a series of footsteps sounded.

Looking up, I saw two women named "Gu Manzhi" push open the door and walk in. Their waists swayed, like willows in the wind, and their beautiful faces were adorned with charming smiles.

Alright, here comes the two-star saintess again.

The two sat sideways on the edge of the pool, their slender hands gently massaging his shoulders and neck. Then their palms slid down, brushing over his firm chest and well-defined abdominal muscles…

"My lord, is your strength still sufficient?"

A soft, seductive voice reached my ears.

wow-

Just then, the sound of water was heard.

Immediately afterwards, a soft and delicate body fell into his arms.

Immediately afterwards...

Chen Mo looked up and was immediately stunned.

"Little Grey? What's going on...?"

Ye Henshui frowned slightly and said in a trembling voice, "This time... it's very accurate..."

Chen Mo: ?
After completing their task, the two counselors quietly withdrew, keeping their achievements hidden.

Only the two of them remained in the bathroom.

Looking at the white-haired girl before him, Chen Mo remained silent for a moment before saying helplessly, "Why do you have to do this?"

Ye Henshui placed her delicate hand on his shoulder, her voice trembling slightly, "Lord Chen, please don't misunderstand. I'm not doing this to repay a debt of gratitude, but... but I really want to try..."

???

Ye Henshui's cheeks flushed like peach blossoms, and she said shyly, "Master always said that men are poisonous, but not only was Senior Sister not poisoned, her cultivation has also improved significantly. I... I want to try it too..."

"Besides, if we don't experience it firsthand, wouldn't all the suffering we've endured be for nothing?"

"..."

Chen Mo was speechless for a moment.

Originally, he and Gu Manzhi were worried that their relationship would be exposed, so they used "coercion and enticement" to bring Ye Henshui onto the pirate ship as well... but they never thought it would really develop to this extent.

After all, Ye Henshui was far too naive in this respect, which made him feel a strange sense of guilt.

"I've broken ties with my master; there's no turning back..."

“Since you say you'll redeem me, then I belong to you. Lord Chen, you have to take responsibility for me… right now…”

"..."

Chen Mo's lips twitched slightly.

He stood up directly from the bathtub.

"Fine, you asked for it!"

Ye Henshui: ∑(O_O；)
……

……

Ji Lianxing's figure, like a shadow, slipped into the bath through a gap in the air vent in the dome.

The room was filled with steam and empty.

The carefully laid array had been completely dismantled. In addition, she discovered several extremely well-hidden detection arrays, which had obviously been set up not long ago.

"So fast? This guy's array skills are truly remarkable..."

"The last time I saw him, he was only a fourth-rank martial artist. How long has it been? He has already mastered orthodox thunder techniques and even cultivated the Azure Jade Scripture to a minor level..."

"What a freak!"

Ji Lianxing shook her head and sighed inwardly.

This can't be described as talent; it's like God is feeding him a gift.

"There must be a reason why Dao Zun and Yu Youhan value him so much. This kid is probably hiding a big secret!" This further strengthened her resolve to "keep an eye on" Chen Mo.

"Strange, where have everyone gone?"

Just then, she noticed strange noises coming from next door.

He flashed past and arrived in the bedroom.

He was immediately stunned by the sight before him, and stood there frozen like a statue.

Chen Mo's muscles were bulging, his blood was surging, and his whole body was radiating heat, making him look as fierce as a humanoid beast.

In comparison, Ye Henshui appeared quite petite and completely at his mercy...

"..."

A barely perceptible blush crossed Ji Lianxing's cheeks as she turned her head away and spat.

"This traitor, in broad daylight, actually did such a despicable thing!"

"This is utterly absurd!"

She wanted to rush up and separate the two immediately, but seeing Ye Henshui's distraught appearance, she stopped in her tracks.

It's too late to say anything now; this girl is already deeply involved and can't extricate herself.

"Hen Shui was so naive and ignorant of the ways of the world that she actually believed in the nonsense that dual cultivation could improve one's cultivation level, which ultimately led to her ruining herself!"

"Chen Mo, you just wait, this isn't over..."

"Um?!"

Suddenly, Ji Lianxing froze.

A blue halo emanated from Ye Henshui's brow, and the ancient bronze book slowly unfurled, revealing countless tadpole-like characters that leaped out like a tide, making his surroundings appear as clear as crystal.

Their primordial energy intertwined, the blue light between their brows grew increasingly intense, and their auras were rising steadily!
"Heaven and earth nurture jade, chaos conceals azure, primordial energy condenses, and the azure sky nurtures spirits..."

"This is a sign that the Azure Jade True Scripture is nearing completion!"

"How, how is it possible?!"

Ji Lianxing's eyes were filled with disbelief.

The Azure Jade True Scripture is extremely powerful, standing out even among the Heavenly Rank scriptures, and contains all sorts of wondrous powers.

