Long Bufan's eyes were also sizing up the monarch of a country in front of him. He was dressed in a golden dragon robe, and his face was still sickly. Even so, his gentle and reserved eyes were still bright and full of spirit, without the slightest sign of weakness.
"Lan Lei has already told me about your conditions."
The Emperor sat in front of the table and stared at Long Bufan. He asked in confusion, "I'm very curious. As an Outer Palace Disciple of Ling Xuanwu Province, you don't want to accumulate more cultivation resources and then be promoted to an Inner Palace Disciple or a higher level. Why do you want a territory?"
Long Bufan knew that the Emperor would ask this question. He smiled faintly and said, "There are two reasons why I want a territory.
First, I'm just a martial artist. My abilities are limited. Do you want me to use my own strength to fight my way out and help the Fourth Prince ascend the throne? This way of thinking may be too naive. If I have a territory, I can create a powerful force and have more confidence in the future.
Second, the sect rules of Ling Xuanwu Province forbid Inner Palace Core Disciples from having relationships with other forces. Since I've joined the Imperial Family's camp, it means that I can't be promoted to an Inner Palace Disciple in a short period of time. Therefore, I need to make plans for my future life and have my own protection. "
Long Bufan didn't mention the last point completely. As the saying goes, pigs can climb trees if the sect is reliable. After being confined for ten days, his life could be decided by a single sentence from the higher-ups of the sect. He deeply understood that he had to control his own fate.
Therefore, he wanted to create his own force and not be manipulated by others.
Now, this opportunity presented itself in front of him. He wanted to seize this rare opportunity and jump out of the shackles of Ling Xuanwu Province to achieve his goal.
Long Bufan believed that by relying on the 21st-century technology of his previous life, he could create a blueprint for that territory in his heart.
If he added runes to guns, cannons, grenades, and other technological products and equipped them to soldiers, he couldn't imagine how big of a commotion it would cause in this world.
The Emperor looked deeply at Long Bufan. He wanted to see through this young but mature boy's true thoughts.
"Knock, knock, knock …"
The Emperor tapped his fingers on the table, and the crisp sound echoed in the study. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Long Bufan wasn't in a hurry. He just looked at the other party quietly.
After a long time, the Emperor stopped hammering and said, "I agree to the territory you mentioned. As for the blood essence of the Fire Phoenix, I do have a drop of it in my treasury. "
"Really!" Long Bufan's eyes lit up. The Fire Phoenix's blood essence was like a life-saving straw for him. He was instantly energized.
The Monarch nodded. His eyes were filled with wisdom as he said calmly, "The blood essence of the Fire Phoenix is extremely precious. It can only be given to you after assisting the Fourth Prince in his ascension."
"Sure enough, it's not that easy to get." Long Bufan sighed inwardly.
Shortly after, Long Bufan asked curiously, "Your Majesty, I'm curious about something. Why don't you just pass the throne to the Fourth Prince now? Why do you have to wait until the princes fight for the throne and kill each other?"
