The Legend of Futian - Chapter 306
Chapter 306: Duel
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Countless eyes from the Nandou Nation looked to the disabled Emperor Luo and Minister Hua. It didn’t feel real. There was no way to fight back. With one word, Ye Futian disabled an emperor and minister.
They inhaled sharply and looked to Ye Futian. He was so domineering in his revenge. Back then, Emperor Luo hadn’t given him any way to fight back. Now, he made Emperor Luo feel the same despair.
Everyone thought that Ye Futian would resolve his problem with the Nandou Nation after his fight with Luo Junlin. However, he didn’t give Emperor Luo any shred of hope, just like what Emperor Luo had done before.
Ye Futian had thought about returning with absolute power. However, the assassination told him that Luo Junlin and Emperor Luo still wanted him dead, even when he was in the Eastern Barren Territory. Thus, he decided not to play with them anymore. Since they acted that way, it was easier.
He’d wanted to use the Cottage’s power to challenge Luo Junlin. After killing him, he would kill Emperor Luo with the Cangye Kingdom and the other six emperors to fully resolve the matters with Nandou. With the Cottage present, no forces of the Eastern Barren Territory would get involved. However, things didn’t go as he’d planned. The other six emperors had betrayed them but the Nobles of Ancient Loulan listened to him. This way, things were even easier.
“He’s so serious. It seems that what happened really is a thorn in his chest,” Luo Fan murmured in the crowd. He’d never seen Ye Futian like this before.
“Imagine if it happened to you,” Xue Ye whispered. Since they’d come to Nandou Nation, they naturally knew what had happened before. It was unforgivable for an emperor to bully a youth.
“Yeah, I’ll be harsher.” Luo Fan nodded.
Gu Dongliu looked calmly to the palace. Ye Futian had a cold aura now. His attractive features emanated a cold cruelness, similar to Gu Dongliu. Their teacher had once said that being murderous would hurt themselves. However, he also lived by another phrase: kill all evil.
Emperor Luo was the ruler of the Nandou Nation but treated Ye Futian so horribly. He clearly was an evil person to play with a youth’s fate. He didn’t have any pity at all. An emperor like that deserved to be killed. Even if Ye Futian lost today, Gu Dongliu would have killed Emperor Luo.
There was so much evil in the world that one couldn’t rid it all. But since it happened to someone beside him, he would act as the judgement and rid the evil.
Ye Futian looked at Emperor Luo with no pity; there was only coldness.
“Did you think this day would come when you sent out that decree?” he asked.
Emperor Luo was still trembling. Of course he didn’t think that one day, Minister Zuo would be right. This was a calamity for the Nandou Nation. He didn’t believe in fate but in the end, fate still played him.
“Do you regret it?” Ye Futian gazed at Emperor Luo and Minister Hua. An emperor and minister were being toyed by a youth.
Regret? Of course they regretted it. Everything was over. Minister Hua still remembered the scene when Ye Futian stepped foot inside the Nandou Clan. He had been sitting high up, watching the brilliant youth burst in. Two short years later, it was the other who was playing with his fate now.
“Can we start now?” a dark voice said.
Ye Futian looked over to Luo Junlin. The aura around Luo Junlin was chaotic right now. He witnessed everything but couldn’t change anything. Back then, he was the high and mighty crown prince. His single utterance could determine Ye Futian’s fate. Now, Ye Futian had the Cottage and many Nobles to work for him. He could determine the Nandou Nation’s fate.
Now, only Luo Junlin had the opportunity to kill Ye Futian.
Ye Futian was calm. His white robe and black hair fluttered despite the lack of wind. At this moment, the chaotic world seemed to quiet down. Only these two facing each other existed.
Luo Junlin was a legendary crown prince of the Nandou Nation. He had double life spirits and became the crown prince as a youth. He was the future emperor of Nandou and worshipped by countless. Some people were born to be great. He was one of them.
He’d definitely displayed his brilliance before. He was the first of the Hundred Lands to make people from the Eastern Barren Territory come and take him as a disciple. It had been such an honor when the Royal Xuan Temple came for him that day. Every emperor came to congratulate him.
If Ye Futian didn’t exist, Luo Junlin would absolutely become the legend of the Nandou Nation.
However, the heavens seemed to purposely create an opponent for him. The youth from Donghai City had rejected the decree and fled for his life. He’d entered the Cangye Kingdom. When he’d returned, he stole the spotlight of the Tingfeng Banquet with his staff and dharma. Even though Luo Junlin had been accepted by the Royal Xuan Temple, he still couldn’t steal Ye Futian’s thunder.
After that, forces of the Eastern Barren Territory went to Cangye to fight for people. Apparently, Luo Junlin and Xirou were there too.
The battle between Luo Junlin and Ye Futian seemed to be fated, destined since their first meeting at the Donghai Academy. Luo Junlin was royalty but Ye Futian displayed the aura of an emperor. Thus, they stood before each other today.
Ye Futian waved his hand. The Silver Snow Guards around him retreated, emptying the space. Only the two stood proudly above the Nandou Nation. A wild aura burst forth. Noble intent exploded.
Luo Junlin had entered the Arcana Plane one year ago. Now, he was in the second level. Though he was only in the second of the nine levels of the Arcana Plane, he was still four levels higher than Ye Futian at the Seventh-level Dharma Plane. There was also the big difference of plane.
How could Ye Futian make up for this? Even now, Luo Junlin couldn’t understand where Ye Futian got the confidence from, other than having the Cottage behind him.
The difference in plane was also why Zhe Song, Qin Li, and the others thought Ye Futian would lose if the Cottage didn’t interfere. Luo Junlin of the Royal Xuan Temple wasn’t useless.
He wasn’t a regular cultivator of the Arcana Plane. A regular Arcana cultivator without noble fate from the Ancient Barren World would be much weaker. Faced with someone with noble intent, the difference in plane would be wiped out.
The next moment, Luo Junlin released his dharma. It was a huge stone phoenix dozens of meters long. It pressed down on the sky with terrifying red light streaking across its surface. Flames flowed through the brilliant feathers like lava. One could feel various types of noble intent from Luo Junlin.
