I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 244 The Clever Chen Family's Big Belly! Chen Mo Wants to Redeem Yu'er from Her Prison?

"You mean, you and Commander Li together..."

After listening to Shen Zhixia's incoherent rambling for a while, Ling Ningzhi finally caught the key point and said with a surprised expression, "I was wondering why you left without saying a word... The three of you actually did something like this at the Tianlin Guard Headquarters?!"

"This...this is too absurd!"

Shen Zhixia's cheeks flushed, she rubbed her eyes, and sobbed, "No, it was that Madam Yan who put the drug in the cakes. Li Baihu and I ate the whole box, so things got a little out of control... But I didn't talk to my brother, it was Li Baihu..."

Recalling the situation at the time, she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

After the drugs took effect, the two began to act out of control and almost committed acts of violence in broad daylight, which Chen Mo had to carry them into the inner room.

At that time, Shen Zhixia still had some rationality left. She was worried that Li Yuan would be embarrassed, so out of a sense of responsibility as the eldest wife of the Chen family, she wanted to set an example for her first.

Before she could even react, Li Yuan had already struck first, shoving Chen Mo to the ground and turning to her, saying, "Watch closely, Miss Shen, I'll only demonstrate this once..."

And then……

Shen Zhixia bit her lip, threw herself into Ling Ningzhi's arms, and sobbed, "I was such a fool, I thought Li Baihu and my brother were just kissing... but they had already done everything!"

"..."

My silly sister, you're only just realizing this now...

Ling Ningzhi reached out and patted her back, comforting her, "Good things come to those who wait. As Chen Mo's official fiancée, you should wait until after the formal marriage to consummate the marriage. This shows how much he values ​​you... As for us... cough cough, those of us who have no official status, it doesn't matter to us."

Hearing this, Shen Zhixia felt a little better. She wiped away her tears and said, "You can't say that. Commander Li is a really good person. I just didn't expect her and my brother to develop their relationship so quickly."

Ling Ningzhi sighed.

This girl is good in every way, except she's too soft-hearted. She witnessed something like this and still spoke up for Li Yuan.

However, if she hadn't been so soft-hearted, she wouldn't have agreed to let her be with Chen Mo, and the two of them would probably have been able to keep their relationship secret for the rest of their lives...

"So, you didn't do 'that' with Chen Mo after all?" Ling Ningzhi asked.

Shen Zhixia shook her head, a little shyly saying, "Actually, I almost couldn't hold back at the time, but my brother said that such a beautiful moment should be savored and not rushed..."

Ling Ningzhi's lips twitched slightly.

When did Chen Mo become so conscientious?
She was certain that this guy was absolutely afraid that He Yuzhi would break his legs afterward!

"Wait a minute," Ling Ningzhi thought of something and asked in confusion, "If that's the case, then how did you detoxify yourself?"

Shen Zhixia's expression stiffened upon hearing this, and she stammered, "That's not important..."

Seeing this, Ling Ningzhi became even more curious and was about to ask further when Shen Zhixia changed the subject, pouting and saying, "Miss Gu, Miss Yu'er, and Commander Li have all done that kind of thing with my brother..."

"I was the first one here, but I ended up being the last one..."

"But thankfully, the Taoist priest was with me..."

"Master, you wouldn't lie to me, would you?"

Ling Ningzhi's eyes darted around, "Of course."

"That's good, we're best friends for life!" Shen Zhixia quickly regained her energy, put her hands on her hips, and said, "But this time I did gain something. Clever as I am, I keenly discovered a fatal weakness in my brother..."

"If he dares to bully us again, we'll deal with him like this..."

She pulled Ling Ningzhi aside and began sharing her experiences.

Ling Ningzhi's lips twitched, but she didn't say much. She could only put on a serious expression and listen attentively to the burly man's teachings...

……

……

Prince Yu's Mansion.

Inside the study, the bookshelves slid aside, and the walls rippled like water, slowly revealing Chu Heng's figure.

He was dressed in a brocade robe, his face was pale, and his left eye had returned to normal, but upon closer inspection, one could still see the scarlet blood color hidden in the pupil.

"Young Master, are you feeling any better?" the old steward asked with concern.

Chu Heng wiped the bloodstains from his hands with a handkerchief and said calmly, "It's probably recovered to about 70%. The blood quality of these mortals is still a bit lacking."

"By the way, aren't there many sect disciples in the city? We can capture a few and bring them over; I feel like that would help us improve even further."

He also remembered that when the conflict broke out between him and Chen Mo at the Jiaofangsi, several sect disciples came to join in the fun and beat him up...

"These peasants will pay the price sooner or later!" Chu Heng's eyes were cold.

