Chapter 245: Chapter 125 Empress’s Counterattack! Surrender, Dog-like Lackey! (6K)_3

Chen Mo was slightly stunned, "You two are...?"

Seeing him come out, the two shifted their gaze away and stepped forward simultaneously.

"His Highness has an edict..."

"The Empress has an order..."

"..."

Chen Mo felt a bit of a headache and waved his hand, "How about one of you at a time?"

"I am here under the Eastern Palace Decree. Director Xu, do you not understand the hierarchy?" Sun Senior Palace Lady said coldly.

Xu Qingyi remained calm and said blandly, "The Empress’s matter is more urgent, Sun Senior Palace Lady should wait."

"How rude!"

"I am usually very rude, but you will get used to it over time."

"You...!"

Neither of them was willing to back down, and they seemed ready to start pulling each other’s hair. Chen Mo resolutely took out two tokens from his bosom, one engraved with a Golden Phoenix, the other with a Purple Phoenix.

"I order you two to shut up."

"..."

Words were cut off that abruptly as both hurriedly bowed in salute.

Chen Mo looked at Sun Senior Palace Lady, "You are older, so you speak first."

Sun Senior Palace Lady took a deep breath, straightened her body, and said, "His Highness has ordered Hundred Households Chen to prepare for the Heavenly Human Martial Exam in half a month. If you dare refuse, you’ll be dragged to the Castration Room!"

?

Heavenly Human Martial Exam?

A bit of recollection...

Chen Mo wasn’t too interested in such contests; with that effort, he might as well just find a backdoor.

However, since the Empress had already ordered it and even used a veiled threat, he had no choice...

"Alright, I understand, Sun Senior Palace Lady, you may leave now."

Sun Senior Palace Lady glanced at Xu Qingyi, flicked her sleeve, and left gracefully.

Chen Mo put away the tokens and asked, "Director Xu, what does the Empress want with me?"

Xu Qingyi said faintly, "The Empress heard you had a conflict in the Imperial Music Bureau and worried it was the thieves from last time, so she wanted me to check it out and summon you to the palace."

Tsk, there’s the difference!

The Empress is indeed kind to me!

"Alright, let’s be on our way." Chen Mo said.

Xu Qingyi didn’t bring a sedan chair; she put her hand on his shoulder, stepped forward, and suddenly, they appeared over a hundred meters away.

The feeling was special, not of speed, but as if the ground beneath had shortened.

If Chen Mo went all out, he might catch up, but he could never manage it so effortlessly.

"Not surprising for the Empress’s personal female officer, your skill is truly extraordinary."

The sensation of seemingly traversing through space was somewhat unsettling for Chen Mo, who furrowed his brow and wrapped an arm around her slender waist.

Xu Qingyi stiffened, her tone slightly flustered, "What are you doing?"

Chen Mo replied honestly, "I get motion sickness."

"..."

Xu Qingyi turned her head aside, her ears tinged red, yet she did not push him away. freewebnøvel.coɱ

In mere moments, they arrived in front of Frozen Sky Palace. Chen Mo released his grip and stood up straight.

"Thank you, Director Xu..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Qingyi had already vanished.

Chen Mo shook his head and stepped up the stairs.

Entering the gate and walking through the palace corridor, he arrived in the inner hall.

Yu Youhan, dressed in a plain woven long dress, was reclining on the Consort’s Seat, the hem like drifting clouds draping down, outlining an enchanting curve.

Her turquoise eyes were gently closed, looking leisurely and cozy, like a Persian cat taking a nap.

Chen Mo bowed and said, "This humble one greets the Empress."

Yu Youhan’s voice was clear and crisp, like a spring in the mountain, "Have you been injured?"

Chen Mo shook his head, "Not a scratch."

Yu Youhan asked again, "And the others?"

Chen Mo replied, "Not a complete body to be found."

Yu Youhan nodded with satisfaction, lifted her legs up, and gestured for Chen Mo to sit down.

Chen Mo came forward, seated himself on the other side of the Consort’s Seat, and naturally cradled her exquisite feet.

The delicately sculpted little feet gently curled, with slender and exquisite anklebones. Faint veins could be seen on the instep, resembling delicate blue and white porcelain with intricate ice patterns, and the jade-like toes were as lovely as tender bamboo shoots, adding an extra charm.

"The Empress’s feet, I never get tired of playing with them."

Chen Mo gently kneaded, the smooth sensation irresistible.

Yu Youhan, long accustomed to it, didn’t object, only inquiring, "Do you know what identity they had?"

Chen Mo replied, "They were two protectors of the Gu God Sect, Fourth-Level Mages, and not the same group as those who previously attacked me."

"Gu God Sect?"

Yu Youhan furrowed her dark eyebrows.

Recalling the time Chen Mo was secretly cursed, a chill flashed in her eyes; her voice was icy, "Tricksters, never-ending greed. The last time’s account isn’t settled, yet they dare come to Tiandu City again?"

Chen Mo shook his head, "This time, they didn’t come for me, but just happened to have a conflict with a General of the Ding Fire Department, and I caught them by chance."

Apparently feeling a bit uncomfortable, Yu Youhan adjusted her posture, stretching her waist, her curves revealed, and said:

"The Moon Brilliance Sect is closely aligned with Gu God Sect, seemingly wanting to leverage their power against this palace... With your current upward momentum, being at the center of the whirlpool, it’s easy for you to become a breakthrough point, so be cautious in everything."

Actually, I had already won over the Moon Brilliance Sect’s Holy Daughter, who has opened many doors for me...

Chen Mo naturally dared not say this, nodding, "I will remember."

"By the way, the Empress just ordered me to participate in the Heavenly Human Martial Exam."

"Heavenly Human Martial Exam?"

Yu Youhan seemed disinterested, dismissively, "Just child’s play, nothing interesting. If she wants you to go, just go, and if you win, there might be prizes or something."

"Yes."

Chen Mo complied.

Then he started to focus wholeheartedly on massaging her small feet.

His left hand pushed and kneaded gently from the heel up, soft yet precise in pressure, while the fingertips of his right hand stroked along the arch, light and steady, perfectly balanced.

As blood circulation enhanced, the skin on her instep turned slightly pink, making her exquisite feet even more charming.
