I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon-Chapter 146 - 99 Rebellious Disciple Little Tiger! Master Duan Shui Chen Mo! (6K)_3

Chapter 146: Chapter 99 Rebellious Disciple Little Tiger! Master Duan Shui Chen Mo! (6K)_3

The scholarly gentleman was taken aback by the words, "You mean the Princely Heir..."

Lv Bojun shook his head and replied, "I can’t be sure, but it’s clear he wants to use this old man as a tool."

"Your Highness invited Chen Mo to dine at the palace twice. His attitude was obvious enough... This young man carries a great influence. Whoever crosses him is doomed, yet some fools can’t see it and dare to cause him trouble."

"As for Chu Heng..."

"Haha, he thought he was the fisherman, unaware he’s just a big fish about to take the bait."

"At such times, it’s best to stay away to avoid getting into trouble."

Lv Bojun reeled in his line and stood up.

He noticed the fishhook was bare, not even having bait attached.

"The world is the pond, and the people are the fish. Only a few have the right to fish in these waters."

"Now, the court is fraught with undercurrents. If we wish for a peaceful end, we must adapt with the tides. If we get confused by the waves and bite the bait, we will be like fish on a chopping block, at the mercy of others."

"The Xu Family and the Zhou Family are precedents we should learn from."

The scholarly gentleman took the fishing rod, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"I had hoped to bask in the sun, but instead, my mood has been disturbed. I’m leaving."

Lv Bojun hunched over and walked away with his hands behind his back.

The scholarly gentleman held the fishing rod and silently followed behind.

The two blended into the bustling crowd, like fish entering water, causing not even a ripple.

...

...

...

"Sir, are we done yet? My legs are weak... Why are you holding me up?"

"Good Yuan’er, open your eyes and see."

"No, don’t, I don’t want to look in the mirror; it’s so embarrassing, ahhhh o(*////▽////*)q~"

An hour later.

Chen Mo emerged from the inner chamber, feeling refreshed.

Meanwhile, Li Yuan was still inside, wiping away the "正" character from her body.

Ever since Chen Mo had passed on the "Dong Xuanzi Yin Yang Thirty-Six Skills" to Li Yuan, her endurance had significantly increased, allowing her to last several more rounds.

Under the empowerment of this secret technique, coupled with Chen Mo’s deliberate nurturing, Li Yuan’s cultivation had advanced rapidly, nearing the threshold of the fifth grade! freeωebnovēl.c૦m

This made her ecstatic in her practice, and she no longer resisted such absurdity as much...

After all, Chen Mo had already set up an Isolation Array, so there was no worry about being discovered.

A moment later, Li Yuan came out.

Her steps were a bit unsteady, and her fair cheeks still blushed with a lingering hue.

"Yuan’er, are you alright?" Chen Mo asked with concern.

"Not good at all!"

Li Yuan glared at Chen Mo, both embarrassed and annoyed.

This rogue always spoke so nicely, but every time, he applied force like grinding medicine, almost to the point of killing her!

"Aren’t you the best patron of the Imperial Music Bureau? Hurry and find Yu’er, I really can’t handle you..."

Smack—

Ripples spread across her bottom.

Li Yuan, who hadn’t fully recovered from the previous sensations, shivered when she was slapped, nearly letting out a sound.

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, saying, "Rebellious disciple, is this how you treat your benefactor?"

Li Yuan’s cheeks flushed hotter, her eyes dazed, as she stammered, "Master, this disciple realizes her mistake~"

"..."

Seeing her exasperating look, Chen Mo almost lost his patience.

Thump, thump, thump.

At this moment, a knock on the door was heard.

A Colonel entered, cupped his hands, and said, "Mr. Chen, someone is here to see you. They claim to be a Tributor from the Demon Suppression Department."

"Oh?"

Chen Mo’s eyes brightened, "It seems my custom equipment is ready. Please invite them in!"

"Yes."

The Colonel left.

A moment later, a figure in a cyan robe entered.

It was not Li Siya who had come, but the fourth-rank Tributor, Huang Haoran, who had guided him that day.

"Mr. Chen."

Huang Haoran cupped his hands in greeting.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Please sit, Yuan’er, prepare the tea."

"Yes."

Being addressed so intimately in front of others, Li Yuan felt a bit embarrassed but sweet at heart.

"No need for the trouble." Huang Haoran quickly gestured with his hand, saying, "I have official duties and can’t stay long. I came specifically to inform Mr. Chen that the magical treasures you requested are ready, and you can collect them from the Demon Suppression Department at any time."

Not handling treasures personally, nor letting spells leave sight, was the unwritten rule.

As cultivators, they paid more attention to this, which is why the items weren’t delivered directly.

Chen Mo asked curiously, "Is the Demon Suppression Department so busy?"

Huang Haoran nodded, "Some incidents have occurred recently, and Li Gongfeng intended to come personally, but he couldn’t find the time."

Chen Mo’s eyes flickered slightly.

He could roughly guess it had something to do with the Demon Clan that appeared the night of the Hundred Flowers Meeting.

"I happen to be free now, so I’ll accompany Tributor Huang over."

"Very well."

The two of them exited the Government office.

Chen Mo mounted the Crimson Steed and galloped toward the East Suburb.

Huang Haoran, however, pasted a talisman on his leg, with a refreshing breeze swirling around him, moving alongside him without touching the ground, looking extremely relaxed and carefree.

Noticing Chen Mo’s slightly curious gaze, Huang Haoran explained, "This is a Swift Movement Talisman, crafted by a fifth-rank talisman master. It allows one to travel a thousand miles a day without depleting one’s own Primordial Qi, making it very convenient for travel."

"Such mysteriousness, the magician’s means were indeed extraordinary."

Chen Mo praised, then asked, "Are there any other talismans?"

Huang Haoran chuckled, "Of course, there are others, like: Healing Talisman, Breakthrough Talisman, Fire Talisman, Giant Strength Talisman... These are quite common, and their effects vary."

"They can also have offensive Daoist Arts inscribed into them, which can display great power at crucial moments."

"However, the specific effects depend on the talisman master’s own level."

Seeing Chen Mo’s eyes gleaming, Huang Haoran realized and said, "If Mr. Chen is interested, I can give you some of each type of talisman."

"Eh, I wouldn’t want to impose."

Chen Mo waved his hands repeatedly.

Huang Haoran spoke earnestly, "Mr. Chen’s feats in slaying demons and exorcising evil are as monumental as mountains. Everyone in the Demon Suppression Department admires you, so this is nothing."
