Salute To The General

As the situation turned sour, Lucius exclaimed, "We've been deceived; retreat quickly."

After saying that, the three of them promptly abandoned their opponents and swiftly moved to support Fermin. Together with Fermin, they turned and fled.

The Four Emperors transformed into their combat forms, flapping their wings vigorously as they made their escape.

Upon hearing the news, the Gods from Snowcrest Sanctum rushed to provide support.

Hepburn gazed in the direction where the Four Emperors had fled, sternly ordering his subordinates at the scene, "Chase them, chase them all. We absolutely cannot let the four of them escape. Whether they're alive or dead, I must see their corpses!" "Affirmative!"

Dinko, Moblan, Zuo Shou, and Max, each with their respective subordinates, set out to hunt down the Four Emperors.

The Gods who had rushed from Snowcrest Sanctum did not dare to slack off either. They, too, joined the pursuit to kill the Four Emperors.

At the scene, only Hepburn and a few guards remained, protecting Nathan.

Hepburn rushed over, intending to support Nathan, his voice filled with anxiety as he asked, "God King, are you all right?"

Nathan raised his hand. "Stay away!"

After saying that, he swiftly seized the half-length spear embedded in his chest, abruptly yanked it out, and then tossed it on the ground.

He stumbled, nearly falling over.

"God King!"

Hepburn came up and supported him.

Nathan ceased his Burblo and also deactivated his combat form.

In an instant, he was utterly drained and exhausted to the extreme, suddenly spewing out a mouthful of fresh blood, nearly fainting on the spot. Hepburn hastily used the device on his wrist to contact Nathan's personal spaceship in the air, urging it to come for immediate assistance. Very quickly, a spaceship materialized above their heads.

Nathan and the others were transported into the spaceship by its teleportation array.

While Hepburn was ordering his subordinates to call for the military doctor, he anxiously asked Nathan, "God King, how are you feeling?"

Nathan gave a bitter smile. "All the recent efforts to heal have been in vain. The injury has worsened again."

With tears in her eyes, Hepburn said, "I told you; you shouldn't have put yourself in danger."

Nathan slowly said, "If we don't do this, we won't be able to determine if Max is a traitor."

Max!

Suddenly, Hepburn's face turned extremely angry, his teeth clenched as he said, "I was so busy dealing with the assassin earlier that I

almost forgot about this matte net

This guy really couldn't stand the

test! He turned out to be a traitor. I can't let him off the hook

After saying that, she desired to apprehend Max, to hold him accountable for his actions. Nathan, however, stopped them. "Don't rush."

"The Four Emperors are incredibly powerful. Moreover, those who pursued the Four Emperors each had their own hidden agendas. I estimate that the Four Emperors will soon escape by the skin of their teeth, fleeing from the Divine Realm. After the Four Emperors flee, and we are free of external threats, we can then make our move on Max."

Upon reflection, Hepburn agreed, nodding and saying, "All right!"

As Nathan had said, among those who pursued the Four Emperors, only Sinistral truly put his heart into it.

The rest, like Max, were simply putting on a show.

As for Moblan, Dinko, and those God experts from Snowcrest Sanctum, after they found out that it was the Four Emperors who assassinated Nathan, they all intentionally or unintentionally let him off the hook, allowing the Four Emperors to escape. After all, although the God clan had submitted to Nathan at present, they had not truly given him their loyalty.

Deep down, they still harbored the hope that one day they could rebel.noveldrama

The Four Emperors were now Nathan's enemies.

Thus, naturally, they couldn't assist Nathan in eliminating his formidable enemy. Therefore, letting the Four Emperors go was in their best interest.

Two hours later, Nathan returned to Imperial City's Divine Palace, having just tended to his injuries.

His subordinates hurriedly came to report.

"Report to God King. The

assassination attempt by the Four Emperors failed, leading to their frantic escape. Soldiers from various God clan's pursued and attacked them along the way. However, the Four Emperors were well-prepared and had subordinates ready to assist them. The Four Emperors had already piloted the small spacecraft, escaping from the Divine Realm."

Nathan had anticipated this outcome. With a cold expression, he responded, "Got it! Tell Max and the others that they've worked hard. I'll reward them properly tomorrow."

The subordinate replied, "Understood, God King."

After his subordinates left, only Nathan and Hepburn were left in the study.

Nathan said calmly, "Tomorrow, it's time to settle the score with Max."
