Chapter 472 Awakening Elemental Powers
"What is taking them so long? They should have come out of the secret chamber by now. It's almost an hour," Mireya looked at the portal with a concerned expression.
She couldn't help but worry about Yuan and his other wives, as she had no way of knowing what was going on inside the secret chamber.
Seeing the look on Mireya's face, Valeria chuckled. "Don't worry about them. Knowing them, nothing will happen. They're the strongest!"
"Indeed," Sylvia nodded with a proud grin. "No one could beat them, and with their strengths, they can overcome any challenge that comes their way!"
"That goes without saying," Valeria smiled, a proud look in her eyes.
At the same time, King Richard and the representatives from other nations were also curious about what was happening inside the secret chamber. They estimated that there would be ancient treasures very important for the nation as well as very rare.
"What do you think, Your Majesty?" Archmage Eldrick looked at King Richard, seeking his thoughts on the situation. He had been feeling restless ever since Yuan and his wives entered the portal.
King Richard released a long sigh and shook his head. "I have no idea what Yuan and his wives are doing inside the portal. My magic sense can't reach inside. The portal is blocking us from entering, so we can only wait for them to come out."
"But, but can't we do anything?" Holy Son Arthur suddenly slammed his hand on the table, causing the teacups to fall to the ground. "At this rate, that bastard will take everything he finds inside the secret chamber for himself! And we won't get anything at all!"
Seeing the look on Arthur's face, King Richard could only shake his head. "We can't do anything about it. They're far stronger than we can imagine. And we shouldn't forget that we're alive now all thanks to them," King Richard said with a serious look.
'Damn it!' Arthur cursed inwardly, glaring at King Richard and Daniel with a hateful gaze before storming off with a furious look on his face.
"It seems he still hasn't changed. What a pity..." Daniel muttered, watching Arthur leave.
Archmage Isadora also sighed. "It can't be helped. He is just too stubborn for his own good. If he can't change his mindset soon enough, it will only harm him further."
"You're correct, Miss Isadora," King Richard nodded with a smile, sharing the same opinion. "And from what I know, Yuan and his wives don't like arrogant people or those acting high and mighty in front of them."
"Indeed. I couldn't agree more," Archmage Isadora nodded. "I've talked with them and even shared meals with them. From what I can tell, they're very kind to those who are kind to them. They may be mysterious, but they're also very friendly. It's exactly the opposite of the rumors about them."
"I'm afraid Yuan will do something to him if he keeps up such an act," Archmage Isadora said with concern, unable to imagine what would happen if something were to befall the Holy Son of the Holy Light Empire.
"I'm also very worried about that. The Holy Light Empire is a powerful empire, and a small kingdom like Windfall Kingdom can't bear the burden of something so big," King Richard responded with a serious look and sighed.
Meanwhile, inside the secret chamber, Anna and the other women sat in a lotus position, their bodies emitting a profound aura as they underwent the process of awakening their elemental affinities.
"Incredible... it seems they're about to awaken their elemental affinities!" Yuan exclaimed in excitement.
In the next few moments, Rose awakened the fire, light, and lightning elements, significantly increasing her overall strength. Moreover, due to her awakening the fire element, her sunfire had become even more powerful.
"This is great! I've awakened three elements!" Rose couldn't contain her excitement as she felt the different elemental powers inside her body.
At the same time, Julie awakened the lightning and fire elements, making her very formidable. As for Ava, she awakened the water and wind elements. With the wind element, her speed could increase significantly, making her a very formidable figure.
And as for Leah, she awakened the rare element of Light. She also awakened two other elements, Fire and Water—two opposite elements that are very rare even in the Nine Heavens.
"I've also awakened three elements!" Leah exclaimed with a surprised look on her face, staring at her own palms in disbelief.
"Congratulations, everyone, for awakening your elements! I'm very happy for all of you!" Yuan congratulated them and kissed each of his wives passionately as a reward.
Once the kissing session ended, Yuan led everyone toward the portal's exit, where Valeria, Sylvia, and Mireya were waiting for them. Moreover, they didn't actually know how much time had passed since they arrived at the secret chamber.
"I hope we didn't spend too much time in here..."
Yuan then entered the portal, and his wives followed closely behind. The next second, they found themselves outside the portal.
Seeing Yuan and his wives come out of the portal, a wide smile appeared on Mireya's face as she dashed at him with her arms wide open.
"Yuan! You're back!" Mireya jumped at him without a second thought.
Yuan caught her up in the air and pulled her into his embrace before passionately kissing her in front of everyone, making all the men look at him with envy.
"Damn that bastard! The moment he comes out of that strange portal, he begins to kiss that beautiful woman in front of so many people," someone muttered enviously.
"He is truly a womanizer! I envy him so much!"
People began to murmur among themselves after witnessing Yuan kissing Mireya so passionately without any care for the world. They felt extremely jealous of Yuan.
Valeria and Sylvia also approached Yuan with smiles on their faces. Valeria said, "What took you guys so long to come out of the portal? Did you find anything useful inside?"
"You must tell me what you found inside the portal," Sylvia added with a serious look on her face, making it clear she wouldn't take no for an answer.
"Well, we did find a few useful things for us. But I can't tell you here, as there are so many people eyeing us," Yuan quickly replied with a smile.
Upon hearing the commotion, King Richard and the others also came rushing to the scene, looking at Yuan with curious expressions.
