I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1164

"Boil it once more?"

Ling Ningzhi was a little stunned, "Zhixia, what do you mean by that?"

"Just the literal meaning." Shen Zhixia's cheeks flushed slightly, her expression helpless, "It's strange, my brother came to Martial Saint Mountain this time, I was all prepared to reach a successful outcome with him, but every time it inexplicably fails..."

"..."

Ling Ningzhi and Ji Hongxiu exchanged a glance, feeling guilty as they lowered their heads.

Though neither meant to sabotage Shen Zhixia's plans, the previous two times were indeed partly linked to them.

"My brother entered the Secret Realm this time, I don't know when he'll return, if he ends up attracting a few Holy Daughter leaders, I don't even know what place I'll be in line..." Shen Zhixia bit her lip, spoke softly.

Actually, what she cares most about is the Princess's marriage proposal.

Regardless of Empress or Imperial Consort, even if they are fond of Chen Mo, their status is a hindrance, bound by social customs and laws, they dare not brazenly snatch away a person.

But the Princess is different.

Not only is her age similar to Chen Mo, but she is also not yet married, and coupled with the Holy Emperor's personal matchmaking, who knows how it might develop in the end!

Although Chen Mo says it's just a formality, once he participates in a spouse selection, it's beyond his control, if he actually becomes a Prince Consort, not to mention entering the gate, even being a mistress would be impossible!

Moreover, the girls around Chen Mo, including Ling Ningzhi, are progressing far faster than her, it's truly unsettling.

"Then I and my master will take our leave first, so as not to interrupt your cooking session."

Ling Ningzhi appeared somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this, immediately preparing to stand up and leave.

"Daoist, please stay."

Shen Zhixia hastily stopped Ling Ningzhi, saying, "I still need the Daoist's help."

Ling Ningzhi asked puzzledly, "What could a Daoist do to help with your matters?"

Shen Zhixia took out a book from her chest, the cover featuring the words "Dong Xuanzi Yin Yang Thirty-Six Skills," said, "This dual cultivation technique was given to me by my brother, I am now at the Peak of Fifth Grade and hope to use this opportunity to break through to Fourth Rank."

"But I received this technique too recently and am currently only at the entry-level, far from mastering it."

"To ensure effective cultivation, I wish for the Daoist to assist on the side."

?!

Ling Ningzhi's eyes widened, stumbled over her words, "How could someone assist with this matter? This is far too absurd!"

Shen Zhixia's eyes flashed with a trace of embarrassment, but was quickly replaced with determination, she replied earnestly, "We are all sisters, there's no reason to be embarrassed, besides, this isn't the first time, I recall the Daoist being very skilled last night, it made my eyes dizzy..."

"Stop, stop saying that!"

"Can't the Daoist just help you?"

Ling Ningzhi, blushing fiercely, hurriedly covered Shen Zhixia's lips, hesitantly said, "I could help you promote True Yuan circulation, but to achieve the best effect, you must understand the technique thoroughly yourself."
