I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64: Chapter 50 Sorry Consort Yu, I Want It All! (Please Follow)

Candlelight flickered, its glow dim and yellowish.

Yu’er climbed in through the window, her hair soggy and dripping with water, her delicate silk dress clinging tightly to her body, revealing glimpses of her curves.

Just as she was about to act coy, she sensed that the atmosphere was off and silently crouched in the corner, not daring to make a sound.

Gu Manzhi watched Chen Mo, her dark eyebrows slightly furrowed.

The Azure Darkness Seal was the founding Holy Treasure of the Moon Brilliance Sect, capable of deducing all methods; the Green Jade Scripture was derived from it and was the foundation of the Moon Brilliance Sect’s prominent position among the Eight Great Sects.

That day, the sect was destroyed, its gate shattered, and the whereabouts of the Azure Darkness Seal became unknown—

It was very likely in the hands of Yu Youhan, the mastermind behind the scenes!

"Can you retrieve the Azure Darkness Seal? That is a priceless treasure; Consort Yu wouldn’t easily reveal it to others," said Gu Manzhi.

Chen Mo responded indifferently, "That item might be a treasure to you, but in Empress’s eyes, it’s worthless. The path Empress cultivates, how could it be deduced by a mere Magical Treasure?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Manzhi felt somewhat dissatisfied, but she had to admit it was true.

Yu Youhan’s cultivation realm had reached another level; otherwise, her master wouldn’t have been so wary of even mentioning her name, having never stepped half into Tiandu City to this day.

"Even if she can’t use it herself, she could still use it to expand her subordinate’s power. Why would she give it to you?"

Clang—

Chen Mo pulled out a purple Token from his bosom and threw it on the table.

Seeing the soaring Purple Phoenix on the token, Gu Manzhi’s pupils slightly constricted.

She was all too familiar with this insignia!

"You don’t know my standing in the eyes of the Empress. The Purple Phoenix Order, Vitality Essence, Soul Capturing Divine Ability... all were bestowed by the Empress."

"As long as you are willing to cooperate, getting the Azure Darkness Seal won’t be difficult."

Chen Mo began to paint a rosy picture.

After a moment of silence, biting her lips, Gu Manzhi asked, "You wouldn’t be serving as a concubine to Consort Yu, would you?"

With such handsome features, it was normal for that demoness to favor him; no wonder he was so favored...

?

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "Not exactly a concubine; I should be considered... a technician."

The Empress’s personal foot therapy technician!

To come back to it, with the cultivation realm of Empress, her physical condition was extraordinarily exaggerated; even blades and swords could hardly damage her, I wonder if it would turn into a hardened film...

Chen Mo’s thoughts began to diverge.

Gu Manzhi looked skeptical but did not continue to question him.

To get back the Azure Darkness Seal would be a great achievement, even possibly enabling the rebuilding of the sect!

Even with a slim chance, it was not to be easily missed!

"It’s an opportunity to get closer to Chen Mo, laying the groundwork for flipping him in the future..."

"Sorry Consort Yu, I want both the Azure Darkness Seal and Chen Mo!"

...

A stick of incense later.

Yu’er lay on the ground, watching the little paper figures running around, her round eyes filled with curiosity.

Gu Manzhi’s face was slightly pale as she said, "These ten paper figures can share senses. Keep one on you and deploy the rest around the surveillance target; any abnormal movement within ten miles can be sensed immediately."

"Don’t resist."

Chen Mo flicked his fingers, and a streak of green light entered Gu Manzhi’s forehead.

She felt instantly refreshed, reinvigorated, and the lingering internal injuries in her body were all healed.

"This is just the interest paid in advance, I’ll figure out a way for the Azure Darkness Seal," said Chen Mo.

Gu Manzhi nodded, "I hope you keep your word."

"I want it too~"

Yu’er crawled in front of Chen Mo, stretching out her tongue like a little dog.

Chen Mo squeezed out a drop of Essence and dropped it into her mouth. She savored it carefully, as if it was an unparalleled delicacy, rolling her eyes in pleasure.

"..."

Chen Mo frowned and said, "How did you train her to be like this?"

Gu Manzhi retorted breathlessly, "She taught herself, what does it have to do with me?"

At this hour, deep into the night, the night outside was as dense as ink.

Master Chen, after a busy day, was too lazy to go home and stood up, moving towards the bathhouse.

Gu Manzhi puzzled, "What are you doing?"

"Bathing, sleeping... well, good, the water is still hot."

The person in the grey robe sits down by the bed and touches the quilt—dry this time.

"Elder Yu sent a message asking about the progress of the mission, what exactly are you planning?" the person in grey robe asks.

Gu Manzhi opens her eyes, a flash of brilliance, "Plans have changed, preparing to revive the Sect!"

The person in grey robe: "?"

...

In Qingya House, the staying guests gradually leave the courtyard.

"Mr. Li, how was the dancing girl last night?"

"One word, exquisite!"

"Indeed, Qingya House lives up to its reputation, although they don’t have an Oiran, the quality of the dancing girls and musicians is first-rate."

"It’s a pity, Miss Yu’er only plays the zither now, no longer accompanies drinking."

"Be content, being able to listen to her play is already a blessing."

People chat in groups.

Even the elegant courtesans will receive guests after grooming, but Yu’er is an exception; even when someone offers a fortune, she remains unmoved.

At first, some criticized her for pretending to be aloof and being mercenary, but as soon as they hear her play once, all doubts evaporate.

Such extraordinary and transcendent zither skills indeed justify her aloofness.

At this moment, the gate opens and a tall man walks out.

He wears a black robe embroidered with gold patterns, black boots, a jade pendant hanging from his waist, his handsome appearance full of noble aura.

Yu’er, barefoot, follows behind, wrapped in a cloak, and tiptoes to peck on the man’s face.

"Master, remember to come to see me often~"

The man, impatient, responds: "Enough, cut the nonsense, I really don’t know what’s in your head..."

"All that is in my head is master~"

"Shut up."

?

People gaze silently at the scene.

The atmosphere is dead silent, quiet as a mute sparrow.
