The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 121: Xu Yiren’s Past

"So Miss, you’d better hurry back to Jin City, leave this place of trouble!"

Wang Yanma urged.

"Ah? Is it that serious?"

Xu Yiren’s face was panic-stricken.

She finally understood why her parents didn’t want her to return, it was because of Du Junfeng.

"More than serious, you should leave immediately! If Du Junfeng finds out, it’ll be over. You go to Jin City first, we’ll have arrangements for the follow-up!"

Wang Yanma’s face was full of urgency, eager to push Xu Yiren away.

"We..."

Xu Yiren was just about to ask Ye Qingtian’s opinion, when Ye Qingtian’s voice immediately rang out, "Leave? Why leave?"

"Not leaving? Not leaving means you’re courting death!" Wang Yanma shouted angrily, then turned to Xu Yiren to ask, "Miss, who is this?"

"He’s my classmate."

Xu Yiren answered.

Wang Yanma looked at Ye Qingtian, "Young man, I advise you, if you don’t want to die, leave this place quickly, right away!"

Ye Qingtian ignored him completely, climbed directly into the car.

Xu Yiren hesitated a bit but still followed.

"Hey! Let’s go back to the Xu Family!"

Wang Yanma clapped his hands and said.

On the way, Xu Yiren explained, "Du Junfeng was originally a small thug, relying on his skills and ruthless style to gain significant influence. Later he pursued me but failed, attempted to kidnap me, and was eventually sent to prison..."

"Oh, I’m not interested."

Ye Qingtian’s face was indifferent, as if he hadn’t heard a word.

"Hmph, you’re just a student who doesn’t understand these things, it’s natural to have no interest. Let me put it this way, how terrifying is Du Junfeng now? Even an infantry battalion of the army can’t handle him! Heavy weapons like cannons might even be useless!"

Wang Yanma explained dissatisfiedly.

Ye Qingtian kept staring out the window, completely ignoring Wang Yanma and Xu Yiren.

Honestly, Xu Yiren was also very worried now.

According to Wang Yanma, Du Junfeng is truly terrifying.

Ye Qingtian is strong, but likely not on the same level as these people.

About an hour later, they arrived at the Xu Family in Xaining Province.

The Xu Family’s grand construction was comparable to the Northwest Super Clan like the Lei Family, far above the Four Great Families of Jin City.

"Ah? Yiren, why did you suddenly come back?"

Xu Family members were shocked to see Xu Yiren return.

"Ah... I have something..."

"Who is this?"

Everyone’s gaze fell on Ye Qingtian.

"Oh, this is my classmate Ye Qingtian. We’re back for a school-arranged task!"

Xu Yiren calmly explained.

But the Xu Family’s suspicious eyes were fixed on Ye Qingtian and Xu Yiren.

Xu Yiren was excellent in all aspects, but now there were too many flaws.

Previously, Xu Yiren was as cold as an ever-lasting iceberg, pursued by numerous rich young men, but she never paid attention to anyone.

Yet today, she unexpectedly brought a male classmate home.

"Hey! Yiren, why come back at this critical moment? Didn’t we say not to let you return?"

Xu Yiren’s mother Jia Yejun said worriedly.

"Hey... I..."

Her father Xu Hanqian hesitated to speak, as if feeling exasperated at her actions.

Others spoke up, "Yiren, it’s one thing for you to come back. How could you bring a male classmate too? If Du Junfeng sees this, it’ll definitely infuriate him. Not only will the Xu Family suffer, but your classmate might lose his life because of it."

"Yeah! You’re pushing yourself into the fire pit!"

"The key is that Du Junfeng plans to act against the Xu Family in the next couple of days, it’s really unfortunate timing."

...

Suddenly an elderly voice sounded, "You need not panic, I’ve already invited three Martial Kings to guard. No matter how strong Du Junfeng may be, he wouldn’t dare to do anything to my Xu Family."

The speaker was the Xu Family Patriarch Xu Guo’an, who was quite calm.

Xu Guo’an looked at Xu Yiren and said, "Yiren, hurry and finish what you have to do tonight, so you can leave early tomorrow morning."

"Got it, thank you grandpa!"

Xu Yiren was filled with joy, and naturally felt less worried.

Then, the Xu Family arranged for Xu Yiren and Ye Qingtian to go rest.

"Father, who are the three Martial Kings you mentioned? Why are you so calm?"

Xu Hanqian asked curiously.

Xu Guo’an said solemnly, "The number one expert of the Lei Family, Lei Dong, plus two Martial Kings from the Qilian Mountain Martial Arts Sects."

"It’s Lei Dong! If it weren’t for Ye Xiaoyao emerging at the Martial Arts Tournament, he would’ve been the number one Martial Artist in the Northwest. With him here, my Xu Family will be safe!"

Xu Hanqian’s face brightened up instantly, full of a radiant smile.

"Yes! I’m安心 with Brother Lei Dong around!"

Xu Guo’an nodded.

...

Meanwhile,

"Alright, let’s go to my second uncle’s room now!"

Xu Yiren led Ye Qingtian as they prepared to leave.

"Sis, Du Junfeng already knows you’re here."

A voice sounded from behind.

A young boy of around fifteen or sixteen, with a stern face, glared at Ye Qingtian, filled with a warning, "And you don’t deserve my sister!"

"Ah? Du Junfeng knows I’m here?"

Xu Yiren’s face changed dramatically upon hearing this.

She had been kidnapped before, although Du Junfeng failed to accomplish anything before being caught, he’s been her shadow.

Now that Du Junfeng returns as a king, her fear is doubled, naturally deepening.

Xu Yufei said calmly, "Yes, now Xiaxi is almost under Du Junfeng’s control, his spies are everywhere. Your return was bound to be quickly discovered by him. He might already be on his way here."

"Ah? What do we do now? Ye Qingtian, let’s not bother with this, let’s leave immediately."

Xu Yiren was flustered.

Ye Qingtian paid no attention: "Where is your second uncle’s room?"

"Are you fearless or simply unaware of the gravity of the situation?"

Xu Yufei crossed his arms and laughed coldly.

To him, Ye Qingtian was just a handsome ordinary person, unaware of the horrors of Martial Artists.

"Let’s go!"

However, Ye Qingtian ignored him like air, directly pulling Xu Yiren away.

"You..."

Xu Yufei was furious but helpless.

"Master Yufei, the master asked me to call you over, to introduce you to some senior members!"

A servant rushed to say.

"Alright, let’s go!"

Xu Yufei glared fiercely at Ye Qingtian’s back, then turned and left.

In the Xu Family’s reception hall, almost everyone stood.

Only four people were seated, besides Xu Guo’an, there were three elders.

"Come, Yufei, let me introduce you! This is the Lei Family’s Martial King Lei Dong..."

Xu Guo’an introduced.

"Hello, Grandpa Lei Dong..."

Xu Yufei greeted politely, his heart pounding.

The people before him were the top Martial Kings in the Northwest; they were his idols.
