The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 282: The Woman Who Controls the Royal Family

"Number One?"

Numbers Three and Four’s eyes widened in disbelief.

In the Fifth Team, Number One was undoubtedly the strongest. He left behind countless legends and was deemed a taboo figure.

No one knew the extent of his true strength.

All they knew was that he had long achieved the status of Martial Emperor!

"Not only that, I’ve heard that the foremost fighter of the Japan Royal Family might also take action!"

The person added.

"The foremost fighter of the Japan Royal Family?"

Numbers Three and Four’s faces turned pale with shock.

In reality, the Japan Royal Family is separate from the Martial Arts Dao, and no one knows its true depth.

For instance, no one outside knows who the foremost fighter of the Japan Royal Family is.

"A deathtrap! This time is truly a deathtrap!"

Number Four had abandoned all hope.

Number Three couldn’t help but say, "You must be Japan’s top ninja, Hattori Kizo?"

Hattori Kizo did not reveal himself.

"What means do you have to rescue us, Hattori Kizo?"

Number Three asked.

"As long as the Huaxia kid can leave the Japan Royal Family, I can ensure his safety!"

Hattori Kizo replied confidently.

"Understood! It’s up to Ye Xiaoyao now to hold on and make it out of the Japan Royal Family!"

Number Three silently prayed.

...

Inside the Imperial Palace of the Japan Royal Family.

"So you knew all along that we set everything up waiting for you, yet you still came, and even brought two burdens!"

Prince Kawajin asked curiously.

"Didn’t you just ask me what my dream is?"

Ye Qingtian said.

Upon hearing this, Prince Kawajin’s face twitched violently, "To kill some people?"

At that moment, he grasped Ye Qingtian’s meaning.

But then, Prince Kawajin burst into laughter, "Ye Xiaoyao, you don’t understand your predicament! Now, the entire Japan Martial Arts Realm, Dark World, and all the major financial groups want to eliminate you! Do you know there are thousands of masters waiting for you outside the Royal Family! You can’t possibly comprehend the kind of existence you’re up against!"

Not even Ye Qingtian, nor Prince Kawajin, could imagine the determination of various Japanese forces to kill Ye Xiaoyao!

This was unprecedented!

Countless powerful beings were gathering here!

"So you think I’ll die?"

Ye Qingtian asked with a smile.

"Otherwise? Do you think you have a way out without joining the Royal Family?"

Prince Kawajin replied with a cold smile.

"Fine, very well. Since that’s the case, I won’t kill you now. I’ll show you how pathetic the Japan Martial Arts Realm is! So-called gathering of strong ones? I’ll kill them for you to see!"

Ye Qingtian’s smile curled coldly.

Prince Kawajin looked at him and said, "Ye Xiaoyao, to be honest, you can’t even make it out of the Japan Royal Family!"

Ye Qingtian’s smile deepened, "Oh? Is that so? Then let’s see tomorrow!"

To everyone’s surprise, Ye Qingtian actually returned to the residence with Shen Huamo and Du Xueyan, appearing leisurely as if he was on vacation.

"Will Qingtian be alright?"

Du Xueyan asked softly.

"Auntie, do you think I’m someone reckless?"

Ye Qingtian asked.

Du Xueyan looked at him seriously, then shook her head.

Though the time spent together was short, Ye Qingtian’s calm and confidence ensured he’d accomplish anything with assurance.

"So just treat this like a holiday. Go ahead and post on WeChat Moments!"

Ye Qingtian said with a smile.

Only then did Shen Huamo and Du Xueyan relax and enjoy themselves in the Japan Royal Family.

Prince Kawajin and others were completely bewildered; they couldn’t comprehend Ye Qingtian at all.

Even if Shen Huamo and Du Xueyan were far from Ye Qingtian, they dared not make a move.

The terror of Ye Qingtian they had witnessed firsthand.

Uehara Meiko and Ikeda Hoshinako were simply stunned; Ye Qingtian was definitely the most unique man they had ever encountered.

Ye Qingtian and his group stayed a night at the Japan Royal Family.

But that night, none from the Japan Royal Family slept.

All the princes gathered together, their expressions anxious, seemingly waiting for some important figure.

At that moment, all eight princes of the Japan Royal Family were gathered, with Prince Kawajin being merely one of them.

Soon, there was the sound of gentle footsteps outside the palace.

A woman in a luxurious kimono approached.

The woman looked no older than twenty-seven or twenty-eight, with exquisite features, a porcelain-like complexion, and a perfectly beautiful, cold face. Her slender eyes exuded even more aloofness, she exuded an aura that kept people at bay.

"Princess Yasuko!"

Everyone greeted respectfully.

It was hard to imagine someone of Prince Kawajin’s level being so respectful to a girl.

The reason was simple; Nakajima Yasuko held high authority.

She was the current Emperor’s elder sister. As the Emperor practiced in the forbidden grounds of the palace, she was the master of the Japan Royal Family.

No one dared to disobey her commands.

"I heard Ye Xiaoyao is with our Royal Family?"

Nakajima Yasuko asked coldly.

"Princess Yasuko, Ye Xiaoyao is in my mansion..."

Prince Kawajin recounted the events of the day.

"Well, Ye Xiaoyao is even more formidable than we imagined! He can even kill Ghost Shadow Ninja; it shows how terrifying he is!"

Nakajima Yasuko scanned the crowd with her eyes, "The six great families of the Martial Arts Realm have already communicated with me; their determination is immense. They must keep Ye Xiaoyao in Japan; otherwise, our Japanese Martial Arts Realm will be suppressed for at least a hundred years without a chance to breathe!"

"If we fight such a super strong individual, even if we manage to kill him, we would suffer significant losses. The best way is to keep him in Japan and use him for the Royal Family!"

Other princes suggested.

"It’s no use; I’ve said all I needed to say. I even proposed my daughter to marry him, yet he refused!"

Prince Kawajin suddenly looked at Nakajima Yasuko and couldn’t help but suggest, "Princess Yasuko, I think you should try. With your beauty and strength, no man in this world would dare refuse!"

"Alright, I will personally go see him! Also, order everyone to be ready! If the situation changes, we must kill Ye Xiaoyao! Demonstrate the Royal Family’s power, while intimidating the Martial Arts Realm!"

Nakajima Yasuko commanded.

...

At night, Ye Qingtian was resting with his eyes closed.

Suddenly the door opened, and Uehara Meiko and Ikeda Minako entered.

"Mr. Ye Xiaoyao, please leave quickly. We know a secret passage that can lead out of the Royal Family!"

The two urged anxiously.

"Why should we leave?"

Shen Huamo asked, puzzled.

"Mr. Ye Xiaoyao, Princess Yasuko has returned! She now holds the highest power in the Royal Family! She’s gathered many legendary warriors, preparing to deal with you! We heard from father that the Japan Royal Family is determined to keep you."

The two explained.

Suddenly, Ye Qingtian spoke, "Sorry, it’s too late to leave now."

As everyone wondered, footsteps sounded outside.

When the room door opened, Nakajima Yasuko appeared with others.

"Oh? This woman is a Half-Step Martial Emperor?"

Ye Qingtian showed slight surprise.
