I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1123

At this moment, standing together was like two snow lotuses blooming on the pinnacle of Heavenly Mountain, which could only be admired from afar and not desecrated.

"Daoist Venerable, Daoist Qingxuan, you both are up as well? How did you sleep last night?" Shen Zhixia waved and greeted with a smile.

"Uh, it was alright..."

After being desecrated all night, the two of them found it difficult not to feel guilty upon seeing the main character now.

One looked at the sky with hands behind his back, while the other looked at the ground, not daring to meet her eyes.

Ling Ningzhi was quite alright since she didn't know that the woman who joined midway was actually her master, and she had previously had a duo cultivation experience with Shen Zhixia, but not as blatant.

Ji Hongxiu was different.

Usually, in front of Ling Ningzhi, she always upheld the image of a strict master, yet ended up being intertwined with Chen Mo, completely breaking the moral bottom line she had as a master!

What's even harder for her to accept is—

Deep down in her heart, she wasn't as repulsed by this feeling as she should be, aside from guilt, there's even a trace of imperceptible excitement and anticipation?

"Clearly, I've already severed the Three Corpses, in theory, I shouldn't have such thoughts..."

"What is exactly going on?"

Ji Hongxiu was utterly bewildered.

But what is certain is that, as of now, there's no turning back for her.

"Zhixia, I came without invitation yesterday, are you really not upset?" Ling Ningzhi asked cautiously.

Shen Zhixia looked puzzled and said, "Why should I be mad? I'm really glad you came this time, Daoist, after all, we're lifelong friends!"

Unexpectedly, the other was so magnanimous, Ling Ningzhi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded hard, saying, "That's right, good friends, forever!"

"..."

Looking at the cross-server chatting between the two, Chen Mo's mouth twitched a little and he spoke, "It's getting late, Master Huo is still waiting, we should head over."

"Hmm."

"Alright."

They nodded in agreement and followed Chai Haochuan towards Qionghua Palace.

Along the way, Martial Saint Mountain disciples gave curious glances towards Chen Mo, as the incident at Qiyun Peak had spread within the sect—they were all curious about this young man who had defeated the Purple Peak Master.

They entered the main hall, passed through the corridor, and arrived in the dining hall.

A round table was set up inside the hall, full of delicacies on jade plates, steaming hot.

Several figures sat around the table, apart from Huo Wuya and Zi Wenzhong father and son, there was also a man and a woman.

The man was burly, with rugged features, though his beard and hair were slightly grizzled, he appeared vigorous, as if in his prime.

The woman was the youngest among them, wearing a blue martial robe, with fair skin, a well-proportioned figure, and a heroic spirit between her brows.

Upon seeing them enter, they all stood up, except for Huo Wuya, the others bowed to Ji Hongxiu respectfully.

"Junior greets Daoist Venerable!"

This was the Sect Leader of Tianshu Pavilion, one of the strongest across Jiu Zhou!

Regarding age, Ji Hongxiu might be younger than them, but in terms of seniority and strength, few could match her across the world!

Ji Hongxiu nodded slightly, speaking with an indifferent tone, "You're too formal."

Only then did they rise.

"Ahem."

Huo Wuya cleared his throat and said, "It's rare for the Daoist Venerable and Chen Mo to visit, it was too rushed yesterday to properly welcome you. A modest feast has been prepared this morning to give you all a warm welcome."

"Junior is overwhelmed." Chen Mo cupped his hands, saying, "I did not send a greeting in advance, hastily visiting, I hope Master doesn't mind."

"You are Zhixia's fiancé, which makes you half a son-in-law of Martial Saint Mountain, we're all family, no need for such courtesy." Huo Wuya waved his hand, then introduced, "You already know Zi Wenzhong, these two are Peak Master Tan Han of Split Sky Peak and Peak Master Jiang Zhiyun of Luoxing Peak, both are Martial Arts First-Grade Grandmasters."

"Regards, seniors." Chen Mo nodded in greeting.
