The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 260: [Once a Genius]

"Hey, Yejun, where are you going? That’s not a place you should be, come back."

Chiba Chikafu tried to stop Ye Qingtian, but it was too late; Ye Qingtian had already entered the scene.

"Move aside!"

Ye Qingtian pushed away everyone blocking his path and appeared in the center in front of the Hattori Clan’s plaza, standing next to Kitajima Junmi.

The sudden entrance left everyone dumbfounded, staring blankly.

The members of the Hattori Clan were even more at a loss, staring foolishly.

Kitajima Junmi and Hattori Yumi were astonished to see Ye Qingtian appear, unable to suppress their surprise, their beautiful eyes full of disbelief.

"Who is this person? What is he here for?"

That was the question on everyone’s mind.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

Hattori Sendo locked his powerful aura onto Ye Qingtian, asking harshly.

How could the dignified Hattori Clan allow anyone to cause trouble?

Moreover, with Kitajima Junmi here, how could Hattori Sendo lose his composure?

"Tell Hattori Chihane to come out!"

Ye Qingtian’s voice boomed like a spring thunder, echoing above the Hattori Clan.

"Hattori Chihane? Hmm? Wasn’t he the once most talented of the Hattori Clan? Known as the youngest Martial King, and later broke through to Martial Emperor in the shortest time, but eventually became obsessed with women and lost interest in martial arts. He’s been gone for a long time!"

"Yeah, if Hattori Chihane had kept pushing himself, the Hattori Clan’s status would’ve surely risen by another level!"

"But I heard that Hattori Chihane will also attend the clan’s birthday banquet!"

"Who is this young man daring enough to challenge the Hattori Clan? Looking for death?"

...

The crowd was abuzz with speculation.

The faces of the Hattori Clan members gradually became unsightly; being mentioned in such a setting was certainly not a glorious affair.

Kitajima Junmi’s beautiful eyes focused on Ye Qingtian, watching him with interest.

She exchanged a glance with Hattori Yumi, as if saying: See, wasn’t I right? Something is off about him.

Hattori Sendo confronted Ye Qingtian aggressively, speaking coldly: "Kid, are you here to make trouble on purpose? Don’t you know today is my grandfather’s birthday banquet? And you’re demanding my uncle to come out! Such audacity, kneel immediately and apologize to me, and I might spare your life!"

A chill flashed in Ye Qingtian’s eyes as he struck suddenly.

"Pa!"

With a slap, Hattori Sendo was sent flying away.

Upon landing, Hattori Sendo’s body convulsed, curling up like a shrimp.

His face was already a bloody mess.

The sudden scene shocked everyone present.

Ye Qingtian’s unhesitating action left many stunned.

Everyone knew Hattori Sendo was the leading talent of the Hattori Clan, with outstanding martial skills, and long ago a Martial King, ranked highly in the Japan Martial Arts Realm.

Yet he was sent flying with a slap...

"Hmm? He’s actually a martial artist? He’s not an ordinary person?"

Kitajima Junmi expressed continuous amazement, realizing she had misjudged.

"Brother..."

Hattori Yumi called softly, her eyes filled with disbelief that this Huaxia person had slapped her genius brother flying.

"How dare you touch my son, you seek death!"

Hattori Nari immediately struck, a swift and powerful palm force descending, even distorting the air!

He was a Mid-Stage Martial King, far stronger than Hattori Sendo.

"Pa!"

Yet he too was met with a slap, sent flying tens of meters, crashing through a building.

"Not good! His strength is formidable! Definitely not an ordinary person!"

The Hattori Clan finally realized the threat, but it was too late.

Ye Qingtian’s Qi Force surged around him like the blades of a giant fan rotating.

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

...

One by one, the experts of the Hattori Clan exploded into blood mist.

Hattori Gosei drew a samurai sword with a swish.

"Celestial River One-Stroke Slash!"

He slashed down, sword Qi surged, tearing through the air.

"Ding!"

Ye Qingtian pointed at the blade.

The sword Qi dissipated, and the samurai sword broke with a snap.

"Puff!"

Hattori Gosei was sent flying.

"Buzz!"

The broken samurai sword floated above Hattori Gosei’s forehead under Ye Qingtian’s control, ready to end his life if he released it.

...

The sound of a collective gasp filled the scene, everyone looked at Ye Qingtian with terror in their eyes.

In less than a minute, this young man had defeated the experts of the Hattori Clan, trampling them underfoot.

The rapid turn of events left no time for anyone to react.

"This..."

Witnessing this, Chiba Chikafu felt his scalp tingle, swallowing hard.

To think he wanted to hire assassins to deal with Ye Qingtian earlier, yet Ye Qingtian turned out to be so terrifying, effortlessly defeating the Hattori Clan.

Goosebumps rose, cold sweat continuously dripped down.

"Master..."

Hattori Yumi was nearly speechless, feeling a stark drop from paradise to hell.

"Hmm? A Half-Step Martial Emperor? Is he a genius from Huaxia?"

Kitajima Junmi kept her gaze fixed on Ye Qingtian.

"Aren’t you coming out, Hattori Chihane? The moment I release this, your father dies!"

Ye Qingtian spoke coldly.

"Insolent! How dare you behave disrespectfully in front of the North Island Clan’s young lady! Release Hattori Gosei this instant and kneel to apologize!"

Kitajima Junmi’s personal guards shouted angrily.

What Ye Qingtian did completely disregarded the North Island Clan; naturally, they had to intervene.

"Scram!"

Ye Qingtian’s voice boomed like a spring thunder, sweeping Kitajima Junmi’s guards away, killing them on the spot.

"Hattori Chihane, I give you three seconds: three, two, one..."

As Ye Qingtian’s words fell, the broken blade struck towards Hattori Gosei.

"Clang!"

Just as the blade approached his forehead, a Qi force shot like a bullet, knocking the blade away.

From the crowd, a person slowly emerged.

His face was haggard, unshaven, walking unsteadily, and reeking of alcohol even from afar.

This was no genius of the Hattori Clan, just a drunken mess.

"Hmm? Hattori Chihane? He really came?"

Someone recognized Hattori Chihane, exclaiming.

"Uncle Chihane, save our Hattori Clan!"

The younger generation of the Hattori Clan couldn’t help but shout, their gaze full of resentment toward Ye Qingtian.

Hattori Chihane walked to Hattori Gosei, helping him up, then looked at Ye Qingtian with murky eyes: "Are you looking for me?"

"You finally decided to show up!"

Ye Qingtian’s smile was meaningful.

"You killed my people, harmed my father and brothers. I will never forgive you!"

After speaking, brilliance flashed in Hattori Chihane’s eyes, his aura mighty like a dragon or tiger, vast like the sea.

Especially the martial seal on his brow, radiating a dazzling light!

Completely different from the earlier drunken state.

"Martial Emperor Cultivation! Super-grade Middle-tier Martial Seal! As expected of the former genius of the Hattori Clan! If he had pursued martial arts, he’d surely hold a position in the Japan Martial Arts Realm!"

"Indeed, perhaps standing alongside the Six Great Martial Arts Families!"