He had twin spirits. The phoenix and stone figure were dharmas created from his twin spirits. The moment they were released, Ye Futian felt scalding heat and horrible pressure.
Spiritual Qi of the world flowed violently towards Luo Junlin’s body and the stone fire phoenix. At this moment, Luo Junlin was like a true king ruling the world.
“So powerful.” Countless eyes fell upon Luo Junlin. Ye Futian had disabled his father today, pressing down everything. Right now, Luo Junlin probably had fury burning like the phoenix. His eyes seemed to contain fire as he stared at Ye Futian.
Horrible power weighed down on Ye Futian. Countless eyes fell upon him, watching the handsome figure stand facing the wind. The next moment, dazzling light shot out. It was his noble fate.
The red fire noble fate and purple lightning fate danced and roared wildly in the air. After that was sharp golden fate, heavy earthen fate, green wooden fate, a ripping gale, and extremely icy frost intent.
Seven beams of colored light rose right into the clouds. Ye Futian was now bathed in full attribute noble aura. He was young but he was like a Noble. His body seemed frail but was extremely impressive.
Qin Li, Chu Yaoyao, Qian Shanmu, Qin Mengruo, and the others all looked at him. His talent was truly monstrous. No wonder he’d broken so many records of the Ancient Barren World and was invited personally by Gu Dongliu. But could his talent make up for the difference in plane?
Boom! An extremely wild aura burst from Ye Futian as he released his dharma. The horrible apparition of the Divine Ape appeared behind him. It was covered in shocking light. Gold and dirt-yellow light flowed across. It also glimmered with purple electricity. The powerful Divine Ape’s body was like a dragon. It also had dazzling golden feathers behind him that covered the sky.
The wings should be from the golden Roc but it transformed in Ye Futian’s dharma. It was huge and beautiful, fitting perfectly with the Divine Ape.
One’s impression of the dharma was that it was beautiful and powerful. It seemed to contain many top forms. Ye Futian’s body seemed to meld into the dharma too, as well as various noble fates.
“This dharma…” Many people were speechless. His power seemed untouchable.
“Junior hasn’t had a true fight since entering the Cottage. We’ll be able to see his true abilities today,” Luo Fan said, smiling. Ye Futian was well-known throughout the Eastern Barren Territory. However, he’d used rhythmic sorcery against Qian Shanmu and instantly defeated Qin Mang.
Today’s battle with Luo Junlin would allow them to finally see Ye Futian’s combat ability.
Gu Dongliu stared forward. He was excited to see Ye Futian challenge an Arcana cultivator from the Royal Xuan Temple as a Seventh-level Dharma Plane.
Luo Junlin stepped forward. The stone phoenix flapped its wings. Soon after, sharp meteorites appeared in the sky. Fire wrapped around the meteorites, covering the sky and blocking the sun.
“Die,” Luo Junlin uttered coldly. His voice was filled with murderous intent.
This spell was the Meteorite Attack.
The moment he spoke, countless sharp flaming meteorites fell from the sky. A wind spell followed, wrapping around the mountain-like boulders and hurling them towards Ye Futian.
Ye Futian looked up. Each meteorite was thousands of pounds and had sharp points at the bottom. It would be horrible if he was hit.
Chapter 307: Combat Ability
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ye Futian reached out. Wind and thunder converged in his palm. A horrible gale wrapped around and purple lightning danced. Even his eyes seemed to shine with purple light. Wild Spiritual Qi formed a frightening image in his palms. It spun like a windstorm. A shocking spell was about to be born.
“This…” Everyone discovered with surprise that two different spells emerged from Ye Futian’s hands. A horrible windstorm was created on his left hand. On his right hand, a terrible lightning dragon was forming. It seemed to have been carved. Endless lightning transformed into a chain that swung towards the falling meteorites, locking them in lightning.
The wind and lightning dragon was still growing wildly.
“Our junior can inscribe?” Xue Ye’s eyes flashed. Ye Futian used his spiritual energy and powerful sense of Spiritual Qi to inscribe in the air without an inscriber’s pen and paper. He released a spell that was above his plane.
An inscriber who could inscribe in the air was similar to a summoner. When their spiritual energy and sense of Spiritual Qi were powerful enough, they could inscribe spells in the air. Of course, it would be much slower. Casting a spell of the same level could be instantaneous. But to inscribe a spell above one’s level, one needed to gather stronger Spiritual Qi and control it with extreme spiritual energy. Any mistake could cause the entire spell to fail.
Boom… Extremely terrible weight descended under Luo Junlin’s control. Instead of dodging the attack, Ye Futian gathered his spell.
He was crazy.
Ye Futian stepped in the air and welcomed Luo Junlin’s spell. Then he threw his hand forward. A real dragon and elephant seemed to roar. This hit landed squarely on the sharp boulder. The next moment, a purple dragon appeared. It filled the entire sky and wrapped around all the falling meteorites. A true dragon appeared as well. It ran past, crushing everything.
“Thunder Dragon Spell, Dragon Elephant Roar martial arts technique,” Xue Ye said. He’d read tens of thousands of books and knew millions of spells. He’d transcribed practically every spell in the Book Cave of the Cottage.
The spell Ye Futian used, Thunder Dragon Spell, was in the Arcana Plane. The Dragon Elephant Roar was a powerful martial arts technique. He had combined martial arts and sorcery, casting both at the same time. They complemented each other and created even more power. The overlapped attack was much stronger than a scattered attack. The falling meteorites instantly shattered or cracked.
Now, the spell in Ye Futian’s left hand was activated. A horrible wind swept past, destroying everything. The meteorites in the sky all turned to dust.
“Nice,” Luo Fan praised. Ye Futian’s reaction was practically perfect. There was a big difference in plane but he’d resolved the attack. He was flawless in both sorcery and martial arts. Added to his Full Attribute talent, he was a genius talent. Luo Fan felt some pressure as the senior brother.
