I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon-Chapter 292 - 137: The Fairy’s Desire! Brother, do I look pretty? _3

Ling Ningzhi’s face was a bit hot, feeling like all eyes were on her. Clearly, she was the one forced into this, why did it seem like she had done something wrong?

It’s not right...

Chen Mo didn’t use Contractual Power to order her earlier; she went over and hugged him on her own...

Ling Ningzhi felt her mind in chaos, lips moving, wanting to say something, but Chen Mo had already turned away.

"Dad, Mom, I’m back."

Chen Mo approached the two elders.

"You brat, you nearly scared your mother to death!"

He Yuzhi grabbed his arm, checking him with concern while complaining he was too reckless, Chen Mo responded with a bitter smile, not daring to argue.

Chen Zhuo still showed no expression, got up and left directly.

As he passed by Chen Mo, he paused, raised a hand and patted his shoulder, saying deeply, "Well done."

Chen Mo: "..."

Even when he solved the Zhou Family Case, making great contributions to the Imperial Consort Faction, his father never praised him once.

This time it’s as if the sun has come out from the west.

"It’s rare to have such a lively day, since Mo’er is back, let’s all stay for a simple meal... Afu, go notify the kitchen to prepare." He Yuzhi said.

"Yes."

Chen Fu left eagerly.

Gu Manzhi didn’t plan to stay long originally, but Yu’er immediately accepted, saying sweetly, "Thank you, madam. It’s better to comply than to show disdain."

"..."

Gu Manzhi was a bit helpless.

This girl really had no awareness of being a woman of the dust...

However, she hadn’t seen Chen Mo for a long time, and was reluctant to leave so quickly, she gracefully bowed, "Thank you for your kindness, madam, we shall impose on you."

...

In the dining hall.

The round sandalwood table was filled with delicacies, perfect in color, aroma, and taste.

But compared to the charming girls, the food paled in comparison.

The atmosphere at the dining table was somewhat awkward, except for Shen Zhixia who was focused on eating. The expressions of the other three were a bit uncomfortable, especially since they had once been squeezed into a wardrobe...

After sitting for a while, Chen Zhuo and He Yuzhi found an excuse to leave.

"Zhixia, eat more."

Chen Mo was giving Shen Zhixia more food, but suddenly felt something. He looked down, and saw a small foot in black fishnet stockings from across the table reaching over, gently rubbing against his calf.

No need to guess, the only one bold enough was surely Yu’er.

Yu’er’s cheeks were slightly red, smiling obsessively, her exquisite feet continuously climbing upwards...

Chen Mo naturally wasn’t one to suffer losses, secretly unleashing fiery tentacles, counterattacking along her fishnet stocking wrapped long legs.

"Mm~"

Yu’er let out a soft hum, her eyes almost overflowing with mist.

Sitting nearby, Ling Ningzhi sensed something unusual, a Divine Sense probe made her cheeks quickly flush red, she cursed inwardly.

These two were really outrageous...

Looking at Shen Zhixia who only had eyes for the food, she shook her head helplessly, whispered, "Zhixia, be mindful."

"What treat? Where is it?"

"...Forget it, keep eating..."

"Oh."

Shen Zhixia’s cheeks were puffed up like a hamster.

She really was starving, during the days Chen Mo stayed in the palace, she couldn’t eat or drink, even her bust had grown a bit...

"I’ve eaten enough, take your time everyone..."

Ling Ningzhi really couldn’t watch any longer, just as she was about to get up and leave, her body suddenly stiffened, her eyes widened in disbelief looking at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo’s expression was indifferent, he transmitted, "The master hasn’t finished eating, yet you’re eager to leave the table, don’t you know the rules?"

"..."

Ling Ningzhi’s body trembled slightly, the blush spreading from her snow-white skin like winter plum blossoms blooming in an icy world.

She had just thought that he had grown a conscience, turns out he’s as hateful as ever!

What a big bad guy!

With the fiery tentacles moving deftly like arms, as the temperature gradually increased, Ling Ningzhi’s body trembled even more intensely, her breath became erratic, her gaze slowly losing focus.

"Stop..."

Using the last bit of her reason, she transmitted, "Zhixia is still beside, don’t..."

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow and transmitted, "How should you speak when requesting the master?"

Ling Ningzhi’s face flushed deeply, her chest heaving unevenly, she stammered in transmission, "Master, please stop, Zhi’er can’t take it anymore..."

"Alright."

