Chapter 721: It’s not that I’m too strong, it’s that you’re too weak.

Yue Jinchuan’s words struck Ye Xiu’s mind like a sledgehammer, leaving it ringing.

Ye Xiu had always believed that the three major Judicator Families had dispatched Purple Pupil Superpower Users to alter Long Tianba’s memory, aiming to find the person with a dragon-shaped pattern on their left arm.

But Yue Jinchuan’s words opened a new door for Ye Xiu. The dragon-shaped pattern on his left arm had been created by the three major Judicator Families themselves.

They had sent Purple Pupil Superpower Users to tamper with Long Tianba’s memory and compel him to search for the person with a dragon-shaped pattern on their left arm. The reason was simple: the three major Judicator Families could no longer find their ’test subjects’!

"What do you mean by ’newborn test subjects’?" Qin Qing asked.

Leng Yue, Dizang, An Dongye, Chloe, Ye Liuyun, Tang Bo, and Dong Fangbai were also curious. Especially Leng Yue, Dizang, and Chloe. They had a faint feeling they were about to learn the secret of their Young Master’s immense power.

"After you selected me as a test subject, what did you do to me as a newborn?" Ye Xiu asked.

"I injected a drop of blood into your veins," Yue Jinchuan said nonchalantly, sipping his tea as if discussing a completely ordinary matter.

"What blood?" Ye Xiu asked. "What was the purpose of the Judicator Families having you inject blood into me?"

"That’s my question!" Yue Jinchuan stated. "The reason I’m telling you all this is because I want to know what kind of blood I injected into you. What changes have you undergone in these past 26 years because of that drop of blood?"

Qin Qing, Leng Yue, Chloe, and Dizang stared at Ye Xiu in shock. They suspected that his unparalleled Medical Skills and invincible Power must have originated from that single drop of blood.

As for An Dongye, Tang Bo, Dong Fangbai, and Ye Liuyun, they were completely baffled by Yue Jinchuan’s words.

"So, you’ve been waiting here and patiently chatting with me just to pry into my secrets," Ye Xiu sneered.

Yue Jinchuan shrugged noncommittally, saying arrogantly, "You should have died the moment you first saw me. I graciously granted you a little more time to live. You should cherish it!"

His words placed him above Ye Xiu, adopting the proud posture of someone who held Ye Xiu’s life and death in his hands.

Qin Qing, Leng Yue, Dizang, and Chloe looked at Yue Jinchuan as if he were already dead, genuinely curious where this fool got the confidence to speak to Ye Xiu like that.

"Then I really must thank you," Ye Xiu said with a smile. "I can tell you what changes that drop of blood caused in me, but only if you answer three of my questions."

"I like people who know how to adapt to the situation," Yue Jinchuan praised, then laughed. "Ask away. I’ll tell you everything I know."

Ye Xiu thought for a moment before asking, "Was I the only test subject 26 years ago?"

"There were 48!" Yue Jinchuan said.

Qin Qing, Leng Yue, An Dongye, and Dizang were startled by the number. If Ye Xiu had truly become so powerful because of that single drop of blood, didn’t that mean there were 47 other individuals as powerful as their Young Master still out there in the world?

"Where are they?" Ye Xiu asked.

"I heard most of them died and only a few survived. As for where they are, I don’t know," Yue Jinchuan said.

Ye Xiu was secretly disappointed. He truly wanted to find those few survivors and ask them about the questions that had been sealed in his heart for so many years.

He continued asking, "Where are the three major Judicator Families located?"

Back then, Lin Xin had written down everything he knew about the Eternal Kingdom and the three major Judicator Families in a notebook. This included the Formation patterns for most of the islands, but not the whereabouts of the Judicator Families, nor the design of the Formation’s foundation on the Eternal Kingdom’s capital island.

If Ye Xiu had known all this, he wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to gather Martial Artists from all over the world to Biluo Island. He would have attacked the Judicator Families directly.

