I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 422 The Empress Battles the Daoist! Chen Mo Wins on Both Sides!

Both men were hit where it hurt, and they glared at each other, instantly creating a tense atmosphere.

Yu Youhan's eyes were filled with a deep blue light, and her voice was low, "I have already been lenient with you enough. Are you challenging my bottom line?"

"How can you challenge something that doesn't exist?" Ji Hongxiu sneered. "Stop trying to fool me. If you could fight, you would have done it already. Why would you have waited until now?"

She had seen that red ribbon more than once before.

Initially, on the flying boat, in front of Ling Ningzhi, Yu Youhan was directly tied up like a rice dumpling.

The second time was at the Chen residence, where the two of them were tied together, and it was only through Chen Mo's intervention that they were freed.

This time is the same...

Yu Youhan had just begun to kill when he was immediately subdued.

Although it's unclear what exactly that thing is that can suppress a Supreme Being, one thing is certain: Yu Youhan cannot act rashly against any woman related to Chen Mo, or he will lose all his cultivation and become a fish on a chopping board!

"No wonder this woman values ​​Chen Mo so much, guarding him so closely, afraid he'll be kidnapped... because her life is in his hands!"

After figuring this out, Ji Hongxiu felt much better.

Despite being forced to surrender their divine soul essence, the other party wasn't much better off.

Besides, she and Chen Mo have long since become inseparable, so what difference would it make if she gave him her weakness?

On the contrary, with Chen Mo helping her suppress the cost, she can improve her cultivation without any worries, comprehend the origin, and one day catch up with this female demon and crush her under her feet!
"Using sect disciples to threaten me? Fine, you just wait!"

"Who will end up being whose dog in the end is still uncertain!"

Ji Hongxiu sneered inwardly.

Yu Youhan remained silent for a long while, then nodded and said, "You're right. With the red ribbon restricting me, I really can't kill you, not even through someone else..."

"I knew it……"

Ji Hongxiu's lips curled up, about to say something, but then she saw a dangerous glint flash in Yu Youhan's eyes, and he said calmly, "So, as long as I don't have any murderous intent, isn't that enough?"

"Ok?"

Ji Hongxiu was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"

"I've always been stuck in a dead end, always trying to eliminate the problem completely, which is why I always end up failing."

"From another perspective, since this red ribbon knows what I'm thinking, then we can actually use that to our advantage—"

Yu Youhan's eyes were filled with a cold light, and a faint blue shadow appeared behind her. "As long as I firmly believe that I am sparring with you and helping you improve your cultivation, then even if I beat you half to death, it probably won't trigger the Red Silk."

"Shall we...spar?"

Ji Hongxiu's expression froze, realizing what was happening.

Yu Youhan carefully sensed the area and, confirming there was no reaction on her wrist, a fierce smile appeared on her rosy lips.

"This method really works. It seems that deceiving yourself isn't so hard after all."

"You really enjoy cheating on your husbands, don't you? Then as the lady of the house, it's my duty to teach you what family discipline is!"

? !
A strong sense of crisis welled up in Ji Hongxiu's heart.

He immediately reached into the void and drew out the golden Zhan Yuan Sword.

The next moment, the void behind Yu Youhan suddenly shattered, and in that chaotic void, an endless blue tide surged forth, crashing towards her like a tidal wave!
boom--

The entire Tianlan Mountain was shaking, and the primordial energy within a hundred miles was boiling like water!

"It is the mistress's duty to discipline her concubines in order to uphold the family's morals and maintain its integrity, so it is only natural for me to teach you a lesson!"

"What mistress? Who's the concubine? What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Don't understand? Then let me put it another way... I'm telling you to be a dog, so you have to wag your tail obediently. If you dare to bare your teeth, I'll break your legs!"

"Jade Cold!"

"..."

Chen Mo looked up blankly.

The entire sky has been divided in two: on the left, a vast expanse of blue tides, and on the right, a deluge of red dust!
The two sides are locked in a fierce struggle, and the void between them is being squeezed and distorted, like a huge, torn canvas!

However, the battle was only deadlocked for a moment before Qingchao gained the upper hand and advanced to the right with an irresistible sense of pressure. All matter that came into contact with the blue particles evaporated into thin air, including Ji Hongxiu's causal power!
"Reversing cause and effect!"

Just as the sky was about to be swallowed by the blue, Ji Hongxiu's clear and cold voice rang out, and the situation was instantly reversed!

As if time had reversed, the two sides returned to the very beginning!
"It's a waste of your energy. Even if you did it ten thousand more times, you still wouldn't be a match for me."

Yu Youhan's figure suddenly appeared, hovering in the air, her skirt fluttering in the wind.

She slowly raised her hand, and from the boundless blue tide behind her, a colossal shadow emerged, radiating a terrifying pressure that could destroy everything.

"Watch closely, this is how the rules are used."

