The air in the throne room gradually tightened, as if an invisible bowstring had been pulled taut and an arrow was nocked.
Chu Yi smiled gently the entire time. Baili Yin was also smiling coldly.
After a while, Baili Yin finally moved. He slowly turned to look at the Emperor on the throne, and his tone turned cold. "Your Majesty, is this your country's sincerity?"
"The State of Yue is full of sincerity. Do you think our country is easy to bully?!"
Without waiting for the Emperor to answer, Baili Yin casually cupped his hands and said, "I'll take my leave."
After cupping his hands and bowing, Baili Yin flicked his sleeves and left. He strode out of the throne room, leaving behind a determined back view.
The entire court looked at Baili Yin's departing figure and didn't speak for a long time.
After Baili Yin walked away, the throne room quickly became noisy.
