The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 326: That Silhouette

Zhu Zhongtian sneered repeatedly, "Ye Xiaoyao, don’t think that being number one on the Huaxia Dragon List or the International War God List means anything. To tell you the truth, these rankings are just a joke in the Hidden Sect. They are nothing more than child’s play, not worth mentioning."

"Today, I will show you what true Martial Arts Mastery is!"

Zhu Zhongtian looked at Ye Qingtian with disdain.

Zhu Tiechao and the others also wore expressions of superiority, viewing the Mortal World as nothing more than ants.

They never took remarkable figures from the Mortal World seriously.

It’s akin to how the Divine Realm views mortals as ants, regardless of their might, they’re forever insignificant in the eyes of the Divine Realm.

"However, I can give you a chance. Kneel down and apologize, then return the spirit medicine you took with both hands! Afterward, become a Medicine Slave of the Medicine King Valley, and I will spare you. If you perform well, I might even grant you some cultivation techniques and elixirs."

A chilling light flickered in Zhu Zhongtian’s eyes, and he seemed like a Tyrannosaurus, his powerful aura enveloping Ye Qingtian.

"Kneel down and apologize, boy!"

Zhu Tiechao and others urged.

"Kill!"

A cold light flickered in Ye Qingtian’s eyes.

Zhu Zhongtian and the others didn’t even notice that Zero had disappeared long ago.

"Buzz..."

Suddenly, a tremor echoed in the air.

A violent stream of air burst forth like a spatial storm from the depths of the void, invincible, exuding an aura of destruction.

"Swoosh!"

The stream of air suddenly expanded, morphing into a human figure.

Zero swiftly brushed past Zhu Zhongtian, immediately followed by a blood arrow shooting out, dazzling and shocking.

Zhu Zhongtian’s body slowly collapsed to the ground.

His eyes nearly popped out; he didn’t even know how he died at the last moment.

The environment for Zero’s assassination was perfect just now!

Zhu Zhongtian and his group’s attention was entirely on Ye Qingtian, looking down on him in every possible way.

They paid even less attention to Zero, allowing him to execute a one-hit kill.

Zhu Tiechao and others from Medicine King Valley were stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief.

The dignified Young Master of Medicine King Valley from the Hidden Sect, claimed to be a genius of the Hidden Sect’s Yellow-level Sect, was instantly killed by Ye Xiaoyao’s subordinate?

A one-hit kill?

This was simply unbelievable.

Chu Ciyi and her maids were also dumbfounded!

Originally, they thought Ye Qingtian was in danger, but unexpectedly, his subordinate easily killed Zhu Zhongtian.

"Get lost! Carry the body away!"

Zero shouted coldly.

Zhu Tiechao and his people reacted and immediately carried Zhu Zhongtian’s corpse away.

The death of the Young Master of Medicine King Valley would undoubtedly be the biggest event in Medicine King Valley in a century.

Though not a true Hidden Sect, Medicine King Valley was very close.

Within the Martial Arts Realm, the status of an Alchemy Master from Medicine King Valley was highly esteemed.

The death of the Young Master of Medicine King Valley would be a massive issue for these border-line Martial Arts Sects with Hidden Sect influence.

There’s a high possibility that if Medicine King Valley raises a call, these martial arts influences will unite against Ye Qingtian.

"Brew some tea!"

Ye Qingtian commanded coldly.

"Yes, Young Master Ye."

Chu Ciyi nodded.

The main reason Ye Qingtian came to Chu Ciyi’s place was that the Ye Family’s ancestral residence was too crowded these days.

Du Xuening and the others were still arranging a match for Ye Qingtian; he couldn’t say much, so he came out to avoid the spotlight.

Just as Chu Ciyi had invited him over for tea, Ye Qingtian came, unexpectedly encountering Zhu Zhongtian.

Chu Ciyi wisely refrained from mentioning anything about Medicine King Valley.

Throughout, Ye Qingtian never even glanced at Chu Ciyi, instead, he was deeply engrossed in the tea.

By this time, the news of Zhu Zhongtian’s death had spread, particularly shocking the Fifth Team and Wangyue Pavilion.

They exclaimed that Ye Qingtian was insane!

He even dared to easily kill the Young Master of a major Hidden Sect!

"Ah, as I expected. Ye Xiaoyao, with his sharpness, is bound to clash with the Hidden Sects sooner or later!"

One said with a sigh.

"Indeed, we should have foreseen this day when Ye Xiaoyao was on the rise. How far he can go in the future depends on him!"

The second remarked.

"This is great!"

"Yes, this girl isn’t bad."

When returning to the Ye Family ancestral residence in the evening, Du Xuening and others were fervently discussing.

Upon seeing Ye Qingtian, everyone paused, asking where he had been all day.

However, Du Xuening smiled at Ye Qingtian and said, "Xiaoyao, I heard you didn’t like Fang Lingfei. Rest assured! We won’t decide for you anymore, fully supporting you. Besides, you’re at the pinnacle of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao, how can our judgment compare to yours?"

"Yes, alright."

Ye Qingtian nodded.

Then, Ye Qingtian changed the subject, "I heard Ye Kuangfeng visited you more than once. If you want to meet him, go ahead. However, I have nothing to do with him, so please don’t play the emotional card."

"Yes, Xiaoyao, I understand."

Du Xuening nodded in relief.

Ye Qingtian suddenly noticed the large booklet in Du Xuening’s hand, which they seemed to be discussing earlier.

"Mom, what is that in your hand?"

Ye Qingtian asked out of curiosity.

"Qingtian, this is a compilation your uncle made of single girls in Tianjing and surrounding cities. Your grandparents want you to choose one as a wife."

Du Xuening chuckled sheepishly.

"How boring! Ah well, can’t waste my uncle’s good intentions."

Ye Qingtian casually took the booklet and flipped through it.

The female profiles listed in the booklet were extremely detailed, complete with photos and physical measurements, showing much effort was put in.

After going through a few pages, Ye Qingtian showed little interest.

Honestly, the booklet paled in comparison to Nakajima Keiko and Shen Huamo nearby.

Hua Qingfei was listed too, but Ye Qingtian barely glanced at her.

Many of the Hua Family’s daughters were talented, so Ye Qingtian flipped a few more pages.

Just as he was about to stop and close the booklet.

He was struck by a photograph, only a back view, that stunned him rigidly.

"Oh, this photograph only shows a back view! This girl is also from the Hua Family, but she’s from a collateral branch. She immigrated abroad years ago and has almost no connection with the Hua Family. She was only filtered out during the Hua Family’s networking. Don’t blame the Hua Family."

Du Xuening thought Ye Qingtian was angry and couldn’t help saying.

"No, mom, it’s her!"

Ye Qingtian exclaimed with joy.

Upon seeing this back view, it immediately overlapped entirely with the one in his dreams.

Although Hua Qingfei’s silhouette was also very similar, even overlapable.

The back in front of him was like a dagger piercing Ye Qingtian’s heart, hitting right at the mark.

"Ah?"

Everyone was stunned, looking at Ye Qingtian in disbelief.

Out of so many beauties, he chose one with only a back-view photo?

Ye Qingtian plucked the back-view picture and immediately said, "Find this girl for me as quickly as possible! Get the Hua Family on it right away!"
