Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 316 - 314: Sun Yazhu’s Worries

The other women left earlier, so only he and Sun Yazhu remained in the space.

Li Qingxue initially wanted to stay, but seeing Sun Yazhu’s expression, it seemed she had something to discuss with Xia Feng, so she didn’t stay.

There was plenty of time in the future, and the other women had a degree of respect for her, having been established as the principal wife from the start.

This was largely because Sun Yazhu never used this status to act arrogantly; in fact, she took care of the others, earning their respect.

With some worry, Sun Yazhu took two steps forward and hugged Xia Feng: "All in all, always put yourself first. Although everything else is also important, you must..." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

She pursed her lips, her gentle eyes gradually starting to glisten with tears.

God knows how worried she was during those three days when she lost contact with the Dream Realm Pearl and couldn’t find Xia Feng.

Especially after hearing from Xiao Qingxue that Xia Feng had asked her many questions about the Netherworld and the Demon Realm, her heart had been on edge, feeling something was off without being able to pinpoint what.

It was only upon hearing him speak today that she understood what he had been through during those days.

And throughout all of this, Xia Feng never mentioned or complained about it to them.

Seeing her like this, Xia Feng’s heart almost shattered.

He gently kissed the corner of Sun Yazhu’s eye: "It’s okay, really okay. I know what I’m doing each time."

Sun Yazhu wrapped her arms around Xia Feng’s neck, her whole body trembling slightly against his.

She knew that because Xia Tianming and they were taken away one after another, Xia Feng now had a pressing desire to become stronger.

But with Xia Feng practicing the Ten Dao concurrently, and even incorporating other Great Dao, his path to igniting the Divine Fire was particularly lengthy.

The others had become Demigods slightly later than him, and their Divine Fire was about to successfully ignite.

Afraid of putting pressure on Xia Feng, they all personally refrained from mentioning this fact.

Yet how could a clever person like Xia Feng not notice their care, especially as they integrated some Divine Techniques that Xia Feng couldn’t master into their dual cultivation?

Xia Feng knew it all, and while he was deeply moved by their dedication, it also brought more pressure.

He wanted to grow stronger, to bolster his resolve to enter the Divine Domain and bring them back.

So much so that one could say Xia Feng was a bit too eager to become strong.

As stated before, small soldiers have strategies, and Martial Sovereigns have theirs; typically, Martial Sovereigns don’t meddle in ordinary soldiers’ wars.

For doing so would be too overbearing, otherwise, one could simply send Martial Sovereigns to kill all of each other’s soldiers, and the continent’s population would be wiped out.

But Xia Feng was too unique, not to mention being the only Demigod on the Celestial Essence Continent with no one to match him in battle.

Moreover, the fact he personally razed cities during wars already drew criticism.

Xia Feng was using power disproportionally, perhaps thinking it would decrease the casualties in enemy cities.

Though no one says anything now, future generations recorded in history books may have judgments to make.

He was too anxious, eager to unify the entire continent and ignite the Divine Fire through amassed Power of Faith to become a Martial God.

Thus, his actions appeared hasty, seen by Sun Yazhu and the other women, yet unable to advise him, leaving them to push themselves harder.

Hoping that by the time Xia Feng reached the Divine Domain, they could grasp some power to assist him.

Xia Feng held Sun Yazhu in his arms tightly, before finally bending down for a gentle kiss on her hair.

"I keep telling you, just wait for me."

"I always feel like my actions and progress are still too slow."

Sun Yazhu covered his mouth with her hand, shaking her head repeatedly: "No, no, it’s us who are troubling you, husband, you really don’t have to hurry."

"We’re fine, and we can offer you more support from within the Divine Domain."

Speaking, she began to silently cry: "Husband, take better care of yourself, what would we do if you weren’t here."

"There really is no need to rush, don’t..."

Xia Feng embraced her more tightly, finally pulling together a smile after a long while: "Alright, I understand, don’t worry."

Sun Yazhu took a while to calm her emotions before saying, lips pursed: "While I mentioned the God Burial Valley, since it’s called God Burial, I still think you should at least ignite your Divine Fire and become a Martial God before going."

"Don’t rush for quick gains, don’t hurry, make sure to be prepared."

"We can’t be by your side this time, but our hearts are always with you."

Xia Feng nodded seriously, then watched as Sun Yazhu left the Dream Realm Pearl, sighing softly afterward.

He knew Sun Yazhu meant well and was grateful for her words.

But he could not stop, and would not stop; he needed to keep seizing opportunities to sooner rescue them and reunite in the Divine Domain.

Upon leaving the Dream Realm Pearl, Xia Naiwen came to find him.

He knew roughly of the events in the Dream Realm Pearl and understood why Xia Feng sought to conquer the continent.

He came to him for this reason.

"Feng’er, all empires have submitted to Great Xia now; I’ve ordered statues of you erected in every city, for them to pray to you daily."

"I specifically ordered it expedited."

"I expect once Great Xia has pacified every city, all the statues will be up, then you can..."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Feng’s body suddenly trembled; an untraceable Divine Power gathered everywhere and surged into him.

The Lower Realm supposedly lacked Divine Power, but perhaps the Dream Realm Pearl’s evolution altered this world, or Divine Power was already present but too dispersed to be noticed before.

Xia Feng felt as though his previously blocked meridians were cleared all at once.

A vast Power of Faith mixed with Divine Power flooded into Xia Feng’s body.

Xia Naiwen stood stunned beside him: "Not, wasn’t it the power of faith from the entire continent..."

He paused mid-sentence, realizing he shouldn’t disturb Xia Feng, and quickly moved out to guard him.

Continuously pondering, perhaps because the last empires also submitted, even without statues, the faith power from the whole continent could be gathered.

Thinking this, Xia Naiwen’s heart held a faint anticipation and tension.

His son Xia Feng was already formidable before igniting the Divine Fire, so how powerful might he become now?
