Chapter 111 A Mighty Warrior! A Peak Tournament of the Strongest Kings to be Held?
"What?!"
"This is Ye Han, the Lord of Chang'an?!"
Upon seeing this, the first reaction of everyone present was disbelief.
However, the next second, Ye Han unleashed a vast and powerful aura that swept over us.
"Hiss! Terrifying!!"
Upon sensing this, the group of titled Douluo, emperors, and sect leaders below instinctively felt a sense of awe and reverence!
It was as if what lay before them were not flesh and blood, but mountains overlooking all living beings, and the laws of heaven that governed the universe!
He truly deserves to be called the one who wields three supreme creation-level martial souls and possesses the number one power in the world!
"Gurgle~!"
Even Bibi Dong, a pinnacle figure on the continent, couldn't help but swallow hard.
This person's mere aura made the two Spider Emperor Martial Souls within her instinctively want to submit!
"So handsome!!"
Hu Liena's heart trembled wildly, and she blurted out instinctively.
The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the temporarily silent hall.
The four women, Qian Renxue, Jiangzhu, Bai Chenxiang, and Zhu Zhuyun, who were not of high age or seniority, shared the same sentiment.
"Nana, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Bibi Dong glared at Hu Liena.
Hu Liena then realized what was happening and quickly covered her delicate red lips.
She still couldn't help but steal glances at Ye Han, her eyes filled with infatuation.
She has always admired strong men and was attracted to good looks, and Ye Han was exactly her ideal type!
If she could be with a man like that, she'd do anything, even be a little...bitch...
Just as everyone was in shock, Ye Han's authoritative voice rang out once more:
"You all..."
"Now that you have seen the true form, why don't you bow down?!"
Ye Han's voice was not loud, but it seemed to have the power of a thousand pounds, echoing loudly within the Taiji Hall.
An invisible pressure descended as if it were a tangible force, causing everyone in the hall to tremble.
"I am Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, paying my respects to City Lord Ye!"
Ning Fengzhi was the first to stand up, bowing respectfully with his hands clasped in front of him.
Seeing this, the other forces had no choice but to suppress their arrogance and respectfully follow suit.
"That damned little beast!!!"
Finally, it was Bibi Dong who, though inwardly filled with resentment and anger, had no choice but to bow respectfully.
"Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall pays respects to City Lord Ye!"
Ye Han naturally noticed the dissatisfaction in her eyes, and asked with a half-smile:
"Your Holiness, I've heard that you have some reservations about the hospitality in Chang'an?"
The moment these words were spoken, the hall fell silent.
All eyes turned to Bibi Dong, almost with a hint of amusement at the prospect of a good show.
Bibi Dong was furious, but she could only suppress it and force a stiff smile onto her face:
"Lord Ye is joking. It was just a misunderstanding. Chang'an is a land chosen by heaven, and its hospitality is naturally impeccable."
Ye Han chuckled and deliberately said:
"The Pope has a good figure and looks, and speaks eloquently, but I wonder if his mind and the thoughts within it are just as good?"
The moment the words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.
These words are nothing short of a blatant provocation and insult!
After all, someone like Bibi Dong must have her own pride; how could she possibly tolerate outsiders treating her like this?!
Ye Han dared to publicly mock her "appearance" and "brain," implying he didn't take her seriously at all!
"You bastard!!!"
Bibi Dong gritted her teeth, but dared not show her anger; she could only curse inwardly.
The expressions of Jin E and Qing Luan also changed. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face to their Spirit Hall!
Only Hu Liena failed to grasp the underlying meaning, and murmured absentmindedly:
"Is he exaggerating the teacher's beauty? Does he like teachers?"
"That's true. After all, the teacher is the most outstanding woman in the world today. It's only natural for a hero to be paired with a beauty."
"If my teacher is with him, then wouldn't I have no chance... no, master and disciple... a threesome or something, isn't that possible?!"
The moment the thought crossed Hu Liena's mind, her cheeks burned so hot they could fry an egg.
But she didn't stop; instead, she went even further, imagining herself and her teacher serving Ye Han together...
Meanwhile, Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, was finding it increasingly difficult to calm her emotions towards Ye Han.
This young ruler of Chang'an exudes an air of mystery and untamed spirit that attracts her with every move.
