The Most Powerful Overlord

Chapter 421: Japan’s Longevity Family

At this moment, Da Huang whimpered twice and accidentally knocked over a plate.

"You stupid dog, you dare to break our plate! See if I won’t skin you alive!"

A loud curse broke out, and a restaurant waiter came over with a frown.

But Ye Qingtian continued to pour his own drink, drinking sake alone.

As if he had already forgotten the presence of Da Huang and Tai Xian’er.

His eyes showed a hint of complexity, with some inexplicable emotions stirring within.

Pain, confusion, sadness, all alternating repeatedly!

Tai Xian’er sat across from him, watching him, and made a silencing gesture to the restaurant waiter.

Only then did the restaurant waiter huff coldly and stop talking.

"What is going on? Is it because of this Spiritual Jade? Why do I see so many unfamiliar scenes, yet feel as if they are happening to me?"

Ye Qingtian was puzzled in his heart.

Seeing Ye Qingtian like this, suddenly, some past events also surged in Tai Xian’er’s mind!

She poured herself a cup.

Drank!

Poured another cup and drank again!

One cup after another!

The entire restaurant seemed to suddenly quiet down.

The two of them sat silently, each drinking quietly.

The thoughts that emerged in their minds were complex and diverse!

"Tell me, what secret does this Spiritual Jade hold?" Ye Qingtian suddenly took out the Spiritual Jade and asked Tai Xian’er.

"Then first tell me your name." Tai Xian’er said.

"Woman, don’t make demands of me, or face the consequences." Ye Qingtian’s eyes instantly turned cold.

Tai Xian’er felt a chill from her feet straight into her head, suddenly afraid.

"This... is the treasure of our Royal Family. Grandfather said that years ago, when Hai City was attacked by a mysterious force, our ancestors invited a Divine Beast to help. The Divine Beast stepped on a Somersault Cloud, displaying great power."

"When it left, it gave us this jade and warned us that if any outsider recognized the Spiritual Jade, we should hand it over to them."

Tai Xian’er dared not hide anything.

Mysterious force?

Divine Beast?

Ye Qingtian furrowed his brows. Since he became aware, he had sensed a mysterious force always present, or perhaps what they were doing seemed to have some connection to him.

And the Divine Beast?

Ye Qingtian suddenly looked at Da Huang!

Could it be that the Divine Beast that saved Hai City was it?

"Does Da Huang resemble the dog that saved your Royal Family?" Ye Qingtian asked again.

"To be honest, it really does. Grandfather said obtaining Da Huang could help our Tai Family rise again, returning to the Hidden Sect Tai Family, saving us from being bullied by Prison Lord Qin, which is why I set my sights on Da Huang."

Tai Xian’er truthfully said.

"But Da Huang is just an ordinary dog, not even considered a Demon Beast, let alone a Divine Beast. Even if given to you, it would just waste your food."

Ye Qingtian said lightly.

"Maybe it is a descendant of that Divine Beast. I believe in Grandfather’s judgment; he can’t be wrong." Tai Xian’er said seriously.

"Did your Tai Family once belong to the Hidden Sect Realm?" Ye Qingtian asked.

"Yes, that was a thousand years ago. Back then, the Tai Family of Hai City was an Earth-level Sect Race in the Hidden Sect Realm. Later, for some reason, our branch was expelled."

"The Tai Race has been striving for a thousand years but still cannot gain recognition from the Hidden Sect Tai Family."

At this point, Tai Xian’er sighed.

"Moreover, recently a Prison Lord Qin suddenly came to Hai City. He wants us, the Tai Family, to be his slaves, giving us a month. If we don’t agree, our Tai Family will disappear from Hai City."

As Tai Xian’er spoke, Ye Qingtian continued drinking.

The sake in the wine pot became less and less, yet Ye Qingtian remained unfazed no matter how much he drank!

He continued in deep thought, drinking cup after cup without any feeling!

However, Tai Xian’er became drunk!

"Who is this Prison Lord Qin?" Ye Qingtian asked.

"Shh! Don’t speak ill of him. If his subordinates hear, we’ll all be dead!"

Tai Xian’er hurriedly made a silencing gesture.

"Sounds like a formidable person, no?" Ye Qingtian asked while drinking.

A person who can make the Hai City Royal Family bow down is not simple!

"Not just formidable; he’s terrifying. He’s defeated most of the top experts on the War God List and plans to challenge Ye Xiaoyao and the top three on the War God List next."

Tai Xian’er whispered.

"Heh, overestimating himself. Da Huang, I’ve decided to make that Prison Lord Qin your servant." Ye Qingtian said lightly.

Tai Xian’er thought Ye Qingtian had drunk too much and didn’t say much more.

The two and the dog finished their meal and went to the counter to settle the bill.

"Sir, a total of ten thousand." The waiter said with a smile.

"Ten thousand?" Ye Qingtian frowned.

"Yes, sir." The waiter said.

Ye Qingtian ordered the cheapest dishes and the cheapest wine, which should cost only a couple of hundred Asian coins.

"Let me see the bill." Ye Qingtian said lightly.

"What bill do you want to see? The drinks cost little, but your dog broke one of our plates, which is worth over nine thousand!"

The waiter looked at him with disdain and contempt.

"The plate is worth over nine thousand? Is it made of jade?" Ye Qingtian asked.

"Of course not!"

"Call your boss." Ye Qingtian said calmly.

"Ha, if I call the boss, he’ll stew your dog for an extra hundred thousand!"

The waiter said with a cold face.

"Stew my dog? And an extra hundred thousand? Sure, I also want to see how he stews my dog and makes me pay that much." Ye Qingtian said leisurely.

Tai Xian’er frowned; she knew this shop well. Her Royal Guard had a stake in it, but it was small.

The major shareholder was the Longevity Family from Japan, a giant able to rival those super Sects in the Hidden Sect Realm.

They couldn’t be provoked!

At this moment, the waiter snorted coldly and called the boss.

The boss was a native Japanese, sporting a mustache, wearing a kimono from Japan, always sporting a smiling façade.

This smile was a trap hidden in laughter!

"What’s going on?" The boss’s Asian language was well-spoken.

"Boss, this punk’s dog broke our plate." The waiter pointed at Ye Qingtian and said.

"Is that so?" The boss asked Ye Qingtian.

"Yes." Ye Qingtian answered lightly.

"Then what’s the wait, pay up." The boss said straightforwardly.

"How much?" Ye Qingtian asked.

"A hundred thousand! And leave your dog." The boss said.

"Isn’t that asking too little?" Ye Qingtian asked in a soft tone.

The boss was slightly taken aback, looked at Ye Qingtian, appearing weak and powerless.

"Certainly not, two hundred thousand!" The Japanese boss raised the stakes further!

"Oh, two hundred thousand and you want to stew my dog." Ye Qingtian chuckled.

"Sir, I’ll pay for this." Tai Xian’er said.

"Woman, is this your place to butt in?" Ye Qingtian shot her a cold glance, and Tai Xian’er immediately fell silent.
