I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 314 The Empress's Voluntary Service! A Clock Turning in the Opposite Direction!
"died?"

Chen Mo was slightly taken aback.

According to the original storyline, the Demon Lord is likely to be the final boss of the subsequent DLC, and his strength should be comparable to that of the Empress.

Even if you can't defeat them, escaping won't be a problem.

He actually died like that?
"Your Majesty, are you sure you've killed the Demon Lord?" Chen Mo came back to his senses and frowned. "That Demon Lord was extremely skilled at creating clones. Could he have used some kind of fake death to escape?"

Yu Youhan said calmly, "Whether it is an avatar or not, I can still tell. She has been turned into nothingness by the power of the Returning Void Dao, and there is no possibility of her being resurrected."

At this point, she paused slightly, then said thoughtfully, "But upon closer examination, it is indeed a bit strange..."

"That demon lord's strength is much weaker than I imagined. Logically speaking, a powerful being who can refine an entire mountain range and draw upon the power of heaven and earth should not be so easy to kill."

"Moreover, even after her death, the formation continued to operate, protecting the demon race."

"Therefore, I suspect that besides that Demon Lord, there may be another Supreme Being in the Desolate Region... As for why they haven't made a move, I have no idea."

Is there another supreme being?
Chen Mo felt a chill run down his spine.

If there are indeed two Supreme Realm beings among the demon race, it would not be good news for him.

"When Dao Zun fought with the Demon Lord's avatar before, he mentioned a name, Zhu Jiuyou. Could he be the hidden Supreme Being?"

"Zhu Jiuyou?"

Yu Youhan thought for a moment and said, "I have heard of this name before. It was quite a long time ago. It seems to be a figure from the same era as the Dao Master of Tian Shu Pavilion... However, he has long since perished in that era of great strife and turned into the dust of history."

Chen Mo had heard a little about the so-called "era of great contention".

At that time, the land was without a ruler, dragons and snakes rose from the land, and geniuses of Buddhism, Taoism, demons and monsters emerged in great numbers. It was the golden age with the most supreme beings in history, but also the most chaotic and turbulent era.

Based on this, it seems that Zhu Jiuyou must have been the strongest demon from a thousand years ago.

So what is his relationship with Zhu Wujian?
Remembering the hidden event that was triggered earlier—

[The candlelight illuminates the deepest hell, where the Yellow Springs boil at the bottom of the Avici Hell.]

Chen Mo's heart stirred slightly, and he asked, "Does Your Majesty know what kind of demon that Zhu Jiuyou is?"

Yu Youhan pinched her chin and said, "I heard it's supposed to be a dragon?"

"dragon?"

Chen Mo's eyebrows twitched. "There really is such a thing?"

The creature he had ever seen that came closest to a dragon was the blood dragon he encountered in Linglan County.

But that's only a resemblance; it's a mutation that occurred after the black python devoured the dragon's energy, not a real dragon.

The book "Records of Strange Things in the Nine Provinces" mentions that "a snake becomes a dragon after five hundred years, and a dragon transforms into a dragon after a thousand years." However, whether such a creature actually exists is still unverifiable, and we can only find fragments of information in unofficial historical records and legends.

"What about Zhu Wujian? What is its true form?" Chen Mo asked again.

“Zhu Wujian? You mean that demon lord?” Yu Youhan said, “This is another thing that I find strange… Although the demonic energy in her body is extremely strong, her physical form is not complete, and she seems to be a human-demon hybrid.”

?

Chen Mo frowned even more deeply.

There is a very small chance that offspring will be born when demons and humans interbreed. They will look almost identical to humans, but will retain some characteristics of demons, and are generally called "other people".

Such extraordinary individuals are ostracized by both humans and demons, forced to eke out a living in the cracks, and their situation is extremely miserable.

The demon race, in particular, places great importance on the purity of their bloodline because their power originates from their bloodline. They would never regard a demon as the master who rules over all demons.

All the demons they had encountered before, whenever the word "Lord" was mentioned, displayed a genuine and heartfelt worship and awe that was absolutely not feigned.

“This demon lord is indeed a bit strange…” Yu Youhan said in a deep voice, “It’s alright. At worst, I will go to the Desolate Region again after a while and wipe out all the demon races to completely eliminate any future troubles.”

Chen Mo snapped out of his daze and shook his head, saying, "Your Majesty has done enough. Leave the rest to me."

When manpower is limited.

Even for someone as powerful as the Empress, it would be no easy task to fight against the entire demon race on her own.

Although she appeared nonchalant and didn't mention the dangers involved, it was true that she almost got lost in the void... This time, she was awakened by chance, but would she be so lucky next time?
"I know what you're worried about. It was just a mistake. I won't make the same mistake again..."

