I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165: Chapter 104 Empress Panics! Empress’s New Equipment! (6K)_3

According to reason, slaying Ji-level demons and being promoted to Second-Class Contributor would not be too much.

However, Chen Mo was an auxiliary personnel, and one also had to consider the thoughts of the Qilin Pavilion, as one cannot break the rules. Heavenly Rank Martial Technique and high-grade Spiritual Pill were enough to compensate.

Elder Ling lay lazily in the rocking chair, saying, "Do as you see fit."

Suddenly, his expression became a little startled, and with some surprise he said, "Hmm? That girl actually knows to come back?"

With a casual gesture, the void rippled, and a moon white Daoist robe floated in midair.

"Ning Zhi, you’ve returned."

Yuan Junfeng said with a smile.

"Uncle Yuan, long time no see." Ling Ningzhi nodded slightly, then looked at the old man in the rocking chair, smiled, and said, "Grandfather, have you missed me?"

Elder Ling snorted coldly, "Do you still have me, your grandfather, in your heart? I thought you had long forgotten this old man!"

Ling Ningzhi moved closer, squatted beside Elder Ling, and hugged his arm lovingly, her cool voice carrying a few playful tones, "I could forget anyone, but I’d never forget Grandpa. Isn’t it just that the sect is strict, not allowing casual trips down the mountain? Please don’t be mad at Zhi’er, all right?"

Her sweet coaxing melted Elder Ling’s heart until there wasn’t a trace of resentment left, but he still stubbornly said, "I don’t know what’s so good about the Tianshu Pavilion. If you want to learn Daoist Skills, can’t I teach you? You insist on taking that madwoman as your master."

Ling Ningzhi chuckled and didn’t respond, instead she asked, "What were you discussing just now?"

Yuan Junfeng replied, "Recently, Elder Ling has taken a fancy to a young man, talking about him non-stop. He’s quite interested."

"Oh?"

Ling Ningzhi was somewhat curious.

She knew very well how high her grandfather’s standards were. Even a Heavenly Pride from the Cloud Top Ranking seemed mediocre to him.

"For Grandpa to take a liking, it must be a prodigy... Innate Taoist Body?"

Yuan Junfeng shook his head and said, "It’s a martial cultivator."

Ling Ningzhi was stunned upon hearing this, "A martial cultivator?"

"This fellow does have some capabilities."

Yuan Junfeng briefly recounted Chen Mo’s deeds over the past period.

When hearing about Chen Mo’s demon-slaying at Hengjiang Ridge, saving the contributor from the mouth of the Demon Tree, Ling Ningzhi’s brows lifted, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Could it be him?"

*Thoughts crossed Ling Ningzhi’s mind* as she asked, "Is this Chen Mo part of the Sky Scale Guard?"

Yuan Junfeng nodded, "He’s with the Heavenly Qilin Guard Ding Huo Division Hundred Households."

*Ling Ningzhi secretly noted it down, saying nothing more.*

"You rascal, how long do you plan to stay this time?" Elder Ling asked.

Ling Ningzhi rested her head on the old man’s shoulder and said, "Grandpa, as long as you want Zhi’er to stay, Zhi’er will stay."

"Hmph, I wouldn’t dare hinder your cultivation, or else that madwoman would come causing trouble again."

Though Elder Ling said this, the smile on his face was unmistakable.

"Master is not mad, just unconventional."

"Hehe, unconventional madwoman."

"..."

Ding Fire Department Office, inner room.

Li Yuan sat on the bed in a duck-sitting posture. The black underwear supported her large chest, and the black silk covering her long legs was in tatters. Marks stained her fair skin.

She panted slightly, cheeks flushed, her expression full of reproach.