Qian Shanmu, Qin Mengruo, and the others all watched seriously as well. They were slightly surprised. It was their first time seeing Ye Futian fight with his full ability. Qin Li had said that Ye Futian had never proved himself in battle. Today, they saw his combat ability. He’d displayed his monstrous talent in one attack.
Luo Junlin looked coldly at Ye Futian. Since Ye Futian dared to challenge him, he would naturally be able to take more than one hit. Luo Junlin was prepared for this.
Wild flame Spiritual Qi gathered. The stone phoenix flapped its wings and flew out.
Lava-like flames flowed through the air towards Ye Futian, burning the sky red. It
seemed able to burn everything.
Liquid firelight appeared in the vast sky. Ye Futian’s surroundings were all covered. He was now in a fiery red world. Luo Junlin’s dharma seemed to come to life and attack endlessly.
Ye Futian released his sun dharma. It hung high in the sky. There seemed to be a divine tree inside the sun with twisted roots. He himself seemed to transform into a furnace that could burn everything. Runes of fire wrapped around him. He released his wild noble intent and stood there, watching the incoming fire.
Lava-like flames dropped onto him. He seemed to be inside the sun, feeling the horrible destructive power. Even though he cultivated fire spells, he still couldn’t overlook this attack. But his own power and the flame intent wove with the sun dharma to create a shield. The divine tree extended, absorbing the incoming flame power. The sun grew more dazzling and gradually expanded.
Luo Junlin’s fire attack was ineffective against Ye Futian. It even felt like it was strengthening Ye Futian’s fire.
Ye Futian stepped forward and passed through the fire. He went towards Luo Junlin; he was so overbearing and ignored everything.
The stone phoenix flapped its wings hurriedly. A spell shot towards Ye Futian like a sharp knife. Ye Futian slapped forward. Like a burning handprint, he swept past everything and burned the sharp knife.
Many people were shocked. Luo Junlin’s fire attack seemed to be helping him instead.
The stone phoenix returned to Luo Junlin’s side and didn’t continue attacking. Luo Junlin stared at the approaching Ye Futian. Animosity grew. No matter how powerful Ye Futian was, Luo Junlin was in the Arcana Plane and didn’t fear the Dharma Plane. The stone phoenix dharma seemed to meld into him. Beautiful wings appeared behind him.
Ye Futian stood in the sky and looked down on Luo Junlin. His eyes were wild.
“Thousand Mirror Images.” As soon as Ye Futian spoke, a water elemental spell was born. It transformed into countless mirrors that reflected upon Ye Futian. Then he moved.
In a moment, thousands of images appeared around Luo Junlin. They were all reflections of Ye Futian; it was impossible to determine which was real. Even worse, the sky within range of the spell turned into a mysterious mist. It covered his aura so Luo Junlin couldn’t use it to find Ye Futian.
As Ye Futian moved, the countless images in the sky surrounded Luo Junlin. It was dizzying.
Luo Junlin’s wings flapped and he rose up.
Boom. Ye Futian cast a spell that transformed into a mountain that smashed down at Luo Junlin. Under the Thousand Mirror Images spell, endless mountains seemed to be coming at him.
Luo Junlin’s wings turned into blades and swept past. Wind tore through the sky, passing through the mountains. They were apparitions instead of a real attack but he had to clear them all.
At the same time, Luo Junlin used a spell to smash the illusory images but his spell went straight past. The Thousand Mirror Images was a water elemental spell. It had no attacking power but was also unable to be destroyed directly.
Boom… With a huge boom, the solid attack came and shattered under Luo Junlin’s spell. But at the same time, lightning flashed in the sky.
Crack. Purple light filled the sky and the lightning dragon unfurled. The Lightning
Dragon spell erupted once again. Thousands of dragons seemed to go to Luo Junlin. His expression was ugly. With the Thousand Mirror Images spell, every attack multiplied. They were fake but he had to react. Otherwise, the real attack could hurt him.
A boundless storm gathered around him, enveloping him and tearing apart everything else.
The true lightning dragon descended upon the windstorm. Lightning and wind intertwined. Luo Junlin’s windstorm continued rising, trying to escape from the spell.
Ye Futian wouldn’t allow it. Endless vines curled towards him. At the same time, the Dragon Elephant Roar was activated and charged towards Luo Junlin.
Trapped by the spell, Luo Junlin could only defend instead of attack. He was in the Arcana Plane but was restricted by Ye Futian. This shocked many people.
Ye Futian’s every attack was filled with noble intent and reached the Arcana Plane. It was as if he was truly in the Arcana Plane, rather than Dharma.
Qin Li stared at the battlefield, looking uncomfortable. He’d wondered if Luo Junlin could kill Ye Futian but the latter’s abilities were beyond his expectation.
Luo Junlin was restricted in every aspect and his features twisted. He stopped trying to burst free. Endless Spiritual Qi gathered around him. His dharma entwined with his body. Bits of stone appeared. He seemed to be turning into a stone figure and kept expanding. Soon, a stone giant more than 100 meters tall appeared. Its surface burned with horrible flames. However, the giant’s eyes were Luo Junlin’s.
He didn’t fight back and just allowed the spells to fall on him. The giant stone man shook and the spells kept damaging the surface rock but couldn’t hurt him. The broken stone skin quickly recovered as if it was undying.
“How can you defeat me?” Luo Junlin roared. He swept his arms across, almost filling the entire sky. But at that moment, inside the Thousand Mirror Images, a staff appeared before Ye Futian’s might body. It kept enlarging.
The Divine Ape melded with Ye Futian’s body. He grasped the staff with immense strength. Unparalleled power gathered in his body.
Everyone saw a beautiful scene. Inside the spell, thousands of figures twirled the staff at once. The wind and clouds howled; the world changed.
This scene was too beautiful.
Chapter 308: The Death of Luo Junlin
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Shining with the light of Divine Ape’s figure, Ye Futian played out thousands of illusory figures with his long staff. He had a very mighty aura.
