Xia Junao was horrified. What did "prevent us from opening" mean? Could it be that the Abyss was going to send people to attack us now?
"That's what I said. A few days ago, I wrote a letter and had someone throw it into the Abyss' territory with a slingshot. As usual, there was a puff of smoke, and then the letter disappeared. So I think the person in charge inside should have seen it."
"You really are... um... unexpected."
Even though Xia Junao had been emperor for more than ten years and was considered knowledgeable, he had never seen such a cool operation. He could only use the most pleasant words to describe it.
"You fainted immediately after saying something taboo in your own palace. What else do you think you can hide from others? Rather than being discovered, it's better to tell the truth. At least it will appear that we are aboveboard."
Lin Hai pointed toward the other end of the large round table and said, "See that flag? It's basically a piece of white cloth with a circle drawn on it."
"I see. Whose flag is this? It's so low-quality. Can't their tribe just draw a tiger or leopard like others?"
Xia Junao had already noticed this strange flag, but he didn't care. After all, he knew the flags of big countries. What kind of beautiful flags could these chiefs who had no artistic cultivation make?
"That's the flag of the Abyss. I'll put it here. Maybe someone will come."
"Mr. Lin! You invited them to attend the meeting? But the flag of the Abyss is really unique. It is worthy of being a hidden powerful force. Even its flag is different from others."
Xia Junao's expression changed as fast as the charge of the Daliang Empire's cavalry.
"Oh, you misunderstood. I invited them to the meeting, but they refused and only gave me one sentence in reply."
"What?"
"Something can't come, but we will do our best to disrupt it."
"What about this flag?"
"I just drew a circle on the white cloth in the shape of the Abyss to convey my feelings. But since they're not coming, I'll have them withdraw."
"So it was painted by Mr. Lin. No wonder it's so different and extraordinary. Hahahahaha."
Xia Junao's laughter, which he used to ease the embarrassment, was obviously a bit louder, attracting a lot of people's attention. However, when everyone found out that the irritating laughter came from the Emperor of the Daliang Empire, their eyes became obviously more tolerant.
Xia Junao quickly fell silent, then asked in a low voice, "What did the Abyss mean when they said they would do their best to destroy it?"
"I originally thought they would send someone out, but now that the meeting has started, they haven't made any movement. This means they really can't get out. I think there's only one thing they can do."
Xia Junao understood what he meant and immediately said, "Increase the interference!"
"Yes."
"Mr. Lin, wait a moment. Let me give it a try."
After saying that, Xia Junao leaned back, allowing his entire body to be supported by the chair, and then softly said, "Which dynasty was it two thousand years ago..."
After saying this, he seemed to wait a moment before opening his eyes and saying solemnly, "I didn't faint, but I clearly felt dizzy. This means their interference has intensified, and the steel bars embedded in the wall alone can't block it."
"Oh, just as I guessed, the amount of steel bars in the wall has also been calculated. Theoretically, it should be enough. If not, I have a backup plan."
After saying that, Lin Hai clapped his hands, and the door of the conference hall was opened again. Teams of Qinghe royal guards came in carrying iron cages, and then respectfully placed the iron cages next to the heads of state attending the conference - well, one for each person. Then they opened the iron cages, respectfully placed the heads of state's chairs in them, and then respectfully invited the head of state himself in.
Of course, some people were unwilling to go in, but the loyal guards still respectfully threw them in, locked the door, and then put it back in place.
Of course, although most people were extremely shocked in their hearts, they accepted this arrangement calmly. After all, as long as they saw Xia Junao, Lin Hai and Chen Xu all in the cage, they would feel inexplicably at ease.
People are like that. No matter how dangerous the situation, as long as there are people in the same situation nearby, they will feel much more at ease. Even if being put in a cage is strange, now it can only be treated as one of the three bosses enjoying playing a special game.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
Seeing that everything was almost ready, Lin Hai stood up and spoke loudly.
"I'm Lin Hai, the Emperor of the Qinghe Empire. Even if you didn't know me before, you should know who I am now. I initiated this meeting, but before we begin, I have a question for everyone."
Lin Hai cleared his throat and asked, "Can anyone tell me what happened a thousand years ago?"
