The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2126: Retreat

Ye Futian raised his head and glanced at those who fled. Some of them had never taken action nor revealed their aura before. If they escaped into the crowd, they might never be found. However, since they had come for Four Corner Village, their guilt was certain.

Swords roared between heaven and earth as they rose to traverse hundreds of miles of distance. They were gone in a moment.

Ye Futian’s body suspended in the air as brilliant divine light bloomed from him; his body seemed to have turned into the light itself. He then moved forward with incredible speed. A group of people was escaping but seemed to have sensed something. As they turned their heads to look back, they saw a terrifying demonic light directly rained on them, and in the next moment, they turned to ash.

“Is he that strong?” It was the first time that people in Four Corner City had ever seen Ye Futian making a move, and it was more powerful than they could have imagined. All these Renhuang were like insignificant insects that couldn’t counter the divine light of the Great Path he released.

A Renhuang of the Eighth Realm turned to face Ye Futian, both of his palms pushed forward at the same time. Suddenly, a golden divine matrix appeared in front of him, bursting with incomparable radiance. It slammed toward Ye Futian with great oppression.

Ye Futian’s body continued moving forward. There seemed to be a divine illusion of the peacock that appeared. The divine light released from his body was demonic and radiant. Countless rays of divine light rained down and broke through the divine matrix immediately. He then penetrated the body of the other. The man’s face paled as his body turned into speckles of light, disappearing without a trace.

“A powerful existence of Renhuang in the Eighth Realm gone in a single blow.” Many people trembled violently. Was this Ye Futian’s true strength?

They had heard that this man had great luck. The village was different after his arrival as he played an important role in the changes in Four Corner Village. Later, he joined Four Corner Village and became a key figure, even replacing its previous leader, Muyun Long.

Because of him, the village expelled Muyun Long.

There were even rumors that Ye Futian had accepted four disciples. These four disciples had all inherited the village’s divine techniques; it was conceivable of the kind of status he would occupy in the village. When these four disciples of his come into their own, becoming the village leaders, he would be greatly respected as their master.

But that day was still far away into the future, and perhaps he would have already become even more powerful by then.

Ye Futian continued moving forward, chasing those in the other direction. But he saw that there was a mighty atmosphere permeated in front of him. A group of men stood in the sky, with extremely powerful cultivation. These people took action and intervened, helping Ye Futian and the others to intercept those who were fleeing.

The sight in front of him caused Ye Futian to stop. He looked ahead and saw that these cultivators seemed to have woven a great net, which caught those fleeing cultivators. For a moment, the sound of collision rang through heaven and earth.

It didn’t take long for the confrontation to be over. Those who fled were all terminated, and the head of those who performed the termination spoke loud and clear, “Search all of Four Corner City. Arrest anyone who plotted against Four Corner Village. You may execute them on the spot.”

The man’s tone was cold and contained a strong murderous intent. It was as if he shared the same indignation as Four Corner Village, which made Ye Futian wonder if the man was also from the village. However, he had cultivated in Four Corner Village for a couple of years now, and he was pretty sure he did not know the man, as this man was not a cultivator of the village.

But at this time, the few in the lead walked in the void and came to Ye Futian’s side. They saluted Ye Futian and Fang Gai, who was behind him. “The Zhang family from Qingyang Continent. Now that we have entered the Four Corner City to cultivate, we pledge ourselves to your cause.”

Ye Futian understood everything immediately. It seemed that he was a cultivator from the outside, wanting to establish a good relationship with Four Corner Village.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to risk offending the forces who came to attack Four Corner Village this time. Those people may very well be from other major forces. In doing what they did, the Zhang family risked becoming a target themselves.

It appeared that they wanted to take this opportunity to befriend the village.

“If this is the case, we are much indebted to you.” Fang Gai nodded slightly and did not rebuff their gesture. Although he had never left Four Corner Village before, he knew enough about things of the world and was well-read. He knew much more than most people inside the village. More importantly, he was astute, as could be deduced from his treatment of Old Ma and Ye Futian.

