Chapter 2356: Xi Chiyao

Ye Futian looked at the female Renhuang from the West Imperial Palace and said, "May I ask who you are, Goddess?"

"I am Xi Chiyao from the West Imperial Palace," said the woman.

"Xi Chiyao," mumbled Ye Futian to himself. Behind Xi Chiyao, an elder from West Imperial Palace said, "Goddess Chiyao is a descendant of the West Emperor and is the first heir of West Imperial Palace."

When Ye Futian heard the elder say this, he had a strange expression. Back during the battle against the Lost Clan, he had not seen Xi Chiyao. Another cultivator had participated in the battle. She most likely was not in the Original Realm back then. After Princess Donghuang gave the order, the various forces of the Divine Prefecture must have sent more of their members down to the Lower Worlds. Only then did Xi Chiyao come here.

Xi Chiyao also claimed to be the descendant of the West Emperor and the first heir of the West Imperial Palace. Her status was extremely noble. From the looks of it, the other party also placed great importance on this matter.

In reality, Ye Futian did not know much about Xi Chiyao's status in the West Sea Domain. Xi Chiyao had already been famous for many years there. She was born into an extraordinary background. She was the direct descendant of the West Emperor. When she received her family inheritance, she awakened the bloodline of the West Emperor and had extremely high compatibility with its power. She displayed unparalleled talent and was a perfect fit for the teachings that the West Emperor had left behind. Hence, she was declared to be the first heir of the West Imperial Palace.

If it weren't for the fact that such a huge change was occurring in the Original Realm, it would have been impossible for a person of her standing to come to the Lower Worlds.

There was a huge commotion in the various major worlds. A storm was surging in the Original Realm. The saying that the changes of the worlds would begin in the Original Realm had been passed down in the Divine Prefecture. Hence, various forces of the Divine Prefecture had arrived here. She, the Goddess of the West Imperial Palace and its first heir, had also arrived.

As for why she had come to invite Ye Futian, it was actually because she wanted to test him. Based on the investigation carried out by the West Imperial Palace on Ye Futian, they discovered that there were suspicious elements regarding Ye Futian's background. He originated from the Nine States in the Lower Worlds. However, there were many parts of his journey up to the present day that were unclear.

As the Goddess of the West Imperial Palace, Xi Chiyao had a thorough view of the talents of the cultivation world. Ordinary people might rely on extremely tenacious will, faith, and chance to advance forward, but it was impossible for them to have a smooth journey all the way. Ye Futian had developed too rapidly to the point that he could subdue the various Proud Sons of Heaven. He did not appear to be an ordinary figure.

If that was the case, it was likely that he was not from the Lower Worlds.

According to their investigation, Ye Futian's birthplace seemed to have vanished completely. The records of his youth were erased just like that.

There were many mysterious points regarding Ye Futian. He seemed to hide many secrets. He also controlled the Ziwei Segmentum and the Four Corner Village and bore the teachings of several Great Emperors. Hence, Xi Chiyao had come over to the Heavenly Mandate Academy to win over Ye Futian.

Ye Futian revealed a look of deep thought as he looked at Xi Chiyao and said, "Goddess Chiyao, you mean to say you will agree to any condition I put forward?"

Ye Futian was smiling as he looked at Xi Chiyao. Her temperament was extraordinary. There seemed to be a formless glow around her figure. It was as though divine light circled around her. Ordinary people would be ashamed of themselves and would not dare to approach someone with such temperament.

When Xi Chiyao saw Ye Futian's gaze scanning her, she revealed a strange look. The cultivators of the West Imperial Palace frowned slightly. Was Ye Futian after the Goddess herself?

"Renhuang Ye, what are your conditions?" Xi Chiyao asked. Her expression was normal, and she appeared calm.

Ye Futian slowly said, "Since we are forming an alliance, we naturally need to show our sincerity. Goddess Chiyao has extraordinary talent. Would you be willing to join the Heavenly Mandate Academy to cultivate with me as a member? If the West Imperial Palace is willing to allow me to inherit the teachings of the West Emperor, I will not let Goddess get the short end of the stick. I will guide you in your cultivation and give you the opportunity to inherit the teachings of the Great Emperors that I have obtained."

