In Ziwei Imperial Palace, Ye Futian sat alone in his sleeping quarters. He seemed to be thinking.
Hua Jieyu came to his side and sat quietly behind him without disturbing him. She could tell that Ye Futian had something on his mind, so she just stayed by his side quietly.
The news brought by Mei Ting disturbed Ye Futian's mind.
First, he had to determine whether Mei Ting's news was true or not.
He guessed that it should be true. Mei Ting had no reason to lie to him. If this was a conspiracy of the Devil World against him, there was no need. If the Devil Emperor wanted to deal with him, it would be a piece of cake.
Moreover, he had seen Yu Sheng's status in the Devil World. If Yu Sheng was fine, Mei Ting would not have schemed against him.
He hoped that it was false, but he basically ruled out this possibility.
Then the next question was, what should he do?
Mei Ting was right. Given Yu Sheng's character, it was impossible for him to compromise. While Mei Ting did not know what kind of person the Devil Emperor was, he was certain that the master who ruled the Devil Realm must be extremely domineering and overbearing. Even the cultivation methods of the Devil Path were extremely overbearing.
Could the Devil Emperor tolerate Yu Sheng's intransigence?
"Idiot!" Ye Futian cursed in a low voice. He seemed to have made some kind of decision. He exhaled and turned to look at Hua Jieyu. She smiled sweetly at him and reached out to move the white hair on his forehead. Her beautiful eyes were full of tenderness.
Feeling this tenderness, Ye Futian felt much better. He said softly, "Jieyu, how long have we known each other?"
"If you count the first time we met, it has been 137 years. If we are together, it has been 133 years," Hua Jieyu said softly. This year was already the 10,033rd year of the Divine Prefecture Calendar. They held hands when the 10,000th year of the Divine Prefecture Calendar arrived and the sky was filled with fireworks.
"More than 100 years." Ye Futian smiled at the beauty in front of him and said, "At that time, Yu Sheng and I were still teenagers. You were the first beauty of Qingzhou Academy. When you fell in love with me, the people in the academy probably thought that you were blind."
"They must have been blind." Hua Jieyu smiled sweetly.
Ye Futian shook his head and held Hua Jieyu's cheeks with both hands. He said, "In this life, the luckiest thing that happened to me was meeting you and being Yu Sheng's brother."
A gentle smile appeared in Hua Jieyu's beautiful eyes, but she whispered, "Yusheng, did something happen?"
Ye Futian was stunned. Then, he smiled and said, "I can't hide anything from you."
"Other than Yu Sheng, who else could make you so emotional?" Hua Jieyu smiled. "Are you going to the Devil World?"
"Yes." Ye Futian did not dare to look Hua Jieyu in the eyes.
"Go ahead," Hua Jieyu said directly.
Ye Futian was stunned and looked at Hua Jieyu in surprise.
That was the Demon World, and Yu Sheng was imprisoned by the Demon Emperor.
The dangers of this trip could be imagined.
"It's Yusheng we're talking about. Why would I stop you?" Her beautiful eyes were still smiling. She said, "Don't worry, I won't go with you. I'll just wait for your return at Ziwei Imperial Palace."
She understood what Ye Futian was thinking.
But just as she said, it was Yu Sheng. What could stop Ye Futian? How could she stop Ye Futian?
If she and Ye Futian were in danger, would Yu Sheng stop them? No, she would only stay with Ye Futian.
But she knew that Ye Futian would not let her go, so she would wait here quietly.
Ye Futian looked at that beautiful face, and his heart warmed. The person who understood him the most in the world was probably Hua Jieyu.
…
Taishang Domain, Divine Prefecture
Taishang Domain was one of the most powerful domains in the Divine Prefecture. The Taishang Domain Chief's Manor was one of the top three in the 18 Domain Chief's Manors. There were also two super forces, one of which was the Ancient God Clan, the Jiang Clan.
In addition, there was the Shen Clan.
The surname of the Shen Clan was Shen. Their ancestors were God-level existences, great emperors. It was just that their inheritance was broken, but their strength was still very strong.
But now, the Shen Clan was well-behaved. They had been attacked once, and many cultivators were still trapped in the Ziwei Segmentum. They did not even dare to participate in the war against the Ziwei Segmentum.
Even today, the Shen Clan was still worried. Would Ye Futian settle the score with them?
The clan leader of the Shen Clan had been cultivating in seclusion, trying to become stronger and take another step forward. Only then could he rest easy.
On this day, the God Race Patriarch was cultivating within the clan.
All of a sudden, a terrifying wave of the Great Path emanated from the surroundings. The clan lord of the Shen clan suddenly opened his eyes, and his will swept out. Then, a silhouette suddenly appeared in front of him. This silhouette was dressed in white and had white hair. He was extraordinary.
Seeing him appear, the God Race Patriarch's expression changed. In the end, he still came.
It was none other than Ye Futian.
"Looks like this battle is unavoidable." The person in front of him had killed two major figures from Celestial Worthy Mountain and the Mo clan. There was no need to doubt his strength. However, the clan leader believed that his own strength would not be weaker than those two.
