I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1440

Chapter 1440: Chapter 558: He Yuzhi: What Does It Mean for the Empress to Be My Daughter-in-Law? (8K)_5

The death of Wei Xuan indeed took him by surprise.

Although the two of them had not interacted much and had no real friendship to speak of, seeing Wei Xuan choose to destroy his own Divine Soul just to kill Sikong Che was still somewhat moving.

Wei Xuan, or rather Wu Lie, had a fundamental sadness to him.

Compared to struggling on in an irresistible fate, this man chose to burn out his life, blooming for a brief moment like fireworks.

It was only then that Chen Mo finally understood what Wei Xuan meant when he said that day at the Qilin Pavilion, "As long as you don’t overturn the table, I won’t intervene."

His real intention was not to warn him to follow the rules, but to imply that as long as he had the ability to overturn the table, he was prepared to help him at the critical moment!

"Mr. Wei..."

"I suppose he died for the right reasons, didn’t he?"

Chen Mo sighed and stopped thinking too much, turning to walk toward the East Wing.

As he approached the door, he seemed to sense something, a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes, and he pushed the door open and walked in.

Inside the room, all the lights were dimmed, and the bright moonlight filtered through the window lattice, casting a layer of silver edges on the furniture.

Chen Mo rounded the screen and approached the bed, just stretching out his hand to lift the gauze curtain, when he heard a sound, and the candlelight ignited, dispelling the darkness before him.

Two enchanting figures came into view—

Shen Zhixia’s face was like a peach blossom, eyes filled with spring waves, draped in a gauzy silk dress, with her skin faintly visible underneath. Behind the skirt, a fluffy white fox tail dragged, adding a touch of wild allure.

At this moment, her hands were bound with hemp rope, the other end tied to the bedpost, her legs closed, calves turned outward, kneeling on the bed.

Ling Ningzhi sat cross-legged opposite her, holding a horsetail whisk. Her Moon White Daoist Robe was impeccable, but with Chen Mo’s discerning eye, it wasn’t hard to see that it was likely the only garment she had on.

"What are you..."

"Lord, you arrived just in time. Please release me, this stinky Daoist Nun wants to harm me~" Shen Zhixia rubbed her legs together, playing the part of the pitiful girl.

Chen Mo: "..."

Shen Zhixia glanced at Ling Ningzhi and quietly urged, "Daoist, recite the words!"

Ling Ningzhi finally caught up, stammering, "You, you Fox Demon, sucking human Essence Qi, full of sins, today I shall, shall act on heaven’s behalf! Sir, quickly retreat, beware that she may do you harm!"

After exerting considerable effort, she managed to finish the line, her face blushing deeply, secretly wondering: What on earth is Zhixia up to now, isn’t this way too embarrassing...

"Lord, save me~ This Daoist Nun hits really hard~" Shen Zhixia said coquettishly.
