I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 858

The ministers were dumbfounded.

As they gazed at the towering figure, their eyes were filled with bewilderment and disbelief.

They knew that Chen Mo had just reached his young adulthood and understood what "Heavenly Master" meant, but how could combining these two be somewhat unfathomable?

Shen Xiong, Zeng Ge, and other military officers were left speechless.

They had seen Chen Mo demonstrate his abilities in the ancestral shrine before, and although his strength was formidable, he was indeed only Fourth Rank...

Yet, in just a few days, he broke through to Grandmaster?!

Moreover, he wasn't an ordinary Grandmaster—the oppression made their breathing somewhat difficult!

What kind of law is this?

Buzz—

The powerful aura triggered the defensive array of the Golden Throne Hall, illuminating the walls with brilliant light, as dragon patterns spiraled on the gold pillars, emitting terrifying roars!

The footsteps thundered outside the hall, as a group of armored guards streamed in.

"Protect the sovereign—" yelled the leading commander.

"No need," said the Empress, waving her hand.

"...Yes."

The golden-armored guards, confirming there was no threat, bowed and retreated.

Chen Mo suitably restrained his aura, the fiery wave vanished, and the hall returned to calm.

The Empress spoke nonchalantly, "In this moment of need for talent, should someone like this not be treated well? Chief Minister Zhuang, what do you think?"

The shadow of the Seven-Rib Crown covered his face, Zhuang Jingming's eyes were filled with astonishment.

A Grandmaster at twenty?

How is this possible?!

Despite his reluctance to believe, the truth was right before him.

The so-called rules were made for ordinary folks; with Chen Mo's achievements and strength, he absolutely deserved to rise abruptly!

To resist further would only be to invite trouble upon himself. Zhuang Jingming immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness is astute, wise beyond measure, perceiving even the minutest detail, far superior to my humble self!"

"So, there are no objections?"

The Empress raised her gaze to the crowd, "And what about the rest of you? On the promotion of Chen Mo to Fire Department Thousand Households, who is in favor, and who opposes?"

Even through the bamboo curtain, they could still sense the sharp gaze, causing the ministers to lower their heads wherever it touched.

If one couldn't see the situation clearly at such a time, then all their years in officialdom had truly been in vain!

Grandmasters in all of Jiu Zhou were few; moreover, he had Ultimate Venerable potential, a top-tier genius, even Fifth Grade households seemed too modest for his cultivation!

"Congratulations, Your Highness, to have obtained such a talent, truly heaven lends its aid; it is a blessing for Great Yuan!"

Feng Jinyu was the first to step out, "Thud" as he knelt on the ground, his strong voice echoing in the hall, "I congratulate Your Highness, and also celebrate on behalf of the world!"

The others came to realization, silently cursing for letting him seize the opportunity first, they quickly knelt at the golden steps.

"I congratulate Your Highness, and also celebrate on behalf of the world!"
