Chapter 1554: Rescue
Outside, the Star Divine Beasts did not stop their attack.
They continued to charge frantically at the Defense Shield.
Keen eyes would notice that the Defense Shield's power had greatly diminished, and it could be breached at any moment. By then, perhaps, it would be the downfall of the Divine Country.
What to do now?
Force the Divine Emperor to activate the Transmission Array.
Secretly, all major Divine Generals, Great Sects, as well as major forces gathered together.
At this rate, the Imperial City of the Divine Country would certainly cease to exist.
They didn't want to put their lives on the line anymore.
A hidden current quickly spread within the Divine Country.
This got lively; some gossip-loving Cultivators loved to talk about such matters the most.
As for the national palace of the Imperial City, the Divine Emperor no longer had the mood for such things. Now, his mind was full of the images of the Four Empresses, and in moments of deep emotion, tears flowed uncontrollably.
From this moment on, his life would no longer have an Empress.
"I will avenge you."
The Divine Emperor made up his mind, his entire being emanating an astonishing aura.
"Not good, we must act quickly."
"Unexpected that the Emperor recovered so quickly."
"So what, now that the Combat Power has regressed, I'm afraid he should be the one worried." An old man stood up.
"That's right," others chimed in.
"Just hope tomorrow goes smoothly for everyone."
The meeting dispersed, but everyone's mind was heavy.
On the side of the Divine Emperor, something was being handled too.
At the Divine Emperor's feet knelt two people, discussing matters post-battle.
"You say they are already sitting together?"
"Yes, Emperor."
"Don't act rashly; wait until this matter is over, and then I'll decide how to handle it."
"Understood."
"Withdraw."
After the Hidden Guard left, the Divine Emperor's lips curled into a cold smile. He knew some people were untrustworthy, but as long as he was in power, there would be no issues; if he wasn't, then it was hard to tell.
Although he had many descendants, few were outstanding.
Still have to work hard, he thought of the Four Empress, and his eyes turned red again. They died tragically, right under his nose.
They should have enjoyed a beautiful, happy life, but it all went up in smoke.
Feeling his Cultivation retreat from the Peak Realm, he felt somewhat helpless.
Although it could rise again in the future, it would take twice the effort and time.
None of these could make up for it.
"Report, no trace of the four Empresses was found."
"Are you sure you got it right?"
"No, Emperor, we sacrificed ten Shadow Guards to find out."
He waved his sleeve dismissively, "I understand, keep looking, you must find them."
"Yes.
"Beloved Concubines, it is my fault." A big man shed tears, a rare sight.
The Divine Emperor didn't know that his women were currently receiving treatment from Tang Feng.
Treating four women at once was quite taxing for Tang Feng.
The four Empresses felt something wasn't right, with shattered internal organs, multiple limb fractures, and hearts in a fragile state. Tang Feng could only use Heavenly Thunder Power, and then use the Formation to heal gradually.
The four Empresses sensed someone was treating them, and their hearts were moved,
but unfortunately, they could do nothing.
Tang Feng saw the finger of one person move; what did this mean? It meant the other party understood everything, which is why there was such a reaction.
"Listen up, all of you; from today on, everything from now on must be under my command." Tang Feng didn't care if they understood or not; regardless, they wouldn't be sent back.
The Four Empresses let out a sorrowful cry in their hearts; they really didn't know why the other party had to do this, and even if they knew, they didn't know what to do.
Back to the battle, with their injuries, they saw no hope of survival, and when they thought they would become engulfed.
For sure dead, so they all fainted.
And when the Earth Dragon Beast handed them over to Tang Shi, it also had some interest, but still, treatment was necessary.
Tang Feng looked at the Four Concubines; he had to admit, they were indeed stunning, incredibly beautiful.
Unfortunately, they were all now in a coma, requiring a long time to recover, and Tang Feng didn't know if they would ever wake up again.
This time, the greatest gain wasn't them but the resources scattered across the land, with over eighty percent falling into Tang Feng's hands, something he hadn't expected.
He hadn't imagined such a bounty.
After returning from the space, Tang Feng traveled all over the Divine Country buying resources.
Anything he fancied he bought up.
At this moment, he was probably the only one with such thoughts.
Regardless of others' curiosity, businesses would still proceed; if you want, they will sell.
Thus he gathered a large pile of useful materials.
This war caused the previously more expensive items to plummet in value. Everyone feared that once the city fell, everything would turn to smoke.
This was something they didn't want to see.
Yet, with the Star Divine Beasts hunting outside the city, it felt extremely uncomfortable.
This time, Tang Feng experienced life's various aspects, each person carrying an emotion, with many feeling happy.
In their eyes, such a war was very exciting.
A good man should fight.
However, the commotion was fine, but meddling in other affairs was not.
There they were, when Tang Feng was eating, these guys sat down without saying a word, eating like it was their own home after just a few bites.
"What do you mean by doing this?"
"Should I know?"
"Everyone is resisting the invasion; what are you doing here, eating, feasting on meat and fish, kid, your heart is quite big, which family are you from?"
"Aren't you being too nosy, what business is it of yours which family I'm from?" Tang Feng said.
"How can it not matter to us, for a junior like you to speak to us this way, are you tired of living?"
"If you want to eat, just say so, no need to pretend; I can afford to treat a meal." Tang Feng said.
"Well, then, can you tell us who you are?"
"Yeah, being so calm, aren't you afraid of dying?"
Tang Feng shook his head, who isn't afraid of dying; if I don't eat more now, how would I eat after death?"
"True, then let's order more and have a good time."
"You guys really are not polite at all, what's up, all the elders at home gone out?"
"Yes, aren't yours, a lot of casualties."
"It's the same for everyone."
"Didn't expect the Star Divine Beasts to invade."
"Alas, who knows how tomorrow's battle will turn out."
Tang Feng listened to their lament, but did not say much; these were all chatterers, not of much use.
He had no intention for deep connections.
Besides, their gaze wasn't right, probably hatching some nefarious ideas.
This would undoubtedly be courting death.
He was contemplating many issues.
Hoping someone would offer some benefits.
And there they came, delivering themselves to the door.
Quite amusing, some people might have had it too easy.
What were they thinking?
Did Tang Feng appear foolish to them?
