Chapter 598: Chapter 584: The White Jade Covered in Dust

Emperor Valley!

He has been a part of the Taiyi Holy Palace for quite some time now, and setting aside the other Cultivation Techniques and Combat Techniques, the most attractive place for him was the treasure land left by the Undefeated Emperor within the Holy Palace of yesteryear, which naturally was Emperor Valley.

It is said that the Martial Arts Enlightenment of the Undefeated Emperor remains there, and it is also the foundation of the entire Taiyi Holy Palace. If he could enter, it would definitely be of great help to him on his journey on the Fusion Emperor Road.

Regrettably, within the entire Taiyi Holy Palace, only the Holy Palace Master and the devilish disciples of the Main Hall have the qualifications to enter Emperor Valley. Yet now, he actually possesses the qualification to enter for half an hour—it could be said that he has set a precedent in Taiyi Holy Palace.

At this moment, most of the resentment and anger in Xiao Ye’s heart dissipated. As for Lin Feng’s execution, he couldn’t be bothered to care anymore.

"Given such a judgment, are you satisfied, Xiao Ye?" The Holy Palace Master’s gaze turned towards Xiao Ye as he asked.

Xiao Ye took a deep breath and then nodded: "Satisfied!"

Although he was extremely dissatisfied with the Holy Palace Master before, the current judgment had exceeded his expectations by far, and of course, he had nothing to say.

"Very well." The Holy Palace Master’s eyes flashed a hint of satisfaction as he nodded towards Xiao Ye and then leisurely turned, ready to fly back to the island above.

Just at this time, Prince Donghuang, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up, bowing towards the Holy Palace Master and saying, "Palace Master, there is something I do not understand, and I wish to seek your guidance!"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Palace Master’s eyebrows rose slightly as he turned indifferently and looked towards Prince Donghuang: "What is it?"

If before, because of the guilt towards Xiao Ye, he could tolerate the disturbances caused by Prince Donghuang and Nangong Xingyu, but now even Xiao Ye had no objections, and Prince Donghuang was still causing trouble, this naturally irritated him a great deal.

Even the surrounding Martial Artists were shocked.

This genius from the Unrivaled Emperor Domain, Prince Donghuang, was really too bold. Did he really think that with the backing of the Unrivaled Emperor Domain, he could act recklessly without fear?

"Brother Donghuang, you and Brother Nangong have done enough. Xiao Ye will remember this in his heart. Please step down now!" Xiao Ye couldn’t resist flying over and gesturing for Prince Donghuang to step down.

Today’s events had already caused enough embarrassment for Taiyi Holy Palace. If Prince Donghuang continued to make trouble, probably even people from the Unrivaled Emperor Domain wouldn’t be able to tolerate it, which might affect his standing in the Emperor Domain.

He did not want his friends to suffer because of his own affairs.

"Brother Xiao, rest assured, I just have a question that I want to ask. The Holy Palace Master, being a famous peerless powerhouse of Central State, surely will not take action against a junior like me." Prince Donghuang smiled faintly and stepped forward under the gaze of the crowd.

"Holy Palace Master, I have a friend who participated in the Dynasty Battle of the Four Great States with me."

"In terms of cultivation, aptitude, and strength, I was far inferior to him at that time. He is an unparalleled genius, and even the envoys of the Four Great Emperor Domains extended him an invitation after the conclusion of the Dynasty Battle."

Prince Donghuang slowly began his narration, and the entire plaza broke into uproar, with many Martial Artists drawing a breath of cold air.

For all envoys from the Four Great Emperor Domains to extend an invitation, it indicated how formidable Prince Donghuang’s friend must be.

Only the Emperor Realm powerhouses from the Four Great Emperor Domains above the heavens could guess who Prince Donghuang was referring to. Their gazes unconsciously shifted toward Xiao Ye.

"However, this friend of mine, in the end, rejected the invitations of the Four Great Emperor Domains and instead joined your Taiyi Holy Palace, but unfortunately, he did not receive the slightest attention. Upon joining, he was only a disciple of the Yellow Hall, which holds the lowest status among the Four Main Halls of the Holy Palace, without any special privileges."

"Even though my own aptitude is poorer, I joined the Unrivaled Emperor Domain and received cultivation of many resources. Now, my cultivation has soared, increasing dramatically. You might ask, how exactly does your Holy Palace select its talents?"

"If the resources spent on cultivating me had been invested in my friend, his current strength would definitely be several times stronger than mine," Prince Donghuang said with piercing eyes, staring at the Holy Palace Master.

As his words fell, the plaza suddenly became deathly quiet.

Anyone with a brain could realize that Xiao Ye, standing beside him, was the friend Prince Donghuang was talking about.

They really couldn’t believe that this seemingly ordinary young man had been so formidable in the past. Indeed, Xiao Ye joining Taiyi Holy Palace was like a treasure hidden in dust.

The Holy Palace Master’s expression changed slightly, looking at Xiao Ye with surprise—it was also the first time he was seriously regarding Xiao Ye.

He is the Master of the Holy Palace, who had always been focused on his own cultivation, rarely meddling in the affairs of the Holy Palace, and naturally did not know about Xiao Ye’s past. The decision to assign Xiao Ye to the Yellow Hall was made when an Elder came to ask, and he had dismissed it casually.

"This young man was so formidable before? What is going on with those Elders of the Holy Palace, that they never mentioned this to me!" A cold light flashed in the Holy Palace Master’s eyes, and anger rose in his chest.

With this said, Xiao Ye was definitely a terrifying genius. If given enough resources for cultivation, he would surely become a new devilish disciple of the Main Hall. At this moment, the Holy Palace Master’s dissatisfaction with Prince Donghuang turned into gratitude instead.

If it weren’t for Prince Donghuang, Xiao Ye might have been lost in the vast ranks of the Holy Palace Disciples.

"I shall investigate this matter. If what you say is true, I will naturally focus on cultivating him," the Holy Palace Master stated.

Hearing the Holy Palace Master’s somewhat vague reply, Prince Donghuang slightly furrowed his brow, and was about to continue speaking, but he was pulled back by Xiao Ye.

"Haha, the Taiyi Holy Palace is full of great talents, numerous geniuses. Just yesterday, we witnessed a surge of someone entering the Martial Arts Extreme Realm from the direction of the Earth Hall among the Four Main Halls."

"Unfortunately, being in the Holy Palace, we cannot barge in at will, so we are not sure which disciple exactly has entered the Martial Arts Extreme Realm, but now it seems we have the answer," announced two hearty voices piercing through the air. Immediately following, two elders dressed in brocade robes flew in side-by-side, respectfully saluting towards the Holy Palace Master.

Boom!

Their words exploded in the air above the plaza like thunder, rendering everyone speechless.

The Holy Palace Master’s expression became stiff, his gaze unnaturally shifting towards Xiao Ye, emotions churning wildly in his heart.

From their words, it was clear that they were suggesting Xiao Ye was the disciple who had entered the Martial Arts Extreme Realm!

"It’s been discovered," Xiao Ye lightly furrowed his brows, then sighed helplessly within.
