The Ancient Heavenly Emperor nodded, but Ye Qinghan was shocked. Even if he wanted to break the heavens, he would never have thought that the Ancient Heavenly Emperor would be his backup.
"Back then, I didn't dare to tell you. You were young, and your battle prowess was mediocre. That's why I made things difficult for you on the surface and helped you in the dark. I knew that you would come to the Ancient Emperor Academy, and I also knew that you would be rejected by Ouyang Huo. I also acquiesced, but I didn't want you to join the Ancient Emperor Academy, so I purposely gave you the Flame Ancestor's arm in the hopes that your battle prowess would be enough to scare the big shots."
Ye Qinghan was confused, and he looked at the Ancient Heavenly Emperor in shock.
"Then … why do you want the Flame Ancestor's heart? You're a divine general's successor, so why are you helping the Flame Clan? "Ye Qinghan asked.
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky. He took a deep breath, and an ancient aura spread out.
"Back then, my father participated in the war between Class One Hall and the Flame Clan because he had no choice. The ancient families were expelled from the Ancient Immortal World, and their patriarchs were killed. My father had no choice but to participate in the war. He attacked a tribe of the Flame Clan several times and often fought with a princess of the tribe. The other party knew that my father didn't want to fight, so they dragged it out for a long time to buy time for their people. That princess … is the younger sister of the Flame Clan's number one emperor, and she … is my mother! In other words, the number one emperor in the world is my belief, and he's also my uncle. Do you think I can't refine the Flame Ancestor's heart and right arm? "The Ancient Heavenly Emperor looked straight at Ye Qinghan and asked coldly.
Ye Qinghan's hair stood on end. So there was such a piece of information in the ancient secret history. If the Ancient Heavenly Emperor hadn't said it himself, who would have believed it?
"Back then, when my mother gave birth to me, she chose to commit suicide in order to protect my identity. My father knew that he had no other choice, so he handed me over to the Divine Will Master God. The Divine Will Master God handed me over to an old man, and the old man took me and the Divine Will Master God's daughter to escape. He joined the battle with the Divine Will Master God with the determination to die, and hoped that Class One Hall wouldn't bring us back to continue fighting."
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor sank into his memories, and the scenes from back then appeared in his mind.
Before he died, he told my uncle about my whereabouts. Even though my uncle was unwilling to kill him, he insisted on dying and chose to accompany my mother. My uncle personally sent him off. Later, my uncle found me when I was eight years old and told me the truth. He told me to set up a backup plan for the Yan Clan, take revenge for my parents, and fight for a chance at survival for the Yan Clan. "
Ye Qinghan understood that the Ancient Heavenly Emperor was the Flaming Emperor's trump card!
His words were imprinted on my soul. Later on, I married a Divine Will Inheritance and gave birth to Jiutian. Then, I stole her foundation. Jiutian hated me to the core. I had no other choice. She also knew the result. She didn't refuse. Everything was for the sake of survival. That's why after countless years, even though I became the Emperor of All Ages, I endured it! However, ten thousand years later, it will be the decisive battle. There's no need for me to hide it anymore. "
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor's eyes were filled with a cold glint.
Ye Qinghan frowned and asked, "What about the Divine Will Inheritance?"
"She was killed by my uncle. She joined forces with my father and couldn't defeat my uncle. However, she managed to severely injure my uncle's foundation. Otherwise, when the Yin Emperor led his five million army to fight against my uncle's three million army, it would be hard to say who would die. Do you think he's called the Number One Emperor in the World for nothing? If he ascends to the top and becomes the Emperor, what Taigu Emperor? They're all ants! "The Ancient Heavenly Emperor's blood boiled. It was a perverted belief and persistence.
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor was an absolute actor. He had kept Class One Hall in the dark for countless years. Even now, no one suspected that he had anything to do with the Yan Clan. However, he was a die-hard fan of the Flaming Emperor.
