Ye Futian went to collect his bets. This time, almost everyone who had placed their bets was wiped out.
Ye Futian, Kong Xuan, Shen Jun, and Situ Yan were the only ones who managed to make it. In the past, there would have been several people who were the most popular in the Battle of the Sleeping Dragon. The Battle of the Sleeping Dragon might have had many variables, but most of the time, at least one of them would have been able to make it.
A situation like this was quite rare. It could really be said that the entire army had been wiped out.
Ye Futian thought to himself that the Crimson Dragon Emperor had earned a lot of resources from the Battle of the Sleeping Dragon this time. It was no wonder that the Crimson Dragon Emperor came here once a month.
If he was in charge, once every three days …
Of course, the Crimson Dragon Emperor might not care about these cultivation resources, but his subordinates would definitely consume a lot of resources.
"Brother Ye, shall we go back to Qianye City together?" Shen Jun's attitude toward Ye Futian was noticeably more polite. While he would not have thought of Xia Qingyuan as a princess for no apparent reason, since she was someone valued by the royal families of Emperor Xia's Realm and Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm, there was no doubt that her talents were exceptional.
Yu Sheng's performance was also extremely shocking.
As such, his attitude had changed somewhat. First of all, it was best not to offend these people if possible. Even if they weren't directly under Emperor Xia, they could still be very trusted subordinates.
Secondly, if he could befriend him, he might be of use in the future.
"Alright. Shall we go together, Lady Situ?" Ye Futian looked at Situ Yan and asked.
Situ Yan glared at him. This guy was a Saint Plane cultivator after all. How could he speak in such a flippant manner?
"Let's head back together, everyone. I'm about to invite Brother Ye to a banquet. I'll have a banquet at the city lord's office in a few days, and all of you will have to come," Shen Jun said with a smile. The people of Qianye City nodded one after another. It was only natural for them to show some respect.
The group took to the air and returned to Qianye City. Ye Futian walked to the Situ clan and said to Situ Yan, "I'll pay a visit to the Situ clan later and see Little Ran."
"Okay." Situ Yan nodded.
"If Young Master Ye could come, our Situ family would be greatly honored." The performance of Yu Sheng and the others in the Battle of the Sleeping Dragon aside, Ye Futian and his party had annihilated those from the Bliss Palace.
The Situ clan and the Bliss Palace were both top-notch forces in Qianye City, and their powers were about the same.
"You're too kind, Senior." Ye Futian smiled and nodded.
"Brother Ye is indeed a sentimental person." Shen Jun, who was in front, turned around and smiled. Ye Futian was still thinking about that little girl. While he could not agree with that, he had to admit that Ye Futian's character was indeed better than his.
Living in a place as chaotic as the Crimson Dragon Realm, cultivators mostly thought about how to increase their powers, using all kinds of means to become more powerful, so that they could control more powerful resources.
The weak were unable to survive in the Crimson Dragon Realm.
"Why are you going to the Situ Clan?" Xia Qingyuan asked him telepathically.
"I'm going to pay a visit to the leader of the Situ Clan," Ye Futian replied. Xia Qingyuan nodded gently and did not ask any more questions.
"Mr. Ye, you are welcome to visit the Mo family if you have time," the elder of Mo Chen's family invited him as well. The Mo family was one of the top forces in Qianye City.
"Alright, I'll definitely be there," Ye Futian replied with a smile.
"It's a deal." The cultivator did not expect Ye Futian to agree so readily, which surprised him.
"It's a deal." Ye Futian's smile was warm, making people feel very comfortable.
"Brother Ye, you'll be staying in Qianye City from now on. It'll be good for you to travel more. I'm planning to introduce the various forces in Qianye City to you, Brother Ye," Shen Jun smiled and said.
"I'll be troubling you then, Young City Lord," Ye Futian replied.
"It's my pleasure. Brother Ye is one of us from now on. If you run into anything in Qianye City, you can come to me," Shen Jun said very politely.
"Indeed. There's something I'd like to trouble you with, Brother Shen. I'll go to the City Lord's Office next time," Ye Futian nodded seriously and said.
"No problem," Shen Jun smiled and said. He was wondering if Ye Futian would be able to completely let go of his grudge against him.
It was obvious that Ye Futian would have been dissatisfied with the matter. It would have been good if he could have asked for something from him, and he would have done his best to help.
Everyone went their separate ways after returning from Crimson Dragon City to Qianye City. Shen Jun returned to the City Lord's Office, while Ye Futian returned to the inn.
News of the Battle of the Sleeping Dragon came back as well, shocking many people.
Among the group that destroyed the Bliss Palace, there were actually geniuses of Sage Plane, who were able to sweep away all top-notch figures who participated in the Battle of the Sleeping Dragon.
Ye Futian and Yu Sheng's names were well known in Qianye City.
Ye Futian brought a few people with him to visit the Situ clan the next day.
Many from the Situ clan came to greet them. Situ Yan showed up with Little Ran as well.
"Uncle Ye," Little Ran greeted him obediently and smiled brightly.
Ye Futian hugged Little Ran, then looked at the people from the Situ clan and said, "You're too kind, everyone."
"A banquet has been prepared for our esteemed guests. Please, Mr. Ye," someone said.