Chen Mo swiftly retracted the Glazed Flame.

?

Ling Ningzhi’s expression froze, her dreamy eyes showing some confusion.

Is it over just like that? When did this scoundrel become so easy to talk to?

Clearly, she should feel relieved, but instead, she felt extremely uncomfortable, as if the dazzling fireworks about to bloom in the night sky suddenly extinguished at the last moment.

An inexplicable sense of loss and melancholy filled her heart, accompanied by an indescribable irritability.

"What’s happening to me?"

Ling Ningzhi felt uneasy, her legs unconsciously closing tightly...

...

After the meal, everyone said their goodbyes one after another.

Ling Ningzhi didn’t even have time to bid farewell to He Yuzhi and left as if escaping.

Before leaving, Gu Manzhi leaned close to Chen Mo’s ear and softly told him to take good care of his health, promising a surprise for him the next time they visit the Imperial Music Bureau.

Seeing her slightly embarrassed yet proud demeanor, Chen Mo couldn’t help but feel some anticipation.

Inside the bedroom.

Chen Mo sat cross-legged on the meditation mat, taking out the crimson pearl.

It seemed to contain an endless sea of blood, even drawing the Qi-Blood within his body, a strong desire naturally arising in his heart.

This pearl can devour Essence Blood, inherently evil; if not refined, it might even backfire.

However, this posed no problem for Chen Mo.

[Acquired Heavenly Rank Middle Grade Magical Treasure: Xuanxue Guiyuan Pearl.]

[Would you like to use it immediately?]

"Yes."

Catalyzing his mind, Chen Mo watched as the Blood Pearl rose into the air, transforming into a blood light that entered his Dantian.

Bang!

A muffled sound echoed from within his body.

Inexhaustible Essence Blood surged forward, as if a river breaking through a dam, crashing turbulently through his meridians!

Chen Mo’s body suddenly expanded, his skin turning crimson and scorching hot, veins bulging like twisted dragons!

Without the Array suppression of the Cultivation Room, controlling the agitated Qi-Blood became significantly harder.

Fortunately, his experience was vast, skillfully using True Yuan to contract his meridians while operating the Xuantian Canglong Transformation, pouring Qi-Blood continuously into the Critical Acupoints.

If the Leopard Bloodfire Elixir was a trickling mountain brook, then the Xuanxue Guiyuan Pearl was the mighty rushing Canglan River!

It took only five breaths to fill the first acupoint.

Then the second...

The third...

An hour later, the Labor Palace Acupoint, Wind Pool, Guanyuan Acupoint, Central Chest Point, four major acupoints were completely filled! Had he grinded with Alchemy Pills like before, it would have taken more than a month!

Continuously directing Qi-Blood to attack the acupoints brought a tearing pain throughout his meridians, yet Chen Mo couldn’t hide his excitement. Feeling the incomparably strong power within his body, he almost felt like he could punch through mountains!

Of course, this was merely an illusion from the rapid power increase.

Chen Mo retrieved a small alchemy cauldron from his Sumeru Bag, casually squeezing it, a metallic screech sounded, as the hard crimson copper material turned soft like dough in his hands!

Then he forcibly bent it back, restoring it to its original shape!

Not only did his strength surge, but his physical toughness also greatly increased, as if reborn!

Currently, the Xuanxue Guiyuan Pearl hovered silently in his Dantian, having consumed less than half of the Essence Blood, meaning he could now activate the power of four acupoints simultaneously without fearing weakness!

"Truly a good thing!"

Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction.

However, as the acupoints continued to open, the Qi-Blood’s demands would exponentially increase, requiring him to find higher-grade Blood Pills, and store them in the Xuanxue Guiyuan Pearl for preparedness.

"Perhaps I should ask Ling Ningzhi to get me some alchemy recipes?"

He pondered, rubbing his chin.

Knock knock knock—

Just then, the door knocked.

"Come in," Chen Mo said.

The door opened, and Shen Zhixia walked in.

She was wrapped in a robe, her hair still slightly damp, as though she had just finished bathing.

Turning to close the door tightly, even bolting it, seeing her cautious manner made Chen Mo chuckle, "Why are you being so secretive..."

His words trailed off, his expression turning somewhat blank.

Only to see Shen Zhixia slowly walking towards him, grasping her collar and pulling the robe open to either side, revealing an absolutely stunning sight.

She bit her lips, her eyes flickering, voice carrying a slight tremor:

"Brother, do I look good?"
