I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 237 Ji Baixiu's Change! A Win-Win Solution!

Ji Hongxiu glanced at Chen Mo briefly before looking away, her cold face revealing no emotion.

"Is it an illusion?"

Chen Mo frowned slightly.

I feel that this time the "white sleeves" look is a bit different from the previous ones.

Ji Hongxiu is the Daoist's real name, while "Baixiu" is a nickname given to her by the Three Corpse Yin Gods.

But it must be said, this nickname is quite fitting... He likes to wear white, is as aloof as snow, and even the peach blossoms that bloom on his face are white...

"You haven't answered my question yet..."

A dangerous aura filled Yu Youhan's blue-green eyes. "What was going on with you just now? Why did you suddenly go into heat?"

Even the slowest person can tell something is wrong.

Although Ji Hongxiu usually seemed unrestrained, she could still control her behavior and wouldn't do anything too outrageous... But just now she clearly lost control, especially with that burning, infatuated look in her eyes, as if she wanted to devour Chen Mo alive!
Fortunately, she used a red ribbon to bind Ji Hongxiu at the last moment, otherwise, the same story as Ling Ningzhi would have unfolded!
"This master and apprentice are both outrageous!"

"I'll make you all into red bean paste sooner or later!"

Yu Youhan gritted her teeth secretly.

Ji Hongxiu's fingers, hidden in her sleeves, clenched slightly. Her expression remained unchanged as she calmly said, "After all, she was just a wisp of Yin spirit, her Dao heart was not firm, she was too eager for quick success, and coupled with the influence of the Three Corpses, that's why she suddenly lost control..."

"That's all?" Yu Youhan looked doubtful.

"Otherwise what?" Ji Hongxiu sneered, "Do you think I would be interested in Chen Mo?"

"It's hard to say..."

Yu Youhan looked her up and down, his tone chilling as he said, "You were quite talkative at first, but then you suddenly fell silent... Actually, you had already regained consciousness at that point, right?"

"But he still clung to me, rubbing against me, and muttering Chen Mo's name..."

"Ji Hongxiu, you haven't actually fallen for worldly desires, have you?"

"..."

A hint of panic flashed across Ji Hongxiu's eyes as she coldly said, "This was just an accident. You can rest assured that I have no other intentions towards Chen Mo."

"Really?" Yu Youhan raised an eyebrow.

“I entered the Dao through ‘Supreme Forgetfulness of Emotions.’ If it were truly as you say, my Dao heart would crumble in an instant, and all my cultivation would be wasted… You should be well aware of this,” Ji Hongxiu said solemnly.

Yu Youhan nodded.

Once you reach their level of spiritual cultivation, there is no turning back.

Since one enters the path of detachment from emotions, one can only end by detachment from emotions; otherwise, one is destroying one's own path.

"What about what we agreed on before?" Yu Youhan crossed her arms and said, "Don't tell me that it was another personality who agreed to it, and it has nothing to do with you?"

Ji Hongxiu said with her hands behind her back, "She is right about one thing: slaying demons and eliminating evil to relieve the people's suffering is the duty of the Tian Shu Pavilion... No matter what your purpose is, as long as you can kill that demon lord, it will be a good thing for the people of Kyushu. I will naturally take on this responsibility."

"As for the terms that were agreed upon at the time..."

"Let's wait until this matter is completely resolved before discussing it further."

Yu Youhan nodded and said, "Alright, I will send you a message once I am ready."

"Ah."

Ji Hongxiu didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

As she passed by Chen Mo, she paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The dragon energy on your body is of great benefit to my cultivation. Although it was not my intention, I still benefited from it... I will not accept favors for nothing. Since I gave you two supernatural powers last time, I will give you an item this time."

Ji Hongxiu took a ring off the middle finger of her left hand and handed it to Chen Mo.

"This is……"

Chen Mo was somewhat puzzled and did not reach out to take it.

"It's nothing, just an ordinary storage ring. I know you have a storage bag, but this is still more convenient." Ji Hongxiu placed the ring on the small table beside her and said, "Keep it if you like it, or throw it away if you don't."

Having said that, without waiting for Chen Mo to refuse, she turned and drifted away.

crunch--

As soon as Ji Hongxiu pushed open the door, she saw two figures flash by.

He Yuzhi stood with her hands behind her back, looking up at the sky as if she were observing the celestial phenomena, while Ling Ningzhi lowered her head, as if she were reflecting on her mistakes.

"..."

Ji Hongxiu cleared her throat and said, "Zhi'er, come here."

"Master."

Ling Ningzhi slowly raised her head.

