My Waste Husband novel Chapter 1975

"Alright!"

Henry had no choice but to thank him while he cupped his fist. "Thank you, Saint Emperor!"

Henry could not refuse being Asuza's husband so publicly.

Moreover, he did not know why the cunning and sinister Gordie, would suddenly protect him when he had intended to give up the gold to protect the king.

Henry was very interested in finding out what Gordie was up to.

"The top 100 contestants of the tournament shall follow Henry tomorrow and go to the Restricted Zones to suppress the chaos!"

Gordie then announced, "Tonight, I will hold a banquet in the Imperial Palace as a ceremony to send you off!"

"Hooray!"

The practitioners who were ranked in the top 100 in the tournament all cheered.

"Henry, I'll bring you to buy some clothes so that we can attend the banquet tonight!"

Azusa said while pulling Henry by the hand. They made their way to the tailor in Imperial City to make several luxurious suits for him.

"Just buy one. I can't wear that many."

Henry discovered that in the clothes people wore in the Vast Thousand Worlds were almost the same as those in the Tang dynasty of Van Xia.

Even the architecture was very much like that.

Many people there were allowed to practice Qi. The ordinary and the practitioners lived in the same world.

Everyone was pursuing cultivation, and there was nearly no development in science and technology.

In the evening, Azusa brought a very well-dressed and handsome Henry to the banquet held at the palace of the Sacred Empire.

"Today's banquet is not only a celebration, but also a grand send-off!"

Sitting high atop the throne, Gordie spoke as he raised his wine glass high in the air. "Tomorrow, Henry shall lead all of you into the Restricted Zones. I hope you all return triumphantly and bring back glory for our Sacred Empire!"

"Your majesty, don't you worry. We won't let you down!"

Master Tellfer stood up and raised his glass. "However, it's only less than a month since Henry arrived at our Sacred Empire, yet he'll be leading us, I'm afraid that I don't really understand this situation."

"It doesn't matter. The Prince will be joining you. When matters arise, he will discuss it with Henry and come up with a decision!"

Answered Gordie.

"That's great!"

Only then did Master Tellfer and the others nod their heads agreement.

Everyone knew that their in trip to the Restricted Zones, Diarmi was the real man in charge, Henry was only a first-class follower.

"Come, let me make a toast to all of you!"

Gordie raised his glass.

"Henry and I would like to make a toast to all of you too!"

Azusa and Henry sat on the seats at the right side of the throne .

After three rounds of wine, Gordie left the banquet.

Diarmi followed Gordie into the inner hall.

"Leave us!"

Diarmi retreated and said, "Father, Henry had killed Buster. He's trouble. How could you allow him to take our men to the Restricted Zones?" "Well then, what do you think we should do with him?"

"We should hand him over to the Divine Race, of course. This way, the they won't vent their anger on us!"

"Idiot!"

Gordie glared at Diarmi and said, "Henry's son had killed Mrs. Moda before his mind had fully developed. Henry didn't even make a move, yet he killed Buster. How would he let us hand him over to the Divine Race so obediently?"

"Well... Although Henry is powerful, he is still at the level of the Divine Cloud. If we get the Divine Sky experts of the Sacred Empire to attack him together, taking him down should not be a problem, right?"

Diarmi did not understand why his father was so afraid of Henry.

"If we really wanted to capture Henry and hand him over to the Divine Race, it would be a piece of cake. However if we do that, our Sacred Empire will lose face and our followers would lose faith in us. Who'd still be willing to serve our Sacred Empire with whole-heartedly in the future?"

"Well..." "The most important factor is still Azusa!"

Gordie sighed again and said, "She has been seduced by Henry and fallen too deeply for him. If we catch Henry, Azusa will definitely find a way to let Henry escape. When that happens, if the Divine Race really comes to ask for Henry, where are we going to find him?"

"Wow... you're wise indeed!"

Diarmi was suddenly enlightened. "What you're trying to do here is calm Henry down and let him think that we'd protect him, and when the Divine Race comes looking for us, you'd be able to hand over Henry and get rid of him!"

"That's right. Follow Henry and the others to the Restricted Zone tomorrow. Act carefully. No matter what danger you run into, retreating is the first option!"

"Yes! I'll be careful!"

Diarmi nodded.

"Also, tonight, I want you to watch over Azusa. Don't let anything happen between Henry and her!"

Gordie said with a cold face, "Henry... will never come back alive after today!"