As the fair hand descended, a shadow flashed by, and the sky was cleaved open in the next instant!

A huge and ugly scar stretches across the sky, and through the dark crack, one can vaguely see the vast universe and galaxies!

hum-

A powerful suction force emanated from the crack, swallowing up everything in sight: clouds, light, Dao power...

The earth trembled violently. Apart from the mountain peak beneath Chen Mo's feet, which remained unmoved, the entire mountain range within a hundred miles rose from the ground and slowly ascended into the air, flying towards the rift!

"This is the power of a top-tier supreme being?!"

Chen Mo's throat felt a little dry, and he swallowed hard.

This was the first time I had ever seen the Empress get serious, and I was deeply shocked.

With his current strength, he believed he could rank among the grandmasters, and even a first-grade master might be able to put up a fight. But the Empress had clearly reached another level, completely beyond his comprehension!
Yu Youhan was also a little tipsy at this moment.

Just as he was about to teach Ji Hongxiu a lesson she would never forget, a burning sensation suddenly came from his wrist.

It seems that this level of conflict has exceeded the scope of "sparring" in Hongling's judgment. If it continues, they may very well be tied up like dumplings again.

"Hmph, you're lucky."

"Then I'll return it to you."

She raised her hand and pressed down, the suction force turned into a repulsive force, and the matter that had just been swallowed gushed out!
Ji Hongxiu's expression changed slightly. She formed a Dao seal with her hands, and the Zhan Yuan Sword spun rapidly around her, transforming into a golden light wall that blocked the surging Dao power!
Boom boom boom——

The wall of light flickers unpredictably and could be breached at any moment!

Ji Hongxiu naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for her death. Her primordial energy surged, forming four illusory arms. While maintaining a defensive posture, she quickly manipulated thunder magic.

In an instant, the sky was covered by dark clouds, which loomed over the two of them.

A deep vortex then appeared, with deep purple lightning flashing at its center!
"Five thunder rectification——"

"Zhu Xie!"

The air froze, the sky darkened, leaving only that dazzling brilliance.

A bolt of tribulation lightning, reaching the heavens and piercing the earth, traversed space and struck Yu Youhan precisely!

Bathed in lightning, Yu Youhan's hair crackled with electricity, yet her expression remained calm as she shook her head and said, "That's it? You truly disappoint me..."

The sky full of azure particles transformed into a giant hand, which directly grabbed the Thunder Serpent and hurled it towards Ji Hongxiu like a javelin!

click-

The lightning pierced the wall of light, and cracks spread outwards.

Then, to Ji Hongxiu's horrified gaze, it shattered with a crash! ...

……

Half an hour later, everything returned to calm.

The mountain peaks that had risen abruptly from the ground returned to their original positions, the sky was clear and cloudless, as if nothing had ever happened.

Two figures appeared out of thin air and stood in the courtyard.

Yu Youhan remained with her hands behind her back, calm and composed, her plain white dress spotless.

In contrast, Ji Hongxiu's breathing was slightly rapid, and the hem of her Taoist robe was charred black, a mark from being struck by lightning earlier.

"I could have pierced through your body, but unfortunately, I couldn't suppress my killing intent and almost activated the Red Silk." Yu Youhan sighed.

"Stop being so smug!" Ji Hongxiu gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "If my soul hadn't been still recovering from its damage, I would never have let you get away with this!"

"It seems you're still not convinced..." Yu Youhan raised her eyebrows and said, "Only the weak make excuses for failure. How about I give you another chance?"

"Come on then, do you think I'm afraid of you?" Ji Hongxiu didn't say a word and immediately started using lightning magic.

Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Chen Mo became anxious and wanted to step forward to stop them, but the turbulent flow of Qi between them made it impossible for him to move an inch and get close at all.

"If this continues, something really bad is going to happen."

"There's really no other way, this is the only option!"

Chen Mo made a firm decision, activated his soul power, and slammed it hard against the peach tree in his spiritual platform!
"Hmm~"

Ji Hongxiu was struck dumb, letting out a muffled groan.

She was already out of breath, and this blow made her legs go weak and her body sway precariously.

Chen Mo stepped forward and reached out to embrace her slender waist.

Upon seeing this, Yu Youhan's expression turned cold, but before she could speak, the red ribbon, like a snake, silently wrapped around her waist—

"Come here you go!"

Chen Mo pulled hard, drawing him into his arms as well.

He held the Daoist master in his left arm and the goddess in his right, took a deep breath, and said, "So, can you two listen to me now?"

"You...you release me!"

Seeing that the Empress was still struggling, Chen Mo slid his hand down and squeezed the full moon's arc hard.

"obedient!"

"Well!"

Yu Youhan's pupils contracted, and her cheeks instantly burned.

