Chapter 2078 - Cultivating at Turtle Deity Island

The battle at Wangshen Watchtower once again shocked the Donghua Domain. After everyone from all the top forces on the main continents learned of the news, it spread to the other continents in Donghua Domain and became a legend.

On the day that the Chief ordered the name of Wangshen Watchtower to be struck from Donghua Domain, Wangshen Watchtower was pillaged by all the participating Renhuang. At the time, Wangshen Watchtower’s chief disciple, Li Changsheng, ascended to the top of the Watchtower, intending to go down with it. He had given his spiritual soul to every inch of the Watchtower when he was besieged by everyone as he shed his blood.

However, he came back from death miraculously and was resurrected. Li Changsheng’s spiritual soul merged into Wangshen Watchtower, and the Becoming made his rebirth possible. He cut down those Renhuang and washed Wangshen Watchtower with their blood. Li Changsheng returned and broke through the shackles in cultivation, proving the supremacy of the Way.

Yan Hanxing was the only one who managed to escape because of his premonition. After that, Wangshen Watchtower was sealed off as everyone was being slaughtered, including the Palace Lord of Alchemy Divine Palace.

Wangshen Watchtower was destroyed, and Zong Chan was killed. No one expected that this situation would force another powerful figure to come into being.

After Li Changsheng’s breakthrough and departure from Wangshen Watchtower, some people speculated that he searched the Millet Emperor. Before, because Li Changsheng could not see any hope of revenge, he waged his life in the final confrontation. It was different now. The person he was today would be able to get his revenge. He and the Millet Emperor would be enough to contend against the ancient royal family of Yan and Lingxiao Palace. Under such circumstances, Li Changsheng no longer needed to seek death as the last resort but could focus on avenging Zong Chan and those dead disciples of Wangshen Watchtower.

The Millet Emperor was still alive, and now there was Li Changsheng. Perhaps, from now on, no one would dare to set foot on Wangshen Watchtower carelessly, even if it remained in ruins. However, anyone who wanted to enter Wangshen Watchtower must consider the consequences.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Everything seemed to be different now.

This turmoil seemed far from over, but no one was arguing about who was right or who was wrong anymore. After, it didn’t matter. What matter the most now was how the turmoil would evolve in the future. Its ripple effects were yet to be seen.

It was already days later when Ye Futian learned of the news. He was cultivating when he heard it in Xia Qingyuan’s transmission. He had been worried about Li Changsheng, and now he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Yang Wuqi came to see Ye Futian, and when he saw that Ye Futian had stopped cultivating, he looked relieved. He said with a smile, “It seems that you already knew.”

“Mmm,” Ye Futian nodded.

“Never expected that the chief disciple of the Millet Emperor would have this opportunity. After this breakthrough, it will not be easy for the Domain Chief’s Manor and the Yan Kingdom to deal with him,” Yang Wuqi said. After the breakthrough, he had reached another level, and another world had opened up.

Even though Li Changsheng, who had just had the breakthrough, was not yet strong enough to take on those figureheads of the opposition. The Divine Prefecture was a massive territory, and Li Changsheng could be anywhere. He could leave Donghua Domain, and it would not be easy to track him and take him out.

Ye Futian nodded. He was also happy for Li Changsheng, but when he thought of Zong Chan, his mood darkened again. He whispered, “If Brother Zong Chan is still there, Wangshen Watchtower might produce three giants in the future.”

“If Zong Chan was still around, Li Changsheng might not have this great opportunity.” Yang Wuqi said, “Perhaps this is what they meant by ‘What goes up must come down.’ Don’t think too much about it. You have to look forward, and when you reach the Ninth Realm one day, it won’t be a problem to explore the possibility to reinstate Wangshen Watchtower.”

Ye Futian didn’t say much/. “Some of my friends may be here in a few days, and I will have to rely on your hospitality.”

“I will do my best.” Yang Wuqi nodded.

“Thank you.” Ye Futian bowed slightly. Goddess Donglai and Xia Qingyuan were already on their way.

...

After Goddess Donglai and the others returned to Eastern Deity Island, they divided all the island resources to the cultivators. They dismissed them, letting them go back to where they belonged.

Although principalities like the Domain Chief’s Manor wouldn’t care much about Eastern Deity Island and wouldn’t even bother to attack it, they still had to guard against the Ancient Royal Family of Yan to avoid involving the others. Therefore, Goddess Donglai decided to dissolve Eastern Deity Island. Even though she was very reluctant, it had to be done to avoid the risks.

