I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 380 The Empress and the Imperial Concubine are both defeated! Lord Chen's family discipline!
"W-why are you here?"

The empress looked at the woman before her, her expression flustered, and stammered.

"What, did I interrupt your good time?" Yu Youhan narrowed her eyes, her face becoming blurred, as if a layer of mist had dissipated, revealing her incomparably beautiful and cold face.

As expected of the Empress!
Chen Mo felt a chill run down his spine.

Oh no, we've really been caught this time!

"Your Majesty, please let me explain..."

"Shut up."

"..."

Yu Youhan looked at the Empress, her voice icy cold: "This morning you were still talking about fair competition, but you turned around and used such despicable means?"

"You're two-faced, trying to force things into a fait accompli, huh?"

"Jiang Yuchan, you are truly shameless!"

"Am I shameless?"

The Empress, who was initially a little guilty, became angry upon hearing this and gritted her teeth, saying, "This was originally a matter of mutual consent. Chen Mo and I were in love, and it was a natural progression. How can you call it despicable?"

"I'll cook this raw rice right in front of you today, so what?"

???

Chen Mo swallowed hard.

No, please don't add fuel to the fire now!

Yu Youhan's chest heaved, her face was like frost, but her eyes were burning with rage.

"You've got quite the nerve. Go ahead and try!"

"I'm not small anywhere! Fine, give it a try. Do you think I'm easily scared?"

The two were locked in a tense standoff, neither willing to back down, and the air was thick with the smell of gunpowder.

Feeling the temperature gradually rising on her wrist, Yu Youhan tried her best to control her emotions. She knew very well that the Empress was deliberately trying to provoke her.

Based on the previous unusual situations, the other party must have guessed something, otherwise they would have already made their move inside the sedan chair today.

"Damn..."

Yu Youhan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.

Chen Mo's attitude towards the Empress was very special, which made her feel a sense of crisis. If this woman really succeeded in getting her hands on him, coupled with that "edict of self-reproach", she might actually be able to step into the Chen family first!
The thought of the Empress becoming smug and putting on airs as a "first wife" in front of her made her furious.

She absolutely cannot tolerate this happening!
Regardless, let's take them away first!

Thinking of this, Yu Youhan strode forward and grabbed Chen Mo's arm, "Come with me!"

"no!"

The Empress became anxious upon seeing this.

She wrapped her arms around Chen Mo's neck, wrapped her legs around his waist, and held him tightly.

"I traveled all the way from Kyoto to the southern border, and only managed to catch a glimpse of the thief. You think you can just take him away like that? Dream on!"

"You think this will work on me? How naive!"

Yu Youhan didn't intend to waste any more words and directly tried to break through the void to force his way out.

Caught between the two, Chen Mo was in a dilemma. Suddenly, a daring idea flashed through his mind:

This is a hurdle we can't avoid; we'll have to face it sooner or later anyway, so we might as well take this opportunity to speak frankly.

One bowl of raw rice can be cooked into two bowls of cooked rice. That makes perfect sense, right?

As ripples spread through the space and his figure became transparent, Chen Mo had no time to think. He focused his mind on his palm, gripped the illusory red ribbon tightly, and pulled hard—

hum-

As the air trembled, scarlet dust rapidly gathered, forming a red ribbon.

Like a snake, it slithered across Yu Youhan's body, passing under her armpits, across her chest and between her thighs, before suddenly tightening!
"Well!"

Yu Youhan's expression changed, and he let out a muffled groan.

The Dao power that had gathered around him dissipated in an instant, and he fell straight forward, landing right on top of the two people.

The room fell silent, the atmosphere deathly still.

The Empress paused, then muttered to herself, "Just as I thought. The reason you dared not act wasn't because you feared the backlash of the nation's fate, but because of this red ribbon..."

"This thing will suppress your cultivation, and only Chen Mo can undo it, right?"

Yu Youhan gritted her teeth and turned her head away without making a sound.

Seeing this, the Empress became even more certain of her guess. A smile played on her lips as she sat up, crossed her arms, and snorted, "Weren't you quite temperamental just now? Why are you so quiet now?"

Yu Youhan said in a deep voice, "Chen Mo, what are you standing there for? Quickly help me untie this!"

