The far west of the Barren State was a vast wilderness. There were small towns here and there, but the population was small.
At that moment, in a small town, there was a group of young men walking on the road. At that moment, a gust of wind blew past. Many people raised their heads and glanced at the sky, only to see a silhouette flashing past at an extremely fast speed, like a bolt of lightning.
"What's that?" The young man's footsteps came to a halt as he felt a terrifying gust of wind blow past him.
"It looks like a figure."
"Such speed. What plane is that? Did you see who it is? "
"I only saw a blurry figure. It seems to be a very good-looking scholar in white," the group discussed curiously.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a group of people descended outside the small town. They stood directly above the arched door outside the town, wearing luxurious clothes. Their eyes were extremely sharp, as if they could penetrate the void and look into the distance.
The people who passed by felt their hearts tremble. These people's auras were too terrifying. Their casual auras made people tremble from their souls.
The town was at the border and there were not many strong cultivators. Noble Plane cultivators were already strong cultivators to them. The weakest aura among these people was even more terrifying than the strongest they had seen.
"Where are we now?" a youth in the middle with an extraordinary temperament asked the person beside him.
"We've left Yu State and officially entered the Barren State," a strong cultivator beside him said.
"They can really run." The youth's expression was cold and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. "But he dared to steal from me. I'll take him down even if he runs to the ends of the world. I heard that there hasn't been a Saint in the Barren State in all these years, right?"
"Yes." The person beside him nodded.
"Continue the chase," the youth said coldly. The young man said coldly. Then, the group continued to pursue, from Yu State all the way to Barren State.
…
On Crouching Dragon Mountain, the Zhuge Family was vast and magnificent.
Along the way, many people saw Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu's group. They naturally recognized Hua Jieyu. However, while Hua Jieyu had been in the Zhuge family for a few years, she was not familiar with the people of the Zhuge family. During that time, she was either cultivating or spending time with Zhuge Mingyue. She rarely interacted with the people of the Zhuge family.
Many young geniuses in the Zhuge family wanted to pursue her, but Zhuge Mingyue made everyone give up, not giving them a chance at all.
Now that Hua Jieyu had returned, the news spread quickly. Many people in the Zhuge Family knew that Hua Jieyu had returned. Furthermore, Ye Futian, the number one on the Law Rank of the Holy Zhi Palace, came with her.
Hua Jieyu brought Ye Futian and the others to the Mingyue Pavilion where Zhuge Mingyue lived, but they did not see her. The servant girl told them that she went to see the clan leader, so they went to the palace where the clan leader of the Zhuge family lived.
Along the way, Ye Futian deeply felt the strength of a thousand-year-old clan. It was as vast as a small city, and there were many strong cultivators in the clan. However, Ye Futian was not in the mood to appreciate all this.
They walked all the way up and arrived outside Zhuge Qingfeng's palace.
There were maids standing guard outside. Hua Jieyu stepped forward and asked, "Is the second lady in the Breeze Residence?"
"Please wait a moment, Miss Jieyu. I'll go inform them." The Breeze Residence was Zhuge Qingfeng's palace, so it was only natural that not everyone could enter. Only young masters and mistresses could enter the palace directly.
"Alright." Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu waited there. After a while, the servant girl returned and smiled at Hua Jieyu. "The second lady asked Miss Jieyu to wait in the Mingyue Pavilion. She will be there shortly."
Hua Jieyu had a strange look on her face. She came from the Holy Zhi Palace, so the second sister must know why she was there. If it was in the past, the second sister would have come out to see her directly. Now, it was obvious that the second sister had something to do in the Breeze Residence.
Ye Futian naturally felt it as well. He frowned slightly.
"Let's go to the second sister's place and wait," Hua Jieyu said softly to Ye Futian.
"Alright." Ye Futian nodded. That was the only way. He came in a hurry, wanting to see the second sister and at least know what she was thinking.
The group turned and left, heading back in the direction of the Mingyue Pavilion.
On the way, people everywhere in the Zhuge Family were discussing the marriage between Bai Luli and Zhuge Mingyue. Not only that, but from the moment they entered the Zhuge Family, they could hear the discussion everywhere. Now, the entire Zhuge Family was talking about it.
Not only the Zhuge Family, but even Xuanwu City was in an uproar because of the matter, and the news had spread all over the Barren State.
At that moment, there was a group of people walking in their direction. The group was chatting casually, and when they saw Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu, they stopped in their tracks and quietened down. Everyone's eyes were on Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu.
Ye Futian glanced at the group in front of him. He did not know most of them, but there were a few familiar faces.
Bai Ze from White Cloud City, Zhuge Xing, Zhuge Ping, and the others from the Zhuge Family.
The others were probably from the Zhuge Family and White Cloud City.
"Jieyu, you're back." Zhuge Xing looked at Hua Jieyu and said softly, as if he was welcoming her home. Many in the Zhuge family knew that Zhuge Xing had feelings for Hua Jieyu in the past, so they did not find it strange. They had even hoped that the two of them would end up together, but they did not expect that Zhuge Xing would end up helping Ye Futian cultivate a beautiful Divine Spiritual Sorcerer. Many in the Zhuge family were unhappy about that.
