"Renhuang Ye, what pointers do you have for me?" Goddess Taihua asked Ye Futian. Ye Futian observed her expression. Goddess Taihua seemed to wear a look of caution. Back then, they had fought each other before. During the Donghua Banquet, the two of them had fought using Divine Melodies.

Ye Futian also knew that Ning Yuan, the Domain Chief of the Donghua Domain, was ambitious. He wanted complete control over all the forces in the domain. He meant for Ning Hua and Goddess Taihua to be married. As for what Taihua Mountain thought about this, Ye Futian was unsure.

However, the Donghua Domain Chief's Manor was destined to be Ye Futian's enemy. He naturally did not want to see the forces of the Domain Chief's Manor grow stronger.

"It can't be considered pointers. Back during the Donghua Banquet, I exchanged notes with Goddess over songs. I thought we were quite agreeable, so I wanted to get to know Goddess better. In the future, if we have the opportunity, we could discuss music and learn from each other. What do you think, Goddess?" Ye Futian suggested.

Goddess Taihua's beautiful gaze revealed a strange look. She looked seriously at Ye Futian as thoughts surfaced in her mind.

Ye Futian was currently considered to be in his prime. During the Donghua Banquet, he had displayed his caliber and was well known in the Donghua Domain, gaining fame overnight. Later, when he went to the Shangqing Domain, he also became famous there. His talent was not less than Ning Hua.

Now, he was approaching her. His goal for doing so was enough to cause Goddess Taihua's imagination to run wild.

Far off in the sky, Ning Hua was looking over in this direction. His gaze was extremely sharp. His figure also floated over as he stared at Ye Futian.

Was Ye Futian already acting so presumptuous?

It was not just him. The members of the Donghua Domain all knew the relationship between the three parties; they could not help but feel intrigued. The beautiful gazes of Qin Qing and the other goddesses of Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow revealed strange looks.

Was Ye Futian trying to undermine Ning Hua?

Was he purely trying to make Ning Hua look bad?

"Renhuang Ye, you are too kind. With your attainments, I feel that I have nothing worth teaching you," answered Goddess Taihua. She naturally also sensed that the atmosphere around her was off. She kept a distant aura as she said this.

Ye Futian also understood Goddess Taihua's intent. She was turning him down. Goddess Taihua did not want to have anything to do with him.

If that was the case, he did not need to reveal his intention. The other party's attitude was already made very clear.

"Alright. Sorry to have disturbed you, Goddess," said Ye Futian as he bowed slightly. He then turned and left. All throughout this exchange, his etiquette had been thoughtful. Goddess Taihua felt strange as she looked at his silhouette. She did not know what Ye Futian was thinking and why he had suddenly approached her.

Many of the members of the Donghua Domain were puzzled. With Ye Futian's level of cultivation, he couldn't be trying to court her. Why had he suddenly approached Goddess Taihua? What was his intent?

Right then, they saw Ye Futian return to where he was high in the sky. He closed his eyes and silently cultivated. Not long after, divine light descended upon Ye Futian from the heavens above. Instantly, countless gazes were drawn over towards him. They all revealed looks of astonishment.

"That is…" In the starry sky, the various cultivators felt their hearts thumping. He had communicated with another Imperial Star?

Many people looked up at the Imperial Star in the sky. They could faintly make out a divine silhouette. For a moment, an astonishing storm of Rhythmic Sorcery appeared around Ye Futian's figure. The sound of a guqin could actually be heard. The frightening Rhythmic Sorcery swept out. The cultivators in the starry sky could sense its beat.

A guqin seemed to appear in the starry sky.

When Goddess Taihua saw this scene, her face turned pale instantly. She seemed to have caught on to something.

Aside from her, all the cultivators from the Donghua Domain also realized why Ye Futian had approached her just now.

"Before this, the blind Renhuang, who followed and protected Ye Futian, inherited an Imperial Star," said Qin Qing. Her heart was palpitating wildly as she looked at Jiang Yueli and Chu Hanxi beside her. The two were also staring at her with trembling hearts.

Did such a monstrous figure really exist?

"From the looks of it, Ye Futian is indeed talented," Jiang Yueli whispered. "He can locate the Imperial Stars, and he chooses to let others inherit the teachings from them. Before this, Ye Futian has most likely been given the chance to inherit the Imperial Star to the blind Renhuang." As she said this, she was astonished by his act.

Giving up the teachings of the Great Emperors so that others could inherit them?

He had been so casual about it. Ye Futian also seemed to have the ability to easily locate an Imperial Star. Both points were enough to make their hearts tremble.

Seemingly thinking of something, their gazes shifted towards the direction of Goddess Taihua. The Imperial Star that Ye Futian was communicating with right now was passing on the Way of Rhythm. They then thought of the fact that he had wanted to give up the teachings of an Imperial Star to someone else.

Then, why had he come searching for Goddess Taihua, who was similarly proficient in Rhythmic Sorcery and cultivated the Divine Melody?

The answer was on the tip of their tongues.

They also noticed that Goddess Taihua's facial expression was becoming extremely interesting to look at. She seemed somewhat pale. Clearly, they understood that Goddess Taihua had missed an opportunity just now.

Ye Futian had actually thought of giving up the teachings of the Imperial Star to Goddess Taihua.

He was not trying to court her. He was clearly testing Goddess Taihua's attitude before giving her a great fateful encounter. However, such an encounter had just slipped away from her. Goddess Taihua's distant attitude had caused Ye Futian to give up on his previous thought and instead inherit the teachings of the Imperial Star himself.

They wondered how Goddess Taihua was feeling right now.

Right then, Goddess Taihua had extremely complicated emotions. She wondered why Ye Futian had chosen her.

Why would he give away such a great fateful encounter to a stranger like her?

From the way Ye Futian acted just now, he had the intention to do so. Otherwise, he would not have come looking for her and then returned to inherit the teachings of the Imperial Star.

She was extremely conflicted inside at the moment. Even the top Renhuangs would waver and would not be able to calm down quickly if this occurred to them.

What did a fateful encounter with the Great Emperor signify?

Especially for cultivators like her, it was too important. Moreover, it was an Imperial Star that had the Way of Rhythm that she was compatible with.

Did she regret her decision?

Of course, she regretted it. How could she not regret it? Those were the teachings of a Great Emperor.

It could be said that no one else was feeling more conflicted than she was at the moment.

Nearby, Ning Hua's expression turned extremely ugly when he saw Goddess Taihua's expression change. He naturally also understood what had transpired.

He looked up at Ye Futian. How did he manage to do it?

It was not just Ning Hua. Everyone wanted to know the answer to this question. As they witnessed Ye Futian bathing in the divine halo, the cultivators walked over towards where he was and looked at the silhouette in the sky. If communicating with one Imperial Star was a coincidence, suppose he managed to do so with a second Imperial Star?

In this starry sky, there was actually someone who could locate Imperial Stars and casually communicate with them. The crowd naturally knew what this meant!
