It was to be expected that Fu Ting had not come.
The repercussions of a trip to the Immortal Court were not to be underestimated.
Still, those who had come from Ingenious Flying Peak were of the same generation as the Brocade Emperor and the Grand Plainness Origin Lady Tao Yu.
After receiving them, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di exchanged looks.
It seemed like those of Ingenious Flying Peak were indeed unaware of the matter of the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud.
In having come this time, besides exchanging pleasantries, there had only been one thing they had wanted to talk about.
Still, this was a matter of immense influence.
Simply put, the Brocade Emperor who had headed to extradimensional space after his battle with Mars Halberd had sent back a message.
Yan Zhaoge's battle at Circumference Mountain where he had slain a personal disciple of the Brocade Emperor's lineage and two longtime Elders of the Southern Exalt's lineage as well as Wutong Slope could be said to be the most influential matter in the World beyond Worlds in recent times.
It was fine if they could not communicate with him. Once the communication channel was clear, Ingenious Flying Peak would definitely inform the Brocade Emperor as soon as possible.
This had nothing to do with Fu Ting's or Tao Yu's opinion of Yan Zhaoge as it was only a matter of course.
Rather unexpectedly, the Brocade Emperor replied very quickly.
The contents of his reply even surpassed some people's expectations.
"He will settle the matter at hand as soon as possible, returning before the Heaven Emperor. If the Heaven Emperor is in trouble, will he act?"
Yan Zhaoge muttered to himself, looking at his father Yan Di who was also frowning slightly.
The Brocade Emperor Fu Yunchi was close friends with the Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie. Therefore, when Cao Jie was facing pressure from the Heaven Emperor, the Brocade Emperor had been willing to help him.
Still, if the Heaven Emperor turned to deal with Broad Creed Mountain, it was hard to say if the Brocade Emperor would still act.
While Yan Zhaoge was on friendly terms with Fu Ting and the other disciples of Red Lotus Cliff, with the Brocade Emperor having invited him and his father to the Minor No Hatred dao arena as guests back then, it was clear that he viewed them in a different light.
Still, no one could say for sure how this Emperor viewed Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain.
Especially if he would stand up for Broad Creed Mountain and fight to the death with another True Immortal?
After all, in consideration of stabilizing the overall situation of the World beyond Worlds, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors rarely clashed directly as they generally restrained each other.
If the Brocade Emperor knew of the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud and knew that Yan Di possessed it, it would be easy to explain.
Previously, Yan Zhaoge had still had to make some preparations in order to obtain a direct lineage martial art of the Grand Clear direct lineage from Ingenious Flying Peak's Red Lotus Cliff.
While the supreme martial arts of the Jade Clear lineage that he grasped were useful to the Brocade Emperor, they were not essential.
But now, the situation was completely different.
The head of the Grand Cosmos Five Grand Manifestations, Grand Simplicity, was the only connate supreme martial art that Ingenious Flying Peak lacked.
If they could gather all of the Grand Cosmos Five Manifestations, it would be far more than just a single martial art to the Brocade Emperor and Ingenious Flying Peak.
From a certain perspective, if Ingenious Flying Peak had to exchange the other four Grand Clear connate ultimate techniques for a Taiyi Fist, they might be willing.
He had used the Taiyi Fist to exchange for the Brocade Emperor's help in resisting the Heaven Emperor.
With this bargaining chip, the weight was enough.
"The Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud entered the World beyond Worlds from extradimensional space. Could the Brocade Emperor have sensed it?" Yan Di knit his brows slightly.
It did not matter if the Brocade Emperor knew about it. What he was concerned about was how the Brocade Emperor knew about it.
As the owner of the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud, Yan Di had the intention and also the need to understand everything related to this.
Yan Zhaoge lightly rubbed his temples, "There is this possibility, but there are also other possibilities."
Ingenious Flying Peak had said that the Yan father and son had only gone to the Minor No Hatred dao arena because of the Brocade Emperor's invitation. In the end, the Brocade Emperor had stood them up.
An Emperor standing up two Seeing Divinity Martial Saints did not seem like a big deal at all.