Luo Junlin was in the sky too. While observing the countless illusory figures, he internalized his dharma into his body. Soon, a good amount of magma erupted from the crevices on his enormous rock-like body. He reached out his large rocky hand and a horrible noble intent soared into the sky. He folded his hands and roared angrily. Numerous flaming meteorites fell from the sky, turning the entire sky red.
Bang, Bang. Some of those meteorites, falling down in a certain place, were all crushed. Luo Junlin looked there and found one of the thousand figures was real. Only the real one could have such a strong force.
Simultaneously, the thousands of figures targeted the rocky body. Ye Futian kept twirling his staff. Spiritual Qi of the world converged like terrible waves, getting strong and stronger.
Luo Junlin still looked indifferent. The world around him changed, creating continuous heavy pounds. The strong cultivators in the Arcana Plane could resonate better with the natural world. The plane was also known as “nature and man as one.”
Luo Junlin lifted his palms and pounced toward Ye Futian’s real body. The flames on his palms dazzled like a Noble Handprint, extending endlessly and crushing everything. Ye Futian suffered the horrible gravity pressure brought by the handprint. Clearly, Luo Junlin was oppressing him with a gravity spell. Worse was that the flaming rocks from the sky kept falling down on him, seeming to bury him in this space.
“The Royal Xuan Handprint.” The top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory were all surprised. The Royal Xuan Handprint was an aggressive spell combining martial arts with spells; it was very fierce.
As long as the handprint was thrown out, the target would be trapped in a space of extremely scary gravity. Everything around would fall down on the target automatically. Right now, Ye Futian was the target at the center of the attacks.
Countless flaming meteorites crushed fiercely toward Ye Futian but he seemed to not be worried at all. His body seemed to have a magical rhythm. Every blow of his staff shattered the incoming meteorites.
Though he hadn’t reached the Arcana Plane, Ye Futian still had the power to gather the power in the world and resonate with the natural world as a strong cultivator in Arcana Plane could—nature and man as one.
“What a fierce attack!” People were amazed by Ye Futian’s dancing body and magical rhythm full of strength.
The flaming meteorites all disappeared but Luo Junlin’s large handprint followed. The entire sky darkened. Endless horrible pressure crushed down like a coffin to bury Ye Futian.
Suddenly, Ye Futian felt like there was a king in that handprint sitting high on the throne and scorning him. The scene didn’t stir Ye Futian’s heart. Taking advantage of the time, he threw out his staff to rip the sky apart. All of a sudden, the Divine Ape roared, shaking the world.
Rumble… There was a horrible explosion. Then the huge palm print was split from the middle. Huge meteorites kept blasting but a very strong force came down to Ye Futian’s staff. The staff trembled. His body was forced back.
Luo Junlin’s ferocious eyes stared at Ye Futian. He slowly folded his palms and endless Spiritual Qi gathered around him. Another wave of boulders fell down from the sky.
A giant illusory stone figure appeared behind Luo Junlin like the king of stone.
A second handprint was sent out. At this time, two king figures loomed simultaneously over the numerous falling meteorites, pouncing toward Ye Futian at the same time. He Yulu looked at this battle indifferently. This time, Luo Junlin would definitely kill Ye Futian.
The ape roared angrily. Ye Futian’s aura grew more fierce and aggressive. When the attack came, he waved his staff and split the air. A crack appeared in the sky. The meteorites and handprint were totally demolished.
With another roar, more illusory king figures appeared in the sky and sent out more handprints. By comparison, Ye Futian’s body was very small. Though he had the Divine Ape as a guard, he seemed to be almost buried.
This time, Ye Futian stood still. His dharma broke out into the sky. An extremely enormous figure of an ape appeared behind him. With seemly endless strength, he twirled his staff and auras of the world all gathered to the staff. No matter how strong the attacks were, he just stood still in place. The noble handprints came down upon him but all shattered. He just couldn’t be defeated.
Poof… People were shocked to find that Luo Junlin spat out a mouthful of blood. His body was burning too. An incomparably frightening aura loomed and rose up. He folded his palms again.
Blood kept rushing out from his mouth. The whole world was shaking. Countless nobles appeared in the sky.
“How can it be?” The top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory were all stunned by this scene. This was the true Royal Xuan Handprint but only cultivators of the Noble Plane could use the Royal Xuan Handprint. Those below the Noble Plane could only create the embryonic form as Luo Junlin had at first. It was the limit.
However, the kings in the sky were all real, looking down at Ye Futian. The Spiritual Qi around Luo Junlin all resonated with his aura. Horrible airflow came and trapped Ye Futian in the midair.
“So powerful.” At this moment, all the spectators looked up at the heart-shaking scene. The kings in the sky glared at Ye Futian, seeming to crush him beneath their feet.
“Very good!” Qin Li grinned hideously. He glanced at people of the Cottage, wondering whether they would help Ye Futian. If they acted, they would be the enemy of the Royal Xuan Temple. But certainly, if Ye Futian won this battle, the Royal Xuan Temple would not be happy either. The plight the Cottage faced now was what they had been plotting.
The age of the Cottage and the College should come to its end.
Gu Dongliu’s group watched the battle. Junior Ye had done his best. His every blow was of the Arcana Plane. His dharma helped him become stronger and stronger. Even the world was shaken by his staff. But unexpectedly, Luo Junlin used the Royal Xuan Handprint, risking getting hurt or ending his own life. But if he succeeded, this blow could be fatal to Ye Futian.
Emperor Luo and Minister Hua closely stared at the front. Die. They’d been disabled but they still wanted to witness the death of Ye Futian.
In the vast space, countless eyes stared at this scene. The sky was chaotic, the airflow was terrible, and the power was destructive. It had never been expected that the battle could be so fierce.
Ye Futian looked up at those illusory figures. Endless spirit gathered and entered his body. He could feel the threatening pressure in his body. Even at this moment, he didn’t give up. His eyes were extremely calm and fearless.
His staff kept spinning. There was some unknown power growing in his body. His blood seemed to be burning and boiling; his veins and bones were snarling. The ape’s roar and the dragon’s growl shook the ground. A beam of sacred light appeared above Ye Futian and soared into the sky. His noble fate pierced into the sky. Everything in the sky bathed in the light and converged to produce a beam of more dazzling light.
