The Yue clan was one of the four holy lands of the Summer State, and it was an aristocratic force that had been passed down for many years.
Although it was not as good as the Xia clan or the Nine State College, it was definitely one of the top ten holy lands in the Nine States.
The words of such a family could not be understood at face value. The daughter of the Yue clan was from a famous family, and there were several cultivators of the Saint Plane in the family. Did she need to come to Ye Futian often for advice?
Looking at Yue Lingshuang's age and beauty, it was easy to understand the other's intentions.
Of course, with the status of the Yue clan, it was impossible for them to make it clear the first time, so they only hinted that if Ye Futian was interested, they would try to get in touch. If not, it would not affect them at all.
Behind Ye Futian, Sage Wanxiang, the Sword Demon, and the others looked at each other, and there was a faint ripple in their hearts.
It was obvious that the Yue clan valued Ye Futian's potential, and wanted to marry the daughter of the clan into the Holy Zhi Palace to become Ye Futian's woman. In this way, the relationship between the two sides would be very close.
Of course, they guessed that the Yue clan should know that Ye Futian already had a wife, so the marriage could only be a concubine. Therefore, Yue Lingshuang should not be the most important daughter of the Yue clan. After all, the Yue clan was a millennium-old family.
But even so, although the Holy Zhi Palace was now famous in the Nine States and seemed to be rising, compared to the Yue clan, at least for now, it was still somewhat insignificant. The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty had been difficult for the Holy Zhi Palace to deal with, so the Yue clan was already very sincere. It was obvious that they valued Ye Futian's future achievements, so they had sent a cultivator ranked in the Sage Ranking to come in person.
Ye Futian naturally understood Yue Jiangliu's hint. He looked at Yue Lingshuang. He had praised Yue Lingshuang for her beauty, and it was not out of politeness. She was indeed a very beautiful woman, and from her beautiful eyes, he saw curiosity and a trace of shyness. Obviously, she knew, but she did not reject him.
Perhaps a woman born in such a family knew that marriage would be one of her destinies.
Yue Lingshuang naturally understood. Although she had some resistance before, after all, although she was not the most outstanding woman in the Yue Clan, she could be ranked in the top three among her peers. Naturally, she had her own pride. If she was his wife, perhaps she would not mind. After all, Ye Futian's name could be said to be like the sun at high noon. He could be said to be the most legendary figure in recent years.
However, those who had seen Ye Futian in the clan all said that he would become a peerless figure who would dominate his generation in the future. Furthermore, he was extremely handsome and young. One day, he would surpass the leaders of many holy lands. Thinking of this, she was no longer as conflicted. Many of the great figures in the Nine States had wives and concubines. Which of the concubines of the saints were not extremely outstanding women?
Now that she had seen Ye Futian in person, he was indeed unparalleled. As such, the resistance in her heart faded a little. Instead, she felt a little shy.
There was a moment of silence in the courtyard. In this short moment, many thoughts flashed through everyone's minds. Ye Futian was thinking about how he should respond.
"The Yue Clan is a holy land family that has been passed down for many years. Their supreme art of sealing is famous throughout the Nine States. Why would you need to ask me?" Ye Futian said with a smile. His tone was gentle and comfortable. The people of the Yue Clan looked surprised. Ye Futian continued, "Of course, if Miss Lingshuang wants to discuss cultivation, I naturally do not mind. However, after this matter is over, I may return to the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State."
Ye Futian's words were humble and polite. Although he had refused, he was still polite.
Yue Jiangliu still had a smile in his eyes. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking. He did not show it, but in fact, he also understood that Ye Futian had declined that hint.
When Yue Lingshuang heard Ye Futian's words, there was a faint sense of loss in her heart. She had let go of her pride, but she had not expected Ye Futian to refuse.
Of course, she would not think that her pride had been trampled on. The two of them had met for the first time, and she had been conflicted before. What right did she have to ask Ye Futian to accept her at first sight?
Perhaps this was to be expected. As the most legendary genius in the Barren State, he should not be easily attracted by beauty.
