The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 348: Battle of Wangyue Pavilion

The next day, in a mountainous area in the southwest of Huaxia, the air was filled with mist and various exotic herbs.

Especially as one delves deeper, they can see a sprawling field of medicinal herbs.

The fragrance of the herbs was so strong that just taking a whiff made one feel refreshed.

Walking here every day would essentially make one immune to all diseases.

The Medicine King Valley, on the edge of the Hidden Sect, was located here, at the Medicine King Hall.

The elders and high-ranking members of Medicine King Valley were present, and below the hall lay Ye Kuangfeng.

"Haha, now that Ye Xiaoyao’s own father is here, I don’t believe he wouldn’t come to meet his death?"

Someone sneered.

"That’s right. Once we force out Ye Xiaoyao’s legacy, we’ll kill him and use him as a medicinal catalyst. That will comfort the Young Master’s spirit in heaven!"

Everyone sneered.

One day.

Two days.

...

Time passed day by day, yet Ye Qingtian never appeared, as if he hadn’t received the message at all.

A full week went by, and there was still no sign of Ye Qingtian, making the people within Medicine King Valley anxious.

"Isn’t it strange? Could it be that the message never reached Ye Qingtian?"

Someone asked.

"The message definitely reached him, and Fang Yunjing even said that Ye Xiaoyao warned us not to provoke him, or he would destroy us."

The Cold Spirit King said.

"How presumptuous! Ye Xiaoyao disregards our Medicine King Valley; does he think we’ll send Ye Kuangfeng back? Impossible!"

An elder reprimanded.

"Since Ye Xiaoyao doesn’t come to accept his punishment, we’ll go to him. Gather the Hidden Sect forces, and we’ll assault Wangyue Pavilion to question Fang Yunjing, then head to Tianjing to bring back Ye Qingtian, before the Valley Master comes out of seclusion!"

The Grand Elder of Medicine King Valley announced.

"Understood, Grand Elder!"

Everyone responded in unison.

On this day, some Martial Arts Sects and Families on the edge of the Hidden Sect subtly began to move, first gathering at Medicine King Valley, then marching towards Wangyue Pavilion together.

At this moment, in the hall of Wangyue Pavilion.

Fang Yunjing sat at the head seat, with the masters of the Five Directions Tower gathered around.

Of course, the master of the Middle Tower, Young Master Wu Chen, was not here; he was guarding Wangyue Pavilion directly.

The master of the Eastern Tower, Tian Aozi, the master of the Western Tower, Qing Haichao, the master of the Northern Tower, Ren Xuyin, and the master of the Southern Tower, Guo Zhenxuan, were present.

Beside Fang Yunjing stood Ye Canghai and Fang Lingfei.

"Everyone, I’ve heard that Medicine King Valley has united with the Celestial Spirit Sect, Chizuru Sect, Xingchen Sect, and Holy Heaven Sect, the four great sects, to come to Wangyue Pavilion. Moreover, several Martial Arts Families from the Mortal World, under Medicine King Valley’s influence, have also sent people here!"

Fang Yunjing said coldly, his face showing a trace of seriousness.

"What is Medicine King Valley trying to do? Do they dare to destroy Wangyue Pavilion?"

Qing Haichao roared, his tone fierce.

Tian Aozi spoke: "Wangyue Pavilion indeed has this thought, as you all understand, at best, Wangyue Pavilion is only a sect on the edge of the Hidden Sect. Even if it’s destroyed, it can be quickly rebuilt."

"Right, exactly! Moreover, the responsibility for the death of the Young Master of Medicine King Valley in the Mortal World lies with us. We are at a disadvantage in terms of both reason and emotion."

Fang Yunjing nodded.

"What should the Pavilion Master do then?"

Ren Xuyin, the only female among the Five Directions Tower masters, could not help but ask.

"We can only rely on ourselves!"

Fang Yunjing said.

He changed the subject: "By the way, have all the disciples of your four towers been gathered?"

Qing Haichao, Ren Xuyin, and Guo Zhenxuan all said in unison: "Our disciples went to the Wolf Valley of the Seven Great Forbidden Lands to train a year ago; we’ve already sent a message for them to return. They will arrive today."

"That’s good!"

Fang Yunjing nodded.

At this moment, Sheng Yunhan ran in and said: "Master, something serious has happened! This time, the four guardians of Medicine King Valley, the Cold Spirit King, the Nine-Fingered Vajra, the Celestial Fire Qilin, and the Blood Hand Demon Buddha have all arrived. In addition, the Celestial Spirit True Monarch of the Celestial Spirit Sect, Master Chizuru of Chizuru Sect, the Star Venerable of Xingchen Sect, and the Saint Celestial Venerable of Holy Heaven Sect. A total of eight Martial Emperors have descended!"

"What? These four major sects actually dispatched such powerful experts here?"

Fang Yunjing almost jumped up in surprise.

The unexpected change was beyond his expectations.

"It seems Medicine King Valley is determined to act this time!"

Ren Xuyin and others said.

Immediately after, Fang Yunjing’s expression relaxed somewhat.

He thought to himself: Hopefully, Young Master Ye Xiaoyao can withstand this wave.