Ye Futian smiled and nodded. He walked to Situ Yan's side and said, "I'd like to meet the clan leader of the Situ clan."
"Very well, I'll let my grandfather know." Situ Yan nodded.
The host and guests took their seats at the banquet of the Situ clan after a while. An elderly man walked in, carrying a majestic aura about him.
Ye Futian got up and bowed, saying, "Greetings, senior."
Situ Zhong smiled and nodded, saying, "I've heard of your reputation at home, Brother Ye. There's no need to stand on ceremony. Please, take a seat."
"Thank you, senior." Ye Futian said, "Miss Situ is a forthright and chivalrous person. Now that you've met the old man, I'm not surprised."
"You're too kind, little brother. You're the one who killed your way into the Bliss Palace for a girl. You're the one who's truly a hero. We old folks are just a little older, but the world will be yours sooner or later." Situ Zhong's voice was very bold, sounding like a bell and filled with vigor.
"I was just angry." Ye Futian smiled and said, "Bai Ze's actions were too hateful."
"Trampling on the lives of others is indeed despicable, but the world of cultivators has always been like this. Even if you wanted to change, how many people could you kill?" Situ Zhong, who had cultivated to his age, had long seen the ways of the world.
In this world, there were all kinds of cultivators.
"Indeed." Ye Futian nodded. "But since I'm here, I'll do what I can. That's why I came to visit the old man today."
"What do you mean?" Situ Zhong looked at Ye Futian.
"The Crimson Dragon Realm is rich in resources, and people from all realms gather here. There are bound to be many with exceptional talents. Perhaps they just lack opportunities. I'd like to build a place for training in Qianye City. What do you think, senior?" Ye Futian said.
Situ Zhong looked surprised when he heard what Ye Futian said. It was apparent that he was very surprised.
The movement of cultivators in the cities of the Crimson Dragon Realm was very high because mighty ones from all realms gathered there. Even those who controlled a city could leave at any time to train in other realms.
Ye Futian's idea was rare in the Crimson Dragon Realm.
It was especially so when the cities of the Crimson Dragon Realm were all very unstable. Who would waste resources to build a place for training?
"Little Brother Ye, the situation in the Crimson Dragon Realm is very complicated. The movement of people in the cities is very unstable. Your idea will take a long time to see results. But in Qianye City, only those who can stay for a long time are those who have taken root," Situ Zhong said.
"It is precisely because of this that I came to discuss with you. Training and preaching will also be of great benefit to the development of Qianye City. If forces like the Situ family are willing to join us and Qianye City becomes stronger in the future, the Situ family will certainly follow suit and prosper."
"Why do you want to do this?" Situ Zhong asked. For Ye Futian, doing such a thing did not seem to have much meaning.
"To integrate and condense the power of Qianye City, and in the future, to make Qianye City the top city in the Crimson Dragon Realm." Ye Futian said, "Of course, I may not be the one doing these things. I just have this idea."
"This needs the cooperation of the City Lord. I'm afraid the Situ family is not enough," Situ Zhong said. He faintly felt that Ye Futian must have wanted to do other things to achieve this goal.
Moreover, Ye Futian still lacked a real reason. Why would he want to integrate and develop Qianye City?
"Senior, let me formally introduce someone to you." Ye Futian looked at Xia Qingyuan beside him and said, "This is the princess of Emperor Xia's Realm, Xia Qingyuan."
Situ Zhong's eyes froze and looked at Xia Qingyuan. He vaguely understood Ye Futian's purpose for doing this.
If that was the case, the reason was indeed enough.
Many other Renhuang Realms of the Crimson Dragon Region had come to Crimson Dragon Realm to develop their forces. For example, the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm that Kong Xuan came from had also taken control of Peacock City.
If Emperor Xia's Realm wanted to take control of a city, there was, of course, enough reason to gather and develop the power of a city.
Situ Yan also looked at Xia Qingyuan with some shock, as well as many others from the Situ family.
Xia Qingyuan, the woman who had been following Ye Futian, was actually the princess of Emperor Xia's Realm?
If that was the case, then what exactly was Ye Futian's status in Emperor Xia's Realm?
Even the princess was by his side.
Situ Yan suddenly thought that since she had not thought about it in that way, Shen Jun must have thought about it like she did.
It seemed that the conversation between Ye Futian and Shen Jun the day before all had a deeper meaning.
"Is Emperor Xia's Realm planning to develop in Qianye City?" Situ Zhong looked at Xia Qingyuan and asked.
"Please support us, senior," Xia Qingyuan replied.
Situ Zhong was silent. From his point of view, he naturally had to think about the interests of his family. Whether this matter was good or bad for the Situ family.
Judging from Ye Futian's character, he should be a man of his word. He was a decent person, and he would not set them up.
If Emperor Xia's Realm was sincere in developing their forces in Qianye City, then they would obviously be more powerful than the current City Lord's Office.
"I am willing to do what I can for the princess," Situ Zhong raised his cup and said.
"Thank you, senior." Xia Qingyuan and Ye Futian raised their cups when they heard what Situ Zhong said. The matter was considered done.
If they wanted to enter Qianye City, they naturally needed the support of some top forces in the city. They did not need to take all of them down directly. This method was sometimes more useful!
