The court assembly lasted a little longer than usual, but at the end of the assembly, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily. After the meeting, Yi Tian's name spread widely among the Asura nobles. Those who had met him before or were familiar with him naturally knew him.
At the same time, at the end of the court meeting, Luo Ziyan took back all her authority on the spot. Xun Wang's clone indicated that he no longer needed to split his attention to manage the court. In the future, he would focus on guarding the realm gate and no longer care about the court affairs.
As for Prince Wei, because he needed to cultivate in seclusion for a long time, he would gradually fade out of the court's political situation. His behavior caused his subordinates to suddenly lose their backbone. Quite a few people spoke out to urge him to stay, but Prince Naiwei had already made up his mind. He entrusted everything to the Imperial Guard Commander Qiao Yongjun to handle.
Two of the three Body Integration cultivators had left, and Hao Ren of Yun Lin's faction also felt the pressure. Previously, because of Prince Wei's faction, Luo Ziyan had no choice but to rely on Yun Lin to fight against them.
Now that the enemy was gone, these two factions directly admitted defeat, so the importance of Yun Lin's faction naturally decreased greatly. Hao Ren also felt a little scared. If he had known that Her Majesty had arranged a backup plan, he wouldn't have jumped out and done such a thing.
Fortunately, Luo Ziyan was still very considerate and comforted the three factions. Then, she promoted many nobles of the dynasty and distributed the power of the court to her direct descendants.
Among them, Imperial Censor Mei Baiji was promoted the fastest and entered the Ministry of Personnel in one fell swoop. In the future, it would be no problem for him to preside over the promotion and selection of officials. Luo Ziyan also hoped to use this opportunity to consolidate her position. After all, there were still three factions in charge. If she wanted to truly control the court, she would have to carry out a purge of the original officials. However, her method couldn't be too forceful. When necessary, she could only achieve the best results by combining kindness and coercion.
After the court meeting ended, Yi Tian followed Luo Ziyan back to the bedroom. In fact, Yi Tian had been living here all this time, so he was naturally familiar with the place. Previously, it hadn't been made public, but now that it was announced to the world, he felt a little awkward.
Knowing that Yi Tian was not used to having female attendants serving him in his bedchamber, Luo Ziyan dismissed them. Only when the two of them were alone did he put away the solemn expression on his face and lay on the bed with his arms and legs spread out. He muttered, "You didn't see how overbearing Xun Wang was at the beginning. It was as if he was going to eat me up. In the end, it's all for naught. "
Slowly walking forward, Yi Tian looked around and sighed, "There are always two sides to everything. Without the support of the Honorable King, you will have to think twice before you act in the future. Only by balancing the interests of all parties can you achieve long-term stability."
Luo Ziyan crawled up from the bed and sat at the head of the bed: "I also know about this matter, without cultivation, everything is fake. Unfortunately, Aunt Yun is still in seclusion and can't come out to help me. "
"In my opinion, Yun Lin might be in seclusion for a long time." Yi Tian waved his hand and said, "She will be the first to know about what happened in today's imperial court. The best strategy after this is still to cultivate in seclusion. If she really comes out, it won't be a good thing for you."
His words woke Luo Ziyan up from her dream. She turned around and said, "That's true. This time, Hao Ren was played by me. If Aunt Yun comes out, she will naturally have to face them. At that time, it will be difficult for her to deal with them."
Yi Tian paused for a moment before saying, "Now, you still have a few decades of leisure. After I leave this world, you will still have to rope in all parties to maintain the situation."
"Why, you're leaving?" Luo Ziyan was clearly not mentally prepared. She immediately revealed a look of surprise and said, "Is it not good here?"
With a bitter smile, Yi Tian shook his head and said, "It's not that it's not good. It's just that I'm not from this world."
"Then, you are now Prince Yi of the Asura Dynasty. You also have me by your side. With such a beautiful wife, wouldn't it be great to have power in your hands?" Luo Ziyan reprimanded. Tears seemed to be about to flow out from her eyes.
Seeing this, Yi Tian walked up and gently wiped her tears. After that, he said, "You should know my original identity, right?"
"Aren't you an inner disciple of the Taiqing Pavilion, one of the three factions of the Spirit World?" Luo Ziyan asked.
"In fact, I'm also a traitor of the Lifire Palace." Yi Tian's lips twitched. "I have something I must do. In the future, I will definitely have to face Master and Senior Brother Ji Xuanyuan."
"Why? You want to deal with a Mahayana cultivator of the Lifire Palace? Then who is your Master?" Luo Ziyan was puzzled.
"It's a long story. My Master is called Wu Ye. He's the same person as the one in the Lifire Palace." Yi Tian explained, "Let me tell you the details."
After that, Yi Tian briefly explained his relationship with the black-robed Patriarch Wu Ye, as well as his involvement with the Lifire Palace. Luo Ziyan's astonishment was indescribable, and she was unable to calm down for a long time.
After Yi Tian finished, Luo Ziyan pondered for a moment before replying, "According to what you said, this battle is inevitable. The opponent that Patriarch Wu Ye arranged for you is the number one Body Integration cultivator of the Spirit World, Ji Xuanyuan. What do you think your chances of victory are?"
"Right now, I don't even have a 10% chance of victory." Yi Tian shook his head in a dejected manner. "Senior Martial Brother has already been at the Body Integration Stage for 3,000 to 4,000 years, while I've only been at the Body Integration Stage for a year."
"Husband, don't belittle yourself. I think that since Ancestral Master Wu Ye chose you as his helper, he must have his reasons." Luo Ziyan didn't think so, and a bright light flashed through her eyes. "Didn't you say that Ancestral Master Wu Ye said that Ji Xuanyuan had already exhausted his potential and would at most remain at the mid-Body Integration Stage for the rest of his life?"
"What do you mean?" A perplexed look appeared on Yi Tian's face.
"Seeing as Ji Xuanyuan is the number one Body Integration cultivator of the Spirit Realm and has a Body Integration Stage bodyguard by his side, he's naturally extremely powerful. However, Patriarch Wu Ye is willing to let you deal with him because he knows that you have the ability to do so. There's no need to think too much about it. As long as you work hard to raise your cultivation to Ji Xuanyuan's level, coupled with the secret techniques and abilities you've obtained through painstaking cultivation, as well as the secret techniques of my Asura Race, it's not impossible for you to take on three people at once, "Luo Ziyan analyzed.
"That's indeed the case. Right now, I can only rely on myself." Yi Tian smiled.
"Then what do you plan to do next?" Luo Ziyan asked.
"I'm going to the Spirit Realm to find Patriarch Wu Ye and Meng Xin." Yi Tian solemnly said, "Back then, Master told me that I could contact him after reaching the Body Integration Stage. Furthermore, Meng Xin also left a message for me to go to the Spirit Realm's Fire Phoenix Race to find helpers after I've reached the initial stage of my cultivation."
"You can think about it yourself. If you need my help in the future, just send me a message. Even if I have to travel a great distance, I'll rush over," Luo Ziyan said.
