Ye Futian came to the back of the mountain in the Cottage Villa.
In the back of the mountain, a quiet figure sat cross-legged, cultivating with her eyes closed. The wind blew past, blowing her long hair. It was Yaya, and she had woken up.
Ye Futian walked to Yaya's side and saw that she had opened her eyes. Her aura was still not as stable as before.
"How are you?" Ye Futian asked.
"Nothing much. It's just that the cultivation of the past few years has been a waste. I need to start from the first level of Saint Plane again," Yaya said softly as if she did not care at all.
In the battle with Cao Kong, with her restored level, it was not enough to stop Cao Kong, who was in the Holiness of Nirvana Plane. She had to return to her peak. She had also paid a great price in this battle, and her cultivation of the past few years had been destroyed.
Ye Futian sat beside her and handed her a storage ring.
"What is it?" Yaya looked at him and asked.
"You cultivate the power of the Great Path of Space. These are all fragments of the Great Path of Space attribute. It should help you cultivate faster," Ye Futian said.
Yaya looked at him and said, "Keep it for your own cultivation."
"You have already comprehended enough. You just lack the level. You will improve faster if you use it." Ye Futian reached out and took her hand, then put the storage ring in her palm and said, "Otherwise, can you still count on me in such a situation again?"
Yaya looked up at him and saw him smile. He closed her hand and said softly, "Cultivate well. I still need your protection in the future."
As he said this, he got up and left. When he turned around, his eyes suddenly became cold. There was news from the outside that Xiao Sheng had colluded with Emperor Li's Realm. If that was the case, he deserved to die.
Even though he had stood in Xiao Sheng's way, he had still done his best for the Battle of Empty Realm and won the Battle of Empty Realm for Emperor Xia's Realm. If Xiao Sheng wanted to get rid of him, he could have done it openly and openly, or even colluded with Emperor Li's Realm.
If not Xiao Sheng, then who should be killed?
Of course, there seemed to be something strange about this. If Xiao Sheng had really defected and had colluded with Emperor Li's Realm, why would such news suddenly come out? With the status and background of the Xiao clan in Emperor Xia's Realm, there were not many forces in Emperor Xia's Realm who would dare to spread such news. Otherwise, if the Xiao clan found out, they would not let it go.
Unless, Li Yao did it intentionally?
So what was Li Yao's purpose?
Deliberately provoking the conflict between him and Xiao Sheng in order to offend the Xiao clan, who stood at the top of Emperor Xia's Realm?
The Xiao clan was a relative of the emperor.
If he were to make a move on Xiao Sheng, it would mean that Li Yao had achieved his goal. Furthermore, he had to do it.
This move could be said to be extremely vicious and sinister.
However, even if he knew, would he let Xiao Sheng go?
But for now, it was better to wait for news. After all, Xiao Sheng's status was there, and Xia Qingyuan was investigating the matter. He naturally would not act impulsively and overstep his bounds. That would only make things difficult for Xia Qingyuan.
"Huff …" Ye Futian exhaled, feeling rather stifled. He felt that while Xiao Sheng was guilty, the chances of Xia Qingyuan taking his life were slim. One could even say that it was almost impossible.
After all, he was the grandson of Xia Qingyuan's maternal grandfather, the son of her uncle, and the nephew of her mother, Queen Xiao.
These identities were all connected to each other by blood. Even though Xia Qingyuan was a princess, she was still constrained. She could be punished, but it would be difficult to kill her!
After Ye Futian left, he went to check on his Big Brother, the Sword Saint, and the others.
…
While Ye Futian was thinking about this, Xiao Sheng's father, Xiao Qianhe, had already brought Xiao Sheng to the palace to see Queen Xiao, who was Xiao Qianhe's sister.
After entering the palace, Xiao Qianhe had Xiao Sheng tell him everything honestly. He naturally knew that such a thing could not be hidden. Although Queen Xiao was his sister, she was still a concubine. If he even lied to Queen Xiao, the consequences would only be worse. If he confessed and asked for forgiveness, his aunt would not have executed her nephew over such a small matter.
Looking at the matter carefully, Xiao Sheng was indeed a bit confused. Fortunately, he could be said to have been used, and he had not actually had any contact with Li Yao. It could only be said that he had borrowed Li Yao's power to kill Ye Futian, but it had still failed. Ye Futian and the others were fine in the end.
But even so, when Xiao Qianhe left the palace, his expression was still very cold. Xiao Sheng lowered his head and said nothing, knowing that his future was probably over.
At that moment, in the palace, Xia Qingyuan came to Queen Xiao's palace. She looked at her mother and asked, "Uncle came?"
Obviously, she already knew that Xiao Qianhe and Xiao Sheng had come.
"Your uncle wanted to see you, but I knew that you were in a bad mood, so I didn't let him and Xiao Sheng go." Queen Xiao looked at her daughter and smiled softly. "Are you still worried about this?"
"There are rumors out there that Xiao Sheng colluded with Emperor Li's Realm," said Xia Qingyuan.
"Do you think your cousin is so stupid?" Queen Xiao said to Xia Qingyuan. "Who is he? Colluding with Emperor Li's Realm, even if he killed Ye Futian, what kind of crime would that be?"
