Ye Futian frowned. Xia Qingyuan had intentionally conveyed the news to him, but now she refused to let him in. It was obvious that she was taking revenge on him for his disrespect back in the Holy Zhi Palace.
Last time, Xia Qingyuan broke into his bedchambers, which made him unhappy, and he did not treat her well.
"Phew …" Ye Futian thought of Jieyu and said to the maid, "Please tell the Princess that if I have been disrespectful in the past, I am willing to come and apologize."
"If the Princess says she will not see you, then she will not see you. Please come another day, Palace Lord Ye." The maid's attitude did not change at all as she continued.
Ye Futian looked at the servant girl. His white hair fluttered in the wind, and his sharp eyes carried a hint of coldness. The servant girl felt a chill run down her spine when she saw his eyes. She averted her eyes, not daring to look directly into his eyes.
Ye Futian looked up at the high palace and felt a little cold inside. If Xia Qingyuan had come to take revenge on him for other things, he would not have cared. But to tease him with news of Jieyu, one could imagine how he felt.
"Please tell the Princess that I will come again tomorrow," Ye Futian said to the maid, then turned to the Village Chief and said, "Let's go."
Since Xia Qingyuan wanted to do this, there was nothing he could do. This was Emperor Xia's Palace, and anyone from Emperor Xia's Realm would have to bow their heads, let alone him. Who would dare to be angry?
"Bring him up." A voice came from above the palace, and it was somewhat ethereal. Ye Futian stopped and turned around. The maid looked at him and said, "Come with me."
Ye Futian walked through the Heavenly Gate and headed for the Heavenly Palace.
The Village Chief was still waiting outside. No one was allowed to enter Emperor Xia's Palace without permission, and it was the same for the saints. Xia Qingyuan only said to bring Ye Futian.
Ye Futian walked all the way up to the palace and came to the misty place of the Celestial Palace. It was beautiful, and the Spiritual Qi here was extremely thick, as if it was a real fairyland.
In the misty Celestial Palace, he walked across the celestial bridge and came to a lotus pond. A man's back appeared there, but when he turned around, his face was extremely beautiful.
"Ye Futian greets the Princess," Ye Futian bowed.
Xia Qingyuan did not say anything. She just looked at him coldly.
"You still have such an arrogant attitude even when you have a favor to ask?" Xia Qingyuan looked at Ye Futian and said. She could not feel any sincerity from him at all.
"How could I be so arrogant in front of Your Highness? What happened in the Holy Zhi Palace back then was my fault for not being able to treat Your Highness well. I am willing to apologize and hope that Your Highness will forgive me," Ye Futian said in a low voice.
"Hypocrite," Xia Qingyuan said coldly. Ye Futian looked up at her, trying to control his emotions.
Seeing his expression, Xia Qingyuan knew what he was thinking. She said coldly, "I witnessed the Sacred War at the Holy Zhi Palace three years ago with my own eyes. Hua Jieyu was clearly using external forces to unleash her power. After that, I deliberately investigated the previous trial grounds and found a relic that was passed down to an extraordinary person. Her method of cultivation was also different."
Ye Futian listened carefully. He felt a little nervous and asked, "Who is it? What's so special about their cultivation method?"
"Now that you've come to the Upper Worlds to cultivate, do you know how many realms there are in the Upper Worlds?"
"I don't know," Ye Futian shook his head.
"Three Thousand Realms of the Great Path." Xia Qingyuan looked at Ye Futian and said, "That is why I took the people of the Upper and Lower Realms of Emperor Xia's Realm out to train. We went to all realms, but we only went to a few places."
If it was any other day, Ye Futian might have sighed with emotion. But right now, there was only a ripple in his heart. It was gone in a flash. He continued to ask, "What does this have to do with my wife?"
"That relic was left behind by a top-notch figure in the 3,000 Realms. With a single thought, she could reach the 3,000 Realms. Your wife's spiritual soul was not destroyed, so it was possible that she could have taken it away. If that was the case, there was a chance that she could have survived," Xia Qingyuan replied.
Ye Futian's heart raced. He had already lost all hope. Even when Hua Qingqing left, he still couldn't believe it.
After all, he had seen Jieyu dissipate in his arms. Her physical body was destroyed, and the last of her soul floated to the sky. Even if she had not been destroyed at that time, how could she have survived?
Therefore, he did not hold out much hope.
But at this moment, hearing Xia Qingyuan's words, a flame of hope was ignited in his heart.
The Three Thousand Realms of the Great Path. With a single thought, one could reach the Three Thousand Realms.
If such a powerful being existed, then what else was impossible?
Perhaps it was really possible to take away a strand of Jieyu's soul and resurrect her.
Thinking of this, an extremely fervent feeling surged in his heart. It had been three years, and he, who had been in despair, suddenly found hope. One could only imagine how he felt.
"Princess, who is that top-notch figure?" Ye Futian asked.
"She is still too far away from you. Even if you wanted to go find her now, you wouldn't be able to do it. You'd better train hard and increase your strength to the level of Saint Plane first." Xia Qingyuan did not tell Ye Futian.
Ye Futian stared at her, but Xia Qingyuan said coldly, "Everything I told you is true. It's up to you whether you believe it or not. As for anything else, I won't say anything more."
