I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128: Chapter 94: Dog Eat Dog? All Must Die!

The bright Jade Plate reflected on the water’s surface, shattered by the prow of the painted boat and turned into Shattered Jade scattered into the river.

The cabin was luxuriously decorated, with gold-woven carpets and sandalwood furniture, equipped with all sorts of items, like a moving water mansion.

Behind the screen, Gu Manzhi soaked in the bath barrel, scooping up the clear water to wipe her body.

"This bad guy, to not even utter a word, leaving marks all over..."

"Humph, thought he was so powerful, and yet didn’t he lose to me?"

Thinking of Chen Mo’s uncontrollable demeanor, her cheeks blushed, and the corners of her lips curled slightly.

The relationship between the two had become increasingly absurd... *but she didn’t reject it, not in her heart, and even felt a hint of joy.*

After cleaning herself, she stepped out of the bath, activated her Primordial Qi to dry the water vapor, and donned the clothes and skirt hanging on the screen.

Returning to the bedroom, she found the room empty.

"Hmm? Where did he go?"

Gu Manzhi entered the adjoining room and saw Yu’er diligently "reading," questioning, "Where did Chen Mo go?"

Yu’er raised her head blankly, "Wasn’t the master with you?"

?!

Gu Manzhi’s heart trembled, realizing something.

A halo erupted around her, lifting her entirely off the ground as she flew out the window.

Her feet barely touched the ground as she sped along the Hidden Dragon River, her peach blossom eyes scanning for traces of Chen Mo.

Given Chen Mo’s personality, he wouldn’t have left without telling her... Certainly, he went alone to find Elder Yu!

That guy!

*Gu Manzhi felt increasingly anxious, quickening her speed.*

At that moment, a Shadow caught up with her, rapidly moving alongside, the gray robe snapping in the wind, asking,

"How did things go?"

Gu Manzhi countered, "Ye Henshui, if things get rough later, will you help me or not?"

The gray-robed figure glanced at her, "Are you planning to kill Elder Yu?"

Gu Manzhi retorted irritably, "Please, a Fourth-Level Mage, even if we teamed up, we couldn’t kill her."

"However, the Gu God Sect is inherently harmful, and my master is merely blinded by hatred. Consort Yu is the true enemy of the Moon Brilliance Sect, using the Heart Devouring Poisonous Insect to control innocent people—her methods are too contemptible! I can’t just watch Chen Mo become a puppet!"

The gray-robed figure fell silent.

Moments later, she whispered, "Either way, Elder Yu is the Sect’s Guest Elder; attacking her would mean betraying the sect... I can only promise not to interfere."

"That’s enough."

Gu Manzhi hadn’t truly expected her to help—remaining neutral was the best outcome. Elder Yu primarily intended to poison, not kill; as long as she could hold Elder Yu back, Chen Mo would have the chance to escape.

As the sect’s saintess, Elder Yu likely wouldn’t dare act against her... She could always explain to the master afterward.

The gray-robed figure cast her a sidelong glance.

This Holy Daughter, constantly talking about recruiting Chen Mo, was the one getting deeper and deeper herself...

They proceeded along the Hidden Dragon River, using Daoist Skill to conceal their tracks and departing from South Water Gate while heading towards Yushu Port.

Boom—

After just a few dozen miles, they suddenly heard a low, rumbling sound.

Looking up, they saw two figures entangled in the air.

One person was engulfed in black smoke, darker than the night itself—upon closer inspection, it appeared to be a swarm of flying insects with sharp fangs.

The other had white hair flowing and a seemingly ethereal posture, yet radiated strong Demon Energy.

Chen Mo stood nearby, watching intently.

*Seeing he was unharmed, Gu Manzhi breathed a sigh of relief, swiftly flying to his side, complaining, "Why don’t you ever take my words seriously? You even went outside the city; do you realize how dangerous it is here..."*

Chen Mo pointed to the elderly woman wrapped in the insect swarm, "Is that old woman Elder Yu you mentioned?"

Gu Manzhi nodded, "That’s right, she’s from the South Wasteland Gu God Sect."

"That white-haired member of the Demon Clan was likely arranged by the Princely Heir... Strange, why are they fighting?"

Chen Mo was a bit puzzled.

Both of them clearly came for him.

But before he arrived, they had already started fighting—a baffling situation.