Yet, Mars Halberd had attacked the Minor No Hatred dao arena afterwards, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di had been caught in the crossfire for no reason at all.
Afterwards, Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting had been stranded in the Immortal Court, helping each other out in times of trouble.
Fu Ting had been able to return from the Immortal Court as soon as possible thanks to Yan Zhaoge.
Therefore, the Brocade Emperor had both apologised and thanked him this time.
This could be explained.
While there seemed to be a gap between their current statuses, the Brocade Emperor had always been carefree and easygoing. It was not impossible.
Still, this was still up for discussion.
Yan Zhaoge did not intend to measure the heart of a gentleman with the yardstick of a petty person. Still, it was not his personality to place all his hopes on the moral integrity of others.
The Brocade Emperor had left a very good impression on Yan Zhaoge up until now, and it was also true that he was carefree and easygoing.
Still, it would be wrong to think that he was a warm-hearted and good person.
Observing his life, Yan Zhaoge could vaguely guess that the Brocade Emperor cultivated in the lineage of the Grand Clear lineage, walking the path of Grand Oblivion.
While Grand Oblivion was not heartless, the Brocade Emperor was definitely not a sentimental person like many people thought him to be.
It was not without reason that he had only had Fu Ting as his only child in his later years.
That was likely due to the principle of the Grand Divination Number Fifty, of which forty-nine were used, Grand Unity not being used.
Fu Ting's birth signified that the Brocade Emperor had transitioned from the stage of never touching a single flower to the stage of only taking a single scoop of water. This signified that his cultivation base had become purer.
Still, Yan Zhaoge could not predict how the Brocade Emperor would proceed from here on out.
This would directly determine the Brocade Emperor's style of doing things.
From how much he cared for Fu Ting now, the situation was still rather optimistic.
Of course, Yan Zhaoge had another guess.
It was also related to the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud. Still, it was not the Taiyi Fist.
Yan Zhaoge looked at Yan Di. Understanding his meaning, Yan Di said, "Wait and see."
"Forging iron requires one's own strength," Yan Zhaoge nodded, "This is not a reason for us to relax."
Yan Di said approvingly, "That's right."
While the Brocade Emperor's stance was a pleasant surprise, the most important thing for Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di would definitely still be raising their strength.
Exchanging the Taiyi Fist for the Brocade Emperor's help would most likely succeed. Still, unless it was absolutely necessary, neither father nor son would consider this possibility.
Still, it was useless to just express one's determination and shout slogans in order to deal with threats that could come at any time.
There had to be a practical way to do so.
Amidst diligent cultivation, Yan Zhaoge was also unceasingly sorting out his thoughts.
After stepping past the boundary between human and Immortal and attaining the Leakless True Immortal stage, the arts of the human realm would no longer be able to harm them.
However powerful a Martial Saint was, however powerful they were, they would still be unable to harm a True Immortal just by themselves.
This was because the two sides were no longer on the same level.
If humans wanted to stand against Immortals, they would have to find another way.
Of course, there were no absolutes in this world.
There was indeed a way for Martial Saints to slay Immortals.
In the ancient historical records, there had once been four Exalts of the Prime Clear direct lineage who stood at the peak of the human realm who had joined forces to establish the Immortal Exterminating Formation, successfully slaying an Emperor.
This sufficiently displayed the great power of the Numinous Treasure Four Swords and the Immortal Exterminating Formation that could extinguish the myriad heavens.
Since ancient times, there had only been one way for Martial Saints to slay Immortals without the help of external objects.
Still, the Immortal Exterminating Formation had long since been lost.
For the current Yan Zhaoge, this method clearly did not possess any reference value.
The Nine Bends Yellow River Formation was naturally good. Its most famous effects were losing the mind of an Immortal, vanishing the soul of an Immortal, trapping the form of an Immortal, harming the qi of an Immortal, harming the original form of an Immortal and harming the limbs of an Immortal.
Still, without the core Immortal Bewitching Pill and the Secluded Immortal Mantra, it would be unable to do anything to Emperors who had already pushed open the door to Immortality.
