In this situation, the Divine Emperor of Light and the Central Night Emperor both stepped forward to meet the challenge, forced to engage in defense. Although the war had reached a point where others were completely unable to participate, among those present were Lan Linger and her companions. They could not be allowed to die, for they were the final hope connected to Hao Qi’s return.
Hao Qi was the last shred of longing and hope for dealing with the Overlord. No one present knew how or from where Hao Qi would return, but everyone had experienced the event that rippled through the entire Multiverse timeline. This alone was incredible, so if for no other reason, Lan Linger and her companions had to be kept alive.
Moreover, besides Lan Linger and the others, Wang was among them. While his combat power was insufficient to participate in the battle, his intellect was critical; it might prove vital at any moment. Thus, they really had no choice but to save them.