“What is that?” People stared at Ye Futian’s body curiously. His noble fate seemed to be activated, becoming more dazzling and dreadful. At this time, Ye Futian became a true king without the help of noble intent. His body spun and his staff twirled. The sky changed color and his noble fate turned into beams of light. Light rushed into the staff. Then, all the power in the world gathered here as if he was the sovereign of the world.
Bang. Ye Futian stepped heavily in the air while the ape ascended. The staff slashed through the air.
“I’ll kill you!” Luo Junlin raved toward Ye Futian. He spat out more blood. The kings in the sky sent out more threatening handprints, wanting to kill Ye Futian on the spot.
The giant ape and Ye Futian acted as one, raising the staff together. Everywhere the staff swept, those meteorites were shattered. Ye Futian descended above Luo Junlin. He glanced at Luo Junlin indifferently. His staff slashed down. This was the fourth hit of the Nine Heavenly Attacks. The staff slashed down with the Imperial Tactics.
All the dreadful Royal Xuan Handprints were split by the staff. The flaming staff slashed down toward Luo Junlin below.
Seeing the staff getting closer and closer, Luo Junlin’s eyes revealed a hint of despair. The staff loomed and he roared angrily, “I will not accept—”
Bang! The stone figure shattered. Luo Junlin’s body burst into ashes as well, seeming to disappear.
In the sky, only one handsome figure stood there proudly with a mighty illusory figure of an ape behind him. He seemed unshakable as if what people saw was not a strong cultivator in Dharma Plane but an emperor of the world.
The turbulence in the sky dispersed and the meteorites disappeared. Ye Futian withdrew his noble fate so that others could not sense his emperor’s intent. Though he’d activated the Imperial Tactic, he covered that with his noble fate. Therefore, others would regard it as some kind of strong spell.
With rumbles, some meteorites fell onto the imperial palace on the ground. However, people still looked up to the figure in the sky, unwilling to look away.
Luo Junlin was so strong; he even used the Royal Xuan Handprint. Nobles had been everywhere. Everybody thought that Ye Futian would be killed but Ye Futian had killed Luojun with one blow.
Luo Junlin was killed on the spot.
Chapter 309: Ended
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Countless people had gathered outside the Imperial Palace, but there was only a deafening silence at the moment.
Today, in the sky above the Nandou Nation Imperial Palace, prince Luo Junlin battled Ye Futian and was killed.
At this instant, many people from the Nandou Nation recalled the scene when Luo Junlin became a disciple of a powerful cultivator from the Royal Xuan Temple. He was extremely glamorous and various emperors came to Nandou to congratulate him.
Today, however, the legendary prince of the Nandou Nation only managed to make another person famous. He was the unparalleled young man who came from Donghai City and was forced to leave his hometown by Luo Junlin and Emperor Luo. When he returned, many nobles listened to his orders and called him the Son. When his senior stood beside him, nobody from the top forces in the Eastern Barren Territory dared to touch him. He was only in the Dharma Plane and crossed four levels to kill Luo Junlin.
If Luo Junlin could be called a legend, then what about Ye Futian?
“The Nandou Nation is totally over.” Everyone had this thought in their minds. It was already certain that the rulers of the Nandou Nation would change. Emperor Luo was disabled and Luo Junlin was killed. The fate of the Luo Family would be changed completely.
The people from the Nandou Nation looked at Ye Futian, the miraculous young man who came from Donghai City. Two years ago, he defied the emperor’s order and wrote his own fate himself. In the future, he would be the legend of the Nandou Nation. In addition, with his talents, even the vast Eastern Barren Territory would probably also become a stage for him to perform. The young man who looked like an all-powerful emperor when he fought was born extraordinary.
Emperor Luo trembled and his hopeless look gradually turned blank. His son Luo Junlin had been a genius since he was a child and had twin spirits. In reality, this was also true indeed. How many people in the Hundred Lands could win him in the battle just now? However, destiny was just so cruel. Since Luo Junli was so talented, why would a person like Ye Futian exist? Why would such a person be born in Donghai City?
His mind was filled with regret.
If everything could start all over again, he would go to Donghai personally and kill Ye Futian. However, it was already too late to regret at the moment. He regretted, but could not change anything.
At this very moment, he recalled many things in the past. That time, he planned a trap and killed the emperor of Nandou in the Ancient Barren World. Taking away the emperor’s noble fate, he eventually managed to enter the Noble Plane and took over his position, becoming the emperor of a kingdom. He went against god’s will and changed his own destiny. He was not resigned to his fate and changed it himself. In the end, however, everything was still lost. Compared to the young man standing proudly in the air, he seemed so petty at the moment. The emperor was but an ant.
A tear actually appeared at the corner of Emperor Luo’s eye. It was not that he was not strong enough, but instead, he felt that the world was really unfair and everyone’s fate was unpredictable. He had paid a lot to reach the position he was at now. However, his most talented son was killed and he was disabled, and an inevitable death awaited him. Thinking about his entire life, he was not resigned.
He Yulu from the Royal Xuan Temple clenched his fists firmly as his face turned gloomy.
He was unconcerned about Luo Junlin’s death. Although his daughter, He Xirou, had begged him before dying, he had already given Luo Junlin a chance. As long as Luo Junlin could kill Ye Futian in the battle, he would try his best to protect him. However, he failed himself and did not manage to kill Ye Futian.
Compared to Luo Junlin’s death, he was more concerned about the fact that Ye Futian was still standing there in one piece. Not only was he alive, but he also displayed an astonishing combat power and attracted everyone’s admiration.
Luo Junlin was his disciple, so he obviously knew how strong his disciple was. Even though Luo Junlin was weaker than those top geniuses, he did not know if any other young person in the Eastern Barren Territory could cross four levels and kill Luo Junlin like what Ye Futian had done. At least, he did not know such a person.
This was the best chance they had, and yet Luo Junlin did not manage to kill Ye Futian. In the future, even if the Royal Xuan Temple wanted to take revenge, they could not fight against the Cottage.
