Unprecedented Splendor
The sea in the Northern Region was still the same. There was no wind or waves, and it was very calm. The Martial God's restriction shrouded the entire Northern Region. It also prevented non-North Region warriors from entering, including those above Wu Jun. Those below Wu Jun would not be able to cause too much of a stir.
Of course, this kind of Restriction was only targeted at foreign martial artists. As for the martial artists who returned from the Northern Region, the Restriction would not stop or suppress them.
Therefore, Ye Fei's current realm was still at the Half-Emperor Realm. With his powerful strength, he could already see land after sailing on the sea for half a month.
There were fishermen dragging their fishing nets back from the sea. Many villages by the sea were already covered in thick smoke. A large number of warriors had left the Northern Region for the outer seas. The originally quiet seaside villages and small towns gradually became lively.
Unique inns had already been built at the entrances of many small villages. Signs with the word "Wine" stuck out from the verdant bamboo forests.
Groups of warriors who had just returned or were preparing to go out to sea were sitting around tables outside these villages. They were discussing the local customs of the Northern Territory and debating about their martial arts. Occasionally, there would be children from the village running out with knives, swords, and harpoons.
They stood far away and listened to the discussions of the martial artists. In their minds, they imagined the saber lights and sword shadows of the world of martial artists. Their immature little faces revealed yearning and anticipation. There were also bold children who, with their immature and trembling voices, hugged their wooden sabers and swords and asked for guidance from the martial artists. This caused a lot of good-natured laughter.
At this time, there would be big-footed women in the village, waving rolling pins, spatulas, and the like. They would run out angrily and grab all the children and bring them back. It was common for some of the more valiant ones to pull down their pants and start a fight in public.
To these ordinary villagers, the world of warriors was too mysterious and too dangerous. It was a world of blood and corpses. They would rather their children live a peaceful life than experience those terrifying flashes of swords and sabers.
This naturally caused the cultivators to burst into laughter again. Ye Fei also smiled. The men of the Northern Territory revered courage and bravery. Just a few beatings would not scare away the children's yearning for the world of martial artists. Instead, it would deepen the mystery of the world and attract them to continue exploring.
After walking past these noisy and bustling villages, the real Eighteen Kingdoms of the North Sea were right in front of them. Ye Fei had heard that in the ten years he had been away, the original eighteen kingdoms had all disappeared. Now, only one kingdom remained, and that was the North Sea Kingdom.
Zhao's royal family became the royal family of North Sea Nation. Zhao Sheng also became the emperor again. He was a capable emperor. Without the interference of the Empress Dowager, Zhao Sheng governed North Sea Nation to be very stable and prosperous. Praises for the Emperor could be heard everywhere.
On the main road, one could see many scholars carrying book baskets as they headed to the Imperial City for the examination. They were also martial artists, but while they were studying literature, they would also cultivate. However, these scholars cultivated not for the sake of killing, but for the sake of longevity.
The longer they lived, the easier it was for them to realize their ambitions and beliefs.
The Family Ye did not establish a kingdom.
This made Ye Fei very satisfied. There were only ten-thousand-year-old aristocratic families and no ten-thousand-year-old emperors. Compared to establishing a kingdom, establishing an aristocratic family was undoubtedly more in line with the current situation of the Family Ye.
The Sword Manor was still the same. It was the same as it was before Ye Fei left. The only change was that Ye Fei saw a huge statue in the square of the Sword Manor.
The statue shone with a golden light under the sun. A group of Family Ye's children would wake up early every morning to look at the statue and listen to the Elders tell the story of the Sage King.
Ye Fei could only smile bitterly at this. Fortunately, he had seen Ye Shenzong's statue, so he could somewhat accept his own golden statue.
Then, he spread out his Divine Sense and enveloped the entire North Sea Pass and the Sword King Mansion. He saw the Flood Dragon Blackie playing in the big pond. He also saw many young disciples of the Ye Family training hard on the martial arts field.
He also saw a study hall. Inside, there were learned scholars hired by the Ye family. They were teaching many young children about poetry and etiquette, advocating respect and courtesy.
As his psychic consciousness went deeper, he sensed many powerful people who were cultivating in seclusion. They were all titled battle pet warriors, Wu Jun. He was familiar with many of them, such as Jin Jizi from the Taixuan Holy Ground and the Dean of Tianyun Wufu.
After a long time, those seniors had also reached the titled Wu Jun's level, which made Ye Fei quite happy. Finally, he began to sense Ye Jian's energy.
Soon, in the inner hall of the Sword Manor. He sensed Ye Jian's energy and the energy of many elders of the Family Ye. In ten years, those elders had made great progress. The weaker ones had reached the Martial Grandmaster Realm and the stronger ones had reached the Martial Lord Realm.
There were also many new faces. Some of them were still very young, but they were able to attend important meetings of the Family Ye. Undoubtedly, they were the rising talents of the Family Ye.
At the moment, Ye Jian was gathering the core management of the Family Ye to discuss the future development of the Family Ye. At this moment, everyone felt dizzy. In the inner hall. There was actually a figure in a black robe, which scared many of the young experts of the Ye Clan half to death.
Someone had broken into the inner hall of the Family Ye without making a sound. That was unbelievable.
A young elder unleashed his Spiritual Aether, trying to take down the intruder on the spot. Ye Jian, who was sitting at the head of the table, waved his hand majestically to stop them. Then, he stood up excitedly. "Ye Fei, Uncle Jian isn't dreaming, is he?"
"Uncle Jian, you're not dreaming. I'm back. Thank you for your hard work!" Ye Fei saw Ye Jian's white hair. He knew that Ye Jian had sacrificed a lot for the Family Ye to achieve what it was today.
"Ye Fei, he's the Holy King Ye!"
"The Holy King is back!"
"That's great. I can't believe I've met the Holy King of the Family Ye!" Many young elders of the Family Ye hurried to greet him excitedly.
Many of the older generation of Ye Family Elders sighed in their hearts. Soon, Jin Jizi, who was alarmed, rushed in from his seclusion. "Boy Ye, you're finally back. Eh, your cultivation …"
Jin Jizi was now Wu Jun, who had reached the twelfth level of the Martial Saint Realm. However, he couldn't sense Ye Fei's current cultivation level.
"Half-emperor." Ye Fei said his cultivation level calmly.
Boom!
His words were like thunder, which shocked Jin Jizi so much that he almost fainted.
The elders of the Family Ye were so shocked that they opened their mouths wide and couldn't say anything. Only Ye Jian was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed and scolded in surprise, "Good boy, when Shanshan came back, she said you've become a powerful figure. You scared us half to death. It's only been a few years, and you've broken through to the Half-emperor level …"
"Gosh, there's a Half-emperor in our Family Ye …" With the news of Ye Fei's return and his breakthrough to the Half-emperor level, the whole Family Ye, the whole Sword King Mansion, and the North Sea Sea were all shocked.
