Chapter 1077 - 1076: Emperor
Chapter 1077 - 1076: Emperor
"Of course you can."Ever since Tang Rao became a father, his paternal love has been overflowing. Whenever he sees a child, he wants to give them a kiss, especially when those children look at him with pitiful eyes.
"I'll set up a temporary shelter for you. You can eat and wear whatever you like inside, but if I discover anyone hoarding or fighting over supplies, you will be thrown out."
Since Tang Rao became the 'Emperor,' he had to act like one. It was already kind of him to open up his small treasury to help the refugees. If anyone took advantage of his goodwill, Tang Rao would not let them off.
"Thank you, thank you very much."
The little girl practically worshipped Tang Rao, almost turning into a flower in admiration.
"You all watch over things here. I'm heading back to the Kao Shan Sect. I have no idea how things are going there."
The Kao Shan Sect is Tang Rao's home base, where his closest people reside. None of them should get into trouble.
Knowing Tang Rao was worried about that place, Old Hezi and Li Ze stayed at the first refugee settlement. Uncle Zhou, who had never been to the Kao Shan Sect, went along with Tang Rao.
The Kao Shan Sect was at a higher elevation, which is why more people sought refuge there than there were actual sect members.
With Chen Tuan and Chen Ajiu there, Tang Rao was confident no one could break into the Kao Shan Sect to cause trouble.
Chen Ajiu had already implemented measures: the Kao Shan Sect was small, and safety was a concern. They would only take in the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled. Strong young men had to wait outside. The Kao Shan Sect could provide food and drink for free, but they couldn't guarantee safety.
"Grandmaster, so many people outside, haven't let anyone in yet?"
Tang Rao had the Nine Cauldron Snow Beast, so he never took the usual path home.
Uncle Zhou's mount wasn't as strong as Tang Rao's. When Tang Rao released the Nine Cauldron Snow Beast, Uncle Zhou couldn't help but gaze at it enviously.
When Chen Tuan came out, Tang Rao immediately questioned him, causing Chen Tuan to start scrambling.
"Stop asking already. Too many people want to get in. The Kao Shan Sect is only so big. Right now, we're accommodating the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled in the training ground. We provide food and drink for others but not accommodation; they can fend for themselves, right?"
Tang Rao and Chen Tuan shared the same thought.
He also thought it wasn't right to let in the strong and able-bodied.
With so many beautiful wives at home, letting others see them would put Tang Rao at a disadvantage.
"Let's first give these people some food. Luckily, nothing happened to our Kao Shan Sect. It seems the Endless Sea is becoming restless."
Tang Rao sighed heavily.
Unlike Tang Rao, Chen Tuan breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
When he heard the Endless Sea was becoming active, Chen Tuan's first thought was whether Tang Rao would be safe. The second thought was Tang Rao would definitely be safe.
These two thoughts kept swirling in Chen Tuan's mind.
Thankfully, Tang Rao returned.
All of the beautiful wives at home rushed from the backyard to the training ground upon hearing Tang Rao's voice.
Their eyes were full of worry, even someone as strong as Tu Hongxiu couldn't help but cry.
"What are you crying for, crying for? I'm not dead, am I? I'm counting on you to give me children like Sheng Xuan, so stop crying. I won't be in danger."
After saying this, Tang Rao even felt a bit moved himself. Luckily, nothing happened to him. What would have happened to his wife and children otherwise? He couldn't bear the thought of letting others take advantage.
"Tang Rao, we were so worried about you."
Lei Li, the one least skilled in sweet talking, and least knowing what to say, actually told Tang Rao straight to his face in front of everyone that she was worried about him.
"Li Li, your husband is fine. I just went out for a bit. In a few days, I'll take you out for a whirl and surprise you."
His eyebrows raised twice before dropping, clearly teasing the small women.
"But back to the matter at hand. The sea level is still rising. I must find a way to help with disaster relief. Our elevation is high, so we won't have problems for a while. But, these days, don't leave the Kao Shan Sect or run around. Understand?"
"We understand."
The women answered together. If they behaved well, Tang Rao would be much more at ease.
Tang Rao then went to find Xiao Yue and the others.
They were the major stalwarts of the Kao Shan Sect. Whenever Tang Rao needed assistance, it was these powerhouses who helped.
The Kao Shan Sect wouldn't be where it was today without their contribution.
"Lu Jun, Cha Xiangzi, in the coming period, you need to diligently refine your skills. While I'm not here, the Kao Shan Sect needs you to hold the fort."
Xiao Yue and the others were present. Tang Rao scanned the room.
The least improved was Lu Jun, and the most was Geng Bucuo.
After all, with Qiongqi's blood, once activated, it was more frightening than anything.
"Sect Master, don't worry. I'll protect the sect's every member even if it costs me my life."
Cha Xiangzi was the first to express his commitment, and the others followed. Seeing this, Tang Rao felt much more at ease.
"Then I'll leave the Kao Shan Sect to you, my brothers!"
Nothing more needed to be said. Tang Rao would never abandon his brothers. If there was a third world to go to, he'd take them all to express his gratitude.
In ancient times, Yu the Great controlled the floods and didn't enter his own house three times. Now, Tang Rao was on disaster relief missions; even after entering his home, he wouldn't sleep before leaving again. This was hardly characteristic of Tang Rao.
The beautiful wives watched Tang Rao leave with their eyes brimming with longing. Only You Xiaoxiao and Fang Jinxiu cursed Tang Rao, calling him a bastard.
Tang Rao rode the Nine Cauldron Snow Beast, circling the sky.
The waves on the Endless Sea had not decreased at all. Tang Rao couldn't fathom why, when the immortal beasts had ceased fighting, the waves remained so intense.
From the highest point above, the waters of the Endless Sea were supposed to be colorful, but now they were pitch black.
Tang Rao didn't dare get too close to the Endless Sea. Everyone around knew the sea had a suction force; even getting slightly closer meant being pulled in.
Once sucked in, finding nothing would be fortunate; meeting an immortal beast upon entry was a disaster Tang Rao couldn't handle.
But Tang Rao saw something. The source of thɪs content is novelꞁire.net
He actually saw the corpse of Hong Erwen.
Hong Erwen's corpse was floating on the water, covered with countless Golden Shells.
Wow, a real treasure trove.
His first thought was to retrieve Hong Erwen's body and scrape off the Golden Shells.
But second thoughts made him pause. What if he encountered an immortal beast while retrieving Hong Erwen's body?
The things in there were beyond his ability to handle.
"What to do, what to do? Oh, right, Xiao Hei!"
How could Tang Rao forget about Xiao Hei?
Ever since coming out of the Ice and Snow World, Tang Rao had renamed his rival. An originally tall and mighty immortal beast was forcibly called Xiao Hei, who didn't even dare to refuse. After all, half of his Beast Soul was still in Tang Rao's hand. If Tang Rao got upset and crushed the Beast Soul, Xiao Hei's life would be over.
