Ye Futian and the others returned to the Heavenly Mandate Academy, but the whole affair was far from over. The murderers who had ravaged the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path were not apprehended and punished. Instead, they were brought back by the Dark World.

This matter, of course, was not over.

However, the battle that took place in the Lower Worlds had created quite a lot of waves. Cultivators in both Divine Prefecture and the Dark World noticed the news, and all the principalities were on high alert. Although Ye Futian did not fulfill his promises, at the very least, he was working hard on making them a reality.

Had it not been for the Infernal King arriving in person from the Dark Court just in time, perhaps Ye Futian would have already killed those cultivators who brought terror to the Lower Worlds. It was said that they were the cultivators from the Infernal Clan, a peak principality of the Dark World.

In that battle, a cultivator of the Tribulation level had his Divine Wheel of the Great Path crushed, which spoke volumes of the Heavenly Mandate Academy’s resolve.

As such, even though Ye Futian was not able to fulfill his promise for the time being, the cultivators from various forces in the Dark World would do well to remember the trouble they got themselves in and no longer dare to wreak havoc in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. In reality, how many of them dared to compare themselves with the Infernal Clan?

Furthermore, if something happened to them, the Infernal King may not arrive in time to rescue them. After all, the Infernal King himself was a cultivator from the Infernal Clan.

Likewise, the forces in the Divine Prefecture were aware of Ye Futian’s determination. The Heavenly Mandate Academy, an ally, was actively fulfilling the promise made by Ye Futian to guard the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path, not to control it.

But for this, Ye Futian and the cultivators from the Heavenly Mandate Academy who had participated in that battle were greatly dissatisfied. They had witnessed the cruelty and bloodlust of their opponents. They had destroyed the realm and rendered it an Inferno on earth. However, these killers left with their lives, which, of course, was much to their chagrin.

In the Starry Sky World, there were many top cultivators at Ziwei the Great’s cultivating court. In addition to the many powerful men from Heavenly Mandate Academy, some forces represented the Divine Prefecture.

For example, the cultivators from the ancient royal family of Duan, the cultivators from the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow, and the father and daughter duo of Lord Luo and Luo Su from Outer Violet Heaven were all in attendance. Emperor Xi, Thunder Punishing Skylord, the Millet Emperor Li Changsheng, and the others had been comprehending the mystery of this starry sky all along to see if they could comprehend something from it. After all, the Great Emperor was an irresistible allure for any top-level cultivators. They hoped that in perceiving the meaning of the Great Emperor, they might have the opportunity to explore the mystery of a higher realm.

At this time, Ye Futian and the others had returned as well. Although they were eager for revenge, Ye Futian understood the situation clearly. He knew the limit of his own strength. What could he use to attack the forces in the Dark World?

The strength of Heavenly Mandate Academy was far from enough.

“Emperor Ye.” At this moment, in the starry sky, several beautiful ladies turned to look at Ye Futian. They were the three goddesses from the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow—Qin Qing, Jiang Yueli, and Chu Hanxi. The Sword Goddess was not far in the sky above them; she was comprehending the will hidden within this starry sky world.

The higher a person’s realm, the more they could sense that unfathomable aura. Vaguely, they could perceive that this starry sky seemed to be transformed by the will of the gods in heaven. Although they were not able to detect anything solid, it did bring them some insights.

For some lucky person, perhaps an epiphany could be experienced.

Ye Futian nodded to the goddesses, then said to Jiang Yueli, “Goddess Yueli has been in the Eighth Realm for many years and is the existence closest to the peak of Renhuang. I wonder if this starry sky world could help the goddess take that one last step.”

“I’m afraid it’s a bit difficult than that.” Jiang Yueli smiled gently while looking at Ye Futian. She said, “This last step is also the most difficult step to take. Once this step is taken, one then embarks on the path to higher pursuits. However, under this starry sky, a mysterious and unpredictable power is perceived. I hope I could comprehend something from it.”