With Ye Futian's talent, identity, and looks, it would not be difficult for him to get a beautiful woman.
"Each cultivator has their own strengths. Palace Lord Ye fought alone against the geniuses of his generation from the four holy lands. Naturally, he is worthy of learning," Yue Lingshuang said with a smile. "Although the Barren State is far from the Summer State, if there is a chance to go and see, Palace Lord Ye, please do not avoid me."
Yue Lingshuang did not seem to mind at all. Her smile was even more charming. Yue Jiangliu did not say anything when he heard her words. He just smiled. If Yue Lingshuang was just a superficial woman, he would not have brought her here.
"If Miss Lingshuang comes to visit the Holy Zhi Palace, I will receive her personally," Ye Futian said with a smile.
"It seems that you young people are more talkative." Yue Jiangliu looked at the two of them and smiled. "I will not disturb you any longer. If you have time, Palace Lord Ye, you can also come to the Yue Clan."
"Yes, I will." Ye Futian nodded.
"Farewell." Yue Jiangliu cupped his hands and left. Ye Futian returned the gesture.
After the people of the Yue Clan had left, everyone's eyes fell on Ye Futian. Xu Shang smiled lazily. "The falling flower is interested, but the heartless stream is heartless. What a pity."
Ye Futian glared at Xu Shang and said, "It's our first time meeting. How could there be any interest? It's probably just a first impression and obedience to the family's arrangements."
The purpose of the marriage alliance was ultimately a consideration of benefits.
"The Yue Clan's timing is just right. For us, it is extremely advantageous. From the Holy Zhi Palace's point of view, I hope you will agree," said the Sword Demon. In the context of the Sacred War, for the Yue clan to propose a marriage alliance meant that as long as Ye Futian agreed to the marriage, the Yue clan would naturally help Ye Futian, which meant that they would help the Holy Zhi Palace through this difficult time. They would even protect Ye Futian as he moved forward, witnessing Ye Futian's ascension to the Divine Path.
"Such a wonderful thing, and he refused." Xu Shang shrugged. Giving a beauty as a concubine and strengthening the Holy Zhi Palace, no matter how you looked at it, was an advantage, at least until Ye Futian was strong enough.
However, Ye Futian had his own ideas. Since he did not have such thoughts, they were just joking.
"Why not?" At this moment, a voice drifted over from behind. In an instant, the entire space turned silent. Everyone turned around and saw a beautiful silhouette appearing there. She was like a beautiful scenery, extremely pleasing to the eyes and heart.
However, everyone left on their own accord. Only Ye Futian remained here.
Hua Jieyu walked to Ye Futian's side and raised her head slightly. She stared into Ye Futian's eyes with her beautiful, flawless eyes and said, "You clearly know why they are here. Moreover, the matter with the Master has not been resolved. If you nod, the Yue clan will help. Moreover, she is very beautiful."
Ye Futian looked at the perfect face right in front of him. They could feel each other's breaths. Jieyu rarely spoke to him so seriously. Back in the Herb Garden, she pulled Little Butterfly along, and it was still in a joking manner. However, how could Ye Futian not understand her feelings?
Little Butterfly was Saint Jiang's disciple, and Saint Jiang was ranked 12th on the Sage and Saint Ranking. This was her selfishness.
Ever since he stepped out of the Barren State, although he had become famous all over the world, his path had been bumpy, especially in the Sacred War. Ye Futian had been in danger several times, and twice he had been in a coma for many days. He had also risked his life to test medicine. She had seen it all in tears, and her heart ached. However, with her level of cultivation, even if she used all her strength to activate power that did not belong to her, it was still a drop in the bucket. She was powerless against the cultivators of the Saint Plane.
Therefore, she did not want Ye Futian to be so tired and constantly be in danger.
Before, she did not know whether or not Little Butterfly had feelings for Ye Futian. Since Ye Futian did not have such feelings, she did not say much. Now that the Yue Clan had taken the initiative to come and Ye Futian had actually rejected them, she came out and was somewhat serious.
