As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall was in an uproar.
No one spoke.
Their hearts were extremely shocked.
In fact, Empress Ziwei had her own selfish motives; she did this merely to allow Fang Yu to ascend to power legitimately. If he could overcome the hundred levels of restriction, then he could directly assume the position of a Hall Master of the Five Great Divine Palaces. As for absorbing the power of the Divine Statue and becoming one of her close aides, it was just a matter of time.
If he couldn't get past the hundred levels of restriction, it would simply mean that his abilities were still not sufficient to climb to such a high position immediately.
He could only progress slowly.
In the hall, there was silence.
At this moment, the maid Xia'er said, "Ladies and gentlemen, feel free to speak your minds. Today... Her Majesty, the Empress, will be exceptionally merciful. Pardon all your offenses!"
Everyone was shocked.
