The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 259: Just a Huaxia Person

"How... how could it be him?"

Chiba Chikafu was struck as if by lightning, his entire being felt fried from the inside out.

The only person in the world who haunted his nightmares had appeared, and it was here in Japan.

If he were to reveal those secrets, Chiba Chikafu’s life would be ruined forever.

"Take me to the Hattori Clan!"

Ye Qingtian said coldly.

"Why..."

Hattori Yumi was about to ask, but Chiba Chikafu interrupted: "Miss Hattori Yumi, this is my friend from Huaxia. You may call him Yejun!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chiba Chikafu approached Ye Qingtian, pleading softly, "Please, I’m begging you to spare me! I’ll help you with anything you want!"

"Alright, take me to the Hattori Clan."

Ye Qingtian replied.

"Of course! We’re at a gathering now, with many from the Hattori Clan present. Tomorrow, we will go to the Hattori Clan to celebrate the patriarch Hattori Gosei’s birthday. All members of the Hattori Clan will be there."

Chiba Chikafu quickly explained.

"Oh? Celebrate a birthday? Everyone in the Hattori Clan will be there?"

Ye Qingtian smiled.

Adele had mentioned recently that Hattori Chihane had been elusive and hard to find.

But for this big birthday celebration, Hattori Chihane would definitely show up.

"Alright, I’ll go with you then!"

Ye Qingtian agreed.

Hearing that Ye Qingtian was Chiba Chikafu’s friend, the crowd lost interest.

However, Kitajima Junmi approached Ye Qingtian, scrutinizing him with a suspicious gaze: "Are you from Huaxia?"

"He already said so, didn’t he?"

Ye Qingtian sneered.

"I heard you were looking for the Hattori Clan?"

Kitajima Junmi’s beautiful eyes flickered, her gaze sharp like blades, as if to see through Ye Qingtian.

"Miss Kitajima Junmi, my friend from Huaxia is just interested in witnessing a grand event, nothing more."

Chiba Chikafu immediately stepped in to smooth things over.

"Oh!"

Kitajima Junmi gave Ye Qingtian a deep look, then turned and left.

"Is there something strange about Junmi?"

Hattori Yumi asked curiously.

"I just feel that his intentions are impure! It’s not as simple as it seems!"

Kitajima Junmi said worriedly.

Hattori Yumi snorted coldly: "Just a Huaxia person, what kind of trouble can he cause!"

"Speaking of Huaxia, he reminds me of someone..."

Kitajima Junmi said with a face full of longing.

"Who?"

"Ye Xiaoyao!"

Hattori Yumi froze: "Who is he?"

"I’ve heard a little from my father and brothers, this person comes from Xiaxi in Huaxia, reputed to be the number one genius in the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm, first reaching the top of the Hidden Dragon List, then defeating the Five Dragons of Huaxia, and climbing to the top of the Huaxia Dragon List! My father and brothers are very eager to battle him!"

Kitajima Junmi said.

"The number one genius of the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm? Also reaching the top of the Huaxia Dragon List? This person is too incredible! I really want to meet him!"

Hattori Yumi exclaimed repeatedly.

Kitajima Junmi couldn’t help but nod: "Yes, I also want to meet him, to see just how formidable he is?"

That night.

Chiba Chikafu felt uneasy.

In the middle of the night, he finally dialed a phone number.

"I need your help, to kill someone. But not now, it has to be after the Hattori Clan’s banquet tomorrow!"

After hanging up, Chiba Chikafu exhaled a long breath of relief.

"Sorry, Yejun, since you’ve come to Japan, the only way I can feel a bit more at ease is if you stay here forever!"

Chiba Chikafu’s eyes flashed with cold light.

A silent night.

The next day, these young people all set off to the Hattori Clan by car.

"Junmi, I told you there was no problem with him. Last night I had someone watch over him, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. It’s just that Huaxia people are inherently arrogant!"

Hattori Yumi glanced at Kitajima Junmi and said.

"Alright, if that’s the case, then that’s best."

Kitajima Junmi no longer paid attention to Ye Qingtian.

About two hours later, they arrived at a bamboo forest, passing through it, revealing an area lined with Japanese-style buildings.

This is the Hattori Clan!

Today, the Hattori Clan was bustling with activity, adorned with festive decorations.

"Miss!"

Upon seeing Hattori Yumi arrive, the Hattori Clan’s guards bowed collectively.

The news of Hattori Yumi’s return quickly spread throughout the entire Hattori Clan.

In no time, all the core members of the Hattori Clan gathered.

Leading them was the patriarch, Hattori Gosei, accompanied by the core members of the Hattori Clan.

Including Hattori Yumi’s father, Hattori Nari, and her brother, Hattori Sendo.

Furthermore, other family forces who came to celebrate Hattori Gosei’s birthday also gathered.

Because the eldest daughter of the Kitajima Clan was personally present.

This was the existence that they all revered.

"The Hattori Clan warmly welcomes Miss Kitajima Junmi..."

Hattori Gosei was full of joy.

His birthday banquet had members from the Six Great Martial Arts Families coming to congratulate, making him shine with pride.

Kitajima Junmi expressed her thoughts courteously, making the Hattori Clan even more excited.

The young generation present all gazed at Kitajima Junmi with admiration — she was their goddess.

But this goddess could only be gazed upon...

Not for any other reason, but because she was also a Sword Dao genius, and among the young generation present, there was likely no one who could be her match, let alone pursue her.

When Hattori Sendo saw Kitajima Junmi at that moment, he was deeply entranced.

Not until that moment did he realize that his previous happiness was not true happiness, his former goddess was not a true goddess.

He clenched his fist, speaking to Hattori Nari, "Father, I swear I will pursue Miss Kitajima Junmi! I will definitely win her over!"

"Alright, Sendo, keep it up! The Hattori Clan will be proud of you!"

Hattori Nari heavily patted his shoulder.

As a genius of this generation in the Hattori Clan, Hattori Sendo was quite formidable, having long surpassed the hurdle of Martial King, with a promising future.

Amid the crowd, two figures slowly approached Chiba Chikafu.

"Once he leaves the Hattori Clan, make sure you kill him!"

Chiba Chikafu glanced at Ye Qingtian’s back, feeling anxious.

Chiba Chikafu awkwardly smiled as he returned next to Ye Qingtian.

Ye Qingtian’s smile deepened, a smile filled with meaning.

That innocent smile sent a shiver down Chiba Chikafu’s spine, his skin prickling.

"Don’t you want to know why I came to the Hattori Clan?"

Ye Qingtian suddenly asked.

"Yeah! What is he here for?"

Preoccupied with his own issues, Chiba Chikafu had neglected to consider what Ye Qingtian was doing in Japan.

Only after Ye Qingtian’s reminder did he realize.

"What is it for?"

Chiba Chikafu trembled slightly as he asked, sensing something ominous.

"You’ll find out soon enough!"

Ye Qingtian’s lips curled into a strange smile, and suddenly he moved towards the center, heading for the congregation of Hattori Clan members.
