Imperial God Emperor

One arrow broke his leg? 

A thought flashed across Ye Qingyu’s mind, but was very quickly ruled out by him. 

“It voluntary broke its leg, that expert of the law enforcement team of the Demon Spider Race broke its leg itself, and then separated itself from the space-time passage, that must be it...” Lin Yi reluctantly came over under the escort of two Imperial guards, looked at the giant leg in astonishment and said, “It sensed a deadly threat, it must be that arrow that made it feel the danger of death, so it broke its own leg.” 

Broke its leg voluntarily? 

Ye Qingyu and Lin Zheng exchanged a glance, believing in Lin Y’s judgment at once. 

“Maybe it’s because of the [Supreme Ice Flame] on the arrow.” Ye Qingyu guessed in his mind. This was the only explanation that was reasonable.

“The Demon Spider Race expert made a huge mistake, it was too arrogant. It came here by following the curse mark on us Greater One Sect disciples and tried to forcibly descend into your domain. In the end it was too strong that the heavens did not allow it so it could not descend, and could not sense the real situation of this world. When it was struck by Brother Ye’s arrow and felt that kind of power... In its confusion, it made the wrong judgment...” 

Lin Yi looked at Ye Qingyu and the others. “This time you guys were lucky to avoid a tragedy, but the Demon Spider Race are the most vengeful. You made it break its leg, it will not let you off. It will soon come again, at that time...” 

In the end, Lin Yi did not finish his sentence. 

But what he meant was obvious. 

When the Demon Spider Race comes, it would be the doomsday of the entire domain.  

“Why don’t you let us go, we are all part of the Human Race, and we do not want to implicate you. Us Greater One Sect disciples can leave through the Domain Gate.” Lin Yi, seeing that no one said a word, hesitantly made a suggestion. “Your domain is too weak, and the Central Domain Gate coordinates were newly generated, drifting indefinitely. The Demon Spider Race found it here because of the curse mark on our body. If we leave, they would not find you for the time being, you will perhaps have some years of peace!” 

Hearing this, all the people’s eyes lit up. 

But Lin Zheng was still staring at Lin Yi, “But that giant spider has already come once today, can’t it mark the coordinates?” 

Lin Yi replied, “What’s frightening about the Demon Spider Race are its powerful abilities and spider toxins. The Demon Spider Race is not good at space-related powers, so they can only rely on the spider curse to determine its directions. Believe me, if there is no curse mark, they will not be able to find your domain within a short time.” 

Ye Qingyu grunted, “But I have a curse on my body.”

Lin Yi glanced at him and gritted his teeth as he said, “You can leave with us.” 

“No, if Palace Lord Ye leaves with you, that is just throwing his life away? Sooner or later you guys will be hunted down by the Demon Spider Race.” Upon hearing the suggestion, without waiting for the others to speak, Lin Zheng was the first to reject the suggestion. 

What a joke, Ye Qingyu’s identity was too special.

Even if Heaven Wasteland Domain was really facing a crisis, they must not gamble with the safety of Ye Qingyu.

Ye Qingyu himself also did not know what to say. 

He lowered his head and began to consider the proposal very carefully.  

Lin Yi hurriedly explained, “Of course he’s not throwing away his life. Once we returned to Clear River Domain, we can use our sect secret technique to contact the top experts of our sect, then it will be safe.” 

“If it’s as simple as you said, then why did you people flee in any path that you could and were swept into Heaven Wasteland Domain by the space-time current?” Lin Zheng questioned him back. 

Lin Yi very patiently explained, “At that time it was because we were being chased by the Demon Spider Race, we fled in any path we could find to escape. We were running for our life, there was no time to cast the secret technique. This time, if we are lucky, arrive at some remote places, then the Demon Spider Race would not find us so soon and we will have the opportunity meet up with the masters of Greater One Sect.”

“What if your unlucky?” Qu Hanshan who had remained quiet all along, suddenly asked questions.  

Lin Yi with a wry smile, replied, “If unlucky... well, we will die. We can only make a gamble now.” 

“Haha, you don’t seem like a person to have the courage to gamble,” Lin Zheng said bluntly. 

Lin Yi’s face turned red. “This is because we were under great pressure. If we continue to stay in your domain, we will sooner or later be found and killed by the Demon Spider Race, we can only take a risk now.”

Qu Hanshan suddenly thought of an idea, “Why don’t you contact your sect masters here in Heaven Wasteland Domain using your secret technique and ask the Greater One Sect experts to come here?” 

Lin Yi clenched his teeth and said angrily, “Cross-domain communication is not such an easy thing, with our ability it is not possible. If we could, we would have notified the elders of the sect to come here already. Would we have waited until now? Would we have been imprisoned by you? Moreover your domain cannot withstand the power of Heaven Ascension, even if the true top experts of our sect arrives, their strength will be limited.” 

Lin Zheng slightly lowered his head when he heard this. 

He had communicated with the evil spirits of other domains before, although they were only using each other, he also knew that it was extremely difficult to communicate with powers outside the domain. Otherwise the surviving powers of the sect era would have contacted with their race, would they have waited until now? 

There was already a decision in Ye Qingyu’s heart.

“Okay, I’ll leave with you.” He looked to Lin Yi. 

