Subduing the Netherworld Emperor was a decision made by Ye Lingtian on a whim.
After all, at this moment, he was desperately short of capable people around him.
If he had to handle everything personally, even someone with three heads and six arms would probably find it difficult to cope.
Moreover, the benefits of having the Netherworld Emperor submit to him are obvious.
He could easily have arranged for the Netherworld Emperor to guard the Great Xia, thus providing the Great Xia with strong protection. He himself could then embark on his journey to the Immortal Realm with peace of mind.
On the one hand, it allows him to reunite with his son whom he hasn't seen in a long time.
On the other hand, this opportunity can also be used to find Yiyi's whereabouts and to explore the true identity of that mysterious woman.
When it comes to this mysterious woman, Ye Lingtian really knows nothing about her.
However, judging from all the signs, she must have come from that legendary supreme realm. Otherwise, how could she have so easily evaded his incredibly keen perception?
What's even more astonishing is that this woman seemed to know everything about his every move.
Ye Lingtian couldn't help but have doubts, and even began to suspect that this mysterious woman's strength might far surpass his own.
After all, he has now entered the Heavenly Emperor Realm and stands at the pinnacle of the entire universe. It is no exaggeration to call him the Lord of the Universe.
If someone were to surpass him in strength, just how terrifying would that person be?
Just thinking about it sent chills down Ye Lingtian's spine, and he dared not delve any deeper into the thought.
"this……"
Upon hearing that Ye Lingtian wanted to subdue him, the Netherworld Emperor was momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Although he knew that Ye Lingtian came from the mysterious and unpredictable Supreme Realm, he had no idea what kind of strength Ye Lingtian possessed, or how he compared to the Void Clan.
As for the true strength of the Void Clan, although he had never witnessed the whole picture, he had already felt a terrifying and suffocating pressure from the few Void Clan members he had come into contact with.
That power seemed to emanate from an endless abyss, deep and dark, awe-inspiring. This feeling was completely different from the feeling evoked by Ye Lingtian standing before him at this moment.
Therefore, even someone as experienced as him found it difficult to accurately judge whether Ye Lingtian or the Void Clan was stronger.
Just as he was struggling with his inner conflict, he heard Ye Lingtian slowly say, "If you are unwilling, then so be it. I never force others to do things."
At this moment, the Netherworld Emperor showed a hesitant expression, clearly weighing the pros and cons intensely in his mind.
Ye Lingtian, however, remained calm and composed, seemingly unconcerned about whether the Netherworld Emperor was willing to submit.
For Ye Lingtian, if the Netherworld Emperor could sincerely submit to him, it would certainly bring him some assistance. However, if the other party insisted on not submitting, he would not feel any regret whatsoever.
After all, in Ye Lingtian's eyes, a mere Immortal Emperor was nothing special.
With his current abilities and status, he could easily cross the boundaries of time and space, travel to the Chaos Realm, and summon the disciples who have always followed him, with just a thought.
These disciples were all exceptionally powerful, far surpassing ordinary Immortal Emperors. They shone like dazzling stars, possessing immense power capable of shaking the heavens and earth.
However, Ye Lingtian did not intend to summon those disciples here immediately.
After all, if a large number of powerful individuals suddenly flocked into this realm, it would inevitably attract the attention and scrutiny of the Great Dao.
Although Ye Lingtian was not afraid of this situation, it would undoubtedly bring him a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Ye Lingtian decided to wait until he went to the Supreme Realm in the future before summoning the disciples of the Nine Heavens Palace.
Just then, the Netherworld Emperor, who had been silent all along, finally broke the silence and said, "I am willing to submit to you, senior."
He knew he had no better choice. Even if he refused to bow down to Ye Lingtian, given the Void Clan's modus operandi, they would never let him off easily.
Since it's a dead end either way, we might as well take a gamble and bet that Ye Lingtian really has the ability to fight against the fearsome Void Clan.
Or perhaps the Void Clan will let him go because they are wary of Ye Lingtian.
"Alright, in that case, from now on you'll stay by my side!"
Ye Lingtian said calmly.
They then took the Netherworld Emperor directly back to the Ye family.
Before leaving, Ye Lingtian glanced at a certain spot in the starry sky, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
After Ye Lingtian and the other person disappeared, the once calm starry sky rippled again, and then the Heavenly Dao incarnation reappeared.
"I never expected this person to be from the Primordial Chaos Realm!"
"I haven't heard of any important figures from the Hongmeng Realm descending to the mortal world!"
The Heavenly Dao incarnation revealed a bitter smile. No wonder this person was so terrifying; he was actually from the Primordial Chaos Realm.
The Supreme Realm that Ye Lingtian mentioned is actually the Primordial Realm, which is equivalent to the Chaos Realm, only the name is different.
"How could the Great Dao allow such a person to descend to the mortal realm? Wouldn't that disrupt the order of the universe?"
"Why……"
The avatar of the Heavenly Dao sighed softly, then slowly dissipated.
The Great Dao is the highest Dao of a universe, and these Heavenly Daos are merely avatars of the Great Dao that have branched out to manage various realms.
The Great Dao itself is primarily responsible for maintaining order in the Primordial Chaos Realm.
Therefore, the Heavenly Dao could never understand why Ye Lingtian appeared in this mortal realm.
...
The Ye family mansion is quiet and solemn.
Ye Lingtian brought the Netherworld Emperor to this place. His face was calm as water, and his gaze was indifferent yet revealed a hint of majesty. He spoke slowly, "From now on, you will stay here!"
The Netherworld Emperor bowed slightly to show his respect and replied obediently, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Since choosing to submit to Ye Lingtian, the Netherworld Emperor quickly adjusted his mindset and adapted to his new identity in the shortest possible time.
Ye Lingtian put his hands behind his back and continued, "From now on, your task is to protect the Ye family and this vast land of Great Xia. If anyone dares to set foot here with ill intentions towards Great Xia, you should know how to deal with them without further ado."
The Netherworld Emperor's expression hardened, and he nodded solemnly, replying, "Yes."
Ye Lingtian seemed to see through the lingering concerns in the Netherworld Emperor's heart, and then comforted him, "As for the Void Clan that you are so wary of, you can rest assured. In this region, no one can shake you in the slightest."
After saying that, Ye Lingtian's figure gradually became blurred, as if he had merged into the surrounding void, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
However, while the Ye family appeared to be at peace, Ye Lingtian had already meticulously set up an unparalleled killing formation.
This killing formation is incredibly powerful. If any expert above the Immortal Emperor level were to enter the Ye family's territory with malicious intent, the killing formation would be activated instantly, unleashing endless killing power to mercilessly annihilate them, causing them to vanish into thin air and die a violent death on the spot.
