<h4>Chapter 2355: West Imperial Pce</h4>
Ye Futian’s eyes were a little cold when he heard what the woman had to say. Were these forces in Divine Prefecture checking into his background?
Indeed, as the other stated, his climb to fame could not bepletely erased. In the Heavenly Mandate Realm alone, more than a few people knew that he had firste from the Crimson Dragon Realm. And anyone who went to the Crimson Dragon Realm could surely trace his movements back to Emperor Xia’s Realm.
Once they were at Emperor Xia’s Realm, it wouldn’t be hard to continue tracking his history,yer byyer. As long as they were determined enough, there was enough information for them to dig up.
When they set their minds on investigating something, those top powers in Divine Prefecture had a way to uncover anything they want, unless it was something extremely secretive.
“It seems that Emperor Ye cared a lot about that. But as eye-catching as Emperor Ye has been, I’m sure you understand this is quite unavoidable. Not to mention that Emperor Ye has already relocated families and associates from the Lower Worlds to the Heavenly Mandate Academy, then sent them on to Ziwei Segmentum. There is not much sense in disguising these details.” The beautiful eyes of the peerless empress from West Imperial Pce stared directly into Ye Futian’s as if she was trying to fathom something from those eyes of his.
Ye Futian raised his head and looked at her. When they locked eyes, Ye Futian seemed to have calmed down, not showing his emotions from before. It seemed that he no longer cared about what the other person had to say.
“West Imperial Pce didn’te here just to tell me this, surely?” Ye Futian looked at the empress and said. “Furthermore, the way by which you all forced your way into the Heavenly Mandate Academy doesn’t seem very friendly.”
“Emperor Ye was cultivating in the Lost n and avoided receiving visitors. Without using extraordinary measures, how could we meet Emperor Ye face to face?” the Empress answered with tranquility. “As for our visit this time, naturally, we are not here just to inform you that those principalities in the Divine Prefecture were checking you out; we just wanted to remind Emperor Ye that as someone who caused this many waves, you are attracting unwanted attention. What’s more, Emperor Ye is in possession of inheritances from several Great Emperors. Principalities from whichever side have some designs of their own.”
“Furthermore, don’t forget that while you were at the Lost n, Emperor Ye had already offended most of the cultivators in Divine Prefecture, including West Imperial Pce. Therefore, although the Original Realm is part of Divine Prefecture, Emperor Ye must have some ideas as to the feelings of these forces from Divine Prefecture. Now, cultivators in other worlds are also watching closely, and surely, they are not friendlies as far as Ye Futian is concerned. If anything were to happen in the future, how many forces do you think would be willing to stand up for the Heavenly Mandate Academy? Do you think those forces in the Divine Prefecture would?”
The Empress continued. In fact, what she said was true enough. Although the Original Realm was part of the Divine Prefecture, if a war were really to break out, they would be lucky if these forces from Divine Prefecture didn’t join in on the attack.
“In that case, I have to thank West Imperial Pce for reminding me. However, I still don’t understand what any of this has to do with the West Imperial Pce,” Ye Futian continued. The other was analyzing the situation with him and warning him at the same time, but could the West Imperial Pce have gone through all this trouble just to remind him?
Why bother going through so much trouble?
“Heavenly Mandate Academy is the heart of the Nine Realms, and the Original Realm is part of the Divine Prefecture. Now, Emperor Ye’s achievements are one of a kind. As a Renhuang of the Seventh-Realm to sit at the top of Heavenly Mandate Academy, no matter how you look at it, it is something truly remarkable,” the empress continued. In front of Ye Futian, there was always a faint aura of the Great Path permeating from her.
Ye Futian looked at her with some vague understanding. After a moment of silence, he continued, “So, what is the purpose of the West Imperial Pceing to visit the Heavenly Mandate Academy?”
