The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 150: Direct Assault

The Kanzaki Clan on Shikoku Island in Japan is a renowned martial arts family locally.

Their status is akin to that of the Northwest Lei Family and the Kang Family in Huaxia.

Today, the Kanzaki Clan was unusually lively.

Members of the family were all at the entrance, anxiously waiting.

Leading them was the current patriarch of the Kanzaki Clan, Kanzaki Issaki, a powerful individual at the Early-Stage Martial King Realm, but the strongest in this region, bar none.

"When you meet the three disciples of the Celestial Pride Monarch later, you must be cautious and especially not offend them! It’s said that the three disciples of the Celestial Pride Monarch are already at the Late-Stage Martial King level!"

Kanzaki Issaki cautioned solemnly.

"What? Late-Stage Martial King?"

"Hiss!"

The sound of gasping filled the air, and every member of the Kanzaki Clan showed a look of terror.

Among them was a young man, his fists clenched tightly, eyes filled with unwillingness.

He was Kanzaki Horo, hailed as the Kanzaki Clan’s top genius, now already at the Half-Step Martial King Realm.

But compared to Xuan Long and the others, he was no different from an ant.

"Brother, there’s no need to be discouraged! They are in Wangyue Pavilion in Huaxia, and no matter the resources or various aspects, they are much better off than us! You’ve already done well!"

Beside him, a delicate young girl cheered him on, clenching her pink fists.

Her name was Kanzaki Mirei, the apple of the Kanzaki Clan’s eye.

"Yes, brother, don’t be discouraged!"

Other young ladies of the clan also cheered for Kanzaki Horo.

Soon, three figures appeared in the eyes of the Kanzaki Clan members.

"Ah? Mr. Xuan Long, the three of you have arrived!"

Kanzaki Issaki was the first to greet them.

"Greetings, Lord Kanzaki Issaki, we come at the behest of our master..."

As soon as Xuan Long began to speak, Kanzaki Issaki smiled and said, "We understand! The Celestial Pride Monarch has already explained everything!"

The reason why Wangyue Pavilion sent the Master of the East Tower, Tian Aozi, to handle this matter was simple.

Because Tian Aozi’s mother is a member of the Kanzaki Clan.

And the Kanzaki Clan is located on Shikoku Island, very close to the Orochi Divine Association.

Therefore, Tian Aozi’s three disciples were directly arranged to come to the Kanzaki Clan.

"Wow! Are these geniuses from the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm? Late-Stage Martial King cultivation!"

"They seem to be enveloped in a shroud of mist, mysterious and elusive!"

"It’s more than that, the moment they appeared, it was as if they were three fiercely powerful beasts, constantly emitting a dangerous aura!"

...

Upon seeing Xuan Long and the others, the Kanzaki Clan was utterly shocked.

"Mr. Xuan Long is excellent! Not only is his cultivation at the Late-Stage Martial King Realm, but he looks so handsome as well!"

"Mr. Cang Lei is not bad either!"

The females of the Kanzaki Clan gazed at the two with hearts in their eyes, staring at them intently.

Kanzaki Issaki brought his granddaughter to present her to Xuan Long and the others.

Kanzaki Mirei showed a shy expression, not daring to look at Xuan Long.

Seeing this, Kanzaki Issaki clenched his fists even tighter.

But he was powerless!

The three before him were strong individuals beyond his reach!

Within the Kanzaki Clan.

"I wonder what Mr. Xuan Long’s thoughts are on this matter?"

Kanzaki Issaki asked curiously; he knew a little about it.

Xuan Long’s eyes flashed with a cold glint: "Go directly to their door and demand the item back!"

"What? Go directly to their door? The Orochi Divine Association is not ordinary, the Nine Great Divine Ninjas are all high-level Martial Kings. Moreover, the Divine King of the Orochi Divine Association has unfathomable cultivation; if he appears, you could be in danger!"

Kanzaki Issaki’s face drastically changed as he spoke instinctively.

Yet Xuan Long showed a confident smile: "No worries! We do not fear the Orochi Divine Association!"

What is confidence?

This is it!

What is boldness?

This is it!

At that moment, the members of the Kanzaki Clan were in awe of Xuan Long’s confidence.

And it was not blind arrogance; his calm demeanor indicated assuredness.

At that moment, the females of the Kanzaki Clan looked at Xuan Long with adoring eyes.

Just then, a middle-aged man ran into the hall, panting.

"Brother, Mr. Xuan Long..."

He greeted everyone first, then said, "I’ve found out that the Divine King of the Orochi Divine Association left Japan long ago and is currently not present."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Long and the others’ eyes suddenly brightened.

With the Unparalleled Spiritual Artifact in hand, they feared not the Orochi Divine King.

More so when he was absent...

"Mr. Kanzaki Issaki, time is of the essence; we should set off at once!"

Xuan Long urged.

"Good!"

Kanzaki Issaki agreed.

Soon, a large group set off for the Orochi Divine Association.

Among them were Kanzaki Horo, Kanzaki Mirei, and others.

"Be cautious later; this battle will feature unprecedented martial arts experts. Observing their fights will greatly benefit your future cultivation!"

Kanzaki Issaki instructed.

"Father (Lord of the House), we understand!"

The younger generation of the Kanzaki Clan nodded.

Shikoku Island is mountainous, and the Orochi Divine Association’s lair is deep in the mountains.

At last, Xuan Long’s group arrived near the Orochi Divine Association before sunset.

Here, three sides are surrounded by mountains, and one side by the sea.

It’s a bamboo forest, filled with a desolate aura.

Not far away, several buildings came into view, unmistakably the lair of the Orochi Divine Association.

"The Orochi Divine Association once held a martial artist conference here, which is why we could easily find it!"

Kanzaki Issaki explained.

"Good! Today let me prove Japanese martial arts!"

Xuan Long’s eyes shot out two cold beams, loudly declaring.

"Wow!"

The younger generation of the Kanzaki Clan gazed at Xuan Long with admiration, their thoughts turbulent and excited.

Their peers had already reached the point of challenging the Orochi Divine Association!

A true genius at the time, akin to a divine dragon in the heavens, how could they not envy and admire?

"The Orochi Divine Association welcomes the three great masters from Wangyue Pavilion in the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm!"

At that moment, a thunderous voice echoed throughout the bamboo forest.

"What? Something seems off!"

Kanzaki Issaki exclaimed.

Almost everyone became cautious, including Xuan Long and the others.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Ghostly figures moved through the bamboo forest, casting an eerie wind.

Once everything settled, dozens or even hundreds of martial artists suddenly surrounded them.

"Not good, it’s an ambush!"

Xuan Long realized, his expression growing dark, eyes becoming sharp as needles.

Cang Lei and Qing Ling’s clothing billowed without wind, their True Qi surging.

"Boom!"

With a rumble shaking the earth, nine figures began to appear nearby.

The nine differed in height, attire, and facial markings.

The only similarity was their eyes, filled with a hint of bloodlust under their mocking gaze.

Their bodies emitted frightful killing intent...

"Were you waiting for us?"

Xuan Long cautiously asked.

"Of course! We’ve been expecting you for a long time!"

The Nine Great Divine Ninjas sneered.