The old steward said, "The political climate at court has been rather unfavorable lately. Her Majesty the Empress intends to reopen the cases of the barbarians and the Zhou family. There are countless eyes in the capital watching us, so we must be careful..."

Chu Heng glanced at him and said coldly, "I asked you to deal with Chen Mo, but you couldn't do it in time. Now you're making excuses to capture a few martial artists. Why should I keep a good-for-nothing like you around?"

The old steward's face darkened upon hearing this.

Although he was a servant in the royal household, he was still a Grandmaster of the Celestial Realm. The young master usually treated him with respect, but now he seemed to have become a different person.

"It seems that the blood bead has a great influence on temperament; the young master's personality is becoming more and more eccentric."

The old steward didn't say much, but bowed his head and said, "Understood, this old servant will take care of it in a moment."

"That's pretty much it."

Chu Heng sat down in his chair with an air of authority and asked, "Is there any movement from Chen Mo's side?"

The old steward replied, "Chen Mo is now in charge of both cases. He has already arrested Yan Linghu and imprisoned him. His ultimate goal is definitely to deal with us. Yan Linghu is spineless and has probably already confessed."

"It doesn't matter." Chu Heng waved his hand dismissively, "It's just a statement, but there's no concrete evidence. It poses no threat to me."

"Do they really think the Prince Yu's mansion is a pushover?"

“Even the Tianlin Guard has no right to touch me. They must first conduct a joint trial by the three judicial departments. Now that the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice regard him as a thorn in their side, how could they possibly assist him in handling the case?”

"That's what I said..."

The old butler hesitated, a vague unease creeping into his heart.

Based on his understanding of Chen Mo, now that things had come to a head, he would definitely not let it go easily and was likely brewing something in secret.

"hiss--"

At this moment, Chu Heng frowned, pressed his fingers to his temples, and a hint of pain flashed across his face.

Chen Mo's Soul-Slaying move almost destroyed his soul. Although he has been stabilized by the strange effect of the Blood Bead, he has not fully recovered and still suffers from unbearable headaches from time to time.

"Chen Mo..."

Chu Heng's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a deep-seated hatred.

Immediately, he took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his chest, and said in a deep voice, "This matter is secondary. What I didn't expect was that the Crown Prince would actually intervene, and the evidence that Chen Zhuo submitted in court was probably also the work of the Qianji Palace..."

"Is His Majesty giving me a warning?"

"The Empress, the Imperial Concubine, His Majesty, and even the demon race are all paying excessive attention to Chen Mo; there must be some reason for it..."

The old butler's eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

After regaining his senses, Chu Heng asked, "By the way, has there been any movement from the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau)?"

The old steward replied, "Yang Lin, the Imperial Music Bureau's chief minister, recanted his testimony in court and then claimed illness the next day, refusing to leave his residence... Liu Miaozhi and Xu Ling'er have been taken to Yunshui Pavilion, but as for Yu'er, there has been no news from her yet." Chu Heng's eyes darkened, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth. "I've long felt that something was wrong with Yu'er. She's been in contact with Chen Mo for so long, yet she's never provided any valuable information. It seems she thinks she's latched onto a powerful figure and wants to kick me aside?"

"It's not that easy!"

Seeing Chu Heng's ferocious expression, the old butler advised, "Things are tense outside right now, so let's not create any unnecessary trouble and get through this first..."

"Are you trying to teach me how to do things?" Chu Heng rubbed his temples and interrupted impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense and go catch a few sect disciples first. If this drags on, when will my injuries heal?"

"Yes."

The old butler sighed silently, said nothing more, bowed, and withdrew.

Chu Heng was the only one left in the study. He narrowed his eyes and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the armrest.

Chu Heng was very confident in his strength. The reason he was suppressed by Chen Mo that day was mainly because he did not want to reveal his trump card. After all, the Blood Sacrifice Path was an evil technique that could easily cause trouble.

Moreover, he hadn't expected that Chen Mo actually possessed orthodox lightning techniques, completely suppressing him...

"That lightning technique was incredibly powerful, clearly from the orthodox Xuanmen school, and most likely originated from the Tian Shu Pavilion."

"It seems that Ling Ningzhi's relationship with him is indeed extraordinary..."

“Now that I’ve been exposed to His Majesty, I can’t delay any longer. I must obtain the array diagram as soon as possible… I have a feeling that the monk Shiyun knows something, but Wuwang Temple has been silent since the last martial arts test. Otherwise, it might be possible…”

dong dong dong-

Just as Chu Heng was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door, and a maid came in carrying a tray.

"Your Highness, it's time for your medicine."

"This is made according to the recipe given by Mr. Fei..."

