The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 196: The Eastern Demon Emerges

Ye Qingtian nodded slightly, which counted as a response.

Ye Qingtian’s indifference surprised Qi Yuexi for a moment. She and Shen Junqing may not be the most beautiful in the world, but their unmatched beauty made them the focus wherever they went.

For example, upon arriving at Celestial Road Stronghold, the eyes of the stronghold’s residents, regardless of gender, stayed on them.

But Ye Qingtian was the only one who just continued to drink, not even sparing them a glance.

This made Qi Yuexi very puzzled. Especially seeing Ye Qingtian’s indifferent response, she couldn’t help but say, "It’s dangerous for you to come here alone! How about joining us? We can look out for each other!"

"Yes, if we’re together, we can offer help!"

Shen Junqing spoke, agreeing to Ye Qingtian joining.

The other three men seemed somewhat unwilling, but they couldn’t resist and had to agree.

Ye Qingtian lazily lifted his eyelids and glanced at them, saying, "Forget it, I don’t like lugging around a few useless burdens!"

Though these five included martial artists, none of them were at the Martial King level, which in Ye Qingtian’s eyes meant they were the most useless of the useless.

"Boom!"

The words were shocking; Ye Qingtian’s statement left Shen Junqing and the others dumbfounded.

Especially Chou Lifu, who found the words eerily familiar, suddenly recalling he had just said something similar.

Only he called Ye Qingtian a burden, whereas Ye Qingtian called them useless.

"What do you mean by this? Did you dare call us useless?"

A murderous aura filled the scene, and even the air seemed to be drawn out.

Chou Lifu and the other three immediately objected, exuding a strong oppressive presence towards Ye Qingtian.

"Enough, enough! It’s not a big deal!"

Shen Junqing spoke up.

Only then did Chou Lifu and the others sit down, not paying more regard to Ye Qingtian.

...

In the deep mountains of the Northeast, at Shenlong Manor.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a wave of world-destroying energy emerged from within, fiercely and dominantly enveloping the entire forest.

The world was filled with murderous tension, dark clouds rolled, and Kuangfeng roared terrifyingly.

Countless within the forest trembled, as if confronted by an existential threat.

At this moment, it was as if the lord of the Dragon Realm had descended, the Divine Dragon sweeping across the skies, wrathful against myriad foes, commanding submission from all beings.

"Slash!"

The air above Shenlong Manor was suddenly torn; a vivid rainbow split the sky, like dividing mountains and oceans.

Atop the peak behind Shenlong Manor, an unparalleled figure descended, causing the entire mountain to seem to shake, with a storm of sand and rocks scattering, clouds of dust rolling everywhere.

The Eastern Demon of Five Dragons of Huaxia, Luo Chongxiao, has emerged from seclusion.

His brow’s Martial Seal radiated with unmatched brilliance, bright as stars, and a blood-red dragon shadow surfaced faintly accompanied by the sound of a dragon’s roar.

Super-grade High-tier Martial Seal!

Just a step short of the legendary Divine Martial Seal!

This was the terrifying background of the Five Dragons of Huaxia.

Evil Buddha always felt that he wasn’t far behind the Southern Monk, but upon return, he could still be defeated, unaware that the gap was already fated.

In the path of martial arts, they could travel further than Evil Buddha,

At the same level, the Five Dragons of Huaxia could absolutely crush Evil Buddha.

"Congratulations, Master, on breaking through in cultivation!"

Voices of congratulations echoed, as Eastern Demon’s servants stood lined up, their eyes full of reverence and admiration.

In the martial arts path, the Martial Emperor Realm is difficult to ascend, especially breaking through to higher levels is even more challenging.

Yet Eastern Demon Luo Chongxiao broke through in a short time, enough to illustrate his heaven-defying nature.

"What’s the current situation? Especially concerning Ye Xiaoyao."

Eastern Demon Luo Chongxiao asked, his voice like rumbling thunder, causing tremors.

