450: Chapter 450 The Heavenly Emperor (15)

An supreme Imperial Might that made myriad Dao submit descended from the Nine Heavens without warning.

The Heavenly Martial Sacred Dynasty, along with the surrounding hundreds of millions of miles of space, instantly solidified under the shroud of this Imperial Might.

The mysterious Quasi-Emperor, who was about to self-destruct and escape, froze completely.

The madness and determination on his face, at this moment, turned into deep fear and despair.

His proud Quasi-Emperor Law, in the face of this vast Imperial Might, was completely suppressed before even a hint of resistance could arise.

He was like a fly stuck in a spiderweb, unable to move.

Before the main hall, after sensing this familiar aura, the Empress and the Five Ancestors' solemnity and killing intent instantly dissipated, replaced by heartfelt reverence and peace of mind.

They knew the situation was settled.

Everyone in the Heavenly Martial Sacred Dynasty was terrified, their livers and gallbladders splitting, by this sudden, supreme pressure that far surpassed a Quasi-Emperor.

They couldn't even conjure the thought of kneeling, only able to feel this mighty power that could dominate their lives and deaths in the most humble posture.

In his extreme fear, the mysterious Quasi-Emperor finally understood what he was about to face.

The Ye Family's truly living Ancient Ancestor.

He also understood what a miserable fate awaited him after being captured alive.

The astonishing plan of the 'Adult' behind him absolutely could not be revealed because of him.

A final madness flashed in the mysterious Quasi-Emperor's eyes.

Just before his Divine Soul was completely sealed by the Great Emperor Law, he used a forbidden secret technique he had long prepared.

He intended to undergo 'Soldier Disintegration'.

Not to escape, but to erase all traces of his existence from this world in the most thorough manner.

Boom!

A black destructive fire erupted from the Origin of his Divine Soul.

This flame ignored all Laws and restraints, madly burning his Dao Fruit, his Divine Soul, and everything he was, in an irreversible manner.

"Want to die? Before this Emperor, you don't even have the right to die."

An ancient and majestic voice resounded from the Nine Heavens.

The vast Imperial Might instantly condensed into a colossal Law hand that blotted out the sky, grabbing down towards the Quasi-Emperor who was about to completely undergo 'Soldier Disintegration'.

However, it was still a step too late.

The Quasi-Emperor's 'Soldier Disintegration' was too fast and too resolute.

When the Law hand descended, it only grasped a trace of residual aura, almost nonexistent, left after his 'Soldier Disintegration'.

That aura instantly turned into nothingness under the crushing force of the Imperial Might.

A Quasi-Emperor was thus utterly destroyed, leaving no trace behind.

A hint of regret and solemnity flashed across the faces of the Empress and the Five Ancestors.

The clue was broken.

Among everyone present, only Ye Yun's eyes showed an extremely subtle change at that moment.

Just at the last instant of the Quasi-Emperor's 'Soldier Disintegration', just before that trace of Origin aura was about to completely dissipate.

His third Saint Eye between his brows, the Saint Heart in his chest, and his pair of Heavy Pupils that could see through falsehoods—these three talents perfectly superimposed at this moment, operating at their peak simultaneously.

He caught it.

He clearly captured that fleeting, most core, Origin aura that had not been completely erased by the power of 'Soldier Disintegration'.

That aura, he was extremely familiar with.

Liu Yan's face, filled with disdain and arrogance, flashed through Ye Yun's mind instantly.

It couldn't be wrong.

The Origin of this aura was from the same source as the unique Cultivation Technique aura of the Liu Family.

This mysterious Quasi-Emperor came from the Liu Family.

Clue after clue rapidly connected in his mind.

The Liu Family's resolute and abnormal behavior when breaking off the engagement.

The strange power within the Saintess's body, which shared the same Origin as his cursed shackles.

And this Liu Family Quasi-Emperor's interception.

Behind all of this, pointed to a conclusion that weighed heavily on his heart.

The Liu Family was involved with that mysterious 'Eerie' power.

And the Liu Family was a direct subordinate force of the 'Central Heavenly Court'.

Would the Central Heavenly Court be completely unaware of this?

Was it their incompetence, unable to detect it, or were they deliberately concealing it, or even... colluding?

The situation in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces was far more complex than he had imagined.

This water was much deeper than he had anticipated.

Ye Yun suppressed the turmoil in his heart; he knew that this matter absolutely could not be publicized here.

The Heavenly Martial Sacred Dynasty had too many eyes and ears; once the news leaked, it would alert the enemy, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

He must return to the Ye Family and inform the highest echelons of his discoveries.

As the mysterious Quasi-Emperor underwent 'Soldier Disintegration', the Imperial Might that enveloped heaven and earth slowly retracted and disappeared after confirming there was no longer any threat at the scene.

A crisis that could have overthrown the Heavenly Martial Sacred Dynasty was thus resolved.

The Ruler of the Sacred Dynasty and all the surviving subjects, after experiencing despair and rebirth, looked at the Empress, the Five Ancestors, and the calm young Imperial Son, filled only with reverence and gratitude.

They knew that from this day forward, the fate of the Heavenly Martial Sacred Dynasty would be completely bound to the Ye Family and this young Imperial Son.

...

At the time of departure, the Ye Family A group of people (group of people) prepared to set off for home.

The Heavenly Martial Saintess, after a short period of recuperation, was largely fine.

She changed into an elegant long dress and came before Ye Yun's flying boat.

Her pretty face no longer showed the previous paleness and weakness; instead, it was flushed with excitement.

She looked at the departing young man, her heart filled with adoration and admiration.

Under everyone's gaze, she mustered her courage.

She bowed deeply to Ye Yun, her voice trembling slightly.

"His Highness, the Imperial Son."

"I wonder... do I have the qualifications to become your follower?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

The Ruler of the Sacred Dynasty and the Ye Family's Great Saints were both stunned.

They hadn't expected the Saintess to make such a bold request in public.

Following the Imperial Son was not just an honor; it also meant she would give up her Saintess identity and dedicate her entire life to Ye Yun.

Ye Yun stopped.

He slowly turned around, his calm gaze falling upon the Saintess.

His third Saint Eye quietly opened.

In just an instant, he saw through the Saintess's bone structure, Aptitude, and Luck.

Profound Water Saint Body.

Excellent Aptitude, tenacious Heart-Nature, a talent worth nurturing.

Ye Yun did not answer immediately.

He just gave her a deep look.

The Saintess held her breath.

She nervously awaited the answer that would determine her life's destiny.

However, Ye Yun said nothing more, turned, and stepped onto the flying boat.

A calm voice slowly emanated from within the flying boat, drifting into the Saintess's ears.

"When you can, by your own power, step into the Saint Realm, then come to the Ye Family to find me."

...

The Ye Family's flying boat transformed into a streak of light, returning to the Family's ancestral land.

Ye Yun made no stops, heading directly to the deepest part of the ancestral land's forbidden zone.

There, the Divine Thought projections of the Empress, the Five Ancestors, and several other Great Emperor Ancient Ancestors who had been alerted, were already waiting.

"Yun'er, you did very well on this trip."

An Ancient Ancestor spoke first, their tone full of praise.

Ye Yun respectfully saluted his elders, without a trace of arrogance or complacency.

He was silent for a moment, then revealed the earth-shattering discovery in his heart.

"Mother, esteemed Ancient Ancestors."

"That Quasi-Emperor who underwent 'Soldier Disintegration'..."

His gaze swept over every supreme expert present, and he calmly stated,

"Came from the Liu Family."
