The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 317: The One Who Split the Heavens with a Single Sword

Then came the stir across Asia and internationally.

Ye Xiaoyao charged into Han Country solo, first taking out all the top hundred killers in Asia; then he crushed the Li Family’s ace guard, the Celestial Star Fleet, taking down over a dozen helicopters and sinking four warships; afterwards, he set foot on Celestial Star Island and subdued the Li Family; finally, in one move, he eliminated Heaven and Earth Two Saints, ranked ninth on the International War God List.

The world boiled over!

Especially Ye Qingtian’s feat of a Martial Arts Strong Person confronting modern military forces, which set the Martial Arts Realm of various countries ablaze with excitement.

In recent decades, with the rapid development of technological weapons, martial artists have been vaguely suppressed.

Yet this battle, Ye Qingtian showed everyone that a Martial Arts Strong Person is unbeatable.

The martial artist circle was thoroughly shaken, revering Ye Xiaoyao as a Divine Spirit.

Subsequently, the rankings of the International War God List were updated.

Ye Xiaoyao directly rose from tenth to sixth!

Leaping four places!

The Huaxia Martial Arts Realm was even more jubilant, Ye Qingtian achieved what others could scarcely imagine.

"Getting closer and closer!"

"Ye Xiaoyao now resembles Lin Kunlun, who was once known as the sword that cuts through the heavens!"

Some veteran Martial Arts Strong Persons began comparing Ye Qingtian to one person—Lin Kunlun.

The Pavilion Master of Wangyue Pavilion and others can never forget Lin Kunlun’s earth-shattering sword, which immediately sealed the list and ranked first on the War God List.

Ye Qingtian now seems poised to follow that trend, moving infinitely close.

Many are already anticipating, eager to see what heights Ye Qingtian will achieve!

...

When Ye Qingtian returned to the North Island resort, everything was handled well, as if nothing had ever happened.

He returned to his room, where Park Bao’er still lay unconscious on the bed.

He furrowed his brows and instructed Jin Wenlu to have Park Bao’er carried away.

Just as Ye Qingtian settled into the hotel, Li Minghai came bustling in, followed by a lineup of beauties, all bare-faced, trembling, with anxiety written on their faces.

"Master, I didn’t know what type you preferred, so I brought all types. Rest assured, these are the top female artists of Han Country! Furthermore, they’re all virgins. Master, you can be completely at ease!"

Li Minghai’s setup actually startled Ye Qingtian.

Just then, two female attendants sent by Jin Wenlu brought Park Bao’er out, and all the actresses couldn’t help but let out a gasp.

They all recognized Park Bao’er, and seeing her unconscious, all the actresses covered their mouths in shock as they looked at Ye Qingtian.

What had he done to Park Bao’er?

Seeing this, Li Minghai gave a suggestive smile and then left: "Master, please take your time to enjoy!"

Ye Qingtian’s brow furrowed deeper and he turned to enter the room.

Seven or eight top actresses stood stunned at the door, but they found a room card and still entered, startling Ye Qingtian.

"All of you, out! I prefer to sleep alone!"

Under Ye Qingtian’s powerful presence, these actresses could only leave.

Li Minghai’s instruction was for them to follow closely behind Ye Qingtian, there would be an opportunity.

Therefore, they did not leave but stayed nearby, waiting for a chance.

The next day.

Jin Wenlu took Ye Qingtian to Jiangyuan Province to find his mother.

The actresses, consulting with Li Minghai, hurriedly followed Ye Qingtian to Jiangyuan Province.

Even the Li Family sent people to Jiangyuan Province.

Jiangyuan Province is located in the northern part of Han Country, considered the most economically underdeveloped area in Han Country.

Du Xuening, along with her two capable best friends, built up the major enterprise Xiale Group in Jiangyuan Province, although not top-tier, it’s still influential.

Records show that Du Xuening is still single, while her two best friends are already married, and their children are not young.

Moreover, more information suggests that the husbands and children of Du Xuening’s best friends are gradually marginalizing her.

And Xiale Group is encountering a bottleneck, struggling to make further progress.

Du Xuening and her friends have built such a large company, her best friends are certainly capable, but it’s hard to guarantee the others.

In front of Xiale Group, the car stopped.

Ye Qingtian entered alone, bypassing everyone to enter the building.

Jin Wenlu and others were stunned; could it be the security outside couldn’t see Ye Qingtian?

Not only them, but inside, could no one see him either?

This scene looked as if Ye Qingtian was completely invisible.

Ye Qingtian wandered around the company lobby, confirmed the location of Du Xuening’s office, and proceeded directly there.

But upon reaching Du Xuening’s office, it was empty.

Ye Qingtian swept his consciousness and discovered Du Xuening in the conference room on the thirtieth floor.

In the thirtieth-floor conference room, a meeting was in full swing.

Du Xuening, as Chairman and CEO, was seated with her best friends Xiang Shuzhen and Lin Jing, and the three children of her best friends: Jiang Mingzhong, Song Zhi Xuan, and Song Yaxi.

Now, Xiale Group can practically be called a family enterprise, and Jiang Mingzhong and the other three hold key positions in the company, each owning five percent of the shares. Their shares, plus the forty percent of Xiang Shuzhen and Lin Jing, total fifty-five percent, surpassing Du Xuening’s forty percent alone.

"Chairman, the dining industry isn’t doing well right now, and we’re being suppressed from many sides! I say we should cooperate with the major consortiums in Jiangyuan Province!"

Jiang Mingzhong suggested.

Song Zhi Xuan and Song Yaxi chimed in: "Right, mutual benefit for all sides isn’t bad!"

Du Xuening didn’t directly answer them; her eyes turned to Xiang Shuzhen and Lin Jing: "What do you think?"

Xiang Shuzhen and Lin Jing exchanged glances and couldn’t help but say: "We think they have a point! All along, Xiale Group has been too conservative! Now, everything is declining; it’s time to take a risk!"

"Yes, Chairman taking a risk is better!"

The other directors shared similar opinions.

Du Xuening’s delicate face darkened somewhat, and she said coldly: "At this critical moment, you take a risk. Aren’t you afraid of being annexed by the major consortiums?"

"We’re talking about cooperation and mutual benefit!"

Jiang Mingzhong’s tone cooled slightly.

"Cooperation and mutual benefit? Haven’t the major consortiums in Jiangyuan Province done such things many times?"

Du Xuening countered.

"Chairman, you’re too cautious; in a year, the company will be at a loss."

The other directors chimed in.

"Right! We should take a risk! Let’s go on the offensive!"

Jiang Mingzhong and the others suddenly adopted a sharper tone.

Xiang Shuzhen and Lin Jing remained silent, but their attitude supported Jiang Mingzhong and the others.

This meant that all the pressure was concentrated on Du Xuening alone.

"When did this company become yours to command?"

Suddenly, a cold voice echoed in the conference room.

Along with the voice, the conference room door opened, and someone walked in from outside — it was Ye Qingtian.

"Who are you?"

Jiang Mingzhong asked, with everyone’s eyes turning to him, curious about Ye Qingtian.

Du Xuening’s gaze slowly turned as well, upon seeing Ye Qingtian for the first time, she paused, feeling somewhat familiar.

"Ye Qingtian!"

Ye Qingtian slowly uttered his name.
