I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon

Chapter 1225 - 463: Empress: I’m Done with You! Breaking the Great Array, Absorbing the Origin! (Part 3)

"Could he have gone mad?"

Chen Mo muttered to himself.

But now wasn’t the time to think about that. Several streaks of light were approaching from afar, suggesting that with the barrier broken and the magnetic field restored, the survivors had sensed the location of the World Gate.

Chen Mo turned to the crowd and said, "It’s not safe to stay here long, let’s leave first."

"Woohoo, we can finally leave this damned place!"

"I almost thought I was really going to die here!"

"Fortunately, we have Chen with us..."

The disciples cheered with joy, some even bursting into tears of happiness on the spot.

Zhu Huai and the others also breathed a real sigh of relief. The danger of this Secret Realm far exceeded expectations; it could be said that without Chen Mo, they would have had no chance of surviving and getting out!

Jiang Zhiyun deeply recognized the Sect Master’s foresight —

Appointing Chen Mo as a Guest Elder was truly not a loss!

Just as they were about to enter the World Gate, Sikong Zuiyue flew off into the distance, intending to take the bodies of the Taoist Lord and the Martial Saint out with her, but as she touched them, the corpses instantly turned to ash and scattered away.

Without the blessing of Origin Power, they were no different from ordinary bones.

After a thousand years, they had long weathered and completely disappeared into the world.

"..."

From the billowing black mist, it was clear that Sikong Zuiyue was in a foul mood.

Was all this risking life and limb just for nothing?

Forget about the imperial body, she didn’t even get any ashes!

But at this point, there was nothing she could do, so she dejectedly followed everyone out of the Secret Realm.

...

...

Outside the Secret Realm, by Mountain Hidden Lake.

Yu Youhan sat cross-legged, motionless.

If not for the faint rise and fall of her breath, she would almost be indistinguishable from a dead person.

Huo Wuya stood with his hands behind his back, frowning, "It’s been so long and there’s still no movement. Could something have gone wrong? Should I go check?"

Ji Hongxiu slightly furrowed her brows. Although she was also a bit worried, she knew that Chen Mo and Yu Youhan had a special bond, so she assumed nothing should go wrong.

"Since Yu Youhan told us to wait here, let’s wait a bit longer. Besides, it’s not wise to clash with the court right now."

"Okay." Huo Wuya nodded.

"You better bring Chen Mo back safely, don’t disappoint me..."

Looking at that breathtakingly beautiful face, a complex expression flashed beneath Ji Hongxiu’s eyes.

With Yu Youhan in a state of Divine Soul separation, she was practically defenseless. It was the perfect opportunity to eliminate this female demon.

"This woman is really bold..."

"If it weren’t for Chen Mo still being in danger, I would definitely teach you a lesson!"

Thinking of the beating she received at Tianlan Mountain from the other party, rage filled her.

Though truly killing the other was unrealistic, relieving some anger seemed achievable... With that in mind, she quietly stretched out her right hand, grabbed Yu Youhan’s cheek, and began to rub it vigorously.

"That’s for hitting me!"

"That’s for taking my man!"

"Just wait, sooner or later I will surpass you, and then you’ll have to call me grand-aunt respectfully!"

Ji Hongxiu muttered to herself.

This seemingly childish act, however, brought an indescribable sense of satisfaction to her heart.

"Feel vindicated?" a soft voice rang out.

"So vindicated..."

Ji Hongxiu replied instinctively.

Then suddenly realizing, her expression stiffened, and she slowly looked down.

Only to see that Yu Youhan, at some unknown point, had opened her eyes, her green eyes staring at her.

"Ji Hongxiu, are you tired of living?"

"..."