"All these years, I naturally understand what your uncle and your cousin have been thinking, but everything is up to you. You have been like your father since you were young, always very assertive, and I rarely interfered with your decisions. Xiao Sheng was eager for success, perhaps because he was jealous of Ye Futian's place in your heart, thinking that what should have been his was taken away by Ye Futian, so he wanted Ye Futian dead. But how would he dare to collude with Emperor Li's Realm? It's just that the people of Emperor Li's Realm took advantage of his mentality."
Queen Xiao continued, "Just now, your uncle and Xiao Sheng came and told me everything he did. Someone did send him a message saying that you would be attacked. He probably wanted to achieve his own goal, so he transferred away the people you sent to Ye Futian's side. But no matter what, Xiao Sheng would never dare to do anything to hurt you. Otherwise, even if your uncle came to plead, I would have killed him myself."
Xia Qingyuan was silent. Just as she had expected, her mother was right. She did not interfere in any of her decisions, and everything was up to her.
But the relationship of blood could not be severed.
Her uncle came to plead, and her mother spoke up for Xiao Sheng.
"Tell me, Qingyuan, is Ye Futian important in your heart?" Queen Xiao asked.
Xia Qingyuan looked up at Queen Xiao. She remembered that the first few times she saw Ye Futian, she had always disliked that arrogant guy, but later in the battle of the Imperial Mausoleum, she lost to Ye Futian and acknowledged his strength.
Everything that happened later, she gradually recognized and even accepted Ye Futian. Ye Futian's position in her heart had been quietly changing, and this change did not happen overnight.
Seeing Xia Qingyuan's silence, Queen Xiao smiled and said, "You directly sent people to investigate the Xiao clan, not even giving face to your grandfather, just to help him vent his anger?"
"The Battle of Empty Realm was single-handedly forged by him, allowing Emperor Xia's Realm to take control of the Empty Realm for ten years without bloodshed, but not long after they took control, the greatest contributor was assassinated, and now there is news that Xiao Sheng colluded with Emperor Li's Realm. As the leader of the Battle of Empty Realm, how can I not investigate this matter and give everyone an explanation?"
Xia Qingyuan said, "If this matter is over, wouldn't it be bitterly disappointing?"
Queen Xiao walked step by step to Xia Qingyuan. She smiled softly and looked at her daughter. "Qingyuan, you have grown up, do you still plan to wear men's clothes in the future? It's time to return to being a girl. "
She naturally knew how beautiful her daughter was.
She also knew that her daughter Xia Qingyuan was lonely. She was of noble birth, the youngest daughter of Emperor Xia, a combination of talent and beauty, and deeply loved by her father.
Since she was a child, who did not speak to her with respect?
No one of her generation dared to look her in the eye, even the proud sons of Emperor Xia's Realm.
Only Ye Futian was different. It was said that this guy was not at all restrained in front of her daughter, and his talent was no less than Xia Qingyuan's.
Perhaps his appearance made Xia Qingyuan feel that she was not so lonely, that there were people like her in this world.
Naturally, Ye Futian had a certain place in her heart.
"Mother …" Xia Qingyuan looked at Queen Xiao. Her mother was clearly changing the subject.
"Go and arrange for Ye Futian to come to the palace. I want to see him," Queen Xiao said softly to Xia Qingyuan. Queen Xiao whispered to Xia Qingyuan. She had seen him once at her father's birthday banquet, and he had left some impression on her.
"Don't investigate your grandfather anymore. Your uncle would not lie to me no matter what," Queen Xiao continued. Xia Qingyuan sighed. Her mother was going to personally mediate the matter.
However, with Ye Futian's temperament, how could he accept it?
She knew very well how stubborn that guy was.
…
Someone from Emperor Xia's Palace came to the Cottage and sent word that Queen Xiao had summoned him.
Ye Futian immediately understood that the people of the Xiao clan had looked for Queen Xiao, and it was roughly the same as he had guessed.
Queen Xiao was the first beauty of Emperor Xia's Realm, and Emperor Xia doted on her. She was also Xia Qingyuan's biological mother, so one could imagine how important she was.
Xia Qingyuan was investigating Xiao Sheng, and now there were rumors that Xiao Sheng had colluded with the enemy of Emperor Li's Realm. It was natural for the Xiao clan to ask Queen Xiao for help.
Since Queen Xiao had summoned him, it was obvious that it was for this matter.
However, Queen Xiao had summoned him personally, which showed that she valued him quite a bit. Otherwise, as a valet of the princess, what would he dare to do if Queen Xiao gave an order? What could he do?
In the villa, many people came to Ye Futian's side. Even the Sword Saint, who had not yet recovered, came. He looked at Ye Futian and said, "Futian, the Queen has summoned you. Do not offend her. I know you can't let go of the matter of Xiao Sheng, but we can talk about it later. Don't get into any trouble with the Queen."
The Sword Saint was naturally doing this for Ye Futian's own good. Emperor Xia and the princess were both good to Ye Futian. If Ye Futian and Queen Xiao had a conflict, it would obviously be very unfavorable for Ye Futian.
"Don't worry, Eldest Brother. I know what I'm doing." Ye Futian sighed inwardly. Eldest Brother had been seriously injured because of Xiao Sheng, but he still advised him to bear it!
