The Most Powerful Overlord
Chapter 556: Bai Suyi’s Ordeal
"Mr. Ye, I wonder when you might have some time. I’d like to invite you to a meal to discuss the matter of the Mud Ball."
Elder Yao said cautiously.
Ye Qingtian nodded, realizing this old man had come for this reason.
"Let’s do it in a couple of days." Ye Qingtian dismissed him directly.
Elder Yao dared not slack in any way and quickly left with Yao Bing and Divine Wolf.
Wang Zhenfeng, unwilling to embarrass himself, bit his lip and could only leave as well.
"Ye Qingtian, sometimes I really can’t see through you." You Ruo sighed inwardly.
"You don’t need to see through me; just remember to follow my lead." Ye Qingtian said indifferently.
You Ruo frowned, thinking, "I am an instructor at Celestial Martial Academy, follow your lead? Are you kidding?"
However, she didn’t say anything, and the two finished their meal and left separately.
Just as they stepped out of the restaurant, Bai Suyi walked over.
"Qingtian, I... have something to discuss with you, is that okay?" Bai Suyi said somewhat embarrassed.
"Feel free to speak." Ye Qingtian replied.
"I managed to get into Celestial Martial Academy all thanks to your help. But you know, coming from the Mortal World, I hardly know anything about Martial Arts Dao. The examination is not far off, and I’m afraid of being eliminated."
Bai Suyi seemed a bit sorrowful.
Once the treasured jewel of the Bai Family, the number one beauty of Jin City, she now lacked the confidence she once had at Celestial Martial Academy.
"Suyi, in my life, I’ve seen countless beauties, but only you and Qianxiao have found a place in my heart, only you and she can call me Qingtian."
"Since you’ve set your heart on stepping into the Martial Arts Dao, tell me of any difficulties without hesitation."
"The Bai Family has gone through many struggles, and your mind is not what it once was. I know you want to grow stronger, and I know you’re proud and reluctant to ask for help."
"But in the path of Martial Arts Dao, solely relying on your own exploration won’t do. Martial Arts Dao has existed for tens of thousands of years; we need to learn the essence of our predecessors."
"Only by learning from their experiences can you become invincible in the Martial Arts Dao."
Ye Qingtian advised earnestly.
For the first time in his life, Ye Qingtian spoke so much to a woman.
Not even to his girlfriend Hua Qianxiao had he spoken this much.
Not for any other reason, but because Bai Suyi’s persistence touched him.
She left the Mortal World and came to the Hidden Sect alone, participated in the Divine Artifact Conference independently, and later actively sought Ye Qingtian to join Celestial Martial Academy.
It’s important to note Bai Suyi had no previous interaction with Martial Arts Dao.
But for the sake of her family, she has worked tirelessly, never giving up.
This spirit affected Ye Qingtian.
And made him understand this woman was extraordinary.
Perhaps now she seems quite ordinary, but someday she will stand out, surpassing all.
Ye Qingtian was not wrong. The future achievements of Bai Suyi astonished both the Mortal World and the Hidden Sect.
Even the Cultivation Realm applauded.
Because she became the only genius to emerge from the Mortal World, she earned the respect as a Martial Immortal.
Yet, that was something that happened much later.
At this moment, Bai Suyi looked at Ye Qingtian and said seriously, "Qingtian, you are right. I used to care too much about appearances; from now on, I’ll listen to everything you say."
Ye Qingtian nodded.
In the Mortal World, the girl initially detested him so much.
She hadn’t even looked at him directly.
But now? She trusted him immensely.
Thinking about it all felt like a fleeting moment.
"For now, just absorb everything Instructor You Ruo teaches. In a year, your cultivation will be remarkable."
Ye Qingtian said indifferently.
Instructor You Ruo was indeed an expert in teaching; if one could digest her teachings, one could surely establish themselves in Celestial Martial Academy.
Upon hearing this, Bai Suyi nodded.
"Qingtian, who exactly are you? When I first met you in the Mortal World, I already felt you were different. Later, your reputation soared there, even making it to the rankings."
"And later defeating the Five Dragons of Huaxia..."
"Sometimes, I really wonder just how formidable your strength is."
Bai Suyi pondered.
Ye Qingtian did not answer, instead looked into the distance and said indifferently, "To you, I may seem invincible, but I still haven’t mastered the world. Once I truly master it, I will tell you just how strong I am."
Bai Suyi nodded, asked Ye Qingtian a few more questions, and happily headed towards her dormitory.
Meanwhile, Elder Yao was reprimanding Yao Bing.
"Bingbing, you truly escaped with your life because Mr. Ye showed mercy. Even our Princess Yao’er respects him; do you think your discontent matters?"
Elder Yao sighed.
"How could such an exalted Princess Yao’Er respect him?" Yao Bing asked puzzled.
"Mr. Ye used a Mud Ball to transform Princess Yao’Er’s Demon Phoenix into a Star Level Demon Beast; isn’t that enough?"
Elder Yao said.
What!
Yao Bing was stunned.
Turning a mere Demon Beast into a Star Level Demon Beast; Yao Bing knew the difficulty behind it.
And understood the effort Princess Yao’Er put into trying to achieve this transformation for the Demon Phoenix.
Yet Ye Qingtian solved it all with just a single Mud Ball!
After hearing this, Yao Bing’s respect for Ye Qingtian grew even more.
Ye Qingtian seemed very youthful, an age easy for many to overlook, yet he possessed such astonishing skills.
Even Yao Bing’s master could not match him.
Such a person is bound for extraordinary accomplishments in the future.
At ten p.m., Ye Qingtian went to Aishike Restaurant for a meal, ready to go home and rest.
Yao Bing rushed in with several others.
"Mr. Ye!"
Yao Bing and the others bowed, each of them showing immense respect for Ye Qingtian.
However, Ye Qingtian didn’t care.
He casually asked, "What’s the matter?"
"Mr. Ye, I just got news from the King Demon Sect. That reckless Divine Wolf... has abducted Miss Bai Suyi!"
Yao Bing said, gritting her teeth.
She detested those who use such methods most.
Moreover, Divine Wolf was from the same sect as her!
Ye Qingtian stood up, asked, "Do you know where he is?"
"Yes, Divine Wolf took Miss Suyi and tied her up in the forest behind Celestial Martial Academy."
Yao Bing replied.
Ye Qingtian wasted no time and headed straight for the forest.
Meanwhile, at the Ancient Forest behind Celestial Martial Academy.
In a clearing, brightly lit, dozens of large men wielding weapons glared viciously at Bai Suyi hanging from a tree.
The forest clearing echoed with wanton laughter.
"Is this woman beautiful?" Divine Wolf asked.
"Beautiful!" They answered in unison, eyes filled with greed.
"Do you want to have your way with her?" Divine Wolf continued to ask.
"Want!" Of course, they wouldn’t pass up the opportunity.