However, the difficulty of cultivation is also extremely high.

Especially this last step, countless geniuses are stuck here. Even someone as talented as Gu Manzhi has practiced hard for years without making any progress.

Besides talent and hard work, one also needs sufficient understanding and opportunity.

But in just a quarter of an hour, Ye Henshui had already reached the threshold of mastery!
Moreover, Ji Lianxing could see that this was not a heretical method that forced growth, but a genuine enlightenment!
The two auras merged together, like yin and yang in harmony, like fish and water in perfect fusion. During this process, Ye Henshui's cultivation level rose rapidly as if he were riding a flying sword!
"No dual cultivation method can achieve this effect."

"The problem lies with Chen Mo. His primordial energy contains the aura of the Great Dao, which can bring people into a state of enlightenment... So what they said was true, but this is too outrageous!"

Faced with the facts, Ji Lianxing had no choice but to believe them.

It wasn't that Chen Mo deceived his apprentice; on the contrary, Chen Mo was their destiny!

"and many more……"

"Since Chen Mo has this ability, wouldn't it be possible to mass-produce top experts just by having him continuously cultivate with the disciples of the Moon Radiance Sect?"

"You should know that once you master the Azure Jade True Scripture, the probability of breaking through to the Grandmaster level will increase significantly!"

"What would it mean to have hundreds, or even thousands, of quasi-grandmasters at that time?"

"Let alone the eight major sects, we could even challenge the Three Saints Sect!"

Ji Lianxing's breathing became increasingly rapid.

At this moment, she finally realized that the treasure of the Moon Radiance Sect was not the Azure Nether Seal at all!

It was Chen Mo!

"Perhaps the details of the deal could be changed slightly."

His dark purple eyes were as deep as a pool, and it was impossible to know what he was thinking.

crunch--

Just then, the door was gently pushed open.

Wearing only a pink bodice, Gu Manzhi walked in silently with her long legs, walked around the screen, and lifted the gauze curtain...

A moment later, Ye Henshui's exclamation rang out:
"Holy Maiden?! You... how did you get here?"

"When you drink water, you shouldn't forget the well-digger, my lord. You can't just think about her and forget about me..."

"Senior sister, no, don't do that... No, no..."

"..."

Ji Lianxing couldn't bear to watch any longer and turned to leave the room.

"It seems we still need to stay in Tiandu City for a while longer and thoroughly investigate Chen Mo's background... Everyone has weaknesses. If force doesn't work, we'll try a softer approach. I'm not afraid he won't give in..."

"If we can really train dozens of grandmasters, then we'll have a chance to get revenge!"

Ji Lianxing was certainly not so naive as to think that she could contend with Yu Youhan with just this.

As the saying goes, all those below a grandmaster are but ants, and even a grandmaster is no different before a supreme being.

For someone of Yu Youhan's caliber, a sheer number of people is useless; there's no difference between one ant and a swarm of ants.

However, as long as the Moon Radiance Sect has enough capital, it can sit at the table and negotiate with the Three Saints Sect, using the power of the Supreme One to deal with Yu Youhan!
"I am no match for you, but surely the Daoist Master can defeat you?"

"If all else fails, we can bring in the Martial Saint Sect as well. After all, both of the two great sects have close ties with Chen Mo... Two against one, the advantage is in our favor!"

Ji Lianxing couldn't help but curl up her lips, as if she could already imagine the wonderful scene of herself flattening Hanxiao Palace!

Just as she was walking through the corridor, preparing to leave the Jiaofangsi, she suddenly heard a low conversation coming from a room.

"That voice sounds familiar, could it be that courtesan?"

"What was it called again..."

"Yu'er?"

Ji Lianxing spread her divine sense to investigate the situation inside the room.

Yu'er was sitting in a chair, with a thin woman in a gray-blue cloth dress standing beside her.

Yu'er took out a purse from her bosom and handed it to the other person, saying softly, "Ling'er, take this money and use it to buy some clothes for yourself and your aunt. If you need anything, just let me know."

"Thank you, miss."

The woman called Ling'er reached out and took it, but accidentally revealed the bruise on her wrist.

Although she quickly withdrew her hand, Yu'er still managed to capture the moment.

"show me."

Yu'er grabbed her wrist and pulled up her sleeve, her pupils trembling slightly.

Her arms, excessively thin due to malnutrition, were covered with crisscrossing scars... Some were old wounds, but most were new ones, and several whip marks were oozing blood.

Yu'er's face darkened, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Who did this?"

"Yes, I fell by accident," Ling'er said, her head bowed.

"You accidentally fell on the whip?" Yu'er took a deep breath and said, "I have already informed everyone that no one is allowed to make things difficult for the women of the Xu family, so why did someone still dare to lay a hand on you?"

Ling'er lowered her head and remained silent.

Yu'er tentatively asked, "Young Master?"

Ling'er trembled, her eyes filled with deep fear.