Chen Mo, for the first time ever, shook his head. "I cannot comply."

"What do you mean by this?" Yu Youhan frowned deeply. "Are you trying to betray me?"

Before Chen Mo could speak, the Empress chuckled and said, "That's not quite right. Chen Mo has always been one of my men, so how can you say he's betrayed me?"

Yu Youhan ignored him, her blue eyes fixed on Chen Mo, as if trying to read something from his face.

However, Chen Mo kept his eyes down and refused to meet her gaze.

Yu Youhan's face gradually lost its color, and her eyes were filled with disappointment.

The empress, hands on her hips, said proudly and arrogantly, "You little thief, you promised to help me get revenge. This vixen is powerless to resist now, so why not take action now?"

Last time, Yu Youhan beat her so badly that her buttocks were swollen, and she had to lie on the bed to recover for a long time. This time, she can finally get her revenge!

This wicked woman needs to be taught a lesson!
"Yes."

Chen Mo responded and got up.

Yu Youhan felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She bit her lip hard, almost drawing blood, but she didn't struggle any further and closed her eyes resignedly.

The idea that mountains have no edges and the heavens and earth are joined is nothing but a lie.

"Forget it, I'll just say I misjudged him."

"Since you have made your choice, then after today, our relationship is over..."

Before he could finish speaking, a gasp suddenly came from beside him.

"Eh?"

"What...what are you doing?!"

Yu Youhan looked over upon hearing the sound and saw Chen Mo pull out a silk ribbon from somewhere, press the Empress down on the bed, and bind her tightly with a tortoise shell binding technique, making her heavy, enormous member appear even more imposing.

"Done." Chen Mo clapped his hands.

The Empress's pretty face was full of confusion. "I told you to deal with Consort Yu, why are you tying me up?"

Chen Mo shrugged and said, "A family should always be together."

?

The Empress frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who is she related to? Are you on her side or mine?"

Chen Mo did not answer directly, but instead started brainwashing: "Didn't Your Highness ask me before what conditions are needed to become the first wife of the Chen family? The most important thing is to be tolerant of others."

"The first principle of a wife managing the household is to have a broad mind. If she is petty and calculating, the household will be in chaos. Only by being kind and tolerant can there be peace between superiors and subordinates. This is the way to manage a family."

"The Imperial Concubine did lay a hand on you before, but ultimately, wasn't it you who started the trouble at Hanxiao Palace first?"

"If we were to be so petty, wouldn't we seem too stingy?"

"I……"

The queen was speechless for a moment.

It was indeed she who started the trouble, but that was because Yu Youhan had stayed overnight at the Chen residence the night before!

This kind of thing is inherently a mess; if you investigate it too thoroughly, you'll never be able to distinguish right from wrong...

Seeing that the Empress had calmed down, Chen Mo turned to Yu Youhan and said solemnly, "Her Majesty the Empress and Her Highness are both my precious darlings. If I were to abandon them so easily, wouldn't I become a heartless and ungrateful person?"

"Your Majesty, ask yourself honestly, would you really entrust your future to this kind of man?"

Yu Youhan's throat tightened, unsure how to respond.

If Chen Mozhen abandons the Empress for her, does that mean he will abandon her for someone else someday?

"In other words, even without the Empress, there are still Li Yuan, Zhi Xia, Qing Xuan, Dao Zun... Could it be that Your Majesty intends to exterminate all the girls around me?" Chen Mo pressed his advantage.

Wait a minute...

It seems like something strange has gotten mixed in?

Yu Youhan was preoccupied at the moment and did not notice, and said in a low voice, "When did I say such a thing? If I really minded, I would not have tolerated you for so long... But, but you can't help others bully me."

Chen Mo said seriously, "Your Majesty is my precious darling. I love her so much, how could I bear to bully her?"

Yu Youhan's cheeks flushed. "Then why don't you come with me?"

Chen Mo sighed, "Because running away won't solve anything. You have to realize your mistakes. If we let this go easily this time, we'll face the same situation again next time..."

As he spoke, he flipped his wrist, and a black soft whip appeared out of thin air.

It is about three feet long, with a handle made of ebony. The whip is about the thickness of a thumb, and is entirely black. It is made of flexible tendons twisted together, with a few strands of fine down at the end, giving it a faint glow.

