The emperors of the Yunchu Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom left. Ye Futian gave them some time to settle these things and announced their allegiance to Cangye.
At this point, the Cangye Kingdom was no longer in danger. Ye Futian's goal for coming to the Ancient Barren World had been achieved. He didn't plan to make a move on Emperor Luo right now.
Even if Liu Feiyang was willing to help, Xirou would definitely interfere based on her feelings for Luo Junlin. If she was angered, it would be a hidden danger for the Cangye Kingdom. Now that Emperor Luo was no longer a threat to him and Cangye, Emperor Luo and Luo Junlin just had to wait patiently. They would definitely suffer in the days to come.
The nobles and ministers, as well as the people from the various factions, who had come to pay their respects, left one after another. Even after they left, it was still difficult for them to calm down.
Everything that happened today was like a dream. It was too shocking. The Cangye Kingdom had gathered the strongest cultivators of the Eastern Barren Territory in one day.
They felt that they had witnessed a legend in the Cangye Kingdom.
A few years later, those youths would become existences that they could only look up to.
The banquet was no longer as lively as before. Everyone's hearts had yet to calm down. Even Emperor Ye felt like he was in a dream.
"Futian," Emperor Ye said, "you're giving me a lot of pressure."
The Cangye Kingdom's dominance came from the deterrence brought about by what happened today. The core was that Ye Futian and the others had entered the top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory. However, Ye Futian's own strength was not enough to suppress the emperors. Although he was happy about the status of the Cangye Kingdom, he was also a little nervous.
"His Majesty dared to envelop the Nandou Imperial Palace because of my Sword Qi. This bit of pressure is nothing." Ye Futian smiled and summoned the Black Wind Condor. The Black Wind Condor was carrying a bag on its back. Ye Futian opened it and poured out some items. There was a sword, a scepter, and a guqin. They were all powerful ritual implements.
"Your Majesty, this sword was prepared for you." Ye Futian took out a sword and handed it to Emperor Ye. Then he handed a small stone statue to Hua Fengliu. "Master, take care of this. If His Majesty and Senior Yi Xiang want to comprehend the noble fate, you can cultivate with my master."
"This Dharma artifact robe is for Master's wife."
"This is Senior Yi Xiang's, this is Aunt Tang's …"
Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched Ye Futian give out the treasures one by one. After receiving them and sensing them, they were all shocked.
"Noble ritual implement."
"This stone statue …" Hua Fengliu was even more shocked. He sensed that this small stone statue contained an incredible amount of Noble Will.
Everyone felt their hearts twitch at the thought of him casually taking a bag and putting it on the back of the Black Wind Condor. This guy was definitely a bastard.
"Futian, where did these come from?" Emperor Ye asked.
"Some of them were obtained by themselves, and some were given by others." Ye Futian smiled shyly and scratched his head. Back then, when the Empress had asked him to choose treasures from the Loulan Palace in the Ancient Barren World, he'd just randomly picked a few treasures to give to the elders as gifts. Moreover, he'd even left the Flame Scepter behind to exchange for a new one.
Seeing this, Liu Feiyang and Liu Chenyu were speechless. They didn't feel anything for the noble ritual implements but the statue was obtained by Ye Futian after he won the light from the Mirror Mountain stone wall. What else could they say?
That treasure was definitely priceless. It was extremely attractive even to the top forces.
However, Ye Futian didn't seem to feel anything.
But it made sense. That guy had a full element noble fate. To him, he didn't have to worry about not being able to comprehend Noble Will. He didn't need …
Willful.
Too willful!
"When I cultivate in the Eastern Barren Territory, I'll have a chance to get some powerful techniques. Your Majesty, you'll definitely be able to sweep through the Hundred Lands in the future. There's no need to feel pressured." Ye Futian smiled brightly at Emperor Ye.
Seeing that bright and clean smile, Emperor Ye felt waves of warmth in his heart. At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the first time he saw Ye Futian at the Fenghua Banquet.
At that time, he and Yu Sheng were extremely confident and showed off their abilities.
He still remembered that after the Fenghua Rank, Yu Sheng had said that Your Majesty was a good person. At the time, he was amused. Later, when the two of them brought up their conditions, he felt that the two of them valued their friendship. That was why they were willing to go to war with Emperor Luo for Ye Futian.
Now, this kid was only in the Dharma Plane and he was already thinking of ways to help Cangye.
That guy who liked to laugh and fool around actually had a clear and bright heart.
A strange thought flashed through his mind. If Ye Futian was his son, how perfect would that be?
Thinking of his own son, Emperor Ye's heart was clouded. Looking around, he asked coldly, "Where's Ye Xiao?"
The crowd looked around but Ye Xiao was nowhere to be seen.
"Go and find him," Emperor Ye ordered coldly. Emperor Ye ordered coldly. The guards left immediately. Ye Danchen and Ye Lingxi looked at each other. That day, when their brother returned from the Cangye Kingdom, he had said bad things about Ye Futian to their father. Now that they saw how Ye Futian treated the Cangye Kingdom, how could their father not feel anything?