Before Yu Youhan could finish speaking, Chen Mo interrupted her. He looked into her blue eyes and said earnestly, "It doesn't matter whether the Demon Lord lives or dies, but I want Your Highness to live well. Promise me that no matter what, you will never put yourself in danger again, okay?"

Live well?

Yu Youhan was taken aback.

She had said this to Chen Mo before.

At that time, she was only worried that she would not be able to get rid of the shackles of her inner demons. Although she is still bound by the red ribbon, she does not care about this matter as much now.

If that inner demon is him...

What's the harm in being bound for life?
"Alright, I agree." Yu Youhan nodded seriously.

Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "This humble servant is now at the third-grade Divine Harmony Realm, and can now help Your Majesty with some of her worries."

Yu Youhan pursed her lips, her eyes somewhat unfocused.

This person's progress was indeed astonishingly fast. In just half a year, he made rapid progress, rising from the sixth rank to the third rank.

Based on this, it shouldn't be long before I reach the first rank...

Then shouldn't the matter of dual cultivation also be put on the agenda?
Thinking of this, my heart started racing, almost as if it would jump out of my chest.

While she was lost in thought, Chen Mo's hands had already silently climbed up her smooth calves—

"Ok?"

Yu Youhan trembled slightly, quickly grabbing his hand and saying in embarrassment and annoyance, "Where are you touching?"

Chen Mo said innocently, "This humble servant only wanted to give Your Majesty a massage."

Yu Youhan spat, "Do you think I don't know what you're up to?"

Although she said that, she didn't push Chen Mo away. After hesitating for a moment, she rolled over and lay face down on the bed, humming softly, "If you want to massage, then massage like this. Remember, don't touch the places you shouldn't touch..."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I am a well-known honest man."

Chen Mo reached out and lifted her skirt, revealing a pair of long, straight legs as straight as jade chopsticks.

Then he took out a glass bottle from his storage ring, poured out some ointment into his palm, rubbed his hands together to warm them, and a rich floral fragrance filled the air.

"What is this?" Yu Youhan asked curiously, smelling the aroma.

"This is a special medicinal oil made by me. It is made with almond oil as a base and dozens of medicinal herbs such as angelica, chuanxiong, cinnamon twig, and rose."

Chen Mo spoke with great familiarity, pressing his palm against his leg, causing the taut skin to sink slightly, forming shallow indentations under the pressure of his fingertips. He continued, "It not only relieves fatigue and nourishes the skin, but also provides some lubrication."

"What are you studying all day long...?"

Yu Youhan's face was flushed, and she bit her lip with her pearly teeth.

Whether it was the effect of the medicated oil or not, the texture became exceptionally delicate, and she could clearly feel the pressure and temperature coming from her fingertips. The intense tingling sensation made her want to hum aloud.

Chen Mo proceeded step by step, his movements gentle yet forceful.

She even used a trace of the power of a strange fire to allow the medicinal effects to penetrate the skin's surface through heat, causing her fair and plump legs to turn a faint rose-red.

Feeling the large hands gradually moving upwards, Yu Youhan became somewhat nervous, her ears burning hot. To distract herself, she asked, "Did you encounter any unexpected events when you went to the temple this time?"

"There was a little incident..."

Chen Mo recounted the entire incident to the Empress in great detail. Although Yu Youhan was in the desolate region, she had some understanding of what had happened in the capital. Upon hearing that the Crown Prince was shrouded in malevolent energy on the altar, her brows furrowed. "So, it seems that the civilians and imperial guards who died in the explosion were the sacrifices, their purpose being to help the Crown Prince wash away the curse?"

While massaging the area, Chen Mo said, "I thought so too before, but something just didn't feel right... After going to such lengths, it all turned out to be a letdown. Having come this far, are we really going to give up so easily?"

Speaking of this, he recalled the judgment on that title.

Both the auspicious signs of "the Purple Star shining down" and "the palace burning in flames" have come true, but what exactly does "historical scrolls are filled with withered bones" mean?
Judging from what has happened before, this statement is by no means unfounded; it is most likely a foreshadowing of something.

"No matter what, this matter is inextricably linked to Wu Lie." Yu Youhan's eyes narrowed slightly as she coldly said, "No wonder Chu Chuyanli attacked Qianji Palace as soon as she returned from the ancestral temple..."

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. "What did you say? The Eldest Princess has attacked Qianji Palace?"

“That’s right.” Yu Youhan nodded. “According to Qingyi, she slashed the emperor’s bedchamber with her sword in front of thousands of imperial guards, and then fought a fierce battle with another mysterious expert for several hours…”

"In the end, it was Eunuch Jin who stepped in and mediated between the two."

"Such an action is almost tantamount to treason, yet Wu Lie has not responded at all. He must be feeling guilty."

