A month later, on Book Mountain in the Eastern Barren Territory.
In the courtyard, Hua Jieyu lay quietly on the bed. An elder was checking on her injuries. The elder glowed with green light and his life force was very strong.
Behind the elder was a beautiful woman. It was Phoenix, a disciple of the Holy Zhi Palace.
After the battle at the Holy Zhi Palace, the Barren State was in turmoil. All forces reorganized themselves and the Holy Zhi Palace needed time to recover. Ye Futian and the others returned to Book Mountain in the Eastern Barren Territory.
Phoenix asked her master to go to the Holy Zhi Palace to treat Douzhan's injuries and then came here.
Ye Futian, Hua Fengliu, and Nandou Wenyin all stood to the side and looked at the elder nervously.
After a long while, the green light on the old man's body retracted. He turned around to look at Ye Futian and said, "Her Spiritual Energy was overloaded during the battle, and she used power that did not belong to her. Fortunately, she had ritual implements to protect her Spiritual Energy, and the person who you said possessed her should have held back, which was why her Spiritual Will did not completely collapse. Phoenix gave her some pills before, and I will also repair her damaged Spiritual Energy in the next few days. Her life will not be in danger, but she may go through a period of deep sleep, and I do not know when she will wake up."
"Thank you, senior," Ye Futian said softly. He'd been worried these days. Now that the Undying Old Man said this, he was relieved. As long as Jieyu was fine, he would wait no matter how long she slept.
"Let's go. Don't disturb her." The Undying Old Man walked out of the room and the others followed. There were also many people outside. Gu Dongliu, Zhuge Mingyue, Yu Sheng, Ye Wuchen, Yi Xiaoshi, and many others were all on Book Mountain.
"How is it?" Zhuge Mingyue asked.
"Senior said that Jieyu will be fine. She might just sleep for a while," Ye Futian said.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If anything had happened to Hua Jieyu, Ye Futian would have been the first to blame himself. As for the position of Palace Lord, it would have been impossible.
"It'll all be over," Zhuge Mingyue said softly.
"Yeah." Ye Futian nodded and smiled. "What's with the long faces? Isn't there good news?"
Everyone smiled bitterly. This was probably self-consolation.
"Little Brother." At that moment, two figures walked over. Ye Futian looked up and saw his Eldest Brother and Goddess Wangyue walking over together.
"Look who's here." Ye Futian looked behind the Sword Saint and saw Xue Ye, Luo Fan, and You Xi. In addition, You Xi was holding a baby in her arms.
"Fourth Senior Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law." Ye Futian smiled and walked forward. He looked at the baby girl in You Xi's arms. The little girl's eyes were wide open. She looked at Ye Futian and was not afraid of strangers at all.
"Here." You Xi passed the child to Ye Futian. Ye Futian held the child in his arms and smiled. "Little girl, did you keep looking at Uncle-Master because you think he looks good?"
Everyone around them laughed. Xue Ye said, "Although there is a gap between her and her father, Uncle-Master's looks are not bad."
"Senior Brother, have some shame." Ye Futian glanced at Xue Ye. "As her uncle, I don't even know her name."
"Xue Cao. Let's call her Xiao Cao," Xue Ye said with a smile.
"F * ck," Ye Futian muttered. "Was it taken from the Cottage?"
"Yes. If we have a little brother in the future, we'll call him Xue Tang." Xue Ye smiled and nodded.
Ye Futian looked at the baby girl in his arms and actually felt his eyes tear up. He lowered his head slightly and kissed Xue Cao's forehead. He smiled and said, "As her uncle, I haven't even prepared a greeting gift."
"Then I'll owe you one. When Xiao Cao grows up, she can ask Uncle-Master for it herself," You Xi said with a smile.
"Okay, Sister-in-law, remember it for Xiao Cao." Ye Futian nodded and then looked at the Sword Saint and Goddess Wangyue. "Eldest Senior Brother, when are you and the goddess getting married? And Third Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, you're all seniors. You can't be too far behind."
The Sword Saint looked at everyone. Beitang Xing 'er and Yi Xiaoshi were also here. All the disciples of the Cottage were here.
"We're still missing the teacher." The Sword Saint looked into the distance.
Ye Futian was helpless. Eldest Senior Brother was stubborn.
"Don't tease Senior Sister. You and Jieyu seem to be the first to date," Zhuge Mingyue said to Ye Futian.
Ye Futian handed Xiao Cao back to You Xi. He couldn't help but think of his youth.
It had been more than ten years.
Ye Futian smiled. He closed his eyes and looked at the sky. Then he turned back to Hua Fengliu and Nandou Wenyin.
"Master, Masteress, I want to marry Jieyu. Please, Master and Masteress, let me marry her," Ye Futian suddenly said.
Hua Fengliu and Nandou Wenyin were stunned.
"When?" Hua Fengliu asked. Jieyu was still in a coma.
"In a month, whether she wakes up or not, I'm going to marry her, right here on Book Mountain." Ye Futian's words caused the surroundings to become extremely quiet. No one had expected him to bring this up so suddenly.
"Futian, I naturally have no objections. It's just that if Jieyu wakes up in the future and didn't attend her wedding, wouldn't it be a regret?" Hua Fengliu said.
