The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 218: Tianjing’s Number One Beauty, Shen Huamo

"Yeah, you’ve been married off. The engagement is set, but can you guess who your fiancé is?"

Chou Lifu teased deliberately.

"Who is it? Hurry up and tell us!"

Shen Junqing and the others appeared somewhat anxious, staring intently at Chou Lifu.

"The Ye Family and the Shen Family have agreed on a marriage alliance, to marry Junqing to Ye Qingtian from the Ye Family!"

Chou Lifu announced.

The crowd paused, perplexed, asking, "Who is Ye Qingtian? Why haven’t I heard of him?"

"Ye Qingtian is the son of Ye Kuangfeng. He was expelled from the Ye Family at the age of four. This is a secret in Tianjing, considered taboo. So it’s normal for some of you not to know!"

Qi Fengyu explained.

"Ah? It’s him? I’ve heard a bit about this young master of the Ye Family!"

The crowd finally relaxed, as some had indeed heard of him.

Chou Lifu continued, looking at his phone, "It’s said that Ye Qingtian wandered outside for over ten years and accomplished nothing. Now he’s back seeking refuge with the Ye Family."

"Ah, such luck. Just because his surname is Ye. He’s become the Ye Family’s eldest young master upon returning, and now he’s causing trouble for Junqing!"

Gao Shang sighed.

Qi Fengyu seemed worried, "Aren’t they pushing Junqing into the fire pit? We can’t agree to this! Absolutely not!"

"But what’s the alternative if we don’t agree? The Shen Family has already consented. Besides, who would dare provoke Ye Kuangfeng’s son?"

Someone stated the fact.

"Indeed! A marriage alliance with Ye Kuangfeng’s son is actually a climb up for Junqing and the Shen Family! There’s no way to refuse!"

"However, everyone is saying that Ye Qingtian is just a worthless, spoiled brat. If Shen Junqing ends up with him, she’s doomed!"

"Any other Ye Family young master would have been fine, why does it have to be Ye Qingtian?"

Shen Junqing’s face quickly darkened, remaining silent.

Qi Yuexi couldn’t help but advise, "Junqing, you won’t get any help from the Shen Family. The arm can’t twist the thigh. Perhaps you could talk to Sister Huamo and see if she has any solutions?"

Shen Junqing shook her head, "Telling my sister won’t help. What could she do?"

"Maybe your sister can’t help, but your future brother-in-law might..."

Qi Fengyu’s voice sounded.

Shen Junqing’s eyes lit up, "Do you mean Brother Ren Shaoqing?"

"Exactly. As far as I know, the five of them are returning from Wangyue Pavilion soon. They will be transformed, and it’s safe to say they will decide Tianjing’s future power dynamics. Your future brother-in-law’s influence will be substantial. If he steps in, perhaps this issue can be resolved. And adding Long Kuangqiong to the mix, do you think he can tolerate it?"

Qi Fengyu analyzed.

The Shen sisters were renowned for their unparalleled beauty, stunning Tianjing.

Of course, many young masters pursued the sisters, with Long Kuangqiong, ranked third on Tianjing’s Young Masters’ List, always chasing after Shen Junqing.

"Yes, that way, there will be considerable pressure on the Ye Family too. Even if the marriage proceeds, I bet Junqing would likely end up with Young Master Ye Shentian."

This was the best outcome everyone could envision.

At this moment, an image of Ye Xiaoyao defeating the Five Dragons of Huaxia flashed in Shen Junqing’s mind.

However, having the engagement switched from Ye Qingtian to Ye Shentian was also a good result.

"Okay, I’ll go talk to my sister!"

Shen Junqing then left.

In the suburbs of Tianjing, at the Shen Family villa.

"Sister, do you already know about it?"

Shen Junqing was surprised to see the woman by the window.

A woman stood by the window, with a slender figure and a thin waist; under the black gauze dress, her fair skin was faintly visible. Her figure was perfect, comparable to a model.

However, it was the woman’s long waterfall-like hair, casually draped over her shoulders, that captivated the most. It was smooth and shiny black.

Nowadays, most people’s long black hair is replaced by dyes and perms.

But this woman hadn’t; her hair hadn’t been touched by dye or other treatments, absolutely natural.

The woman slowly turned around, her autumn-water-like eyes clear and bright, her radiant eyes sparkling as they moved. Her slightly upturned cherry lips shone with a tempting gloss, her nose was charmingly delicate. Her features were exquisite and flawless. Her bare face without makeup was luminous and beautiful, her skin like fine cheese, smooth and velvety.

In her bones, she carried an innocent sensuality with a hint of a cool aura about her...

The woman’s beauty was still, her eyes like a millennium-old pond, without a ripple.

So calm it was hard to imagine what she was thinking!

Everything blended together to create an aura that drew people in but made them hesitate to approach.

Shen Huamo.

The first beauty of Tianjing.

Such an exceptional presence.

Despite having beauty on par with Hua Qingfei and the like, her unique aura surpassed everyone else.

Hence, she was known as the first beauty of Tianjing.

"I can see you don’t want to, and there’s someone in your heart."

Shen Huamo crossed her arms, gazing quietly at her sister.

"Yes!"

Under Shen Huamo’s gaze, Shen Junqing felt completely exposed.

"Well, let me handle this! If I’m not mistaken, Ren Shaoqing and the others will return in six days. At that time, we can invite Ye Qingtian over, so he can give up one side, and on the other hand, Ren and the Long family can exert pressure, plus the Hua Family would probably intervene. Your engagement will naturally be dissolved!"

Shen Huamo’s eyes were deep, as if everything was under her control.

"Okay, Sister, I understand. I’ll do as you say!"

Shen Junqing nodded, no longer as dejected.

But she thought of something, couldn’t help but ask, "But what about you, Sister? You still don’t like Ren Shaoqing, do you? Everyone believes Ren Shaoqing is the first on Tianjing’s Young Masters’ List, once first on the Hidden Dragon List. Huaxia’s extraordinary genius. But I always feel he doesn’t match you, Sister. Or rather, he doesn’t meet your standards!"

Shen Huamo responded coldly, "Don’t bring this up again. I have my own judgment and plans."

"Understood, Sister."

...

Quickly, six days passed, and Ye Qingtian’s mourning period was over.

"Whew!"

Ye Qingtian let out a long breath.

No one bothered him during these seven days, which brought him comfort.

"The Ye Family, huh? It’s time to settle the score."

Sharp lights shone in Ye Qingtian’s eyes.

"Brother Qingtian, may I come in?"

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

"Come in!"

Then, a timid little girl with twin tails walked in, looking urgently and uneasily at Ye Qingtian.

"What is it?"

Ye Qingtian asked.

"Brother Qingtian, the Shen Family is hosting a banquet and inviting you to attend..."

Ye Ziwu said softly.

"Oh? The Shen Family is hosting a banquet and inviting me?"

Ye Qingtian was a bit surprised.

"Yes, Brother Qingtian."

Ye Ziwu nodded.

"Alright, take me there."

Ye Qingtian decided to see what was happening.
