The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2568: Imperial Arms;Vanquish Ziwei

“Impressive!”

In the dead silence inside the City Lord’s Office, no one dared to say anything. The first one to comment was the Dark Saint, Hua Yunting.

Hua Yunting looked at the two men in the void, smiled, and said, “Renhuang in the Ninth-Realm, able to make Sub-divine elixirs and slay the cultivators of Tribulation Plane, now defeating the heir of Tianyan City with a single strike. In the land of the Divine Prefecture, could there be another?”

Who should be the one named “Unraveled?”

Clearly, Wang Xiao was not the one.

The City Lord of Tianyan wanted to create momentum for Wang Xiao’s ascend and make him famous worldwide. With Wang Xiao’s talents in armoring and cultivation, he did do exactly just that. He achieved fame in a day, and from this day hence, no one in the Divine Prefecture would not know of the name of Wang Xiao.

Obviously, if Ye Futian had never come, this would undoubtedly be the perfect campaign. Tianyan City would have created a mythical figure.

However, things in the world were often curious and unpredictable. On this day, Ye Futian appeared, and Tianyan City intended to use him as a stepping stone for Wang Xiao. In the end, although Wang Xiao’s name would be known throughout the world after today, the world would always think of him as more than just the champion of the Armor Competition or the heir of Tianyan the Great.

On this day, these two brilliant talents battled on top of Tianyan City. The successor of Tianyan the Great, Wang Xiao, as outstanding as he was, was defeated by Ye Futian with a single strike Ye Futian, using Wang Xiao, proved to the people of the Divine Prefecture that he was the one and only Unraveled existence.

Ye Futian, the Palace Lord of Ziwei Imperial Palace, the heir of Ziwei the Great, Shenyin the Great, and Emperor Ye Qing. He was the number one genius talent in the Void World. Who else could ravel his supremacy in all of the Divine Prefecture,?

The top principalities of the Divine Prefecture aside, even the Ancient God Clan, who among them could compare?

Wang Xiao was such an example.

It could be said that Wang Xiao wanted to use Ye Futian to achieve his own fame, but in the end, it was exactly the opposite. Through him, Ye Futian proved himself once again to the world.

“Looking back at Donghuang the Great and Emperor Ye Qing, these two outstanding figures seemed to have foreshadowed Princess Donghuang and the heir of Emperor Ye Qing here today, whose presence echoed the two emperors back then.” Hua Yunting continued to speak, but his words were frowned upon by many cultivators.

Likewise, Ye Futian raised his eyebrow slightly. Hua Yunting mentioned Donghuang the Great and Emperor Ye Qing in the same sentence. It was obvious he was deliberately provoking his audience.

Although everyone knew this, it sounded different when they said it out loud.

Ye Futian had proved himself as the Unraveled, stepping on Wang Xiao, and stole his thunder in every way. But Hua Yunting mentioned that he was the heir of Emperor Ye Qing now like this could only mean that the person corresponding to him was Princess Donghuang.

His motive was suspect!

However, from the standpoint of Hua Yunting, this was totally within expectation. Ye Futian had displayed such enchanting talent, and it was natural that he hoped Ye Futian would be the sworn enemy of the Divine Prefecture, and he wouldn’t mind adding more fuel to that fire. Perhaps this was the only way for Ye Futian to work together with them.

Sure enough, next to the City Lord of Tianyan, the beautiful Princess Donghuang looked at Ye Futian as well. Next to her, Du You’s eyes were as sharp as a spear when he said coldly, “He is not worthy!”

Hua Yunting actually proposed to link Ye Futian with Princess Donghuang.

Clearly, Du You would not agree to that.

In the land of the Divine Prefecture, no one was worthy of Princess Donghuang.

“Ye Futian, have you already sided with the Dark Court and colluded with them?” the clan leader of the Shen Clan spoke loudly as if fanning the fire. Everything that happened today was taken in by Ye Futian, and the grievances between Ye Futian and the Shen Clan couldn’t be more clear to him.