Her eyes were slightly red, and her pupils were filled with tears. Her pink lips were pouting, almost as if they could hold an oil bottle.

Ji Hongxiu knew that she must have heard the noise in the room. After a moment of silence, she said, "I know you feel wronged, but some things can't be explained in a short time... But don't worry, just give me some time, and I will definitely handle it..."

"Master, you and Chen Mo..." Ling Ningzhi hesitated before speaking.

"No."

Ji Hongxiu shook her head. "Not yet."

Ling Ningzhi breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this.

If her master really did have something happen with Chen Mo, how should she deal with it?
On one side is the master who has imparted knowledge and taught me, and on the other side is the person I've already chosen as my love. Isn't being caught in the middle a real dilemma...?

I can't just stay with my master...

What am I thinking about?

Ling Ningzhi patted her face, trying to clear her mind.

But the image of the three of them sleeping together in the same bed that day keeps replaying in my mind...

Seeing her beloved disciple's ever-changing expression, Ji Hongxiu sighed softly, said no more, turned around and went to He Yuzhi, performed a Daoist bow, and said:
"I apologize for my abrupt visit today, which may be an inconvenience to your household. I hope you will not take offense."

How could I possibly blame you for saying that...

He Yuzhi was also a semi-江湖人 (jianghu person, someone who had been involved in the martial arts world), so she naturally knew the significance of Tian Shu Pavilion.

Moreover, the person in front of her was the head of the Tian Shu Pavilion, one of the few supreme experts standing at the pinnacle of the Nine Provinces. His current humble demeanor inevitably made her feel uneasy.

He Yuzhi had a sudden thought and forced a smile, saying, "It's alright, as long as Sect Leader Ji enjoys himself."

"..."

Ji Hongxiu's eyelids twitched. "Farewell."

With a flick of his sleeve, the void shattered, and his figure vanished without a trace.

He Yuzhi relaxed her tense body and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Although Ji Hongxiu did not deliberately release any pressure, people with such a reputation still felt a lot of pressure in the face of such an existence.

"strangeness……"

"Why does the Daoist Master seem like a completely different person all of a sudden?"

"And what exactly is her relationship with Chen Mo? It doesn't seem that simple... Also, why is Her Majesty involved?"

He Yuzhi rubbed her temples; her head was throbbing.

What exactly has this kid been up to behind the scenes?!

……

……

After Ji Hongxiu left, the hall became quiet.

Chen Mo picked up the ring and was momentarily stunned.

"What, you're reluctant to let her go?" Yu Youhan said calmly. Chen Mo seemed to wake from a dream, shaking his head and saying, "This humble servant just finds it strange that Daoist's attitude seems somewhat different from before... Your Majesty, what about this ring..."

Yu Youhan glanced at it, a flash of blue light in his eyes, and said, "It's just a storage ring. You can keep it if you want it."

"Oh."

Chen Mo put the ring away.

Recalling what had just happened, she forced a smile and whispered, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

A barely perceptible blush crossed Yu Youhan's cheeks.

Actually, she wasn't much better off than Ji Hongxiu, but she had experienced more in the past, which improved her tolerance and prevented her from showing a violent reaction...

My legs are still a little weak...

"I'm fine." Yu Youhan frowned and said, "But you, how could you have let Ji Hongxiu end up like that?"

Although she found Ji Hongxiu's method of severing the soul quite distasteful, she had to admit that in terms of the firmness of her resolve, the other party was no less than her.

Yet this supreme being of the Dao of Forgetfulness revealed such a shameless demeanor.

It was something she simply couldn't understand.

Chen Mo looked bewildered and said, "This humble servant doesn't know either. Just when the dragon energy touched the peach tree's Dharma image, it suddenly went out of control. Then, the life essence also started to go berserk. And then, the Dao Venerable seemed to have lost his mind..."

Yu Youhan's eyes darkened slightly.

I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong, but I have a bad feeling about it.

"By the way, Your Majesty, from what you just said, you seem to be planning to join forces with Daoist Venerable to deal with the Demon Lord?" Chen Mo asked.

Yu Youhan sat in a chair, legs crossed, and said coldly, "The demon race has come to cause trouble time and time again, and that demon lord has even taken action personally. It's clear that they've already set their sights on you... Rather than that, it's better to turn the tables and find a way to kill that demon lord..."

"But……"

Chen Mo hesitated.

After all, the demon lord's origins are mysterious, and he is very likely to be the final boss of the next expansion. His strength is still unknown, and he may not be much weaker than the empress...

