Everyone looked at Ye Futian with some envy. The Palace Lord was the Palace Lord for a reason. This woman was unusual, and her appearance was second to none. It seemed that the Palace Lord might be having a new addition in his household.

Ye Futian would not know anything these guys were thinking. He looked at the woman in white, thought for a moment, and said, “You descended from the Great Emperor and were born from the small world. Let’s call you Ling Long (1]!”

“Ling Long,” the woman in white muttered, then nodded slightly to acknowledge it. She did not have any opposing opinion, feeling that the name Ye Futian gave her was very comforting,

Ye Futian’s words explained the origin of the woman in white, which greatly startled everyone around him. She was descended from the Great Emperor and was nurtured and born in the small world?

If so, this woman indeed had an extraordinary origin.

“Don’t gather around here, go cultivate,” Ye Futian said to everyone, then walked forward and towards the palace that was at the highest point.

Ye Futian came to the cultivation area behind the palace, where Hua Jieyu was cultivating. When she saw that Ye Futian was back, she stood up as Ye Futian came to her side. He touched her long hair and asked, “How do you feel? ”

“T feel that my cultivation has reached a bottleneck,” Hua Jieyu said with a smile. The bottleneck she spoke of was the realm of near-deity, which she could not advance for a long time.

“There is no hurry. Rest for a while and get yourself balanced,” Ye Futian said. Hua Jieyu nodded, and at this moment, she tured her attention toward the woman in white, who was behind Ye Futian. She saw Ling Long standing quietly behind Ye Futian, whose beautiful eyes fell on Hua Jieyu as if to assess

her.

Seeing this, Hua Jieyu had a strange look on her face, but then she looked at Ye Futian with a smile.

“Uh…” Ye Futian also felt a little awkward. This image was accurate. “Beautiful.

“Ling Long, the name I just gave her, is someone I met in the relic of the Gods. She’s a descendant of the Great Emperor, born out of the supreme will and have merged with my will to a certain degree, so I brought her back here,” Ye Futian explained.

When Hua Jieyu heard Ye Futian’s words, she looked at Ling Long with great interest. She was born out of the Great Emperor’s will?

“Who is she?” Ling Long looked at Hua Jieyu as well and asked Ye Futian.

“Ye Futian didn’t know quite how to answer her. But Hua Jieyu couldn’t help but smile and reply, “My name is Hua Jieyu, and I am his wife.”

“Wife?” Ling Long didn’t seem to have a good grasp on this concept. Ye Futian explained, “That means we are together.”

Ye Futian felt a headache coming on. It seemed that he had to do some “brainwashing” on Ling Long.

“Don’t resist,” Ye Futian said. Then the divine light dazzled upon his body, as strands of golden divine light surrounded Ling Long’s body and entered through her brow chakra. Suddenly, countless information began to pour into Ling Long’s mind, so Ling Long closed her eyes and began receiving them

quietly.

After a long while, Ye Futian stopped and saw that Ling Long’s eyes were still closed. He took Hua Jieyu’s hand and led her towards the sleeping quarters.

As soon as the door to the backyard was opened, Ye Futian felt something behind him. He turned around and saw Ling Long was following behind him.

Ye Futian looked at her and blinked, asking her, “What are you doing here?”

“Tm following you. I’ll be wherever you’ll be,” Ling Long repeated what Ye Futian said earlier.

Ye Futian rubbed between his brows and said, “Just go sit there and digest the memories I gave you earlier, and don’t disturb me without my order.”

There was some puzzlement in Ling Long’s eyes. Why did he change what he said?

But still, she obeyed Ye Futian’s command and sat down quietly, acting obediently.

Next to him, Hua Jieyu watched all this with a brilliant smile. The woman that Ye Futian brought back was behaving much like a child.

Ye Imperial Palace was extremely quiet, and everyone was busy cultivating to improve their strengths.

Ye Futian had been guarding Ling Long ever since he brought her back. After all, Ling Long’s strength was too powerful. If there were an accident, her destructive power would be equally terrifying.

Over the past few days, he had been transmitting all kinds of memories to Ling Long and helping her to acclimate to this world. He had passed the situation of the entire cultivation world into her memory, and Ling Long was digesting them quickly. Her mind had been opened, and she was now an actual

living being in all sense of the words. Her cultivation was powerful, and her ability to lean was astounding, She was getting to know the world at an extremely rapid speed.

In addition, Ye Futian would also practice sparring with Ling Long.

