I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon-Chapter 846 - 316: Her Majesty the Consort’s Counterattack! Aunt and Niece at Odds, Chen Mo Benefits!

Chapter 846: Chapter 316: Her Majesty the Consort’s Counterattack! Aunt and Niece at Odds, Chen Mo Benefits!

Since the Demon Clan has repeatedly tested the court’s limits, and now they’ve set their sights on Chen Mo, there’s no need to hesitate any longer—

This time, the Demon Suppression Department went to the Desolate Domain to investigate and prepare for action!

Thud, thud, thud—

At this moment, the sound of knocking came.

Sun Senior Palace Lady quickly walked in, bowed, and said: "Your Highness, a flying letter from the Northern Territory has arrived with significant findings..."

Both of them suddenly looked up.

"Have you found Chen Mo?!"

"Where is he? Is he injured?"

Seeing their eager expressions, Sun Senior Palace Lady’s gaze turned slightly odd, yet she dared not show it. She cleared her throat and said:

"For now, Chen’s whereabouts are still undiscovered..."

"However, according to the intelligence sent back by the Demon Suppression Department’s tributor, a thousand miles of Red Blood Mountain range have vanished into thin air, seemingly attacked by some mysterious force. Rough estimates suggest that tens of thousands of the Demon Clan have perished..."

? !

The Empress and Lin Jingzhu exchanged a glance, their expressions stunned.

Red Blood Mountain Range is the so-called "Demon Clan Royal Court," gathering the core forces of the entire Demon Clan. And someone nearly wiped it out?!

"Is this true?"

"Absolutely true." Sun Senior Palace Lady nodded: "Currently, all the Demon Clan has contracted near Red Blood Peak, heavily guarded, like startled birds. It seems this happened only in the past few days."

The Empress calmed down, eyes flickering.

So while the Demon Clan caused chaos in the Capital City, someone went to the Desolate Domain and invaded their home?

Such powerful existences in the entire Jiu Zhou can be counted on one hand. She first thought of Yu Youhan, and since the day of the festival, that woman has not shown up.

"If Yu Youhan truly went to the Desolate Domain, did she perhaps bring Chen Mo back?"

"No, I need to go to Frozen Sky Palace and have a look."

With this thought, the Empress couldn’t sit still, rose to leave the hall.

Lin Jingzhu, seeing this, hurriedly followed behind.

Just as they reached the door, they saw a familiar figure coming in, leaving them momentarily frozen.

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Empress. Lin Catcher is here too?" Chen Mo asked curiously, "Where are you hastily heading?"

"..."

The air silenced for a moment.

Then a figure in white crashed into his embrace like a homing swallow.

Lin Jingzhu clung tightly to him, her voice trembling, "You, this guy, where have you been these days? Do you know how worried I was? I really don’t want to go through what happened last time again..."

"Uh, it’s a long story..."

Chen Mo’s mouth twitched.

These days have indeed been overly "eventful."

First, he entered the path at Tianlan Mountain, battling Ji Hongxiu and Ji Baixiu each for three hundred rounds.

Then he was enticed by the Princess to Changning Pavilion, where he was scolded severely.

Next, in Frozen Sky Palace, he was bound back and forth with the Empress... Especially in the end, the Empress, for "revenge," turned into a mischievous imp, using everything she had, almost overwhelming him, and now his legs are still a bit weak when walking.

Originally planning to stay another night in Frozen Sky Palace, but thinking about how his absence worried the Empress, he decided to report his safety at Yangxin Palace first.

As soon as he entered, he was embraced by Little Grapefruit.

Chen Mo reached out to pat Lin Jingzhu’s back and said, "Lin Catcher, Her Majesty is still here..."

Lin Jingzhu, who hadn’t seen her beloved for a long time, finally relieved her longing and couldn’t bear to let go.

Simply pretended not to hear, clinging to him like a koala.

Sun Senior Palace Lady looked at the Empress’s expressionless face, feeling chills down her spine and shivering.

Others may not know, but she knows very well that Chen Mo is Her Majesty the Empress’s private favorite... and now Miss Lin has set her eyes on him?

Won’t this turn into a scene of rivalry between aunt and niece?

"Such a blue-eyed troublemaker indeed..."

With Sun Senior Palace Lady’s intuition developed over many years in the palace, she knew such situations are best avoided as far as possible.

She didn’t dare to make a sound, quietly lowered her head, and slipped out of the hall along the wall.

Yangxin Palace only had three people left.

The Empress said indifferently: "Zhu’er, this is no way to behave in public. Let go of Chen Mo quickly, I have important matters to discuss with him."

Lin Jingzhu knew clearly, once she let go, the Empress would try to send her away.

Her eyes rolled, acting pitifully: "Auntie, I think my Chill Toxin is acting up, I’m feeling terribly cold and very weak..."

"Is this true?"

The Empress’s brows furrowed, somewhat doubtful.

She was fine just now, how did she suddenly fall ill upon seeing Chen Mo?

Lin Jingzhu secretly bit Chen Mo’s earlobe, whispering: "Hubby, speak for me..."

Chen Mo, both amused and exasperated, didn’t dare to reveal anything, nodded and said: "I’ve been busy with the Prince Yu Mansion case and haven’t had time to help Lin Catcher dispel the Chill Toxin for a while..."

"Alright then, you should treat it here at Yangxin Palace." The Empress said.

This is no joke, as severe Chill Toxin can be life-threatening.

Although she wanted to prevent the two from getting too close, she knew to prioritize the urgency.

Chen Mo carried the "weak" Lin Jingzhu into the inner hall, placing her on the small couch.

The Empress sat on a chair beside them, arms crossed, staring intently at the two.

Lin Jingzhu slightly raised her eyelids, her tone weak: "Auntie, you’re busy with state affairs, no need to stay here with us, don’t worry, we’re only treating the illness, doing nothing else."

The Empress shook her head: "You suddenly fell ill, it’s urgent, how can I be assured? I must watch over it myself... should we call Li Yuanshi for support?"

"..."

Seeing Auntie’s vigilant stance, there’s no way to have privacy today...

Lin Jingzhu drooped her head, defeated, said: "That’s not necessary, Mr. Chen, you can start."

"Alright."

With the Empress Baby watching, Chen Mo dared not act rashly, placed one hand on the Heart Meridian, and began dispelling the cold from the meridians honestly.

After breaking through Third Grade Grandmaster, the once difficult Qi-Blood manipulation became as simple as eating and drinking, with efficiency multiplied.

As the Chill Toxin continued to dissipate, Lin Jingzhu closed her eyes, operating the cultivation technique, wisps of vapor steaming out from her body, enveloping the inner hall in a misty white fog, like an obscure bathhouse.

The Empress gazed through the mist at the indistinct silhouette, her heart filled with a thousand words unspoken.

What has he experienced in these days?

Was he captured by the Demon Clan?

Is he injured?

If possible, she too wanted to be like Lin Jingzhu, unrestrainedly rush into Chen Mo’s embrace... But as the Great Yuan Empress, she can only suppress the surging emotions, quietly sitting and watching the two heal.

"Ultimately, it’s something unseen..."

As the Empress indulged in her thoughts, suddenly, a large hand reached out from the mist, grabbed her delicate hand, and pulled forcefully—

Her body felt light, spun around, and fell directly into a solid embrace.

Σ(O_O;)?

Before she could react, warmth pressed against her lips, her almond eyes widened in disbelief, looking at Chen Mo.

This little thief actually kissed her in front of Zhu’er?!