Yu Youhan saw his worry and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

It was clear from their last encounter that although this demon lord was of a high level, he did not seem to be strong in combat power, but rather in various strange and unpredictable spells and mechanisms.

The desolate region is the territory of the demon race, and if we rashly attack their territory, we will likely not come out unscathed.

The mindset of a strong person should be one of self-confidence, not arrogance.

That's why she chose to join forces with Ji Hongxiu, and she needed to find a suitable opportunity.

"I've said it before, since you dared to attack me, you'll have to pay the price." Yu Youhan's killing intent was undisguised. "We'll deal with the Demon Lord first, then Ji Hongxiu, and once the situation is settled, we'll slowly deal with Jiang Yuchan..."

?

Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat.

Daoist Master doesn't care, but the Empress must not be harmed!
However, he knew the Empress's personality; saying anything at this moment would only make the situation worse.

"My lady..."

He reached out and pulled Yu Youhan into his arms, pressing her round buttocks against his lap, his hands encircling her slender waist, and whispered, "No matter which path Your Majesty chooses, this humble servant will walk with you to the end."

Yu Youhan's cheeks flushed slightly, but she didn't break free. She snorted coldly, "You talk a good game, but if I were to actually lay a hand on Jiang Yuchan, you'd probably be heartbroken, wouldn't you?"

Chen Mo ran his fingers over the smooth skin and said, "This humble servant just feels that this is not the best way... In terms of cultivation, Your Highness is naturally far superior to the Empress, but in terms of governing the country, the Empress is probably still better."

From the moment she announced her regency, it took her only two short years to stabilize the nearly collapsing court.

The Queen's abilities are beyond question.

Yu Youhan knew in her heart that if she really became emperor, she would definitely be a foolish ruler, and the foundation of the Great Yuan Dynasty would most likely be destroyed in her hands...

But so what?
"I know what you want to say."

"The Yuan Dynasty is now beset by internal and external troubles, riddled with holes, and has long been rotten to the core."

"Since that's the case, why not squeeze out every last bit of value to help me ascend to godhood?"

"As for the hundreds of millions of ordinary people... regardless of the rise and fall of the nation, some people will suffer. Besides, even if everyone in the world were to die, what would it have to do with me?"

Yu Youhan spoke calmly and casually.

Although she always appeared "easy to bully" in front of Chen Mo, in essence, she was still that female demon who treated human life as worthless!
Even if the land is stained with blood, he wouldn't even flinch.

Chen Mo frowned and said, "That's true, but if the Great Yuan Dynasty really falls, I'm afraid the Chen family will be the first to suffer..."

Yu Youhan leaned against him and said, "I have already considered this matter. No matter what the situation is, I will protect the Chen family."

"What about the Shen family, the Lin family, the Xu family, the Ling family...?" Chen Mo blinked and asked.

"..."

Yu Youhan's chest heaved as she glared at Chen Mo angrily. "You mean, I not only have to protect your family, but also your woman?! What do you take me for?"

"Baby," Chen Mo said seriously.

Yu Youhan's expression froze, and she almost couldn't catch her breath.

She found herself completely helpless against this shameless guy...

"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to find a way to satisfy both sides," Chen Mo sighed.

"There is another way..."

Yu Youhan bit her lip, a hint of shyness flashing in her blue eyes.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo asked curiously, "What method?"

Yu Youhan turned her head away, a faint blush appearing on her neck, her voice almost inaudible, "It's too early to talk about these things now, let's wait until you break through to the first rank..."

……

……

dong dong dong-

Half an hour later, He Yuzhi knocked on the door and then carefully pushed it open and walked in.

But Chen Mo was the only one left in the hall, sitting blankly in a chair.

"Has Her Majesty left?" He Yuzhi asked as she stepped forward.

Chen Mo snapped out of his daze and nodded, saying, "Let's go..."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a sharp pain shot through her. He Yuzhi grabbed his ear and twisted it several times, saying angrily, "You brat, how many things are you hiding from me?! Just tell me the truth, what were the three of you doing in the room just now?"

"No, nothing..."

Chen Mo grinned and said, "I just witnessed an earth-shattering grinding party..."

He Yuzhi: ?

……

……

Dongsheng Prefecture, Fuyun Mountain.

Ji Hongxiu took off her clothes and soaked in Tianchi Lake.

Looking down, her gaze pierced through the clear pool water, she could clearly see the scarlet lines on her thighs, and a blush crept onto her cheeks.

"Even though the Dao patterns haven't activated, why does it feel so strange..."

"Chen Mo..."

She murmured to herself, her fair hands gently parting the water's surface.

The pool water rippled, shattering the reflection of that exquisite face...
