I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803: Chapter 300: Chen Mo Saves the Monarch! Kissing the Princess in Public?!

There were many people around, worried about causing a commotion, Chu Yanli did not mention Wu Lie, he simply said, "Jiulong Platform has been tampered with, someone wants to take advantage of the grand sacrificial day to harm the Crown Prince."

"Who would dare do such a brazen thing?"

"No need to say, it must be the Demon Clan’s doing!"

"That doesn’t seem right, where did the Demon Clan get the Red Sand? And how did they bury it under the Capital City and the temples? If they had such capability, they wouldn’t be stuck in that godforsaken Desolate Domain, would they?"

"The Capital City is protected by a grand array, the Demon Clan cannot set foot here; to accomplish such a grand undertaking, there must be inside collaborators! And this collaborator’s identity is definitely not low, it could very well be one of us!"

"This is severing the roots of our Great Yuan!"

"Damn it, if I catch him, I swear I will skin him alive to vent my hatred!"

"Oh, come on, you were almost peeing your pants in fear earlier, and now you’re acting tough..."

The ministers were debating noisily; the atmosphere was loud and chaotic.

Lv Bojun, Zhuang Jingming, and other high-ranking officials seemed to have guessed something, their expressions were grave, remaining silent.

"Uh..."

At this moment, a groan sounded, and the Crown Prince slowly opened his eyes.

"His Highness is awake!"

"Your Highness, are you alright?!"

The ministers rushed forward in concern.

However, the Crown Prince’s eyes were dull, his face pale, staring blankly at the sky.

Eunuch Jin stepped forward, reached out to check the pulse, and after a while, said, "His Highness was merely frightened, his spirit is scattered, but his body is not seriously harmed."

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, shouting "Heaven have mercy, protect our Crown Prince."

Lv Huaiyu, standing at a distance, had a slight tremble in his eyes, loosening his tightly clenched fist within his sleeve, from which a trickle of blood seeped out from where his nails pierced the palm.

"Heaven have mercy?"

"Heh, if one were to really count on Heaven, those of us leaving here alive today wouldn’t even be thirty percent!"

Lv Huaiyu let out a cold sneer, his eyes deep like a cold pool.

"This subordinate is incompetent, please forgive me, Your Highness!"

"Please forgive us, Your Highness!"

Zeng Ge and other military officers knelt and bowed.

They failed to adequately protect the Crown Prince just now; if anything had happened to him, they would all lose their heads!

The Crown Prince regained his composure, his lips slightly moving.

"Silence!"

Eunuch Jin signaled everyone to quiet down, bent down and asked, "Your Highness, what did you say?"

The Crown Prince’s voice was hoarse and dry, "It was Chen Mo who saved me... He absorbed all the red smoke, allowing me to escape... Is he... is he still alive?"

Although he had been engulfed by the red mist and lost consciousness, strangely, he could still sense what was happening around him.

As if viewing it from a third-person perspective.

"Your Highness need not worry, Mr. Chen is well."

Eunuch Jin gestured, the crowd parted, Chen Mo stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. I am unharmed."

Seeing Chen Mo safe and sound, the Crown Prince felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders.

He then struggled to get up from the ground, stumbling into Chen Mo’s arms.

"Chen Mo, you’re still alive, that’s really wonderful..."

"So many people died this time... do you think it’s because I did something wrong and angered the heavens?"

As he spoke, the Crown Prince’s eyes reddened, tears falling like strings of broken pearls.

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "Your Highness is also a victim; no matter what, this cannot be blamed on you."

"But... but..."

The Crown Prince choked, his voice trembling, "Every year before was just fine, nothing like this ever happened, yet my first time on the platform this happened... Even though I didn’t personally kill them, they very likely died because of me..."

"Wuwuwu, it’s all my fault..."