Of course, Eastern Deity Island still existed, guarded by some who volunteered to stay behind on Penglai Deity Island. Goddess Donglai hung on to the hope that she may return there one day.

After disbanding Eastern Deity Island, Goddess Donglai took a few people and started heading towards the Divine Ocean Continent.

On this day, when they crossed the Divine Ocean, they saw a huge island in front of them that resembled a divine turtle.

“We are here,” said the Alchemy Emperor. He was also following along with Goddess Donglai. The Millet Emperor and Supreme Being Donglai were his benefactors. Now they had both fallen victim to unfortunate events, and it was revealed that it had been the doing of Chief Ning. Hence, he decided to follow Goddess Donglai and help her in her endeavor.

A powerful divine consciousness swept towards everyone. Alchemy Emperor and Goddess Donglai both looked over there and saw a figure came from the void. The man who crossed the space and showed up in front of them was ordinary-looking, and there was no detectable aura being released from him. Nonetheless, the Alchemy Emperor, Goddess Donglai, and the others knew that this man was anything but ordinary.

Yang Wuqi folded his hands together and bowed slightly to the others, introducing himself, “Yang Wuqi.”

After being introduced, Goddess Donglai and the others also greeted him in return. Xia Qingyuan said, “Thank you, Elder, for your assistance the other day.”

Yang Wuqi gave Xia Qingyuan a look and nodded with a smile, “It’s but a small matter; everyone, this way.”

The group turned and headed towards Turtle Deity Island. Soon, they came to a mountain peak, and there was a huge manor there. In one area at the back of the mountains, a figure stood there quietly, looking into the sky. Upon seeing Goddess Donglai, Xia Qingyuan, and the others, he was filled with emotion.

Little Condor came to Ye Futian’s side as Ye Futian patted his head. He then looked at Goddess Donglai with a smile. “I am relieved to see that the senior sister is alright.”

“What are your plans for the future?” Goddess Donglai asked. The Domain Chief’s Manor had put them on the wanted list. The entire Donghua Domain was officially in the control of Domain Chief’s Manor. They would be wanted fugitives unless they left Donghua Domain.

“I plan to be in retreat for some time first.” Ye Futian said. “To elevate my cultivation some more, I will continue to cultivate on Turtle Deity Island before I break through the realm.”

During this trip to attend Donghua Banquet, he felt a great deal of pressure. Now, in addition to this side of Donghua Domain, those top forces that he had offended in the Original Realm may have gotten wind by now that he was still alive. He must be more cautious.

There were four realms in Renhuang. With the perfect Great path, even if he could deal with ordinary cultivators of the Eighth Realm, it was not nearly enough for figures at Ning Hua’s level. When facing those opponents, he had no power to fight back and could only be crushed.

This was the reality of cultivation, an endless journey. He used to think that Renhuang was high above everything. But when he reached this level, the enemies he came in contact with were in an even higher realm.

Therefore, he could only force himself to keep moving forward. Perhaps one day, when he finally entered the realm at the peak of Renhuang, he could truly dominate the land of the Divine Prefecture.

Goddess Donglai nodded. With Emperor Xi in charge of Turtle Deity Island, it couldn’t be a safer place.

“In this case, we had to trouble Emperor Xi,” Goddess Donglai said to Yang Wuqi.

“It’s quite alright. Master has already said that you can stay here as long as you want.” Yang Wuqi smiled. “I’ll bid my goodbye now and leave you to catch up.”

After that, he turned and left.

Goddess Donglai sighed. This was the confidence brought on by having great strength. Even if Chief Ning Yuan found out about it one day, he would probably not dare to touch Emperor Xi. He had already declared war on Millet Emperor and Li Changsheng, he really could do without another opponent as powerful as Emperor Xi or the likes of Thunder Punishing Skylord. If he were foolish enough to do that, perhaps even the Great Emperor would question his sanity and abilities.

After all, the Great Emperor sent him to take charge of Donghua Domain, not to start a war.

Furthermore, what happened before at Donghua Banquet was mishandled, which caused many forces to be wary of the Domain Chief’s Manor. However, this was to be expected. If Ye Futian had been killed by the ancient royal family of Yan in the secret zone, the situation would be totally different. In that case, even without his participation, the ancient royal family of Yan, Lingxiao Palace, and the Millet Emperor would go to war. Then, it would have been the same as the death of Donglai Supreme Being; no one would suspect him.

Ye Futian was quite the variable in the whole equation.
