In the Wangshen Watchtower, the cultivation training grounds of Millet Emperor, a group of silhouettes descended. It was Millet Emperor’s group returning.
With Millet Emperor’s towering cultivation, even traversing over many continents would not need much time.
As their group landed, Millet Emperor revealed a pensive look. He seemed to be thinking about something.

Teacher,
Li Changsheng asked softly.
Is there anything that you need me to do?

Millet Emperor shook his head as he looked into the distance. Back then, during the battle when Supreme Deity Donglai perished, what had happened exactly?
Even the memories that Ye Futian inherited did not reveal anything about it. Had Supreme Deity Donglai intentionally erased them?
If so, had Supreme Deity Donglai intentionally kept it hidden and did he not want them to know about it?

All of you, leave us. Both of you remain,
Millet Emperor instructed. He meant for Goddess Donglai and Ye Futian to remain. The other people bowed slightly and then stepped down one by one. Zong Chan had a strange look on his face. He could tell that Millet Emperor had matters to discuss. Yet, even he could not know about this matter?

Uncle Millet,
Goddess Donglai called out as she looked at Millet Emperor.
Is there something urgent?


It is nothing,
Millet Emperor said, not revealing his thoughts. He instead looked at Ye Futian and asked,
In the previous battle, I saw that you had a murderous intent towards Ling He. What happened between the two of you?

The two of them had fought fiercely against each other. Observers of their battle could tell that they weren’t pulling their punches. Their attacks were ferocious and Ye Futian had calculated his moves against Ling He. He pretended that his sword had been suppressed by Ling Xiao Pagoda, drawing Ling He to attack him close up. Ye Futian had wanted to kill him in a single blow.
Millet Emperor had heard of the grudge between the two of them at the cliff face. If Ling He bore hatred against Ye Futian, Ye Futian would not have needed to respond in such a fashion. Attacking the Young Palace Lord of Ling Xiao Palace so fiercely in such a situation was not worth the risk for such a talented person like Ye Futian.
Unless there were intricacies that Millet Emperor was not aware of.
When Ye Futian heard Millet Emperor’s question, a cold look flashed past in his eyes. He replied,
Before this, when we were travelling across the Divine Ocean Continent, we encountered two juniors. We got acquainted with them before the cliff face where Thunder Punishing Skylord left his teachings. They wanted to enter Turtle Deity Island to witness Emperor Xi facing his tribulation. I agreed to help them and brought them to Turtle Deity Island. However, Thunder Punishing Skylord told me across transmitted thoughts that, not long after we separated upon arriving on Turtle Deity Island, these two juniors were killed by people sent by Ling He.

When Millet Emperor heard Ye Futian’s explanation, he revealed a strange look and said,
The Young Palace Lord of Ling Xiao Palace cannot even tolerate two juniors?

For him to have committed such an atrocity was somewhat demeaning to his station.

It is not that he could not tolerate them. He originally gave no regard for the lives of these two juniors. He did not care at all,
Ye Futian stated.
A person with such character deserves death.

Millet Emperor nodded his head and said,
For you to say such things, he will sooner or later want to kill you.


I understand,
answered Ye Futian as he nodded his head. That was why he also wanted to eliminate the other party. However, in the Donghua Domain, it was difficult to do so owing to the other party’s identity.
Millet Emperor gave Ye Futian a serious look. For him to be angered by the deaths of two insignificant people to the point that he wanted to kill the Young Palace Lord of Ling Xiao Palace, the way this fellow did things was extraordinary. He wore his heart on his sleeve.

You have cultivated the power of the divine elephant and are proficient in suppressing the Great Path, right?
Millet Emperor asked.

Hmm,
answered Ye Futian while nodding his head.

You have comprehended your cultivation in the Wangshen Watchtower before. What are your thoughts?
Millet Emperor continued asking.

It is as though the Wangshen Watchtower itself is formed from the Great Path. The aura inside feels as though it is the Great Path itself. The domain inside has absolute power of suppression,
Ye Futian said.
Millet Emperor nodded his head and said,
It looks like your comprehension is deep. By comprehending my cultivation in the Wangshen Watchtower, I created a magnum opus called Gate to World Suppression. However, that was because it was compatible with my abilities and combined all the techniques that I comprehended. You are proficient in even more techniques, hence you can develop it more broadly. I will teach you Gate to World Suppression. You can then merge it with your own comprehension and further cultivate it.

Goddess Donglai revealed an astonished look as she stood there. She had brought Ye Futian over due to his connection with her father. She wanted to find Ye Futian some backing. She was worried about anything happening to him in the future. She was taking precautions just in case.
She never imagined that Millet Emperor would pass on his magnum opus to Ye Futian.
Gate to World Suppression was a magnum opus that Millet Emperor comprehended himself. Millet Emperor became renowned in the Divine Prefecture due to this technique. He had a few extremely glorious battles before. Even in the Wangshen Watchtower, few people cultivated this technique. Zong Chan was probably the only other person who truly mastered it. He was a prominent figure who had cultivating abilities very close to that of Millet Emperor. Zong Chan was probably personally chosen by Millet Emperor to inherit his teachings.
However, now, Millet Emperor actually wanted to teach Ye Futian Gate to World Suppression. They had only gone on a trip to the Divine Ocean Continent together and Millet Emperor already thought so highly of Ye Futian?
However, during this trip, Ye Futian had indeed displayed extreme levels of talent. When he was comprehending the teachings on the cliff face, Thunder Punishing Skylord had also acknowledged him and had transmitted his thoughts over to him. At that time, aside from Ling He, there was another famous figure present, Qin Qing of Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow. She was one of three main disciples who were personally trained by Sword Goddess. However, only Ye Futian managed to comprehend the true meaning of the teachings on the cliff face.
Ye Futian had also managed to defeat Ling He, who similarly had a flawless Great Path and who had higher cultivation than him. With such ability, even Great Yan Ancient Royal Family thought highly of him.

