After finishing their meal, Zhao Tian set his spoon down and exhaled slowly.
He wasn't full, but he had eaten enough to regain some energy.
The other women finished their meals as well, and soon, one by one, they moved to the seating area.
Zhao Tian silently walked toward the seating area, and the women followed, each settling into their usual spots.
Fei Lingxi and Xia Shenyi sat on either side of him, while Li Jia and Velnorah took the seats nearby.
Fei Ziyu, Yao Lian, and Shi Yixian sat opposite as they all looked at Zhao Tian.
For a few moments, no one spoke.
The silence was not awkward but rather filled with an understanding.
The air was heavy with everything that had happened, and yet, it was clear they were all waiting for him to say something.
Zhao Tian finally broke the silence "Did something major happen outside?"
Letting out a sigh Li Jia spoke "The other sects and nobles within the dynasty were quite restless after you declared the prince as the next Emperor."