It even made her heart flutter. She wanted to have such a man, not for fame or power, but just for that thrill!
It seemed crazy, but she couldn't resist; perhaps this was love at first sight...
Jiangzhu and Bai Chenxiang, who were present at the scene, shared the same thought at that moment.
Even Ling Yuan, who was over fifty but still a novice, couldn't help but have a thought.
Even Zhu Zhuyun, who already had a fiancé...
It's not her fault; Ye Han is just too outstanding, and it's just her instinct to act this way!
Their family bloodline is inherently dependent on others, and now that they have encountered someone stronger than the Dai family, they naturally find it difficult to control themselves!
Hehe~
Seeing that Bibi Dong dared not retaliate, Ye Han was satisfied and gave up, slightly raising his large hand:
"I heard that you all brought gifts for me? Please present them."
Ning Fengzhi was once again the first to respond, respectfully presenting his gift in person:
"I, from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, pay my respects to the sect's unique and inherited technique for controlling distraction!"
Yu Yuanzhen followed closely behind, also personally presenting a gift:
"I, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan, pay my respects to the sect's unique Dragon Transformation Secret Technique!"
The white crane also stepped forward personally to offer its prayers:
"The Min clan pays homage to the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng!"
Bibi Dong suppressed her anger and then personally stepped forward to offer her a bow:
"Papal Worship - Quasi-Divine Artifact: Pure Sky!"
Emperors Xue Ye and Dai Xiaotian also rose at the same time and offered their respects:
"I, a member of the Heavenly Dou Empire's royal family, pay homage to the Quasi-Divine Artifact, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover - Heart of the Ocean!"
"I, a member of the Star Luo Empire's royal family, pay homage to the founding and enduring military treatises, strategies for governing the country, and methods for establishing and passing down our nation!"
All the major powers were shocked by the generous gifts each other had offered.
But the most shocking thing was the obeisance from the Star Luo Empire's royal family.
To hand over such core imperial secrets is tantamount to surrendering the very lifeline of the empire! This is utter madness!
"Hehe, good intentions~"
Ye Han smiled faintly and accepted them all.
Seeing his satisfaction, hope gleamed in the eyes of each faction.
Bibi Dong, back in her seat, spoke first, her tone feigning respect:
"Lord Ye, our Spirit Hall sincerely wishes to form an alliance with Chang'an to jointly protect the peace of the continent. What do you say?"
Upon hearing this, the other forces immediately became restless and began to speak out:
"Lord Ye, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School..."
"Lord Ye, our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..."
"Lord Ye, the royal family of my Heavenly Dou Empire..."
"Lord Ye, the royal family of my Star Luo Empire..."
These major powers almost all wanted to form an alliance with Chang'an.
Of course, their alliance here refers more to an alliance of dependence and obsequiousness.
The most excited of them all was Bai He, who said, word by word:
"Lord Ye, our Min clan is willing to devote the entire clan's strength to Chang'an! Even if we have to serve as slaves, we will not hesitate to die!"
This cannot be blamed on him. After all, compared with other forces, the Min clan is insignificant and can only adopt the lowest posture.
Bai Chenxiang felt sorry for her grandfather, but she also knew that this was the only way for the Min clan to survive at present.
Only by doing everything possible to please the ruler of Chang'an can we have a glimmer of hope!
However, Ye Han just chuckled:
"The gifts you have offered today are merely a gesture of respect to me. If you wish to establish a relationship with Chang'an, that will come at a different price!"
The moment the words were spoken, everyone present froze on the spot, as if their breaths were being choked by an invisible force.
The hope that had just been ignited by Ye Han accepting the gift was now instantly frozen, as if doused with ice water.
"you!!"
Bibi Dong was so angry she almost exploded, wishing she could tear Ye Han to pieces.
She offered up such an incredibly precious and rare artifact, only to be granted a glimpse of it in return?!
Hehe~
At this moment, Ye Han smiled again and slowly revealed the idea he had prepared beforehand:
"However, I am determined to hold a martial arts competition in Chang'an City in two and a half days!"
"The tournament is called the 'Strongest King Peak Tournament.' The gifts you have presented can be used as 'entry tickets,' and you may send your strongest warriors to participate!"