Ever since he heard the account from Number One that day, he had a lot of trust in Ye Xiaoyao.

He had already notified Ye Qingtian of this matter.

Far away in Tianjing, Ye Qingtian naturally received this message, which was conveyed to him by Ye Fengtian.

"I don’t want a bunch of small fry disturbing me in Tianjing, so let’s go!"

Ye Qingtian said coldly.

He and Ye Fengtian quickly headed towards Wangyue Pavilion. As they approached the deep mountains, Ye Fengtian drove an off-road vehicle through the forest.

"Young Master Ye, if you encounter any danger later, you should escape first! The Hidden Sect is really tough to deal with."

Ye Fengtian instructed.

Ye Qingtian smiled, Ye Fengtian seemed to be a decent person.

"With your talent, you should be able to achieve great things in the Hidden Sect, right? Why are you in the Mortal World?"

Ye Qingtian asked.

"Actually, entering the Hidden Sect for cultivation has always been my greatest dream, but unfortunately, there’s a rule, or rather a prohibition, in the Hidden Sect. No major sect or Martial Arts Clan would accept anyone from the Ye Family. Even Wangyue Pavilion dared not take me as a disciple. At that time, Young Master Wu Chen wanted to take me as a disciple, but he had to give up because of my surname."

Ye Fengtian said somewhat helplessly.

Just because of the Ye surname, they cannot undergo higher-level cultivation.

Ye Qingtian never expected that the Ye Family, once an Earth-level Sect, not only to be expelled but also for its members to be unable to enter the Hidden Sect now?

What kind of rule is that?

"Hmph, given the chance, I shall see who set such a rule?"

A glint of coldness flashed in Ye Qingtian’s eyes.

"Young Master Ye, though you are so strong that I cannot fathom it, today, witnessing these Hidden Sect sects, I think you will also be amazed."

Ye Fengtian couldn’t help but say.

"Don’t let me be too disappointed."

Ye Qingtian said indifferently.

Meanwhile, on the other side of this mountain in the forest, a group of young people was walking.

In total, four men and two women, the two young women were ethereal in appearance, namely Li Mozhu and Li Mobai, both disciples of Ren Xuyin from Northern Tower.

The two tall and slender men were Jian Long and Dao Hu, disciples of Qing Haichao from Western Tower, while the two young men in Taoist robes, Fu Xuanjun and Bai Chitian, were disciples of Guo Zhenxuan from Southern Tower.

The six had gone to Wolf Valley for training a year ago, and now, upon receiving a secret order, they were returning to Wangyue Pavilion.

"Ah! This time we finally broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm. It wasn’t easy!"

Confidence beamed from their faces as they had narrowly escaped life and death during this training.

Nonetheless, it brought them great benefits, allowing them to successfully break through to the Martial Emperor Realm.

This meant Wangyue Pavilion gained six Martial Emperors at once.

Now, brimming with vigor, they could already imagine their fellow disciples’ envy and the pride of their masters and elders upon returning to Wangyue Pavilion.

It felt like reaching the pinnacle of life!

"Junior Sisters, with your talents and cultivation now, you are catching up with Senior Sister Fang. You would be nurtured as Inner Sect disciples even in the Hidden Sect!"

The four men looked at their two junior sisters with admiration.

These two girls, along with Fang Lingfei and Qing Ling under Tian Aozi, were the four goddesses of Wangyue Pavilion, with countless admirers.

"Huh? Someone’s there?"

Fu Xuanjun suddenly grew alert.

Immediately, the six accelerated towards the mountaintop.

In the distance, an off-road vehicle came into view.

"Could it be someone from Medicine King Valley already arrived?"

Dao Hu asked warily.

"Regardless if they are or not, we must stop them!"

Jian Long said coldly.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a rock came hurtling at lightning speed, and Ye Fengtian, being alert, swerved the steering wheel sharply to avoid it.

"Boom!"

The rock crashed into a thick tree, snapping it instantly.

When they looked again, the six disciples from Wangyue Pavilion had already blocked the path.

"Stop! Who’s there?"

Jian Long shouted, his presence like a sharp sword, exuding a killing aura all around.

"Yes, are you scouts sent by Medicine King Valley?"

Dao Hu questioned harshly.

"It’s me! Ye Fengtian! I’ve met you before!"

Ye Fengtian got out of the car and couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Ah, so it’s Ye Fengtian of the Five Dragons of Huaxia! I apologize for my rudeness!"

The leading Jian Long and Dao Hu clasped their hands in respect, retracting their imposing aura.

However, their faces were still full of pride, or rather, brimming with a fighting spirit.

During Ye Fengtian’s time cultivating at Wangyue Pavilion, they had interacted, and everyone had said he was a peerless genius.

Now, they had the qualification to converse with Ye Fengtian!

In the future, they might even surpass him!

"Oh, it’s Senior Brother Ye!"

Li Mozhu and the others greeted as well.

"Senior Brother Ye, are you also here to resolve the Wangyue Pavilion crisis this time?"

Li Mozhu asked.

"Yes, that’s exactly the purpose."

Ye Fengtian nodded.

"And who is in the car?"

Fu Xuanjun noticed Ye Qingtian in the vehicle and couldn’t help but ask.
