I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon

"And then?" Chen Mo asked.

"And then, in the blink of an eye, that auntie disappeared. I asked Zhuzi, and he said he didn't see any small boat at all," the little boy said.

Chen Mo's eyebrows slightly raised, "Do you remember what that person looked like?"

The little boy shook his head in confusion, "I don't remember."

Chen Mo pondered silently.

Could it really be the work of the Demon Clan?

But going through so much trouble to target these ordinary people, what could be the purpose?

"No matter what, first let's preserve their lives."

Chen Mo looked up at Qin Yi and said, "Treating them one by one is too inefficient. Brother Qin, could you please gather all the patients together."

"Alright."

Qin Yi responded and led a few people quickly out of the medical hall.

...

About one incense stick later.

Dozens of patients gathered in front of Jisheng Hall, young and old, with many on the brink of death, barely clinging to life.

"Young Hero, you said there's someone who can save our lives, is it true?"

"My father can't hold on much longer, if this continues, I'm afraid he won't make it through the night..."

"Boo hoo hoo, who can save my husband..."

Originally, they escaped from the hands of the Demon Clan with a sense of being spared, surviving a disaster.

But shortly after, their conditions suddenly worsened, and they had no means to stop the life ebbing away, heading towards death step by step.

This powerlessness and fear pushed their spirits to the brink of collapse.

Seeing these people's anxious and fearful expressions, Xu Man comforted them, saying: "Don't worry, with Mr. Chen here, everything will be fine soon... He will surely cure you."

At this moment, Chen Mo walked out of the medical hall.

Glancing around, he confirmed they were indeed the survivors from that day.

Without wasting words, the Golden Branch in his Dantian gently swayed, releasing an immense Essence.

Dozens of emerald green rays of light continuously shot from his fingertips, penetrating into the patients' foreheads, their withered skin instantly plumping up, and their sickly aura was wiped clean, as if vitality filled them in an instant!

"I'm better?!"

"Dad, are you okay?!"

"My waist doesn't hurt, my chest isn't tight... I feel like I could carry three sacks of rice, feeling even better than before!"

Everyone was full of amazement.

Members of the Kuixing Sect looked at each other.

"Brother Qin, if I remember correctly, Mr. Chen should be a Martial Cultivator, right? Is this really something a Martial Cultivator can do?" Xu Man whispered.

Qin Yi's throat was a bit dry, and he shook his head, saying, "I don't know either..."

At this time, someone recognized Chen Mo and shouted:

"It's Mr. Chen!"

"Once again, Mr. Chen saved us!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted and swarmed forward.

"It's really Mr. Chen!"

"Boo hoo hoo, we can never repay Mr. Chen's kindness!"

"Mr. Chen's grace is immeasurable, brighter than the sun!"

The crowd knelt in gratitude, covering the ground in a dense black mass.

Twice facing life and death crises, it was Mr. Chen who saved them! Such gratitude is as high as mountains and deep as the sea! They were moved to tears, engraving it in their bones, never daring to forget!

Meanwhile, Chen Mo clearly felt that the Dragon Qi within him grew stronger again!

Even his control had slightly improved!

"Last time, when saving them from the Blood Flood Dragon, I also felt something similar... What is the reason behind this?"

Chen Mo pondered deeply.

Could this frenzy resembling faith actually be nourishing for the Dragon Qi?

After the crowd calmed down, Chen Mo inquired one by one, finding that without exception, they all had experiences similar to the child.

Within these few days, they all saw or dreamt of a mysterious woman beckoning them, soon falling sick afterwards.

The location was near the riverbank where the incident happened last time.

Ling Ningzhi frowned and said, "Could it be that after their last failure, the Demon Clan is trying to make a comeback?"

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "The Demon Clan would never act without a reason... Last time they captured these people to refine Dragon Qi, now that the Dragon Qi has dissipated, there's no reason to target these ordinary people again."

"Unless..."

"Unless what?" Ling Ningzhi asked.

Chen Mo smirked slightly and said, "Unless this time, they are after me."

The case in Linglan County was initially cracked by him, and now that trouble has come again, it naturally falls on him to handle it once more.

The opponent seems to be trying to lure him out this way?

"No matter what, let's go see."

Chen Mo took out a Jade Scroll from his bosom, infused it with True Yuan, and characters faintly emerged on its surface.

Then he stored away the Spirit Jade and flew towards the city outskirts.

Ling Ningzhi and Qin Yi, among others, quickly followed him.

Arriving at the Canglan River, the water surged ferociously, roaring waves stirred up mist, permeating the air freely.

Standing by the river, Chen Mo focused his senses and faintly detected a trace of energy.

However, the current was so rapid that it was almost imperceptible.

"Trying to lure me into the water?"

Chen Mo's wrist flicked, and the Broken Jade Blade fell into his palm. He silently gathered his power and after a moment, unleashed a blazing blade light with an upward slash!

Boom!

The river surface immediately surged with a thousand layers of waves!

Under everyone's shocked gaze, the river was abruptly sliced apart, revealing the muddy riverbed clearly!

One blade to sever the river!

Chen Mo's eyes shone with golden purple brilliance, everything in his sight slowed down at once, water droplets seemed suspended in the air, and clearly within the riverbed's gravel, a faint light flickered.

True Yuan surged forth, drawing the object towards him.

It was a silk pouch, unscathed by water.

Opening it, he found a tuft of white hair inside, faintly carrying traces of demon energy.

"Is this..."

"Ye Henshui's hair?!