“Previously, I have talked to Emperor Ye about the current situation facing the Heavenly Mandate Academy. I think Emperor Ye and Heavenly Mandate Academy are both in need of friends. You will need to integrate into the Divine Prefecture so you won’t be isted in the future.” The woman continued, “Although the Heavenly Mandate Academy and the Lost n have forged an alliance, the Lost n is also considered an external force that came to the Original Realm from the void, and the Divine Prefecture still does not identify with the Lost n. The Heavenly Mandate Academy and the Lost n together could be considered powerful, but it will be difficult to face everyone together.”
“West Imperial Pce desires to ally with the Heavenly Mandate Academy?” Ye Futian looked at her and asked.
“The West Imperial Pce is a supreme principality above all and has enough influence in the West Sea Domain. If Emperor Ye wants to, we can be friends. The West Imperial Pce will help the Heavenly Mandate Academy recruit other forces in the West Sea Domain to form an alliance. This way, the Heavenly Mandate Academy can be part of the entire Western Sea Domain of Divine Prefecture. There will inevitably be some forces in other areas of Divine Prefecture who will not agree, but there won’t be much they can do. Especially with Princess Donghuang in charge, it might restrain some of these forces in Divine Prefecture,” the woman from West Imperial Pce continued.
“In that case, many thanks to the goddess,” Ye Futian said with a smile. “The Heavenly Mandate Academy wishes to make more friends, and what better friendship than being allied with the West Imperial Pce and the forces in the West Sea Domain? Naturally, the Heavenly Mandate Academy is more than willing. I myself also want to be good friends with you, goddess.”
Would the West Imperial Pce ally so easily with the Heavenly Mandate Academy?
If this were really the case, he wouldn’t mind. After all, he understood that what the other had justid out for him was the truth. The situation as it stood today was not the most favorable for the Heavenly Mandate Academy.
The woman from the West Imperial Pce was caught by surprise when Ye Futian readily agreed with her. This was a man who knew how to take advantage of any situation. If the West Imperial Pce wanted to stand on the side of Heavenly Mandate Academy, they would also endure a great deal of pressure; they knew the current situation better than anyone.
The alliance was true enough, but it was not as simple as all that.
“Is Emperor Ye willing to enter the West Imperial Pce to cultivate, then?” the woman asked suddenly. Ye Futian was stunned. To cultivate at West Imperial Pce?
“What exactly does goddess mean by this?” Ye Futian looked at the other and queried.
“The West Imperial Pce is inherited from the West Emperor, and it is the overlord of the West Sea Domain. The inheritance of the West Emperor is contained in the imperial pce. I know that Emperor Ye shoulders the inheritance of several Great Emperors, but the inheritance of any Great Emperor is extraordinary. If Emperor Ye is willing to enter the West Imperial Pce to cultivate, you will have the opportunity to inherit from yet another Great Emperor.” The woman continued, “In addition, the West Imperial Pce will treat Emperor Ye fairly. Whatever status or conditions that Emperor Ye desires, we will consider them all.”
Behind Ye Futian, the cultivators from the Heavenly Mandate Academy were looking at this peerless empress from the West Imperial Pce. Secretly, they were all amazed at the ambition expressed by West Imperial Pce. They were bold enough to persuade Ye Futian to cultivate in the West Imperial Pce, thus bing a part of the West Imperial Pce.
Ye Futian’s status was not as it was once. Today, he was the College Chief of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, the Pce Lord of Ziwei Imperial Pce, and the leader of Four Corner Vige—all at the same time. In addition, he shouldered the inheritance from Ziwei the Great, Shenjia the Great Emperor, and Shenyin the Great, simultaneously. Not long ago, he was ruling thend of the Original Realm.
What kind of principality dared to convince him to cultivate under them?
From the perspective of those from the Heavenly Mandate Academy, such a request was only possible unless it was the likes of Donghuang the Great, the Devil Emperor, the Evil Emperor, and other such characters of this caliber who requested person. For a Great Emperor who was no more, it was just not enough to attract Ye Futian to cultivate under him with the inheritance alone!