"Master, during your seclusion, Ye Xiaoyao became increasingly audacious; first killing Wangyue Pavilion’s Law Enforcement Team’s four great experts, then even slaying the returned Evil Buddha at Jin City Peak!"

Someone answered.

"What? He dares to kill Wangyue Pavilion’s Law Enforcement Team members? Evil Buddha also fell at his hands?"

Even Eastern Demon Luo Chongxiao, his expression wild with change.

"Indeed, Evil Buddha returned, swearing revenge against the Northern Army and Southern Monk, first testing with Ye Xiaoyao, unexpectedly meeting his end!"

Eastern Demon’s servant said.

Eastern Demon Luo Chongxiao’s eyes revealed two flashes of puzzlement: "So it seems, this Ye Xiaoyao has the qualifications to battle me! My grandson dying at his hands was not in vain!"

"By the way, Master, according to the news from Central Heaven Ye Fengtian, Ye Xiaoyao’s cultivation is at the Martial Emperor Realm; not only an External Body Training Strong Person but also formed the Super-grade Initial-tier Martial Seal!"

Luo Chongxiao became increasingly shocked: "It’s said Ye Xiaoyao is only at the age of twenty, not only possessing Martial Emperor Cultivation but also forming the Super-grade Martial Seal. If afforded great resources, this young man’s future is limitless! Hiss!"

Even Luo Chongxiao couldn’t help but draw a sharp intake of breath.

But then immediately he switched tones and said: "But Ye Xiaoyao killed my dear grandson, cut off the Luo family’s prospects! This debt must be settled! Regardless of his stunning talent, I must kill him! Whoever blocks me, I will kill!"

"Issue the order, send a challenge letter, I want a battle with Ye Xiaoyao!"

Luo Chongxiao radiated an unmatched murderous intent, aimed directly at the heavens.

"Yes, Master!"

Eastern Demon’s subordinates bowed deeply, lowering their heads, but their faces were full of excitement and unusual delight.

Once hard-rocked the martial arts realm against innumerable experts, ranked first on the Huaxia Dragon List, Eastern Demon will fight again.

This battle is bound to be earth-shattering.

The news of Eastern Demon Luo Chongxiao emerging from seclusion shocked the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm, and his issuing a challenge to Ye Xiaoyao further stirred the martial arts world into chaos.

Despite the prior excitement in the martial arts realm, breaking the usual quietude.

But now it is Eastern Demon against Ye Xiaoyao, an unprecedented event.

A destined extraordinary battle.

"Oh heavens, Eastern Demon has indeed made a move!"

"Ye Xiaoyao cut off the Luo family’s lineage, it’d be strange if he didn’t make a move!"

"Legend has it that Eastern Demon drank True Dragon Blood, who knows how strong he is now? Is he as the legends say?"

"To merit Eastern Demon’s challenge, Ye Xiaoyao even if dying in battle is justified!"

...

The Huaxia Martial Arts Realm started boiling over, and not only that, the entire Asian Martial Arts Realm, the Dark World, and other major circles started buzzing.

Eastern Demon Luo Chongxiao not only presides over the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm, he is hugely famous in Asia, especially renowned in Japan and Han Country.

In the bamboo forests of Western Shu at Poison King Pavilion.

West Poison Tang Aofeng was drinking tea, having just learned of Eastern Demon’s battle news.

His face remained unchanged, seemingly indifferent.

"Father, how do you view this situation?"

The speaker was Tang Aofeng’s eldest son Tang Zhen, the current Deputy Sect Leader of Tang Sect, one of the pillars of the Western Shu Tang Family.

"Let Eastern Demon make his move! But I will watch from the side. Alas, I owe their father-son duo too much, letting them carry the label of bastards surviving in the remote Northwest. If the opportunity arises, I will take action myself!"

Tang Aofeng sighed deeply.

"Grandfather, Grandfather..."

At this moment, someone rushed in from outside, it was Tang Yanwan.

"Huh? Why has this girl come?"
