"Sure."
After obtaining Ye Ji's guarantee, Gu Tian spoke of everything that happened back then in full detail.
So …
Countless years ago.
Gu Tian and Ye Ji's father were sworn brothers. After many years of hard work, they finally broke through to the Starry Sky Undying Realm and reached a very high level.
The two of them worked together and roamed the starry sky.
However, there was one time when the two of them got news about the primal chaos tablet and successfully obtained one of the primal chaos tablets.
Unfortunately, they were besieged by dozens of Starry Sky Undying Realm experts.
At that time, Ye Ji's father was heavily injured. Gu Tian was furious and destroyed thousands of starry sky realms and killed two Starry Sky Undying Realm experts.
Unfortunately, they were outnumbered and couldn't resist the joint attack of dozens of Starry Sky Undying Realm experts.
They lived and died together.
They didn't leave.
Unfortunately, Ye Ji's mother was already pregnant. If they didn't choose to leave in time, the consequences would be obvious.
Ye Ji's father was heavily injured and couldn't leave.
Helpless, Gu Tian could only take Ye Ji's mother and leave, leaving Ye Ji's father alone to resist the dozens of Starry Sky Undying Realm experts.
It could be considered as giving them time to leave.
Ye Ji's mother died after giving birth to him.
After hearing this, Long Ao went silent. Ye Ji went silent as well.
Could Gu Tian be blamed for this?
Not only could Ye Ji not blame Gu Tian, he even had to thank him. If Gu Tian hadn't risked his life to save him, Ye Ji would've died back then. Would he still be standing here?
Gu Tian sighed deeply and said, "Your father is my good brother. We shouldn't have been greedy and tried to seize the primal chaos tablet. In the end, one of us died and the other was injured."
Ye Ji wasn't the only one who knew that Gu Tian was injured. Even Long Ao knew about this.
"Gu Tian, how do I know if you're telling the truth?"
"You don't have to believe me, and I don't need you to believe me either. I do things with a clear conscience. Your father is my benefactor, and he is also my good brother. Do you really think that I would abandon him and choose to leave alone?"
Long Ao's intuition told him that Gu Tian was telling the truth.
Actually, Ye Ji believed it too.
"Uncle Gu, I've wronged you."
He sighed deeply again.
"It's good that you understand."
"Uncle Gu, I want to ask, who were the people that besieged you?"
Taking revenge for his father was a matter of course.
Gu Tian knew that once he said this, Ye Ji would definitely choose to take revenge.
"Ye Ji, your parents are already dead. You are the only member of the Starry Sky Qilin Clan, so nothing can happen to you. Otherwise, how am I going to answer to your dead parents?"
"Uncle Gu, I just want to know. But don't worry, I won't act recklessly before I break through to the Starry Sky Immortal realm."
"No."
Before Ye Ji could speak, Gu Tian continued, "Not to mention now, even if your cultivation had smoothly broken through to the Starry Sky Immortal Realm, it would still be impossible for you to take revenge. If it was possible, then why would I wait until now?"
Dozens of space undyings, how could they take revenge?
Unless the twelve Rulers of the Starry Sky came in person, or if they used absolute numbers to suppress them.
"Big Brother Ye, listen to Senior Gu. Wait until you break through to the Starry Sky Immortal realm. Even if you know now, it won't be of any use. It might even interfere with your cultivation."
Ye Ji also knew what the two of them meant. In the end, he could only nod and say, "Long Ao, didn't you say that you have a way to increase my strength?"
"Yes, but not now."
"How long do we have to wait?"
"I don't know."
This was the truth.
Ye Ji's expression instantly became unsightly, but he endured it.
The two of them had buried the hatchet. Long Ao finally let out a sigh of relief.
He naturally didn't want to see the two of them fight, because once they did, it wouldn't be a problem for the empire. In that case, the empire should be safe for the next hundred years.
After settling the matter of the empire, Long Ao didn't linger. He immediately got up and left.
The Martial Heaven Continent.
As soon as Long Ao entered, the God-Diviner sensed him.
In the outer sea, in the crystal palace.
"Long Ao, why did you come back for no reason?"
Long Ao went straight to the point. Even if the God-Diviner really was his enemy, he wouldn't hesitate.
"Senior God-Diviner, I came back this time mainly to relocate my family. To tell you the truth, I've already established my own empire and have been separated for many years."
He did not continue speaking, but the meaning of Long Ao's words was clear.
The God-Diviner wasn't as angry as he had imagined. Instead, he smiled. "I understand what you mean. There's no problem at all. However, Long Ao, you have to be careful. Don't think that just because the Soaring Dragon Empire has a Starry Sky Immortal overseeing it, you can rest easy."
He wasn't surprised at all. Long Ao had already heard of the God-Diviner's Dao of Divination. After refining the Divination Primal Chaos Tablet, the God-Diviner could calculate almost anything. Thus, the matter of the two of them overseeing the Soaring Dragon Empire definitely wouldn't be hidden from him.
"Senior, please tell me."
"I trust you already know about Gu Tian. I won't hide it from you. Gu Tian and Ye Ji's enemies aren't ordinary people, but dozens of Starry Sky Immortals from the nine great cosmic empires. Do you think your Soaring Dragon Empire will be safe if this matter is leaked?"
Long Ao's face instantly turned solemn. Of course, he knew what the Nine Great Starry Sky Empire meant.
In the vast starry sky, there were countless planes and empires.
Among the countless Starry Sky Empires, the nine Starry Sky Empires were the most powerful. They were the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth Starry Sky Empires.
Dozens of Starry Sky Immortals from the nine great cosmic empires teamed up to kill Gu Tian and Ye Ji. If this matter was leaked out, Gu Tian would definitely be besieged. Even Long Ao and the Soaring Dragon Empire would suffer.
However, Long Ao already knew about this matter. Previously, Gu Tian had already said that if he insisted on doing so, they would live and die together. If not for this, Gu Tian and Ye Ji would not have followed him to the Soaring Dragon Empire.
"Senior, I have already agreed to live and die with Gu Tian."
The God-Diviner wasn't surprised at all. He nodded and said, "I understand your character. You have to be careful. Although your talent is not bad and you will definitely become a Starry Sky Immortal in the future, the nine great cosmic empires aren't as simple as you think. It's best if the nine great cosmic empires don't find out about this. Remember, if you run into trouble in the future, you can bring your family back."
