I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63: Chapter 49 Zhou Jing’an’s Spiritual Victory Method

The night is as dark as ink, without stars or moon.

Tiandu City is engulfed in heavy rain, and the lights of thousands of homes seem somewhat dim and gloomy.

Chen Mo leans against the wall, raindrops falling like threads along the eaves.

Once the black sedan had left, his figure leapt up, treading on rooftops, following Zhou Jing’an from a distance.

Though he was quite curious about the person in the sedan, his keen spiritual sense smelled a hint of danger, and he did not act rashly, still prioritizing the mission given by the Empress.

[Her Majesty has heard some rumors, the Zhou Family might be mining veins secretly outside the Capital City, you go and take a look, better if you could obtain evidence.]

Great Yuan has very strict management over mining veins, whether it is common metal or rare spirit ore, both are jointly controlled by the Ministry of Construction and the Metallurgy Department; unauthorized mining is tantamount to a crime of treason.

If he could find even a tiny clue, it would definitely cause significant damage to the Zhou Family!

And today’s events made Chen Mo sense something unusual, whether it’s related to the secret mining or not, Zhou Jing’an is definitely plotting something.

He followed all the way to East City, where Zhou Jing’an entered a three-section large residence.

Chen Mo stood in the shadows at the corner of a street alley, compressing his divine sense into a fine thread, skimming along the cracks in the wall, entering the Zhou Mansion.

With the experience from last time, he was extra cautious, always ready to cut off his divine sense and escape.

Fortunately, the defenses of the Zhou Mansion were far less strict than those of the Imperial Palace, and he did not alert any masters along the way.

Wandering to the depths of the mansion, avoiding several strong presences, after a long search, he finally heard Zhou Jing’an’s voice near the window of a bedroom.

His divine sense slipped through the window lattice, and the scene before him almost made him lose his composure.

He saw the bed shaking violently, with Zhou Jing’an and a woman dressed in black, who strikingly resembled a member of the Sky Scale Guard, engaging in strenuous activity.

"Kneel down! I want you to kneel down!"

"You wretch, you dare to humiliate me because you have a Gold Token?"

"You want to write a memorial to bite back at me? I’ll make you write, I’ll make you write... Write, then!"

Chen Mo: "..."

Spiritual Victory Method, huh? And they’re even into role-playing...

In his entire life, Chen Mo never thought he would become the "female lead".

As Zhou Jing’an’s breathing became more rapid and his pace quickened, Chen Mo really couldn’t bring himself to watch, and left the room.

After wandering around the Zhou Mansion for a while, marking a few peculiarly auras in his mind, he then lay in hiding, patiently waiting.

...

Bang!—Bang! Bang!

Until the third watch gong sound rang out, there was still no commotion in the Zhou Mansion.

Inside the bedroom, the breathing was even, and Zhou Jing’an, who had "taken his revenge and redressed his grievances", had already fallen into deep sleep.

"It seems there’s nothing to find tonight."

"Recently the city is on edge, he will become more cautious."

"What needs to be done now is to keep an eye on him, waiting for him to slip up..."

Chen Mo retracted his divine sense, vaulting into the air, with a light tap on the eaves, he soared away like a hawk.

...

Imperial Music Bureau, Qingya House.

Inside the tavern, guests fill the seats, dancing girls move gracefully, fluttering and dancing.

A woman clad in a light pink gauzy dress sits on the stage, her slender fingers gently strumming the strings of a lute, producing a melodious and secluded sound, like a high mountain and flowing water, enchanting the listeners.

After the piece finished, they remained immersed in the aftertaste, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

Clap, clap—

A long while later, applause broke out, gradually growing more enthusiastic.

"Excellent! An outstanding performance of Spring Courtyard Moon, truly enthralling, portraying a woman’s boudoir grievances to the fullest extent!"

"My eyes couldn’t help but moisten as I listened."

"Miss Yu’er’s piano skill has improved a lot!"

"Even compared to Gu Manzhi, her piano skill is probably not far off, right?"