"Judging from the Great Zhou Sacred King's attitude, he does not want to fight to the death. Otherwise, he would have already done it that day. Now that the Xia Clan has come to mediate, if the Great Zhou Sacred King puts forward any conditions, as long as they do not cross the line, I can agree." Ye Futian said, "Moreover, this is the Sacred War. It is impossible for the Yue Clan to directly interfere with the Great Zhou Sacred King's decision. At most, they can only influence, but not play a decisive role."
"But …" Hua Jieyu wanted to say something, but she saw Ye Futian put a finger on her mouth and smiled. "This is you allowing me to have three wives and four concubines. Don't regret it."
Ye Futian stepped on Ye Futian's foot. This guy still has the mood to joke.
"However, the Yue Clan's arrival has reminded me that this time all the holy lands have come to the Central Plains City. I should take this opportunity to visit some forces." Ye Futian said, "Jieyu, come with me."
Hua Jieyu had no choice but to nod.
The next day, Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu brought many top figures from the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State to visit the pavilion where the Yue clan was.
The cultivators of the Saint Plane of the Yue Clan had personally invited them to a banquet, and Yue Lingshuang had also attended. Seeing Hua Jieyu beside Ye Futian, who was like a fairy, she vaguely understood why Ye Futian had not agreed yesterday. Although she was also a rare beauty, when Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu sat together, they looked more like a real golden couple.
Ye Futian did not come to talk about Yue Lingshuang. He simply came to visit the elders. The Yue clan had a good impression of Ye Futian's humility.
After leaving the Yue clan, Ye Futian went to visit the Sky Saint. He had already ordered people to find out where the people from the various holy lands were staying. This time, the Sky Saint and his student, Han Yu, were there as well. During the Nine State Forum, the Sky Saint and the Glass Saint of the Eastern State had given him quite a good feeling, and they had spoken to each other rather politely. Thus, he went to visit.
After the Sky Saint, it was naturally the place where the people from Lapis Lazuli Holy Palace were to visit the Glass Saint.
It was not until the evening that Ye Futian returned with Hua Jieyu.
"It is said that when he was young, the Great Zhou Sacred King once pursued the Glass Saint. I don't know if it's true or not," Ye Futian said softly. The Great Zhou Sacred King had good taste.
In the land of the Nine States, he had seen many beautiful women. However, whether in terms of appearance or temperament, the number one beauty of the Eastern State, the Glass Saint, was definitely the most outstanding. After all, she had cultivated to the Saint Plane, and she had a somewhat unique temperament. She was holy and unparalleled, and no one dared to profane her.
"Of course it's true. A woman as beautiful as the Glass Saint, the geniuses of the Eastern State back then would have had some thoughts about her." Hua Jieyu said, "Even so, the Glass Saint still looks like a young girl. Time has not left any traces on her."
"You cultivate so fast, you will be like the Glass Saint," Ye Futian said with a smile.
"Who do you think is prettier, me or the Glass Saint?" Hua Jieyu looked at Ye Futian with a smile, and there was a hint of playfulness in her beautiful eyes.
"The Glass Saint is the number one beauty of the Eastern State, but in the Nine States, I'm afraid no one can compare." Ye Futian smiled and said, "Of course, the premise is that my Jieyu is excluded."
A sweet smile appeared on Hua Jieyu's face, but she whispered in Ye Futian's ear, "If you can pursue the Glass Saint, do you think the Great Zhou Sacred King's heart will collapse?"
Ye Futian looked at Hua Jieyu with a stunned expression. This girl was really getting naughtier and naughtier. How dare she have such an idea? That was the Lord of the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple, Glass Saint.
Blinking, Ye Futian seemed to think about it seriously for a moment, then nodded and said, "Good idea."
"Go to hell." Hua Jieyu glared at Ye Futian. This guy really dared to think about it.
"You said it yourself." Ye Futian was a little depressed. Wasn't she turning on him too quickly?
"Well, I said it. Do you dare?" Hua Jieyu looked at Ye Futian with a smile. Ye Futian shuddered inexplicably. It was better to think about it.
If the Glass Saint knew that the two of them were whispering, who knew if she would slap them to death!
