Mentzer snorted coldly. “He's using a carrot-and-stick approach to make us submit!”
Fermin declared, “How could we be frightened by a mere earthling? Since he dares to kill our messenger, he should be ready to pay the price! I suggest we band together and launch an attack on Divine Realm, kill him, and then we can jointly govern Divine Realm.”
Upon hearing that, Lucius couldn't help but feel moved.
They all hailed from the beautiful and bountiful Divine Realm. Even though they each ruled over a planet as their own territory, they wanted Divine Realm.
After all, how could the barren planets with harsh environments they ruled over be compared to Divine Realm?
Besides, they had feelings for Divine Realm. Who wouldn't long to return home in glory after wandering abroad for a long time?
They didn't dare to entertain such thoughts before.
Suddenly, they heard that Medille, who had been oppressing them, was taken out and Divine Realm was thrown into complete chaos. Naturally, they harbored the idea of returning to Divine Realm.
In their eyes, an earthling like Nathan didn't deserve to lord over Divine Realm.
Thus, when Fermin suggested that everyone should snatch back Divine Realm, Lucius was tempted.
While he was ambitious, he was also suspicious. He preferred to plan thoroughly before taking action and was not particularly fond of taking risks.
He still felt somewhat uncertain deep down about the joint attack on Divine Realm.
Therefore, he turned his head toward the only female among the Four Emperors, Lola. “Lola, what do you think?”
Lola maintained her usual calm and composed demeanor. She was idly playing with her colorful fingernails as she casually said, “I, too, want to invade Divine Realm, defeat Nathan, and take control of the place. However, let's not forget Nathan has the ability to take down Medille. If we rush into an attack without fully understanding his background, aren't we risking a major loss?”
These words struck a chord in Lucius' heart.
Lucius said in frustration, “That's exactly what I'm worried about. It's said that he defeated Medille head-on. If that's true, we may not be his match even if we join forces!”
