Liu Feiyang's words froze Xirou's confident smile.
Not only her, but the emperors of Yunchu, Yan, and the other countries who had just relaxed tensed up again.
Lifting their heads, they looked at the young man in shock. Then they saw Liu Feiyang's mocking smile as if he didn't care about Xirou's identity at all.
Since he knew that Xirou was the daughter of the fifth lord of the Royal Xuan Temple, he still dared to provoke her with such humiliating words. It went without saying what it meant.
The young man didn't care about Xirou's identity at all.
Things seemed to be getting tricky.
Ye Futian had returned on the Kunpeng with Nobles following him. However, the person in charge wasn't the Nobles but a young man. This was even more troublesome. A young man's status surpassed the Nobles. What did it mean? It meant that his background was much more powerful than what they saw now. Just like Xirou, there were also Nobles following her.
Xirou's eyes grew cold. Staring at Liu Feiyang, she asked, "Who are you?"
There were five lords of the Royal Xuan Temple. Each lord was in charge of a temple. Her father was the fifth lord. Though ranked last, he was also a lord. Someone actually dared to speak to her like this and with such disdain and provocation.
Was he from a top force of the Eastern Barren Territory?
"Liu Feiyang of the Liu Kingdom," Liu Feiyang said. Xirou's eyes suddenly turned sharp.
Top force of the Eastern Barren Territory, Liu Kingdom.
Liu Feiyang, the prince of the Liu Kingdom.
Though they were both top forces, his father was the king of the Liu Kingdom while Xirou's father was only the fifth lord.
Luo Junlin's expression darkened immediately. So fast?
He was in a hurry to get rid of Ye Futian because he was worried that Ye Futian would take the noble fate after reaching the peak of the Dharma Plane and be taken in as a disciple. Thus, he used the Royal Xuan Temple to come to Cangye.
But in less than a year, Ye Futian returned. He seemed to have joined a top force and was escorted back by the prince of the Liu Kingdom. This treatment was much better than when he entered the Royal Xuan Temple.
The emperors paled immediately. As Nobles, they had naturally heard of the top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory.
There were two top forces in the Eastern Barren Territory — the Qin Dynasty in the center and the Liu Kingdom in the east.
His surname was Liu, and he came from the Liu Kingdom.
They seemed to have been drawn into the storm of a battle between top forces.
Luo Junlin had joined the Royal Xuan Temple and returned to the Nandou Nation with the daughter of an important figure of the Royal Xuan Temple. It was so prestigious. Because of this, they wanted to use the Royal Xuan Temple to pressure the Cangye Kingdom with Emperor Luo.
But now, Ye Futian seemed to have also joined a top force, the Liu Kingdom.
Emperor Luo's expression was extremely ugly. He had tried to kill Ye Futian several times and failed every time. Now, he thought his plan was flawless, but Ye Futian had returned with the top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory.
"Since when did the Royal Xuan Temple become so arrogant? Why did they come to the Hundred Lands to show off?" Liu Feiyang sneered at Xirou. "Does your father know?"
"You …" He Xirou stared at Liu Feiyang furiously.
"Don't look at me like that. Your father will find out soon." Liu Feiyang suddenly smiled. Ye Futian and the others had caused such a big commotion in the Mirror Mountain of the Ancient Barren World. The Royal Xuan Temple would probably send people over, right?
The Royal Xuan Temple had come but Xirou wanted to kill Ye Futian. This was really interesting.
"You did it?" Ye Futian's gaze landed on Xirou. There was murderous intent in his eyes.
Today, he had come one step too late. His master and Yi Xiang's survival was unknown.
"It was me. What do you want?" Xirou looked at Ye Futian coldly. It was fine if Liu Feiyang spoke to her so arrogantly.
Who was Ye Futian? He was from the barren Cangye Kingdom. No matter how talented he was, he had only joined the Liu Kingdom. How dare he speak to her like this?
Liu Feiyang was a prince of the Liu Kingdom but she had nothing to fear. They were both top forces. The Liu Kingdom wouldn't start a war with the Royal Xuan Temple for an outsider.
Ye Futian looked at Xirou and then at Luo Junlin beside her. "Once in the East Sea, you were the crown prince and asked me to cultivate with you. After returning to the palace, you still want to kill me. Now that you've joined the Royal Xuan Temple, you still think about me. Are you that afraid of me?"
Luo Junlin's eyes darkened. Afraid?
He had borrowed the Royal Xuan Temple's power to kill Ye Futian because he was afraid. Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to do this since he was already a member.
"Also, you used a woman to borrow the power of the Royal Xuan Temple." Ye Futian laughed mockingly. "This woman is just as arrogant as you were back then. You two are a good match."
Used?
Xirou's heart trembled. She thought of everything that had happened between her and Luo Junlin. Even if Luo Junlin wanted her to do something for him, she had done it willingly. Coming here to settle this was also her request.
Ye Futian didn't look at them. Instead, he looked up at the emperors and sneered, "You really don't plan to settle this today?"
