Chapter 2041: Direct Attack
The dashing, silver-haired Ye Futian and the stunning, heavenly Goddess Taihua were facing each other in the Law Battle Platform.
The battle between the two Divine Melodies ended in a tie. Although Ye Futian and Goddess Taihua were competing against each other, many people believed that they would make a perfect couple.
In the past, they felt this way about Ning Hua and Goddess Taihua. Now, however, they realized that Ye Futian seemed to be an even better match for Goddess Taihua than Ning Hua. He also excelled at the Divine Melodies. It would be perfect if they could play the guqin together.
They played the Divine Melody Taihua and the Song of the Lost Divine just now. The audience was quite satisfied for hearing two Divine Melodies contend with each other at the Donghua Banquet today. They couldn’t help but exclaim how astonishing and eye-opening the matches between top cultivators were.
Goddess Taihua and Ye Futian looked into each other’s eyes on the Law Battle Platform. Ye Futian spoke with a smile, “I learned a lot from listening to you performing the Divine Melody today. It’s truly my blessing. You’re much better at music than me.”
Many people were impressed by Ye Futian’s modesty. As a legendary cultivator, Ye Futian was exceptionally humble. He tied with Goddess Taihua despite being in a lower cultivation level, yet he still praised her for being better at music.
The audience could clearly tell that neither of them could gain the upper hand. This battle of the Divine Melodies ended with a draw.
“You’re so modest, Renhuang Ye. It’s my honor to have a chance to listen to the Song of the Lost Divine,” Goddess Taihua responded. A person who had an ear for music, naturally, wanted to learn about all the famous songs in the world. She was delighted to appreciate the Song of the Lost Divine today even though she didn’t beat her opponent. It was such a rare opportunity.
Two people who excelled at the Divine Melodies met at the Donghua Banquet.
Sitting in the Donghua Palace, Emperor Xi looked at Ye Futian and Goddess Taihua, who were standing on the Law Battle Platform, and said, “It’s indeed a pleasure to listen to the Divine Taihua Melody and the Song of the Lost Divine at the same time. It’s a unique experience even for us.”
“The Divine Taihua Melody is vigorous and forceful and could suppress the Great Path in the world. The Song of the Lost Divine is melancholy and sorrowful, filled with lasting regrets, which could disturb and frustrate the Great Path. They truly deserve to be among the ten Divine Melodies of the Divine Prefecture,” Thunder Punishing Skylord chimed in.
While speaking, Thunder Punishing Skylord gazed at Ye Futian with an inscrutable look. It was more and more difficult for him to figure Ye Futian out. He had never met a youngster who had unfathomable abilities.
Ye Futian seemed to be thoroughly accomplished in everything. There was nothing that he had not cultivated.
It was said that Ye Futian gained fame for his swordsmanship. But none of the skills he displayed later was less proficient than his swordsmanship.
On top of that, he could blend the Path of the Sword with other types of law power and make the best of his advantages. For instance, the swordplay happened during the Song of the Lost Divine just now.
Was he really just a disciple from the Eastern Deity Island?
Even if the Supreme Deity Donglai was still alive, it was unlikely for him to raise such an extraordinary cultivator, let alone his daughter who was the current head of the Eastern Deity Island. After all, hardly anyone of the same generation in the entire Donghua Domain was a match for Ye Futian.
“That’s right. This Donghua Banquet is certainly a success for having so many remarkable cultivators. They will all be the mainstay of the Donghua Domain in the future,” Chief Ning said with a smile. People nodded in agreement.
The Divine Prefecture had been united for more than three hundred years, but few master cultivators were born and raised during this time. Many of them already reached the peak before the unification of the Divine Prefecture. As time went by, the younger generation sprang up and would be in the same league sooner or later. The best of them might even surpass the current master cultivators.
“It goes without saying that the vice chief will inherit the chief’s legacy and lead the next generation to preside over the Donghua Domain,” the Palace Lord of the Lingxiao Palace said, simpering.
Ye Futian and Goddess Taihua returned to their seats in the area below the Donghua Palace.
Many cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower were staring at Ye Futian and felt even more curious about him.
“Awesome,” a high-level Renhuang from Wangshen Watchtower expressed his admiration.
“Where did you learn the Divine Melody? Besides, you can master several types of power of the Great Path. How many years have you been cultivating?” someone asked out of curiosity. Ye Futian looked extremely young. Although it was hard to estimate a cultivator’s exact age, it was possible to venture a rough guess if looking closely enough. Judging by his appearance, Ye Futian couldn’t have cultivated for more than a hundred years.
How did he achieve that? It felt like there was nothing that he couldn’t do.
