Ye Zichen hovered in the air outside the mud hut. Unsurprisingly, Yang Jian, the Great Sage, Pu Jingwan, and the Sovereign of Numinous Treasure stood beside him.
Apart from them, there were quite a few others.
They'd concealed their auras, so the village's immortals had no idea how powerful they were. However, when they saw the others besides Yang Jian and the others …..
The Lotus Emperor.
The Flame Emperor.
He was an immortal king expert who'd risen to prominence in the Immortal Region half a year after the demons' invasion. The Flame Emperor didn't need to be mentioned. He'd long since made his name in the Immortal Region.
He was on the same level as Fuxi and Suiren.
However, not long ago, Fuxi, Suiren, and many other experts ascended to the God Realm, leaving behind only the Flame Emperor.
Of course, the villagers still cared about Ye Zichen's identity.
"Big Brother Zichen, it's really you!"
The girl ran out of the hut and stood in front of the door for a long time. She stared blankly at Ye Zichen, and after a while, she finally confirmed it was him. Her pretty eyes misted over, and she pushed off the ground with the tips of her feet and pounced at Ye Zichen.
"It's really you …."
The newcomer was none other than Xue Qi's little sister, Xue Lan. It'd been a hundred years since they'd last seen each other, but it seemed as if she'd never grown up.
"Why do you still like to cry so much?"
Yang Jian smiled and gently wiped away her tears. However, the Great Sage and Yang Jian felt an inexplicable, cold aura wash over them.
They glanced over and saw Pu Jingwan gnashing her teeth and clenching her fists. She glared at Ye Zichen and Xue Lan in his arms.
"....."
Yang Jian and the Great Sage glanced at each other. Their shoulders trembled inexplicably, but they said nothing.
They could talk about other things, but when it came to matters of the heart, it was best not to butt in.
Little did they know, there was a woman standing in front of the hut, staring intently at Ye Zichen.
It was the valiant, short-haired woman from before.
Tears glistened in her eyes, but she simply bit her lip and watched silently. She didn't take even half a step closer.
"Lil 'Yu, I didn't think you'd become an immortal king too."
At that moment, Ye Zichen and the others descended from the sky.
When he reached the short-haired woman, Ye Zichen smiled and nodded at her.
"So what if you've become an Immortal King? The distance between the two of us is getting bigger and bigger."
Lil 'Yu's expression was somewhat desolate. Pu Jingwan's expression darkened even further. If it weren't for the fact that there were so many people around, she really would've pinched Ye Zichen by the ear and asked him just how many girls he'd offended.
A woman's intuition was always sharp. Even though Pu Jingwan hadn't said a word, Xiao Yu had still noticed her.
"Heh, I haven't seen you for a hundred years, but you still don't lack female companions."
"Sister Xiaoyu." Xue Lan pouted, but Xiao Yu pulled her back. "Xue Lan, you need to know that you're now the head of the Leisure House, and the leader of the Upheaval Alliance. After your brother left, he asked me to teach you well. Don't always act like a child, okay? "
"But she's Zichen-gege!"
"So what?"
Xiao Yu's tone was a little cold. Fortunately, Great Emperor Qingming walked out of the house at this time. The twins were just half a meter behind him.
"Emperor Ye." Great Emperor Qingming cupped his hands in greeting. "Great Emperor Qingming, after Fuxi left, the Flame Emperor stepped down, and the Immortal Region is under your control. I've long since left the Immortal Region, so I don't really care. However, shouldn't you give the Flame Emperor and Lotus Emperor an explanation? Forcibly occupying private property and treating human lives like grass? The Immortal Region has never tolerated such problems.
Fang. The Flame Emperor and Lotus Emperor trusted you, which is why they gave you their positions. "
"That really is my problem," said Great Emperor Qingming.
"Alright, it's a good thing no one really got hurt. We'll let this matter rest. Just be more careful in the future." The Lotus Emperor smiled kindly, then tapped the twins' foreheads. "I'll seal your spiritual seas for a hundred years. Go farm in the Immortal Region for a hundred years."
"Yes, sir!"
The twins didn't dare disobey. Besides, with their spiritual seas sealed, they were no different from ordinary people.
They could only nod in agreement. They'd reaped what they'd sown.
At that moment, Bai Yu suddenly took two steps forward, knelt, and kowtowed to Ye Zichen.
"Little Yu."
The old village chief's soft call didn't get a response from Bai Yu. After the youth kowtowed, he suddenly raised his head and pointed at the immortals in the village.
"Your Excellency, it doesn't matter if they stole our houses or if they ….."
Suddenly, the hearts of all the immortals in the village trembled.
Great Emperor Qingming's brows darkened. Instantly, quite a few people in the sky shouted, "Please forgive us, Your Majesty.
"Please forgive us, Your Majesty. We will move out of the house right away and compensate the owner of the house. Please forgive us. We didn't do anything to the residents. "
"Hmph."
Great Emperor Qingming snorted coldly, but at least he approved of their solution.
The immortals in the sky instantly dispersed. Ye Zichen helped the youth up from the ground with a smile, then walked up to the village chief.
"Uncle, I've startled you."
"Your Excellency, you're too serious."
The village chief was terrified. He'd never seen any major figures in his life. In his eyes, sky immortals were supreme existences. Yet Ye Zichen had rebuked the ruler of the Immortal Region, Great Emperor Qingming. His status was obvious.
Quite a few of the immortals who'd arrived relatively early and hadn't stolen anyone's house knit their brows.
Suddenly, one of them glared at the newcomer and called the others to his side.
"He's Emperor Ye!"
"Emperor Ye? Who's Emperor Ye?" Quite a few people didn't know Emperor Ye's identity, but when they saw the newcomer's astonished expression, their brows furrowed. "You mean the Emperor Ye who resisted the demons' invasion and then disappeared without a trace? Didn't they say he'd passed away? "
The person who'd thought of this first frowned deeply. "Look at his appearance. He's ninety percent similar to the statue in Pond City. Great Emperor Qingming, the Flame Emperor, and the Azure Emperor all look up to him. I'm afraid he's that Emperor Ye from before. Passed away? I'm afraid Emperor Ye has already become a god! "
"A god?"
Quite a few people gasped. Most of them were human immortals. Sky immortals were few and far between. In their eyes, immortal kings were unattainable. But this Emperor Ye was a god?
"Can he come back after becoming a god?"
"Who knows? In any case, we'd better behave for now. Don't provoke Emperor Ye and the others."
