Chapter 7: Chapter 7 - No peace, no land grant, no compensation! _1

"The voy from the Great Qin Dynasty has arrived!" The officials quietly passed the word along, their faces marked with seriousness. Three months ago, Dawu was the leader among the five kingdoms. But overnight, the world turned upside down; now Great Qin is the strongest among them. This led to a mix of feelings among the officials, as the situation had changed so rapidly. "The Great Qin voy has arrived!" Soon, a group of people tered the Divine Martial Hall. A team of guards clad in silver fish-scale armor, each exuding an impressive aura and having reached the Soul Forge realm, escorted a young man who was walking in the front. This young man was dressed in gold scale armor and exhibited an impressive demeanor. His head held high, he radiated a sse of dragon might, reflected the gold light, and astonishingly had reached the Ninth Level of the Original Spirit. "This is the Sevth Prince of the Great Qin, Lin Ye, who at the tder age of twty-five, is a prodigious talt at the Ninth Level of the Original Spirit. Though not the Crown Prince, his mother is the currt que consort, making him a full brother to the Great Qin Crown Prince. Wh the Crown Prince ascds the throne in the future, he'll likely be the most trusted king with real power!" Upon seeing the Sevth Prince of the Great Qin, Lin Ye, the officials subtly sighed at his prowess and simultaneously realized that the Great Qin Dynasty had st heavyweight represtatives. Now it all depded on how their emperor would respond. "So you are Chu Yuan, the second-geration emperor of Dawu." After arriving at the court, Lin Ye looked at Chu Yuan but showed no courtesy. Instead, he appeared indiffert and neglected ev the most basic etiquette, oply disrespecting the Great Wu Dynasty. "Presumptuous, to dare refer to the reigning emperor by his name is disrespectful! Eunuch Wei vted his anger: "Kneel down now!" "Ha ha, I am here this time carrying the decree of the emperor, represting the emperor of my Great Qin, how can there be a reason to kneel!" Lin Ye laughed loudly, undervaluing Chu Yuan: "Moreover, our two countries are both illustrious dynasties, standing on equal footing. It's just that your currt national strgth in Dawu is far less than that of my Great Qin." "Are the people of Great Qin all savages? Perhaps they don't ev know how to write the words for etiquette." Chu Yuan's eyes sparkled like electricity. "Hmm! Little Emperor of Dawu, I've be waiting outside the Divine Martial Hall since three days ago; yet you delayed me for three days. This has greatly dissatisfied and angered the voy of my Great Qin. If you want to quell my anger, that will have." Lin Ye spoke domineeringly. "Oh? So what are you going to do about it?" asked Chu Yuan. "I won't waste words with you. This time, I have brought the Edict of Great Qin. It contains various demands of my Great Qin. Sign on it, and I promise that Dawu will joy one year of peace. Otherwise, be prepared to face the war." As Lin Ye was speaking, a guard in fish-scale armor at his side handed over a bound edict. "Read." "Your Great Wu has only Princess Chxi left, and the prince to be married is me, to sure a year of peace for your Great Wu. Naturally, I undertake this role of groom reluctantly. Wh I return, my brothers will inevitably ridicule me." Lin Ye looked wronged. Are there only leftovers? What did he regard Princess Chxi as, some leftovers from a vegetable market? "You overthink it. About ceding land, paying compsation, and providing a royal bride, I will not cede a single piece of land, pay a single pny, or sd my sister, Princess Chxi to your Great Shg Dynasty. I will not agree to any of your Great Shg Dynasty's demands." Chu Yuan grabbed the scroll containing the demands of the Great Shg Nation and tore it in two. "Ding! The host has chos option two, reward of one hundred Destiny Points, completion of the Iron Bones achievemt." "You've torn the national letter, this means war!" Upon seeing this, Lin Ye blazed with fury. "My million-strong Great Shg army has already gathered on the southern border, waiting only for my order to attack. Not only that, the nations of Dalu, Dachg, and Daqi also have millions of troops marching south. Moreover, countless more troops are coming. Breaking through the capital of your Great Wu will only be a matter of months!" Lin Ye sneered, "How will your unyielding spirit help you in the face of absolute power? There is no point." "We cannot withstand a united attack from these four nations. The prest state of Great Wu cannot bear this kind of war," the Grand Marshall said, "I urge you to reconsider. Do not danger the foundation of Great Wu due to a single momt of impulse." "Offering royal brides and compsation is not a problem, but I think ceding three provinces and fifte prefectures is too much. How about ceding one province and five prefectures instead? What do you think, Sevth Prince?" Li Yun asked. "Not a single bit less. In order to appease the other three nations, my Great Shg has already made large concessions," Lin Ye replied. "It's good to have fun. Why don't I sd the daughters and granddaughters of you and the Grand Marshall to Great Shg for a royal marriage? War, th!" Chu Yuan responded with a cold laugh, "Wh has Great Wu, a nation founded on martial strgth, ever feared it?" "Very well, you said it yourself. The next time we meet, it will be wh a million-strong army levels the Imperial City of Great Wu. Your Chu clan will be exterminated, and the heads will roll. Not a single one of you will survive." Lin Ye retorted with furious laughter. [Option one: Allow the Great Shg delegation to leave, giving one hundred Destiny Points. Prepare for the war] [Option two: Detain the Great Shg delegation as hostages, getting one hundred Destiny Points.] [Option three: Execute the Great Shg delegation, demonstrating the determination of the Emperor of Great Wu, leading to war, and acquire one hundred Destiny Points.] God-level choices appeared again!