As he said this, a formless aura emanated from the bodies of the cultivators of the West Imperial Palace. They frowned, and their auras instantly turned solemn.

"So presumptuous," chided an elder as he coldly snorted.

Goddess Chiyao was the first heir of the West Imperial Palace. Ye Futian wanted Goddess to join the Heavenly Mandate Academy and cultivate? She had to follow him?

He also claimed that he would not let Goddess get the short end of the stick and would guide her in her cultivation?

Ye Futian spoke with such arrogance.

However, the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Academy had indifferent expressions, as though it was a matter of course. These cultivators of the West Imperial Palace had trespassed in the Heavenly Mandate Academy. They wanted Ye Futian to join the West Imperial Palace to cultivate. They also wanted to form an alliance with the Heavenly Mandate Academy. If that was the case, there was nothing to be said about the condition Ye Futian suggested. If he joined the West Imperial Palace to cultivate, Goddess Chiyao would likewise join the Heavenly Mandate Academy.

Otherwise, wouldn't Ye Futian be inferior to the other party?

"How is this considered presumptuous? Futian is the heir of several Great Emperors. He defeated a disciple of the Devil Emperor and an heir of the Ancient God Clan. He is also the College Chief of the Heavenly Mandate Academy and Palace Lord of Ziwei Imperial Palace. How is he inferior to Goddess Chiyao?" Renhuang Chen said. His tone sounded displeased. Since the other party had come here, how could they not show any sincerity? How was this forming an alliance? They clearly wanted to claim the powers that Ye Futian controlled as their own.

"How can Goddess be compared to Hua Junlai?" an elder of the West Imperial Palace coldly snorted. Ye Futian had defeated Hua Junlai, the heir of the Haotian Clan in the region of the Lost Clan. However, it was apparent that in the eyes of the cultivators of the West Imperial Palace, Hua Junlai was unqualified to be compared to Xi Chiyao.

Xi Chiyao was the first heir of the West Imperial Palace and the top genius recognized in the West Sea Domain. She was destined to become the top figure and ruler of the West Sea Domain.

Although Hua Junlai was the heir of the Haotian Clan, he was not the only heir in the clan. Xi Chiyao's standing in the West Sea Domain could not be compared to Hua Junlai's standing in the Nantian Domain.

"Hua Junlai is but a nobody who lost to Futian. However, Ye Futian managed to suppress him even though his own cultivation was a Plane lower than that of Hua Junlai. So what if Goddess Chiyao is even more outstanding than Hua Junlai?" Renhuang Chen replied indifferently. The other party's tone was arrogant, so he naturally did not mince his words either. Ye Futian was the heir chosen by Great Emperor Ziwei. He would not be inferior to the heir of the West Emperor.

In ancient times, Great Emperor Ziwei was one of the strongest Great Emperors. He was an existence that stood at the peak. Several Great Emperors were under his command.

Renhuang Chen was not holding back when he said this. The members of the West Imperial Palace believed that Goddess Chiyao was peerless. However, the members of the Heavenly Mandate Academy did not think so. So what if she was Goddess Chiyao? Before Ye Futian, she was unqualified to act arrogant.

"I wish to hear Renhuang Ye's opinion," Xi Chiyao said as she looked towards Ye Futian.

Ye Futian looked at her and said, "I have already stated my opinion. Could it be that Goddess is not willing to join the Heavenly Mandate Academy and cultivate together with me?"

When Xi Chiyao heard Ye Futian's words, she actually smiled. She had a face that could launch a thousand ships. Many cultivators of the West Imperial Palace were somewhat mesmerized. Xi Chiyao rarely revealed such a smile.

This Ye Futian was truly presumptuous.

"As expected of Renhuang Ye. You are exactly as I have heard," Xi Chiyao said as she smiled. "Renhuang Ye, it is fine if you want me to cultivate with you. However, my answer will depend on your skill."
