I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35: Chapter 32: The Empress's Tactics! The Empress Smells So Good... (2 in 1 Chapter)_2

As long as Chen Mo is willing, he can immediately promote "Sleeve Green Dragon" to the "Proficient" level.

But there is no need.

"The higher the level of Martial Arts, the more difficult it is to improve. It's too wasteful to invest True Spirit prematurely; it's better to level up by cutting down more enemies when possible."

"And it's also necessary to keep some True Spirit on hand, just in case."

That night, while tracking the Rat Bride, had it not been for the remaining True Spirit that was just enough to upgrade Wind and Thunder Release, it might not have been possible to catch that Demon Creature.

Had the Rat Bride chosen a different target and successfully transformed into an Evil Spirit, the outcome would have been unpredictable.

"In addition, there is the Divine Skill bestowed upon me by the Empress..."

Divine Skills can also be upgraded, but only with Dao Essence Crystals.

"Soul Capturing" is currently at the Primary Divine Power level, and upgrading would only require one Dao Essence Crystal.

"This thing is much harder to come by than True Spirit."

"Right, I forgot to check the reward for the Favorability Rating."

A thought crossed Chen Mo's mind and the notification text materialized before his eyes:

["Li Yuan's" Favorability Rating has reached the threshold, unlocking the first stage of rewards.]

[Obtained a special item: Dao Essence Crystal.]

"Feels good."

The corner of Chen Mo's mouth curled upwards.

Although the process was somewhat absurd, the result was quite good... Boys who love spanking never have too bad luck!

...

Thump thump thump.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the butler Afu came from outside:

"Young Master, there are visitors from the palace."

"Oh?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow. "Could it be that Director Xu has come looking for me?"

Stepping out of the room and into the courtyard, Chen Mo saw that everyone from the Chen Mansion had gathered there, but the person standing before them was not Xu Qingyi, but rather an old eunuch with graying temples.

Dressed in a blue satin robe, ornamented with motifs of sea waves, sunlit mountains, and drifting clouds, with golden python embroidery stitched on both sleeves and the chest area.

Upon seeing Chen Mo approach, the old eunuch sized him up and exclaimed, "Our house has long heard that General Chen is a paragon of virtue, a true dragon among men. Seeing you today, you truly are fresh and refined, transcending worldly bounds, a dashing figure carved from jade."

Chen Mo was caught off guard by the torrent of flattery.

So good with idioms, are you studying for graduate school?

Chen Zhuo glanced at him and spoke out, "This is Eunuch Jin, the Golden Crow, Chief Steward and also serves as Imperial Chamberlain."

Chen Mo understood in a second.

So it was someone from the Empress.

"Golden Crow? Might as well call him Mr. Sun."

Chen Mo muttered to himself, then cupped his hands and said, "So it's Eunuch Jin, I've long admired your reputation."

Eunuch Jin said with a smile, "General Chen has just cracked the Barbarian Slave Case and slain the Tenth Sky Demon, saving the people of Tongling County from calamity; truly an illustrious merit as towering as hills and mountains!"

Chen Mo replied with neither arrogance nor obsequiousness, "Eunuch Jin is too kind. This matter was not the work of one individual; General Li is also indispensable, as are those ten Assistant Officers. The detailed list has already been submitted to the Government."

"To shoulder responsibilities without presumption, to achieve without dwelling on them."

"Good, very good."
