I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1380

Chapter 1380: Chapter 533: Sikong Qinglin’s Shameful Recording! Ji Lianxing’s Message! (2)

Sikong Zuiyue’s expression was somewhat complex.

This assassination was ordered by Wei Xuan, and Chen Mo, as the Heavenly Qilin Guard Thousand Households, was undoubtedly defying his superiors with this action.

At best, it could affect his career path; at worst, he might be seen as allied with them, possibly losing his life as a result!

After all, with the skill of that Commander Wei, he could accomplish anything!

"This isn’t quite appropriate; I should leave quickly to avoid causing him trouble..."

Chu Yanli knew what she was worried about and said nonchalantly, "Don’t worry. With Chen Mo’s background, he’s not afraid of Wei Xuan. Plus, I am backing him... Moreover, he was able to foresee and resolve the crisis this time thanks to your warning; consider it repaying kindness with kindness. You can stay here without worry."

Sikong Zuiyue’s eyes revealed a trace of oddness, and from Chu Yanli’s tone, she could tell the two were extremely close, seeming like the mistress of the house, so she couldn’t help but ask, "You two..."

"Oh, he’s my man." Chu Yanli said candidly, "The kind that knows each other well."

"..."

Even though she had guessed as much, hearing it confirmed from the other party, Sikong Zuiyue couldn’t help but be a bit shocked.

The two had known each other for many years and understood each other to some extent; she found it hard to imagine that the female general commanding three armies and whose presence often spelled doom could one day fall in love?

Sikong Zuiyue tentatively said, "But I remember he seems to have quite a few women around..."

Chu Yanli shrugged and said, "I know, he’s my man, but not just my man. Why, are you interested too? Would you like me to introduce you?"

"...That’s not necessary."

Afraid the other party might say something shocking, Sikong Zuiyue silently lowered her head and said no more.

Beside them, Sikong Qinglin was still a little confused, but since they were still in the Capital City, everything could be discussed. She immediately rose to prepare to leave the bed.

"Where are you going?" Chu Yanli asked.

Sikong Qinglin whispered, "The mission failed, I must immediately return to report."

"If Wei Xuan asks you where you were last night, how would you answer?" Chu Yanli raised an eyebrow and continued, "Aren’t you selling out your sister and Chen Mo?"

Sikong Qinglin said seriously, "I will take full responsibility and absolutely will not involve Mr. Chen. As for Sikong Zuiyue... I have long ceased to have any sisterly bond with her; now we are mortal enemies!"

"Is that so?" Chu Yanli said with a smirk, "That’s not what you said last night."

"Last night?" Sikong Qinglin hadn’t realized it yet when an Image Stone was tossed onto the bed.

"You’d better look for yourself. Whether to stay or leave is up to you, I’m not going to manage it." After saying that, Chu Yanli turned and left the room.

The bedroom fell silent for a moment.

Sikong Qinglin hesitated for a moment, reached for the Image Stone, and focused her mind into it.

"What exactly is..."

"Hmm?!!"

Her body suddenly froze, her cheeks flushed as red as a ripe tomato, as if blood could seep out from them.

Seeing this, Sikong Zuiyue couldn’t help but be curious, "What did you see?"

"Nothing, nothing!" Sikong Qinglin snapped back to reality, firmly clutched the Image Stone, and wanted to leave as though fleeing.

"Wait." Sikong Zuiyue reached out to stop her, "I have something to say to you, it’s not too late to leave after you hear me out."

Sikong Qinglin’s ears were burning, her eyes evasive as she stammered, "Make it quick, say what you must, I’m still in a hurry to return and report!"

Sikong Zuiyue spoke in a low tone, "I know you hate me and think I returned to the family for fame and fortune, to collude with those who persecuted us..."

"Isn’t that so?" Sikong Qinglin replied.

Sikong Zuiyue shook her head, "The scene of our parents and kin’s tragic deaths is still fresh in my mind. Such a deep sea of blood and hatred, no amount of water from three rivers or five lakes could ever wash it away! I’d rather devour them alive; how could I ever join those scoundrels?"

Gazing at the slightly hideous face, Sikong Qinglin frowned, "If that’s the case, why did you return?"

"Because I know that those few branches alone aren’t capable of securing the inheritance; there must be someone manipulating from behind, aiming to control the Sikong family in this way." Sikong Zuiyue said with clenched teeth, "In that case, I just have to take back everything that belongs to me!"

Sikong Qinglin’s heart trembled.
