I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1436

Chapter 1436: Chapter 558: He Yuzhi: What Do You Mean by Making the Empress My Daughter-in-law? (8K)

"What did I just hear?"

Sun Senior Palace Lady’s expression was blank, suspecting that there was something wrong with her ears.

Chen Mo didn’t expect the Imperial Consort to be so direct. Even though he was experienced in affairs of the heart, his mind went blank at this moment, like a statue stuck in place.

The air at the scene was dead silent.

Yu Youhan saw that he wasn’t speaking, and her brows furrowed even more, "Are you thinking of backing out?"

"Of course not!"

Chen Mo reacted swiftly, hurriedly saying, "I’ve waited a long time for this day. The specific matters are already arranged, now everything is ready except for the final push. Before long, I’ll be able to marry Her Majesty the Consort in an open and dignified manner!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Youhan’s heart skipped a beat.

It turned out Chen Mo hadn’t forgotten their agreement and had already been quietly preparing?

Her heart was filled with joy, and she couldn’t help but smile broadly, feeling shy. She glanced at Sun Senior Palace Lady and whispered, "I know, but why did you have to shout so loudly?"

Chen Mo: "..."

Yu Youhan understood that her status was special, and it would not be easy to marry into the Chen Family. She didn’t want to put Chen Mo in a difficult position, so she softly said:

"I don’t care about the formalities or traditions, nor do I need any grand ceremony. As long as both of us and your parents are present, it’s enough. There’s no need to make it a public affair..."

Actually, all she wanted was acceptance from Chen Mo’s family.

She didn’t care how outsiders viewed it; as long as Chen Zhuo and He Yuzhi treated her as their daughter-in-law, that was enough.

Chen Mo didn’t offer much explanation, just smiled and said, "Rest assured, Your Majesty, I’ve got it covered."

"Hm."

Yu Youhan lowered her head, staring at her toes, and responded briefly.

She initially wanted to invite Chen Mo to visit the Frozen Sky Palace, but feared she might lose control. Having endured until now, she couldn’t afford to falter before the wedding.

"I’ll go back now, remember to let your parents know in advance so they don’t get startled..."

After speaking, she gracefully turned and left.

Seeing the flushed earlobes beneath her hair, Chen Mo’s eyes were filled with amusement.

Even if Her Majesty didn’t mention it, he could guess that it was the overnight stay at Ningde Palace giving her a sense of crisis, worried her position in the Chen family was at risk, hence her eager demeanor...

I must say, it was quite cute...

However, what Chen Mo found cute, Sun Senior Palace Lady found a bit terrifying.

After confirming that Yu Youhan had gone far, she tugged at Chen Mo’s sleeve, her expression fearful, incoherently saying, "Her Majesty the Consort wouldn’t kill me to silence me, right? I didn’t hear anything just now, Mr. Chen, you must save me..."

Chen Mo: "..."

...

The young soldier’s forehead bulged with veins, but ultimately he held back, releasing his grip on the knife, grabbing the man’s collar, and in a pressed voice said, "It’s only you with family? At least you saw them one last time! My parents are dead too, and I didn’t even have time to gather their bodies, where the hell do I seek justice?!"

With that, he pushed the man away.

The middle-aged man staggered back, falling to the ground.

Watching the departed carts, his gaze turned hollow, as if his soul had been extracted.

From afar, Chen Mo observed the scene, sensing the emotions—negative feelings like gray threads weaving in the air.

These emotions would influence each other, spreading in scale, eventually potentially causing uncontrollable consequences... When a person reaches the depths of despair, they are capable of anything.

"Perhaps..."

"I can do something."

Chen Mo’s spirit stirred, with the golden crystal within the Spirit Platform flickering softly, extending along the threads to purge all the gray aura.

The cries gradually diminished, though everyone’s expressions remained sorrowful, the despair in their hearts eased a little, no longer wishing to follow their beloved into death.

The Power of Seven Emotions originally came from the people and returning it to them was only natural.

"My ability is limited, since I can’t bring the dead back to life, I should find a way to help the living continue."

Step—

Chen Mo walked forward silently, hands behind his back, pacing through the city.
