Avoiding Future Troubles
"The Emperor is dead. This Baili Emperor is a man of integrity …"
Looking at the Baili Emperor who was stabbed into the ground like a javelin, Ye Fei's heart trembled. He felt a little apologetic and a little emotional. However, an enemy was an enemy.
There was no right or wrong between the two sides in this battle. There was only life and death. This had already been decided when the Baili clan issued the bounty in accordance with the orders of the school of Legalism.
"Ye Fei, it's really you. No, I should call you Your Highness now. Disciple Ning Zhongchen pays his respects to the Chosen Saint!"
Before the battle ended, Ning Zhongchen led a group of officials from the Yong Ning Empire out of the Imperial Palace.
After ten years, the former number one sword of the Snow Wind Empire had changed a lot. The most obvious change was Ning Zhongchen's aura. He had lost the sharpness of a sword and gained the dignity of a leader.
Ye Fei looked at Ning Zhongchen and nodded. Then, he shook his head regretfully. "Ning Zhongchen, I heard that you became the Crown Prince?"
Ning Zhongchen smiled bitterly. "With my talent, it's hard for me to achieve anything in the Martial Dao. Rather than despair in the Sacred Court, it's better to come back to the secular world and establish a hegemony. However, I will always be a disciple of the True Martial Sacred Court.
Ning Zhongchen's attitude was very humble. Especially after seeing Ye Fei destroy an empire alone, he became even more cautious. He didn't dare to act like a Crown Prince.
Ye Fei didn't pay much attention to Ning Zhongchen. Instead, he sighed and pointed at the Emperor who died with a military flag. "He was a courageous Emperor. You must follow the Emperor's etiquette and bury him!"
"Yes, Chosen Saint, do you have any other orders?" Ning Zhongchen nodded. When he saw the Baili Emperor commit suicide, his heart was moved.
"No more. The Snow Wind Empire was destroyed because of me. Today, it will be reborn because of me! From now on, as the Crown Prince, you must treat the people well and nurture more martial artists to join the True Martial Sacred Court. " Ye Fei thought for a moment. Since he had nothing to add, he turned around and left the palace without looking back. He also left the Asura Field that was littered with corpses.
Seeing Ye Fei's casual attitude towards the Crown Prince, an official of Yong Ning Empire said with dissatisfaction, "Crown Prince, since Ye Fei killed all the half-step emperors of the Baili Family, why didn't he kill the other half-step emperors of the Baili Family? With his strength, he could've completely destroyed the Baili Family and saved us a lot of trouble …"
"Shut up!"
Ning Zhongchen glared fiercely at the official, then sighed and said, "Ye Fei killed his way into the Imperial City alone with his sword. This is his bravery. He did not vent his anger on the old, weak, women, and children of the Baili Family. This is his benevolence. He is a pure martial artist … But I am different. I have already given up on the path of martial arts. I cannot give up on the path of the Emperor. If the Holy Son cannot bear to do it, and disdains to do it, then I will do it!"
"Men, pass down my order. Seal off the Imperial Palace and kill all the people of the Baili Family. Leave no one alive! This will not only eliminate the root of the problem for the Saint, but also prevent future troubles for the Yong Ning Empire! "Ning Zhongchen's face was filled with killing intent.
Then, he began to walk towards the remaining officials to win their hearts.
At the same time, Ye Fei brought Ruyan and her brother out of the Imperial City to a restaurant outside the city. The three of them sat down and ordered some food and wine.
Ye Fei poured a cup of wine and raised it. "Brother Liu, Miss Liu, cheers to our reunion!"
"No, we should be the ones toasting you. Without you, Chaoyang would have died a long time ago. I wouldn't be able to drink with you here." Ruyan Liu raised her glass. Her eyes were filled with gratitude and surprise.
At this moment, Liu Zhaoyang finally came back to his senses from the magnificent battle. His injured eyes had recovered, and the scars on his face had all disappeared. This also made his originally gloomy personality become much more cheerful.
Unlike Ruyan, who was reserved in front of Ye Fei, Liu Zhaoyang was still the same as before. He warmly clinked his cup with Ye Fei and then sighed helplessly. "Sigh, comparisons are odious. I thought I could surpass you after awakening my special bloodline. Who would have thought that I, a warrior from the Northern Region, would one day become the Saint of the Saint Academy? Brother Ye, you've kept me in the dark!"
After that, Liu Zhaoyang's eyes flashed with a hint of bitterness. Ye Fei was speechless. At the same time, he looked at Ruyan curiously. "Now that you've come to the Central Province, what are your plans?"
Ruyan stroked her hair and said, "We came to the Central Province mainly to find the relic. If possible, we'd like to invite you to explore the relic with us."
"Relic? Didn't you already explore it? "Ye Fei was a little confused.
The two siblings looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Ruyan said, "The relic is very powerful. With our strength, we could only explore the periphery. It's already very dangerous. If we go deeper, we won't be able to do it. Ye Fei, you're different. You have the strength. If you can enter the relic, you'll definitely gain more than us. "
Liu Zhaoyang also interrupted, "Ye Fei, you saved us. We don't have anything to repay you. We only know about the relic. If you're willing, we can take you there. We can also follow you and gain some benefits."
Ruyan also nodded seriously. Her limpid eyes looked at Ye Fei expectantly. Obviously, the two siblings had already discussed and decided to use the relic to repay his kindness.
If Ye Fei rejected them now, they would be disappointed. In fact, after seeing Liu Zhaoyang's strange shadow martial arts, Ye Fei was already curious about the relic. Now that he had the chance to explore it, he naturally wouldn't reject it.
After a simple meal, the two siblings brought Ye Fei to catch up with each other as they hurried to the relic they discovered.
What surprised Ye Fei was that the relic wasn't in the deep mountains or old forests. Instead, it was hidden in a deserted house in the middle of the city. It felt like a haunted house.
This made Ye Fei even more curious about the relic.
Not long after, the news of Ye Fei single-handedly destroying the Hundred Mile Empire spread throughout the Central Province through various channels. Once again, it caused an uproar in the four Sacred Courtyards.
"Ye Fei is really good at causing trouble. I heard that he not only killed the Saints of the three academies in the Dragon Head Realm, but even the Quasi-emperors of the three academies were killed by him …"
"That's old news. The latest news is that the demon Ye Fei defeated the Goddess Lu Qing in the True Martial Sacred Academy. It's said that he even forced her to sleep with him …"
"Sleep with him? She's such a good cabbage. How could she be tainted by this demon? This beast, this scum. Is there no one in the three great sacred academies who can defeat him? "
"Defeat him? Do you think that Ye Fei is called the Demon Saint for nothing? Not long ago, Ye Fei single-handedly destroyed the Hundred Mile Empire!"
"Sss, who can stop this demon Ye in the future …"
