When the nine forces arrived, the nine tribes under Emperor Kua's command immediately went to invite the cultivators of the other forces.
The Nanli Clan chose to cooperate with the people of Saint Chiming, and the Zhu Clan waited for the people they were waiting for. In fact, there were only the other seven tribes.
The Chong Clan went to invite the people of Emperor Dong's Palace, and the two sides reached an agreement.
The Chong Clan was also one of the top tribes among the nine. They were very powerful, and their alliance with Emperor Dong's Palace was also a powerful alliance. People in Emperor Kua's City talked about them and thought highly of them. They were a team that could compete with the Zhu Clan and the princess of Emperor Wu.
Later, there was news that the Raven Clan and the people of Saint Jiuyou had joined forces.
Ye Futian had been staying in the inn, and as the news came in, he felt a little helpless. According to Shen Tianzhan, among the nine major tribes, the stronger ones seemed to have decided to join forces with others, and no one came to invite him.
Obviously, he was not the first choice of the nine tribes.
He heard from Shen Tianzhan that the nine tribes valued the cultivation of fire. Perhaps, apart from not knowing his strength, the others were all from the top fire families in the Crimson Dragon Realm.
Even the descendants of Renhuang who were good at fire, such as the princess of Emperor Wu and the prince from Emperor Dong's Palace.
Even the others were the descendants of the top fire families. The Pang Clan of Crimson Cloud City came from the Crimson Cloud Realm and was a descendant of Renhuang.
Furthermore, the Xi clan and the Chang clan of Jianmu City were both top-notch fire-elemental clans. Flaming Prison City specialized in hellfire. Although it was one of the weaker factions among the nine, it was still a top-notch faction that specialized in fire-elemental arts.
Ye Futian was the only one who didn't know or see how he could use fire. That was probably why the top tribes did not dare to bet on him. After all, he was obviously not the first choice.
On this day, people from the nine tribes finally came to visit Ye Futian. The first to arrive was an elder from the Beili tribe. The cultivator from the Beili tribe had a strange aura about him. He was considered average among the nine tribes. The elder wore a long robe and held a scepter in his hand. He said to Ye Futian, "The Beili tribe would like to invite you to enter the ruins with us. What do you think, City Lord Ye?"
The Beili tribe did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point, inviting Ye Futian to enter the relic with them.
"Why did you choose me?" Ye Futian did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked with a smile.
"City Lord Ye is the one who has obtained Emperor Kua's Flames of the Way, so the nine tribes are hesitant. I'm sure you understand this, City Lord Ye. Now, the princess of Emperor Wu and the princes of Emperor Dong's Palace have all decided to join forces with the nine tribes. We, the Beili Tribe, would like to try our luck on you. If you agree, we will do our best to assist you in the ruins," said the elder.
Ye Futian's mind was as clear as a mirror. The best choices had already been taken by the top few tribes. His Beili tribe was in an awkward position, so they decided to bet on him. Just like what the other party had said, he was the one with the least information. The Beili tribe wanted to test him, not because they truly believed in his abilities.
However, Ye Futian did not mind. He was not so pretentious as to think that the nine tribes should have absolute trust in him.
Trust itself was built on the basis of strength. He had not even shown his strength, so how could he gain the trust of others?
Just as Ye Futian was about to agree, a voice was heard.
"City Lord Ye, the Wu tribe invites you to join forces again." At that moment, the grey-robed elder who had invited Ye Futian to the statue of Emperor Kua appeared again and said to Ye Futian.
Ye Futian looked at him and then at the Beili tribe. He was a little hesitant.
"City Lord Ye, we will travel with the Zhu tribe on this trip. We will take care of each other, so we should have a better chance. The Zhu tribe actually wants you to assist the princess of Emperor Wu. Of course, if you are strong enough, there is no need to help or not. You will be able to gain something from the relic. We will just see it as a simple alliance."
The grey-robed elder of the Wu tribe said to Ye Futian telepathically, "In this way, as long as you can gain something, the Wu tribe will do our best. Of course, if you don't gain anything, it doesn't matter. We don't have to do anything in the first place."
Ye Futian was surprised when he heard the elder's telepathic message. The Wu tribe seemed to be supporting the Zhu tribe. This should be known by many. But now it seemed that the Wu tribe was not so simple. They had come to invite him and told him the truth, which seemed very honest.
If the Zhu tribe and the Wu tribe joined forces, it would be more advantageous for him in the relic if he went with them. Before, Shen Tianzhan had also reminded him that it was best to join forces with the top tribes of the nine tribes.
Seeing Ye Futian's hesitation, the cultivator of the Beili tribe looked at him and said, "City Lord Ye, you can decide for yourself. It doesn't matter which side you choose."
The Beili tribe had come to find Ye Futian because they wanted to gamble on him. If the invitation failed, they would change to someone else.
Before entering the relic, no one could say for sure.
