The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 257: The Mastermind Behind Long Wuya

"Puchi!"

"Puchi!"

The heads of two furious dragons exploded first, followed by their bodies being gradually torn apart.

He forcibly tore the two furious dragons apart, like an invincible War God from myth.

"Bang!"

Ye Qingtian took a step forward and appeared directly in front of Long Wuya, grabbing Long Wuya’s throat.

His other hand pressed on the Ice and Fire Seal, smiling at Long Wuya.

"Don’t bother trying! You can’t escape my grasp!"

Ye Qingtian snorted coldly, and the two of them vanished.

At that moment, everyone was shocked.

Ye Qingtian vanished with Long Wuya from their sight, evaporating into thin air, it was simply unbelievable.

Especially Number Two, who was even more astonished by this scene.

Because what Ye Qingtian did was very similar to the Qiankun Void he used.

"What kind of freak is he? Long Wuya’s palms carried two strands of Five Elements True Power, yet he was still beaten to a pulp by him!"

At Long Family Manor, everyone was dumbfounded.

The sound of sharp intakes of breath kept echoing, each person was wide-eyed with shock.

Everything before them overturned their understanding, or rather, they couldn’t accept this harsh reality.

Long Wuya was actually defeated!

From beginning to end, he was crushed by Ye Qingtian, without any resistance.

"It’s terrifying! Could he be trained by a major sect in the Martial Arts Realm?"

Ye Canghai deeply suspected.

"Yes! Feels like he’s from a major sect!"

Fang Lingfei echoed.

Ye Qingtian’s talent seemed almost on par with the geniuses from the Martial Arts Realm they had seen.

"Long Wuya was defeated? Number One said he was invincible at Long Family Manor!"

Number Two was incredulous as though all his thoughts were refreshed.

"Number One was right, Ye Xiaoyao likely can’t control him!"

Others echoed.

The Long Family and Xing Family fell into a deathly silence.

Even Long Wuya was defeated, which meant the extermination of both the Long Family and Xing Family.

When they looked again, even Shen Huamo was gone.

In fact, Ye Qingtian and the other two had disappeared.

"Bang!"

At this moment, Long Wuya’s Ice and Fire Seal exploded in the sky, scattering two strands of Five Elements True Power.

"Mine!"

Number Two shot up into the sky, transforming into a streak of light.

By the time everyone reacted, the two strands of Five Elements True Power were already taken by Number Two.

At this moment, Ye Qingtian and the other two appeared in a place that was transparent and blurry everywhere, as if they had arrived in another world.

Before them, Long Wuya was barely breathing, his forehead wrinkled, as if he’d aged decades in an instant.

"Long Wuya, you should have died!"

Ye Qingtian suddenly said.

"Master, what’s going on?"

Shen Huamo was dumbfounded, having no idea what was happening.

Ye Qingtian smiled: "What you’re seeing isn’t Long Wuya, to be precise, he’s the Array Spirit of the Divine Martial Nine Tripods Demon Destruction Array, surviving in the world in a Spirit Body form."

"This..."

Shen Huamo was even more confused, completely puzzled.

When Ye Qingtian saw Long Wuya appear, he understood what was going on.

That night, using the Netherworld Forbidden Technique to search for Long Wuya yielded no result.

The reason was Long Wuya had long been dead, he only existed in an Array Spirit state. The two energies Ye Qingtian discovered that night were actually Long Wuya.

Long Wuya had actually never been in seclusion; he simply couldn’t leave the Long Family.

"But Long Wuya, you indeed have something. Using those two energies, you almost regained new life. Earlier, you wanted to use the Array to refine me and take over my physical body to be reborn, right?"

Ye Qingtian sneered.

Long Wuya suddenly laughed madly a few times: "Indeed, it’s a legendary forbidden technique for rebirth. I thought I would be the first to succeed in a millennium. But I didn’t expect you to be so strong, actually knowing everything about me!"

Upon hearing Long Wuya’s admission, Shen Huamo was stunned.

Everything heard now was completely beyond her expectations!

"Hmph, to you it’s a forbidden technique; to me, it’s just a petty trick!"

Ye Qingtian snorted coldly.

"Quickly tell me what I want to know! The Ye Family’s array and matters concerning my mother! Don’t force me to take action myself!"

Ye Qingtian’s gaze fixed on Long Wuya.

"Ye Family’s array? What? You know?"

Long Wuya looked panicked.

"That broken array has already been broken by me!"

Ye Qingtian said.

"Ah? That array has been broken by you? You... you, you... what kind of existence are you?"

This time, Long Wuya was even more shocked.

"At least beyond your imagination!"

Ye Qingtian looked at him.

"Since you already know about the array, I won’t say too much. Indeed, I had a hand in it back then. Everything that happened that year to the Ye Family had direct relations with my manipulation of the array."

"Continue!"

"But I was under orders, and it was he who killed me! Creating the state I’m in now!"

"Who is he?"

"I don’t know, but his strength was completely overwhelming. Oh, he’s Japanese. I once calculated a divination for him, and the hexagram indicates he was born by seizing the fortunes of heaven and earth, beyond my cognitive scope."

Ye Qingtian frowned: "If nothing else, it should be the force behind the seizure of the Ye Family’s fortunes, right? But why did he act over a decade ago, targeting me?"

"He was targeting you, but I don’t know the exact reason."

Long Wuya shook his head.

"What’s the situation with Long Yuxin and her child?"

Ye Qingtian asked.

"That should be his purpose! I heard Long Yuxin’s child is quite suspicious. It’s unknown why he’d be sent to the Ye Family!"

Long Wuya replied.

Long Wuya glanced at Ye Qingtian and said: "I feel it should be related to Ye Kuangfeng! My intuition tells me he’s aimed at Ye Kuangfeng!"

Ye Qingtian’s expression changed, and he immediately used the Netherworld Forbidden Technique.

"Ugh..."

Even though Long Wuya had no physical form, he still let out cries of pain, seemingly from the depths of his soul.

Ye Qingtian directly occupied Long Wuya’s consciousness, returning to over a decade ago.

Gradually, images of a mysterious person approaching Long Wuya appeared in Ye Qingtian’s eyes.

The mysterious person was shrouded in a layer of black mist, but as Ye Qingtian’s gaze flashed, the black mist before his eyes dispersed, revealing a face.

It was an enchanting woman with an appearance that could topple countries.

But Ye Qingtian knew the woman was pretending to be young; she was quite old but had a youthful facade.

Ye Qingtian further sensed a hint of venomous resentment from her eyes, seemingly carrying immense grievances.

She used an evil magic on Long Wuya, which, while killing him, allowed him to persist without dissipating, surviving in this form.

Burning her image into his mind, Ye Qingtian withdrew the Netherworld Forbidden Technique.

"Ugh!"

Long Wuya let out a miserable scream, shattering and scattering into the heavens and earth.

This time, he vanished completely!

"Japan, is it? I shall see who made a move!"

Ye Qingtian’s eyes displayed a trace of violent killing intent, like stormy waves.
