Chapter 1807: 1807
The leading cultivator of the Dark Court was the leader of the Throne of the Underworld, who had descended upon the Heavenly Mandate Academy back then .
Around him were various top figures . However, the person who stood closest to him was a young man . The eyes of this young man were glistening with dark light; his gaze was fixed on Princess Donghuang . He had always been wanting to meet this daughter of Donghuang the Great in person .
She seemed even more charming in person compared to portraits of her . Her peerless temperament was something that a portrait could not capture .
“Qi Ye meets Princess Donghuang,” this youth greeted Princess Donghuang while bowing slightly . “I have long heard of Princess’ fame . I have admired Princess for a long time . Finally, my wish to meet Princess is granted today . Princess is even more graceful than I have imagined . I have fallen in love with Princess at first sight . ”
Qi Ye!
The people around Princess Donghuang instantly knew who this youth was when they heard his name .
There were Seven Kings of Darkness in the Dark Court . Each King groomed a successor to take over their throne in the future . These seven successors were crowned Proud Sons of Darkness; they were the heirs of the Seven Kings . If they fell, their positions would be replaced by another cultivator .
Each and every Proud Son of Darkness was chosen after rounds of extremely cruel selections . Their abilities were very powerful and were recognized by the Seven Kings . Their status in the Dark Court was also very high .
This Qi Ye was the heir of the Lord of the Underworld; he was the Proud Son of the Underworld .
Even so, his status still paled into insignificance as compared to that of the daughter of Donghuang the Great . Hence, he showed some manners in front of her . However, people around Princess Donghuang still frowned when they heard him say that he admired the Princess . Clearly, the audience disdained him .
Fell in love with the Princess at first sight?
Even if he was the Proud Son of the Underworld, he was still unworthy of her .
Princess Donghuang cast an indifferent glance at Qi Ye . She didn’t respond to his greeting . A divine general, who stood behind her, wore divine armor and was surrounded by a brilliant divine light, which cast away the darkness . He looked at the Lord of the Underworld and said, “In the past, the Dark Court had been defeated . The Void Realm is currently under the rule of the Divine Prefecture . Now, the Dark Court has gone against our agreement . Are you trying to stir up a war?”
“In the past, we had indeed agreed to close the passageway . However, the Gate of Hell has been opened by the cultivators from the Original Realm,” the Lord of the Underworld replied . “Hence, the original agreement has been broken . The Original Realm no longer belongs to the Divine Prefecture . Moreover, the Dark Court is not the only external force which is in the Original Realm now . ”
As far as the Lord of the Underworld knew, a few forces from the Upper Worlds had sent their representatives here . Not long ago, he had encountered Mei Ting from Devil World in the Heavenly Mandate Academy .
“Since that’s the case, we will banish you for the second time,” the divine general said with a harsh tone .
“Let’s put this matter aside for now . Qi Ye is the Proud Son of the Underworld, and he has always admired Princess Donghuang . Today, I brought him here to meet Princess . Princess, what do you think of him?” the Lord of the Underworld said with a smile . His playful tone revealed hints of disrespect .
Many people frowned in disagreement . The Lord of the Underworld, one of the Seven Kings of Darkness, was bold .
“Presumptuous,” a cold voice barked . A figure moved forward . He was not a follower of Princess Donghuang; instead, he was the College Chief of the Tianshen Academy . His clothes fluttered while his long hair danced in the wind . He seemed to be extremely angry . The might unleashed by him was powerful .
The Lord of the Underworld glanced at him . His dark eyes revealed the glint of a mocking smile as he said, “I was wondering who was speaking . It turns out to be the person who has been banished to the Lower Worlds . ”
“The person who was defeated and was cast away from here is not qualified to give comments here,” the College Chief of the Tianshen Academy retorted . “When the Dark Court left here last time, you left behind piles of dead bodies . Are you planning to repeat the same mistake this time?”
“You speak so arrogantly,” the Lord of the Underworld replied coldly . The might of dark light suppressed the space . Many top figures, who were in the parties beside him, unleashed their might too . In an instant, the space became suffocating .
“Alright, let’s get back to business . ” The Lord of the Underworld looked at the youth beside him and called, “Qi Ye . ”
Qi Ye nodded in response and took a few steps forward . He looked at Princess Donghuang and said, “I have long heard of Princess’ fame . When I knew that Princess was coming to the Original Realm today, I rushed here immediately, hoping to get some pointers from Princess . Donghuang the Great is the leader of the Divine Prefecture, and his might is renowned far and wide, but Princess is his only descendent . I wonder whether or not Princess is capable of inheriting the Emperor’s throne . ”
Everyone was curious about Princess Donghuang .

