As soon as he said this, the space suddenly became quiet.
Was Ye Futian born with the surname Ye, or was he given the surname Ye?
Many people didn't know what happened back then, but as the top forces in the Divine Prefecture, they naturally knew some inside information. The person he was talking about was a taboo existence in the Divine Prefecture. In front of Princess Donghuang, he didn't even dare to mention the person's name directly.
However, everyone present naturally knew who he was referring to.
Back then, it was Emperor Ye Qing, one of the two emperors of the Divine Prefecture, who was as famous as Donghuang the Great.
However, many years ago, Emperor Ye Qing died suddenly, but the top forces in the Divine Prefecture all knew that Emperor Ye Qing died at the hands of Donghuang the Great. In the Divine Prefecture, besides Donghuang the Great, who else could kill Emperor Ye Qing?
Even if a Great Emperor was killed by a sneak attack, no one below the Great Emperor level could kill him.
Only Donghuang the Great could do it. Since then, Donghuang the Great ordered all traces of Emperor Ye Qing to be erased.
Now, they found out that Ye Futian came from Qingzhou City, and Princess Donghuang had been there before. There was a statue of Emperor Ye Qing there.
Combined with Ye Futian's and Yu Sheng's talents, the top forces in the Divine Prefecture began to connect Ye Futian with Emperor Ye Qing and came to report to Princess Donghuang.
If this was confirmed, Ye Futian would die without a burial place.
Moreover, even if it was not confirmed, as long as Donghuang Imperial Palace suspected Ye Futian, he might be completely finished. He would have no future, and he might even be taken away by the Imperial Palace.
Donghuang the Great had erased all traces of Emperor Ye Qing. How could he tolerate people related to Emperor Ye Qing, especially when Ye Futian might be someone very close to Emperor Ye Qing?
Was Ye his original surname, or was it given to him?
No matter what, Donghuang Imperial Palace would not allow it.
An invisible pressure shrouded the space. Princess Donghuang's beautiful eyes shot out a terrible divine light. Her eyes flashed with extreme sharpness as she looked at the cultivators below.
"You suspect that Ye Futian is related to Emperor Ye Qing?" Princess Donghuang said bluntly. Others did not dare to mention Emperor Ye Qing's name, but Princess Donghuang did not have too many scruples. Even if Donghuang the Great knew, what could he do to his only daughter? He didn't care at all.
"Ye Futian's background is suspicious, and he has great talent. Moreover, he has been able to inherit the inheritance of the Great Emperor time and time again. After learning of his background, we have also investigated many things. We can't help but suspect this." "However, we don't know what the truth is. It's just a guess. That's why we came to the Empty Imperial Palace. The Princess will investigate and make a decision. We don't have to worry about this."
As long as they could prove that Ye Futian was related to Emperor Ye Qing, then they wouldn't have to worry about dealing with Ye Futian. However, they probably wouldn't have the chance to get the secrets Ye Futian was hiding, as well as the inheritance and treasures he had obtained.
Once the Imperial Palace decided to make a move against Ye Futian, then everything that belonged to Ye Futian would belong to the Imperial Palace, and they would have nothing to do with it.
Of course, it also eliminated a threat. At the very least, Ye Futian would not have a chance to grow.
"Got it." Princess Donghuang said coldly, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly. The Imperial Palace will take action. For the time being, don't get involved in this matter and don't tell anyone else."
"Yes, Your Highness." They bowed and left.
It was enough for them to come here and warn Princess Donghuang. They didn't need to worry about what would happen next.
After they left, in the Empty Imperial Palace, several figures appeared behind Princess Donghuang. Their eyes fell on Princess Donghuang. One of them was surrounded by divine light. It was extremely gorgeous. Standing there, he gave people a sense of extraordinary nobility, as if he was a superior figure.
"Your Highness, do you want to go to the Heavenly Mandate Realm and take Ye Futian down first?" Asked the man. His voice was indifferent. It was as if taking down Ye Futian was just a trivial matter for him.
Donghuang the Great ruled the Divine Prefecture. The entire Divine Prefecture was under the jurisdiction of the Great Emperor. It was difficult for the forces of the Divine Prefecture to deal with Ye Futian, but if the Imperial Palace wanted to deal with Ye Futian, it would only take a word.
Now, this matter involved Emperor Ye Qing. Whether it was confirmed or not, they could take him down first and investigate later.
Princess Donghuang looked into the distance and seemed to be thinking. She didn't respond to the man's words. After a moment of silence, she said, "Send someone to monitor his movements. Don't take him down for now. Now that Ye Futian is the ruler of the Original Realm, he has great influence. If he isn't, wouldn't it be a misunderstanding? I'm afraid he will resent the Imperial Palace. Wait until everything is investigated before making a decision."
"Alright." The person behind her responded. He wasn't worried that Ye Futian would escape. If the Imperial Palace wanted to take Ye Futian, he could only escape to other worlds. Otherwise, if the Imperial Palace wanted to take him down, where could he escape to?
"I'll make the arrangements," said the cultivator.
He then turned around and left with a group of people. He arranged for someone to monitor Ye Futian's movements.
Although the Princess ordered them not to tell anyone, if they could think of it, other forces in the Divine Prefecture would probably think of it as well. If they guessed correctly, it would easily alert the enemy, and Ye Futian would probably find a way to escape from the Divine Prefecture.
Therefore, Ye Futian's movements must be monitored at all times.
…
Ziwei Segmentum, Ziwei Imperial Palace.
Ye Futian was a little uneasy these days. He seemed to have a bad feeling about this.
All of this was still related to the battle that day.
Jieyu and Yu Sheng returned one after another. They were also reunited. They should have been happy, and he was indeed happy. But then he became a little worried.
During that battle, the people of the Divine Prefecture mentioned that they had investigated him. In addition, Xi Chiyao also reminded him that Yu Sheng's return would probably make the people of the Divine Prefecture more suspicious. Although the matters of the Nine States were extremely far away from here, those top forces could still find out many things. Unless the entire Nine States disappeared, his past could not be covered up.
Therefore, as long as they continued to investigate, even if there were no clues, the forces of the Divine Prefecture would probably guess. When that time came, it would probably lead to trouble.
At this moment, a figure broke through the air and landed in front of Ye Futian in an instant. It was Fang Gai. There was a look of worry on his face. He said to Ye Futian, "As you guessed, now the outside world has begun to spread rumors about you. I'm afraid it's not good."
"What news?" Ye Futian's heart trembled slightly. Looking at Fang Gai who had returned, he had a bad feeling.
"Now, there is a rumor circulating in the outside world that you may be related to Emperor Ye Qing. You may be Emperor Ye Qing's heir, or even a descendant," Fang Gai said. Ye Futian's pupils contracted slightly. It seemed that his perception was not wrong. What should come, had come!
