The nobles beside Emperor Ye laughed as well. It seemed that His Majesty really liked Yu Sheng. But it was surprising that the guy who fought like a monster in human form could be so honest.
This was a rare opportunity. Many people dreamed of it. The emperor had joked that anyone who wanted to be the Emperor's son-in-law had the chance but Yu Sheng had given it up.
"You idiot," Ye Futian scolded in a low voice. However, he had a smile on his face. Looking at Emperor Ye, he said, "Yu Sheng, His Majesty is the emperor. He doesn't go back on his words. Since you're in the top three, of course, you have to state your conditions. Otherwise, His Majesty will lose face."
Ye Futian's voice rang out, and everyone was stunned again. They looked at Ye Futian in astonishment.
The handsome figure stood there quietly and looked at the emperor. His eyes were clear and open as if he was really considering for the emperor's face.
Even Emperor Ye was stunned. His eyes flashed. What he said seemed to make sense.
"You're right. Yu Sheng, if you don't state your conditions, I'll lose face. Think about it." The emperor smiled at Ye Futian and Yu Sheng. These two were really interesting.
Yu Sheng was confused. He looked at Emperor Ye and then at Ye Futian.
Hua Jieyu covered her mouth and smiled. He was still the same as before.
"Wuchen, tell me your request first," Emperor Ye looked at Ye Wuchen and said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, I want to take a look at the Imperial Library," Ye Wuchen said to the emperor.
Emperor Ye's eyes flashed. Smiling, he said, "You sure know how to make requests. Okay, I agree."
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Ye Wuchen said.
Finally, Emperor Ye looked at Ye Futian and asked, "Ye Futian, what about you?"
"Your Majesty, I want to treat my master's injuries," Ye Futian said. His eyes were filled with anticipation. He had attended the Fenghua Banquet for this very reason.
Many people were surprised. Ye Futian was so talented. Who was his master? Also, he seemed to be injured and wanted the emperor to treat him.
"Where is your master? How is he injured?" the emperor asked.
Ye Futian looked back at the crowd and called, "Masteress."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nandou Wenyin and Tang Lan walked out of the crowd. They supported Hua Fengliu and walked through the air to the Fenghua Platform.
Many people were stunned by the appearance of these three people. Not to mention their talents, Ye Futian's group looked too monstrous.
Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu's good looks went without saying. Out of the three people who had appeared, Hua Fengliu was as handsome as jade. Nandou Wenyin, who was beside him, was elegant and noble. Her looks were not inferior to the Emperor's Queen. Tang Lan was also very good-looking.
"Father, Mother." Hua Jieyu walked forward, and everyone immediately understood the relationship between them. No wonder Hua Jieyu was so beautiful.
She then looked at Ye Futian. So this guy had lied to Master's daughter. Amazing.
At the same time, they vaguely guessed the reason why Ye Futian was able to shine at the Fenghua Banquet. It turned out that he was attending for his master.
"My teacher's Life Soul was once crippled by someone. Later, he forcefully condensed his Life Soul to fight, causing great damage to his psyche." Ye Futian said, "I heard that only a Spiritual Elemental Healing Sorcerer can cure my teacher's injury. Please, Your Majesty."
"Can you still release your Life Soul?" the Emperor asked Hua Fengliu.
Hua Fengliu nodded slightly. Then, there was a flash of light. His Life Soul appeared, but no one could see it. They only saw some broken pieces, like pieces of a guqin. Many people thought of Ye Futian's profession in musical sorcery and immediately guessed that Hua Fengliu was a musical sorcerer.
Emperor Ye naturally saw through it. He nodded and said, "No problem. His injury can be cured."
Although Ye Futian had already expected this ending, he still smiled brightly when he heard it from the Emperor. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Didn't you say that an emperor does not go back on his words? Since I promised you, I will," the Emperor said with a smile. Ye Futian saw the Emperor's eyes and smiled. How could he hide his little thoughts from the Emperor?
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Hua Jieyu also thanked the Emperor. Her father's injury could finally be cured. Nandou Wenyin and Tang Lan smiled at Hua Fengliu and then at Ye Futian, gratified.
Hua Fengliu himself was very calm, but he also felt warm inside. Although this disciple was a bit shameless, he still liked him. Who asked Ye Futian to be like him?
"Yu Sheng, have you thought it through?" the Emperor asked Yu Sheng again.
Yu Sheng's gaze fell on Ye Futian. "I want to find my teacher."
Ye Futian immediately understood what Yu Sheng meant. Thinking of Yi Xiang, his eyes were also filled with nostalgia. That old fox would definitely be fine.
"Let me say it," Ye Futian said. From the Emperor's attitude today, even if he revealed his identity, there wouldn't be any problems. After all, the two countries were enemies.
"Yes." Yu Sheng nodded.
Ye Futian looked at the Emperor and said, "I first want to ask for Your Majesty's forgiveness."
