In Emperor Xia's palace, Ye Futian, Xia Qingyuan, and Yao Xi came to see him.
The others were outside the palace. After all, except for Ye Futian who was close to Emperor Xia, the others needed Emperor Xia's permission to see him.
Queen Xiao also came here, her eyes gentle. She had not seen her daughter for several years.
"Father, mother."
"Ye Futian greets Your Majesty, Queen." Ye Futian bowed.
"Not bad, your cultivation has improved a lot. Now that you have entered the Realm of True Self, it seems that you have gained a lot in the two years of cultivation in the Regional Palace." Emperor Xia smiled and said, "Qingyuan, you have to work hard."
Xia Qingyuan nodded slightly, but she was not interested in competing with Ye Futian.
Emperor Xia looked at Yao Xi and said, "Yao Xi, you too."
"I'm an outsider, you guys talk." Yao Xi smiled faintly, then turned around and left.
Although she also went to the Crimson Dragon Realm, Xia Qingyuan looked at her as if she was looking at a thief and was very guarded.
She called her an outsider, and it was not a lie at all. Ye Futian also avoided her, but now she had come to terms with it. Some things could not be fought for just because one wanted to.
Emperor Xia watched Yao Xi leave and felt a little helpless. Although Yao Xi had entered the palace, she probably had not completely let go of her worries.
However, she could only rely on herself, and he would not interfere.
"Qingyuan, how do you feel in the Crimson Dragon Realm?" Queen Xiao asked with a smile.
"Very good. There are more talented people in the Crimson Dragon Realm. In the Regional Palace, there are many cultivators who came from the Renhuang Realm like me," Xia Qingyuan said. A better environment was also beneficial for people's cultivation.
"You brought a group of Nirvanas back. It seems that you have had a good time," Emperor Xia said. "This time, you brought so many cultivators back. What do you want?"
"Please help, father," Xia Qingyuan said directly.
"It is I who ask for your help, Your Majesty." Ye Futian bowed and said, "Your Majesty also knows that I am indebted to the Imperial Advisor of Dali, and all his suffering is because of me."
"The last time I personally took you to Emperor Li's City, I remember telling you that the Imperial Advisor of Dali is a man of Dali. Even if you really went to Emperor Li's Realm, what would you do if Emperor Li wanted to kill you?" Emperor Xia asked. Emperor Li could not directly kill the people of Emperor Xia's Realm, but who could stop him from killing the "traitors" of Dali?
If they sent troops to save the Imperial Advisor, they would be confirming the name of the Imperial Advisor as a traitor.
"The reason we are sending troops this time is for the war between the two realms, not the Imperial Advisor. But the purpose of this war is not to destroy the cultivators of Emperor Li's Realm, but the Imperial Advisor of Dali," Ye Futian said. Emperor Xia's eyes flickered, and he understood Ye Futian's intentions.
Emperor Xia's Realm had acted without justification to rescue the Imperial Advisor of Dali.
Naturally, they would not use this as a reason to mobilize their troops. Instead, they would use it as a realm war.
But the purpose of the realm war was not to destroy Emperor Li's Realm. The ultimate goal was only the Imperial Advisor.
Ye Futian wanted to force Emperor Li to hand over the Imperial Advisor instead of provoking him to kill him.
In this way, Emperor Xia's Realm could not be too ruthless in this war and anger Emperor Li.
"Asking Emperor Xia's Realm to send troops, but not to kill the important figures of Dali, but to rescue the Imperial Advisor of Dali. Naturally, it makes sense for you. The Imperial Advisor of Dali has done you a favor, but the others in Emperor Xia's Realm … I'm afraid they might not be willing to help," Emperor Xia said.
"As long as Father gives the order, we will have the absolute advantage. This war will be overwhelming, and there will not be many losses," Xia Qingyuan said. Aside from the three Holiness of Nirvanas of the nine tribes, there were still four Holiness of Nirvanas, including Wu Yong, Shen Tianzhan, and Yaya that could be used.
Yan Yuan could not participate in the war.
The Star Plucking Saint did not come, and Ye Futian could not give orders to others. The Star Plucking Saint had acted to help him, which was different from the nine tribes.
But even so, Emperor Xia's Realm, which already had the upper hand in terms of combat power, had the four Holiness of Nirvanas, Yaya, and many Unblemished Saints of the nine tribes. It was enough to form an absolute advantage in terms of combat power.
"It's fine if the generals give the orders directly, but I will invite the leaders of the other major forces to come to the palace. If you want them to help, please do so yourself," Emperor Xia said.
He looked at Ye Futian and saw that Ye Futian was very calm after hearing his words. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Saving the Imperial Advisor was his business, and Emperor Xia had asked those top figures to help him several times. He had gone to the Crimson Dragon Realm twice.
Even Emperor Xia could not keep giving orders just because of his status, could he?
Xia Qingyuan didn't know what her father was up to, but Queen Xiao smiled and glanced at Emperor Xia.
Emperor Xia had invited all the top figures to the palace last time and asked if they would let their juniors go with Ye Futian to the Crimson Dragon Realm to train, and all forces had sent people. Now, letting Ye Futian invite them himself was creating opportunities for them to get in touch.
If Ye Futian was a descendant of Emperor Xia, then he would probably be the best candidate to replace him.
Everyone in Emperor Xia's Realm knew about Ye Futian's talent and reputation. He had a high reputation among the top forces, and several people spoke highly of him.
Moreover, he was also creating his own glory in the Crimson Dragon Realm.
