Chat group: The ruthless guy was blown up after kidnapping Ye Hei at the start.

The cultivator showed a hint of surprise upon hearing this, but quickly regained his composure.

Ye Xiu? Never heard of him. Perhaps you should ask the Great Emperor's Hall; maybe someone there knows. The cultivator offered this suggestion indifferently.

Ye Xiu felt a glimmer of hope, expressed his gratitude to the cultivator, and then stepped into the Emperor's Hall.

Inside the Heavenly Sect Hall, Ye Xiu faced two Daoist priests blocking his path. Both priests were experts from the Great Emperor's Palace, possessing profound cultivation and always highly vigilant about the background of any newcomer. Ye Xiu made no attempt to conceal his intentions, frankly stating his purpose.

"The Great Emperor resides in his palace, and all under heaven are under his protection. I wish to see him," Ye Xiu said directly. The two Daoist priests exchanged glances, one of them raising his hand to block Ye Xiu's path, his voice cold and warning, "There are extremely strong energy fluctuations within the palace; cultivators below the Quasi-Emperor level cannot withstand them. Are you sure you want to enter?"

Ye Xiu nodded firmly, "I am willing to bear all the consequences."

At this moment, inside the Great Emperor's Hall, mysterious and majestic, Ye Xiu stepped inside, enveloped by the towering architecture and mysterious aura. Numerous cultivators cast their gazes upon him, all eager to see who this newcomer was.

The Great Emperor himself appeared; he was the ruler of the hall, a being who reigned supreme over all. His gaze, like a constellation of stars, was focused on Ye Xiu, making it seem as if the entire Heavenly Sect was watching this newcomer.

"Who are you, daring to trespass into my palace?" The Emperor's voice was like a mountain range, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression. Ye Xiu bowed respectfully, "Your subordinate Ye Xiu has come to pay respects to the Emperor."

The Great Emperor frowned slightly. "I have never heard of your identity." Many cultivators discussed amongst themselves, filled with curiosity about Ye Xiu's identity. One of the Quasi-Emperors frowned and said, "Could you be the successor of some powerful figure, daring to intrude so rashly?"

Another person thought it was unlikely, suggesting it might be an assassin sent by a hostile force to harm the emperor.

Ye Xiu smiled and explained, "I am neither a disciple of a powerful figure nor an assassin. I am simply searching for my wife, whose name is Ruthless."

A sudden silence fell over the hall, and everyone looked at Ye Xiu in surprise. The Emperor frowned; the name seemed somewhat familiar, but he didn't reveal much emotion.

Ruthless? The Emperor snorted coldly. I've heard that name before, but this person is not my subject and has nothing to do with me.

Ye Xiu knew that the Great Emperor wasn't unaware of the ruthless woman, but rather unwilling to reveal too much information. Therefore, he spoke directly, "I dare not disturb your peace and quiet, but I hope to obtain some clues that might help me find her."

The Emperor remained silent for a moment, then said, "That depends on your strength and whether you can withstand the power within the palace."

All eyes were on Ye Xiu. Although he was the fifth generation Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan, it was unknown whether he could withstand the pressure in the Emperor's Hall.

The Emperor's expression shifted between light and shadow. Suddenly, he raised his hand, and a dazzling light descended upon Ye Xiu.

"Let me see what you're really capable of." The Emperor's eyes were sharp as knives as he tested Ye Xiu.

Chapter 271 The Fifth Generation Demon Emperor

Inside the Heavenly Sect Hall, the Great Emperor Yangmei displayed his powerful imperial might to Ye Xiu, attempting to counterbalance the outsider's strength. However, Ye Xiu emanated a purple and golden aura, revealing the legendary Great Perfection Sacred Body, shocking everyone.

The Great Immortal Yangmei acknowledged his identity, calling him the Fifth Generation Demon Emperor, and everyone was extremely envious of his cultivation and appearance.

The Fifth Demon Emperor has actually graced my palace with his presence; this is truly rare. The voice of the Great Immortal Yangmei was as gentle as a light breeze and drizzle, yet it contained an undeniable aura of power.

Ye Xiu smiled and replied, "If Your Majesty has any needs, I will certainly do my utmost to serve you."

Yangmei the Immortal looked at Ye Xiu, a thoughtful expression in his eyes. He glanced at the many cultivators, as if pondering something.