Ming Yue had indeed managed to visit the Golden Family. The problem was that the moment she set foot inside their territory, the tracker hidden in her phone lost its signal, and You Ming could no longer track her.

"I can’t answer that question, because I don’t know either," Yue Jinchuan admitted candidly. "The territory of the three major Judicator Families is extremely mysterious. I am not yet qualified to set foot on their lands."

Ye Xiu stared at Yue Jinchuan for over ten seconds and could see that the man wasn’t lying.

He continued, "You’ve seen the foundation stone of the Formation on the Eternal Kingdom’s capital island, haven’t you?"

"That’s the fourth question!" Yue Jinchuan reminded him.

"The last one," Ye Xiu stated.

Yue Jinchuan nodded. "The capital’s Formation has no foundation stone."

Ye Xiu felt a headache coming on. There were many types of Formations that didn’t require foundation stones, and all of them were invariably high-level. Even if he went there himself, he wouldn’t dare to try breaking such a Formation lightly. One careless mistake could get him trapped inside with no way out.

"Alright, your questions are finished. It’s time to answer mine, isn’t it?"

Yue Jinchuan’s eyes lit up, his gaze as scorching as the midday sun. He stared at Ye Xiu and asked, "For the past 26 years, what changes did that drop of blood cause in you?"

Qin Qing and the others all turned their gazes to Ye Xiu, equally curious about the answer.

"Guess," Ye Xiu replied with a cold smile.

Qin Qing and the others: "..."

Yue Jinchuan’s expression stiffened. "I expected you wouldn’t tell me. It seems I’ll have to capture you and torture the truth out of you after all."

As he spoke, Ye Xiu and the others suddenly noticed fog beginning to form around them. In the span of just three breaths, they were enveloped in a dense fog so thick they couldn’t see their own hands in front of their faces.

Qin Qing and the others immediately tensed up, ready for a fight.

Ye Xiu’s lips, however, curled into a disdainful smirk. He suddenly spun around and caught an incoming fist. Then, with a stomp of his foot, his qi blasted the fog away.

Only then did Qin Qing and the others see that Yue Jinchuan had somehow appeared behind Ye Xiu, frozen in the middle of a punch, his fist caught firmly in Ye Xiu’s grip.

"This... you... how did you do that?" Yue Jinchuan exclaimed.

He had used his Water System Totem to create the fog and launch a silent, stealthy attack. Yet, Ye Xiu had not only detected it but had also precisely caught his fist.

"These little tricks? I was tired of them back when I was still wearing split-crotch pants!"

Ye Xiu kicked Yue Jinchuan squarely in the chest. With a sickening series of CRACKS, Yue Jinchuan was sent flying backward like a cannonball, spraying a trail of blood.

"How can you be so strong?"

Yue Jinchuan’s previous air of superiority was gone, and he no longer looked down on Ye Xiu as if he were an insignificant ant. His face was filled with terror and disbelief.

They said Ye Xiu’s strength was merely that of a Sixth Realm War God! This intelligence is completely unreliable.

"It’s not that I’m too strong, it’s that you’re too weak!"

Ye Xiu walked up to Yue Jinchuan, raised his foot, and brought it stomping down toward his head.

Seeing this, Yue Jinchuan’s blood ran cold. If that foot came down, his head would surely be crushed.

He hastily yelled, "I have something to say!"

Ye Xiu’s foot stopped, the sole of his shoe just millimeters from Yue Jinchuan’s nose. If Yue Jinchuan had shouted a second later, his nose would have been flattened.

"Spit it out!" Ye Xiu said impatiently.

Yue Jinchuan trembled as he got to his feet and sneered, "The Island Master of Cloud Mist Island was ordered by Princess Kristina to deliver 30,000 Life Totems to the Golden Family. He was robbed along the way. On my way here, I happened to capture that very same robber."

Ye Xiu’s expression changed instantly. "What did you do to him?"
