Chapter 660: 659. Get straight to the point

A piece of news momentous enough to be inscribed in the annals of history unfolded before their eyes. Reporters frantically pressed their cameras' shutters to photograph the scene of Lu Yao tossing out the "Declaration of War Against All Nations", while simultaneously taking out their notebooks to vigorously jot down every word, every character spoken there.

Even in the Yi Dynasty Imperial Palace across the vast ocean, Li Pei and a multitude of civil and military officials also witnessed the "live broadcast".

These officials were mostly advanced in years, and before the Empress's eyes, they kept their expressions neutral, yet they all felt incredulous in their hearts.

[Declaring war against all nations... The Celestial Lord has truly gone through with it!]

[Announcing war in front of the heads of the great powers and ministers from various nations, this is making enemies of the whole world!]

Yet beyond their shock, these veteran dignitaries who had served through multiple dynasties felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction!

After a century of successive invasions by the great powers, which official present had not suffered humiliation at the hands of foreigners? Land cessions, indemnities, consular jurisdiction, supplying labor overseas... Simple words that contained unspeakable humiliation.

Even those who had climbed up step by step from inland provinces were fully aware of what those "missionaries" were up to; the recently destroyed Sacred Heart Institute was just the tip of the iceberg.

After enduring such bullying, Lu Yao's actions were truly satisfying to the heart! But... there was a common doubt in everyone's minds:

Did Lord Lu Tian... really have the confidence to act this way?