Not only that, when the Holy Zhi Palace recruited disciples more than three years ago, several people from the Zhuge Family had a conflict with Ye Futian, including Zhuge Xing, and all of them were crushed by Ye Futian. Coupled with the matter with Hua Jieyu, the younger generation of the Zhuge Family did not like Ye Futian at that time. After all, a girl like Hua Jieyu would make many people have feelings for her.
Bai Ze stared at the figure in front of him. The Holy Zhi Palace had indeed intentionally released the news. It seemed that Ye Futian could not sit still and came to the Zhuge Family personally.
However, this was not the Holy Zhi Palace.
Now, his brother Bai Luli was going to marry Zhuge Mingyue. He wanted to see what Ye Futian could do by coming here.
Hua Jieyu ignored Zhuge Xing. Zhuge Xing had spoken rudely during the Law Battles and she had told him to stay away from her.
"Ye Futian, what are you doing here at the Zhuge Family?" Zhuge Ping, who was beside Zhuge Xing, asked. He had been eliminated by Ye Futian during the Law Battles and did not even have the right to enter the Holy Zhi Palace.
"Who are you?" Ye Futian glanced at Zhuge Ping and asked coldly.
"You …" Zhuge Ping's expression was cold. Was he ignoring his existence?
"I seem to have some impression of you. That arrogant person during the Law Battles. He was weak, but he talked big. How's his cultivation now?" Ye Futian asked with a smile. Zhuge Ping's face turned pale and he shut his mouth and snorted. Compared to Ye Futian's status as the first on the Law Rank, he could not bring himself to say it.
Everyone in the Zhuge Family stared at Ye Futian. The first on the Law Rank was indeed as arrogant as the rumors said. Even in the Zhuge Family, he still humiliated the disciples of the Zhuge Family.
"What is everyone doing here?" Bai Ze smiled and said, "Now that my brother and the Second Young Lady's wedding is imminent, and Ye Futian is the Second Young Lady's junior, it is only natural for him to come and congratulate them. There is no need for everyone to be so serious."
"Idiot."
Ye Futian glanced at Bai Ze, not giving him any face at all. In an instant, the smile on Bai Ze's face froze and he glared at Ye Futian coldly.
"Why aren't you smiling anymore?" Ye Futian's face was filled with mockery. He had no time to put on an act with Bai Ze. He only had one reason for coming here, and that was for his sister to never marry Bai Luli.
"Your brother, Bai Luli, is not worthy of my sister. I do not agree to this marriage," Ye Futian said coldly.
Everyone looked surprised. Bai Luli was a peerless genius of the Holy Zhi Palace and tenth on the Barren Sky Ranking. Even if Ye Futian was now first on the Law Rank and entered the Sage Hall, he was just another peerless genius after Bai Luli. What right did he have to say such arrogant words?
He could question Bai Ze, but there was no woman in the Barren State who was not worthy of Bai Luli. Even the disciples of the Zhuge Family agreed with this. As such, they were all very optimistic about this marriage.
Bai Ze looked at Ye Futian coldly. His brother, Bai Luli, was not worthy?
If it were not for certain reasons, he would not even think that Zhuge Mingyue was worthy of his brother.
"This is your marriage, it is not up to you to agree or disagree," Zhuge Xing said coldly. "Furthermore, Bai Luli is tenth on the Barren Sky Ranking. He and the Second Young Lady are a match made in heaven. The entire Zhuge Family and the people of Xuanwu City think highly of them."
"That's right, the Second Young Lady is outstanding in both looks and cultivation. However, Bai Luli is your brother in the Holy Zhi Palace, a genius of his generation. How dare you speak so shamelessly?" The people of the Zhuge Family sneered. Ye Futian had taken Hua Jieyu away, and now he wanted to ruin the marriage between Bai Luli and Zhuge Mingyue?
Because of his brother? He wanted to take away another genius from the Zhuge Family. What a joke.
"I'm afraid that in the Barren State, only you would say something like this. My brother is not worthy of Miss Mingyue," Bai Ze said sarcastically.
"Of course not," Ye Futian said very seriously. No matter how outstanding and outstanding Bai Luli was, even if he was already number one on the Barren Sky Ranking, there was only one person in this world who was worthy of Second Sister, and that was Third Brother. No one else was worthy of her.
There was no other reason than that they were Second Senior Sister and Third Senior Brother.
"Very funny," Bai Ze said sarcastically.
"It's not funny at all." Ye Futian looked at Bai Ze. "But someone like you who thinks so highly of yourself will never understand. So, I'm probably wasting my time with an idiot."
"Let's go," Ye Futian said and walked away. Bai Ze's expression was extremely ugly, and he clenched his fists. Ye Futian had mocked him several times, and it was as if Bai Ze did not exist in Ye Futian's eyes.
Turning around, the group watched Ye Futian's back as he left. Bai Ze and Zhuge Xing's eyes were extremely cold.