Only then did Chen Mo realize what was happening.

No wonder Chu Yanli suddenly fainted...

First, he killed a Grandmaster-level demon in the temple, then withstood the pressure of the Nine Dragon Platform to save the Crown Prince, and then returned to the palace to fight a powerful being... When the two met, he was still wearing his armor, obviously he had been searching for him.

Two days and one night without sleep, coupled with the high-intensity use of dragon energy, led to such severe overexertion, causing the situation to worsen further.

Thinking of Chu Yanli's miserable appearance covered in blood, Chen Mo's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

This woman doesn't seem to care about her body at all...

"By the way, you were with Ji Hongxiu last night, weren't you?" Yu Youhan suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Did she do anything you shouldn't have?"

?

Chen Mo's expression stiffened slightly, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Things that shouldn't be done? Your Majesty means..."

"You know perfectly well what I'm asking." Yu Youhan turned her head and glared at him, saying, "I see right through her little schemes. She dares to act recklessly in front of me, so how could she be well-behaved in private?"

Chen Mo cleared his throat and said, "Actually, I didn't do anything. I just helped her suppress the cost, and incidentally... cough cough, incidentally entered the Dao."

"Is that all?" Yu Youhan asked with some doubt.

"Of course, does Your Majesty not trust my character?" Chen Mo said seriously.

"The one I trust the least is you..."

Yu Youhan muttered to herself, then suddenly her body trembled violently, and she stammered, "What...what are you doing?!"

"Of course, it's a massage." Chen Mo's fingers slipped under the thin fabric. "Is Your Majesty satisfied with my technique?"

Yu Youhan's eyes welled up with tears, her slender hands gripped the bedsheets tightly, and she said in a trembling voice, "You dog servant, I just said, you're not allowed to do anything reckless... You have to wait until you reach the first rank..."

Chen Mo understood, of course, that even if he could break through the defenses with his current level of cultivation, he would not be able to withstand the Empress's power.

So I'm not in a rush for this kind of thing.

However, we can "unlock" some other content first...

"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion..."

He leaned close to Yu Youhan's ear and whispered something.

?

Yu Youhan pondered for a moment before realizing what was happening. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she exclaimed, "How could you have such an absurd idea? How could that be possible?!"

Although her body was pure and unblemished...

But this is just too absurd!
No wonder this guy used medicated oil; he was definitely up to no good!
Chen Mo's lips twitched slightly as he said, "This way, it won't cause fluctuations in Dao power, and we can practice dual cultivation ahead of time. It's a win-win solution, isn't it?"

"What's so beautiful about it?!" Yu Youhan gritted her teeth. "Besides, who wants to practice with you beforehand... If you dare to have such an idea again, I'll chop you up!"

Chen Mo shrank back and said with an embarrassed smile, "Your Majesty, please don't get agitated. I was just saying that."

"Humph!"

Yu Youhan gave a cold snort.

Knowing this guy as she did, if she gave him even the slightest hint, he'd take advantage of the situation and be capable of anything...

However, seeing Chen Mo's embarrassed appearance, she felt a little sorry for him. After hesitating for a moment, she asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable."

"to be honest."

"A little……"

"..."

Yu Youhan sat up and said, "Go lie down over there."

"Oh."

Chen Mo obediently lay down on the bed.

Yu Youhan took out a purple silk ribbon and tied up her loose black hair. Then she picked up a glass bottle and poured some medicinal oil into her palm.

Seeing this, Chen Mo asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you...?"

Yu Youhan's cheeks flushed slightly as she said softly, "You always massage me, so this time I'll massage you too..."

Having said that, he slowly bent down.

?

Chen Mo looked somewhat bewildered.

He used to be the technician, but he never expected that the empress would take the initiative to "attend the service"?
"Hiss... Mother, Your Majesty?!"

"Don't move..."

……

……

Northern frontier, a desolate wasteland.

Light gray clouds hung in the sky, the light was dim, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur.

The once seemingly endless red mountain range was severed in the middle, turning everything within a radius of a thousand miles into nothingness, like a red dragon cut in two.

A burly man, as imposing as an iron tower, stood atop the mountain peak. His crimson pupils, etched with the character "乙" (Yi), gazed down at the scene below with an extremely solemn expression.

"Suppressing an entire clan with his own power..."

"Is there really anyone who can be that strong?"

Ripples appeared in the air around him, revealing a semi-transparent, blurry figure. A voice drifted into his ears: "How is the master?"

"This is not good." The burly man said in a deep voice, "All the clones have been destroyed, and the main body's consciousness has been annihilated. This resurrection has completely failed. I guess we'll have to ask that one to take action again..."

"Ugh……"

A long sigh echoed in the air.
