Chapter 350, The Double Crowned Champion Huang Yutian

Translator: Silavin

 

The Huang Family was the first to make a move because, compared to the Loong Family, the Huang Family had greater power and two more Fourth Profession Players.

 

Among them, they even had a Level 99 Player who could rival the Ye Family’s Patriarch!

 

The Huang Family directly disrupted the peaceful harmony between the three Ancient Noble Families in the Western Border. Before the seventh day of mourning for the Ye Family Patriarch had passed, they went to cause trouble at the Ye Family Residence, claiming that the ownership rights of various resources in the Western Border were disputed and needed redistribution.

 

At that time, Ye Wuxian was handling her Patriarch’s funeral. Encountering such a situation naturally displeased her, and both sides came to blows.

 

But, Ye Wuxian was defeated.

 

The Huang Family did not even need to deploy their Level 99 Elder; Huang Yutian alone was able to suppress Ye Wuxian.

 

Speaking of Huang Yutian, he was absolutely an exceptional figure. Like Loong Xing, he had also represented Dragon Country in the National Trial.

 

Moreover, when he first participated, like Lu Fan, he was only seventeen years old. Just one year after his First Profession Change. Yet, he had achieved first place.

 

In his second National Trial as Dragon Country’s representative, when the Twenty-Three Country Alliance representatives saw him, twelve countries immediately announced their withdrawal, directly conceding twenty portions of their resources.

 

That year, he again achieved first place with absolute overwhelming strength.

 

One could see how powerful Huang Yutian was from this.

 

After all, he was the first person in history to be a Double Crowned Champion in the National Trial.

 

He has now also achieved his Fourth Profession Change, and though he was only about five years older than Loong Xing, he has already reached Level 97!

 

It was not just that his Level was high. His talent and strength were all cream of the crop.

 

The Huang Family Elder would spar with him periodically, praising Huang Yutian’s strength endlessly. He had publicly declared that once Huang Yutian reached Level 98, his strength would definitely surpass his own.

 

Though it seemed like Levels 98 and 99 differed by just one Level, the gap between them was like an insurmountable chasm.

 

After one’s’ Fourth Profession Change, defeating someone of a Higher Level was extremely difficult. After all, after the Fourth Profession Change, Profession Characteristics were developed to their very limit. There was no such thing as a weak Profession anymore.

 

Every Profession had extremely strong Combat Power of their own unique quality. Unless there were severe restrictions due to the Profession, Level and Equipment were basically the only standards to measure a Player’s strength at that point.

 

Furthermore, the Huang Family Elder was a top expert who had been stuck at Level 99 for many years, with years of accumulated Hidden Force. If Huang Yutian could truly defeat him at Level 98, it would show this man’s potential was terrifyingly extreme.

 

Ye Wuxian was indeed the pride of the Ye Family, but in terms of Level, she was only 96, not reaching Huang Yutian’s Level.

 

In terms of talent, Huang Yutian was among the top geniuses, so it was normal for Ye Wuxian to be defeated.

 

The internal injuries on Ye Wuxian’s body were from that time.

 

Because of Ye Wuxian’s defeat, the Huang Family became even more unrestrained, repeatedly finding various reasons to consume the Ye Family’s assets, forcefully swallowing about 60% of the resources controlled by the Ye Family!

 

Even then, the Huang Family was not satisfied. After finding some resource ownership issues, they would go to the Ye Family and use forceful means to compel the Ye Family to sign over the resources.

 

Ye Wuxian was powerless to resist, and later thought about whether she could seek help from the Loong Family.

 

Because at this time, the Loong Family had not shown too much greed.

 

Moreover, the Loong Family and Ye Family had deep historical connections.

 

Back then, the Ye Family Patriarch and the Loong Family Elder were close friends.

 

During a period when the Loong Family was declining, it was the Ye Family who gave up ten Dungeon Instances and ten Secret Realms, allowing the Loong Family to develop two Fourth Profession Players and revive the Loong Family.

 

The Ye Family had always been helpful to the Loong Family, so now that the Ye Family was in trouble, Ye Wuxian thought the Loong Family would not stand idly by.

 

Once the Loong Family spoke up, even though the Huang Family was strong, they should not dare to bully the Ye Family so overly.

 

Unfortunately, Ye Wuxian had misjudged human nature.

 

Actually, when the Huang Family swallowed so many of the Ye Family’s resources, the Loong Family had already harbored greedy thoughts. Therefore, after Ye Wuxian made contact with the Loong Family, she only got one response – the Loong and Ye Families were on good terms, and seeing such a situation, the Loong Family indeed could not stand idle.

 

However, for the Loong Family to intervene in such matters, they needed a pretext.

 

To simply put it, if Ye Wuxian brought the Ye Family to merge with their Loong Family, becoming their Subordinate Family, then the Huang Family would not dare to touch the Ye Family’s resources.

 

As for the Ye Family’s resources, they could be mixed with the Loong Family’s resources for both Families to use.

 

These words sounded righteous but were actually just an attempt to devour the Ye Family whole.

 

Ye Wuxian naturally refused.

 

However, the Loong Family was persistent, frequently visiting to persuade the Ye Family to submit.

 

The Ye Family was caught between two fires. On one side was the Huang Family, constantly using force to pressure over their resources. On the other side was the Loong Family, constantly throwing out veiled threats.

 

The two Families were clearly working together, intended to divide the Ye Family between them.

 

Previously, Ye Wuxian had been extremely troubled by these matters. During that time, she heard that Lu Fan had gotten into trouble in Extremistis Country.

 

After thinking about how to save him, Ye Wuxian remembered that the three Families had a gentlemen’s agreement. As Ancient Noble Families of the Western Border, if any disputes arose, any Family could declare a truce for two months.

 

She directly exercised this right, freezing all Ye Family resources, and went alone to Extremistis Country, planning to rescue Lu Fan first.

 

During these past few days, Ye Wuxian had been using all her connections to seek help for her Family’s current conundrum.

 

Unfortunately, the status and prestige of the Ancient Noble Families was far too frightening for those who knew of their existence. Who would be willing to offend two Ancient Noble Families at this time just to help the struggling Ye Family? They might end up being eliminated by the two Ancient Noble Families instead!

 

Lu Fan was confused about this. He believes the Northern Marquis, Tu Jing, should have the ability to intervene. If Tu Jing spoke up to protect the Ye Family, surely the two Families would stop taking advantage of the Ye Family.

 

However, Ye Wuxian explained that if Tu Jing could speak up, he would certainly try to protect the Ye Family.

 

Unfortunately, Tu Jing held the position of Northern Marquis and was involved in too many matters. He could not use his authority for private matters.

 

Thus, Tu Jing could not intervene in the affairs between the Ancient Noble Families. Not when both the Loong Family and Huang Family had participated in the National Trial, and made contributions to the country. Due to these factors, Tu Jing was unable to put pressure on these two Ancient Noble Families.

 

At most, Tu Jing could ensure Ye Wuxian’s personal safety.

 

However, Ye Wuxian did not want to let everything accumulated by the Ye Family for generations be easily divided between the Loong and Huang Families.

 

If the Ye Family was lost in her hands, she would be the eternal sinner of her Family. She would not be able to face her Ancestors at that point.

 

But, even though she was unwilling, what could she do?

 

She had already used all possible connections to seek help, but if she really could not find anyone willing to help…

 

She could only wait until a month later and disband the entire Ye Family.

 

As for whether those resources would go to the Huang Family or Loong Family, that was no longer her concern.

 

She could only smile bitterly as she watched these two mad Dogs fight over the Ye Family’s resources, nothing more.