How about another assassination?
That depended on whether they could pay the price, and the answer was obvious.
“Let’s go.” Turning around, He Yulu walked away and showed no signs of wanting to stay. Luo Junlin was already dead. What did the other issues of the Nandou Nation have to do with him?
The people of the Nandou Nation watched as the cultivators from the Royal Xuan Temple took their leave. They knew that the Luo royal family was totally done for.
The Royal Xuan Temple abandoned them and left. Luo Junlin was killed, but they did not say anything at all. Nobody knew the exact reason, but at least they knew that the people from the Royal Xuan Temple were weaker than the people in Ye Futian’s clan. Previously, Gu Dongliu had warned the people from the Royal Xuan Temple to back away, and nobody dared to disobey him.
Suddenly, Ye Futian started walking in the air, attracting everyone’s gaze. He walked up to Emperor Luo who also raised his head and looked back at him.
At this moment, Emperor Luo felt somewhat dreary. As an emperor, he once viewed Ye Futian as an ant. Now, however, Ye Futian was far superior and was looking at him from above.
“Ye Futian.” Suddenly, everyone heard a clear voice. Ye Futian turned his head and saw a charming figure—Luo Mengyan, the princess of the Nandou Nation.
Ye Futian looked at her calmly.
“I won’t ask you to let him off, but the tragedy at that time was caused by him, my brother, and Minister Hua. Many people from the Luo Family are innocent. Can you please let them off?” Luo Mengyan did not show up just now, and she also did not plead Ye Futian to forgive her father for she knew well that this was impossible. A person should pay for what he had done, but it should not involve the entire Luo Family.
“In the future, the direct descendants of the Luo Family shall be ordinary people,” Ye Futian said.
“Alright.” Luo Mengyan felt very sad, but she still nodded. That time, the order from her father involved all the relatives of Ye Futian and an elder whom Ye Futian respected a lot was killed. Later, her father and brother also went to Cangye and threatened
Emperor Ye to hand over Ye Futian’s master and masteress. Now, Ye Futian decided not to kill every single one of them. What else could she say?
“Silver Nine, bring the two of them to Donghai City and freeze them in front of the School of the Emperor Star. I want them to kneel down before my grandmaster’s statue to repent,” Ye Futian said.
“Yes, Son,” Silver Nine nodded. Then, he brought Emperor Luo and Minister Hua and left the place. The emperor and the minister were carried off by him just like two ants. The emperor of a kingdom would kneel down before the School of the Emperor Star, causing many people to sigh. Donghai Academy would probably become famous in the Nandou Nation.
Ye Futian walked back and stood above the Imperial Palace, scanning the crowd. The hatred between him and the Luo Family finally ended, and he also completed what he had been bothered by for a long time. He wished that his grandmaster could now rest in peace.
“Luo Tianyin stole the Nandou Nation, and it shall now be returned to the Nandou royal family.
My uncle Nandou Wenshan, a descendant of the former Nandou royal family, will be the emperor of Nandou in the future. The sin that Luo Tianyin has committed will not involve anyone apart from those directly in the Luo Family. Next time, if I can become powerful enough, I will also try to help the Nandou Nation. I hope that Nandou can become more and more prosperous,” Ye Futian said loudly. Then, he looked at Nandou Wenshan and smiling, he said, “Uncle, I will leave everything else to you.” After he finished speaking, he smiled and backed to the side.
Nandou Wenshan took a deep breath and walked forward. He went to the spot above the crowd and felt very emotional. In the past, his ancestor had been killed. Now, the Nandou Nation was finally returned to him.
He recalled the scene when he first met Ye Futian. That day, in the Luo Palace, he was extremely suave, and shocked everyone with his “Melody of the White Feather.” That time, Nandou Wenshan already somewhat admired Ye Futian. However, he did not expect Ye Futian to create such a miracle in only two years and help him get back the Nandou Nation. Some elders of the Nandou Clan trembled in excitement. The nation was finally returned to them.
Fortunately, Ye Futian did not hate the entire Nandou Clan because of Nandou Tai alone. Fortunately, the relationship between him and Hua Jieyu was firm enough, otherwise, they would not be able to get control over the nation.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.” Outside the Nandou Nation Imperial Palace, many courtiers bowed to salute. The guards also knelt down on one knee.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.” Seeing a group of people taking the lead, more and more people started to salute Nandou Wenshan. They knew that while Nandou Wenshan’s level may not be very high and he was not even a noble, he would sit firmly as the emperor because of Ye Futian’s presence. Nobody would be able to change this.
Emperor Luo ended up like this. Who would still dare to touch Nandou?
The earth-shattering voice echoed in the sky. In the Imperial Palace, the faces of the people from the Luo Family turned pale, and there were even some who started to escape.
Ye Futian landed on the ground. He stood beside Hua Jieyu, and Hua Jieyu held his hand.
The two gripped each other’s hand firmly and smiled at each other. Both of them could finally set their minds at rest. The problem in the Nandou Nation which had been bothering them for a long time was finally over.
“Futian, thank you.” Hua Jieyu’s voice was as gentle as water. She knew that Ye Futian chose to forgive the Nandou Clan and let her uncle become the emperor not because he had any special feelings towards the Nandou Clan. Nandou Tai had treated him poorly, how could he have any affection for the Nandou Clan? He did everything only because of his affection for her.
“Do you want to marry me in return?” Ye Futian smiled and looked at Hua Jieyu.
Hua Jieyu blushed and widened her eyes at Ye Futian. This guy. Everything just ended and he is already starting to show his real self.
“No problem.” Hua Jieyu gave a charming smile.
“I’ll take it for real.” Ye Futian also smiled. Beside them, Hua Fengliu and Nandou Wenyin smiled as they looked at the two, after which they glanced at each other. In the eyes of the other, they could both see relief and joy. The two had really grown up and had surpassed them.