"If Jieyu wakes up in the future, as long as she wants, I'm willing to marry her again." Ye Futian smiled brightly. Nandou Wenyin felt her eyes turn red. She lowered her head slightly and didn't know what to feel.
"Alright." Hua Fengliu nodded.
"Thank you, father-in-law." Ye Futian smiled brightly. Everyone around him smiled as well, but they felt their noses tingle and their eyes seemed to be filled with sand.
However, this was also a wonderful thing.
On Book Mountain, the news that Ye Futian was going to marry Hua Jieyu quickly caused a sensation. Although no one knew what had happened when Ye Futian returned, they vaguely knew that a great battle had broken out in the Barren State. The Sword Saint had also participated in this battle. Hua Jieyu had returned with severe injuries and was in a coma.
Now, there was news that Ye Futian was going to marry Hua Jieyu.
The people on Book Mountain were naturally very familiar with Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu. They were all shocked. Gu Biyue and Chu Yaoyao, who had interacted with Ye Futian before, were even more disturbed.
Time passed so quickly. Was he going to get married?
The news quickly spread throughout the Eastern Barren Territory. In an instant, many people rushed towards Book Mountain, wanting to witness the wedding in person.
A few days after the news spread, something big happened in the Liu Kingdom.
Ye Wuchen brought Princess Liu Chenyu and Prince Liu Feiyang back to the Liu Kingdom. The mansions of the Liu Kingdom that had once been prominent, as well as the mansions of the Liu Kingdom's ministers, were all massacred. Ye Wuchen turned into a one-armed God of Death and killed all the ministers who had betrayed the Liu Kingdom in the past to avenge the Liu Kingdom. Book Mountain had never dealt with this matter because it was waiting for Ye Wuchen to handle it.
No one had thought that this day would come so quickly. It had only been a few years.
Ye Wuchen was already an upper-level noble. The strong cultivators who saw him kill said that Ye Wuchen was no weaker than the king of Liu back then.
If Ye Wuchen was already so powerful, then what about Ye Futian and Yu Sheng, the two legendary geniuses of the Eastern Barren Territory?
Could it be that they were already close to the legendary Sage Plane?
In the Eastern Barren Territory, the Sage Plane was the supreme legend.
The news of Ye Futian's upcoming wedding spread not only in the Eastern Barren Territory but also in the Barren State.
Many top forces in the Barren State and the top figures on the Barren Sky Ranking prepared to go to the Eastern Barren Territory for the wedding. Even if Ye Futian didn't invite them, they still had to go.
Ye Futian didn't know about any of this and didn't care. He continued to cultivate quietly on Book Mountain. When he had time, he would visit Jieyu and chat with her.
On this day, a group of strong cultivators came to Book Mountain, but they were mainly young people.
Xu Que, Huang Jiuge, Yun Shuisheng, Zhong Li, and many others went to find Ye Futian.
"I heard that you're getting married." Xu Que walked towards Ye Futian and said, "Congratulations."
Ye Futian looked at Xu Que and Huang Jiuge and smiled. "I haven't thanked you for what happened before."
Xu Shang and Huang Xi had participated in that battle. Naturally, Xu Que and Huang Jiuge had influenced them. Moreover, he already knew that when Ye Wuchen killed Bai Ze, Xu Que had participated and used the power of Tingxue House to escape.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Xu Que shrugged.
"Let me tell you something. I've also entered the Holy Zhi Palace," Huang Jiuge said to Ye Futian.
Ye Futian's expression changed and he looked at Huang Jiuge in surprise.
"Is it strange?" Huang Jiuge shrugged and said, "The Holy Zhi Palace is leaderless now. The Palace Lords are all waiting for you to return, but you're preparing for your wedding here."
"How's my master?" Ye Futian asked.
"Palace Lord Douzhan has almost recovered." The others nodded.
Ye Futian nodded slightly and relaxed.
"You should go back after this wedding," Xu Que said. "Now, many people are looking forward to your return. You can't always stay in the Eastern Barren Territory, can you?"
"Moreover, I'm still waiting for you to return soon and approve me to enter the Sage Hall to cultivate," Xu Que said honestly.
"…"
Ye Futian looked at him speechlessly. Was this why he was persuading him to become the Palace Lord?
The Sage Hall of the Holy Zhi Palace was the place of inheritance of the Divine Path. Everyone in the Barren State wanted to enter.
Now, if he were to become the Palace Lord, he would have the right to decide.
Ye Futian did not respond. Xu Que shrugged and said, "It seems that what I said is useless. But it doesn't matter. The old guys will come and call you in a few days."
"How many years until the next Battle of Orthodoxy?" Ye Futian asked all of a sudden.
He would never forget the debt of Zhisheng Cliffs.
"It's held once every 20 years. There's not even 10 years until the next one." Xu Que said, "In the last one, many on the Barren Sky Ranking were not confident and did not even dare to participate. It was mainly people from the other eight states. The Pure Yang Palace Lord was heavily injured in that battle."
"It's really short," Ye Futian murmured. No wonder the Holy Zhi Palace was so eager to create a saint. In such a short time, even Bai Luli would find it difficult to step into the pinnacle of Sage Plane, let alone a Noble like him.
