Chapter 235: Rubbed into the Ground
This silhouette was all too familiar to him, leaving a profound impression on him from that battle.
"An Wenlong pays homage to Young Master Ye Xiaoyao, at the peak of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao!"
An Wenlong suddenly knelt to the ground, worshipping Ye Qingtian.
His disciples followed suit, kneeling down as well.
This scene caught everyone off guard!
An Wenlong, a powerful Late-Stage Martial King, was kneeling before Ye Qingtian.
What was happening here?
Everyone present was baffled, unable to make heads or tails of the situation.
"Hmm!"
Ye Qingtian coldly snorted.
An Wenlong stood up: "You people are simply asking for death! Young Master Ye, shall I help you kill them all?"
An Wenlong’s Late-Stage Martial King aura dominated the scene, causing fear and trepidation among everyone present.
The people from the three major corporations were utterly confused as to why An Wenlong would do this.
And even offer to help Ye Qingtian kill them.
"No need, it’s better not to spill blood here."
Shen Huamo directly conveyed Ye Qingtian’s intention.
"Fine, consider yourselves lucky today. Dare to offend Young Master Ye, you truly have a death wish!"
An Wenlong snorted coldly.
With the pinnacle of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao in front of them, what worth was Young Master Li from Han Country?
"Who... who is he?"
Someone from the three major corporations asked, trembling.
An Wenlong glanced at the crowd: "Hmph, listen carefully. The Young Master Ye before me is none other than Ye Xiaoyao, who just ascended to the peak of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao! He single-handedly overpowered the Five Dragons of Huaxia at Broken Heaven Waterfall and ranks first on the Dragon List!"
"Ye... Ye... Ye Xiaoyao?"
The executives of the three major corporations trembled, their eyes almost popping out at this name.
No one expected Ye Xiaoyao, who had just risen to the peak of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao, to appear in Tianqi City, and even have connections to the Du Family.
"Qingtian is Ye Xiaoyao?"
Du Lijun, Du Wenyuan, and others had heard of Ye Xiaoyao’s name.
"I understand now, the woman beside him is Tianjing’s most beautiful woman, Shen Huamo. It’s indeed Ye Xiaoyao!"
A young master from the three major corporations recognized Shen Huamo and couldn’t help but exclaim.
"It really is the peak of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao! Luckily, we’re with the Du Family, otherwise we’d all be dead!"
Everyone from the three major corporations felt fortunate.
With Ye Xiaoyao’s appearance, even the four major noble families of Huaxia trembled, let alone these ants.
Then, Shen Huamo produced several contracts.
"As long as you sign, you’ll be safe! Otherwise, I think Elder An will pay you a visit!"
Shen Huamo said with a sneer.
"Hmm!"
An Wenlong coldly snorted.
Eventually, the three major corporations signed the agreement Shen Huamo had prepared in advance, and from then on, all the industries in Tianqi belonged to the Du Family.
The Du Family became the king of Tianqi.
Even after a long time, the Du Family was still immersed in the shock of what had just happened.
The Du Family, initially teetering on the brink of being expelled, suddenly transformed into the dominant force of Tianqi, completely stepping over the other three major corporations.
"Qingtian, how did you do it?"
Du Wenyuan felt all of this was unbelievable, almost dreamlike.
"Because I am Ye Xiaoyao!"
Ye Qingtian replied with a smile.
"That’s fantastic! Truly fantastic! If Xue Ning could see you like this from below, she would surely be gratified!"
Du Lijun and others became so excited that they were at a loss for words.
Especially after hearing Shen Huamo talk about Ye Qingtian causing a commotion among the major noble families in Tianjing, Du Lijun and others were even more thrilled.
"Ah? Is the Ye Family already expelled from their ancestral residence?"
Du Wenyuan asked in astonishment.
Shen Huamo replied: "Yes, yes, currently only the master resides in the Ye Family’s ancestral residence! They’ve even changed all the servants inside!"
"Ah? That’s truly satisfying! Haha, weren’t the Ye Family always so high and mighty? Why are they all cowed now?"
Du Jinhao exclaimed joyfully upon hearing this.
Ye Qingtian looked at Du Lijun and others: "Grandfather, grandmother, I want you to return to Tianjing! The Du Family will not only become the masters of Tianqi, but also the masters of Tianjing! Become the top noble family of Huaxia!"
"Ah? Return to Tianjing? And become the top noble family?"
Du Wenyuan and Du Xueyan almost turned to stone on the spot, something they never dared to think about.
The first to react was Du Jinhao, who was overjoyed and excitedly said: "If that’s the case, won’t I become Tianjing’s top young master? The young masters in Tianjing will have to call me Young Master Du when they see me. Hahaha..."
"The Du Family can indeed become the top noble family, but you are not the top young master. Uncle, remember that he is not to be involved in any Du Family affairs from now on!"
Ye Qingtian specifically instructed.
"What?"
Du Jinhao’s dream of being the top young master shattered, almost making him vomit blood.
"Qingtian, I plan to send him to the military or something, to hone his character, which isn’t a bad idea."
Du Wenyuan said, revealing that he had the idea for some time.
Du Jinhao was terrified, not only was his previous life of luxury gone, but he was also going to a painful life in the military.
"No need to send him to the military; how can it be tough enough? Toss him to that An Wenlong, let him train him ruthlessly, and don’t let him come back until all his bad habits are gone!"
Ye Qingtian said.
Du Jinhao closed his eyes in despair, realizing he couldn’t escape this journey of suffering.
Just then, An Wenlong and his group arrived: "Young Master Ye, I have important matters to report!"
"Speak!"
"As everyone here knows, the three major corporations are backed by the Li Family of Han Country! I’ve heard the heir of the Li Family, Li Dongxu, is in Huaxia Tianjing now. It’s likely he’ll be coming to Tianqi!"
An Wenlong explained.
"What is Li Dongxu’s strength like?"
Shen Huamo couldn’t help but ask.
"It’s said that Li Dongxu is very mysterious but sweeps through the martial arts realm of Han Country, even claiming supremacy in the dark world. His martial arts cultivation and abilities aren’t precisely estimated, only that he’s invincible! No matter how strong the enemies he encounters, they all end up getting eliminated."
An Wenlong’s tone shifted: "But no matter how capable Li Dongxu is, facing the peak of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao still means kneeling! Young Master Ye’s strength makes killing him as easy as pie!"
"I understand. By the way, this guy will be your disciple from now on! Train him ruthlessly, and if it’s not tough enough, I’ll hold you accountable!"
Ye Qingtian handed Du Jinhao over to An Wenlong.
"No! Grandpa, Grandma, save me, Dad, save me, I don’t want to go!"
Being taken to the deep mountains and forests to cultivate felt worse than death.
"Understood, Young Master Ye, take him!"
Finally, An Wenlong’s disciple dragged away Du Jinhao.
The next day.
Tianjing, Li Dongxu received the news from Tianqi City.
"Great, very good. Whatever the peak of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao is, I want to challenge you!"
Li Dongxu sneered.
Li Dongxu found Hua Qingfei and Jin Chuhan: "Let’s go, follow me somewhere, watch how I defeat China’s strongest man and grind him into the ground."
"China’s strongest man?"
The two were both taken aback.
"Seems like some Ye Xiaoyao..."
Li Dongxu slowly remarked.
