I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1054

Chapter 1054: Chapter 390: The Empress Serves, Flowers of Wealth Bloom! Yu Youhan Breaks Through Qianji Palace!

Facing such a series of questions, Qi Lianshan was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to answer.

"Enough."

After a brief silence, an aged hand extended from the gap in the curtain, gently waving, "Withdraw, I am weary."

Was it over just like that?

Qi Lianshan’s throat moved slightly, his eyes full of confusion.

With his years of understanding of the Emperor, he was certainly not of a lenient nature and would not let him go because of some so-called affection...

After a while, seeing there was indeed no further word, Qi Lianshan then slowly stood up and tentatively said, "Then I won’t disturb His Majesty’s rest, I’ll take my leave now."

With that, he bowed and retreated.

Pushing open the grand hall’s door, he walked out of the gloomy palace. The bright sunlight fell upon him, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of sheer survival and gratitude.

"That bastard Qi Ye, I only asked him to keep an eye on the Princess to avoid exposure, who told him to act on his own against Chen Mo?"

"It wouldn’t matter if it succeeded, but he even failed..."

"However, how did the Emperor know about the Heart Devouring Poisonous Insect? Could it be that there are his people within the Qi Family?"

"Also, what is his intention by sending Chen Mo to the Southern Border this time? Is he trying to deliberately lure me into a trap?"

Qi Lianshan faintly felt he was being entrapped in a sting operation, yet could find no evidence...

Being with the Emperor is like being with a tiger; a slight misstep could be a matter of life and death. To be able to leave Qianji Palace alive today was an unexpected joy.

However, this joy did not last long.

He had just descended three layers of jade steps when he heard a commotion outside the palace walls.

"Empress, you cannot enter..."

The guard’s voice abruptly stopped the next moment.

Qi Lianshan looked up, his pupils suddenly shrinking to pinpoints.

Only to see a pair of exquisitely crafted bare feet stepping into the palace grounds, a long purple iris dress trailing on the ground, a stunning face as cold as the flower atop a mountain peak, jade eyes shimmering with icy sharpness.

"Consort Yu?!"

Qi Lianshan’s throat felt a bit dry.

This Empress usually barely leaves her chambers, why would she suddenly come to Qianji Palace?

"Greetings, Her Majesty the Consort, His Majesty is resting, perhaps another day..."

"Qi Lianshan, is it? I have come for you."

"Hmm?"

Qi Lianshan paused, a sense of foreboding rising within him, "May I know the reason for Her Majesty’s visit?"

Yu Youhan took a step forward, arriving suddenly before him, cold green eyes stared at him, with a fierce killing intent in her tone, "Naturally, to kill you."

Buzz——

The void undulated with invisible waves.

A tremendous pressure descended, as if the entire world was pressing down on him.

Crack——

Qi Lianshan’s bones snapped one by one, first the calf, thigh, ribs, sternum... the broken bone fragments pierced the skin, blood gushed like it cost nothing, and his tall figure was forcibly compressed into a three-foot dwarf!

Next, the skull began to twist and deform.

Though Chen Mo had said to proceed slowly, with patience, fishing for bigger gains, this was not Yu Youhan’s style of action.

She understood very well that one must not be lenient with these people, or there would be a second, a third time... Instead of waiting for fish to bite, she’d rather blast the pond directly!

Qi Lianshan came to this realization now.

It turned out the Emperor did not need to kill him; others would do it themselves!

"No, you can’t kill me, I am the eldest son of the Qi Family!" Qi Lianshan’s expression was frantic, his voice sharp and piercing: "Using force to interfere with the Great Yuan’s situation, even if you ultimately seize the fortune, you’ll suffer a Heart Demon’s backlash, this much you must know!"

"Heart Demon?"

Yu Youhan thought of something, a smile curved at her lips, "Sorry, we’ve reconciled long ago."
