"Unfathomable!" This was Ye Tianze's impression of this Diva at this moment.
He originally thought that even if Diva had some strength, she would at most be like Zhao Mingcong, an empty shell that couldn't be put on the table at all.
But now, it seemed that this Diva was definitely a dragon among men. Her strength was probably ranked in the top few of the Heaven List.
Facing Diva's pressure, Ye Tianze didn't resist. Not only was resistance futile, but he might also follow Diva's wishes.
Sure enough, seeing that he didn't struggle or resist, Diva withdrew her pressure and said, "Just now, you were unwilling to submit in front of the late emperor's Dharma Body. Why are you so obedient in front of this consort?"
Ye Tianze let out a long breath and said, "Diva is an old friend. Since you're an old friend, there's naturally no reason for you to hurt me."
"Mm!" Diva sneered, "When did you find out?"
"When I saw you save Dutian Yulong in the Southern Land, I already knew." Ye Tianze said and raised his hand to salute, "This young one greets Sect Master. Many thanks to Sect Master for your guidance along the way. This young one is very grateful."
Diva was silent. Ye Tianze felt that pair of starry eyes were sizing him up.
"Very grateful? This consort sees that you don't have the slightest bit of gratitude. "Diva said," Since you've seen through it, I won't hide it from you. "
"Why did Diva save Dutian Yulong?" Ye Tianze asked.
"It wasn't this consort who wanted to save him. It was Her Majesty who wanted to save him." Diva said, "However, it's true that this consort was the one who had to save him later on. You brat, you're truly audacious. You even dared to exterminate the Dutian Clan. If I had known earlier, I would've dragged you in as well. Then, there wouldn't have been so much trouble."
"The Human Emperor wants to save Dutian Yulong. It can be understood that His Majesty the Human Emperor owes Bai Ye a favor. However, Empress Diva wants to save …" Ye Tianze was a little confused.
The person in front of him was the real Lord of Yuxu Sect, the one who disappeared with the Pavilion Master. However, Ye Tianze didn't expect that he would be Diva at that time. He just looked like a woman at that time, but he didn't expect that he was really a woman.
"Since you're so smart, why don't you guess again?" Diva said.
"Could it be that the Zhao family also owes White Night a favor?" Ye Tianze asked. "No, the Zhao family probably framed White Night, so …"
"Since you already know, there's no need to ask so much." Diva said.
"Then now … where is Dutian Yulong?" Ye Tianze asked.
"You won't stop until you kill him?" Diva asked.
"Cut the weeds and dig up the roots!" Ye Tianze said.
"What a good 'cut the weeds and dig up the roots'. How can you be so murderous at such a young age?" Diva said, "You can't kill him. He is now in the hands of your sworn enemy, Heavenly Academy. Oh, no, it should be in the hands of Wuji Pavilion."
Ye Tianze smiled bitterly. This Diva was really resourceful. She even knew what happened outside the city.
"So … Empress Diva was in charge of Yuxu Sect at that time?" Ye Tianze asked.
"That's just one of my avatars." Diva said, "But you guessed wrong. I'm looking for the destined person."
"What do you mean by the destined person?" Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"You are the fated person of this Empress, the fated person that His Majesty is looking for. Otherwise, do you think you could run amok in the Southern Border?" The Empress of Heaven said, "You should feel honored."
Ye Tianze suddenly thought of Zhao Mingli's words. The Human Emperor was playing a game of chess, and he was just a chess piece. Diva was the manipulator of the Human Emperor.
There were some things that Diva had to do, and she stood at the height of the Human Emperor.
"What's the honor of being a chess piece? One day, maybe one day, I will become an abandoned chess piece." Ye Tianze said.
"You are exactly the same as before." Diva said, "However, His Majesty is right to make this move with you."
"So, I'm going to come to the Dragon Realm and be roasted on the fire?" Ye Tianze said.
Diva was a little surprised. She knew that Ye Tianze was smart, but she didn't expect him to be so smart. She said, "Since you know that you are going to be roasted on the fire, why are you still killing the strong people of the Heavenly Academy outside the city?"
"There are some things that can't be avoided."
Ye Tianze said, "Since I can't avoid it, it's better to face it head-on. Before the enemy makes a move, I'll take the initiative to gain the upper hand, so as not to fall into a disadvantage and become an abandoned chess piece."
Diva was silent. Her words to Ye Tianze were really unexpected. If it were an ordinary person, he or she would either hide it or fill it with righteous indignation.
Unlike Ye Tianze, who was so calm in the face of his destiny as a chess piece. He seemed to be facing his destiny, but there were many struggles.
"You really do have the wind of Taiyi on you," Diva suddenly said.
Ye Tianze's expression changed slightly. In this world, only Tuoba Yun and Qin Weiyang knew his identity. Zhu Que only knew that he was the successor of Taiyi, but she didn't know that he was Taiyi.
He immediately thought of the Vermilion Bird, suspecting that the Vermilion Bird was a pawn of the Empress of Heaven. After all, the Vermilion Bird was the guardian of the Southern Land, and her first loyalty was to the Emperor.
But he quickly dispelled this thought. Zhu Que couldn't possibly betray him.
"Stop guessing. You can't fool everyone with that little thing," Diva said. "It's no wonder that the Profound Lord's Dharma Body attacked you."
"Empress Diva, aren't you going to ask me how I obtained Taiyi's legacy?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance. Make up a story for me to hear?" Diva continued.
"…" Ye Tianze was speechless.
"I don't need to know. However, this path will definitely be very difficult. Since you've borne the cause, you naturally have to bear the consequences," Diva said. "It's time to inject new vitality into this pool of stagnant water."
"So, Your Majesty, you want me to break out of this situation?" Ye Tianze asked.
"You?" Diva's tone was sarcastic. "You're not qualified. However, you can be a catalyst!"
Even as Ye Tianze was feeling puzzled, the pressure from before appeared once again. This time, he reacted quickly, but when the force entered his body, he was completely stunned.
However, when it hit him, his spiritual power was directly rushed from his meridians back to his sea of energy. Then, this power immediately sealed the four spiritual cores in his sea of energy.
Even his body was instantly covered in dense runes, as if a needle was being threaded through. His strong body instantly became weak and powerless.
Ye Tianze's expression immediately changed. He asked, "Diva, what are you doing?"
"You have killed people from the Heavenly Academy and the Tool Refining Sect, so you have to give them an explanation. However, His Majesty has temporarily sealed your cultivation because of your military exploits. The seal will be released when you truly repent."
Diva finished speaking and smiled. "Don't thank me. I'm just following orders!"
Thank?
Ye Tianze wanted to curse in his heart. He didn't believe that the people from the Heavenly Academy and the Tool Refining Sect would give up so easily.
If he went out in his current state, he probably wouldn't even be able to defeat a cultivator in the Convergence Tripod Realm.
