Chapter 929

~3 min read 538 words

The matter of the assassination attempt on Song Qi was known only to the Heavenly King and a few high-ranking officials; everyone else was completely unaware.

Now, look at this mess!

The Dragon Nation has struck back, and the Sakura Nation is at risk of sinking at any moment!

That old bastard of a Heavenly King made a complete mess of things, left behind a pile of trouble, and then just went and killed himself!

In this world, sometimes, choosing suicide is merely a way to escape reality...

At this moment.

In a spacious conference room, a group of Sakura ministers surrounded the Shogun, listening to an intelligence officer report on the announcement from the Dragon Nation.

Everyone's expression was grave to the extreme...

The conference room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop; not a single person knew what they should actually do in this situation...

After a long while, the Shogun let out a long sigh.

"Now..."

"There is no other way..."

"Do as the Dragon Nation says and hand the people over!"

The Shogun let his hands drop powerlessly, his emotions complex to the extreme.

Handing people over to the Dragon Nation was equivalent to handing over their entire intelligence department!

What a supreme humiliation this was!

But in the face of the threat of national extinction, this bit of shame could already be ignored...

The ministers present looked at each other upon hearing this, yet in the end, no one spoke up to object.

After a long time, a cautious voice came from the corner.

"Then... Lord Shogun, how should the funeral for His Majesty the Heavenly King be arranged?"

"The funeral?"

The Shogun's teeth itched with anger the moment he heard the title of Heavenly King.

His fists were clenched tight!

It was this guy, who had nothing better to do, who insisted on being provocative and provoking the Dragon Nation!

That was what led to such catastrophic consequences!

And in the end, this guy just died and left it all behind! Leaving him to clean up the mess was one thing...

But he still wanted him to arrange a funeral?

To hell with that!

The Shogun lowered his eyelids, his brain already racing.

However...

Dead men tell no tales; there was indeed still a lot of room to maneuver here...

The next second.

The Shogun's voice came again.

"Issue a notice! The Meiji Heavenly King colluded with the Free Nation, repeatedly provoked the Dragon Nation, and caused huge losses to our neighbor with whom we have been on friendly and intimate terms for generations!"

"He also severely damaged the pure friendship between our side and the great Dragon Nation!"

"The Meiji Heavenly King has now committed suicide to escape punishment!"

"It is hereby decided to strip the Meiji Heavenly King of his status and demote him to a commoner! The funeral of the Meiji Heavenly King shall be held according to the standards of a pauper!"

"There must be no mistakes!"

The ministers present heard this, thought for a moment, and immediately nodded like bobbleheads!

In this way, wouldn't all the dirty water be splashed onto the Meiji Heavenly King?

They would be washed clean!

Why wouldn't they do it?
