I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46: Chapter 37 The Imperial Music Bureau is Full of Undercover Agents!

Watching the withered appearance of the Faceless Man, Chen Mo felt that he probably hadn’t lied, and squeezed his little liver forcefully with his palm.

"Talk, how did you find me?"

The Faceless Man shivered, his face turning bitter.

He was only fifth-grade, unable to separate his Divine Soul from his body. If his physical form was destroyed, he would truly cease to exist!

In theory, Ghost Cultivators are the bane of Martial Cultivators, especially since he was a whole realm above his opponent, yet he ended up being pinned down and ground against the floor...

It was utterly against the natural order!

"I’ve kicked an iron plate..."

The Faceless Man completely lost his will to fight and confessed honestly.

After listening to his narrative and combining the information he knew, Chen Mo roughly pieced together the course of events.

The Faceless Man was called You Daoist, from the Western Regions Devouring Ghost Sect.

Three years ago, an error occurred during his secluded cultivation, causing his cultivation to fall. Qin Wuxiang took the opportunity to steal his Life-bound Magical Treasure, the Soul Summoning Banner, and hid in Tongling County.

But before the Magical Treasure could be refined, it was destroyed by Chen Mo.

"...I was coincidentally investigating nearby and felt the fluctuations of the Soul Summoning Banner, so I followed them all the way to Tiandu City."

"But after entering the city, the aura of the Magical Treasure disappeared without a trace, completely beyond my detection..."

"I heard that Qin Wuxiang died at your hands, and guessed that the item must have been taken by you, which is why I followed you to the Imperial Music Bureau..."

Chen Mo’s mouth twitched.

The Soul Summoning Banner had already been refined by the Empress; of course, you couldn’t sense it.

He hadn’t expected the news of him slaughtering a demon to spread so widely, leading his creditor straight to him...

"This little... Lord, I’ve said all there is to say, the ghostly beings have been devoured by you, and I’ve resigned myself to not retrieving the Magical Treasure, can you spare my life?"

You Daoist pleaded humbly.

Chen Mo retorted, "Do I look stupid to you?"

You Daoist had not yet reacted when a muffled explosion sounded within his chest, followed by black blood spurting out of his mouth and nose.

"You..."

He stared dead-eyed at Chen Mo and thudded to the ground.

Chen Mo absorbed his Divine Soul, making sure he was completely dead, before finally relaxing.

Taking out a handkerchief, he wiped the black blood and flesh off his hands.

"I hope there won’t be another person from the Devouring Ghost Sect coming to seek vengeance for him. That would truly be endless." Chen Mo muttered to himself.

At this moment, the little maid beside him spoke up, "The Devouring Ghost Sect has long been exterminated. I guess this You Daoist got some inheritance from somewhere and claimed to be from the Devouring Ghost Sect..."

Chen Mo glanced at her, "You seem to know quite a bit, Saintess Gu."

The maid’s eyes flickered, and she shook her head, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

Still playing tough?

The system prompt just now, along with that characteristic Green Jade Scripture... even a fool could see her identity.

"The words I said last time, you seem to have forgotten. You still dare to stay in Tiandu City? Do you really think I won’t kill you?"

Chen Mo’s tone was icy.

Seeing her identity exposed, the maid no longer pretended, her unique soft voice rising, "I haven’t forgotten, you said our grudges were settled, and we owed nothing to each other... Now that I have helped you kill You Daoist, does that mean you owe me a favor?"

"..."

Chen Mo frowned.

What kind of thought process does this person have?
