Background / History
The Eternal Ye Family has flourished across countless eras without a recorded decline. Its ancestor, the Eternal Great Emperor, lived in an age so distant that he describes it as impossible to trace. His connection to the family becomes public when his physical-body imprint encounters Ye Tian 1 79.
During the Mythic Era, the family participated in the war that sealed the World-Annihilating King of the Myriad Heavens North Sea. One elder proposed destroying the North Sea and incorporating it into Ye territory, but other pinnacle powers opposed the plan 576 577.
The family also sealed the Outer Chaos’s former supreme Great Evil God. Its longstanding resistance to the Outer Chaos is presented as a principal reason the Myriad Heavens and Worlds have not been assimilated into darkness 611.
Before Ye Tian’s birth, the family seldom intervened in wider affairs. Although its supremacy remained acknowledged, some powers’ fear of it diminished during this period of relative inactivity 370.
Organization
Leadership and Branches
- Family head and matriarch: Ye Junlin and Yue Liuli occupy the highest present-day leadership positions 10 33.
- Main and side branches: The family has one main branch and several side branches, with branch elders and their own influential officeholders 33 34.
- Elder council: Its top ten elders form an exceptionally powerful senior echelon. The Great Elder directs deliberations when the family head and matriarch are unavailable 450 576 577.
- Department leadership: Each hall, palace, or pavilion has a master and subordinate elders. A departmental master can wield more practical authority than some main-branch elders 33.
Younger Generation
| Group | Position and Known Members |
|---|---|
| Five Seed-Level Prodigies | Lead the younger generation. Ye Dan and Ye Sword God are confirmed members 46 52. |
| Ten Great Sequences | Rank below the Seed-Level Prodigies; each is described as an exceptional same-realm combatant 52. |
| Fourth Sequence | Ye Jingang, bearer of the vajra divine physique 57. |

| Other nurtured disciples | Ye Linglong receives preferential treatment but is explicitly said not to be a Seed-Level Prodigy 10 16. |
| Dormant talents | The family has numerous younger-generation prodigies who have not yet awakened 46. |
- Formal respect: Ordinary disciples bow to elders. Specially nurtured disciples such as Ye Dan, Ye Sword God, and Ye Linglong need only salute elders with cupped hands; they still bow to the family head, matriarch, and ancestors 10.

Family Policy
The family’s elders initially consider Ye Tian’s happiness more important than his aptitude. They insist they can protect him for life and change his constitution if necessary. As his strength grows, they increasingly allow him to prove himself while preserving his privacy, including declining to investigate the origins of his mysterious God Sovereign followers 1 364 387.
Its protection does not exempt members from punishment. Ye Junlin orders Ye Jiancai’s son executed for abducting and murdering another sect’s holy maiden and committing crimes under the family’s name. Ye Jiancai’s resulting resentment becomes the motive for his betrayal 33.
- Peer contests: The family states that it will not interfere in ordinary contests between younger-generation cultivators 576.
- Senior persecution: Attacks by older experts against its juniors can provoke the destruction of the attackers’ entire Dao Lineage 576.
- Protection beyond the young master: The elders explicitly extend this principle to ordinary disciples who suffer deliberate persecution 577.
- Independent growth: The campaign against Green Mountain Sacred Land is deliberately left to Ye Tian as a trial, although the family could destroy it itself 360.

Story Role / Major Arcs
One-Month Banquet and Betrayal
The family’s celebration of Ye Tian attracts major powers without formal invitations. Visitors offer divine weapons, scriptures, rare materials, and even lifelong service from princesses and holy maidens. The spectacle makes the family’s supremacy widely understood beyond the circles of Immortal Forces 25 26 27.
The Fire Demon, Bone Demon, and Infernal Lion Races attack with help from Ye Jiancai, who traps the guests and disables the protective array for the Blood Sea remnants. Yue Liuli and the elders crush the invasion. The survivors’ escape array instead sends them to the Heavenly Prison, while Ye Junlin destroys their home lineages. Ye Tian learns that his parents had anticipated and controlled the conspiracy 32 33 34 35 36.
Flesh Awakening and Ancestral Revelation
Rival powers attempt to humiliate the family by challenging reports of Ye Tian’s strength. The family opens his age-three flesh-awakening ceremony to visitors rather than defend its claims. Ye Tian reaches the top of the Eternal Physical Body Ranking, and the Eternal Great Emperor’s imprint reveals that the legendary First of Eternity is a Ye ancestor 61 79 88.
Expansion and the Golden Age
Ye Tian’s campaigns bring the Great Sun Sacred Land under family control and destroy the dark-infiltrated Green Mountain Sacred Land. The elders celebrate his victories while debating how aggressively to confront the Life Forbidden Zones and Outer Chaos without taking opportunities away from the younger generation 357 360 366.
The family then hosts a tournament open to young heroes across the heavens. Every participant is promised a reward, the top five may choose from prepared items, and the champion’s prize is a God Sovereign Weapon 372 374 375.
North Sea Retaliation
When the World-Annihilating King plots against Ye Tian, the Eternal Great Emperor intervenes and confronts the Myriad Demons Great Emperor over the actions of his projection. The family council prepares its own response, rejecting persecution of juniors even while Ye Junlin and Yue Liuli are occupied with seclusion and the Outer Chaos 573 574 576 577.
Later, disturbances from the North Sea draw the attention of Ye Zhanyao, Ye Suixing, and Ye Nulei within the Ancestral Ground 984.