A refreshing fragrance filled the air; inhaling it made blood flow faster and the heart pound.

This is the reward he received after completing the [Heavenly Southern Demon Hunt] event.

[The Seven Emotions Whip: When love arises, it is as gentle as a weeping willow; when love ends, it is as hard as a steel whip. Each lash stirs the deepest emotions within, subjecting the opponent to a powerful mental shock.]

This thing is not aggressive and will not harm the physical body or soul; it can be used to scare people, though.

The Empress and the Imperial Concubine looked at what he was holding, their expressions tightening.

"You little thief, what are you trying to do?!"

"I warn you, you are not allowed to act recklessly!"

Chen Mo weighed the whip in his hand and said with a smile, "I know you two have grievances in your hearts. Don't worry, I'm always fair and impartial and will never favor either side. We'll give each of you one whip until you forgive each other."

"Let's start with Her Majesty the Empress."

"no……"

Before the empress could finish speaking, the whip had already struck her buttocks.

Snapped--

With a soft sound, the Queen's body suddenly stiffened, her swan neck stretched straight, and her breath seemed to stop.

Immediately afterward, she began to tremble violently uncontrollably, her body curling up in a hem. From Chen Mo's perspective, the hem of her skirt clung tightly to her skin, revealing every detail—a truly spectacular sight… “I didn’t even use any force, yet it just…”

Chen Mo was also a little confused.

Was the Empress too incompetent, or was the Seven Emotions Whip too powerful?

The Empress remained in a daze for a long time, so he shifted his gaze to the Imperial Concubine.

Yu Youhan panicked at this moment, her body wriggling backward, while she still threatened, "Chen Mo, if you dare to touch me, I will never speak to you again!"

"We agreed to treat everyone equally, so I can't possibly show favoritism, can I?"

Chen Mo raised his hand and waved it, a black shadow flashing past.

Snapped--

"Well!"

Yu Youhan's pupils suddenly contracted.

The moment the whip struck, I didn't feel pain; instead, an indescribable sensation welled up inside me.

Bound by the red ribbon, she was already extremely sensitive. Now, the two completely different arousal sensations merged together, constantly assaulting her nerves. Her mind went blank for a moment, and her consciousness seemed to be detached from her body.

"..."

Seeing the Empress's face flushed red and her body trembling as if she had been electrocuted, Chen Mo's throat moved.

This Seven Emotions Whip...

This is just too good to use!

……

……

the other side.

After making the necessary arrangements, Chu Yanli left the courtroom and headed towards the inner quarters.

"Chen Mo should have seen the Empress by now, right?"

"I wonder if he will like the 'gift' I prepared?"

A slight smile appeared on her lips.

Then, as if remembering something, his smile faded, he sighed softly, and a hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes.

"In the end, I'm the only outsider..."

Her experiences over the years have made her see through the ugliness of human nature, and her personality has become increasingly withdrawn. If nothing unexpected happens, she will likely live alone until the end of her life.

Until she met Chen Mo.

At first, Chu Yanli only wanted to use him.

After all, possessing the aura of a dragon and mastering the legacy of military strategy, he is a huge variable for the imperial court, and must be firmly held in its grasp.

However, with subsequent contact, this idea gradually wavered.

Especially after Chen Mo helped her suppress the alienation and planted a yard full of flowers, she, who had never experienced family affection, felt a certain inexplicable emotion deep in her heart.

She probably doesn't quite understand what liking someone means, or rather, she doesn't understand what liking someone really means.

But if I had to choose a husband, Chen Mo might not be so bad?

"But what was he really thinking?"

"If you hate me, then don't be so nice to me..."

Chu Yanli came along for two reasons: one was to protect the Empress, and the other was to find out Chen Mo's true intentions.

“I don’t mind if he has other women around him, even if he’s with Chan’er. Besides, with my years of experience, I can help him reach the top step by step.”

"There's no reason to refuse, is there?"

Chu Yanli pondered to herself.

It must be admitted that Chen Mo's abilities are indeed very strong.

Within just two days of arriving in Bailu City, they found the Gu God Sect's headquarters and, following the clues, uncovered the corrupt officials hidden within the prefecture.