To Hua Fengliu, Ye Futian was his disciple, and also his son in law. Ye Futian was no different from his own children. He recalled the scene when his Life Spirit was destroyed in Qingzhou, and Ye Futian carried him to Donghai. The two relied upon each other for life. Now, he felt that all bitterness had ended and sweetness had begun, as everything was over. At the moment, he only had one wish, that Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu could be happy and safe for their whole life. He already had such an amazing daughter and son in law. What else could he ask for?
Qin Li, Chu Yaoyao, Qian Shanmu, Qin Mengruo, and Zhe Song all looked at Ye Futian. They each had different expressions on their faces and all felt somewhat shocked. Although today’s battle did not happen in the Eastern Barren Territory, many people still witnessed it. From then on, nobody would question Ye Futian’s combat abilities.
Looking at Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu who were standing together, Chu Yaoyao lowered her head slightly and felt a complicated emotion surging in her heart.
Turning around quietly, Qin Li and the rest were ready to leave.
When Qin Li passed by Zhe Song, he smiled and said, “Together?”
Zhe Song looked at Qin Li, after which he nodded, “Alright.” Then the people from the Eastern Barren Territory left the place one after another.
Still, there were many people in the crowd who were staring at Ye Futian. Emperor Ye, Ye Danchen, Ye Lingxi, and Lin Yueyao were also here. Clearly, she would not miss the occasion. At the moment, she was smiling very brightly as she blessed the couple in her heart.
Chapter 310: Let Me Help You Measure It

A bright smile appeared on the faces of Gu Dongliu, Xue Ye, and Luo Fan. “He’s indeed my junior. He has my style,” Luo Fan said with his head held high. “Shameless.” Xue Ye looked at him in disgust and said, “You? If Little Brother is at your level, he will defeat you with just one strike.”
Luo Fan looked at Xue Ye and said emotionlessly, “Brother, this time sister allowed you to leave the mountain because of little brother. When you go back, you should stay there and cultivate. I plan to travel around the Eastern Barren Territory for a while before going back.”
Xue Ye widened his eyes at Luo Fan.
“Let’s go,” Gu Dongliu said emotionlessly as he turned around. Luo Fan walked up and asked, “Third brother, do we just leave like this?”
“The issue here is settled, and little brother no longer needs us now. We’ll let him have his own time here.” Gu Dongliu continued walking and left the place. With the nobles from Ancient Luolan beside him, nothing would happen to Ye Futian. The people from the Eastern Barren Territory did not dare act so recklessly.
Gu Dongliu, Xue Ye and Luo Fan’s white clothes swayed in the air as they took their leave. Ye Futian glanced in that direction. He did not go there and also did not thank them. To him, the Cottage disciples were all like his family members.
However, at the moment, not all those who had stayed behind were happy. Many emperors from the Hundred Lands had come here to watch the battle. They all could not keep calm, especially those who had drunk and chatted with Emperor Luo. They felt very uneasy because Ye Futian had seen them that day. Now that the general situation had already been determined, they no longer had the chance to switch their position.
A few emperors approached Ye Futian and lowered their heads respectfully. “Mr. Ye, we’re here to apologize.” Ye Futian stared at them. Immediately, all the emperors trembled with fear. Looking at the scene, many people from the Nandou Nation sighed in their hearts. Even emperors felt scared before Ye Futian.
“Later, go and find Emperor Ye and the emperor of Nandou to discuss it,” Ye Futian said, waving his hand. He did not have the time to deal with these people. That time, the emperors from the Yunchu Nation and the like apologized and surrendered, but they betrayed him immediately after Luo Junlin returned. They even used Ye Lingxi and Ye Danchen as hostages. Therefore, Ye Futian was already not bothered with these emperors at the moment.
Of course, these emperors had not done anything to him before. Otherwise, he would not choose to forgive them again, just like Emperor Chu.
Seeing Ye Futian’s cold look, the emperors nodded and said, “Yes.” Then, they stepped back respectfully. They were also very emotional. He was such a young Dharma Plane cultivator and yet his status was already above the emperors. Many strong nobles listened to his orders. Emperor Ye, Ye Wuchen, and Liu Feiyang walked up to Ye Futian.
“Uncle Ye.” “Do you need my help to handle the issues here?” Emperor Ye said. “That would be great,” Ye Futian said, smiling. Emperor Ye had been an emperor for a while and would, therefore, be able to settle these issues easily. Meanwhile, he could teach Nandou Wenshan as well. On the other hand, Ye Futian could not bother to deal with these things. “When are you going back?” Liu Feiyang asked.
“After I finish handling everything here,” Ye Futian said. “Alright. Now you already have powerful cultivators protecting you. I will stay here for a while and then go back to the Eastern Barren Territory first.” Liu Feiyang smiled. Ye Futian nodded, after which he looked at the Imperial Palace. He then walked towards that direction.
Next, they needed to put the Imperial Palace in good order. Ye Futian went to a courtyard in the palace. There, he saw Minister Zuo. “You’re finally here.” Minister Zuo looked at Ye Futian. He stood up and said, “Please sit.”
“Minister Zuo, you don’t have to be so polite,” Ye Futian said. “Okay,” Minister Zuo nodded. “Do you blame me?”
That time, if he had not treated Ye Futian so well and even gave him the Decree of the Minister, many things would probably not have happened. “Last time when I met the princess, I asked her to tell you that I do not blame you at all.” Ye Futian shook his head. “Minister Zuo, do you want to follow me to the Eastern Barren Territory?”
Minister Zuo shook his head. “I do not belong there. Although I am an astrologer, I need to hide this ability. Otherwise, there is a high chance that I will die earlier. I will continue to stay at Nandou.”
“Alright. Senior, can you continue to be a minister and help my uncle?” Ye Futian said. Minister Zuo was a minister and many courtiers were chosen by him. If he was willing to help, it would be much easier to organize the Nandou Nation. “Yes I would serve him,” Minister Zuo nodded. Ye Futian folded his hands and said, “Thank you, Minister Zuo.”
Minister Zuo stared at the handsome young man in front of him. Perhaps, even he himself did not know about his future. The Nandou Nation faced a major reorganization. In the Nandou Nation Imperial City, Ye Futian’s name spread to all the restaurants, inns, and any place where there were people. In just one day, everyone knew about him. However, just when everyone was discussing Ye Futian, he and Hua Jieyu left the place quietly.