She was wondering if Emperor Xia had the idea of letting Xia Qingyuan marry Ye Futian and let Ye Futian take over as the Emperor's son-in-law.
Who in the palace could not see what her daughter was thinking?
She was not married yet, and she was already following him everywhere.
She was the princess in name, and Ye Futian was her subordinate, but she heard that outside, it seemed that Ye Futian was in charge.
Thinking of this, Queen Xiao smiled and said, "You go and rest first. I'll talk to Qingyuan."
"Yes, Your Highness." Ye Futian nodded, then turned and left, leaving Xia Qingyuan alone.
Emperor Xia and Queen Xiao both looked at her, and Queen Xiao said, "Come and sit."
Xia Qingyuan walked up and sat next to Queen Xiao. The family of three seemed to be much more casual.
Queen Xiao was not Emperor Xia's first wife. Emperor Xia had a Path Companion when he was young, and she died in the turmoil. At that time, Emperor Xia was still in the Saint Plane. After proving his Way to Renhuang, he fell in love with Queen Xiao, but he did not officially marry her until very late, and she was only given the title of Imperial Concubine, not Empress.
Queen Xiao did not have any objections to this. It was normal for Emperor Xia to miss an old friend, and although she was only an Imperial Concubine in name, in reality, she was no different from a Queen.
"How is it these past few years? How far have you progressed?" Queen Xiao asked with a smile.
Xia Qingyuan was stunned and looked up at her mother. She naturally understood what Queen Xiao meant. She immediately lowered her head and whispered, "What do you mean, Mother?"
"You're a couple, and you're still playing dumb?" Emperor Xia also smiled and said, "Qingyuan, why are you still dressed as a man? It's a bit inappropriate."
"It's not what you think, Father." Xia Qingyuan turned her head, and there seemed to be no expression on her face.
Emperor Xia smiled. This girl was thin-skinned.
"That bastard didn't even say anything? What a jerk. "Emperor Xia cursed in a low voice," Qingyuan, do you want me to decree a marriage? "
"I don't know what you're talking about, Father." Xia Qingyuan stood up and said, "Moreover, Ye Futian has a wife, and he wants to go find her."
"Although there is a chance that she is still alive, the chances are very slim. You can say that he is infatuated. If that's the case, I can be more at ease." Emperor Xia smiled at Xia Qingyuan and said, "Qingyuan, didn't you say you didn't understand what I was talking about?"
(́ ∀ ́)
Xia Qingyuan glared at Emperor Xia, then stood up and said, "Father, I'll be taking my leave."
"Alright, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about what happened in Crimson Dragon Realm." Xia Qingyuan pulled Xia Qingyuan to sit down, and Xia Qingyuan sat down helplessly.
"You two have been through life and death together in Crimson Dragon Realm for the past few years. How could that kid not be tempted? Right now, his obsession with Hua Jieyu is still very strong. When he gives up in the future, your matter will naturally come to fruition, "Emperor Xia continued.
Xia Qingyuan was speechless.
Didn't he say he didn't want to talk?
If people from the outside saw this side of Emperor Xia, who knew what they would think.
However, whether it was a saint or a Renhuang, although they had already shed their mortal bodies, they were still human, and a father.
A father treated his daughter differently than he treated his son.
…
Several days later, the heroes of the royal palace arrived, and all the top figures were present.
And in name, the banquet was to welcome Princess Xia Qingyuan and Yao Xi. As for what the truth was, the people of the top forces had already guessed it.
Their juniors had already mentioned to them that Ye Futian had brought all the cultivators of Qianye City back. What else could it be for?
Could it be that he wanted to seize power in Emperor Xia's Realm?
There was only one possibility: Dali.
At the banquet, the Swordmaster of Lihen, the Lord of Xuanyuan Palace, the Lord of Jiutian Palace, and other top figures were all present, and they all looked at where Ye Futian was.
Ye Futian was arranged to sit in a seat just below Emperor Xia, next to Xia Qingyuan.
This …
It was thought-provoking.
Emperor Xia naturally sat in the seat of honor. He looked at everyone and smiled. "I'm sure you all have heard about what happened in Qianye City. Qingyuan and Ye Futian went to Qianye City to guard it as the foundation of Emperor Xia's Realm in the Crimson Dragon Realm. Now, Qianye City has become one of the strongest cities in the Crimson Dragon Realm. Qingyuan, Ye Futian, and Yu Sheng have all entered the Regional Palace of the holy land of the Crimson Dragon Realm to cultivate.
It is worth celebrating. "" Her Highness, Ye Futian, and Yu Sheng are all geniuses, and they have established a foundation for Emperor Xia's Realm in the Crimson Dragon Realm. It is indeed a joyous occasion. I thought that Ye Futian would need some time to grow before he could become a favorite general of His Majesty. I did not expect it to be so soon. Congratulations, Your Majesty. "The Lord of Jiutian raised his cup and smiled.
"It is indeed worth congratulating." Emperor Xia nodded.
All the cultivators raised their cups to Emperor Xia. It was a rare opportunity to drink with His Majesty, and it was all thanks to Ye Futian.
In name, they congratulated Emperor Xia for getting a favorite general, but in reality, His Majesty treated him as a son-in-law.
They had heard their juniors talk about the bloodshed that Ye Futian had caused in the Crimson Dragon Realm, and even as Holiness of Nirvanas, they were deeply shocked.
Ye Futian could indeed be called a genius.
He was not just unparalleled in Emperor Xia's Realm, but probably in the entire Crimson Dragon Realm, there were few who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Why didn't their juniors have someone like him?
