The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 279: A Greater Crisis Approaches

Upon hearing these words, the faces of Ueshima Tenjin and the others changed dramatically, and the expressions of the other people were also very unpleasant.

The Japan Royal Family holds a heavy position in Japan, and even the great families of the Martial Arts Realm are deeply afraid.

Although the Yagyu Clan is not taken seriously, at least a superficial respect is required, but Ye Qingtian, on the other hand, exhibited such a direct attitude.

Ueshima Tenjin’s face twitched fiercely, but after calming his emotions, he smiled and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Ye Xiaoyao for the triumph against War God Yagyu Mugen! Someday, you will be famous throughout the world. Our Japan Royal Family is eager to connect with a genius like Mr. Ye. If you have some time, could you visit the Japan Royal Family?"

Ye Qingtian’s lips curled into a cold smile: "Alright, Aunt, I’ll take you for a stroll around the Imperial Palace of Japan. It’s a pity grandfather and the others didn’t come."

"Ah?"

Shen Huamo and the others were dumbfounded. Ye Qingtian agreed just like that?

"That’s truly wonderful! We await Mr. Ye!"

Ueshima Tenjin laughed.

Subsequently, the entourage of the Japan Royal Family descended the mountain first.

...

"Congratulations, Young Master Ye! You have shown the mighty spirit of Huaxia!"

The Northern Army and others arrived, all extending their congratulations to Ye Qingtian.

The Eastern Demon looked embarrassed but still congratulated Ye Qingtian.

Soon, numbers three and four of the Fifth Team approached Ye Qingtian.

Number four directly asked, "Did the Japan Royal Family just invite you?"

Ye Qingtian glanced at him, not saying a word.

Beside him, Shen Huamo couldn’t help but say, "Yes, we were invited. Why? Is there a problem?"

"You absolutely must not go!"

Number four’s tone bore a hint of gravity and urgency.

Number four looked seriously at Ye Qingtian, saying, "You need to return to Huaxia with us right now, immediately!"

"Why? Are you worried someone wants to attack the master?"

There was a hint of incredulity in Shen Huamo’s words: "The master just defeated the strongest expert of the Japan Martial Arts Realm! Who could do anything to him?"

Number three, who had been silent, spoke up: "You don’t understand! Although Ye Xiaoyao is indeed first in the world, being first does not mean he’s without danger."

"Oh, I get it. Apart from the people from Huaxia present, there’s no one who wants the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm to be this prosperous. The various forces in Japan don’t want the master to leave alive, so now the crisis is even more about lurking threats!"

Shen Huamo quickly realized, looking astonished.

Number three nodded: "Yes, exactly! So, Ye Xiaoyao, we should hurry and leave now while they’re off-guard."

But Ye Qingtian didn’t look at them, proceeding straight away.

"Hey! Ye Xiaoyao, what are you doing? Stand still!"

Number four shouted, but throughout, Ye Qingtian treated them like air, ignoring them.

"Alas!"

Number three sighed deeply.

"That’s just Ye Xiaoyao’s character! Asking him to retreat is simply impossible!"

The voice of the Northern Army sounded.

Through this period, he had come to know Ye Qingtian that way.

"What do we do? Does he not know he’s facing an inescapable trap?"

Number four couldn’t help asking, his fists tightly clenched.

The Northern Army shook his head: "There’s no way! Unless someone captures him back, or he returns himself."

After this battle by Ye Qingtian, the most shocked was undoubtedly Huaxia.

All the great clans and forces were practically going crazy!

Invincible throughout Huaxia and then going to Japan, defeating the Yagyu Clan where they couldn’t lift their heads and beating Japan’s foremost genius, finally slaughtering Japan’s strongest.

The Du Family was jubilant, and Old Master Du Lijun looked as if even his eyebrows were smiling.

Tianjing’s various elite families came to offer their congratulations. Now the Du Family was firmly established in Tianjing.

Even Ye Longkun came to visit the Du Family, having to speak with humility to the family that was once kicked away.

"Haha, Qingtian is truly our pride! Xue Ning, can you see your son? He’s so powerful now! Even his fiancée has to be at the level of the Pavilion Master’s daughter from the Wangyue Pavilion!"

Du Lijun was very happy.

In the crowd, the faces of Wangyue Pavilion’s Sheng Yunhan and others twitched fiercely: "We truly didn’t expect Ye Xiaoyao to win!"

"It’s good that he won; it’s a lucky event for the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm!"

Fang Lingfei’s expression was rather calm.

Today was indeed a grand event for the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm.

After all, Ye Qingtian had won the most pinnacle battle in a hundred years.

However, the members of the Fifth Team all had somber faces because they had just received news.

Now that Ye Qingtian had won, he was in even greater danger!

This time, Japan’s various forces will undoubtedly exhaust all their resources to keep Ye Xiaoyao forever in Japan!

"What do we do now? Number One, you must keep the promise, but you can’t personally go to Japan!!"

The members of the Fifth Team were troubled.

"How about inviting experts from Wangyue Pavilion to lend a hand?"

Someone suggested.

Number One shook his head: "It’s too late! It seems I can only thick-skinnedly ask someone for help!"

"Who is the old friend Number One refers to?"

Everyone asked curiously.

"Hattori Kizo!"

Number One said.

"The long-vanished number one ninja in Japan, reputed as the ghost Hattori Kizo?"

Everyone was astonished.

He was once a legend within the Black Dragon Dao of Japan’s Dark World but later retired.

"Yes, that’s correct. Back then, he only lost one move to me and promised me one promise! It’s time for him to come out!"

Number One said.

"So, does Ye Xiaoyao have a chance to be protected?"

Everyone was surprised.

"As long as he takes action, Ye Xiaoyao will certainly be protected!"

Number One had great confidence in this legendary ninja of Japan.

...

At the foot of Mount Fuji, the Japan Royal Family unexpectedly waited.

Ueshima Tenjin, Uehara Meiko, and others warmly welcomed Ye Qingtian and his companions into the vehicles, making numerous young talents of the Japan Martial Arts Clans envious.

Young talents being invited into the Japan Royal Family is indeed an illustrious honor.

However, elders from the Six Great Martial Arts Families had a sneer on their lips: "What’s there to be envious of? They’re about to become dead men."

"What do you mean?"

Someone asked, puzzled.

"Hurry back and prepare!"

The major martial arts families hurriedly left.

The Japan Martial Arts Realm was surging with undercurrents, a great battle was about to ensue.

The Japan Royal Family was somewhat different from what people imagined; precisely speaking, it’s equivalent to a martial arts institution.

About two hours later, Ye Qingtian and his companions arrived at the legendary Japan Royal Family.

It could only be described with one sentence: heavily guarded.

Ye Qingtian noticed many experts guarding the periphery; a palace appeared before his eyes.

Even the guards at the gate were formidable martial artists, led by two Martial Form experts.

The historical depth of the Japan Royal Family is exceedingly deep.

Even Ueshima Tenjin, a Prince of the Royal Family, underwent extremely strict checks.

After entering, the car parked at a designated spot, necessitating that one get out and walk.

Within the palace, it’s very spacious, almost as if stepping back into ancient times.

However, one could find the style of Huaxia in almost all the architecture.

"Qingtian, I feel something is wrong,"

Du Xueyan was very sensitive, unable to help but ask,
