I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon

This is truly the pinnacle of Heavenly Rank Top Grade magic techniques, containing various powerful abilities. The Gu God Sect's reason for playing along with Ji Lianxing is partly to obtain this secret technique!

And just because of one sentence from him, the Empress gave it all to him?

"Empress, you're so kind to me," Chen Mo remarked.

"Alright, stop being sentimental. I've heard enough of such words,"

Yu Youhan snorted coldly and said, "Refrain from flirting with too many girls; sparing me some worries is better than anything else... Hmm?!"

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Mo directly swept her off her feet.

"What are you doing?" Yu Youhan looked somewhat flustered.

Chen Mo chuckled and said, "This chair is too cramped; I can't stretch out. I'll take you to the room to give a proper massage, Empress."

"Wait, wait!"

...

...

"Auntie is really something, running off alone without waiting for me..."

Lin Jingzhu walked into the Imperial Palace, mumbling quietly.

Thinking back to the scene at the Imperial College, she felt a bit shaken.

As a Martial Artist, she could naturally see the worth in Chen Mo's strike!

That Green Dragon Phenomenon felt almost tangible, exuding pressure like a living creature, evidently showing an understanding of Sword Way that had reached the Transformation Realm!

Even her master, Xue Jushan, known as "the foremost below the Martial Saint," might find it challenging to reach such an understanding of Daoist Charm!

Yet Chen Mo was barely twenty and had just broken into the Fourth-Level Divine Sea Stage as a Transcendent Warrior...

Showing the terrifying extent of his talent!

"No wonder Mr. Chen is incredibly skilled..."

Lin Jingzhu's eyes sparkled as she watched Chen Mo establish his authority before the sect disciples, feeling a sense of pride as well.

"I just haven't had the chance to speak with him yet. He's vanished,"

"Hmm?"

Just as Lin Jingzhu entered Qianqing Gate, she heard a sudden whooshing sound.

Looking up, she saw a black object flying toward her, tracing a graceful arc and landing with a "thud" in front of her, like a planter toppled into the flower bed.

?

Upon closer inspection, Lin Jingzhu felt the figure seemed familiar...

"Mr. Chen?!"

"Lin Catcher, what a coincidence."

Chen Mo climbed out of the flower bed, dusting off the soil from his body.

Lin Jingzhu asked curiously, "Why'd you fly out of the palace directly?"

"Cough, nothing much. I overexerted myself while stretching my body," Chen Mo cleared his throat.

He initially intended to help the Empress with a proper massage, but accidentally pulled out the red silk.

The Empress's overseer outfit was too tight, and when secured, the short skirt snapped...

Chen Mo struggled mightily to untangle the silk, but the disgraced Empress directly kicked him out...

"Overexerted?"

Lin Jingzhu smelled something odd, sniffing closer, "What scent is on you, Mr. Chen? Smells like osmanthus, yet there seem to be no osmanthus trees in the palace, right?"

Chen Mo twitched his lips.

It's undoubtedly from the Empress's perfume...

He didn't answer and changed the subject, "Lin Catcher, have you been feeling better lately?"

Lin Jingzhu nodded, "Thanks to Mr. Chen, I'm pretty much completely fine now."

"That's good then."

Just as Chen Mo was about to leave, Lin Jingzhu clutched his hem, whispering, "Mr. Chen, today you promised to treat me."

"Hmm? Seems about right..."

Checking the days, exactly three days had passed since the last toxin cleansing.

Chen Mo looked around and said, "Not really appropriate here. Should we head out of the palace first?"

"That would waste too much time..."

Lin Jingzhu thought for a moment, then said, "Mr. Chen, follow me."

The two ventured through palace corridors into the Inner Court, past layers of pavilions, arriving at a serene garden.

Seeing the building before him, Chen Mo couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Xuanqing Pool?"

"You mean to cleanse here?"

Lin Jingzhu nodded, "This is a remote place; no palace attendants will disturb us. Besides, after treatment, sweat piles up, unbearably sticky. This place is perfect for washing up..."

"..."

Chen Mo's lips twitched.

You're comfortable, but what about me?

"If it ends up like last time, blocked by Her Majesty the Empress, it'll be real trouble."

Recalling the Flying Dragon Riding Face incident, Lin Jingzhu's cheeks flushed, shaking her head, "Don't worry, Auntie bathes every two days and washed just last night, so she won't come today."

"Are you sure?"

Chen Mo had some doubts.

"Sure, Mr. Chen, don't worry."

Without another word, Lin Jingzhu pulled him into the bath.

...

Steam billowed from the white jade pool; dragon heads on the wall continuously poured living water, forever maintaining a suitable temperature through the array in the pool.

Lin Jingzhu sat cross-legged at the poolside, "Mr. Chen, you can start."

Having synchronised multiple times, familiar with the routine, Chen Mo placed his palm on her Heavenly Pond Acupoint, his Qi-Blood Power steadily infusing within, dispelling the chi from her meridians.

Lin Jingzhu shivered slightly, her body growing soft.

She resisted waves of sensations, shyly gazing at him, lips slightly parted, asking, "Mr. Chen, does what you promised before still count?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, "Lin Catcher meant..."

Lin Jingzhu's cheeks grew increasingly hot, delicate hands clenching unconsciously, softly murmuring, "Mr. Chen said during the next toxin cleansing, I-I can kiss..."

"..."

Chen Mo was amused by her comment.

No wonder she's so eager for toxin cleansing; she wants a kiss?

"Since we've already kissed twice, kissing again shouldn't pose a problem?"