In the future, when Ye Futian managed to prove the supremacy of the Great Path, the Shen Clan would undoubtedly follow in the footsteps of the Holy Land of Taichu.

Now, they must do all they could to get rid of Ye Futian.

“Ye Futian first sneaked into the City Lord’s Office so that the cultivators from the Dark Court and the Empty Divine Realm could follow on his heel, working perfectly together inside and out. Now, look what a great job he did in representing the Dark World to challenge the cultivators of the Divine Prefecture,” Chief Xihai of the West Sea Domain declared loudly.

They seemed to zoom in on Ye Futian directly, declared that this heir of Emperor Ye Qing had already taken the side of the Dark Court and the Empty Divine Realm, and joined forces with these two major worlds to stand against the Divine Prefecture.

“I heard that some cultivators from the Dark World had visited Ziwei Segmentum before, and Ye Futian had personally received them,” Ning Yuan, the Chief of the Donghua Domain, said. They all wanted to put Ye Futian in a compromising position.

All these voices were heard by Ye Futian, and his heart was cold, as it was filled with murderous intent.

All these forces wanted to get rid of him and charge him with some unfounded or imagined crimes. They wanted to say that he was colluding with the Dark Court and Empty Divine Mountain and declaring war with all of the Divine Prefecture.

Although he did have the idea of exploiting the balance between these two major worlds and the Divine Prefecture, using it as an opportunity to buy himself some time to grow and develop his power quietly, he had never had the thoughts of joining them. Especially the Dark World. He and the Dark World had equally deep grievances. How could he possibly join them?

But it did not matter whether it was true or not. The key was how would the Imperial Palace and the Divine Prefecture perceived the matter.

The feast at Tianyan City today, in itself, had a purpose behind it. It was for Tianyan City to lead the powers of the Divine Prefecture to destroy Ziwei Segmentum.

He was now the true public enemy of the Divine Prefecture.

Hua Yunting looked on with a smile, not saying anything. It was as if this was exactly what he wished to see. As long as Ye Futian was forced into a desperate situation, he could side with them and fight against the Divine Prefecture together.

At this moment, everyone felt an unparalleled pressure of might that permeated the City Lord’s Office, shrouding the entire Tianyan city.

This was the Imperial Might!

For a time, the cultivators inside the City Lord’s Office quieted down, and traces of divine light fell directly upon Wang Xiao. A phantom of a deity appeared behind him, and Ye Futian frowned slightly. Wang Xiao faced the spear that was pointed at him and took a step.

Boom…

An overwhelming pressure of Might swept out as Ye Futian was knocked backward. Wang Xiao’s eyes became terrifying, and his body was bathed in a sacred and incomparable radiance; it was as if he was possessed by the gods.

“Tianyan the Great.”

Ye Futian put down the long spear in his hand as he glanced at Wang Xiao. Clearly, this was not Wang Xiao’s power; he was unable to do something like this just yet.

The City Lord of Tianyan had said that Wang Xiao was the heir of Tianyan the Great and could communicate with the imperial arms. Although he had inherited the will of several Great Emperors, he was not clear as to what form the ancient Great Emperors of the Ancient God Clan existed.

But one thing was certain. The Ancient God Clan was able to pass down from generation to generation and was known to possess the power of the gods. Then, it was definitely not just as simple as a wisp of the will of the emperor; it might be similar to the Ziwei Segmentum.

Therefore, when Wang Xiao was standing inside this City Lord’s Office, he seemed to have transformed with just a thought; it was as if he had awakened the Great Emperor.

A horrible pressure of Might fell on Ye Futian as Wang Xiao’s eyes were glued on him. Everyone was silent for a while. Some cultivators from the Divine Prefecture who were enemies with Ye Futian even hoped that Wang Xiao would chop Ye Futian into pieces. Even if that was a violation of what was promised, it had nothing to do with them.

Ye Futian raised his head and glanced towards Wang Xiao. He was frowning slightly, his body surrounded by the divine light of the Great Path.

