However, they were not gathered together. The Ye family cultivators were scattered throughout the palace, and they were known for their fondness for bringing Lin Ye's belongings with them when they went out.
This was a collective activity spontaneously organized by the young members of the Ye family to express their special gratitude to Lin Ye.
Indeed, the imperial palace has always sold merchandise related to the emperor, including belts, Taoist robes, talismans, elixirs, flying swords, and so on. People believe that this represents their support for the emperor.
However, the official merchandise is of very good quality, but the price is also a bit expensive.
Fortunately, there are inexpensive alternatives – stockings!
In this timeline, after Lin Ye established himself at the palace, he casually invented a magical artifact shaped like a stocking—it really was just a side effect...
Unfortunately, it wasn't particularly popular at the time.
As the saying goes, "What you sow, you reap," and this has gradually become a custom.
Some nuns would wear stockings.
It's essentially a cheaper version of something else, symbolizing the wearer's admiration for the emperor.
Another month passed, and Lin Ye's merchandise became a complete sensation among the Ye family cultivators. It had reached the point where people would suspect that someone was a Ye family cultivator if they went out wearing a full set of Emperor merchandise.
The Ye family is also quite willing to admit this.
Some male cultivators have also developed the habit of wearing stockings, and they even prefer classic white pantyhose.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ye raised his eyebrows repeatedly. He quickly released a series of men's Taoist robes and trousers with very long hems to avoid being an eyesore, but it was ultimately just a cover-up.
Lin Ye looked up and fell into deep thought.
Fortunately, I usually stay in the Little Immortal Court.
He had originally hoped that after annexing the Ye family, this prominent family would produce one or two chosen ones for him.
As a result, wearing white silk became fashionable among the Ye family.
A chosen one wearing white stockings... this... this isn't right!
Fortunately, although the Ye family members were extraordinary, Lin Ye was also quite intelligent.
'Is there any way for me to get all the female cultivators in the Ye family pregnant?'
'...Cultivating the Great Dao through dual cultivation!'
'I've never seen anyone walk this path alone. I should be the first to go, hehehe!'
Leaving aside Lin Ye's random thoughts.
This trend that swept around the palace became a weapon of the Wild Curse.
The harmonious relationship between Lin Ye and the Ye family was widely praised, and outsiders affectionately referred to it as the "stocking friendship," since many Ye family cultivators wore stockings to show their support for the emperor.
Thanks to the promotion of Huangzhou, the trend quickly swept across the Eastern Divine Continent, and the export volume of Linye's peripheral products also increased by 330% compared with the same period last year.
Furthermore, this number will increase.
The Ye family, as the annexed force, is so loyal to Lin Ye that it can even start a trend of consuming emperor-related merchandise.
Lin Ye had just killed the head of the Ye family; anyone who didn't know better would think he was the hero who saved the Ye family!
No, those so-called heroes might just be weapons used by the higher-ups, definitely not the kind of powerful figures like His Majesty the Emperor who can clear all obstacles and still win the loyalty of the people.
Lin Ye used a combination of open and overt tactics, which were almost obvious at a glance.
Some members of the Ye family are thoughtful, and if they ponder the dramatic changes that have occurred in such a short period of time, they might feel a sense of suffocation.
He then discovered that the image of Lin Ye in his memory had transformed into a giant hand, obscuring the sky and the sun.
Since they had already tasted the benefits, after thinking it through, they decided not to think about it anymore.
The silent struggle continues; the emperor is great!
Lin Ye's impression of them had already been shattered.
The thought of his clever Ye family cultivators wearing white silk beneath their Daoist robes made Lin Ye feel quite breathless.
As for the female cultivators of the Ye family who were wearing stockings, Lin Ye was also troubled about how to take them all down in one go.
Regardless of his inner thoughts, Lin Ye's swift and elegant way of devouring the Ye family was quite remarkable!
However, the neighboring Jiuli Immortal Dynasty still felt a sense of shared sorrow at the loss of their ally.
Officials in the capital of Jiuli were suddenly filled with fear and insecurity.
In fact, compared to the Ye family, the Nine Li Immortal Dynasty was the real darling in the eyes of the Daoist cultivators, and they were well aware of this.
The Ye family, a powerful clan in the immortal sects, already occupies a relatively small area compared to other major powers.
On average, aristocratic families have smaller territories than sects, and sects have smaller territories than celestial dynasties. This is determined by the organizational structure of the power.
As the largest power in the Eastern Divine Continent, the Nine Li Immortal Dynasty has more than twenty times the territory and population of the Ye family.
Seeing the fate of the Ye family, how could the Emperor of Jiuli not feel a chill run down his spine?
For several days in a row, the Jiuli Emperor frantically sought support from the major powers of the other three continents, but communication was very difficult.
The other party was not unwarranted in their suspicion of Lin Ye.
Instead, they were busy forming alliances internally.
Sit down, we have no intention of involving the Eastern Divine Continent forces!
The major powers in Beihengzhou are preparing to build strong walls and tough shields, all in order to resist the two-pronged attack from the Imperial Palace and the Great Wilderness in the future. However, coordinating the grand alliance of various forces is fraught with difficulties.
