I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1362

Chapter 1362: Chapter 526: Empress or Princess, Pick One? Only Children Make Choices...

As soon as Chen Mo’s words fell, the hall was plunged into dead silence.

The ministers stood there in a daze, unable to react for a moment.

Jiang Wangye, Qi Kaihai, Yuan Junfeng... these names were all too familiar to them.

The first two were core figures of prominent families, among the pre-determined heirs with the potential to take over their entire families in the future.

And Yuan Junfeng was the second-in-command of the Demon Suppression Department, having reached First Grade in earlier years; he was one of the most formidable figures across the entire Jiu Zhou!

They were all killed by Chen Mo?!

"Wasn’t this the work of the Demon Clan? What does it have to do with the noble families?" wondered Imperial Censor Zhao Ge, moving his throat in confusion. "And why would they target Mr. Chen?"

"Those demons were merely a guise, mainly intended to trigger the Demon Extermination Crossbow to strike the drill ground, preventing Commander Ling from reconstructing his Dao Foundation," Chen Mo explained. "As for Jiang Wangye and the others’ ultimate goal, it was the Eight Desolates Demon Extermination Array Map within the Demon Suppression Department!"

"Array Map?"

The crowd looked bewildered.

Only a few suspected something, their eyes flickering with astonishment.

Lv Huaiyu’s eyebrows trembled slightly, and his heart was in turmoil!

The Jiang Family’s style was always to seek benefits and avoid harm; they wouldn’t take such great risks for the Array Map unless instructed by Wu Lie, but what use could Wu Lie have for the Array Map?

What could this mean for him?

He had anticipated Wu Lie would make a move but didn’t expect it to be so swift!

Nor did he expect,

Chen Mo’s counterattack to be so fierce!

"The common folk only know this Eightfold Exorcism Array can identify demons, but few realize its essence is to anchor the Dragon Vein and consolidate the nation’s fortune!"

"And the noble families led by Jiang Wangye sought to seize the Array Map, destroy the great formation, and bring chaos to our Great Yuan Empire!"

"Upon realizing their intentions, I immediately rushed to the Demon Suppression Department to stop them, only to be ambushed midway. I fought desperately to carve a path through!"

"This is a grave crime of treason, and I earnestly request Your Highness to thoroughly investigate this matter!"

Chen Mo bowed deeply, his voice resounding powerfully.

Since Wu Lie likes to play dirty tricks, why not lay everything bare, labeling him as a traitor?

After all, the old man wouldn’t dare show his face; whatever is said, he would have to endure!

It’s a perfect chance to capture those remnants of the noble families all at once!

"..."

The Empress pursed her lips, her expression peculiar.

A disturbance this significant certainly required an explanation.

Just now, when faced with the ministers’ pressing questions, she pondered how to explain it, not expecting Chen Mo to turn the tables and label the current Emperor as a rebel...

This young man sure has guts!

"This..."
