Eternal Holy Emperor

After the events, Cang Jitian was the first to bid farewell.

"Brother Ye Chen, today's battle was honorable even in defeat. Thank you for your guidance. I have some matters to attend to, so I must take my leave!"

Boom——

Cang Jitian directly broke through the void and disappeared entirely.

Ye Chen knew that Cang Jitian was likely returning to focus on comprehending the Ten-layered Heaven Level, and to achieve the Supreme Method as soon as possible.

The Sun God, Yuan Yang God King, Fengg Wu, Ancient Demon God, and other True Kings did not linger either. They bid farewell one after another and broke through the void to leave.

In the end, only Ye Chen and Ye Gucheng were left in the starry sky.

Ye Chen looked at Ye Gucheng and said, "Brother Gucheng, this way."

Ye Gucheng followed Ye Chen away from the location to a barren star. As soon as they stopped, Ye Chen waved his sleeve to seal off the entire void, isolating all divine senses from spying, and straightforwardly asked, "Brother Gucheng, may I ask, what is the relationship between the Ten Thousand Domain Ye Family and the Ye Family beyond the Nine Layers Emperor Pass?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Gucheng looked at Ye Chen with shock as though struck by lightning, clearly not expecting Ye Chen to mention such matters right off the bat.

It was evident that such matters were not something that ordinary people were qualified to know.

Ye Gucheng's gaze was burning as he stared directly at Ye Chen across from him, asking in a deep voice, "You know about the Nine Layers Emperor Pass?"

"I learned about it occasionally from some sources," Ye Chen described lightly. "It's said that the Nine Layers Emperor Pass was established by an Emperor from the Mythical Era, and beyond it live some invincible races, including a mysterious Ye Family. But I wonder if this Ye Family is that Ye Family?"

In the last sentence, Ye Chen's eyes bore straight into Ye Gucheng's, unblinkingly, as if piercing through.

This concerned his parents in this life and other members of his clan, making it a question impossible to avoid asking.

After a moment of silence, Ye Gucheng finally nodded and said, "Yes, the Ye Family beyond the Nine Layers Emperor Pass is my Ye Family."

Although he had speculated as much, upon hearing it, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel as though struck by lightning, looking somewhat surprised at Ye Gucheng.

In that case, wouldn't it mean that the small Ye Family from a humble town on the Tiandu Continent was actually a branch of the Ye Family, the Emperor and Royal Family of Ten Thousand Domains?

Who could have imagined that the strongest individual born in that small Ye Family over a thousand years was no more than a Demigod, never even reaching Divinity Transformation, although the true lineage could be traced back to the Emperor and Royal Family overlooking the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.

That was the most powerful force in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, far superior to general Immortal Forces and even stronger than the Supreme Sacred Land, making even the Human Emperor Palace, the top force, quite wary of them.

After all, they had produced invincible families of Emperors and Royals in the past.

Ye Chen sighed softly; even at this moment, he felt a hard-to-describe sensation, perhaps due to the shock of coming from such a powerful family.

However, he was not an ordinary individual after all and was a Supreme Genius with a strong mental realm, calming down quickly, he said, "I'd like to hear more."

Ye Gucheng gave Ye Chen a strange glance, shook his head, and declined politely, "These already involve family secrets, which generally cannot be shared with outsiders. I'm sorry."

Ye Chen, however, didn't give up, his eyes burning brightly, suddenly saying, "Brother Gucheng, if I tell you that I am also a member of the Ye Family, would you believe it?"

Undoubtedly, this statement was akin to a bolt from the blue, even shaking Ye Gucheng's mental realm. Upon hearing it, he couldn't help but stare at Ye Chen in wide-eyed astonishment, appearing incredibly shocked and surprised.

"What did you say?"

Ye Chen said, "I said, I am actually a member of the Ye Family."

He was still dumbfounded, utterly dumbfounded, because it was too unbelievable. Ye Gucheng stared blankly at Ye Chen for a long time, then shook his head, "Impossible, Brother Qian Yue, your surname is Qian, and mine is Ye. How could it be possible?"

Ye Chen replied, "But in this life, my surname is Ye."

Ye Gucheng was slightly taken aback, then gave a helpless laugh, as he had always only remembered Ye Chen's previous life's name, Qian Yue, because it was so striking, forgetting that his name in this life was actually Ye Chen.

But he still shook his head, "Even so, it's unlikely. It's said that you were born on Tiandu Continent, which is too far apart. I don't recall the Ye Family having any branches left behind on Tiandu Continent."

"The most important thing is that when members of the Emperor and Royal Family's same clan meet, their bloodlines resonate. But between us, there was none, which means it's unlikely."

This has always been evidence for members of the Emperor and Royal Family to recognize each other, stemming from the deep bloodline of an Emperor and Royal. Even if extremely weak, it far surpasses normal bloodlines, much like the True Dragon Bloodline; regardless of how weak the clan's blood is, it will create some resonance.

Especially considering himself and Ye Chen, Ye Gucheng, no need to say he could be a True King, even an ancient preserved True King Talent, with bloodline power almost comparable to the third generation.

Ye Chen was also so strong, with power even comparable to a Supreme Descendant. His bloodline power, no matter how weak, should not be feeble. Yet meeting Ye Chen, there was no resonance; clearly, it was impossible they were of the same clan.

But Ye Chen suddenly laughed, laughed loudly, so much that Ye Gucheng felt it odd, "What's so funny?"

Ye Chen shook his head, "Brother Gucheng, it's not that our bloodlines don't resonate, but by my generation, the Emperor and Royal Bloodline has likely thinned to a degree we can't fathom. You should know in the Ye Family on my Tiandu Continent, the strongest born in a thousand years is just a Demigod. If there were strong bloodline power, despite the Tiandu Continent's environment being far from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, it wouldn't just be a Demigod either.

Moreover, you must understand, the Combat Saint Body is the most overbearing constitution. Although the Emperor and Royal Bloodline is powerful, thinned to my generation to such an extent, it is scarcely noticeable, far from comparable, and should be directly suppressed, much less resonate."

"Furthermore, I can say something harsh here, my Ye Chen's Holy Body Bloodline is undoubtedly not weaker than the pure Emperor and Royal Bloodline of a Supreme Heir, perhaps even stronger."

Upon saying this, his eyes shone with lightning, emitting the most brilliant light.

This was not something he said casually; his Combat Saint Body Bloodline was just too formidable, having fused too much into it, with Nine Tribulations Gold, Chaos blood, Ten Thousand Dao Traces, etc., surpassing everything else. Even the bloodline strength of a Supreme Heir, I'm afraid, might not match up to Ye Chen.

Moreover, Combat Saint Blood has always been hugely domineering, inheriting the Saint Ancestor's overpowering and domineering traits, thus any insufficiently powerful bloodline would only be suppressed.