Senior, this seems inappropriate,
Ye Futian said. After all, he was not a disciple of Millet Emperor. Only Millet Emperor’s personal disciples were qualified to cultivate his magnum opus.

There’s nothing wrong with it. Cultivators do not like to be bound by rules anyway. Since I am the one teaching the Way, naturally I will teach it to whoever that I want to teach,
Millet Emperor assured Ye Futian.
Zong Chan has mastered Gate to World Suppression. I am sure the skill will be fully utilized in your hands too. Besides that, I can tell that some skills that you cultivate might not be any weaker than Gate to World Suppression. You did not unleash your full potential when you were fighting with Ling He, right?
asked Millet Emperor. With his vision, he could tell quite a lot of things from the battle.
Millet Emperor believed that aside from him, other top figures had also comprehended many things from the battle between Ling He and Ye Futian.
Ling He didn’t just lose to Ye Futian. In reality, the combat ability between the two of them might not even be on the same level. Ling He paled in insignificance when compared to Ye Futian.

Hmm,
Ye Futian nodded, admitting it openly. Goddess Donglai, who was beside him, cast a glance at him. She had chosen Ye Futian because he was acknowledged by the divine tree and had received her father’s teachings. However, this top monstrous figure from the Original Realm was indeed stronger than what she expected.
She was curious to find out what Ye Futian’s future held.

I will impart my knowledge of Gate to World Suppression to you. Receive it without any worries. You can merge it with your other abilities based on your own cultivation,
Millet Emperor said. A formless aura permeated from Millet Emperor’s body and enveloped Ye Futian. Divine haloes directly surged into Ye Futian’s mind. They transformed into drawings and were engraved in his mind.
After a moment, Ye Futian opened his eyes and bowed slightly at Millet Emperor, saying,
Thank you, Teacher.

Millet Emperor had imparted his magnum opus to Ye Futian, so he was worthy to be called Teacher by Ye Futian.
Ye Futian calling Millet Emperor Teacher did not mean that he would become his disciple.
Millet Emperor nodded with a smile when he heard Ye Futian greeting him as Teacher. He replied,
Do not call me Teacher when others are around. In the past, I have made a promise, so our relationship now is not that of an actual master and disciple.


I understand,
Ye Futian answered as he nodded.

Go and practice,
Millet Emperor commanded. Ye Futian turned around and strode towards the skyscraping watchtower. The watchtower was certainly the best place for him to comprehend and cultivate Gate to World Suppression.
After Ye Futian left, Millet Emperor looked at Goddess Donglai. Prior to this, Millet Emperor had not said anything suspicious; however, Goddess Donglai could tell that he was hiding something.

Uncle Millet, if you have any thoughts, please do not hide them from me,
Goddess Donglai said.

Regarding your father’s death, I have long suspected that Great Yan Ancient Royal Family was not the only party involved.
Millet Emperor explained to Goddess Donglai,
Back then, the conflict between Eastern Deity Island and Great Yan Ancient Royal Family was known by all. However, nobody witnessed the final battle. I suspect that other forces might have secretly been involved.

Goddess Donglai had a serious expression as she asked Millet Emperor,
Who else does Uncle Millet think was involved in it?

Millet Emperor analyzed,
During our trip to Turtle Deity Island this time, what Ling Xiao Palace did was abnormal. They had no grudges with us, so there was no need for them to kick us when we were down. As for the incident at the cliff face, it only involved Ling He and Ye Futian. It was unnecessary for Ling Xiao Palace to magnify the issue. Unless they were targeting us for another reason.


Ling Xiao Palace was involved in my father’s death?
Goddess Donglai felt a heavy burden in her heart. She had not dreamt of avenging her father. However, she still felt miserable when she knew that other forces might be involved in the battle which caused her father’s death. She reproached herself for not being strong enough to do something about the matter.

I can only say that there is such a possibility. But the truth will eventually be revealed,
Millet Emperor murmured.

Uncle Millet…
Goddess Donglai lowered her head.

What’s wrong?
Millet Emperor asked.

If there are other forces involved, looking into it further will…
Goddess Donglai didn’t finish her sentence, but Millet Emperor understood her words. What would happen if they found out the truth?
Knowing the truth would not bring any benefits to Millet Emperor.
Great Yan Ancient Royal Family was already very domineering, with rich teachings and resources. The overall ability of the Wangshen Watchtower was weaker when compared to that of Great Yan Ancient Royal Family. If yet another superpower was involved in this case, knowing the truth would definitely bring harm to Millet Emperor. He might as well pretend that he knew nothing and cease his investigation before anything bad happened.

I want to know the truth,
Millet Emperor declared while raising his head. The scene where he used to sit with Supreme Deity Donglai and discuss the Way surfaced in his mind. His old friend had died in vain. Not only could he not avenge his friend, but he also didn’t know who his enemy was. This matter had always been a burden in his heart.
When cultivators reached Millet Emperor’s current cultivation level, it was hard for them to advance further. It was even harder for them to improve themselves if their minds were encumbered with something. Hence, Millet Emperor was determined to find out the truth. Otherwise, he could not live with himself.
Goddess Donglai sighed. In reality, she had lost hope in avenging her father.

His appearance might be an opportunity. If you have a chance, make a trip to the Donghua Heavens,
Millet Emperor whispered while looking into the distance!
