The imperial capital. The first level of the sky.
The Heaven's First Floor was not the most luxurious part of the imperial city, but the Heaven's First Floor was the most famous part of the imperial city.
Ye Fan and Shi Yang found a room and drank while chatting. Very quickly, they were already slightly drunk.
"Brother Shi, just as Shen Chunjiang said, in the capital, are all these forces dependent on one side?"
Ye Fan asked with a deep tone as he held his wine cup.
"Who do you think has the most power in the capital?"
Shi Yang glanced at Ye Fan and asked a question in reply.
"Within the imperial city, the imperial power is naturally the strongest. There is no doubt about this."
Ye Fan replied without even thinking.
"That's right. How could the majestic capital of the capital, under the watch of the Emperor, allow so many gangs to appear?" Have you thought about that? "
Shi Yang poured a cup of wine into his mouth and said with a smile.
"Do you mean to say that these powers were ultimately subordinate to the royal family?"
Ye Fan's body shook suddenly, as if he had understood the relationship between the two of them.
"More or less. However, powers at our level do not have the qualifications. We can only rely on powers like the Spring River Pavilion. So it turns out that we are attached to the Black Dragon Guild."
Shi Yang nodded and said solemnly.
"I know this, but what Vice Pavilion Master Liu said today, they are under the command of the Qi King, so who is this Qi King?"
Ye Fan asked.
"In our Flying Cloud Country, the authority of the king is paramount, it is an imperial power that cannot be violated by anyone. Below the king, the four kings of the imperial city held the greatest power. The Qi King was in charge of the city's guards and was responsible for the security of the imperial city. However, the Spring River Pavilion is not directly under the direct command of the Qi King. They are loyal to the second son of the Qi King.
Shi Yang said solemnly.
"Since there are four kings in the capital, then who are the other three kings?"
Ye Fan nodded, and asked suspiciously.
"Other than the Qi King, there is also King Luo. He is in charge of the soul group and is responsible for scouting out intelligence reports as well as supervising the various powers in the imperial city. Then there was Ling Wang, the younger brother of the current king. He was in charge of the imperial army and was the king's true confidant. However, he rarely cared about the matters outside, so the powers under his command weren't too great. Then there's the King Qinguang, who is in charge of the Qianji Camp and is in charge of the defense outside the imperial city.
Shi Yang said solemnly.
Ye Fan couldn't help but nod his head. Amongst these dukes, the only thing that Ye Fan knew about was that Duke Luo was in charge of the soul group, because the Yue Chenhao he killed before was a member of the soul group.
"Brother Shi, could it be that all the forces in the capital have chosen one of the four kings as their backer?"
Ye Fan asked.
"That's right. Actually, Vice Pavilion Master Liu is right. If one wants to establish a foothold in the imperial city, one must choose a force to take shelter in. Otherwise, once one grows big, they will be suppressed by the four great powers."
Shi Yang nodded and said.
"To put it more clearly, even if we, the forces, were to live in the imperial city, we would have to see the expression on the faces of the four kings."
Ye Fan said in a serious tone.
"This is precisely the reason. Nearly half of the wealth that we gathered in the imperial capital has to be handed over to the imperial family. That's why so many powers are able to safely survive in the imperial capital." Do you think the city guards won't be able to see us causing such a ruckus today? You haven't received any news at all? The reason why they did not appear is because, regardless of how these powers change their positions, they are, in the end, the greatest winners. "1
Shi Yang said solemnly.
In that case, why don't the four kings negotiate with each other and give the capital a prosperous and peaceful environment?" As long as they coordinate all the powers, wouldn't there be no more disputes?
Ye Fan asked.
"Brother Ye, what the four kings are in charge of is a part of the imperial city's defense, so why are they in charge of one area each? Wouldn't it be more convenient for one person to manage and coordinate? This is naturally the king's intention, letting the four kings restrain each other, this is the safest method. As for these factions within the imperial city, they naturally had to follow the factions they were loyal to. And with competition, we will eventually produce an even more powerful cultivator, which is what our Flying Cloud Country wants. If we get too settled, the quality of our cultivator will definitely drop a lot, and at that time, our nation's power will decline. "
Shi Yang said solemnly.
"I understand, only with competition can we cultivator evolve."
Ye Fan nodded and said.
"So, we have to choose a faction. When we are still very weak, no one cares. But once we get stronger, the Fourth King will definitely extend his olive branch to us. At that time, we won't be able to choose even if we don't want to. "
Shi Yang said solemnly.
"Speaking of this, Brother Shi, which side should we choose?"
Ye Fan asked.
"In my opinion, if we were to make a choice, Duke Ling would be the best choice. Because he doesn't have many forces under his command, that's why he values us."
Shi Yang pondered for a moment before speaking.
"In my opinion, as long as we are strong enough, it would be the same no matter who we choose. At that time, we would naturally be valued."
Ye Fan said in a serious tone.