Ye Qinghan was getting more and more confused. Since the Flaming Emperor had restrained so many people from the Taigu Emperor, why was the Flame Ancestor's corpse dismembered?
"Then why was the Flame Ancestor defeated when he joined forces with Lord Liang Emperor?" Ye Qinghan asked curiously.
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor shook his head and said in a low voice, "After my uncle came to find me, he went to Crying Ghost Ridge to fight the Yin Emperor. That battle was also his final battle. He damaged 30% of his foundation. It's understandable that he died at the hands of the Yin Emperor. I … I once entered Crying Ghost Ridge and saw my uncle's corpse …"
At this point, the Ancient Heavenly Emperor's eyes shone brightly. His eyes flashed with the imposing aura of the Iron Bone Body that stood proudly even in death. He held back the feeling in his heart.
"Since then, my uncle never replied to me. Therefore, no one knows why the Flame Ancestor and the Liang Emperor were defeated. However, based on my guess, Class One Hall must have a big backup plan. Therefore, after I confess to you today, you must not be presumptuous and tell anyone. I still have to play a key role. If I can attack Chu Jun or severely injure the backup plan of Class One Hall, then we still have hope of victory," the Ancient Heavenly Emperor said in a deep voice.
Whoosh!
Hiss!
Ye Qinghan took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He bowed and said, "Dean, I'm sorry. I got the heart. However, I didn't know about it and let Yan Ao refine it."
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor's eyes flashed. He then shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Forget it. Yan Ao is the backup plan of the Flame Ancestor. It's fate that he got the Flame Ancestor's heart."
Ye Qinghan immediately relaxed. He was afraid that the Ancient Heavenly Emperor wouldn't let go of the Flame Ancestor's heart.
"The heart … I suspect that it was given to me by the higher-ups of Class One Hall. That person gave me the heart and told me about Chu Xu's fatal weakness. He even mobilized the patrols and gave me a chance to save the Ancient Heavenly Emperor's son, Jing Tianjue." Ye Qinghan frowned and voiced his doubts. The Ancient Heavenly Emperor might know something.
The Ancient Heavenly Emperor was stunned. He shook his head and said in a low voice, "Back then, each of us left a backup plan. No one knows who the backup plan is. Just like how the Flame Ancestor didn't know about the backup plan left by my uncle, my uncle didn't have the time to ask about it. Therefore, it's not strange for Class One Hall to have the Flame Ancestor as a backup plan. However, you can't believe it completely.
Don't tell him anything. "Ye Qinghan immediately nodded. This matter was more than shocking. No matter how strong the Immemorial Yin Yang Immortal Emperor and the Crown Prince were, they couldn't have expected the Ancient Heavenly Emperor to be a variable!
"Go back and pretend that you never saw me. When we meet again in the future, we'll still be partners. Moreover, it's a partnership that can break at any time. Give the Crown Prince some hope. He'll try to rope me in." The Ancient Heavenly Emperor's eyes flashed fiercely.
Ye Qinghan bowed slightly and slowly retreated. The dark clouds in the sky dispersed.
The power of the Anti-Order Dharma and Logos shrouded the sky, preventing anyone from spying on them. Furthermore, given the Ancient Celestial Emperor's cultivation, no one would be able to eavesdrop on their conversation. However, Ye Qinghan remained vigilant.
Whoosh — — —
Whoosh!
Ye Qinghan felt unprecedentedly relaxed. He was afraid that he wouldn't have any helpers. Now that the backup plan of the Flame Ancestor had surfaced, even if there was only one, he could relax. At least he wouldn't be fighting alone.
(Regarding the question and answer on the WeChat public account yesterday, it was a question about who the backup plan of Class One Hall and the Flame Ancestor were. Some people answered Class One Hall's question correctly, while others answered the Flame Ancestor's question correctly. However, only one or two people answered both of the backup plans correctly. Therefore, only two people received rewards. If there are others who answered correctly but I didn't see them, you can send me your answers via QQ. I'll make up for it.)
