As they continued on their journey, they took in the spectacle of the Great Wu Imperial City.


    They noticed that all the citizens of Great Wu exuded an air of self-assured pride, revering the Martial Emperor.


    "Honored envoys, His Majesty is waiting for you in the Divine Martial Hall. Please follow me to grant an audience to His Majesty," said Eunuch Wei.


    Just as these envoys reached the Royal Palace, Eunuch Wei arrived, accompanied by a large number of guards.


    "Please lead the way, Eunuch Wei."


    Although Eunuch Wei in front of them was just a messenger, these envoys did not dare to underestimate him and spoke respectfully.


    "Follow behind me," said Eunuch Wei, who held no awe for these True Gods.


    At this moment.


    In the Divine Martial Hall.


    It had been restructured by Jin Chiyang!


    The dome was extremely high, adorned with numerous pearls, and the golden patterns formed a sharp "Wu" character.


    "Martial Emperor!"


    The envoys from the Chen Chu realm came with the purpose of paying their respects to the Martial Emperor.


    They suddenly saw a figure sitting on the imperial throne, clothed in black royal robes. He exuded a limitless air of leadership. His body poised and majestic, as if he could hold up the heavens, draped with the most potent power.


    Although they were True Gods, faced with the Martial Emperor, they felt the person before them was unshakeable as the heavens.


    "Long live the Great Wu Emperor, eternal prosperity for Great Wu!"


    They had not originally intended to kneel, but impressed by the awe-inspiring presence on the throne, they were overwhelmed, knelt, and hailed the eternal Great Wu Emperor.


    "Rise," ordered Chu Yuan, sweeping his gaze over the group.


    He was well aware of the intentions of these visitors - to probe Great Wu and gather information.


    Inviting them to meet him was a definitive declaration of Great Wu''s status as a major power in Chen Chu realm.


    "Your Majesty, I come from the Jing Imperial Dynasty. Emperor Jing has learned of your unification of the central and five Xuan regions and sent me to offer congratulations. As an emissary, I have brought special products from the Jing Imperial Dynasty to present to you."


    The envoy from Jing Imperial Dynasty said.


    "The Jing Imperial Dynasty is very thoughtful. When you depart, you may take with you the special products of my Great Wu," Chu Yuan replied. "The envoys may observe our local customs under our guidance. Please rest for a few days."


    "We''ve heard that Great Wu''s large cannon and warships are formidable. We''re quite curious. May we have a chance to see them?"


    What they wanted most was to see Great Wu''s war weapons.


    Is this their way of making us pay for peace?


    Sea Demon Realm''s demand was audacious, leaving the emissaries stunned.


    The Sea Demon Realm has been looting Chenchu for quite some time, acting recklessly and without fear.


    Emissaries from their Kingdom have experienced extortion, to prevent disputes and wars breaking out, often they had to hold their noses and agree, to get rid of them.


    But seeing this, they are evidently courting trouble.


    If a conflict did arise with the Sea Demon Realm, it would weaken Great Wu''s strength, something they would very much enjoy.


    Chu Yuan, without any expression, indifferent said, "Is that all you want? Isn''t it a little too less?"


    "Too less?" The five Demon envoys were taken aback but quickly responded with a sarcastic smile, "If the Emperor is willing to give more, haha, we would happily accept."


    Although the Great Wu destroyed the Xuanzun Dynasty, the Sea Demon Realm isn''t afraid of Great Wu.


    Chenchu is often extorted by them but it''s not just a matter of pretending to swallow their anger - if the Martial Emperor were to obediently turn things over, it would be good. If not, the Demon Lords wouldn''t be easy to deal with.


    "One last word for the Martial Emperor - if you intend to go back on your word, we might just decide to take a stroll around the Great Wu Dynasty. Invoking gods is easy, making them leave tough. It''s better to cooperate. In future, even if other dynasties dare to target Great Wu, you will have the support of the Sea Demon Realm."


    This was voiced by the five Demon envoys.


    Brazenly arrogant and assertive.


    They had presumed themselves victorious over Great Wu.


    While there was a power struggle within the Sea Demon Realm, when it came to looting Chenchu they were perfectly united.


    The implication was quite clear – not surrendering anything would obviously lead to the Great Wu never knowing peace – the powerful from the Sea Demon Realm would swarm into Great Wu, loot its people and make them miserable.


    It''s easier to deal with the devil himself than his minions.


    [Option 1: Kill the five Demon envoys to gain 1,000 Destiny Points and one True God Pill.]


    [Option 2: Expel the five Demon envoys to gain 1,000 Destiny Points and one random lottery draw.]


    Expel or kill?


    The system popped up with two choices.


    "Why don''t you take the entire kingdom." Chu Yuan proposed.


    "Give the entire kingdom to us?" The five Demon envoys arrogantly responded: "Ha ha, great! Take your throne high, too, as it would allow us to get a taste of what it''s like to rule the Great Wu. Martial Emperor, we are giving you only three breaths'' time to think."


    "Do I really need to spell out our course of action?" Chu Yuan spoke to one of the emissaries.


    "You bunch of little demons, restless and disruptive creatures. You dare trouble the peace of this place and I. Have you grown weary of your lives?"
