Chapter 283: Chapter 135: Empress’s Baby’s "Reward"! Plumber Xiao Chen! (6K)

Boom——

A thunderous roar, dark clouds cover the sky.

Ink-like dark clouds surge like sea waves, as if ready to crush the firmament.

Suddenly, a dazzling lightning slashes through the sky like a silver snake, illuminating the enormous creature behind the clouds.

Yellow vertical pupils suspended beyond the sky, shining like sun and moon, its body hidden in boundless chaos, any living being before it appears insignificant as dust.

The ferocious crocodile-like mouth slowly opens, resembling a black hole, shadows quickly spread, covering the entire land, engulfing everything in sight, plunging it into endless darkness.

Out from chaos comes the Azure Dragon, blood mouth devouring lone star!

[Host comprehends Daoist Charm ’Dragon Devouring Star.’]

[Proficiency inherited synchronously, current proficiency is Small Success (80/500).]

Chen Mo emerged from his profound insight, the earlier scene seemed so real, especially those pale yellow vertical pupils—the majestic presence hidden within chaos seemed to truly be gazing at him!

Between the Spirit Platform, the Golden Body Miniature sits as the stars shine behind.

It seemed, perhaps by illusion, that this starry sky appeared slightly brighter than before.

The Golden Body Miniature sits in the void, clad in starlight, exuding a sacred aura.

This sensation transcending the mundane is somewhat similar to Shi Yun, yet not entirely; it lacks some compassion but carries more domineering majesty.

"Azure Dragon Shattering Star Power no longer restricts itself to techniques, but instead integrates Daoist Charm into True Yuan, imbuing every move with star-shattering force."

"The drawback is the significant consumption of True Yuan; if used simultaneously with Dragon Shocking Slash, it might drain me in one strike."

Chen Mo felt the surging power within, his urgency to break through the Fourth-Level Divine Sea Stage grew stronger.

Knock, knock, knock——

At this moment, a knock on the door was heard.

"Come in."

The door opened, a group of palace servants filed in.

They carried trays with various fruits and pastries, and two lifted a bathing tub, with steam rising, permeating a faint medicinal fragrance.

Chen Mo was momentarily surprised, "This is..."

The small palace servant who had previously served him medicine said, "This is a prescription for a medicine bath from Li Yuanshi, it can invigorate and relax muscles, alleviate pain, and greatly benefit Mr. Chen’s recovery."

Chen Mo nodded, "Leave it here, I’ll soak myself later."

The small palace servant softly said, "His Highness instructed us to take good care of Mr. Chen, insisting that we must assist Mr. Chen with changing and bathing."

?

Chen Mo furrowed his brow, "Isn’t this quite inappropriate?"

Palace rules were strict, forbidding unnecessary contact between palace servants and external officials, otherwise it would be seen as undermining imperial dignity, causing quite a stir if word spread.

"These are His Highness’s orders, please don’t make it difficult for the servants." The small palace servant pleaded pitifully.

The others also hung their heads, seemingly frightened by the Empress’s anger earlier.

Mr. Chen was physically weak now, if anything went wrong, they risked sharing his fate!

Chen Mo found himself without options, shaking his head, "I, as a man, don’t mind, as long as you don’t feel embarrassed."

The small palace servant’s expression lit up, smilingly said, "Of course we don’t mind, we’ll assist Mr. Chen in changing."

Chen Mo stood up, allowing her and another palace servant to step forward, untying the waist sash, removing the white silk long robe and the bottom-layer underwear, revealing a masculine and sturdy physique before them.

The palace servants’ cheeks flushed in unison, momentarily unsure where to look.

They usually tended to the Empress’s daily needs, never witnessing a scene like this.

Moreover, Mr. Chen appeared like a refined scholar, yet he was so physically robust?

Chen Mo stepped into the tub, immersing himself in the medicinal liquid, his whole body’s pores relaxing, the rich medicinal power seeping through the skin, nourishing muscles and bones.

This medicine bath’s Qi Blood Power was far stronger than the Leopard Bloodfire Elixir.

He activated the Xuantian Canglong Transformation, absorbing the medicinal power into his body, continuously injecting into dried critical acupoints.

A palace maid knelt beside, occasionally feeding him fruits.

While the other two gently moved their small hands over his firm muscles.

Though utterly embarrassed, they meticulously attended him, leaving no corner untouched...

Rub, rub, rub, rub...

"..."

Chen Mo’s breathing suddenly became erratic, his Qi-Blood surged uncontrollably.

Who taught you to scrub this way?

Was the Empress intentionally testing him?

Splish—

Water splashed from the tub, drenching a few of them.

?!

The palace servants’ eyes were round glasses, lips parted slightly, their cheeks flushed with astonishment as if witnessing a frightening sight.

"Enough of this, any further washing would be impolite." Chen Mo sighed in resignation.

"...The, the servant shall retreat for now."

The palace servants grew restless, hurriedly stood and retreated.

...

...

The sky gradually darkened.

Ningde Palace was brightly lit.

The Empress, dressed in a silk nightgown, lay on the bed, legs gently swaying, skin smooth as snow, resembling fine mutton fat jade.

"It seems Zhu’er may already harbor feelings for Chen Mo."

"Jinyun is being quite absurd, not stopping her, and even encouraging her to become a concubine for Chen Mo..."

Thinking of this, the Empress felt somewhat troubled.

She actually understood Lin Jingzhu’s mindset.

Chen Mo is handsome, solves major cases, is exceptional among peers, and can cure the long-ailing Chill Toxin... feeling charmed by such a man is natural.

But the issue is, the person Chen Mo loves is me!

The Empress sighed softly, muttering to herself:

"Does it seem like I’m competing with Zhu’er for a man?"

"No, clearly I’m being forced into this!"
