"What?"
Everyone turned their heads in unison toward Wang Bo Fan. The white-haired clan elder called "Third Uncle" furrowed his brows deeply. "Bo Fan, what do you mean by that?"
"I just received a secret report from a family spy, transmitted via the Nearby Worm."
Wang Bo Fan took out a bamboo tube from his chest, opened the lid, and pulled out the concealed note inside. "Just one hour ago, the Emperor of Jing Country issued a denunciation against Yu Country. At the same time, more distant countries devout to Haotian—such as Persia, Tocharian Country, Jin Country, Wei Country, Jiao Country, and over twenty other kingdoms—have all issued denunciations against Yu Country. They claim the Natural Science research of Yu Country's Academic Palace has approached the Demon Path, defying Haotian, an unforgivable sin, and demand the immediate closure of the Academic Palace."