As she said before, it would be a waste of talent for such a person not to serve the court…

Lost in her thoughts, she made her way to the inner courtyard.

All that could be seen was Lady Sun sitting on a stone chair, with a burlap sack at her feet, from which a human figure could be vaguely discerned.

"Your Highness, the Eldest Princess." Lady Sun hurriedly rose and bowed.

Chu Yanli asked, "Where is Chan'er? I haven't seen her."

Lady Sun replied, "Her Majesty the Empress is in the inner room, speaking with Lord Chen."

"it is good."

Chu Yanli nodded, pushed open the door, and went inside.

Sun Shanggong's lips moved, she hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak.

Anyway, the eldest princess knew about the relationship between the empress and Chen Mo, so she, as a mere servant, shouldn't meddle.

Chu Yanli walked through the hall and came to the bedroom door. Just as she was about to knock on the door, she heard a "knock knock" sound coming from inside.

?

Chu Yanli realized what was happening, a blush spreading across her cheeks, and she muttered a curse under her breath.

"To start doing this in broad daylight... it's really inappropriate."

He intended to turn and leave, but stopped after taking only a few steps. After a slight hesitation, he returned to the door and pressed his ear against the crack to listen carefully.

Snapped--

"Waaaaah, no, please! I know I was wrong, okay..."

The empress's voice was choked with sobs, and she sounded as if she were in great pain.

Chu Yanli frowned, thinking that Chen Mo had gone too far, but the conversation that followed almost made her jaw drop.

"Alright, Her Majesty the Empress has expressed her opinion. Next, it's the Imperial Concubine's turn."

"You're dreaming! I would never apologize to her!"

Snapped--

"Chen Mo, how dare you!"

Snapped--

"You're dreaming..."

Snapped--

"Well……"

(O_o)??
Chu Yanli's expression froze, her head buzzed, and she stood there stunned as if petrified.

This voice is...

Consort Yu?!

"So, what these two meant by 'each relying on their own abilities' was actually this?"

“This is too much!”

……

……

Maritime Trade Office.

After leaving the government office, Tang Xingbang, like everyone else, returned to his own office to attend to his duties.

He was busy handling official business all morning and did not show any abnormality. It was not until 9:00 AM that he finished reviewing all the documents, then got up, stretched his limbs, and slowly walked towards the inner office with his hands behind his back.

"Lord Tang."

"Greetings, Lord Tang."

Officials passing by greeted him, and Tang Xingbang nodded calmly.

Upon arriving at the depths of the government office, in a secluded courtyard, after confirming that no one was around, I pushed open the door and entered the room.

After closing the door, his expression changed drastically. He quickly went to the bookshelf, pulled out a book from the top shelf, and opened the title page. Inside, he saw that the interior had been hollowed out and contained a string of animal tooth pendants.

The sharp teeth were slightly curved, with twisted runes engraved on them, and seemed to be stained with dark red blood.

Tang Xingbang breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that the items were still there.

After putting away the beast teeth, he went to the bed next to him, lifted the bed board, and took out the package hidden inside.

Just as I was about to leave through the back door, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly came from behind me:

"Where is Lord Tang headed?"

Tang Xingbang's expression was stiff as he slowly turned his head to look.

A young man dressed in a brocade robe, looking like a scholar, leaned against the door, his handsome face full of amusement. "Lord Tang has even prepared gold and silver valuables in advance. It seems he's thinking of running away at any time."

Tang Xingbang's Adam's apple bobbed, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Young master, you jest. My elderly mother is ill at home, and I'm in a hurry to go home to see her..."

The young man forced a smile and said softly, "You know, I hate it when people lie."

Tang Xingbang's clothes were soaked with cold sweat.

Based on his understanding of this person, the brighter the smile, the more dangerous the situation.

"The matter of the Gu God Sect has alarmed the Eldest Princess, and Hua Yinglan has also been targeted. The matter of the barbarian slaves could be exposed at any time."

"With the Princess's strength, we are no match for her. I merely wish to find a way to survive..."

Tang Xingbang said in a low voice.

"You are quite cautious." The young man shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, it's too late. You've been watched ever since you left the government office."

"what?!"

Tang Xingbang was startled.

dong dong dong-

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Lord Tang, are you inside?"