When Lin Yi heard what was said he instantly breathed a sigh of relief. “This is undoubtedly the most correct choice. Brother Ye is young and gifted, and is a rare genius. I believe that when the elders of the Greater One Sect see you, they would treat you differently, and may accept you into the sect. At that time we will be fellow disciples.”

Ye Qingyu smiled and said nothing. 

He may not be willing to enter the Greater One Sect.  

“This...” Lin Zheng said hesitatingly, “Palace Lord Ye, you have to consider carefully, don’t take the risk.” 

“Yes, Palace Lord Ye, please reconsider this,” Qu Hanshan added. 

“Hmph, I too do not believe in these Greater One Sect disciples, who knows what’s on the mind of these spoiled fellows,” Old Commander Li Guangbi said frankly.  

“Lord, they are right, you must reconsider.” Gao Han also tried to persuade him.

Ye Qingyu looked at the crowd, and said with a smile, “I obviously understand everyone’s good intentions, but since things have come to this, I must do so. I have the curse mark, this is the best solution. If I stay, it would cause endless trouble to Heaven Wasteland Domain.” 

Although he was smiling, he said each and every word resolutely.

Anyone that was familiar with Ye Qingyu would know that when he used this tone of voice, he had made up his mind and would not change it. 

……

Because of the presence of the curse mark, and also for the safety of Heaven Wasteland Domain, Ye Qingyu and the other people must leave within a day to avoid the Demon Spider Race again following the curse mark to find the coordinates of Heaven Wasteland Domain.

Everything came too suddenly and too hurriedly. 

There were many things that Ye Qingyu did not have time to arrange before he leaves.

Bai Yuanxing, Jin Ling’er and the other people naturally had to stay behind. Although they were reluctant to part with him, they knew that, if they insisted on following him, they not only would not help Ye Qingyu, but also would become a burden to him. 

Ximen Yeshui, Wen Wan, and Gao Han also insisted to follow him, but Ye Qingyu persuaded against it. Firstly, it was because the [Light Palace] needed masters to keep watch and secondly... although these people were a lot stronger than Bai Yuanxing, facing against the experts of the Demon Spider Race, they most likely would not be of much help.

Most of all, this time Ye Qingyu was gambling on luck. The future was uncertain, and he did not want them to encounter any danger.

Dugu Quan, Ouyang Buping and Lin Baiyi also came upon receiving the news. Knowing that they could not persuade Ye Qingyu, they gifted him with many protecting objects instead. He may not necessarily use them, but these were all their kind intentions so Ye Qingyu accepted them and taught the true meaning of some ancient characters to the Divine Doctor and the Pill God.

Lin Zheng, Qu Hanshan, Li Guangbi, Yu Feiyan, and even First Princess Yu Junqing, one after another, came to see Ye Qingyu to try to persuade him. In the end they each gifted him with some treasures and other things.

But throughout, Yu Junhan and Yu Xiaoxing had not showed up, which was somewhat unusual.

Yu Junhan had disappeared for some days, and her whereabouts were unknown.

Yu Xiaoxing met up with Ye Qingyu the day before, but for some reason she still hasn’t appeared today.

After everything had been arranged, Ye Qingyu and the Greater One Sect disciples came to the Central Domain Gate together.

Lin Yi and the several Greater One Sect disciples were examining the heavenly walls of the Domain Gate and seemed to have determined something. 

Lin Zheng came over, handing a jade object to Ye Qingyu. 

“Her highness left this behind and told me to give it to you in a critical time, I think it is the time now. The things inside may explain some of the questions that you have in your mind. When you have time, take a closer look.”

The Her Highness that Lin Zheng mentioned was obviously Yu Junhan. 

Ye Qingyu was slightly surprised. 

Could there be other reasons why Yu Junhan was not seen these days? 

As he was pondering things over, the Central Domain Gate suddenly opened again, and the space rippling water mirror reappeared, flickering in the middle of the giant gate.

“Yes, yes I’ve found the place!” 

One of the Greater One Sect disciples roared with excitement.

“Finally we can leave, quickly go.” 

“When we return to Clear River Domain, we must contact the sect masters first.”

The Greater One Sect disciples seemed very hurried.

It was evident that the looming crisis in Heaven Wasteland Domain and the arrival of the Demon Spider Race had made them extremely uneasy.

“Brother Ye, time is pressing, let’s go now,” Li Yi urged. 

Ye Qingyu nodded.

He turned around and came to the edge of the earth fire sword pit, storing the [Cloud Top Cauldron] into the dantian world.

The [Blood Drinker Sword] was not yet refined, it was just missing a crucial moment.  There should be another opportunity to refine it.

After a pause, Ye Qingyu carried the silly dog Little Nine who was fast asleep before he turned around and bid farewell to everyone. Then together with Lin Yi and the others walked through the central domain door, which was now in an open state.  

“Farewell for now, Heaven Wasteland Domain. I will definitely return. I will enter the Imperial Ancestral Temple again, to find out the mystery of my life. I will absolutely discover just what is the relationship between Yu Junhan, the War God and me.” 

As he stepped through the Domain Gate, Ye Qingyu cast another glance behind and secretly vowed in his heart.