“You’ve already been defeated. There’s no need to act this, right? Or does the City Lord’s Office lack sportsmanship, and the Divine Prefecture too proud to admit defeat?” A cold voice spoke. Accompanied with this voice was an even a strong pressure of Might. Faintly, it tended to oppose the emperor’s might.

Many look at the person who spoke, and it was the Evil Sage, Mo Qingge, who rarely said anything.

Wang Xiao was still staring at Ye Futian but did not make a move. Ye Futian glanced at him indifferently. His figure appeared high above the sky as he moved about at will. That pressure of Might didn’t seem to be able to constrain him at all.

“I can defeat Wang Xiao today, and I can defeat all the powers of the Divine Prefecture in another day,” Ye Futian shouted. “Whoever wants to act against Ziwei, the Holy Land of Taichu is your warning.”

As soon as his voice faded, Ye Futian’s figure disappeared right from where he was, leaving this place of strife behind, without a trace.

But his voice resounded throughout the entire Tianyan City, lingering endlessly.

If he could defeat Wang Xiao today, he could defeat all the powers of the Divine Prefecture in the future. It was an incredibly arrogant claim, but it was the truth.

He was only in the Ninth-Realm. If he ever survived the first Divine Tribulation, how strong would his combat power be?

If he ever survived the second divine tribulation, who could compete with him in the land of the Divine Prefecture?

“If you collude with the Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm, I will kill you for sure.” In the City Lord’s Office, a voice pierced through heaven and earth, extremely sharp, and it was the voice of the Spear Emperor, Du You. This voice was highly penetrating and reverberated between heaven and earth, issuing a warning to Ye Futian.

“You can’t do it either!” In the void, a response came; it was Ye Futian’s voice.

Wang Xiao couldn’t.

And in his opinion, a direct disciple of Donghuang the Great, the Spear Emperor, Du You, couldn’t either!

When the voice faded, there was completely no sign of life after that. Mo Qingge and Hua Yunting smiled when they saw this and said, “Today, we have witnessed a feat that was well worth the trip. We will be on our way now.”

Once that was said, the cultivators from the two worlds withdrew and did not continue to battle.

In the City Lord’s Office, only the cultivators of the Divine Prefecture remained.

Wang Xiao continued to remain high in the sky. It was as if he still hadn’t fully recovered from the battle.

At this time, in space below, the clan leader of the Shen Clan and the master of the Sun God Mountain each took out a communication treasure at the same time. Then, all of a sudden, both of them stood up, and their face wore a look of great shock.

Boom… A horrific aura spread from them as they raised their heads and shouted into the sky above, “Ye Futian!”

However, no one responded.

“Ye Futian dispatched the cultivators from Ziwei Segmentum to ambush the Shen Clan.”

“And the Sun God Mountain.”

The news from both of these men caused everyone’s hearts to skip a beat. Ye Futian had taken action way faster than they had imagined, which meant that Ye Futian must have already set everything up before coming here. Once they expressed their intent to attack Ziwei Segmentum, he took action immediately.

The City Lord of Tianyan looked at the two men, then raised his head and shouted, “Wang Xiao.”

Wang Xiao bowed his head to look at the City Lord of Tianyan.

“Today’s battle was not a battle to be ashamed of. You are the heir of the Great Emperor, the most outstanding figure of our family. This defeat will not stain your reputation; it was just a fight,” the City Lord of Tianyan said loudly. He continued, “What’s more, you haven’t exerted all of your strength in this battle; otherwise, Ye Futian will undoubtedly die.”

“Wang Xiao, you are the only person in Tianyan City who can communicate with the imperial arms. Even if you were defeated, you are still The Raveled, as under the Great Emperor, none could ravel your presence. Now, take the imperial arms and raze Ziwei, slay Ye Futian, to redeem yourself of this defeat!”

His voice resounded throughout the entire Tianyan City, making everyone’s hearts beat violently.

What a decisive and ruthless City Lord of Tianyan!
