I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon

Chapter 555 - 215: Yu’er’s True Identity! Sister Cover…Within the Cover! _3

As the concubine of the former Minister of War, she has indeed seen much of the world.

Just a flick of a finger brought results comparable to those of top physicians—Mr. Chen’s capabilities are truly extraordinary!

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Liu Miaozhi bowed respectfully.

"No need to mention it, just a trivial matter," Chen Mo said blandly.

"Mr. Chen, please do not blame Yu’er for this matter. It was I who held her back..." Liu Miaozhi whispered.

Chen Mo waved his hand and interrupted, "We’ll discuss this later. Let’s leave here first."

"Leave? But..."

Liu Miaozhi glanced at a few instructors, her throat involuntarily moved.

It seemed the various punishments from before left a considerable psychological trauma on her.

Chen Mo said mildly, "Don’t worry. With me here, no one will dare trouble you, and if you stay here, Yu’er will also be unsettled."

"Well... alright, as long as it doesn’t trouble you, my Lord."

Seeing Chen Mo had spoken to this point, Liu Miaozhi could no longer refuse. Supported by Yu’er, she walked towards the door.

Chen Mo also lifted his legs and walked out of the room, not saying a word to the instructors nor showing any interest in them.

Xu Ling’er followed behind them. As she reached the doorway, she suddenly remembered something and turned back, snatching the sachet from Wan Fang’s hand. After spitting, she briskly ran out.

Once they had left, the room fell silent.

The instructors finally breathed a sigh of relief, their backs already soaked in cold sweat.

"That was Mr. Chen just now?"

"Isn’t he the Deputy Thousand Households of the Sky Scale Guard? Why would he come to our back street?"

"Luckily, I didn’t touch Yu’er, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable..."

Seeing Instructor Dong, who had fainted from the pain, their scalps tingled slightly.

"Chief instructor, what do you think we should do?" one instructor asked in a whisper.

Wan Fang, whose sealed mouth had recovered, swallowed and said, "This matter is beyond our involvement. We must report it to Lord Fengluan immediately..."

After speaking, she quickly headed to the door.

However, just as she reached the door, it closed with a bang, refusing to open no matter how hard she tried.

"Strange, what’s going on?"

"Did I give you permission to leave?" A soft and bone-chilling female voice rang out.

?!

Wan Fang suddenly turned to look.

There stood a woman in a plain dress with her arms folded, a faint smile on her face.

The woman hadn’t left all along, yet everyone had unconsciously ignored her presence, failing to notice her at all!

Gu Manzhi played with the green light on her fingertips, softly saying, "The lord can’t be bothered with you, but I’m different. I have all the time and energy to play with you at length... Well, you were the loudest earlier, so why not start with you."

She raised a hand and pointed it, and the green light flashed as Wan Fang’s body contorted uncontrollably, the sound of crackling bones sharp enough to make teeth ache.

"Ahhhhh!"

Chen Mo and the others reached the courtyard, hearing the piercing screams from inside. Xu Ling’er paused, a glint of pleasure flickering in her eyes.

Liu Miaozhi looked at Chen Mo’s calm demeanor, her expression complex and reverent.

"Let’s go. We can leave this to Xiao Gu."

"All according to Mr. Chen’s arrangement."

...

...

Soon, guards were drawn to the commotion here.

Yet the door seemed sealed as if glued shut, unable to open, leaving them to wait outside for those within to emerge.

An hour passed before the screaming ceased.

One guard stepped forward, tentatively pushing.

Creaaak—

The door slowly opened, revealing a hellish and bloody scene that made him gasp and weak-kneed.

"Wan, Instructor Wan?!"

Wan Fang’s body twisted like a dead tree, lying on the ground, breathing faintly and trembling, "Quick... get Lord Fengluan..."

...

...

The Cloudwater Hall.

In the bedroom, a white-haired old man sat cross-legged, palms shining brightly, over Liu Miaozhi and Xu Ling’er.

Roughly half an hour later, the old man cut off the light and slowly opened his eyes.

"What is the situation?" Chen Mo asked.

The old man bowed and said, "Reporting to Mr. Chen, both the madam and miss have accumulated many ailments due to overwork... especially this madam, who has suffered persistent emotional repression, obstructed blood flow and issues with the heart and spleen."

"However, it’s not exceptionally severe. I will prescribe two remedies, and results will be seen after a period of conditioning."

Only upon hearing these words did Yu’er relax her tightly wound body.

Chen Mo nodded and said, "Thank you, sir."

"No need to be so formal, my Lord."

The elderly physician finished writing the prescriptions, explained the precautions, then took his leave.

Yu’er first escorted the doctor out and prepared clean clothes, then had the maid take the two for a bath... After all these tasks, only she and Chen Mo were left in the room.

Chen Mo sat in his chair, looking at her with a half-smile.

Yu’er tangled her fingers and cautiously said, "Master, are you still angry with me?"

"I’m not angry, merely curious," Chen Mo said, playing with the teacup and chuckling, "Should I call you Yu’er or Ruoyan?"

Yu’er stiffened at this, whispering, "Master, you knew already..."

"I only just realized,"

Chen Mo said, crossing his legs, "Logically, Yu’er’s soul should have dispersed, unable to hold any sentiments for the Xu Family, yet your attitude towards Liu is distinct... Xu Ruoyan, that’s the name of her deceased daughter?"

Yu’er remained silent for a moment before saying, "Initially, I didn’t know who I was either..."
