Against Heaven's Will

Chapter 166 Rescue



Oof...

Everyone in the room gasped.

"How come Bella is attacking the Dwarf Kingdom? Are you sure it is her?" Xuefeng questioned in surprise.

"All I know is that a Celestial Phoenix is attacking them and they are requesting back-up. When I asked for more details and the Phoenix descriptions, I found out it matches Bella, so I decided to call you," Wu explained. "It’s a big deal for Trade Union since the Dwarf Kingdom is one of our main providers of ore and various precious metals."

"Why would Bella attack them? Didn’t she separate with Drakos?" Yiren asked with a frown. "If he left her alone, he is definitely in for a beating."

"I don’t think she would leave him. She would cling to him since she doesn’t know Heaven Realm as he does," Xuefeng pointed out before he realized something. "Wait, did you say the Dwarf Kingdom provides ore and metals? Are Fate Stones considered Ore?"

"Right... They are!" Wu exclaimed. "Do you think Drakos got in trouble with the Dwarf Kingdom after he tried to steal their Fate Stones?"

It wasn’t a secret that it was his obsession.

"Damn you, Drakos," Xuefeng cursed, realizing the possibility of that was too big. "There is no way Bella would attack them for no reason. What if they caught Drakos and now she tries to help him?"

"Let’s go there and meet up with Bella. Maybe we can solve the situation," Wu suggested. "I was supposed to visit the Dwarf Kingdom for Trade Union anyway. How about we meet there? My Grandpa is planning to leave tonight so you can join him."

"Sure," Xuefeng agreed without hesitation. He received glances from the girls but he ignored them.

"Great! I will contact you again once we depart. Love you!" Wu called out before the call ended as the crystal light diminished.

"What about the people that target us?" Nuwa asked right away.

"Bella and Drakos are part of our group. We need to help them first. This is also our chance to reunite with everyone. Before we travel to the Hell Hole, we need to gather everyone anyway," Xuefeng decided as he jumped off the bed. "Let’s ask Miss Golden if they will come with us."

———

"Let me get this straight. You want to leave the safest place you can be now right after I told you it’s best if you stay here for the next week?" Golden Queen asked confused.

"Yes," Xuefeng nodded firmly.

"But why? Can’t you wait till the situation calms down first or just leave the problem to President Wu or your wife?" Golden Queen suggested. "I’m sure they will be fine on their own."

"The situation will never calm down. If someone wants to attack me, they will simply wait till I leave. Now that I think about it, maybe it’s better to leave before they prepare anything. The situation is heated right now which is a perfect opportunity to sneak out. No one will expect we leave after setting up such tight security around the Palace," Xuefeng explained. "We can cultivate in the Flying Ship just fine anyway."

Golden Queen rubbed her forehead.

"What do I tell my Husband then?"

"How about nothing?" Nuwa suddenly proposed. "He can act as our diversion. We will sneakily leave while your husband will catch up with us later. We will first save our friend in the Dwarf Kingdom before we meet up in the Spirit Land. What do you think?"

"I doubt my husband would agree to it," Golden Queen muttered. "I should inform him about it first."

"Can’t you think for yourself?" Nuwa countered right away as she gazed straight into her eyes. "What’s more, we are not asking you for permission. We are simply telling you our plans and ask you if want to come with us. We will go even if you don’t want us to."

Golden Queen squinted her eyes at the sudden attack and glanced at Xuefeng instead.

"Is this what you want?"

"Yes," Xuefeng nodded, playing the good cop. "I think this will be for the better. I want to reunite with all my wives and friends as soon as possible. We are telling you because I want you to come with us. I still didn’t finish healing your Curse and I keep my word."

"What about the one year promise you made with my Husband?" Golden Queen wondered.

"It’s still on-going. It’s not like we are running away. Won’t you be with us the whole time?" Xuefeng replied calmly. "Once we are all together, we can finally begin our training to reach the Celestial Stage in just one year."

