Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 244: Waging War and Expanding Territory


In the Dream Realm Pearl, countless years seemed to have passed, and Xia Feng could no longer recall how much Power of Faith he had expended.

To his delight, this Power of Faith was indeed useful.

Originally, Xia Feng needed endless time to integrate those ten Great Dao Rules into himself.

But the Power of Faith acted like a shortcut, accelerating this process.

Finally, one day, when those ten Great Dao Rules fused together, Xia Feng's body suddenly flashed with brilliant light.

Ten different colors of light shimmered alternately on him, eventually merging into one.

In reality, Xia Feng suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

In the Dream Realm Pearl, he successfully ignited the Divine Fire, and that feeling of enlightenment he carried out from the Dream Realm Pearl.

With this enlightenment, he sat cross-legged and began using the Power of Faith within his body to refine those Great Dao Rules.

However, this refinement stopped before even half an hour had passed.

Xia Feng frowned, looking at the scant Power of Faith within him, his expression a bit hesitant.

Previously, his father said he would build statues for him in various cities, which he had initially intended to refuse.

But now, in order to obtain Power of Faith, there was no need to reject.

Yet, even so, according to the Power of Faith Zhang Heng previously conveyed, even if the entire Great Xia Empire's Power of Faith was collected, it would probably still not be enough to successfully ignite the Divine Fire.

The amount was still too little.

Suddenly, Xia Feng remembered the gazes directed at him during his previous battle with the Martial God.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly called out, "Someone, prepare, I want to bathe."

The Elixir he had taken earlier had begun to take effect, coupled with the abundant time in the Dream Realm Pearl to restore himself.

Xia Feng at this moment only appeared slightly weak; the so-called serious injuries had long been mostly healed.

But just now he was in such a hurry, focusing fully on studying the Power of Faith to ignite the Divine Fire, he didn't even have time to freshen up.

This was a good time to clean up and then go discuss that audacious idea in his mind with the previous Emperor Xia.

The Great Xia Empire alone was not enough; he would consolidate the Power of Faith of the entire Celestial Essence Continent!

Xia Feng submerged his body in the water, letting out a comfortable sigh.

Footsteps sounded behind him, but Xia Feng didn't mind.

The steps were light, sounding at most like a Martial King, so he assumed it was an attendant bringing in fresh clothes and bathing supplies.

Without turning, he waved a hand behind him, "Just leave it there, you may go out."

For a long moment, there was no movement from behind, causing Xia Feng to frown and turn his head, "I told you to leave."

Turning around, he saw a woman with a delicate face, dressed in an exceptionally sheer gauze robe, standing not far away.

"Emperor's Son, though the Empress has left, you shouldn't be without someone close to you."

The woman stepped forward two more steps, her face slightly blushing, the thin gauze robe that seemed to reveal everything with her movements accentuating her shape.

The tantalizing curves almost shouted to him; she placed her hand on herself, kneeling beside the bath.

When she slightly lifted her head, Xia Feng's angle perfectly captured the most beautiful view.

"Emperor's Son~ please take pity on me~"

She spoke while reaching to remove that layer of gauze.

Xia Feng's face darkened uncontrollably, and he waved his hand.

A mere Martial King couldn't withstand Xia Feng's casual strike.

Her whole body flew out sideways through the window, landing on the ground and rolling a few times, covering herself with dust.

The guard outside was startled by the scene, instinctively shouting.

"Who?"

"Assassin?"

In his panic, he pushed the door open to find Xia Feng standing unharmed inside, draping a coat casually over his wet body, wearing nothing underneath.

The guard quickly lowered his head, "Forgive me, Emperor's Son, for arriving late to rescue you."

Xia Feng's expression carried a hint of anger, but he did not blame the guard at the door.

Xia Naiwen, hearing the commotion, quickly arrived.

Seeing the woman's slightly embarrassed yet still pretty appearance in that revealing gauze, he quickly deduced what had happened, first sighing in relief, then finding it somewhat amusing.

Xia Feng's face reddened slightly, feeling uncomfortable being seen in this situation by his father.

But Xia Naiwen just waved his hand, "Take her away and deal with her."

The woman was swiftly dragged away by two burly men, and he glanced at Xia Feng's expression.

"Recovered a bit?"

He paused, then nodded, "It's a good timing that you came, father; I was just about to come to you and the previous Emperors to discuss something."

Xia Naiwen looked curious, "What's the matter?"

He pulled a robe from the side, "I'll come to find you later."

Xia Naiwen stopped, looking at Xia Feng's disheveled state, then nodded, "Alright, then I'll bring the former Emperors over."

A quarter-hour later, Xia Feng, having composed himself, stepped into the council hall.

The previous Emperors of Xia instinctively checked on Xia Feng's condition, only relaxing when they found he was truly uninjured.

Xia Qingyang, who was quick-tempered, was the first to ask, "Xiao Feng, what's going on? Are you in some trouble?"

It wasn't unreasonable for him to speculate; just before, Xia Tianming, who recently reached the Demigod level, was directly taken away.

Xia Feng had just broken through to Demigod and had directly killed a Martial God; Xia Qingyang was really worried that a group of Martial Gods would come down tomorrow and take him away too.

He chuckled, "Ancestors, currently the Celestial Essence Continent's lower realm only has our Great Xia Empire with a Demigod."

"At that time when I battled Dongfang Le'an, others did not hold back in their gazes towards us."

"Now that I've recovered, it's time to teach them a lesson."

The previous Emperors paused, then inquired in confusion, "Although they spied from across space, to teach them a lesson by crossing over could be troublesome."

"What are you planning?"

Xia Feng squinted his eyes, his face showing a hint of untouched arrogance.

"I want this Celestial Essence Continent to have only one voice."

His words stunned everyone present.

It was known that the Celestial Essence Continent was divided into northern, southern, eastern, and western continents, separated by oceans.

The Great Xia Empire only occupied a part of the Eastern Continent's territory.

Conquering the entire continent, was it possible with their current strength?

No one else spoke, so Xia Naiwen took the lead, "Son, if it's something you wish to do, then do it; the Great Xia Empire will always be your strongest backing!"

Upon hearing Xia Naiwen's words, something flashed quickly in Xia Qingyang's eyes.

He laughed heartily, "Getting old makes one less courageous than a young lad."

"The Great Xia Empire, invincible! Xiao Feng, do what you wish! If I could see the Great Xia Empire unify the entire Celestial Essence Continent before I die, it wouldn't have been a lifetime wasted."