This lackey, doesn't he know the place? How dare he make liberties with Ji Hongxiu in front of her?!
It’s really killing me!
On the other side, Chen Mo wasn't idle either. Taking advantage of Hong Ling's temporary suppression of her cultivation, he leaned close to Dao Zun's ear and whispered, "Actually, what Your Majesty said isn't wrong. You were originally my little puppy, otherwise why would you keep calling me 'master' last night?"

???

Upon hearing this, Ji Hongxiu blushed, turned her head away, and spat out, "Wasn't it all because of you! Forget about this kind of thing!"

Last night, the master and disciple went together. Ling Ningzhi couldn't bear the whipping and cried out for her master to spare her life. She was also a little confused and infatuated. Under Chen Mo's coercion and enticement, she also cried out a couple of times...

Thinking about it now makes me feel extremely ashamed...

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, Chen Mo decided to stop while he was ahead, releasing the two and saying, "Since it has already happened, it's hard to tell who's right and who's wrong. Besides, neither of you can do anything to the other, so why continue fighting?"

"Humph!"

Yu Youhan stood up, straightened her clothes, glared at Chen Mo with her phoenix eyes, but said nothing more.

Ji Hongxiu felt a little guilty, but after calming down, she didn't dwell on it. She cleared her throat and said, "Speaking of which, you drained the sword intent that Martial Saint Mountain has accumulated for thousands of years. This is no small matter."

"Although I have managed to fool him for now, once Huo Wuyai realizes what's going on, he will definitely come to demand an explanation."

Chen Mo naturally understood this principle as well.

There is no such thing as a free lunch. The ultimate sword intent is so precious, how could it possibly be given to an outsider for nothing?
If we don't pay some price, it's unlikely that things will end well.

Yu Youhan already knew the whole story and said coldly, "Because of his own negligence, he almost killed someone. I didn't even go to settle accounts with him. How dare he come to ask for an explanation?"

"That makes sense, but..."

Before Ji Hongxiu could finish speaking, Yu Youhan waved her hand and said, "I will go with you later. If you have anything to say, let Huo Wuyai say it to me in person!"

"Your Highness is going too?" Chen Mo was taken aback. "But you are, after all, an Imperial Noble Consort. It seems inappropriate for you to suddenly appear at Martial Saint Mountain."

"My legs are my own, what's wrong with that?" Yu Youhan sized up the two of them and said, "Besides, I need to keep a close eye on you to prevent you from doing anything reckless again. That Ling Ningzhi is no pushover either; who knows if she and her master will team up..."

"..."

Chen Mo and Ji Hongxiu exchanged a glance, then looked away in slight panic.

As expected of the Empress, she has an excellent eye for people...

……

……

Wusheng Mountain, Lingxiao Peak.

Inside the main hall, Shen Zhixia paced anxiously back and forth.

Huo Wuyai sat in the chair, rubbed his temples, and said helplessly, "Zhixia, can you take a break? It's been two hours, and I'm getting dizzy from all the shaking."

"Master, do you think Brother Chen Mo will be alright?" Shen Zhixia asked worriedly. "That Sword Cleansing Pool is no joke. Even a peak master couldn't withstand it, and my brother is only a third-grade cultivator after all..."

Ling Ningzhi, standing to the side, looked a little pale, her slender hands clenching tightly.

Huo Wuyai said with a smile, "Don't worry, judging from the aura Chen Mo has shown, the level of laws he has comprehended is no weaker than the Supreme Sword Intent. There should be no danger. On the contrary, this is quite an opportunity for him."

He didn't realize what had happened until the two people left.

Given Ji Hongxiu's temper, if something really went wrong, she would have blown up the temple long ago. How could she have disappeared after only uttering a few harsh words?
"Miss Ling, have you made contact with your master?" Huo Wuyai asked Ling Ningzhi.

Ling Ningzhi shook her head and said, "I have already sent a message to the sect, but I have not received a reply yet."

"really."

Hearing this, Huo Wuyai became even more certain of his guess.

He wasn't trying to make things difficult for Chen Mo, after all, he was the one who came up with the idea in the first place, so he should bear any losses himself.

But since we've taken the inheritance from Martial Saint Mountain, we have to give something in return... This is a good opportunity to have Chen Mo become our disciple. It's reasonable and justifiable, and even the imperial court can't find any fault with it.

"Although we lost a thousand years of accumulated knowledge, we gained a genius that is rare even once in a millennium..."

"In a way, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise."

"However, I'll have to act a bit more assertive later, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to intimidate that kid."

dong dong dong-

Just as Huo Wuyai was pondering this, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Chai Haochuan's voice came from outside:
"Sect Master, Dao Zun and the others have returned and are currently outside the mountain gate."

"Master is back?" Ling Ningzhi suddenly stood up. "Where is Lord Chen?"

"Brother!" Without saying a word, Shen Zhixia leaped out of the hall.

Huo Wuyai stroked his beard, a smile playing on his lips. "Good, you've come back just in time! Haochuan, go and summon all the elders from each peak. I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