The emperors' expressions froze. The Liu Kingdom and the Royal Xuan Temple were at the same level. Emperor Luo had the Royal Xuan Temple's support and Ye Futian couldn't touch him. But what about them?
If Ye Futian used the power of the Liu Kingdom to attack them, what would the consequences be?
Xirou looked at Ye Futian. He was just a junior. Even if he was talented and joined the Liu Kingdom, how could he be so arrogant? He even ignored the Royal Xuan Temple.
She said coldly, "From now on, you will be under the protection of the Royal Xuan Temple. Each kingdom can choose one person to cultivate in the Royal Xuan Temple."
When Xirou said this, she looked at Ye Futian. There were so many geniuses in the Eastern Barren Territory. How could a genius dare to ignore her like this?
It was fine if Liu Feiyang was arrogant, but what right did Ye Futian have?
"Thank you, Miss." The emperors cupped their hands and felt relieved. What they were most worried about was being abandoned.
Now that the Royal Xuan Temple wanted to protect them, even if Ye Futian had the help of the Liu Kingdom, he wouldn't dare to touch them easily.
"So, you don't plan to settle this?" Ye Futian didn't look at Xirou. Instead, he looked at the emperors.
The emperors were silent. If they settled this, no one knew what price they would have to pay. Now that they had the Royal Xuan Temple's protection, they would obviously follow their lead.
"I understand." Ye Futian smiled and then looked at Xirou. "I hope you can represent the Royal Xuan Temple."
With that, Ye Futian turned and said to Hua Fengliu and the others, "Master, let's go back first."
"Okay." Everyone nodded. They all glanced at Emperor Luo and the others and then left.
Now that Ye Futian had also joined a top force, Emperor Luo and the others naturally didn't dare to touch him again.
A crisis was resolved just like that.
Everyone turned and returned to the palace. Liu Feiyang smiled at Xirou and said, "Next time before you make a decision, you better ask your father's opinion first."
Liu Chenyu also glanced at Xirou emotionlessly.
The group turned and left one after another as if nothing had happened. The tension from before was gone. It was as if everything had disappeared in an instant.
Xirou's expression was extremely ugly. Liu Feiyang had mocked her multiple times and thought too little of her. As the daughter of the fifth lord of the Royal Xuan Temple, she didn't need to ask her father for this kind of thing.
"Will there be trouble?" Luo Junlin asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry. I'm here." Xirou looked at Luo Junlin. She had always been strong but now she seemed especially gentle.
"You've worked hard." Luo Junlin's eyes were filled with guilt as he held her hand.
The other emperors' eyes sparkled when they saw this. It seemed that Xirou and Luo Junlin's relationship was better than they imagined.
Now that Ye Futian had been offended, there was no way out. They could only follow Luo Junlin closely.
"Let's go back," Luo Junlin whispered.
"No, let's go back to the restaurant," Xirou said. "I want to see how far the Liu Kingdom can go for him."
Luo Junlin's eyes flashed and he nodded. They would stay in the restaurant and see if the Liu Kingdom would leave.
With Ye Futian in the Liu Kingdom, Xirou wouldn't do anything to the Cangye Kingdom. Otherwise, they could also attack the Nandou Nation. But she couldn't take this lying down.
At least, she had to give them some pressure.
Ye Futian and the others entered the palace. Emperor Ye was still a bit nervous. The Liu Kingdom and the Royal Xuan Temple were both top forces. Even if a conflict really broke out, the two forces would be fine. However, the Cangye Kingdom might be affected.
This was also why Ye Futian didn't cause too much trouble. After all, Liu Feiyang was only escorting him back. He didn't join the Liu Kingdom and wasn't anyone there. He didn't have the right to make the Liu Kingdom attack another top force of the Eastern Barren Territory.
Even Liu Feiyang couldn't make a decision in a conflict between top forces.
"Thank you all for this crisis," Emperor Ye said to Liu Feiyang.
"You're welcome," Liu Feiyang said. "Senior, please don't think we're bothering you."
"Of course not. I'll order people to prepare a banquet right away," Emperor Ye said.
"There's no rush. There might be more people coming later. Then, you won't have time to entertain us," Liu Feiyang said with a smile. Said Liu Feiyang with a smile. When they set off, the other top forces would also set off one after another. Even though the Kunpeng was faster, the other forces should not be much slower.
They would definitely arrive at the Cangye Kingdom.
"More people will come?" Emperor Ye was confused. He looked at Ye Futian's group.
"Father, the Cangye Kingdom might be busy," Ye Lingxi said softly.
"What do you mean?" Emperor Ye didn't understand.
"You'll know in a bit." Ye Lingxi smiled faintly, purposely keeping them in suspense. Emperor Ye glanced at his daughter. She rarely acted like this.
Could it be that something else was going to happen?
"You're not going to explain?" Yi Xiang seemed to notice something was wrong. He looked at Ye Futian and asked.
"I don't know either." Ye Futian shrugged. He really didn't know what was going to happen.
He entered the Ancient Barren World and tried his best to plan this. He didn't know who would come in the end.
He could only wait and see!
