Ferdinand's principle was to take all the benefits, but he would not make any promises.
Hearing Hu Diaonan's probing, he said calmly, "You'll know when you meet the Imperial Preceptor."
Hu Diaonan sighed, and the eyes of the few warriors from the plains behind him flashed with hints of fury.
A few minutes later, the two of them arrived outside a side hall. When they opened the door, they saw a great fragrance of cosmetics coming from the courtyard. Several tens of beautiful young ladies were seated on the lawn in the courtyard.
These girls were all natural beauties. Every single one of them was enough to charm countless males. Moreover, each of them was wearing different clothes. Some of them revealed their thighs, some revealed their collarbones, and some even showed off their voluptuous breasts.
Almost every young lady was crazily exuding their sexiest and most charming side.
The few envoys from the plains had never seen such a scene before. Almost all of them were staring at the young ladies and slashing them fiercely. They could not help but gulp down their saliva.
Just then, a cold snort rang out from Ferdinand's throat. He lowered his head and said, "Watch your eyes. Don't look around."
The few of them immediately came back to their senses and lowered their heads, not daring to look too much. However, they could not help but glance around, seeing fair and tender skin and brilliant eyes.
Hu Diaonan carefully threw a glance at the surroundings. His gaze moved very quickly as he forcefully shifted his gaze away from those beautiful young ladies. He took a glance at the entire courtyard and finally understood the situation before him.
All the beautiful young ladies seemed to be seated in circles, and a black figure was sitting cross-legged in the center. The several tens of beautiful young ladies were all looking at that black figure in an infatuated manner. Their faces seemed to be filled with both sorrow and joy, revealing all sorts of complicated expressions.
They were looking at the center in an infatuated manner, as if they had not even noticed the arrival of Ferdinand and the others.
Hu Diaonan thought, 'It's said that Fang Xingjian has been obsessed with women recently and has been plundering beauties to serve him. By the looks of it, it seems that this is true?'
At the thought of this, Hu Diaonan's gaze lit up. 'I'm not afraid that you like women. I'm just afraid that you don't like anything at all.'
He knew that the Heavenly Lion King's younger sister, Da Yue`er, who was the aunt of the Steel Lion Kingdom's new Khan, was in her twenties. She was also the top beauty in the plains and was known as the Pearl of the plains.
"If we can get Da Yue`er to marry Fang Xingjian, the Royal Court's position will be unshakable."
"The current emperor of the empire, Charlot, is just a disciple of Fang Xingjian. If Da Yue`er marries Fang Xingjian, then His Majesty will be Fang Xingjian's nephew. "
Just as Hu Diaonan's thoughts were running wild, the group of people had already walked to the center of the group of beautiful young ladies. The few of them had their heads lowered, and they could only see a long black robe dragging on the ground.
Ferdinand said, "Imperial Preceptor, these are the envoys from the Plains of Grass. This is the leader of the team, Hu Diaonan."
In the next moment, an ethereal and dreamy voice rang out and entered their ears, giving them a feeling of endless yearning.
"Raise your head, let me see."
Hu Diaonan raised his head and felt as if his head had exploded.
"What kind of person is that?"
Hu Diaonan was almost unable to describe what the man he was looking at looked like. The other party's eyes, face, chest, and body … Every single part of the man was like the most magnificent gemstone in the world, exuding a soul-stirring glow.
On the man's pale face was a pair of eyes that were like black pearls. The loose black robes draped over his body casually, revealing Fang Xingjian's chest.
Hu Diaonan's gaze stared at every inch of the man's body like a greedy dog staring at a piece of fatty meat.
Each of Fang Xingjian's breaths and gaze deeply affected Hu Diaonan's state of mind. It was as if each of Fang Xingjian's slight movements could control his emotions.
The several tens of young ladies in the surroundings all wore crazed expressions. They looked greedily at the figure in the center, as if they were yearning to see every single inch of him.
Behind Hu Diaonan, the warriors from the plains who had fought bloody battles and even claimed to have the guts to attack Fang Xingjian were all kneeling on the ground, groveling at Fang Xingjian's feet like many obedient dogs trying to please their master.
Hu Diaonan did his best to control his physical body and guard his mind, preventing himself from doing anything that was out of line.
But to him, this was already his limit.
Ferdinand lowered his head, not daring to lift his head to look at Fang Xingjian. Ever since Fang Xingjian's illusory arts had reached a higher level and he continued to derive this Heart Sword Path while building his Divine Country, his Heart Sword would appear around him at almost all times. Any expert below the Divine level would be unable to control their emotions when they saw him, and all their emotions would be controlled by him.
Ferdiand had seen many people prostrating at Fang Xingjian's feet over the past few days. They were either filled with admiration, fear, or hatred. To think that Hu Diaonan was still able to control his body made him slightly surprised.
Just then, Fang Xingjian's ethereal voice once again rang out in everyone's hearts.
"Hu Diaonan? Why have you come to the Empire as a representative of the Steel Kingdom? "
Hu Diaonan said with some difficulty, "Imperial Preceptor, the plains are in a perilous situation right now. The various tribes are rebelling, and the Steel Kingdom's orders can't even leave the capital. The entire plains are in a state of misery and suffering, and the King hopes that the Empire can send people to provide assistance to the Steel Kingdom to wipe out the rebels and return peace to the plains."
Fang Xingjian said calmly, "Then let the current Great Khan come to the Imperial Capital. If he acknowledges me as his father, I'll send Prince Philip up north to suppress the rebellion."
Hearing this, Hu Diaonan, who had felt that it was hard for him to control himself earlier, was now filled with fury. What a great humiliation it was for the Khan to acknowledge Fang Xingjian as his father. It was as if Fang Xingjian had stomped on the faces of all the tribes in the plains and even trampled on them fiercely.
However, Hu Diaonan was unable to refute the current situation.
"Hmmm?" Just as Hu Diaonan was hesitating, Fang Xingjian let out a sound.
It was as if a bolt of Heavenly Thunder had rung up in Hu Diaonan's mind, and a hint of great terror rose up in his heart. It was as if the world was going to be destroyed and the end of the world had arrived. The terror that penetrated deep into his bones caused him to break out in cold sweat, and his limbs to almost turn limp.
This hint of terror was deeply rooted in his heart, causing him to be unable to say a single word when facing Fang Xingjian.
"I … I understand. I'll convey the Imperial Preceptor's intentions to the King."
Seeing that Hu Diaonan had left in a daze, Ferdinand said, "To think that these barbarians from the plains would have such a day. "However, it's true that the plains are in a state of chaos now. If order isn't restored, it'll be very disadvantageous to the Empire when it comes to seizing the plains' resources."
Ferdinand was naturally in favor of Fang Xingjian's wish to turn the Steel Lion Kingdom into the plains' spokesperson and puppet ruler. At the thought of the countless ferocious beasts, mineral resources, and large batches of slaves in the vast plains, Ferdinand could not help but feel excited.
Fang Xingjian did not say anything. He merely asked, "Is there anything else?"
Ferdinand handed over a letter and said, "After some of the traitors had their sects wiped out, they managed to avoid being hunted down and joined forces to set up an organization called Country Restoration. Tyrande feels that someone is adding fuel to the fire."
"Just kill them. There's no need to say so much."
Ferdinand nodded and continued, "Recently, there's a rumor that the treasures left behind by the Divine Sun Emperor are about to appear. There's a total of seven portions of the treasures, which are located in seven different corners of the world. "It's said that many Knights and Conferred Knights have been mobilized to search for these seven locations …"
