Inside Chu Yunfan's tent, a white-robed man sat below Chu Yunfan. This white-robed man looked to be in his forties. He had the appearance of a middle-aged man and had a noble air about him.
"You are the White-Robed Marquis? May I know why Marquis has come here? "Chu Yunfan looked at the white-robed man and asked.
In Grand Xia, although it wasn't easy to be conferred the title of Marquis, there would always be many geniuses who shone brightly for a period of time. As long as these people were willing to work for the Grand Xia Empire, it wouldn't be difficult for them to be conferred the title of Marquis.
Not to mention that the Grand Xia Empire had been established for so many years, it was unknown how many people had been conferred the title of Marquis. If it wasn't for the fact that the title of Marquis could not be inherited, the streets would already be filled with Marquis.
But even so, there were still many Marquis in the Grand Xia Empire. In fact, Chu Yunfan didn't know all of them. In fact, he didn't know most of them.
However, there was still a difference between being conferred the title of Marquis. For someone like Chu Yunfan, who used his absolute strength to establish enough merits in the shortest time possible to be conferred the title of Marquis, in every generation, there were only a few who could do this.
It could be said that the majority of people had served in the army for many years, continuously accumulating merits, and were conferred the title of Marquis.
It could be said that compared to the White-Robed Marquis, Chu Yunfan was in the limelight and was the center of attention. They were on a completely different level.
However, Chu Yunfan quickly recalled some information about the White-Robed Marquis. Although he had never seen him before, the Flying Immortal Sect had long sent him news about other Marquis.
Among them was this White-Robed Marquis. Yang Yi, born in the Yang Clan, had served in the army since he was young, and was later conferred the title of White-Robed Marquis.
Basically, his resume was ordinary and mediocre!
Ordinary people naturally wouldn't dare to underestimate the White-Robed Marquis. Even if he was ordinary and mediocre, those who could be conferred the title of Marquis were the cream of the crop among their peers.
However, in front of Chu Yunfan, it wasn't enough.
"Marquis Chu, I'm here on behalf of the Crown Prince!" The White-Robed Marquis looked at Chu Yunfan.
"Crown Prince?" Chu Yunfan frowned and his eyes shone with a sharp light. Everyone knew that Li Qianyuan was the Crown Prince's trusted aide.
When Chu Yunfan killed Li Qianyuan, he and the Crown Prince's faction were already mortal enemies.
However, he was somewhat surprised that the White-robed Marquis had actually thrown his lot in with the Crown Prince. He was different from Li Qianyuan, who was a trusted aide of the Crown Prince. It was obvious that the White-robed Marquis had thrown his lot in with the Crown Prince later.
The Human King did not mind the contact between the court officials and the princes and princesses. He even encouraged them to form cliques and compete with each other. The final victor would be the next Human King.
However, the current situation was unclear. Even if it was the Crown Prince, with so many brothers and sisters competing against him, he didn't seem that outstanding. Smart people wouldn't choose to bet so early.
"I'm sure the White-Robed Marquis knows of my relationship with the Crown Prince. Marquis Hun Tian was the Crown Prince's trusted aide. Now that Marquis Hun Tian died at my hands, could it be that the Crown Prince is here to punish me?" Chu Yunfan's lips curled into a faint smile.
"Of course not!"
Yang Yi shook his head. "Although the previous matter caused the Marquis to misunderstand the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince is magnanimous and won't bother with the Marquis. As long as the Marquis is willing to serve the Crown Prince, everything that happened in the past can be written off!"
Chu Yunfan looked at the White-robed Marquis Yang Yi, a mocking smile flashing on his lips. He couldn't help but shake his head. Although he had never met the Crown Prince, he could already see many things.
Harsh and merciless!
As his trusted aide, Li Qianyuan had done so many things for him. Now, not long after his death, the Crown Prince wanted to recruit Li Qianyuan's mortal enemy.
He wanted to appear courteous, but he was also arrogant. He didn't even want to personally pay a visit. Whether it was because of his arrogance, or because he felt that Chu Yunfan was only so-so, or because he was afraid of rumors, or because he was overcautious, he wasn't the type to do great things.
No wonder he had occupied the position of Crown Prince. He was born with the title of Crown Prince, but he still had so many brothers and sisters challenging him.
This in itself was a sign that he wasn't compatible with his position!
Being conferred the title of Crown Prince was already an innate advantage. The gap between him and the others had widened to an extreme. Even at this stage, he still couldn't control his brothers and sisters.
Such a person wanted to subdue him, Chu Yunfan?
What a joke!
"If that's what the Marquis wants to say, then please leave!" Chu Yunfan shook his head.
"What did you say?" Yang Yi was stunned. He never expected that Chu Yunfan would actually reject him.
One must know how powerful the Crown Prince's faction was. Even the matter of Li Qianyuan colluding with the Demon God Sect and the Demon Race was settled. Who knew how many people wanted to board the Crown Prince's ship, but they weren't qualified.
In his opinion, it was impossible for anyone to reject him. This was also the reason why he couldn't wait to agree to the Crown Prince's request.
Furthermore, Chu Yunfan had offended the Crown Prince. Now that the Crown Prince had said that he would let bygones be bygones, shouldn't he happily join the Crown Prince's faction?
"Don't tell me you don't understand what I'm saying?" Chu Yunfan asked.
"Marquis, you have to think this through. Even if you come from the Flying Immortal Sect, I'm afraid that the Flying Immortal Sect won't be able to protect you in the face of the Crown Prince's wrath!" Yang Yi said coldly.
Yang Yi still had some doubts in his eyes. Based on the information he had received, it didn't seem like Chu Yunfan had already joined Princess Yunyang. Otherwise, the Crown Prince wouldn't have sent him to recruit Chu Yunfan.
Yang Yi's expression amused Chu Yunfan. Although they were both Marquis Godfiends, their horizons were too different. Their worldviews were also completely different.
Yang Yi believed that joining the Crown Prince would allow him to secure a better future. However, for Chu Yunfan, he didn't need to rely on anyone to obtain what he wanted.
"Are you threatening me?" Chu Yunfan sneered.
"You can think of it that way. Not everyone can reject the Crown Prince's good intentions!" Yang Yi said icily.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that it was difficult for him to even breathe. A palm formed from spiritual energy directly grabbed his neck. The grip became tighter and tighter, like a pair of iron pincers, firmly grasping his neck.
Just as Yang Yi thought that he was going to be strangled to death, he saw Chu Yunfan fling his arm and Yang Yi's entire body out of the commander's tent.