Before I could finish speaking, I felt a chill in my chest.

Looking down, she saw that Chu Heng had appeared behind her at some point, and a large, bloody hand had burst out of her chest, clutching a beating heart.

His palms were cracked open, veins throbbing, constantly sucking in blood.

The maid's body withered visibly, her eyes filled with confusion and disbelief. Until the moment of her death, she did not understand what had happened.

thump--

Chu Heng casually tossed the corpse aside.

A few drops of blood splattered on his cheek, making him look quite sinister.

The red light in his left eye intensified, and the gloomy and violent aura between his eyebrows and eyes grew even stronger.

"Waiting..."

"Whether it's Chen Mo or Xu Yuqiong, I will settle accounts with you all slowly!"

……

……

"Redemption?"

In the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau), at the Yunshui Pavilion, Yu'er asked with a surprised expression, "Why did Master suddenly bring this up?"

Chen Mo leaned against Gu Manzhi's soft embrace, while Ye Henshui sat beside him, carefully peeling the grapes and feeding him the pulp... He swallowed the grapes and said:

“I have completely broken ties with Chu Heng. He must have realized that you have ‘betrayed’ him. It may not be safe for you to stay in the Jiaofangsi any longer.”

Yu'er frowned slightly and hesitated before asking, "What about Aunt and the others?"

Chen Mo frankly said, "I can take Liu Miaozhi and Xu Ling'er with me. As for the others, I can't take care of them... But you can rest assured, I will make arrangements in advance, and at least they won't have to live the kind of life they used to live."

Yu'er bit her lip, remained silent for a moment, and then whispered, "But I am, after all, the daughter of a disgraced official, and the Xu family's affairs are very complicated. I'm afraid it will have a negative impact on Master..."

Seeing her anxious and uncertain expression, Chen Mo found it amusing and reached out to pinch her cheek.

"Alright, this isn't something you should be thinking about. Where did that carefree little puppy go?"

"I just didn't want to cause trouble for my owner..."

“You’re my person, so your business is my business too. How can you say it’s causing trouble? If you say that again, I’ll spank you.”

"Master~"

Yu'er's face flushed slightly, her eyes sparkling, and she nestled into Chen Mo's arms, rubbing against him affectionately.

The master is the best master in the world!

At this moment, Gu Manzhi spoke up and asked, "In that case, will we all be staying at the Chen residence? Doesn't that seem a bit inappropriate?"

Ye Henshui didn't say anything, but he also watched him expectantly from the side.

Chen Mo had also considered this issue.

Although the Chen family mansion could accommodate them, they would definitely get scolded by their parents, but they could manage to get by.

The key issue lies with the Empress...

Chen Mo was quite startled when the Imperial Concubine made a sudden visit last time.

If she discovers Gu Manzhi and Ye Henshui's identities, the trouble will be even greater, and they might even lose their lives!

However, if they are placed in an outer residence, how to ensure their safety becomes a problem.

"I can arrange accommodation for you at Tianlin Guard first, and we can make further plans after the storm has passed," Chen Mo said thoughtfully. This was somewhat inconvenient, but it was the best solution for the time being.

"In my opinion, we should let them stay here for now."

At that moment, a slightly hoarse voice rang out.

Chen Mo looked up and saw a woman leaning against the door frame. Her long black and red robe could not hide her plump figure, and her dark purple eyes were staring at him intently.

"Master?"

Gu Manzhi and Ye Henshui hurriedly stood up, "Why are you here?"

Looking at the two of them, Ji Lianxing couldn't help but recall the scene she had witnessed that day, and her cheeks flushed slightly. She cleared her throat and said, "It's nothing, I just happened to be passing by and thought I'd drop by to see you..."

She walked to the table and sat down, crossing her legs, the hem of her skirt outlining her rounded curves. "What, a guest has arrived, and you haven't even served a cup of tea?"

Chen Mo said irritably, "You've come uninvited, and you've got a lot to do. Do you want some tea, Ba Wang Cha Ji?"

He gets annoyed just looking at this woman; if he could beat her, he would have already pinned her to the ground and rubbed her into the ground.

?

Ji Lianxing sensed that this wasn't a nice thing to say, but she didn't think much of it and shook her head, saying, "Forget it, if they don't have them, they don't have them... I heard what you said just now, and I don't recommend that you take them away now."

Chen Mo coldly replied, "What's it to you?"

Ji Lianxing frowned slightly and said, "I know you have a problem with me, but Manzhi and Henshui are also my disciples, so I can't just sit idly by."

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow. "Judging from your tone, it seems like you have a better way?"

Ji Lianxing smiled, her red lips curving upwards, and said, "I can make a deal with you~"
