The Emperor Regrets
The words of the two finally moved the Snow Wind Emperor. He stood up from his throne and said, "My son, Grand Preceptor Ning, what you said is reasonable! I am not wrong! If I didn't tolerate him, how could Ye Fei, a cripple abandoned by the heavens, have today's achievements? Since this person still has great value, so what if I have to endure some humiliation for the empire? "
The voice of the Snow Wind Emperor became louder and louder. The gloominess on his body was no longer there. Instead, he regained the bearing of an Emperor.
"So what if I call him trash? I am the Emperor of an empire. As long as I promise enough benefits, I don't believe that these poor cultivators from the outer seas won't be moved!"
The Snow Wind Emperor had even made up his mind. In order to rope in Ye Fei, he would even marry all the princesses of the imperial family to Ye Fei.
"Men, pass down my orders. Ye Fei is loyal to the empire and promotes the empire's prestige. The empire will celebrate the return of the hero for three days! Zhu Wenwu, follow me to the plaza. I want to personally welcome the pillar of the empire! "
"Long live Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"This is great. Ye Fei obtained the first rank of the Sky Ranking. According to the rules of the Central Region Empire, our Snow Wind Empire is now a first-tier empire. Not only will our empire not be destroyed, but we will also have the possibility of annexing other declining empires!"
Seeing that the Snow Wind Emperor had finally thought it through, the civil and military officials present were ecstatic. As for Baili Zhen, who they once fanatically pursued, now, who would have the mood to think about that dead man? Even without Ye Fei's words, these civil and military officials might even instigate the Snow Wind Emperor to chase the Baili Family out of the empire to curry favor with Ye Fei.
This was the way of survival in the imperial court. It was cold and realistic.
Just a moment ago, when they talked about Ye Fei, the courtiers avoided him like the plague. But now, when they talked about Ye Fei, the courtiers' faces were flushed red. It was as if without them, Ye Fei wouldn't have achieved today's achievements.
Hence, when the teleportation array was activated. When the large group of Snow Wind Empire's warriors were teleported back to the plaza of the imperial palace, they saw an incomparably shocking scene.
Millions of soldiers lined up in a mighty formation to welcome their return. From the civil and military officials to the family heads of the various aristocratic families, all of them were standing in two rows with passionate expressions.
At the very front was a majestic figure. He wore an emperor's robe and faintly exuded a lofty aura of looking down on the world. It was actually the Snow Wind Monarch who came out personally to welcome him?
What a great honor this was!
Soon after, the warriors that were teleported back had bitter expressions on their faces. How nice would it be if the Snow Wind Emperor was here to welcome them? Unfortunately, they knew that there was only one person who could know that the Snow Wind Emperor would make such a grand gesture. That person was Ye Fei.
Shua!
All of a sudden, all the Snow Wind Empire's martialists turned their gazes to Ye Fei, who was the last to come out. Xue Wushang's face was filled with disappointment. Ning Zhongchen's gaze was complicated. Jiang Xiaomo was suddenly filled with anticipation and excitement. Her father had already made such a gesture. Could Ye Fei redeem himself?
"Children of the Snow Wind Empire, you are the pride and glory of my empire. Especially Ye Fei, who has greatly increased the prestige of my empire. I have neglected him in the past. I hereby apologize to him!"
After speaking, the Snow Wind Emperor looked towards Ye Fei's direction and slightly nodded his head, revealing an expression of expectation and appreciation. Then, an old eunuch quickly stepped forward and opened the imperial edict that he had prepared long ago.
"By the will of the heavens, the Emperor decrees: Ye Fei is loyal to the empire and has raised the prestige of my empire. I hereby confer upon Ye Fei the title of True Martial Sword King, hereditary. His descendants shall share the empire with me …"
Boom!
The moment the imperial edict came out. The returning warriors were collectively shocked. Ye Fei was a little surprised, "Looks like the Snow Wind Emperor paid a huge price in order to rope me in. He is even willing to share the empire with me! Doesn't that mean I'm a king on par with him? "
"Hmph, only now do this. Back then, he treated us as trash and casually threw us away. Now that he regrets it, he wants to pick us up and treat us as treasures. What does he treat us as?" Xia Jun was indignant.
Thinking back to the days when they were shunned like the plague in the Degenerate Inn, Lin Tianjiao and the little fatty both nodded their heads with deep emotions.
"Ye Fei, what do you plan to do?" Lin Tianjiao asked.
"Didn't I already make it very clear what I'm going to do? Ask for my forgiveness. Unless the Snow Wind Emperor kneels down and begs me, do you think he has the sincerity to apologize? "
Even though he was apologizing verbally, he wasn't even willing to bend his body. Ye Fei shook his head and couldn't be bothered with the nagging eunuch. Without saying anything, Ye Fei turned around and walked out of the palace. It was as if he didn't see the surrounding millions of soldiers, the Snow Wind Emperor, the civil and military officials, and the various Patriarchs.
"… Specially bestowed, Ye Jian, five billion spirit stones, fifty beauties, ten mansions …" The old eunuch was still reading the imperial edict in his hand, but his voice was constantly trembling and sharp.
However, Ye Fei didn't seem to hear these voices. He just turned around in front of everyone, ignoring the imperial edict and the Snow Wind Emperor. Just like how the Snow Wind Emperor ignored him back then.
The millions of soldiers were in an uproar!
The civil and military officials looked at each other in shock!
The Snow Wind Emperor's face was ashen. Suddenly, a strong sense of humiliation, anger, and killing intent emerged from his body.
The Ninth Prince even knelt on the ground with a plop. His face was filled with malevolence, "Father, this Ye Fei is simply an ungrateful wretch. Your son requests to order the millions of soldiers to kill this bastard!"
The Snow Wind Emperor's ashen face was also somewhat moved.
However, before he could make up his mind, he sensed that the situation wasn't right. Suddenly, the Imperial Tutor Ning, who was the first to support him, seemed to have aged a lot. He trembled as he said, "Your Majesty, your subject is already old. I'm afraid I can't share your burdens anymore. Your subject will take his leave!"
"Your subject will also take his leave!"
"Your subject wishes to resign and live in seclusion. Your Majesty, please allow it!"
Realizing that Ye Fei was ignoring the entire empire, all the courtiers were anxious. The astute Imperial Tutor Ning immediately resigned and many courtiers followed suit.
They finally understood that roping in Ye Fei was the Snow Wind Empire's last struggle. Once they failed, not only would the Snow Wind Empire fail to become a first-rate empire, it would also be quickly swallowed up by other empires. At this moment, these courtiers with high authority naturally wouldn't die with the Snow Wind Emperor. They simply took this opportunity to resign and draw a clear line between them.
"You, you bunch of bastards!" The Ninth Prince's face was filled with resentment before it turned into fear. The Snow Wind Emperor's face turned red as he felt a deep sense of humiliation and anger. But before he could vent out the anger in his heart, the Snow Wind Emperor's face turned red.
The entire Imperial Capital was filled with thunderous cheers.
"Long live the Snow Wind Emperor! Long live the True Martial Sword King! "
"Your Majesty is wise and mighty to discover a genius like the Sword King. You are truly a wise ruler!"
"Long live, long live, long live!"
Following the Snow Wind Emperor's orders, the entire Imperial Capital began to celebrate in advance. Everywhere, there were people singing praises of the Snow Wind Emperor, saying that he was wise and powerful, that he was a wise ruler, and that he had a discerning eye.