For that, Fang Gai understood their intentions.

Now that the Four Corner Village had officially emerged as a principality for cultivation, this was their first major battle out of their little corner of the world. Four Corner City was built around Four Corner Village, so it was quite natural for it to be an affiliated territory of Four Corner Village. In any case, all that had trespassed was destiny.

If Four Corner Village wanted to be part of the world, it must develop and grow, even recruiting more people from the outside to cultivate at Four Corner Village and contribute to the city. It was also necessary to gain control of the Four Corner City not to miss any opportunities when the village itself started to develop.

The Zhang family in Qingyang Continent was a power familial principality that was an absolute ruler of its own domain. However, they had reached the peak of where they were, and it was difficult for them to make further advancement unless they were attached to an even greater force.

However, all the principalities within the Upper Nine Heavens in Shangqing Domain had long been formed. Even though the Zhang family was a power of the first-class on a continent, they were still nothing by the standards of the Upper Nine Heavens. There were many other forces at the same level as they were, and some even stronger. It wouldn’t be difficult for them to gain a foothold, but it would be difficult for them to get ahead.

Therefore, they needed an opportunity.

After learning about what had transpired in Four Corner Village, countless people from the Shangqing Domain migrated to build the city. The clan chief of the Zhang family knew that this was the opportunity he had been waiting for, and they couldn’t afford to miss it. So, they abandoned everything they had built in Qingyang Continent and moved the entire family here. The first group that arrived in the Four Corner City participated in the construction of the city, had developed and grown in the process. With the strong backing of their familial power, they had already gained incredible control inside Four Corner City.

This time, they finally caught a break. Today was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Therefore, he acted decisively and gave the order to search for those fugitives inside Four Corner City to get on the good side of Four Corner Village.

What came after that would depend on fate. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Men plan, but heaven decides.

Boom... At this moment, a shocking collision came from the sky, and the entire Four Corner City shuddered violently.

Ye Futian raised his head and looked yonder, only to see Emperor Yan had broken free from the power of spatial exile. A towering divine light burst out from him, which made Ye Futian feel that there was a divine power in the center of that glow. It was a terrifying divine power.

“Divine item!” Ye Futian exclaimed silently.

Many of these major forces possessed divine items, which served as their last resort. The Millet Emperor had the Watchtower, and the ancient royal family of Yan, being an extremely ancient royal power, must have inherited some invaluable treasures. However, Emperor Yan didn’t take it to Donghua Banquet. After all, he probably didn’t expect that a war of that level would erupt at the banquet.

However, this time was different. He had taken into account the potential danger of this trip and came prepared. In order to avoid unforeseen situations, he carried the treasure on his person this time so that he was able to break free of the spatial exiled power.

However, the battle did not seem to have stopped. Above that high sky, terrifying divine lights collided. Everyone inside Four Corner City felt that the sky and the earth were about to collapse. It was not simply an illusion. The sky and the earth seemed to be on the verge of being torn apart in a frightful battle scene.

“Old Ma actually fought against Emperor Yan, who was aided by the divine item, and he did not lose,” Ye Futian secretly marveled. However, this divine Item was probably not more powerful than the Watchtower. The Millet Emperor and the Watchtower were almost integrated into one entity.

A devastating storm encompassed an area of great radius. It was tinged with an extreme sense of oppression. It seemed as if the sky was about to fall down. Of course, this level of warfare was alarming. If the battlefield were inside Four Corner City, the city would surely be razed to the ground.

Even though they were very far away, everyone could still feel that power of suffocation.

“Break!” A great roar came from above the firmament, followed by a dragon chant. The purple golden divine light pierced through the sky, shattering the sealing power and breaking the spatial power that had closed up this area.

“Retreat,” Emperor Yan said as Ling Yunzi left the battlefield to follow him. He turned into a beam of light, fleeing toward the far distance. In a blink of an eye, two beams of light disappeared between heaven and earth at the same time, leaving Four Corner City in ruin!