Nevertheless, Beigong Ao and Beigong Shuang were used to it. They had already known how versatile Ye Futian was and wouldn’t be staggered no matter what miracle Ye Futian made happen. They understood that Ye Futian shouldn’t be considered and judged as a normal human being. He was a real genius.
At this point, Yan Hanxing’s voice rang out in the direction of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family, “The Great Yan competed with Wangshen Watchtower back in the Turtle Deity Island. Why don’t you take advantage of the opportunity provided by the Donghua Banquet and learn from the disciples of the Millet Emperor?”
Quite some people were surprised to hear Yan Hanxing’s words. Countless pairs of eyes focused on him in an instant.
Chief Ning said in the past that they might have a chance to fight when they came to the Donghua Heavens. They were all here now. Besides, the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family already targeted Leng Qinghan from the Leng family during the first Law Battle. Ye Futian vanquished Yan Dongyang after that and further deepened the enmity.
The Great Yan Ancient Royal Family didn’t attempt to hide their hostility anymore. They were directly proclaiming war against Wangshen Watchtower.
A person walked out of the crowd. Many cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower put on a solemn face when they recognized him. It was Yan Chi, another prince of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family.
Yan Chi was a third-order Renhuang with a perfect Divine Wheel of the Great Path. He had extraordinary strength and might be even stronger than Yan Dongyang when fighting against opponents at the same level.
Wangshen Watchtower might not have any Lower Renhuang who could win over him.
“A prince of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family?” People started gossiping right away.
“Yes.” Someone nodded and said, “The Great Yan Ancient Royal Family is going to attack Wangshen Watchtower at the Donghua Banquet. I’m afraid that they have planned it for a long time and waited till now. Besides, the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family has issued an official challenge, yet the Wangshen Watchtower couldn’t keep asking Ye Futian to deal with them. It’s going to be a test for the Renhuangs from Wangshen Watchtower.”
“I’m Yan Chi from the Great Yan, third-order Renhuang. Please feel free to send out anyone you want.” Yan Chi walked toward the Law Battle Platform while speaking. Although he told Wangshen Watchtower to dispatch a cultivator at their will, they couldn’t select anyone at a higher cultivation level since Yan Chi already announced his level.
The vibe changed abruptly. People shifted their eyes to the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower, who seemed more somber than usual.
The cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower apparently understood that it was almost impossible for their Lower Renhuangs to defeat Yan Chi.
“Yan Chi is a talented prince of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family. He must have remarkable abilities. Wangshen Watchtower might be put in a disadvantaged position if we send someone at the same level. Qingfeng, go ahead,” said Li Changsheng.
Everyone immediately widened their eyes in surprise.
But Li Changsheng smiled as though he wasn’t aware of people’s gaze.
Liu Qingfeng was a fourth-order Renhuang and the only middle-level Renhuang from Wangshen Watchtower who had a perfect Divine Wheel of the Great Path. He obviously had an edge over Yan Chi for being at a higher cultivation level.
“Li Changsheng, what do you mean?” Yan Hanxing glared at Li Changsheng and asked.
Li Changsheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Yan Hanxing. With a smile on his face, he countered, “What? The prince of the Great Yan told us to feel free to pick anyone. I selected Qingfeng. What’s wrong with that?”
“A middle-level Renhuang is matched against a lower Renhuang. What do you think?” Yan Hanxing retorted in a cold voice. He knew Li Changsheng was playing dumb.
“Then why did you ask us to pick anyone we want if you want to limit to the same level?” Li Changsheng said sarcastically. People from the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family were a little embarrassed.
“The Great Yan didn’t care about cultivation level when you were fighting against brother Ye before, did you? You have sent out fifth-order, sixth-order, and even high-level Renhuangs, right? Aside from everyone else, what level was Yan Dongyang in during the battle at Wangshen Watchtower? What level was brother Ye on?” Li Changsheng said in a sneering tone, “If they insist on limiting to contenders at the same cultivation level, brother Ye, may I trouble you to challenge the cultivators from the Great Yan one by one?”
“Sure,” Ye Futian answered and stood up. Everyone from the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family looked quite awkward.
Li Changsheng was determined to keep Wangshen Watchtower from being taken advantage of. Having said that, it was true that everyone who fought against Ye Futian on behalf of the Great Yan was at a higher cultivation level than him.
Li Changsheng sounded reasonable from that point of view.
Since people knew the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family was deliberately attacking Wangshen Watchtower and might be brutal and merciless with their cultivators, Li Changsheng certainly wouldn’t let the Great Yan have their way.
“Fine, he’ll do,” Yan Chi, who was standing on the Law Battle Platform, spoke up. He agreed to spar with Liu Qingfeng.
Yan Hanxing glared at Li Changsheng but didn’t say anything else.
