Chapter 443: Framing

"Chief of the Heavenly Institute, empty talk is easy for anyone, but if you say the money is demanded by Lord Heavenly Emperor, does that make it so? Show me the document, if it truly bears the Celestial Court's seal, I'll gather the funds even if I have to bankrupt myself," said Chi 118, who, after all, was an old hand at this, not some greenhorn who could be duped by a few honeyed words. He deftly defused the crisis Lin Shen brought with him.

"There is no document," Lin Shen said indifferently.

Chi 118, of course, knew there couldn't be any document and taunted, "No document from the Celestial Court is fine, you say Lord Heavenly Emperor needs the money, then there must at least be an imperial order from him, right? Just show me the Heavenly Emperor's seal and no matter how much you ask for, I won't even frown."

"There isn't one of those either," Lin Shen replied.

Bang!