Emperor Ye looked at him in confusion. Forgiveness again? These guys seemed to have some secret.
"Go ahead. I won't blame you," the Emperor said.
"We are not from the Cangye Kingdom," Ye Futian said. As soon as he said this, the entire place went silent. Many people who were smiling and talking immediately shut their mouths, staring at Ye Futian's group.
At the Fenghua Banquet, Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, and Hua Jieyu had all displayed their talents. Now, they were saying that they were not from the Cangye Kingdom.
In the top three, they had two spots. To the geniuses of the Cangye Kingdom, this was a slap in the face.
Emperor Ye's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal. With such talent and not from the Cangye Kingdom, there must be a reason they came to the Fenghua Banquet.
"Continue," Emperor Ye said.
"We are from the Donghai City of the East Sea Prefecture of the Nandou Nation," Ye Futian continued. The surrounding space was in an uproar. The Nandou Nation was the enemy of the Cangye Kingdom. People from the enemy country had come to the Fenghua Banquet and shone so brightly.
"I used to cultivate in the Donghai Academy of the East Sea Prefecture but on the last day of the Divine Prefecture Calendar, Emperor Luo suddenly gave the order to kill us. It was the elders who risked their lives to protect us and let us escape safely until we came to the Cangye Kingdom," Ye Futian continued.
Emperor Ye nodded lightly. His gaze fell on Hua Jieyu and he smiled. "No wonder I found her life spirit familiar. She must have an extraordinary background."
"My masteress is from the former royal Nandou clan of the Nandou Nation but they were also ordered to kill us." Seeing that Emperor Ye had guessed it, Ye Futian didn't hide anything. Such a big thing happened in the East Sea Prefecture. If Emperor Ye wanted to investigate, it would be easy. It was better to be honest.
"Former royal family. Looks like she was a princess." Emperor Ye smiled and continued asking, "What does this have to do with Yu Sheng's request?"
"Yu Sheng's teacher is also one of my elders. He used to be the headmaster of the Donghai Academy's School of the Finance Star, Yi Xiang. To protect us and fight the people who were chasing us, Yu Sheng must be worried about him. His request is that Your Majesty can help him find his teacher," Ye Futian said.
Emperor Ye's gaze fell on Yu Sheng. Yu Sheng nodded.
In the distance, Yi Qingxuan's eyes were red. These days, she had been worried about her father and hoped that Emperor Ye would agree.
Countless eyes fell on Emperor Ye, including Ye Futian and Yu Sheng. Although they were from the Nandou Nation, they were being chased by the Nandou Nation. Since that was the case, Emperor Ye wouldn't blame them. According to Ye Futian's judgment, Emperor Ye would agree. However, he was still worried that Emperor Ye wouldn't nod.
Emperor Ye stared at the group before him. The geniuses of the Nandou Nation, the descendants of the former royal family. Also, why did the emperor of the Nandou Nation kill these young people? He could guess the reason why the emperor would issue an edict to deal with these young people. Unless he thought that Ye Futian and the others were a threat to the royal family.
"For cultivators, the country cannot restrict them. Although you are from the Nandou Nation, since you are here in the Cangye Kingdom, you are part of the Cangye Kingdom," Emperor Ye said slowly with a smile. "The Nandou Nation cannot accept you. It is their loss."
Hearing the emperor's words, Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, and the others relaxed.
Emperor Ye looked at Ye Futian and smiled. "Your and Yu Sheng's requests are not difficult. I agree. Also, the three of you are in the top five of the Fenghua Rank. You and Yu Sheng have both requested it. I will give your rewards to Hua Jieyu. She is a descendant of the former royal family of the Nandou Nation and a princess. She has fallen into trouble in the Cangye Kingdom. Since this is the case, I will grant her the title of a foreign princess. She can enter and leave the palace freely. What do you think?"
With Emperor Ye's insight, he could naturally see that Ye Futian was the center of the group. Hua Jieyu was his girlfriend and Yu Sheng seemed to listen to him. Even his master and masteress seemed to trust him. That was why he was asking Ye Futian.
The surrounding people were shocked. The emperor was going to grant Hua Jieyu the title of princess.
The emperor said that Ye Futian and the others would be given to Hua Jieyu alone. The first, third, and fourth place of the Fenghua Rank. It was reasonable for the three of them to receive such an honor.
After a while, many people woke up from their shock and immediately understood the emperor's intentions. They looked at him with admiration. The emperor of the Nandou Nation was hunting someone but the emperor of the Cangye Kingdom was rewarding her, even making her a princess. Not only did this win the hearts of the people, it also showed the emperor's generosity. This would probably become a legend.
Ye Futian naturally understood the emperor's intentions. Not only did Emperor Ye not care about his identity of the Nandou Nation, he even made Hua Jieyu a princess. Although it might only be a title, it represented the emperor's attitude. At the same time, they needed to see his attitude.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Ye Futian bowed without hesitation.