Golden Queen remained silent as she gazed at Xuefeng.

"Fine. I will go with you. I can send my Husband a message once we left the Capital," Golden Queen agreed without any more questioned but Xuefeng could sense she wasn’t satisfied with the plan.

He couldn’t really do anything about it so he put a blind eye to it, pulling both Yiren and Lisa into his arms.

"Let’s go then."

They already informed President Wu about their willingness to join him so sneaking inside the Flying Ship wasn’t hard. All they did was use the Palace to get as close as possible before teleporting inside the Flying Ship with all the crew already waiting for them.

"Are you sure everyone is on board? We are not going to come back once we leave," President Wu questioned and Xuefeng nodded in Golden Queen’s stead. "Master’s will join us later. We can go by ourselves first."

"Alright, we are setting off," President Wu ordered his staff before suggesting, "You guys can stay in your rooms and busy yourselves as we travel. There is nothing else to do."

Yiren and Lisa squeezed Xuefeng’s arms at that moment, sending him a sign. They deserved some attention from him after being away for the longest.

"How long would it take for us to reach the Dwarf Kingdom?" Xuefeng wondered, trying to calculate his time when President Wu smiled.

"About two days since we will first stop by at another Land for something," President Wu informed and the Flying Ship finally accelerated.

"Air Land?" Golden Queen questioned as she looked ahead through the glass. "That’s the direction we take."

"That’s right. We will drop by the Air Land since I have a special surprise," President Wu said mysteriously.

"Surprise?" Xuefeng repeated, finding it suspicious.

"You see, I think me giving up on the Fire Stone is not enough to pay back for my attitude before, so I decided to help you a bit," President Wu began. "I called some people and send orders but it was hard to pinpoint their location. It took me a whole day but thankfully, I finally found them."

He paused and asked, "Would you like to meet your Four Devils?

———

"Well, well, well, who do we have here."

A playful voice reached the Four Devils as they entered inside a spacious Mansion. They were immediately surrounded by tens of guards, all having scars with their expressions wary.

"Are those famous Four Devils that are wreaking havoc in my area recently?" A young man in a white suit asked as he walked down the stairs, coming up to greet them. "Why did you come to my home this late at night? Is it to share a bed with me?"

Xiao Wen, Princess Shan, Yi, and Wuying stopped together, all ready to strike at any moment. They didn’t come in here to have a peaceful meeting.

Bzzt!

Before they moved though, a sudden barrier zoomed up from the floor, locking them inside like a cage.

"Do you think I’m stupid? I already heard how you killed the boss of your camp. The same trick won’t work on me," the young man called out, his smile almost reaching his ears.

He snapped at his subordinates and ordered, "Kill them first. We will think what to do with their people later."

The girls only smiled at that, finding that hilarious.

"We plan to take over this city and use it as our base from now on," Wuying replied to his earlier question. "We are unfortunately going to kill you and anyone else who opposes us. Apologies in advance."

"Haha, oh really?" The man laughed, not showing much anger at her confession. "What do you think boys? Do you want to change your boss?"

The men only copied his laugh as they pulled out their weapons.

"I honestly don’t mind. How about a trade? You let all of us have fun with you tonight and the city will be yours. What do you think?" one of the men suggested but Wuying only glanced coldly at him and commanded.

"Kneel now or a painful death awaits you."

The mansion’s lobby quickly filled with laughter but a moment later, their legs began to bend and one by one, everyone slammed against the floor. Their faces pressed hard against the stone, almost breaking their cheekbones in the process.

"Fuck!" the young boss cursed as he struggled to stay up but after shivering for a moment, his knee finally bent and he joined the rest on the floor.

What was the most bizarre, Wuying didn’t even do anything yet, glancing at the girls confused. Thankfully, they didn’t need to wait for too long to discover the mystery.

"Excuse me, I’m looking for a few beautiful women who miss their husband and want to rush into his embrace. Did I find the right address?"