Suddenly, a powerful imperial aura emanated from Yangmei Immortal, permeating the entire hall. This imperial aura was different from the previous gentle one; it contained a profound and oppressive power.

"Fifth Demon Emperor, although you are powerful, you must accept my test if you wish to enter my palace." Yang Mei the Immortal's voice carried a hint of threat.

Ye Xiu smiled slightly and said, "Please, Ancestor, take action. I am willing to accept the test."

At the gesture of the Great Immortal Yangmei, a golden light suddenly filled the hall, like an invisible hand that firmly restrained Ye Xiu.

"This is the power of my Emperor's Might, can you withstand it?" Yang Mei Daxian sneered, anticipating Ye Xiu's reaction. However, the next moment, everyone witnessed a shocking scene. A faint purple-gold light emanated from Ye Xiu's body, the aura of the Great Perfection Sacred Body.

Yang Mei, the Great Immortal, felt a surge of unease. The Great Accomplishment Sacred Body was an extremely rare existence in mythology, almost unmatched.

Bathed in the purple-gold light, Ye Xiu seemed to effortlessly break free from the Emperor's Might binding Yang Mei Da Xian, standing freely in place.

"Such powerful imperial might, but unfortunately it's not enough to deal with me." Ye Xiu said calmly.

Immortal Yang Mei's expression changed slightly. "You actually possess a Great Completion Sacred Body? How could such a being exist in the mortal realm?" Everyone was astonished. A Great Completion Sacred Body—a being said to be comparable to the Heavenly Emperor—had actually appeared before them. Ye Xiu's identity became even more mysterious.

After pondering for a moment, Yangmei Daxian nodded. "Since that's the case, I already know your identity, so you don't need to be tested by me anymore."

He suddenly looked at the portrait of the ruthless woman in Ye Xiu's hand. "Is this your wife?"

Ye Xiu nodded, "Exactly. I would like to ask the Ancestor, have you ever heard of her whereabouts?"

As Yangmei Daxian looked at the portrait, a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes. He had indeed seen this face before, but he couldn't be sure of her whereabouts.

Ye Xiu frowned; this was not the answer he had expected. Yang Mei Da Xian suddenly changed the subject, "You just mentioned the Abyss. Tell me everything you know."

Ye Xiu took a deep breath and began to reveal information about the Abyss to Yang Mei Da Xian, including the Abyss's ambitions and its potential threat to the mortal world.

The Abyss covets the Immortal Realm; their ambitions are immeasurable. If we don't take action, the entire mortal realm will be in imminent danger. Ye Xiu's tone was solemn, his eyes flashing with determination.

Upon hearing this, the White-Browed Ancestor frowned slightly, clearly having given the news much thought.

Ye Xiu gave Yang Mei a deep look. "Ancestor, I am just an outsider, but I hope you can take the threat of the Abyss seriously."

After speaking, Ye Xiu turned and left the Heavenly Sect Hall. He understood that his responsibility now went beyond simply finding the ruthless man; it was also about saving the entire mortal realm. Meanwhile, Immortal Yangmei and the many cultivators were lost in deep thought about the Abyss.

Inside the Heavenly Sect Hall, Ye Xiu displayed his powerful Sacred Body, leaving the Heavenly Sect Emperor and everyone else in awe. Although Yang Mei the Immortal couldn't provide definitive information about the Ruthless Man, his respect for Ye Xiu was palpable.

Fifth Generation Demon Emperor, your cultivation is truly astonishing. The existence of such a perfected Holy Body is indeed a rare sight. Yang Mei the Great Immortal said sincerely.

Ye Xiu smiled and nodded. "You flatter me, Ancestor. I am just an outsider, but I do have something I would like to ask you."

Master Yangmei looked solemn and said, "Please speak, and I will do my best to help you."

"My wife, that ruthless woman, have you ever seen her?" Ye Xiu asked directly.

Master Yangmei pondered for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "I'm sorry, although I did see a woman with a similar appearance in ancient times, I cannot confirm whether she is the ruthless person you mentioned. My understanding of her is not profound."

Ye Xiu felt somewhat heavy-hearted. "Thank you, Ancestor," he said, bowing slightly to Yang Mei Daxian before turning and leaving the Heavenly Sect Hall.

Back at the inn, Ye Xiu waited quietly for news from Ye Qingxian and Yun Yun. When they returned, both women had grave expressions.
