The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1460 - 1459: A Pile of Young Wives

"Lord Island Master, your heart is a bit too magnanimous, I'm somewhat overwhelmed by the favor!"Tang Rao wasn't overwhelmed by favor, he was clearly overly frightened.

"Dad, you'd better not force me, don't you already know the decision I've made?"

Of course Wang Lin knew, since childhood, Wang Han's decisions had never changed, and it had been the same all these years.

But the matter of Tang Rao marrying Wang Han wasn't something they could just dismiss on their own; they couldn't joke with the lives of the entire common folk just because the two of them had no romantic connection.

"Han Han, Dad asks you, if your happiness is compared to the lives of all the Divine Realm's beings, which do you think is more important, the beings of the Divine Realm or your happiness?"

Wang Lin gave Wang Han a dilemma. Those with great love would surely choose to sacrifice themselves and save the common folk, but Wang Han, no, she was still inherently a simple woman, and her nature hadn't changed. So even compared to the happiness of the common people, she still felt her happiness was more important.

"Dad, during the time I was unconscious, did the common people keep me in their hearts? Did any of them truly feel sorry for me? Did any sincerely come to see me?"

Wang Han left Wang Lin speechless; Wang Lin didn't even know how to refute what Wang Han had said.

"See, Dad, you can't make any sense of it, can you? Because all the common people only think about themselves. They never considered me. Whether I exist or not, they wouldn't care or have time to care, so why should I care about them? Isn't that unfair to me?"

Yeah, what Wang Han said made sense too.

"Yeah, I'm such a carefree man, I should be a bit cooler. Why should I be with you, a cold woman? My future is bright, why should I be stuck with you?"

Tang Rao dissatisfied? Wu Suowei wanted to curse Tang Rao for being shameless, but in the end, Wu Suowei held back and didn't vent all his accumulated insults on Tang Rao.

"Lord Island Master, I assume you've arranged a place for us to stay, right? Saving people earlier was exhausting, I'd like to rest first and then have a decent meal."

Tang Rao isn't marrying the girl, yet he expects good food and lodging. Only Tang Rao could have such a thick skin.

"Yes, of course, it was prepared early on. What do you want to eat? I'll have the kitchen prepare it. I'll ensure you eat well, drink well, and live well. Thank you and Brother Wu for your hard work today. Those matters we didn't discuss earlier, let's talk after you and Brother Wu are well-rested. You young people get emotional, no worries, we'll talk when you're calmer!"

Wang Lin hadn't given up, still wanting to set up Tang Rao and Wang Han, but anyone with common sense could see they weren't satisfied with each other. What's the point of forcing them together?

"Brother Wang makes sense, so let's rest first, and we'll talk after that. Besides, there's still a few days until the Harvest Festival opening ceremony."

With a few days left until the opening ceremony, the happiest person was Tang Rao, meaning he could get some good sleep while at the Island Master's house, and those who coveted the Divine Stone wouldn't intrude on the Island Master's place.

Even in danger, Tang Rao would be safe and free for these two days.

"Master, we've talked so much, but just now in front of the Island Master, you didn't tell me what the thousand-year prophecy is about. Then there's the talk about my marriage with Wang Han affecting the lives of the Divine Realm's common folk. What does that mean? I understand why you didn't say it in front of others, but why aren't you telling me now? I find it somewhat hard to comprehend!"

Tang Rao believed in doing more with less; he'd rather not believe in a prophecy than believe too much and get himself in too deep.

"The prophecy said you are fated with this girl—no, you are fated with the girls from the east, west, south, north, and central islands. If you want to become a hegemon and rule the Divine Realm, you must marry all these girls from the five islands; missing even one is not allowed!"

Not allowed to miss even one? Hearing this, Tang Rao wished he could take his head off to dust it, lest it get too dusty and his ears go bad.

"Really, not missing even one?"

Tang Rao wanted to ask if he could get a discount and miss a couple since his body's capabilities were limited. Handling too many women was beyond him, and he didn't want to bring too many women back; it would be unfair to the others.

"Not missing one, among the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, do you think leaving one out would still maintain balance?"

There was such a saying? Tang Rao had never heard of it before.

"But I've already got a bunch of wives at home, and now you're pointing out more women for me; do you want me to be overwhelmed from now on?"

And then mock Tang Rao at a certain age for not managing this or that?

No, Tang Rao absolutely wouldn't give Wu Suowei that opportunity.

"Tang Rao, is your body more important, or are the common beings more important? Tell me!"

Tang Rao suddenly couldn't find words; what was more important? How would he know what was more important?

He initially wanted to say his body was more important, but then he thought of so many women waiting for him and changed his mind. "Are you kidding me? I'm the kind to ignore those in peril? Of course, the common folk are more important! For the common folk, what does bearing hardship matter to me, Tang Rao?"

That kind of self-sacrificing spirit from Tang Rao made Wu Suowei keep nodding and saying right, right, just like that. Just for the sake of the common folk, go and have a good relationship with these women. As long as you're willing, having more women isn't much. Apart from taxing your body, Wu Suowei couldn't see any trouble for Tang Rao.

"Yes, you indeed suffer a bit, but when you become the greatest and most unique person in the Divine Realm, I'll let you know that having many women is a blessing that others would envy."

Bah, the more they talked, the more exaggerated it got. Tang Rao's dream now wasn't to have more and more women. Instead, he felt that having too many women had become quite a burden.

"Thank the heavens for wanting me to be the one who saves the common folk; I'm very grateful. I'll work hard in the future, strive to manage all these women, and let them be my little wives!"

Torment them daily, have them fetch water, wash my face, feet, clothes, cook, and if anything upset him, use them as an outlet. With so many women, Tang Rao feared they might feel lonely and aggrieved without reasonable use.

"Tang Rao, haha, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you'll be like with so many little wives."
