At this point, the Fire Emperor had somewhat made a decision within his mind. Since Ye Chang Feng had been defeated, he decided to see if this Ye Liang Chen could emerge victorious after the remaining challenges and eventually become the Prince Consort.
In fact, he was hoping to use this Ye Liang Chen as a connecting thread to every other member of the Heavenly Explosion Faction. He wanted to recruit every outstanding member within that sect to flock towards the Fire Nation and serve him.
The Fire Emperor believed that as long as he granted wealth and statuses to these members of the Heavenly Explosion Faction, he would be able to attract them to come under his charge. He even believed that if these methods didn’t work, he could use the charm of women to entice them. As long as he had the assistance from the Heavenly Explosion Faction, becoming Emperor of all the five nations wouldn’t be a problem.