Even his master, masteress, and Yu Sheng did not know about it. Of course, the Loulan Silver Snow Guards were still following them and protecting them secretly. …
The East Sea was extremely vast. There were ships sailing in the boundless sea. They appeared to be particularly tiny and lonely in the sea, especially when it was nighttime.
At the moment, in the sky above the East Sea, a demon was flapping its wings and flying forward. The first light of the morning could already be seen. In the distant horizon, a trace of red light appeared and shone onto the sea. Immediately, the East Sea turned golden.
“Such a beautiful sunrise.” On the back of the demon, a charming lady was folding her legs casually, and her body formed a gentle curve. Under the radiance of the first light of dawn, she looked like an elegant fairy, and nobody would have any evil thoughts upon seeing her. However, suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed her slim waist from behind. If anyone else saw the scene, the person would certainly die of envy.
“Indeed it’s beautiful but not as beautiful as you,” Ye Futian said, smiling. Hua Jieyu glanced at him with a passionate look. “Are we there already?” Hua Jieyu asked softly.
“Yup, should be reaching soon,” Ye Futian nodded. The red sun ascended into the sky slowly and the sea started glistening, producing a fascinating view. In the distance, an island city could roughly be seen. That was the city of Qingzhou. It was Ye Futian’s hometown, and also where the two of them met and fell in love.
Now that all the problems of Cangye had been settled, Ye Futian wanted to go back to Qingzhou and take a look. He wanted to try his luck at his house to see whether his father had returned.
The Black Wind Condor sped up and brought the two across the East Sea. It reached the shore and without stopping, it headed towards the city of Qingzhou directly. This island city was peaceful as usual. Every day, it had its own stories. After the monster tide that year, the city was slowly regaining its vitality as well. Since the Ye House was rebuilt, it still looked quite stylish.
When Ye Futian arrived and saw the state of the Ye House, a strange expression appeared on his face. Could it be that my b*stard father is really back? The Black Wind Condor landed in front of the house. Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu walked towards the house and the guard outside was shocked by their appearances.
At the moment, Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu were already no longer the young teenagers they once were. That time, although they were already good-looking, their auras were far weaker than now. Their looks alone were already telling everyone else that they were extraordinary. Furthermore, the demon had a very sharp look. It must be a powerful one.
“Mister and Miss, may I know who you are looking for?” the guard asked. “Are the people from the Ye House back?” Ye Futian asked. “You are referring to Ye Baichuan’s family, right? They have already been missing for a few years. My master rebuilt this place,” the guard said. “Feng House?” Ye Futian asked.
“Yes. Do you know my master? Do you need me to inform the people inside?” the guard said politely. “Is Uncle Feng inside?” Ye Futian asked.
“Nope. The lady stays here,” the guard said. A strange look appeared on Ye Futian’s face. It’s actually that girl. “Never mind then,” Ye Futian said, smiling. He grabbed Hua Jieyu’s hand and turned around.
“Don’t you want to meet her?” Hua Jieyu smiled and looked at Ye Futian. Ye Futian pinched Hua Jieyu’s hand. This fox is actually teasing me. “Are you just going to leave like this?” Behind them, a voice spread out suddenly. Ye Futian turned around and saw a charming figure running out of the house. Feng Qingxue was already 19 this year. Standing gracefully at her spot, she looked even prettier and her body was tall and sexy. Seeing her, Ye Futian smiled and said, “Qingxue, you have grown taller.”
Feng Qingxue looked at Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu. Ye Futian was already more mature and also more handsome. On the other hand, the girl who was once a legend in Qingzhou Academy was also more attractive and stunning at the moment.
“Then am I more beautiful as well?” Feng Qingxue smiled. Unlike in the past, she already knew how to control her emotions now.
“Yes, much prettier,” Ye Futian said, smiling.
Feng Qingxue gave a sweet smile and asked again, “Are you still cultivating in Donghai Academy?”
“Nope.” Ye Futian shook his head. Last time when he came here with Minister Zuo, he was still a disciple of Donghai Academy.
“Then where are you cultivating? Next time, if I have the chance, maybe I will go and find you,” Feng Qingxue asked, smiling. “Sure. I am cultivating in the College Cottage in the Eastern Barren Territory,” Ye Futian replied. Hua Jieyu sighed in her heart. She could clearly see the emotions in Feng Qingxue’s eyes. However, she probably did not know what the College Cottage meant.
“I’ll take note of that,” Hua Qingxue nodded. At the moment, she had not realized that this was probably a place that she would never be able to go. After a few days, there would be news from Donghai City. It would be hard to imagine how she would feel after knowing the truth. “I’ll leave now,” Ye Futian said.
“Okay. Bye.” Feng Qingxue nodded.
“Help me to say hello to Uncle Feng.” Ye Futian waved his hand at Feng Qingxue. Then, he grabbed Hua Jieyu’s hand and returned to the back of the Black Wind Condor. The Black Wind Condor flapped its wings and flew off into the distance very quickly. Feng Qingxue still stood at her spot and gazed blankly at the slowly disappearing figure. The encounter was plain and simple, but she was still somewhat sad.
In the sky, on the back of the Black Wind Condor, Hua Jieyu smiled at Ye Futian and asked softly, “Do you miss her?” Seeing Hua Jieyu’s mischievous look, Ye Futian smiled and nodded, “Of course. Her body shape was good last time, and it is even better now. Have you noticed how long her legs are?”
Hua Jieyu blinked her eyes. Then, she widened her eyes at him looking displeased. Sitting down, she extended her legs that were crossed. A pair of slim and tender legs were presented in front of Ye Futian just like this.
Ye Futian’s eyes sparkled and he said, “Fox, let me help you to measure it.” As he spoke, he put his hands on her legs. The soft legs were very elastic and felt extremely good.
“Go away.” Hua Jieyu kicked him gently and quickly moved her legs away, her face turning red!