Xihe Prefecture is also preparing for war. It is said that they have developed a substitute for the Wild Curse called the Spirit Network to guard against the possible propaganda war that Lin Ye Hedgehog may ignite. Meanwhile, various forces are arguing over the construction and ownership of the Spirit Network.
The super power "Holy City" in Nanzhan Prefecture has actually conquered a force with a Mahayana cultivator in charge. It seems that they also want to learn from the palace and take advantage of the chaos of the blood disaster to unify the south before coming to fight Lin Ye again.
Do you think anyone here has time to pay attention to the Nine Li Immortal Dynasty?
The emperor of the Jiuli Immortal Dynasty was furious.
Busy, everyone is busy, it’s better to be busy.
"Do they only intend to hold their ground in the continent and lack the courage to launch an attack on Lin Ye?" The Jiuli Emperor trembled with rage.
The young princess said loudly, "Father, let's ask the Holy City of Nanzhan Continent for help!"
“Of course…” the emperor said in a deep voice, “all parties must continue to negotiate.”
"We must stall Lin Ye's side until we receive aid... We'll pay any price as long as we can survive."
The emperor said, "Once my army from the outer continent arrives, the spirits and gods will flee, and everything will be alright."
With the Ye family annexed, the Jiuli emperor wisely chose to endure humiliation.
But once reinforcements arrive, he is the one most willing to personally pierce Lin Ye's heart.
Lin Ye was fully aware of this, but simply said, "Leave it alone!"
Compared to destroying the Jiuli Immortal Dynasty.
Lin Ye's plan is to go into seclusion for the next two years and convert all the extra lifespan into Qi Refining levels.
A cultivation level of tens of thousands of Qi Refining stages.
Lin Ye couldn't imagine how comfortable it would be to spend all of his lifespan in one go.
After leaving the pass, he should go to the Tianbao World to face the terrifying Realm Martial Emperor (suspected).
If the complete version of the Discipline Star can be successfully brought back, its vast coverage and zero-energy consumption will give the Palace, where young geniuses gather, a significant advantage on large-scale battlefields.
Then we'll see what kind of reinforcements the Nine Li Immortal Dynasty can summon.
Kill them all!
Lin Ye wanted to go into seclusion and not make a move, but he couldn't resist the fact that the Nine Li Immortals knelt before him.
They were even willing to exist as vassals.
A fake look.
This is clearly a delaying tactic!
Even if acquiring such a large vassal could strengthen Lin Ye's dynastic principles, it wouldn't align with Lin Ye's objectives. Everyone knows that this fake ally will betray him when the real war arrives.
“Make them cede territory.” Lin Yedao said.
"I only want to control the territory."
Upon receiving Lin Ye's reply, the emperor of the Jiuli Immortal Dynasty felt a sudden chill.
'My God, he actually asked me for...'
'All the coastal prefectures and counties, plus the capital!'
'That's a huge plot of land, a huge population, and such a valuable spiritual vein! How could he even ask for it?'
And we'll have to move the capital!
Don't I want to lose face?
If the capital is forced to be moved, the damage to its prestige will be negligible, but it will be almost the same as paying tribute and becoming a vassal state of Lin Ye.
If it were a tribute mission, when the Jiuli Immortal Dynasty led a large number of reinforcements to kill their ruler, it could still be said that they were enduring hardship and biding their time, and they could regain their prestige.
But if the capital is moved and territory is ceded, the lost prestige can never be regained.
This subtle difference was a fatal blow to the cultivators of the Dynasty's Dao.
The Emperor of the Nine Li Immortal Dynasty was so frustrated that he was about to vomit blood. Moreover, he was still unsure whether Lin Ye was testing his bottom line or taking advantage of his delaying tactics to make exorbitant demands.
This majestic and ruthless emperor of the immortal dynasty found it increasingly difficult to clear his mind of the cession of territory, and he even tore off a handful of his own hair.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he realized:
This young emperor's greed was unparalleled in the world.
You really shouldn't mess with them!

Chapter 479 The Great Vow, The New Era After the Evil Immortal, Qi Refining Level 60,000 (4k)
Lin Ye was very interested in the principles of his dynasty.
He himself is still in the process of figuring things out.
In the process of gradually eroding the Ye family's power, Lin Ye was also refining his own dynasty's principles.
Although the principles of dynasties are highly extensible, they are not all-encompassing.
The derivative effect of Lin Ye's Dao is the ability to control the direction of things, and its influence can normally cover three large cities.
'Control the direction? What do you mean? Do you think I'm good at setting the pace?'
'I don't have a yiO壹⒎-4捂IX司玖吧! This is clearly my first time being a big leader in my life!'
Lin Ye found the Dynasty Dao Principles very easy to use.
It truly is the path that best suits me.
There is no loss when he changes the direction of tangible matter.
The downside is that changing the direction of an intangible entity requires consuming faith power!
The consumption was surprisingly low.
For someone like Lin Ye, whose faith power is abundant, this is very strong!
Just as stopping time is the best attack and the best defense.