She turned to face the pond after saying this, ignoring Ye Futian.
Seeing Xia Qingyuan's action, Ye Futian knew that he would not be able to get any more information out of her. He bowed slightly at her back and said sincerely, "Thank you for telling me, Princess. Sorry for the disturbance."
After saying this, Ye Futian turned to leave.
A figure appeared beside Xia Qingyuan without a sound. It was Emperor Xia.
Xia Qingyuan looked at Emperor Xia and said, "Father, you know that the Empress' method of training is special, and there may be countless people in the 3,000 Realms who have inherited her teachings, but that is just the Empress using it to train. Even if she does have the ability to save Hua Jieyu, the chances of her doing so are extremely slim. Father, why do you want me to tell him and give him hope? If one day that hope is destroyed, wouldn't it be a bit cruel?"
"You don't have the heart to do this?" Emperor Xia looked at Xia Qingyuan and smiled.
Xia Qingyuan's eyes were still indifferent, and she just looked at her father.
Emperor Xia naturally knew his daughter's temperament, and he smiled and said, "This guy is deeply in love, and his hair turned white because of love. It seems that for him, love is undoubtedly a very good motivation for training. Tell him this news, and he will work even harder in training in the future. Do you believe me?"
"If that day comes and his hope is destroyed, wouldn't the blow to his temperament be even greater?" Xia Qingyuan said.
"When that day comes, his plane will be even more stable, and he will not be so easily destroyed. Don't underestimate him. Don't forget, he defeated you before," Emperor Xia said with a smile. Emperor Xia said with a smile. The ruler of Emperor Xia's Realm would only be so gentle when facing his beloved daughter.
"That guy's temper, isn't it a bit bad?" Emperor Xia asked with a smile.
Xia Qingyuan did not reply. Emperor Xia looked at his daughter, and he naturally knew how proud his daughter was. Whether it was in status or talent, she was unparalleled in all of Emperor Xia's Realm.
The only person who could make her talk to others with such a good temper was probably someone who had defeated her.
If it had been anyone else, one look from her would have been enough to frighten them to the point of trembling.
"Who is he?" Xia Qingyuan asked curiously. She only knew that when her father was investigating Ye Futian, a mysterious person suddenly came to visit one day and directly descended into Emperor Xia's Palace.
After that, the ban was lifted, and her father summoned all the saints to the Upper Worlds, ordering that the news of the Sacred War be blocked, and sending shadow guards to the Lower Worlds to secretly monitor the movements of all those who participated in the war.
Such a degree of importance had never been seen since she could remember.
"Father would like to know as well." Emperor Xia rubbed Xia Qingyuan's head, revealing a doting look. That day when the mysterious cultivator came, combined with everything he saw and investigated about Ye Futian, he could roughly infer that Ye Futian's background might be related to shocking secrets, and that he was terrifyingly powerful.
Xia Qingyuan could not help but stare at her father angrily when she saw him rub her head.
Seeing her expression, Emperor Xia smiled and continued to rub her head.
If anyone from the outside saw this scene, they would have been amazed. It was said that Emperor Xia doted on the little princess very much, and the real situation was only worse than the rumors.
"However, no matter who he is, if he dares to make you unhappy, why don't I issue an order to have him serve by your side and listen to your commands?" The Xia Emperor laughed and continued, "Let's see if he dares to refuse."
Xia Qingyuan thought of how she had invited Ye Futian several times and had been rejected, and she was actually a little tempted. But then she thought of Ye Futian's "disgusting" face and refused flatly, saying, "No need."
"Very well. You'll have to tell me in the future," Emperor Xia said with a smile. He then disappeared with a flash.
…
The people of the Holy Zhi Palace stayed at the inn, and then everyone came out.
Ye Wuchen, Xu Que, and Zui Qianchou walked together. They had been cultivating together since they were in the Holy Zhi Palace, and they had a very good relationship.
"The Upper Worlds are really bustling. There must be a lot of good bars," Zui Qianchou said softly. This time, he had to broaden his horizons.
"Alcohol is so boring. The girls of the Upper Worlds are even prettier." Xu Que squinted at the side and looked at a female cultivator not far away. She had an otherworldly aura.
Cultivators of the Upper Worlds were generally of high levels, and it was only natural that they had extraordinary auras, and it was only natural that their looks were even more outstanding.
Ye Wuchen had long gotten used to the two of them and did not pay them any attention. Zui Qianchou was a real drinker, and as for Xu Que, he was just saying it.
At that moment, Xu Que stopped in his tracks, and then Ye Wuchen and Zui Qianchou stopped as well, sensing an aura.
Xu Que was from Tingxue House, so his senses were the most acute. He sensed the murderous aura coming for them.
Not far away, there was a group of figures riding on swords, descending in front of them in an instant. The group of people all emanated sharp sword will, and they were all cultivators of the sword.
Their eyes fell on Ye Wuchen and the other two, and their eyes were rather indifferent and exceptionally cold.
"Is there something I can help you with?" Xu Que squinted at the group of people. They had not been in the Upper Worlds for long, so they should not have offended anyone, right?
Unless it was an old grudge!
And these people were swordsmen, and they did seem to have a grudge against swordsmen!
