"In the end, the Peak Master of the Gracious Sword Sect exploded himself to buy ti for everyone. However, just after that, a second explosion occurred, and that was the main reason behind the majority of the destruction around us."
Qin Wentian finished recounting the incident.
Emperor Ye slightly frowned.
'This kid is really underestimating …'
As an Emperor, he was experienced enough to see through the lies and deceit.
However, he wasn't interested in getting to the bottom of this.
'The person we cared about is alive. When he recovers, we will know the truth anyway.'
Emperor Ye looked at the frozen landslide above then and said, "You're from the Heaven Oracle Sect, right? What is a Core Disciple from such a huge sect doing in this small city?"
Qin Wentian pursed his lips and imdiately thought of a reply, "I am… I am here to find soone important."
"Oh? And who that might be? I want to know what makes you think that killing thousands of people is a good move."
Qin Wentian clenched his teeth, "I was just taking revenge. This city has taken everything from - my cultivator, my longevity, my love - everything! Why should I not retaliate? Also, the reason I was here was to find the Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun."
"Who?" Both Butler Liu and Emperor Ye suddenly turned their heads at him.
"Crown Prince Ye Tia Yun… you don't know about him?" Qin Wentian was puzzled by their expression.
Emperor Ye and Butler Liu made small eye contact and subtly nodded their heads at each other.
"Where is Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun?" Butler Liu asked first.
Everything else was a second priority if Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun was involved.
Qin Wentian didn't reply and looked at them cautiously.
Seeing his act, Butler Liu took out the clan token and brought it in front of Qin Wentain.
"The Great Ye Clan!" Qin Wentian was quite shocked by coincidence, and then, taking a gulp, he replied, "I only saw Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun once before the explosion. Maybe he's also under one of the buildings?"
Emperor Ye frowned, and with a flick of his finger, all the rubble around them was clear.
With a quick scan, he assessed the situation.
"He's not here."
But Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun wasn't here.
Not even his dead body or a drop of blood was here.
"Are you sure you saw Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun?" Emperor Ye asked, "What was he up to? Why would he co here?"
Qin Wentian regretted not telling these two mysterious n about the powerful man.
"I don't know what he was here for, but I know for sure he was here for sothing very big and important. I was mainly tasked to confirm if it was really him."
"So you're not sure if that was Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun?" Emperor Ye let out a sigh, "The only reason why I am patient with you is that I want to hear the truth from you. I can tell before your mouth even opens whether you want to lie or reveal the truth."
Qin Wentian pursed his lips.
'Looks like there's no way out.'
"Actually, Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun was a part of the Gracious Sword Sect, and they were here to fight the Devil Sect. But after everything was over, a man ca and did all this."
"Do you know who it was?" Emperor Ye frowned.
Qin Wentian shook his head, "I don't know his identity. However, he was in peak Qi Stabilization Realm, but he thoroughly suppressed Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun. Even his Sword Domain was nothing but air in front of that man."
"Sword Domain? Ye Tian Yun is still in Qi Stabilization Realm… how does he have Sword Domain? And he still lost?"
Qin Wentian nodded his head, "It was hard to believe even though I was personally witnessing it; however, this is the truth."
"Where are they now?" Emperor Ye frowned.
"Brother Ye!"
Suddenly, Butler Liu called him from behind.
"Co here!"
Emperor Ye turned around and saw Butler Liu standing near a corpse.
Upon closer observation, he found out that it was a girl who was still breathing, albeit very weakly.
"Do you know her?" Emperor Ye asked in confusion.
Butler Liu slowly nodded his head, "I was just searching for the Crown Prince's traces when I suddenly noticed this girl. She's unconscious."
"Who's she?" Emperor Ye asked again.
"She's Yuan Xuming's daughter. I think her na was Yuan Shuchun?" Butler Liu tilted his head as he stared at the unconscious girl.
Taking out a pill from his spatial ring, he put one in her mouth. He had given a similar one to his son too.
"What's Yuan Xuming's daughter doing here? Her robes… it is very similar to Jun Xie's… it looks like she's also from the Gracious Sword Sect."
Butler Liu suddenly let out a smile, "To think my son Jun Xie and Yuan Xuming's daughter Yuan Shuchun would know each other through their fake identities. Haha, I am sure they are good friends."
Emperor Ye nodded, "Now, only one person of this trio remains. Where's he?"
Emperor Ye frowned and began to look through his divine sense.
Suddenly he noticed sothing -
"This…" For the first ti, a shocked expression ford on Emperor Ye's face.
"What is it, Brother Ye?"
Emperor Ye frowned, and after a long ti of staring at an unknown place, he said, "I can notice a lot of Heavenly Constraints in this place."
"Heavenly Constraints only appear when a huge anomaly disrupts the balance. And with the number of countless Heavenly Constraints at this place… it's as if the whole Heavens is suppressing a very powerful existence."
"Who could it be, Brother Ye?" Butler Liu stood up and looked around.
Emperor Ye pursed his lips, "Soone who shouldn't exist at all. Soone who shouldn't appear at all. Soone who can disrupt fate itself and disrupts the space-ti balance.