But even so, he still didn't have much confidence. Being able to fight and killing were two completely different concepts. The difference was huge.
"Whether or not we fight is up to you," Ye Futian said calmly, standing with his hands behind his back.
The God Race Patriarch frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"What happened back then was a grudge between the Shen clan of the Lower Worlds and me. Although you all participated in it later, it was not necessary to kill you. I can give you a choice," Ye Futian said.
"Speak." The God Race Patriarch could naturally feel Ye Futian's arrogant attitude. Although he was very unhappy, his strength was not as good as Ye Futian's.
The fact that Ye Futian could appear in front of him without a sound already proved many things. If he wanted to act, the Shen clan would be razed to the ground.
"From today onwards, the Shen clan will listen to me," Ye Futian said. Ye Futian said in a domineering tone. He wanted a major force to submit to him and listen to his orders.
Otherwise, why would he let them go?
The God Race Patriarch's expression was not very good. The Shen clan was the descendant of the gods. They had been around for many years and dominated a region. In the Divine Prefecture, they were a top force.
Now, Ye Futian wanted them to lower their heads and surrender.
"You are a humiliation to the Shen clan," the God Race Patriarch said coldly.
"If you cannot accept this humiliation, then can you accept destruction?" Ye Futian stared into his eyes and said, "This is a simple choice."
Surrender, or destruction!
"Although you have killed two top figures, you may not be able to defeat me," the God Race Patriarch said.
"Before the battle, the Mountain Lord of Celestial Worthy Mountain thought so too. Later, he died," Ye Futian said. The God Race Patriarch's expression was extremely ugly.
"Moreover, even if you have a glimmer of hope, what about the others of the Shen clan?" Ye Futian continued.
The God Race Patriarch stared at him. He was struggling internally.
This was indeed a simple choice, but this simple choice would determine the life and death of the Shen clan.
Live on their knees, or die standing!
Or should he pretend to agree to Ye Futian? Endure the humiliation and find a chance to kill him in the future.
Ye Futian looked at him quietly. His deep eyes made the Shen clan leader feel as if none of his thoughts could escape Ye Futian's eyes. Although the person in front of him was young, whether it was his strength or his scheming, he was very frightening.
"Have you thought about it? I don't have much time, "Ye Futian continued.
The muscles on the God Race Patriarch's face twitched. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "I promise you that from now on, I will listen to your orders. But if you want the Shen clan to die, I will not do it."
"Since you have agreed, you are my subordinate. How can I let you die?" Ye Futian said. "From today on, the Shen clan belongs to Ziwei Imperial Palace. However, do not do anything for now. Everything is as usual."
"Yes," the God Race Patriarch said with his head bowed. It was as if he had already accepted his new position.
"Give me all the inheritance methods of the Shen clan. In addition, I will bring a group of the core members of the Shen clan to Ziwei Imperial Palace to cultivate," Ye Futian continued. The God Race Patriarch's face stiffened.
This b * stard.
After he compromised, he immediately asked for the foundation of the Shen clan and the cultivation methods passed down by the Shen clan. He also wanted to take the core members to Ziwei as hostages.
"The Palace Lord has already ordered a group of people to be taken away. They are still in Ziwei," the God Race Patriarch said.
"I know, but we were not fully prepared. This time, I want to see which core members are talented and can be cultivated. I will bring them to the Ziwei Segmentum to be cultivated," Ye Futian said. The God Race Patriarch gritted his teeth in hatred, but he still nodded and said, "Okay."
"Patriarch, please get ready," Ye Futian said casually.
Before he left, he needed to set up a hidden pawn in the Divine Prefecture in case of emergencies. Of course, it would be best if he did not need to use it.
But if there was an accident, this hidden pawn could be of some use.
The clan leader of the Shen clan was very cooperative. After that, Ye Futian left with his people. However, he did not bring his people back to Ziwei. Instead, he asked Blind Tie to bring his people back. Before he came, he had brought Blind Tie with him.
He himself went to the border of the 18 domains of the Divine Prefecture, the Northern Cliff Region.
The Northern Cliff Region was remote, in the north of the Divine Prefecture. But now, the Divine Prefecture army had gathered there. Countless cultivators rushed to the Northern Cliff Region.
The Devil World had invaded the Divine Prefecture from the Northern Cliff Region.
Now, the entire land of the Northern Cliff Region was covered in the flames of war.
Ye Futian went all the way to the north. On the way, he saw the army fighting. It was grand and mighty, and there were as many cultivators as there were clouds in the sky. But he did not pay attention to it. He used the Divine Feet to cross the battlefield and continued north.
Ye Futian came to a Sky River. This river was black and hid a terrible storm. It was like a Sky River floating in the sky.
This was the Black River, the boundary between the Divine Prefecture and the Devil World. Across the Black River, one could reach the gate to the Devil World.
Ye Futian did not know about this before. He only knew after learning about it.
The Devil World and the Divine Prefecture were adjacent. They were two great worlds that bordered each other!
