Chapter 535: 0536 He’s alive! (Third Release)

It blew up!

The news that Ye Qiu was alive spread, and the entire martial arts world was nearly boiling over!

What this meant, no one was unclear.

A True Qi realm martial artist had faced off against a legendary realm powerhouse and not only survived but lived, what did this imply? It was highly probable that Ye Qiu had killed a legendary warrior.

This shocking piece of news left everyone in the martial arts community astonished.

To fight across ranks, and to have succeeded at that, was nothing short of a defiance of the heavens!

Which martial artist does not wish to fight above their rank? Such an event had not blessed the martial arts world in a hundred years, and now, one name had realized this miracle.

The title of the strongest True Qi martial artist spread with Ye Qiu’s name!

"God, I simply can’t believe it. There truly are geniuses in this world capable of fighting across ranks. True Qi realm and legendary realm, they’re worlds apart! Ye Qiu is truly unrivaled in this world. All the prestige of the Ten Owls has been completely overshadowed by this single battle," someone exclaimed.

"Don’t say you younglings haven’t seen it, even this old-timer, despite my years in the martial arts world, has never witnessed someone fighting across ranks for the first time, especially at the high levels of the True Qi and legendary realms. The heavens truly favor our Huaxia martial arts community, to have produced such a martial arts prodigy," an unkempt elder said, patting the young martial artist who had spoken earlier.

"Old senior, what’s this on your hand? It got on me," the young person said, brushing off his shoulder where a string of sparkling, translucent mucus had stuck to his clothes, frowning as he spoke.

"Eh... Young man, my apologies. This old man has been having a cold recently, and my nose has been very itchy, so..."

The young man upon hearing this, quickly ran to the side and started vomiting!

...

Shangguan Mingyue had been staying at home without going out these past few days, locking herself in her room, leaving even the Shangguan family patriarch puzzled about what had gotten into his little daughter.

The only person in the Shangguan family who might vaguely guess the reason was probably Shangguan Dao.

"Should I tell her the news that Ye Qiu is still alive?" Shangguan Dao was troubled because he actually didn’t want to tell Shangguan Mingyue. He had mixed feelings about Ye Qiu and always felt that his cousin Guan Mingyue seemed to have different feelings for Ye Qiu. And then there was his sister Shangguan Hong who also seemed to have a bit of a romantic notion towards Ye Qiu. Both women of the Shangguan family seemed to have taken a liking to the man, which really made Shangguan Dao uncomfortable.

But keeping it from Shangguan Mingyue made her remain in a prolonged bad state, eventually Shangguan Dao sighed, resolved that he could not bear to see Shangguan Mingyue continually sullen.

When Shangguan Dao finally told Shangguan Mingyue the news that Ye Qiu was still alive, her eyes suddenly brightened with a hint of sparkle.

Her whole demeanor seemed much more spirited, no longer as listless as before.

"I’m not lying to you, someone saw with their own eyes that Ye Qiu was still alive," Shangguan Dao affirmed.

"That’s wonderful," Shangguan Mingyue cheered, "I just knew he wouldn’t die."

Shangguan Dao internally sighed with worry, looking at Shangguan Mingyue who was no longer the impeccably outstanding woman of the Shangguan family, but rather showed a young daughter’s demeanor now.

"This Ye Qiu..." Shangguan Dao truly felt the urge to give Ye Qiu a good beating.

As the news of Ye Qiu’s survival spread throughout the martial arts world, it naturally caused great excitement within the Dragon Group as well, because Ye Qiu was a member. He was the pride and object of admiration in the hearts of many Dragon Group members. Many members had been downcast due to rumors of Ye Qiu’s death, but at this moment, everyone was elated.

"You’re still alive..." Lin Wurou said softly within the Dragon Group base.

Mu Zhige showed a look of joy: "You always bring miraculous surprises to others, and this time is no exception."

"Ye Qiu, a master indeed, is truly a formidable person," Li Xiaohu also sighed.

Seeing the joy on the faces of the Dragon Group members, the old provocateur and Mei Huiling exchanged knowing smiles. In fact, they had known for some time that Ye Qiu was still alive but had not revealed it. Now that Ye Qiu had made his presence known in the martial arts world, both of them knew that the young man no longer intended to feign death.

Who was he planning to deal with?

The old provocateur and Mei Huiling speculated that the statement Ye Qiu released was not simple; it seemed like a declaration of war. Could it be that another master was about to emerge?

The two secretly felt alarmed and couldn’t help worrying for Ye Qiu.

"Rest assured, he defeated Gu Sanbaiyi before; Ye Qiu’s strength has now surpassed ours. We should trust him; this kid won’t fight battles he’s not confident in winning," Mei Huiling said, hoping the old provocateur would take her words to heart.

"Yes, as this old bag of bones, having taught such an outstanding disciple like Ye Qiu, I would die with no regrets. I only hope this kid can go farther and farther on the martial path. After all, I am merely the one who led him onto this path. As for how far he can go, there’s very little I can help him with now!" the old provocateur exclaimed with a sigh.

Ever since Ye Qiu defeated Gu Sanbaiyi, the old provocateur felt Ye Qiu had grown up a lot suddenly and didn’t need him as a protective big tree anymore because Ye Qiu had become a towering tree on his own.

A mixture of wistfulness and a profound sense of achievement constantly haunted the old provocateur’s heart.

...

The Yamato Group.

"Hall Master, Targets One and Three have both failed to be captured," reported a man from the Aoguchi Group.

"Useless! What did Soo Otono say? Wasn’t it supposed to be an easy grab? Where is he now?" Sato Ejino was somewhat angry.

"Hall Master, Mr. Soo was taken away by someone. It was the appearance of that person that caused Mr. Soo’s mission to fail. As for the failure to capture Target Three, unexpectedly, there was a master by their side with firearms, forcing us to retreat temporarily."

"So you’re saying we only caught one?" Sato Ejino held back his anger.

"Yes, Hall Master."

"One is enough to lure out that Ye Qiu. Once he shows up, I can avenge my son," Sato Ejino said viciously.

Half an hour later, the door to Sato Ejino’s room was knocked on, and a subordinate from the Aoguchi Group hurried in.

"Hall Master, Ye Qiu has shown up. He has declared to the martial arts world that he is at the Goddess Villa. Those who want to deal with him can directly come find him," the man reported.

"Hmm? He actually showed up voluntarily?" Sato Ejino was slightly surprised and somewhat taken aback.

"That’s even better. Since he has revealed himself, it will be easier to handle. Send a message first. If he wants his friend Chu Yao’s life to be spared, he must come to the Yamato Group with the Kusanagi Sword to apologize. Otherwise, Chu Yao dies!" Sato Ejino instructed.

"Understood, I will take care of it immediately," the man replied and left.

Sato Ejino showed a look of triumph. With Ye Qiu’s weakness in his hands, he would not remain indifferent. If Ye Qiu dared to ignore him, he would let him see a very tragic female corpse.

"Since the master himself has appeared, it’s time to call on the master. To deal with this Ye Qiu, we will need his help to suppress him," Sato Ejino stood up and walked towards another room.
