The Legend of Futian Chapter 2877

Chapter 2877: Eras in Transition

The spear in Ye Futian’s hand disappeared, and his mind was in complete chaos.

The Heavenly Path had been remade into the ancient tree of the world!

No wonder the ancient tree of the world could perceive all the divine items, for it contained the power of the Source.

So, he was that person in that new plan who remade the Heavenly Path.

It seemed that everything was indeed predestined.

A long time seemed to have pa.s.sed before Ye Futian turned his attention to Donghuang the Great, extremely mixed emotions in his eyes.

The daughter of the Emperor was the wife of Donghuang the Great.

Therefore, the truth about his birth that he had been searching for so long turned out to be right in front of him. The enemy of whom he had been so wary of was his biological father!

The master of the Divine Prefecture was his biological father, but he had been living in the shadow of the Divine Prefecture all this time, which seemed like cruel irony.

Ye Futian suddenly laughed, and the laughter seemed a little sarcastic. He did not know who or what he was laughing at.

This kind of ending was something he had never considered possible. Although he had antic.i.p.ated countless possibilities, he never expected this would be it.

“He didn’t have a choice,” said a voice from his side, which attracted Ye Futian’s attention. He turned and saw Donghuang Diyuan with tears on her face, looking particularly sorrowful. It looked as if she had endured a lot as well.

“No one had any choice in this matter; they were all fighting for the same thing. If you were the one being left behind, they would surely have discovered you. For this ideal, many chose to sacrifice themselves, including my father,” said Donghuang Diyuan, looking at Ye Futian.

Ye Futian’s heart skipped a beat as he looked at Donghuang Diyuan.

“Your father,” he murmured, “was Emperor Ye Qing!”

“Yes!” Donghuang Diyuan nodded.

Ye Futian remembered when Emperor Ye Qing cried when he saw him. Finally, he understood that the moment Emperor Ye Qing saw his spiritual soul, he had already known who Ye Futian was.

His parents, one was the brother of Emperor Ye Qing, and the other was someone whom Emperor Ye Qing admired the most.

“No wonder you are unparalleled in strength. You have been bathed in the power of the ancestral phoenix since you were a child. When the relics of the Eight Legions appeared, you chose to inherit the power of the Naga with the ancestral dragon and the ancestral phoenix to protect you.” Ye Futian seemed to be murmuring to himself. “So, in the Heaven Realm, the Divine Demon Diagram that appeared under the Heavenly Path was not for me, but you.”

Donghuang Diyuan did not answer. Of course, she knew it was for her, but she did not fight for it. His action was a silent acknowledgment that it belonged to Ye Futian.

“Ever since my father’s death, Donghuang Imperial Palace was under surveillance, therefore everything that the Imperial Palace did seemed to be to get rid of all traces left behind by my father. But in fact, it was to cover up your existence. He had no choice. Over the years, he was enduring all this by himself.”

Donghuang Diyuan was worried that Ye Futian would resent Donghuang the Great.

It turned out that it was because of him that Emperor Ye Qing became taboo in the Divine Prefecture and all traces of him had been erased. In the end, even the city of Qingzhou, where he grew up, had disappeared entirely.

Therefore, his G.o.dfather, who was also behind the scenes, was a key player.

No wonder his G.o.dfather always told him that he was born to be an emperor ever since he was young. It turned out that it was indeed destiny. From the moment he was born, he would either die or inherit the throne!

“So, the World of Buddhism partic.i.p.ated as well,” Ye Futian said.

“Back then, when I was not yet an emperor, I had gone to the World of Buddhism to cultivate, and it was your mother who asked me to go. She and the Lord of All Buddhas had discussed Buddhism together; even the Buddha was incredibly respectful and taught me Elimination of Outflows—one of the six superpowers.” Donghuang the Great said, “This is the highest Buddhist method in Buddhism, and it is not to be pa.s.sed on to anyone lightly. Apart from the Buddha, the Buddha of Destiny, the Medicine Buddha Lord, and a very few other highly respected great Buddhas also know the truth.”

Ye Futian thought of the aggressive att.i.tude of the Medicine Buddha Lord and what the Buddha of Destiny called the 500-year reign. It turned out that all this was done to distract everyone else. After all, at that time, Ye Futian had already begun to reveal his talent and became one of the most enchanting genius talents in the world, catching the attention of several Great Emperors.

“Everyone is covering up your existence to buy more time for you,” Donghuang Diyuan said.

“Then why are they not covering it up now?” Ye Futian asked.

“There was no way to hide it any longer, especially after you killed the seven emperors with your spear. Both the Human Ancestor and the Devil Emperor have become suspicious. Although they could not confirm it, they started to have doubts about your existence.” Donghuang Diyuan continued, “That was why the Human Ancestor invited you to the Human Divine Palace to see if you would go and invited you to partic.i.p.ate in the war. Besides, they had arranged for a Great Emperor to get inside the Ye Imperial Palace and could use the people in the palace to threaten you if there was anything out of the ordinary.”

Ye Futian suddenly put two and two together when he heard Donghuang Diyuan’s words. What he didn’t understand at the time was now crystal clear. It was precisely because he did not know anything that the Human Ancestor didn’t detect anything out of the ordinary. Nonetheless, he was very much guarded as far as Ye Futian was concerned.

The same held true for the Devil Emperor; no wonder he felt that the Devil Emperor was behaving a little strangely. Not long ago, the Devil Emperor ordered the cultivators from the Devil Imperial Palace to intercept him and prevent him from entering Donghuang Imperial Palace.

Obviously, after the Devil Emperor fought against Donghuang the Great, and after the Great Emperor he dispatched to Ye Imperial Palace was killed, he sensed that something was wrong.

Donghuang the Great’s order of attack on Ye Imperial Palace was not meant to threaten Ye Futian with the people in Ye Imperial Palace. On the contrary, it was to bring these people to Donghuang Imperial Palace so that Ye Futian had nothing to worry about in the future!

At this moment, the divine power that sealed this s.p.a.ce disappeared, and many people stepped on the stairs to come here. They stood far away behind him, watching Ye Futian.

Ye Futian turned his head back to look at them and saw they were his elders who had been brought to Donghuang Imperial Palace. At this time, they were strongly impacted by the turn of events and were shocked.

Especially Hua Fengliu, who felt as if he was in a dream; he was the first person to know Ye Futian’s secret and knew that he was related to Emperor Ye Qing, but what he could never expect was that Ye Futian was the son of the master of the Divine Prefecture.

In the crowd, Ye Futian saw a familiar figure he hadn’t seen for a long time—Mr. Du from the Cottage. He was also here, looking at him with a smile, but there were tears in that smile.

He also saw the man he had been calling father—Ye Baichuan—and the family he knew. They were all here.

Everything that Donghuang the Great and Donghuang Diyuan had been saying was the answer he sought.

“Boy, It’s been a long time,” Ye Baichuan looked at Ye Futian and said with a smile. Ye Futian didn’t know how to respond.

Was he resentful? Of course there was some of that. But after knowing the truth and seeing those familiar faces in front of him, he couldn’t muster up any hatred.

Donghuang the Great sat there watching everything and showed a rare smile.

No matter what, it was a reunion of sorts.

He slowly got up and walked towards the top of the stairs. At this moment, he no longer resembled an unparalleled Great Emperor but more like an old man who had gone through a lot in life.

He has endured too much over the years.

The prophecy predicted by the Buddha of Destiny was about to be fulfilled.

Donghuang the Great walked to the divine throne, but instead of sitting down, he faced forward and took a deep breath.

The 500-year reign of Donghuang the Great was coming to an end.

From today on, it would be the era of the new emperor!
