Is it reasonable to abduct someone else's department head?

"Ah, seriously? I don't believe it!" Itou Jizan cried out, his expression completely shattered.

Director Jennifer was, after all, the top-tier female celebrity of all Japan.

Aside from serving as the director of the Paranormal Alliance's Japan branch, she frequently participated in various entertainment activities, dabbling in both the music and film industries.

Furthermore, every song she released was a masterpiece, and every movie she starred in became a massive box-office hit!

Jennifer's popularity in Japan was practically equivalent to that of Yang Yiqiu in the Dragon Kingdom!

Both were the absolute pinnacle of top-tier stardom!

Therefore, even though he was an old man, nobody was surprised that Itou Jizan was her fan. The only one left completely baffled was Ye Tian, who knew nothing about Japanese pop culture.

"Get lost, stop acting crazy here!" Li Jingxiang didn't even bother to entertain him, turning instead to gaze at Ye Tian with a beaming smile. Her infatuated look made his scalp tingle slightly.

"Oh my, Mr. Ye, actually I..."

"Spit it out if you have something to say!"

"How ruthless!" Rejected so mercilessly, the woman actually looked rather thrilled, taking another step closer to him.

"What I want to say is, if I want to bring a group of people with me to the Dragon Kingdom and work like beasts of burden for you, would you be willing?"

Work like beasts of burden?

Ye Tian's eyes widened, and his whole being felt deeply unsettled.

Big sis, you are the director of the Paranormal Alliance branch, why are you suddenly uttering such rebellious and outrageous remarks!

Keep in mind that the media was still live-streaming, and the recording and video equipment were all operating.

Every single word Li Jingxiang uttered would be broadcast to the entire world!

Don't be like this, you might not care about your dignity, but I still want mine!

In the future, my Ye family intends to represent the hawkish faction of the Dragon Kingdom, facing foreign powers with the most uncompromising stance. Why on earth are you, a high-ranking official of the Paranormal Alliance, coming over to cozy up to me?

What would people back home think of me?

"I don't associate with people from the Paranormal Alliance. Since I can see you harbor no malicious intent, be on your way now, or else I'm going to take action," Ye Tian said sternly.

"Who says I'm a person of the Paranormal Alliance? The moment you give your approval, I am entirely yours."

"The Paranormal Alliance? Who needs them!"

Li Jingxiang pressed on relentlessly, her tone so sincere that it seemed she was truly not joking.

Ye Tian was genuinely shocked this time:

"You mean... you really want to sever ties with the Paranormal Alliance and pledge your loyalty to me?!"

"Yes, I deeply admire you. If there is anyone in this world worthy of me, it must be you, Ye Tian. That's why I want to pursue you!" Li Jingxiang said sincerely.

As a person of mixed heritage who had lived in the United States for a long time, she was accustomed to the bold and aggressive dating culture there, where people pursued whoever they liked rather than being as reserved as girls from the Dragon Kingdom.

She was actually thirty-five years old this year, but from childhood until now, she had never been romantically involved with any man. Those pretty boys she went to school and practiced martial arts with never caught her eye.

Why? Because they were too weak, and their talent was far too mediocre!

Li Jingxiang intended to follow a man who was absolutely powerful and possessed supreme talent—at the very least, he had to be stronger than her to make sense.

Yet, after living in the United States for twenty years and in Japan for fifteen, she had never once met a man who satisfied her standards.

Just as Li Jingxiang thought she was destined to spend her life in solitude, she saw Ye Tian in the live broadcast.

Good heavens, twenty-five years old, ripping apart a shadow-tier powerhouse with his bare hands!

What kind of terrifying strength, what heaven-defying talent, what an absolute monster was this!

And on top of that, he was extremely handsome—that was the crucial point.

Li Jingxiang fell for him instantly. She decided to cast aside everything from her past and pursue Ye Tian; this was her unshakeable resolution!

"This..."

All at once, Ye Tian was at a loss for what to do.

