I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 560

Chapter 560: Chapter 217 A Real Man Must Face a Man! Arrest Officer Little Grapefruit, Here to Protect!

Clang——

The sound of silk and bamboo abruptly ceased, plunging the room into deathly silence.

Looking at the three tokens on the table before him, a ripple finally appeared in Chu Heng’s indifferent eyes.

"This is..."

To the side, Yang Lin’s pupils suddenly contracted into pinpoints!

Engraved with the image of a phoenix perching on a parasol tree, that golden token was the Second Rank Flying Phoenix Order, rumored to be the Death Exemption Token!

The other two included a purple token etched with a luan and phoenix spreading wings, and a dark token intricately carved with a qilin, vividly lifelike!

Purple Phoenix Order and Qilin Token!

Representing the authority of Consort Yu and the Qilin Pavilion respectively!

Thud——

Yang Lin’s knees went weak, and he fell to the ground, prostrating in kowtow, his body trembling as if sifted by a cold wind.

Seeing the Purple Phoenix and Flying Phoenix was as if their real owners had arrived!

"Your humble servant, pays respects to Her Majesty the Empress, pays respects to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine!"

Clatter——

The other musicians and dancing girls, seeing this, all knelt to the ground one after another.

The young noblemen at the same table looked at each other at a loss as to what to do.

The dancing girl in Chu Heng’s embrace trembled as he gently stroked her hair, raising his eyes towards Chen Mo, and said in a calm tone, "Is Mr. Chen using this old trick again? Trying to scare me with a few tokens, do you take me for the likes of Zhou Jing’an?"

Chen Mo shook his head and replied with a smile, "Tricks need not be many, as long as they work... Zhou Jing’an was rather dumb too, rejecting a life of nobility to serve like a dog, only to be skinned, while his master didn’t even glance at him, tsk tsk..."

Observing his regretful demeanor, Chu Heng’s gaze darkened slightly, "What exactly are you aiming for?"

"I should be asking the princely heir this." Chen Mo pressed his finger against the table, his deep eyes fixed on Chu Heng’s, "The princely heir repeatedly causes trouble, doesn’t appreciate kindness... do you think your neck is hard enough, or my knife not sharp?"

"Hiss——"

Upon hearing these words, the crowd gasped in shock.

Though they knew this Mr. Chen was quite bold, they hadn’t expected such audacity!

With a playful smile, Chu Heng’s slender lips arched, "Why, have you not killed enough colleagues yet, Mr. Chen, and now wish to take my life?"

Chen Mo casually flicked a token and said indifferently, "I’ve laid out the rules; it’s up to the princely heir to choose."

"Oh?"

Chu Heng, somewhat intrigued, asked, "What if I choose the Qilin Token?"

"Then according to the Sky Scale Guard’s rules, I suspect the princely heir of colluding with the Demon Clan, harboring Red Sand, plotting against court officials, and attempting to subvert the regime... you’ll have to come with me for investigation." Chen Mo stated earnestly.

Hearing this, Chu Heng furrowed his eyebrows, "One should be accountable for their words. You’ve baselessly accused this princely heir; do you have evidence?"

Chen Mo countered, "Why not inquire around, have I ever needed evidence to handle a case?"