At this time, in the cultivation court located at the very top of Ye Imperial Palace, a terrifying divine matrix lit up. There were terrifying and violent sounds that could be made out vaguely. Even a monstrous fighting will pressed down and broke through the defense of the divine matrix, shrouding the

entire Ye Imperial Palace. What was more astonishing to those around it was that this will neither belong to Ye Futian nor Hua Jieyu.

Then, it could only be from the woman in white who was brought back by Ye Futian.

Was she fighting the Palace Lord?

Was it a real fight or just a sparring session?

In the cultivation court, the dull and muffled banging sounds rang out continuously, like thunderous explosions. Hua Jieyu stood on one side as her beautiful eyes looked at the two figures in front of her. Ye Futian and Ling Long were in a head-to-head confrontation, and neither evaded the other in the

slightest. They directly attacked each other, and their exchanges were extreme. Ye Futian was overwhelmed and submerged by a supremely horrific fighting will. He felt as if he was facing a god from heaven who was invincible. The oppression of his spiritual will was incredibly frightening.

Bang! With a loud boom, Ye Futian was knocked out into flying, After he landed, he slid backward and only managed to stop himself after a few moments. He stared straight ahead and let out a long breath. He said with a smile,” Awesome.”

“Thaven’t used my full power yet,” Ling Long said as she looked at Ye Futian without even a little bit of courtesy.

Ye Futian was taken aback by surprise and said to her, “Did no one tell you the virtue of humility during your studies these days?”

“Mmm,” Ling Long nodded and replied, “But for you, it was not necessary.”

“That’s harsh,” Ye Futian said.

“Shall we continue?” Ling Long said lightly, her eyes falling on Ye Futian.

“Rest,” Ye Futian said, then stepped forward as he came to Ling Long’s side. “You must have already digested everything that was passed on to you and learned from it; you must understand the world a little better now.”

“Mmm,” Ling Long nodded.

“Next, I want to tell you where you come from and why you are following me,” Ye Futian said.

Hearing his words, Ling Long had a strange look on her face as she said, “You can choose not to tell me.”

After learning quite a bit on her own, she guessed that she might have been under the control of Ye Futian, hence her being here. Therefore, she didn’t feel the pressing need to know the truth.

“No, you have already developed your unique personality, and you have the right to know everything,” Ye Futian said, “Don’t resist.”

As he spoke, the light between his brow chakra began to shine, and suddenly images of many memories converged and entered between Ling Long’s eyebrows. These were precisely the memories of what he had gone through in the Forbidden Zone of the Gods, except for some of the things that happened

between him and Donghuang Diyuan. Everything about Ling Long was in those memories.

Ling Long closed her eyes, and it didn’t take long for her to open her eyes again; her beautiful eyes fastened on Ye Futian.

“Did you see everything?” Ye Futian asked.

“Mmm,” Ling Long nodded.

“Ididn’t have any choice before, or else you might have killed me in the Forbidden Zone. In any case, it is indeed my will that was integrated into the will of the Great Emperor so that you have a part of my will, and you were affected by me. But now that you have an independent self-awareness, I will not

hide it from you,” Ye Futian said. “Now, you will have to choose your path and give yourself a name.”

Ling Long looked at Ye Futian, then looked up at the divine matrix in the void, and said, “If what I want to do is not in line with your will, will you use the divine matrix to get rid of me?”

“If [had that kind of thoughts, I wouldn’t have allowed you to lear any of this. I brought you here to prevent you from being out of control. After all, your strength is far too strong, and the threat is too great. Even now, if you want to do something to me here, I will have no choice but to activate the

divine matrix to deal with you,” Ye Futian continued, “But you can leave. And whatever you want to do in the future is your choice.”

“Hypocrite,” Ling Long said as she stared at Ye Futian.

“Huh?” Ye Futian was stunned. Who was she calling a hypocrite?

He thought he was being honest. At first, he did want to control Ling Long, but then he discovered that Ling Long was not a puppet but a real individual. She would lean by herself, and sooner or later, she would understand everything.

“You know my being contains part of your will, which means that I, standing here now, have part of your personality. And yet you pretended to ask me to leave. What is that if not hypocrisy?” Ling Long looked at Ye Futian and questioned him pointedly.

Ye Futian was stupefied for a moment. He looked at the woman and thought her learning ability was just a little too astounding.

Ling Long looked at Ye Futian calmly and continued, “Ling Long sounds like a good name. I think I’ll use it for now!”

[1] Ling Long also has the meaning of being delicate and well-formed.
