This "Lord Dao" is precisely Fu Tiandao.
Fu Tiandao’s eyes slightly narrowed. Earlier, he hadn’t looked closely, assuming it was just a reckless young man, but once he saw Ye Qingfeng’s face clearly, cold sweat imdiately dripped down his forehead.
"How could it be him?"
Fu Tiandao shouted wildly in his heart. The next mont, he stepped forward quickly and respectfully bowed towards Ye Qingfeng.
"Fu Tiandao of the Hong Fist Sect greets the War God!"
In an instant, the entire scene fell silent.
Except for Fu Feilong, no one knew what was happening. In their eyes, Lord Dao, who stood above even the elite families of Yanjing, was bowing to a young man. How was this possible?
Zhong Chuhao and the Family Heads of the five families nearly had their eyes pop out. This imnse change left all of them dazed and confused.
Zhong Xiaoqiong’s heart surged as she looked to Fu Feilong for an explanation, but he said nothing, only trembling in place.
"Oh, heavens!"
Liu Xu’s heart trembled as she exclaid, "Big sister, what is Xiao Feng’s identity, for even Lord Dao to show him such respect?"
Liu i shook her head, equally bewildered. In the center, Duan Yu was completely stunned.
Duan Su and his two companions were expressionless, unable to speak.
The focus returned to Ye Qingfeng, who did not rise in response to Fu Tiandao’s salute, but simply spoke indifferently.
"Are you here to support the Five Major Families?"
Inwardly, Fu Tiandao bitterly smiled. His original intent was indeed to aid the Five Major Families, but who could have foreseen encountering this nace?
That day, from afar, he had watched the duel between the two supre masters, Ye Qingfeng and Long Yuntian, at West Lake.
The battle was fierce enough to scorch the sky and overturn the river. Long Yuntian’s deadly moves erged one after another, but in the end, he was obliterated by Ye Qingfeng’s single move, "Four Seasons Cycle."
He considered himself not much different from Long Yuntian, let alone compared to Ye Jiujie, who had effortlessly slain Long Yuntian.
Moreover, Fu Feilong had inford him upon returning from a courier mission that just days earlier, Ye Jiujie had also vanquished Cold Smiling Buddha, the once-invincible number one on Hua Xia Hidden Dragon List, ruler only beneath the War Emperor, forty years ago.
Either Long Yuntian or Cold Smiling Buddha would be insurmountable for him, yet Ye Qingfeng effortlessly eliminated them. How would he dare act rashly?
Upon hearing Ye Qingfeng’s question, he repeatedly shook his head, "With the War God here, I dare not interfere!"
"Wow!"
The people around were overwheld hearing Fu Tiandao’s response.
The revered Lord Dao from the Northern Base, so high and mighty, actually chose humility in front of a youth?
Many pinched themselves to determine if they were dreaming.
"Young Master Feilong, this..."
Zhong Chuhao looked at Fu Feilong, at a loss.
It took Fu Feilong great effort to overco his fear, then he spoke deeply, "You truly have no regard for your lives, to dare provoke him!"
Hearing this, Zhong Chuhao’s heart sank instantly, and the four kneeling Family Heads were completely numb, staring blankly ahead.
Fu Tiandao’s submission surprised all, but he showed no sign of sha, standing quietly aside.
Facing the unparalleled Ye Jiujie, he believed few dared face him head-on, and even fewer would include him.
Ye Qingfeng remained seated, glancing at Fu Tiandao, saying, "Since you have so connection with them, the matter becos much simpler!"
He stood up and pointed to each of the five Family Heads.
"Today, with Aunt Liu present, I do not wish to kill. Tell those few to follow the conditions I just gave. In two months, I want to see the Duan Family standing above the Five Major Families!"
After speaking, Ye Qingfeng walked past Fu Tiandao directly, approaching Liu i.
"Aunt Liu, the matter is settled. Didn’t you say earlier you wanted to visit grandpa and grandma tonight? Let’s go now!"
He spoke with a smile, his tone respectful and gentle, completely at odds with his previous arrogance.
"Ah?"
Liu i was bewildered, but she got up and left with Ye Qingfeng.
The two bade farewell to Liu Xu and Duan Yu, accompanied by nurous watching eyes as they left.
No one understood what was happening. Ye Qingfeng acted swiftly, trampling over the Family Heads, even making Fu Tiandao bow, yet now he left with only a word?
Once Ye Qingfeng was out of sight, Fu Tiandao exhaled deeply, as if having narrowly escaped the Ghost Gate.
He turned, facing the five Family Heads, his voice resounding like a bell.
"Rember, whatever instructions the War God gave you just now, complete them diligently, or don’t bla for being ruthless. In two months, the Duan Family’s status must eclipse your Five Major Families!"
This statent was a shocking blow, the five Family Heads incredulous as they looked at Fu Tiandao.
"Of course, you can choose not to comply, but don’t bla if your families are eradicated!"
Fu Tiandao’s words were powerful, sending chills through many hearts.
It turned out the young man’s threat to make the Five Major Families disappear was not a boast.
Yet they found it unimaginable, how this youth managed to force Fu Tiandao to retreat, even daring to claim he could annihilate the Five Major Families?
The five Family Heads were naturally filled with reluctance, with Zhong Chuhao stepping forward hesitantly, "Lord Dao, even if we fall, we wish to understand. Who exactly is that young man, to make even you..."
His question was also what everyone else was anxiously pondering, each one of them straining their ears, fearing to miss even the slightest detail.
Fu Tiandao lightly shook his head with a trace of ridicule.
"You Five Major Families truly have guts, daring to provoke him!"
"If he hadn’t decided to spare you, it’s uncertain if you’d still be alive tonight!"
Zhong Chuhao, stunned, asked, "Could he dare kill us?"
Fu Tiandao burst into laughter, "Kill you? Why wouldn’t he dare?"
"Not to ntion mortals like you, since he debuted, he’s slain so many Martial Arts Masters that both hands can’t count, killing is easier than slaughtering dogs."
Everyone seed to be listening to a myth, with Duan Su sitting dazedly, secretly horrified, "Could cousin really kill?"
Unbelieving, Zhong Chuhao pressed, "Lord Dao, who is that youth?"
"He is ’Mr. Ye’ of the Jiangnan and Jiangbei regions!"
Once said, the scene instantly erupted in chatter.
"Mr. Ye," this title is now famous not only in Jiangnan and Jiangbei but has spread to major cities like Yanjing and Jinling.
Invincible in Martial Arts, a young prodigy, and the majority shareholder behind Nine Tribulations Company, esteed and distinguished.
Zhong Xiaoqiong’s beautiful eyes flickered with surprise, she hadn’t expected the youth to be "Mr. Ye," and was overwheld with astonishnt.
Yet, people were puzzled, even if Ye Qingfeng was the legendary "Mr. Ye," that shouldn’t have made Fu Tiandao so fearful.
After all, this was Jinling.
Furthermore, Fu Tiandao possessed formidable strength, capable of splitting mountains and stones, as the Sect Leader of Hong Fist Sect—how could he fear a re youth?
