Chapter 2872: I’ve Waited Long for You

“What is the meaning of this?” Ye Futian furrowed his brows in annoyance. Yu Sheng had already ordered them to retreat, but the cultivators of the Devil Imperial Palace still would not let them pass.

It seemed they must have received orders from the Devil Emperor.

Even more, it had to be extremely stern orders. Otherwise, they would not be behaving so.

Just that, why would do the Devil Emperor do so?

Was it to prevent him from entering Donghuang Imperial Palace to ensure his safety?

“Move aside!” Ye Futian raised his voice as he barged his way forward. Divine power moved around him, and his mood seemed to be souring. This was his matter, not Devil Imperial Palace’s business to meddle in. Even after he and Yu Sheng had clearly expressed their viewpoints, they still would not let him through. He felt they had gone overboard.

Devilish power flowed from the cultivators of the Devil Imperial Palace, and they remained where they were. Yu Sheng’s expression darkened. A mighty devilish power surged from his body, and he made a rapid dash forward. The sky shook as he barked, “Make way!”

“The Devil Emperor has made an order that we are not allowed to let Ye Futian enter Donghuang Imperial Palace. Yu Sheng, you have to follow orders and stop him from going to Donghuang Imperial Palace. This is to protect both of you,” a Great Emperor figure explained to Yu Sheng.

Boom! A ferocious aura emanated from Ye Futian. He suddenly rushed forward, and with a raise of his fist, countless beams of light came forth and clouded the entire sky. This one casual fist alone contained an immense amount of power. Each attack from his fist contained the divine powers of the world that formed by the accumulation of innumerable particles from the world. It was earth-shattering in its intensity.

The cultivators of the Devil Imperial Palace grew pale. When the attack swept past, their defense formation immediately collapsed as many cultivators were tossed out. They all spat out blood from their mouths. Even those on the Emperor-level could not handle this blow.

Buzz! Ye Futian moved his will, and divine light surrounded the sky at once. Unlimited divine swords of destruction were formed, and they pointed toward the cultivators of the Devil Imperial Palace. At the same time, he continued moving forward while coldly stating, “If anyone blocks my way, don’t blame me for not showing any mercy.”

Then, he went directly straight through the crowd. The cultivators had a menacing look on their faces, but the divine swords circling them significantly deterred them. Ye Futian was much more powerful than them, and no one could stop him. They could only watch Ye Futian pass through.

Yu Sheng followed him while he swept his gaze upon the cultivators standing on both sides of them. His eyes were cold. Why would the Devil Emperor hand down such orders?

But now was not the time to think about that already.

They continued moving forward at a rapid pace. Before long, they had arrived outside Donghuang Imperial Palace.

The palace was vast and stood tall and mighty. Lifting one’s eyes, one could see a heavenly door guarded by statues of legendary beasts like the divine dragon, the ancestral phoenix, the qilin, and the black tortoise. There were multitudes of cultivators around the place. Not long ago, they had gone through a huge battle and had been cast out. Although the enemy’s withdrawal was due to the war of the Six Great Emperors having no conclusion, they were still considered to have blocked the enemy’s strong attacks.

And now, at this very moment, Ye Futian stood outside the Imperial Palace.

The cultivators of the Divine Prefecture were very acquainted with Ye Futian. Of the 18 domains in the Divine Prefecture, quite a few had previously interacted with Ye Futian. Currently, they were all present.

When the five great forces, including the Human Realm, had invaded the Divine Prefecture, the chief manors of the eighteen domains had all gathered at Donghuang Imperial Palace. Naturally, they would be here.

Many were old acquaintances of Ye Futian, who held a deep resentment against him. Seeing Ye Futian standing there now filled them with emotions.

He was previously a nobody in their eyes and was someone they thought they could use as they pleased. Now, as he stood there, they could only look up at him. He had already surpassed them by miles and miles.

Even the direct disciple of Donghuang the Great, Du You, suffered the same fate despite having managed to enter the demigod plane after the many changes in the world. This would have been a great achievement in the past, and he would be one of the top contenders. However, he did not even have the qualification to speak with Ye Futian.

Silver-haired and the pride of heaven, Ye Futian’s white clothes swayed in the wind as he stood there.

The day had arrived. He was finally at Donghuang Imperial Palace.

In the Imperial City, many cultivators were gazing at Ye Futian.

Would the descendent of Emperor Ye Qing return to the Imperial Palace?

Would the hostility between the two generations be resolved today?

Just that, how would Ye Futian be able to go up against Donghuang the Great?

Even the alliance of four Great Emperors was not able to kill him.

If Ye Futian entered Donghuang Imperial Palace, he probably would suffer the same fate as Emperor Ye Qing. This time, would Donghuang the Great still let him off?

The Ye Futian of today had become an extreme threat to Donghuang the Great.

Boom! At that moment, two shocking aura from afar drew near, and numerous people in the imperial city looked up at the sky to see the dazzling lights of the Buddha and the devil.

“Devil Emperor and The Buddha!” The cultivators were shocked. The six Great Emperors had taken their battle back to the imperial city.

“Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, depart at once.” A loud voice rang through the skies. It belonged to the Devil Emperor. He had been the first to leave the field of battle, and it was actually to rush over here to order Ye Futian and Yu Sheng to go.

As for himself, he was under the thumb of the Buddha and was still at a place very far from here.

Ye Futian heard what the Devil Emperor said but did not heed his order. Instead, he turned to Yu Sheng and said, “Yu Sheng, you wait for me outside.”

Yu Sheng turned around to look at where the Devil Emperor was, then he nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll wait for you to return.”

Both of them shared a tacit understanding. If Ye Futian were unable to return in the future, Yu Sheng would avenge him.

Buzz! Another divine light descended within Donghuang Imperial Palace. A holy and unsurpassable emperor’s might permeated the area.

“Your highness.” Within the Imperial Palace, many voices arose.

Donghuang the Great had returned.

He was currently sitting on the divine throne in the palace. His gaze pierced through the area and looked straight to the outside at Ye Futian. Ye Futian and Donghuang the Great looked across and could see each other.

“If it were you, you would sent people to take them away?” Ye Futian asked across the distance.

Donghuang the Great looked at him and said, “You’re finally here.”

Ye Futian frowned, not understanding what Donghuang the Great meant.

Did Donghuang the Great know that there would be such a day and was waiting for him to come?

“I’ve waited for you for a very long time,” Donghuang the Great continued.

Ye Futian peered inside. Was it his destiny?

Was this day foreordained when Emperor Ye Qing’s died during the battle of the two Emperors?

Today, no matter if he lived or died, he probably would find out the truth.

“Let me see if you have what it takes to make it to me.” Donghuang the Great threw out a challenge. “Come in!”

An emperor’s might permeated the area, and Ye Futian’s head of silver hair danced in the wind. Countless eyes were upon his handsome face.

A silver spear suddenly appeared in Ye Futian’s palms.

It was the Silver Spear!

That day, the genius of the Original Realm, the leader of Ye Imperial Palace, Ye Futian, entered Donghuang Imperial Palace!