Although having more manpower for the family was a good thing, poaching talent right in front of the whole world made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

"I can bring fifteen Mount Tai-realm experts, five Beidou-realm experts, and myself—a first-tier Martial King!"

"What do you think?"

"Deal, that is definitely a deal!"

Ye Tian was overjoyed.

No matter how foolish someone might be, at a moment like this, they couldn't afford to care about so-called face.

Fifteen Mount Tai-realm experts, and five Beidou-realm experts!

Most importantly, there was also a Martial King!

With such a luxury lineup joining their ranks, the Ye family would directly vault from a first-rate family in Central City to the premier powerhouse clan, becoming a presence that carried significant weight throughout the entire Dragon Kingdom!

Furthermore, the woman before him was actually a Martial King!

A Martial King willing to submit to him.

Regardless of her underlying motives or thoughts, as long as she was willing to defect, Ye Tian naturally had ways to keep her under control without worrying about any betrayal.

After all, the Soul-Capture Technique wasn't something he learned for nothing!

Keep in mind that in the present-day Dragon Kingdom, only those ancient martial arts clans or top-tier factions had Martial King-level powerhouses holding down the fort!

Even the Suzaku Unit, hailed as the overlord of the south, had a commander who was merely a second-tier Martial King!

"I can accept you, but before that, I have one condition."

Feigning deep thought for a moment, Ye Tian said solemnly:

"Before I completely trust you, I need to plant a master-servant seal on you, and the same goes for the subordinates you bring along."

"Normally, I won't restrict your actions; this seal is merely a precaution against any potential betrayal."

"Very well, you can do it right now!" Li Jingxiang replied without changing her expression, nodding in agreement.

Oh crap, I actually picked up a Martial King. Am I really this lucky, or is my charm simply too overwhelming...

"Anyway, I am already yours. You can issue any orders you please; a mere seal is nothing at all."

"Good!"

Since the other party was being this sincere, Ye Tian stopped standing on ceremony. He immediately cast a spell on Li Jingxiang and led her onto the plane.

"Then you can come back with me first; the others don't need to rush."

With a single command from Ye Tian, right in front of everyone's eyes, he directly took Li Jingxiang with him, lifted off from Japan, and flew straight toward the Dragon Kingdom!

"Ah, Jennifer, my Jennifer!"

Just moments earlier, they had been furious over Ye Tian defeating the Five Shadow-tier powerhouses, but the next second, the people of Japan were kneeling on the ground, wailing in despair.

Their ageless goddess, whom they had chased after for years, had just been abducted like that by a man from the Dragon Kingdom!

It was simply ultimate humiliation!

It hurts, it hurts so much! Without Jennifer, what meaning was there left in life?

"Hmph, what are you crying about? We're the ones left speechless." The Paranormal Alliance members, who had originally tagged along with their director just to watch the commotion, couldn't even be bothered to fake expressions anymore.

They had long known that Jennifer was unreliable; she was always lazy at work and dumped the branch's affairs onto her subordinates.

Who could have expected that this woman would be swayed by a pretty face and commit treason without a second thought?

Now they were left with a huge mess that was impossible to clean up!

What could they say? They were completely helpless too!

Meanwhile, along the eastern coastline, Sachiko, who had been quietly watching the live stream, finally let her hanging heart rest in peace.

"Master Ye truly is an extraordinary person. Even Iga was no match for him, and even the director of the Paranormal Alliance is willing to follow him voluntarily."

"Someone like me probably spent a lifetime's worth of luck just to cross paths with him, didn't I?" Sachiko thought to herself, clutching her chest with a sense of loss.

Suddenly, however, her phone rang:

"Is this Miss Sachiko? We are people from the Itou family. To ensure your safety, Mr. Ye has invited you and the old gentleman to come live in the Dragon Kingdom."

"If you are willing, we can send people to pick you up right away."

"I am willing, of course I am!"

A radiant, irrepressible joy bloomed across the young girl's face.

That's wonderful! I get to see Master Ye again!
