"What? Is it true? Has this been confirmed? This isn't just some baseless rumor, is it?"
Ji Shengyue, who had been handling official business, shot to her feet in excitement upon hearing the news.
"It's true."
"And according to some inside sources, friction between the White Elephant Empire and the Great Xia Empire has been brewing for a long time."
"They often have small-scale conflicts over territory."
"But no one expected the White Elephant Empire to make such a big move this time."
"It seems their subordinates on the ground didn't follow orders from above and things got out of hand."
"This happened to coincide with Chu He killing the White Elephant Empire's Divine Child on the Black Continent Grassland."
"So, the White Elephant Empire found the perfect excuse and issued a global announcement in its own name."
"They declared they would not let the matter rest and demanded that the Great Xia Empire hand over Chu He, along with a person he took."
