"This isn’t betrayal."
"She gave up on you all."
Chen Mo reached out to pinch a face like soft tofu, smiling and saying, "You’ve merely done the right thing. Ji Lianxing has already been blinded by hatred. If you choose to help her, you’ll only push her into the abyss."
"But from what I know of Master, she won’t give up easily," Ye Henshui said, looking at Chen Mo with a worried expression. "What if Master still wants to do something to you?"
"Ji Lianxing isn’t a fool."
"Trying to take revenge with her own strength is nothing but a fool’s dream. She can only rely on others’ power."
"Currently, beyond the court, only the Three Saint Sect can rival Her Majesty the Consort... In order to gain their support, she must rebuild the sect and increase her influence, so the Azure Darkness Seal is crucial for her."
Chen Mo said calmly, "Before she gets the Azure Darkness Seal, she definitely won’t act rashly."
This was also the case in the original plot, where Ji Lianxing used the Heart Devouring Poisonous Insect to control the predecessor and obtained a lot of intelligence, laying the groundwork for the later entry of the Three Saints and the Empress’s fierce methods.
But this time, the situation is somewhat different.
Not only have her two beloved disciples been subverted, but the Daoist Venerable has also become Chen Mo’s "bed companion"...
"Ha, I don’t believe that Burning Beauty can still make any waves," Chen Mo’s lips curled into a cold smile.
Ye Henshui hesitated for a moment, then spoke up, "Mr. Chen, I have an unreasonable request..."
Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, "Want to suppress the ripples?"
"No, it’s not..." Ye Henshui bit her lips, cautiously saying, "If Master’s revenge plan fails, could you spare her life?"
Chen Mo: "..."
Why does this sound so familiar?
"Actually, Master isn’t really a bad person, nor was she always like this... Perhaps everyone could live in peace someday," Ye Henshui’s voice grew smaller, as if even she felt that her words weren’t convincing.
Live in peace?
I’m getting in the water here, while Burning Beauty pushes from behind?
Chen Mo shook his head with a bitter smile. That scenario was just too absurd.
Ye Henshui hugged Chen Mo’s arm, gently swaying it, and said childishly, "Mr. Chen is so powerful, you’ll definitely have a way, right?"
Feeling the delicate, smooth touch, Chen Mo’s throat moved, and he said, "Then what’s in it for me if I do that? You have to show some gesture, right?"
Ye Henshui blinked with her agate eyes and asked, "What kind of benefit does Mr. Chen want?"
Chen Mo cleared his throat and said, "I’m quite interested in that gray robe of yours. Next time when you practice, why don’t you wear that robe..."
If Ye Henshui puts on or takes off her hood suddenly during practice, what would her reaction be?
He was indeed a bit curious...
?
Ye Henshui was momentarily confused.
Then her face turned bright red, glaring at Chen Mo in embarrassment and annoyance, "You big bad guy, you really have a belly full of mischief!"
Chen Mo chuckled, "Aren’t you mistaken? From the look of things earlier, it’s obvious your belly has more mischief..."
Ye Henshui’s cheeks grew even redder, stammering, "Isn’t it you... you on purpose made things bad, wishing to bully me to death... Mr. Chen is really so annoying!"
Knock, knock, knock—
