Upon hearing these words, Wolfric's face turned red with anger. "What? You want him to slap me? I am—"
Nathan interrupted, "If you're not willing, forget it. But there's nothing more to discuss between us. Please leave."
With that, Nathan was about to leave when Wolfric hastily said, "Wait!"
Nathan turned his head, asking coldly, "Do you have something else to say?"
Wolfric gritted his teeth. "Mr. Cross, you're right, I was wrong. If you make a mistake, you must admit it; if you are punished, you must stand tall. Come on, Colin, I slapped you earlier. If you feel unsatisfied, if you hold a grudge against me, I'll let you slap me back!"
Upon seeing the situation, Nathan slightly furrowed his brow.
Wolfric was quite cunning, using retreat as an advance.
Even if Colin wanted to slap him, hearing Wolfric's words made it awkward to proceed.
After all, if he did slap Wolfric, it would be admitting to what Wolfric said about feeling unsatisfied and holding a grudge.
That way, Colin would end up looking like a petty man.
But if he didn't retaliate, the slap he took earlier would be in vain.
What a cunning man!
Nathan silently cursed Wolfric, then looked at Colin to see how he would respond.
Colin looked coldly at Wolfric, but he didn't raise his hand to slap him. Instead, he spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm disdainfully, which landed on Wolfric's shiny leather shoes.
The bloody phlegm on Wolfric's shoes was particularly glaring.
Wolfric felt both nauseated and furious.
Upon seeing the situation, Nathan couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
Colin was quite clever. He didn't slap Wolfric, avoiding giving people something to talk about.
Spitting a mouthful of bloody phlegm at Wolfric, he accused him of his violent behavior while conveying disdain and contempt.
Well done.
Nathan looked at the infuriated Wolfric and said with a smile, "Okay, since Colin can't be bothered to hit Wolfric, let's end this matter here."
The Four Emperors were cunning too. Upon discovering the appearance of Divine Realm ships near Earth, they immediately abandoned their attack and fled.
The Divine Realm ships didn't pursue. After seeing the Four Emperors escape, they returned to Earth.
The crisis on Earth was temporarily averted.
However, the Four Emperors didn't flee far.
When they found that the Divine Realm ships didn't pursue them after they escaped, they stopped and discussed in confusion how Earth could have Divine Realm ships.
Lola speculated, "It is said that after Nathan became the God King, he has been promoting cooperation between Divine Realm and Earth. These ships are probably from Divine Realm, transporting goods to Earth. They should leave soon."
Comprehension dawned on Lucius and the rest.
Fermin asked, "Should we continue to Earth to kidnap Nathan's family?"
Lucius said, "Yes, of course we must. If we don't use Nathan's family as leverage, Nathan will swiftly come to annihilate us. We cannot just sit and wait for our demise. However, we can no longer enter Earth openly."
"He had to sneak in covertly, then swiftly kidnap Nathan's family, and quickly leave Earth. We have to sneak in, quickly abduct Nathan's family, and leave Earth swiftly."
