The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2245: Déjà vu

The sovereign of Golden Divine Nation, Gai Cang, stepped forward. Divine light flowed over his figure. From afar, he clenched his fist and a gigantic Golden Giant Palm immediately appeared on Black Wind Condor’s figure.

Black Wind Condor struggled furiously. However, the Golden Giant Palm was frighteningly powerful. It was not something Black Wind Condor could break free from.

Kacha. The Golden Giant Palm suddenly tightened. Black Wind Condor let out a sorrowful cry. Red light seeped out of his jet black eyes as he stared at Gai Cang up in the sky.

“Head back to the divine nation immediately and bring over the core members. Also, evacuate everyone else,” Gai Cang immediately ordered.

“Yes,” replied the cultivators behind him as they received his order.

They understood his intentions. Shen clan and many other cultivators also gave the same orders. Some people personally returned while others sent people back.

The actions of Heavenly Mandate Academy had alarmed them.

Gai Cang glanced around at the crowd as he loudly said, “Members of the Original Realm, I believe I do not need to say much. Today, even if we just stop here and go back, do you believe that Ye Futian will not come with his group to massacre us if he has truly taken charge of Ziwei Imperial Palace?”

For the top forces who had stirred up the conflict back in the day, there was already no way out for them now. They had no choice but to kill Ye Futian to prevent future peril.

During his journey to the Ziwei Segmentum this time, Ye Futian had undergone another metamorphosis and now ruled over Ziwei Imperial Palace. He had immediately backed them into a corner. There was no escape for them.

They had no way out of this predicament aside from killing Ye Futian and completely settling this score.

Gai Cang told the cultivators from the other forces, “As for everyone else, to my knowledge, not only does Ye Futian possess the teachings of Great Emperor Ziwei, he has also previously obtained the teachings of Shenjia the Great Emperor in the Divine Prefecture. Back when he was in the Original Realm, he had already received the teachings of a Great Emperor. I suspect that he keeps some secrets. By capturing Ye Futian, one will obtain more than just the teachings of Great Emperor Ziwei.” He continued, “Aside from that, by killing Ye Futian and destroying Heavenly Mandate Academy, the secrets of the Heavenly Mandate Realm will be revealed to all. There might also be astonishing secrets within.”

His words had riled up quite a number of people. They had indeed looked into Ye Futian’s background and discovered that this person was a legendary figure among the younger generation. He had risen the ranks at a shocking speed and had also inherited the teachings of many Great Emperors. This was definitely not a coincidence. What secrets was he hiding?

Not only did the cultivators not back down, they were even more resolved to act.

“Have all of you considered the consequences if you fail?” asked Lord Taixuan as his rickety body stood up straight right then. He got up and looked at the various cultivators in the sky. He then said, “You can ask them. More than 20 years ago, the various forces of the Original Realm came over with the intention of killing Ye Futian. Faced with certain death, Ye Futian still managed to survive. After he returned, Gai Cang and the others ended up in their current situation. If all of you were to fail again, what will the situation be like in another 20 years?”

“Moreover, yet alone in 20 years, who among you can singlehandedly withstand the retribution of Ye Futian now?” Lord Taixuan continued, “I am old and there are not many people left in Heavenly Mandate Academy. Our deaths are insignificant. Using us to threaten Ye Futian was a mistake. I hope that all of you will consider this thoroughly. Otherwise, once the end result differs from what all of you imagine, what will the consequences be?”

“Ye Futian will certainly return. With the cultivators present here, it won’t be like 20 years ago. We will definitely kill him, even if we need to shatter the Realm,” said Gai Cang in a cold tone as terrifying golden divine light emanated from his figure.

As he said this, he looked at Black Wind Condor and said, “Since you have heard what I said, then quickly return to your master. Before you return here again, I will not touch the others. If you do not return or attempt to play tricks on us, we will wipe Heavenly Mandate Academy off the face of the earth. We will also hunt down the cultivators of Heavenly Mandate Academy who flee.”

Black Wind Condor was still struggling to break free as he glared at Gai Cang. He said, “If anything happens to any of them, I will not return to Heavenly Mandate Academy, but instead head over to your Golden Divine Nation. I will massacre all the cultivators who attempt to flee.”

“I will be waiting,” answered Gai Cang as he flung Black Wind Condor. However, a formless power held him back. It was Lord Taixuan.

His gaze swept across the various cultivators. Aside from the various forces that participated in the war back then, there were many other forces. There were forces from the Divine Prefecture, the Dark World and even the Empty Divine Realm. They were just standing there. Lord Taixuan did not know who would attack and who was just here to spectate.

Far off in other locations, cultivators from many other forces appeared. Among them, there were many forces from the Donghua Domain as well as the Shangqing Domain.

Sword Goddess of the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow from the Donghua Domain was also here. She had a number of disciples with her. From the looks of it, Ye Futian would face some trouble this time around.

There were people from three major Realms who wanted to kill him. A tree that stood out in the forest would be toppled by the wind. Ye Futian was indeed the most outstanding monstrous figure that she had encountered. His path of development had been too astonishing and too rapid. No wonder his enemies in these top forces were uneasy. They could only resort to killing Ye Futian, regardless of the cost. They would not be at ease until Ye Futian was dead.

From the looks of it, Heavenly Mandate Academy was about to be pulled into a huge war. What would the end result be?

Right now, the cultivators of the various forces had their own agenda. They were contemplating whether they should participate in the war.

When Ye Futian and the others returned here, what would they choose to do?

In the distance, there were many cultivators in Heavenly Mandate City looking over in this direction. They did not dare to approach, only peering over from afar. The silhouettes that appeared in the sky were like deities. Although the people in Heavenly Mandate City were already used to cultivators appearing in the city, the lineup before their eyes still made their hearts tremble.

These were the cultivators from the top forces that had returned from the Ziwei Realm. Why had they all gathered over here in Heavenly Mandate City and descended upon Heavenly Mandate Academy?

What astonishing thing had Ye Futian, that Proud Son of Heaven, done again? He actually drew so many cultivators here, stirring up such a storm.

In a tavern in the distance, there was a jet black silhouette sitting quietly and drinking wine alone. It appeared very lonely. This gave the people in the tavern a sense of déjà vu. It seemed that such a scene had occurred once more than 20 years ago.

The person who had been drinking wine in the tavern back then also seemed to be this person.

Rumor has it that he was a powerful presence in the Devil World, Devil General Mei Ting.

Mei Ting had once again come to the Heavenly Mandate Realm. However, unlike last time, someone had heard rumors of a disturbance in the Original Realm and sent him to survey the situation. It was not an order from the Devil Emperor.

After more than 20 years, Mei Ting was still contemplating the same question.

Who exactly was this Ye Futian?

These past few years, Ye Futian seemed to have stirred up storms in the Divine Prefecture. After returning to the Heavenly Mandate Realm, he immediately caused such a huge commotion. He truly seemed to be the center of the storm wherever he went.

No wonder that person had asked Mei Ting to come take a look for himself. It might be because he knew Ye Futian too well. He knew that the commotion in the Original Realm would certainly involve Ye Futian.
