Chapter 1123
The Daughter of Heaven, leading the Great Empire of Ming held a meeting with the Emperor of the Contas Empire in secret.
Seated across from each other at the massive table the Emperor had prepared, the two leaders silently exchanged stares as if locked in a tactical skirmish.
With rumors of the Daughter of Heaven’s survival spreading through their lands, the war between the Ming and Contas Empires had temporarily cooled. Still, the two nations remained officially at war. With their rulers already glaring at each other face-to-face, it was clear that peace wouldn’t come easily.
“Tch. I can’t believe I have to discuss state matters with a brat,” the Contas Emperor muttered in annoyance.
The provocation made the Daughter of Heaven's brow twitch, but she didn’t give a strong reaction. “You already gave your word before. Surely the great Emperor of a proud empire hasn’t forgotten his past agreement?”
“That only holds as long as we aren’t in a conflict,” the Emperor replied flatly before laying out his demand without hesitation. “An armistice? Fine, but the Empire has already identified every last one of those responsible for killing our nobles, our citizens, and those who had attempted to assassinate you. I won’t say it twice. Hand. Them. Over.”
His cold declaration turned the atmosphere heavy as a Master-level oppressive force filled the room.
For a mere child like the Daughter of Heaven to endure his presence was no small feat.
“Tch.”
Thud!!!
Seated at the head of the table, observing quietly, Davey waved a hand and swept away the emperor’s oppressive aura.
“Prince Davey, weren’t you supposed to be neutral? I don’t appreciate you aiding the Ming in this negotiation.”