On top of her beauty, naturally, people paid attention to her ability .
She was the sole descendent of Donghuang the Great and the only heir to his throne . In the future, she might become the female emperor . Everyone praised her as someone with extraordinary talent and said she lived up to the expectations of Donghuang the Great . However, few people had actually seen her in action .
Since the Proud Son of the Underworld of the Dark Court encountered such an opportunity, he would certainly not want to miss it . He wanted to see how monstrous this Princess Donghuang was .
Gazes swept towards his opponent . The members of the Dark Court wanted to witness Princess Donghuang’s ability . However, for the members that had come from the Donghuang Imperial Palace, they couldn’t allow the Princess to exchange blows with Qi Ye . It would lower her status .
“You are not qualified,” commented the divine general, who was beside Princess Donghuang .
“We will only know after we try,” Qi Ye replied with a smile . His aura of a Renhuang emanated . Dark light surrounded his body as he stood looking down at everything else .
“Princess, are you afraid to accept his challenge?” the Lord of the Underworld mocked . His words were clearly goading the Princess into action; he was confident that his words would work . A Proud Son of the Dark Court had challenged Princess Donghuang . The Princess would need to respond to their request, one way or another .
“Qi Ye is only a Proud Son of the Underworld . He is unworthy of the Princess personally taking action . Qingzhu, you go and exchange a few blows with him . ” Someone took the lead to recommend a replacement . The speaker was still the College Chief of the Tianshen Academy . He asked Jian Qingzhu to accept Qi Ye’s challenge .
Aside from Jian Qingzhu, a few other cultivators walked out too . They were all cultivators from the Divine Prefecture . They were all young cultivators who were sent by their respective forces to fight Qi Ye on behalf of the Princess . Naturally, all of them had the same goal in mind .
Hence, in the blink of an eye, there were actually a few cultivators of the same generation who took a step forward . All of them wanted to fight on behalf of Princess Donghuang .
No one would give up such a good opportunity to showcase themselves .
On the other hand, Ye Futian stood quietly to one side . Not only was the situation unclear now, even if all these people were defeated, but Ye Futian also would still not fight for Princess Donghuang .

He also wanted to see how powerful Princess Donghuang was . It didn’t bother him at all that someone had challenged the Princess .
He also intended to witness in person how talented the only daughter of Donghuang the Great was .
The Lord of the Underworld revealed a scornful look when he saw many people volunteering to fight for the Princess . He had expected this . With Princess Donghuang’s status, naturally, many people wanted to promote themselves before her .
The Lord of the Underworld did not say anything . From various directions, many people stepped out . They were cultivators from the alliances of the Dark Court . Streaks of terrifying aura permeated the space . The Lord of the Underworld said arrogantly, “Since everyone wants to give it a try, then we will not hold back too . ”
As for Qi Ye, the Proud Son of the Underworld, his gaze was still dead set on Princess Donghuang .
Extremely sharp dark divine light shot out from Qi Ye’s eyes in the direction of Princess Donghuang . He took a step forward . However, another silhouette blocked him . It was the Tianshen Academy’s peerless Proud Son of Heaven, Jian Qingzhu .
Jian Qingzhu was not trying to win Princess Donghuang’s good graces . He was already shouldering some responsibilities . This was his mission . Now that the clan had placed all their hopes on him, he naturally had to work hard to bear these responsibilities .
Everything was going well for the clan when passing on teachings in the Void Realm . As for the clan’s goal of wanting to return to the Divine Prefecture, he would be the one to achieve it . He would bring his clan and their mission to the Divine Prefecture .
Qi Ye swept an indifferent glance at him . Another silhouette also appeared in front of Jian Qingzhu . This silhouette was jet-black from head to toe with a burly, domineering figure . It seemed to be clad in dark armor and was imposing . Destructive dark light flowed on the divine armor . Just looking at it gave people an extremely pressured feeling .
This was a member of a very powerful dark force of the Dark World . They had special talents and were very powerful .
This silhouette charged directly at Jian Qingzhu . Jet-black light swept across the space like a bolt of divine light . He punched out, and endless jet-black light descended from the sky . It covered the space and pierced through everything, crashing towards Jian Qingzhu’s figure .
Jian Qingzhu was expressionless . An extremely dazzling Scroll of the Great Path suddenly flew out from his body, shining brightly . Divine light circled around him . The Scroll of the Great Path resonated with the heavens and the earth . Its light shone for tens of thousands of Zhang . The golden divine light instantly blocked out the sky and the sun .

This Scroll of the Great Path was the Divine Wheel that Jian Qingzhu had forged . Its divine light was flawless and lit up countless patterns .
Immediately, this part of the sky was enveloped in the halo emanated by the Scroll of the Great Path .
Jian Qingzhu was surrounded by the halo too . He extended his palm, and a gigantic golden palm print was unleashed . In the Scroll of the Great Path, countless huge golden palm prints covered the space and stuck forward . They were domineering and similar to the Giant Palm of Buddha .
Rumble… Two forces collided . The huge golden palm print crushed the dark light . Jian Qingzhu managed to fully block the opponent’s menacing attack in an instant . This scene caused many people to reveal surprised expressions .
Everyone in the Nine Realms knew that Ye Futian was very powerful . On the contrary, even though Jian Qingzhu had great fame too, he had never participated in any battles after proving his Way . He had been training devotedly .
Now, he impressed the crowd with only one attack . The power of his attack was definitely very overbearing . Since the College Chief of the Tianshen Academy intended to send him to train under Princess Donghuang, naturally, his ability would not be weak .
When Ye Futian saw the enchanting scene, he thought of his two older brothers—fourth older brother, Luo Fan from the Cottage, and second older brother, Nan Zhai from Dali .
However, Jian Qingzhu was clearly much more powerful than both his older brothers .
With this attack, Ye Futian sensed that Jian Qingzhu’s ability was not weaker than that of Di Wu .
Of course, Ye Futian always had a good impression of Jian Qingzhu . This person had a nice personality . However, the two of them had seldom encountered each other and could not be considered friends!