"Alright." Ye Futian nodded and said, "The elders of the Wu tribe have invited me before. This is the second time, so I should consider the Wu tribe first. Please forgive me, Elder Beili."
"No problem." The cultivator of the Beili tribe nodded and said, "Then, we will meet again in the relic."
After saying this, he turned around and left, very decisively.
After the cultivator of the Beili tribe left, Ye Futian looked at the grey-robed elder and said, "Why did you invite me a second time?"
Although several cultivators had already been invited, the Wu tribe did not have no other choice. They did not think highly of him, so he did not know why the elder had come twice and even told him some secrets.
"City Lord Ye, the princess of Emperor Wu mentioned you," the grey-robed elder said with a smile. The grey-robed elder smiled and said, "However, I hope you won't mention what I said to you today."
"I understand." Ye Futian nodded. He was not so tasteless as to betray others.
However, why did the Martial Emperor Princess deliberately mention him?
He had asked Shen Tianzhan. The princess's surname was Yin, not Wu. It was only because her father was titled Emperor Wu that the realm he ruled was called Emperor Wu's Realm. But in fact, the princess's name was Yin Tianjiao, which had the same pronunciation as geniuses. It could be said that Emperor Wu had high hopes for her.
Yin Tianjiao lived up to her name. She was extremely talented and came to the Crimson Dragon Realm to cultivate because she was skilled in flames. She entered the Regional Palace and was quite famous in Crimson Dragon City.
Thinking of the Regional Palace, Ye Futian wondered if Yin Tianjiao had mentioned him because of Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng had entered the Regional Palace to cultivate, so he must have interacted with the cultivators there. He wondered if he had come into contact with Yin Tianjiao.
"In that case, I will take my leave. I will send someone to find you before we leave," said the grey-robed elder. Seeing Ye Futian nod, he left.
After he left, a group of people came from behind Ye Futian. Xia Qingyuan, Shen Tianzhan, and the others were all there.
The nine tribes had chosen their partners, and everyone was looking forward to it. When everything was confirmed, it would be the day to leave.
On this day, the grey-robed elder of the Wu tribe came to invite Ye Futian and the others to leave.
The group left the inn in a mighty procession and headed in one direction. Not only them, but the nine tribes also set off at the same time, heading west of Emperor Kua's City.
The nine tribes were not in Emperor Kua's City. That city had been Emperor Kua's territory. Later, when Emperor Kua fell, the nine tribes began to infiltrate Emperor Kua's City. But their headquarters were in the surrounding areas of Emperor Kua's City. The nine tribes almost ruled the western region, and they were heading in the direction of an area surrounded by the nine tribes.
It was an endless wasteland, with deserts and castles. The scorching sun shone down, and the heat waves seemed to bake the earth.
Moreover, the deeper they went into the area, the hotter it became. It was as if flames covered the entire sky and earth, and they could feel the flames on the ground.
In this fiery wasteland, there was a place where statues stood. The largest statue was that of Emperor Kua. There were many other statues around the statue of Emperor Kua, all of which were the cultivators who had followed Emperor Kua in the past. They were the ancestors of the nine tribes.
In the middle of these statues, there was a door in the void.
This was the ruins of Emperor Kua.
The people of the Crimson Dragon Realm knew that this was not only the ruins of Emperor Kua, but also the ancestral land of the nine tribes. They had come from here, sweeping through the western region of the Crimson Dragon Realm and ruling over a region.
But this ancestral land had gone through the changes of the ages, but it had always stood there and had never been destroyed.
Outside the ancestral land, there were many cultivators of the nine tribes guarding there.
At this time, many cultivators of the forces of the Crimson Dragon Realm had come. Some of them were from top fire clans, but they had not obtained the Flames of the Way. But some of them had entered the ancestral land before.
When Ye Futian and the others arrived, many cultivators had already arrived. Almost all of the nine tribes had arrived.
They landed on the ground and walked in one direction. In that direction, the cultivators of the Zhu tribe and Yin Tianjiao were together, attracting many people's attention.
Yin Tianjiao was famous in Crimson Dragon City, and she was cultivating in the Regional Palace. It could be said that she was dazzling.
Other than Yin Tianjiao, the most eye-catching person was the prince of Emperor Dong's Palace. Emperor Dong's Palace was a local Renhuang force of the Crimson Dragon Realm, and now ruled the boundless eastern region of the Crimson Dragon Realm. There, they were the absolute kings, and the Crimson Dragon Emperor would not interfere with the rule of Emperor Dong's Palace.
Emperor Dong's Palace had been as famous as Emperor Kua's Hall. Now that the prince of Emperor Dong's Palace was going to enter the ruins of Emperor Kua, many people were looking forward to seeing what would happen this time.
Moreover, among the nine tribes, the Zhong tribe was allied with Prince Dong's Palace. They were very powerful, and their strength was definitely among the top three of the nine tribes.
These two sides were naturally the most eye-catching!
