Chapter 2778 The Path of the Emperors?

The people in Divine Prefecture applauded with praise. Human Ancestor wanted Di Hao to marry Donghuang Diyuan. Donghuang the Great presumed that the second-mentioned was to become a live-in son-in-law. But even so, he was not worthy.

Inside Dark Court, a silhouette could be seen staring into the distance.

Rumors circulated around the Outer Realms that the Great Emperors had gone to Donghuang Imperial Palace. But the truth was, they did not. However, they were following the news as well. After hearing Donghuang the Great’s reply, Dark Sovereign commented with a smile, “Donghuang has got a spine.”

Human Ancestor’s proposal at such a sensitive period was more than just the mere appearance. He must have wished to test the waters. Nevertheless, Donghuang the Great was being uncourteous with his reply. With that, the rift between the two forces would increase significantly.

He was interested to see how everything would play out.

The remaining Great Emperors had their thoughts about this after receiving the news.

Suddenly, the situation in the Six Realms had become precarious and unpredictable. How strong would the so-called alliance be?

Ye Futian and the others discussed this topic outside Ye Imperial Palace at that time. Supreme Swordlord said, “Even though we knew that Donghuang the Great would reject the proposal, we had never expected him to answer in such an insulting manner. It looks like he offended Human Ancestor.”

“I had asked about your opinions earlier. All of you thought that Donghuang the Great would decline. Human Ancestor is not a fool. If the outcome is one that we can predict, why would he still send his people to propose marriage? I believe the real reason behind this action is more than what meets the eye.” Ye Futian frowned and continued, “Why did Human Ancestor do that?”

“For one, we cannot rule out the fact that Human Ancestor might have wanted to see Donghuang the Great’s reaction by proposing marriage or testing the water.” Supreme Swordlord went on, “Why would Human Ancestor test Donghuang the Great though?”

“Well, it’d only make sense if they were not on good terms since day one. They did it despite knowing the other party hated their guts,” Ye Futian stated. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn Noᴠelꜰire.nᴇt

“This might have something to do with the death of Emperor Ye Qing,” Supreme Swordlord added. “There were many versions of stories about Emperor Ye Qing’s death back then. The clash of the Twin Great Emperors was started by Donghuang the Great, who coveted power, authority, and the throne. So, he murdered the former and even went as far as to wipe off many of his subordinates. It was a massacre. This is why he had always been a subject of condemnation. No one in Divine Prefecture dared to mention that genocide. It eventually became taboo. 400 years had passed since then. In retrospect, Donghuang might have felt the pressure that came from Outer Realm at that time.”

“If that were the case, Human Ancestor might have wanted Emperor Ye Qing to die all along,” Ye Futian murmured as he recounted something the Dark Sovereign had mentioned before. It was logical if this turned out to be true. Human Ancestor was standing on the same side as Dark Sovereign back then. Only one of the Twin Great Emperor could remain. Hence, the merciless mass murder happened.

Nonetheless, Donghuang the Great had always carried the guilt with him all the time. Therefore, he did not kill Ye Futian but spared the latter all this while.

Things made more sense if that were the case.

However, there was still one thing that Ye Futian could not understand about Donghuang the Great. During the former’s conversation with his teacher, Qi Xuangang, the latter mentioned that people of Donghuang the Great’s caliber would always have a firm and unshakable belief. Individuals like Devil Emperor and Dark Sovereign did not hide their thoughts and beliefs. It was pretty apparent.

What about Donghuang the Great?

To understand Donghuang the Great, he would need to know what was the belief and goal of the former.

In all likelihood, Donghuang the Great’s disciples might not even know about it.

“We don’t know how this will affect the Six Realms. However, it has nothing to do with us as of now. We should go back,” Ye Futian announced. He took this news very seriously. Or else he would not have come out. Although it had nothing to do with them currently, he thought that this seemingly insignificant matter would affect the entire Six Realms’ future.

If Human Ancestor’s purpose was to test Donghuang the Great’s attitude, what would the former do after knowing the result?

It was a question that no one had to answer to at that time.

With that, all of them returned to Ye Imperial Palace and put the matter at the back of their minds. After all, it did not affect them much. The most important thing to them was to focus on their cultivation.

A month later, Old Ma rushed in to report that someone wished to see Ye Futian as he cultivated inside Ye Imperial Palace.

Standing on the ladder outside the great hall of the Imperial Palace, Ye Futian looked forward and saw a silhouette who did not use the ladder but came flying in the air. Most of the cultivators in Ye Imperial Palace were upset with that figure. However, that person exuded a powerful aura where Divine Light circled their body. They must be a top-tier cultivator.

A while later, a slender figure in green stood before Ye Futian, shooting him a sharp and condescending look. The former put an arrogant air around him and did not respect the latter.

After scrutinizing that person, Ye Futian was sure that he had seen this uninvited visitor before.

After Di Hao was injured during that war, several powerful cultivators of the Human Realm came from Heaven Beyond Heaven to God’s Ruins Continent. Those individuals were ancient beings with some of the highest cultivation levels. This visitor was one of them.

A cultivator from Human Realm came to Ye Imperial Palace. Was that the aftermath brought by the marriage proposal?

Ye Futian remained taciturn and stared at the visitor calmly. Then he emanated an unseen aura while Divine Light covered his body. After all, it was insolent to behave like that on the grounds of Ye Imperial Palace.

After their powerful auras clashed, Ye Futian noticed that the other party had become one entity with heaven and earth. The pressure he exuded was so intimidating that it was comparable to Di Hao’s.

A turquoise Divine Light circulated around Ye Futian’s body as he took a step forward. Immediately, the whole atmosphere quivered while an Authority of Heaven came pressing down from the sky. He piped up, “If you are here to look for trouble, I will not hesitate to take you down!”

After speaking, a stinging aura unleashed. The visitor immediately raised his head to stare and said, “A Divine Matrix.”

After that, he set his eyes on Ye Futian and carried on, “Not bad. However, if you wished to defeat Donghuang the Great and get your revenge, it would be empty talk without becoming a Great Emperor yourself.”

Ye Futian did not reply but glanced at him quietly.

“A Path of the Emperors has been opened now. If you are willing, you may take this Path of the Emperors,” the visitor remarked.

What Path of the Emperors?” Ye Futian asked.

What was Human Realm playing at?

“You are talented. Perhaps you have the aptitude to become a Great Emperor. But without an opportunity to walk on the Path of the Emperors, you shall never hope to reach that tier. Now, there’s a chance before your very eyes. Whether to grab it or not all depends on your choice,” the visitor went on. “Ye Futian, will you follow me back to Human Realm and be a disciple of Human Ancestor?”

“Huh?” Ye Futian’s pupils shrunk when he heard that. The expressions of Ye Imperial Palace’s cultivators turned grim as they glared at the man who hovered before the ladder.

This man wanted Ye Futian to go to Human Realm and be a disciple of Human Ancestor?

Things went just as they had expected. The repercussions following the marriage proposal had begun to take place. The Human Realm had already started to plot against the Divine Prefecture.
