I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 486

Chapter 486: Chapter 194: The Empress and the Demon Lord Fight Over a Man! Daoist Venerable Steals the Home Again!_2

This Communication Jade was forcibly given to him by He Yuzhi after he nearly lost his life in the Southern Border last time... After all, in her eyes, nothing is more important than her son’s life.

"Why not use your connections when you have them?"

"It’s the Government’s business, I can’t interfere, but when it comes to dealing with the Demon Clan, there’s no need to have too many scruples."

Watching He Yuzhi swat at Mu Yueyao like a fly, rendering her defenseless, Chen Mo finally felt at ease, turned around, and approached Ye Henshui.

The Array had already been destroyed by the aftermath of that palm strike. Chen Mo swung his blade to cut through the iron chains, and Ye Henshui, who was extremely weakened at this point, fell straight down after losing her bindings.

Chen Mo quickly reached out to catch her in his arms, "Hey, are you okay?"

Resting in that firm embrace, Ye Henshui finally felt a sense of security. In a hoarse voice, she said, "I’m fine..."

Chen Mo transferred a strand of True Yuan over, carefully probing her condition.

"Your acupoints have been sealed, Primordial Qi is lost, and Essence Qi is insufficient... You call this fine? How many days has it been since you last ate or drank?"

"Four days..."

Ye Henshui replied softly.

Chen Mo frowned.

The Daoist constitution is inherently weak; before reaching the Grain Avoidance Realm, they need three meals a day just like ordinary people.

If one can still circulate Primordial Qi, they might last for some time, but now her acupoints are sealed, making her no different from a mortal... Surviving several days without water is rather lucky...

"Let’s get you some water first."

Chen Mo took out a water pouch from the Sumeru Bag, bringing it to her lips.

At this moment, Ye Henshui could no longer concern herself with gender boundaries, as she opened her lips and hungrily sucked on the spout.

Once she had drunk enough, Chen Mo pulled the water pouch away.

Her eyes filled with longing, Ye Henshui pouted, "I want more..."

"Your organs are severely dehydrated and need to replenish fluids; gulping down too much plain water isn’t good. Just wet your throat first, and I’ll give you more later." Chen Mo said.

"Oh, alright."

Ye Henshui, though very thirsty, nodded obediently.

Chen Mo then took out a piece of plum cake, broke it into small pieces, and fed them to Ye Henshui.

Watching his meticulous and earnest manner, Ye Henshui blushed, her gaze wandering slightly, as she nibbled like a hamster.

After finishing the entire piece of cake, she finally regained some spirit.

Chen Mo, however, remained vigilant, using Vitality Essence to help regulate her unbalanced organs.

"Chen Mo..."

"What’s up?"

"You..."

Biting her lip, Ye Henshui softly asked, "Why did you come to rescue me?"

In her view, Chen Mo had no reason to risk himself for her.

Chen Mo said quizzically, "We’re all our own people, isn’t it only right to do so?"

Ye Henshui’s face reddened further, her fingers intertwining, muttering, "You’re with the Holy Daughter, I’m just an outsider... Besides, I almost caused you trouble back then..."

Chen Mo shook his head, "There’s no need to dwell on past matters. You’re Manzhi’s junior sister; if anything happened to you, she would be heartbroken, and I naturally couldn’t stand by and do nothing."

Ah, so it’s because of the Holy Daughter...

What on earth was I thinking?