"Futian, what did Ye Xiao do to you in the Ancient Barren World?" Emperor Ye asked. That day, Ye Xiao had complained but he didn't know the specifics.
"Your Majesty, it's just a small matter. It's over." He would help Emperor Ye increase his strength. The Cangye Kingdom would always be Emperor Ye's. Ye Xiao didn't need to think about Ye Xiao. He didn't need to do anything to him because he was Emperor Ye's son after all.
"There's one more thing. Earlier, Emperor Luo and the others came to threaten me to hand Ye Futian over. Ye Xiao went to the Imperial Advisor's mountain and brought your teacher and the others there," Emperor Ye said. He didn't hide anything from Ye Futian. Ye Xiao's matter had to be resolved.
Ye Futian's eyes narrowed. He looked at Hua Fengliu and Yi Xiang.
"Your Majesty, we went willingly. Please don't mind," Hua Fengliu said to Emperor Ye. He didn't want to make a big deal out of this. Not only did Emperor Ye help Ye Futian, but he also took Hua Jieyu as his adopted daughter and protected them.
"Since you're all protecting him, I'll deal with it myself," Emperor Ye said to Emperor Ye. Whether it was Ye Futian or Hua Fengliu, they were all grateful to him. They didn't want to punish Ye Xiao. Compared to his son's actions, he was bitterly disappointed.
Not long after, Ye Xiao came trembling. When the top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory arrived, he realized something was wrong. Thus, he didn't dare to stay here. He was worried that Ye Futian and the others would notice him.
But he didn't think that he still couldn't hide and that they would think of him so quickly.
"Father." Ye Xiao had a bad feeling when he saw Emperor Ye's gloomy face.
"Kneel," Emperor Ye said coldly. Ye Xiao's face paled and he knelt on the ground.
"What do you want to say?" Emperor Ye asked.
"Father." Hearing Emperor Ye's words, Ye Xiao's heart trembled. "I don't understand."
"If that's the case, you don't need to understand. From today onwards, Ye Xiao will be demoted to a commoner. He can't step into the palace anymore." Emperor Ye's expression was cold. Everyone's hearts trembled. Ye Xiao was crippled. He couldn't even be a prince, let alone the throne.
Ye Xiao's face paled. Then, he stared at Ye Futian angrily. "Father, you'd rather believe an outsider than me. I can't accept this."
"Stubborn." Emperor Ye waved his hand. A terrifying current slammed into Ye Xiao, sending him flying. "Scram," he said coldly.
Ye Futian had pleaded for him. Even now, Ye Xiao still thought that Ye Futian had accused him.
Ye Xiao coughed. Blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. Dispirited, he walked out. His eyes were filled with resentment.
He was the one closest to the throne. But now, he was going to lose everything.
"Find everyone who came back from the Ancient Barren World and entered the palace with Ye Xiao," Emperor Ye said coldly. Ye Xiao was only a prince. How dare he lie to the emperor with him?
"Yes." The guards bowed and left. Ye Futian saw all this and didn't stop them. If it was just the things that happened in the Ancient Barren World, he could let it go. But since it involved his master, he couldn't tolerate it.
Ye Xiao only wanted the throne. The sad thing was that he lost everything because of it.
"Futian, if you think it's not enough, you can do whatever you want," Emperor Ye said.
"Your Majesty, this matter is over," Ye Futian said.
"Alright, it's over." Emperor Ye nodded.
"This matter is over. Thank you." Ye Futian looked at Liu Feiyang and Liu Chenyu. This time, he owed them a favor.
"It's just a small matter. I plan to stay in the Cangye Kingdom for a few days. You won't mind, right?" Liu Feiyang smiled.
"It's almost the end of the year. You're not going back?" Ye Futian asked, surprised.
"The others are going back. Chenyu and I plan to spend the year here. Early next year, Senior Kun can escort you to the Eastern Barren Territory," Liu Feiyang said, smiling. Since he'd already done this favor, he'd do it to the end.
"The Liu Kingdom?" Ye Futian asked.
"It's fine. After all, it concerns Chenyu's marriage," Liu Feiyang said, smiling.
"…" Liu Chenyu was speechless. She felt betrayed.
"Yes. Relationships need to be nurtured slowly." Ye Futian felt that Liu Feiyang's words were too reasonable. He nodded seriously. "You have to stay."
"I'm going back." Ye Wuchen was speechless.
"Wuchen, the princess is staying here. How can you go back?" Ye Futian asked. "What do you think, Lord Ye?"
"Yes." Lord Ye nodded. "Wuchen, stay in the palace. When you have time, accompany the princess."
"That's right." Emperor Ye nodded. Ye Wuchen was forced to stay just like that.
This time, the Cangye Kingdom's storm had finally come to an end. However, the aftermath of this incident was still brewing.
What happened in the Cangye Kingdom first spread to the Cangye Imperial City. Then, it spread to every place in the Cangye Kingdom. Even the Nandou Imperial City had news.
Then, it began to spread to all prefectures in the Nandou Nation.
