Lu Chen had already prepared for the worst. If these people were clever enough to follow his instructions, he would be able to see the First Emperor of Qin safely and soundly. But if they continued to stall and obstruct him, he would simply tear this prison down and fly out.
Once he flew a lap around the city in the sky with special effects and let everyone see him, he figured the First Emperor of Qin wouldn't be able to pretend he didn't exist even if he wanted to. Fortunately, these people weren't total fools. The bizarre spectacle before them was far beyond what any ordinary trickery could explain, and they immediately reported the matter up the chain of command.
Until word came back, the jailers treated him with extreme caution, serving him fine wine and food, terrified of causing any dissatisfaction. While they weren't certain if he truly was an immortal, he clearly possessed genuine power, and flattery was never a mistake.
