The Great Ruler: Starting from the Lower Plane

With his current status as a Sword Emperor, hosting a grand event across the continent and inviting powerful figures from all sides would indeed be the fastest way to collect these two spiritual treasures.

Although the Sword Continent has been closed for tens of thousands of years, there are still quite a few powerful individuals above the Sword King realm. Perhaps there will be news of the Essence of Blazing Fire and the Jade Marrow of the Profound Heaven Sword.

"That is certainly feasible."

"With your current strength, no one would dare to disrespect you by hosting such a grand event. Moreover, if those people knew about this opportunity, they would probably be eager to curry favor with you."

"The extraordinary phenomena that occurred when you broke through have already alarmed the powerful figures throughout the Sword Continent. Those old guys are probably already itching to get back to work."

"Now that you've taken the initiative to extend an invitation, they'd be more than happy to oblige. If they actually have what you need, they could easily establish a connection with you."

Su Zhen stroked his beard, a slight smile on his aged face.

With Ye Feng's current strength and status, he is undoubtedly the number one person in the Sword Continent, and his word is law, with no one daring to disobey him.

This grand gathering held at the Burning Heaven Sword Sect was less an invitation from Ye Feng to gather all the powerful figures of the Sword Continent, and more a command.

"Then let's set it for two months from now. I'll trouble the four elders to take care of this matter."

Ye Feng nodded with a smile, his eyes deep.

During the preparation time that Su Zhen and his companions spent distributing invitations and gathering the strongest warriors of the Sword Continent to the Burning Heaven Sword Sect, he was able to gain some insights and improve his strength within the Sword Fall Space.

Once the conference is over, regardless of whether there is any news about the two spiritual treasures, the Essence of the Blazing Fire and the Jade Marrow of the Profound Heaven Sword, he should leave this world and head to the Great Thousand World.

He was merely trying his best to collect the two great spiritual treasures in this world; there was no need to be obsessed with it for too long.

"Haha, leave these trivial matters to us."

Jiang Qingcang laughed heartily and readily agreed.

"Speaking of which, since the founding of our Burning Heaven Sword Sect, we have never produced a Sword Emperor. This grand event is worthy of being recorded in the history of the Burning Heaven Sword Sect. It is a sect sacred event that only happens once every ten thousand years."

Chen Yuan smiled and replied, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

"Sword Emperor level experts are extremely rare. Fortunately, one emerged from my Burning Heaven Sword Sect. It was my foresight back then..."

Su Zhen stroked his beard, his face full of pride, his cloudy eyes gleaming with satisfaction.

Back in the Great Li Dynasty, he secretly followed Ye Feng for half a year and brought him back to the Burning Heaven Sword Sect. In retrospect, this decision can be considered the wisest choice he made in his hundreds of years of life.

"Junior Brother's insight is truly remarkable; we are all ashamed of our own inferiority."

Jiang Qingcang shook his head and smiled, not hesitating to offer praise.

"Now that things are settled, I won't bother the elders any longer. As for Qingxue and the others, we still need to appease them a bit."

Ye Feng smiled slightly, cupped his hands in farewell, and took his leave.

"Go on, kid. You've been so focused on cultivation, you should spend more time with them before you go to the Great Thousand World..."

"..."

……

Tianxia Academy.

After returning from the Burning Heaven Palace, Ye Feng did not rush to enter the Sword Fall Space to cultivate and comprehend the supreme sword dao secrets within. Instead, he quietly went to Jiang Zhenyue's room and waited for her to finish her cultivation.

With his journey through the vast world imminent and no one knowing when he will return, he naturally wants to spend some quality time with the three women.

Over the years, he has been busy with cultivation and has spent little time with Su Qingxue and the other two women, which has caused him much distress. Now that he is about to leave, he naturally wants to make up for it.

After all, they were a married couple who had gone through the traditional wedding ceremony.

Among the three women, Su Qingxue is aloof and alluring, Jiang Zhenyue is bright and enchanting, and Chen tide is gentle and graceful. Each of them has a distinct personality and their own unique charm.

Now that he has already given Su Qingxue his company, he naturally cannot show favoritism to the remaining two.

One hour later.

When Jiang Zhenyue finished her cultivation and slowly opened her eyes, she saw Ye Feng sitting at the table, looking relaxed. His handsome face with its distinct features had a faint smile on it as he looked at her.

"My husband..."

Jiang Zhenyue was slightly taken aback, then her bright eyes filled with surprise and delight. She quickly got up, walked to Ye Feng's side, and sat down in his lap without any restraint, wrapping her arms around Ye Feng's neck.

"When did you get back? Why didn't you call me?"

Jiang Zhenyue smiled sweetly, her bright eyes filled with joy.

Ye Feng reached out and embraced the slender waist of the beauty in his arms, feeling the soft and warm touch, a smile appearing on his lips.

"I had just returned and saw you were cultivating, so I didn't disturb you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhenyue felt a surge of sweetness in her heart. She pressed her face against Ye Feng's chest, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, and gently inhaling his scent.

"It's good that you're back, otherwise Zhenyue would have been left alone in her empty room forever."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng gently stroked Jiang Zhenyue's hair and spoke softly.

"I'll spend some quality time with you all before I leave, don't worry..."

Jiang Zhenyue's delicate body stiffened slightly. She raised her head, a complex look flashing in her bright eyes.

Are you going to that vast world?

She couldn't sense her husband's strength, nor did she want to ask, but some realities were ultimately unavoidable.

Ye Feng nodded slightly, making no attempt to hide anything.

"Well, two months from now, after the sect's sacred ceremony concludes, barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will leave the Sword Continent and head to the Great Thousand World."

Although she had expected it, Jiang Zhenyue still couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness when she heard Ye Feng say those words. Her eyes reddened slightly, her delicate nose twitched, but she forced herself not to let the tears fall and managed a weak smile.

"With your talent, my husband, this world can no longer confine you. It would be good if you ventured into the vast world..."

Seeing the beauty in his arms so sorrowful, Ye Feng felt a pang of pain in his heart. He raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears that were about to fall from Jiang Zhenyue's eyes, his voice exceptionally gentle.

"I'm not going away and won't come back. It may take a hundred years or a dozen years, but I will definitely come back to pick you up in the future."

"Just pretend I'm in seclusion, just like before."

"century…"

Jiang Zhenyue repeated softly, a hint of sadness flashing in her bright eyes.

A hundred years may not seem like a long time for cultivators, but for the three of them, it was a long and arduous ordeal.

However, he cannot be willful in this matter, nor does he have any right to be willful.

Her husband's path lies in the vast world beyond this lower plane.

"Waiting for you under the moonlight."

Jiang Zhenyue raised her head, her bright eyes filled with determination. Then she smiled and leaned close to Ye Feng's ear, her breath sweet as orchids.

"My lord, before you leave, please spend some quality time with us, especially... me..."

As she spoke, Jiang Zhenyue boldly took Ye Feng's earlobe into her mouth and gently sucked on it.

Ye Feng's body stiffened slightly, then a fiery glint flashed in his eyes. He looked down at the beautiful woman in his arms, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"You little vixen, really..."

Before Ye Feng could finish speaking, Jiang Zhenyue's red lips pressed against his own.

A moment later, their lips parted.

Jiang Zhenyue's face flushed as she sat up, looking down at Ye Feng with a haughty gaze. Her bright eyes shimmered with tears, and her voice was sweet and charming.

"So what if he's a Sword Emperor...?"