She then smiled and continued as if she had remembered something, “Don’t keep talking about me. When I saw Emperor Ye last, I never thought that your strength would grow so rapidly. Today, your combat effectiveness should be well above mine.”

Ye Futian’s growth was indeed frightening. In her eyes, he was still a young genius talent who used to tag along with Li Changsheng and Zong Chan. However, now, he was stranger than her even if he was behind in realm.

“Goddess Yueli is overly modest. I am only in the Seventh Realm; quite a bit below the goddess still,” Ye Futian replied.

Next to them, Qin Qing and Chu Hanxi were both astounded by Ye Futian’s growth. They knew that their senior sister was right; Ye Futian’s combat effectiveness was already far above them. Now, other than the major figureheads, it’s hard for anyone to compete with him.

Once upon a time, he was chased and threatened by Ning Hua, who did everything to suppress him. But today, if the two were to meet again in battle, Ning Hua probably wouldn’t be able to defeat Ye Futian.

“Whatever power that the goddesses want to perceive, I can urge the divine power of the starry sky so that the goddesses may perceive it more clearly,” said Ye Futian. The three of them were speechless when they heard what he said; it seemed that Ye Futian was in full control of this starry sky world.

At this time, the Sword Goddess, who was above in the sky, came over to Ye Futian and said, “Is the will of Ziwei the Great still in this starry sky world?”

Ye Futian bowed slightly toward the Sword Goddess, extremely courteous, and replied, “To answer elder’s question, the will of Ziwei the Great has been completely integrated with this starry sky world. As long as this starry sky world exists, then the will of the Great Emperor exists with it also, unless the starry sky world is vanquished somehow. However, what kind of tribulation would be able to vanquish this world? That would probably be something that requires the intervention from the Great Emperor.”

Here, he could leverage the starry sky in battle. Back then, even the original palace lord of Ziwei Imperial Palace was killed by him when he leveraged this power. Therefore, only the likes of the Great Emperor might stand a chance to destroy this starry sky; anyone else would perish.

The Sword Goddess nodded gently and understood everything. This was probably the reason why she had sensed a mysterious and unpredictable force in this starry sky.

“May I perceive it a little more clearly?” the Sword Goddess asked.

“Of course,” replied Ye Futian. “Elder, please follow me.”

“Well, then.” The Sword Goddess nodded as the two moved higher up. The face of Ziwei the Great was still there, and they appeared just under that massive visage. Ye Futian looked up at the starry sky, and the boundless sky suddenly brightened up a few degrees more. As the stars shone, the infinite divine glory of the stars showered upon the Sword Goddess, who was beside him.

At this moment, the Sword Goddess raised her head to look at the starry sky. She stretched out her hand to touch the starlight, and that feeling became even stronger.

Many cultivators now looked at them and marveled at Ye Futian’s absolute control over this starry sky.

A turn of his thought could attract the divine glory of the starry sky; even the will of the Great Emperor could be summoned.

After a long while, the Sword Goddess said to Ye Futian, “Thank you very much.”

“Elder is being too formal.” As Ye Futian moved his thoughts, the starry divine light gradually dissipated. He continued, “In this starry sky world, aside from these Imperial Stars, many stars contain some type of particular powers, suitable for many in the Renhuang Realm to comprehend. However, this was not necessary for someone like yourself and your realm. However, if you agree, people from Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow may come here to cultivate and use this place as a place for cultivation.”

The Sword Goddess stared at Ye Futian, wondering if he meant for the cultivators of Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow to cultivate here?

Once he saw the sharpness in her eyes, Ye Futian continued, “The Heavenly Mandate Academy could be an ally with Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow. Now that chaos reign over the Original Realm, sooner or later, it will spread to the Divine Prefecture and the rest of the world.”

The Sword Goddess understood Ye Futian’s meaning instantly. While her eyes were still fastened on Ye Futian, she then nodded and said, “Very well.”

Clearly, she was willing to accept him as an ally. In fact, she was very optimistic about Ye Futian’s future prospects!
