Chapter 47: No Need for Evidence

With Qiu Mo, a six-star Earth Soul Immortal, protecting them, the people of the Zhu family immediately felt at peace.
Soon, Zhu Yu led the members of the Zhu family to inquire around various places on Zhu Yan Star, and they largely understood the details of the battle between the two Earth Immortals.
Naturally, Qiu Mo also quickly learned about the battle.
Standing on a high rooftop, Qiu Mo said, “One used water-based cultivation techniques, and the other used wood-based techniques. Since my friend Zhu Li practiced water-based techniques, then the one who killed him must be the Earth Immortal who used wood-based techniques.”
“Zhu Li was only a three-star Earth Soul Immortal. So, the person who could definitely kill him must be at least a five-star Earth Soul Immortal. It seems there’s no such Earth Soul Immortal on Zhu Yan Star.”
“The Zhu family has expanded to four planets. Considering their possible enemies and those who could reach the level of five-star Earth Soul Immortals, the only one is Yuwen Tianlan from Fangyang Star.”
“The answer is clear—Yuwen Tianlan is the killer of Zhu Li.”
Muttering to himself, Qiu Mo quickly identified the true murderer.
At that moment, Yu Wei, another six-star Earth Soul Immortal from the Youhan Sect, along with eight higher-ranked Soul Immortals, arrived on the rooftop.
“Qiu Mo, you’ve identified the killer. What’s your next move?” Yu Wei asked calmly.
Turning to look at Yu Wei, Qiu Mo replied coldly, “Go to Fangyang Star and eradicate the Yuwen family.”
Yu Wei smiled at Qiu Mo and said, “I understand. You want to eliminate the Yuwen family first to avenge Zhu Li, and also to warn the forces on all planets that with your protection, anyone who tries to deal with the Zhu family will face destruction.”
Qiu Mo nodded.
After all, he still needed to return to the Youhan Sect and couldn’t stay on Zhu Yan Star forever. He could only use this cruel method to warn all of the Zhu family’s enemies, especially those Earth Immortals—any matter related to the Zhu family was also his matter.
As for those rogue cultivators who had a grudge against the Zhu family, he believed the surviving higher-ranked Soul Immortals of the Zhu family could handle them alone.
Decided, Qiu Mo sent a message through his immortal consciousness to Zhu Yu, telling him to wait at the Zhu family’s headquarters while he went to Fangyang Star.
※※※
Fangyang Star, the headquarters of the Yuwen family.
At that moment, Qiu Mo, Yu Wei, and the eight higher-ranked Soul Immortals suddenly descended from the sky, landing at the Yuwen family’s headquarters.
Before their arrival, the people of the Yuwen family hadn’t realized any danger was approaching. Voices could be heard from various buildings, indicating that the Yuwen family was prosperous.
Bang!

The moment the ten people landed, each struck out with a palm toward one direction. As they formed a circle, these ten palm strikes created a massive circular wave of energy that, like giant ocean waves, completely destroyed the headquarters of the Yuwen family. A single palm strike was enough to annihilate their headquarters.
“Ah, who is that?!”
“Which faction dares to wreak havoc on our Yuwen family?”
“Whoever dares to attack our Yuwen family will be utterly wiped out.”
……
As the buildings were destroyed, the cultivators of the Yuwen family who were below the Great Vehicle stage had virtually no chance of survival; they turned into elemental energies and dispersed into nature. Most of the Immortal Humans of the Yuwen family survived, now flying in the air in fury, roaring at Qiu Mo and the other ten.
Qiu Mo and the eight higher-ranked Soul Immortals watching calmly scanned the Yuwen family members with their immortal senses and realized that more than five hundred people were still alive.
Yu Wei, on the other hand, remained smiling, paying no attention at all to the people of the Yuwen family.
“Listen up, people of the Yuwen family! We come from the Youhan Sect. My old friend Zhu Li was killed by Yuwen Tianlan. I am here to avenge my friend,” Qiu Mo shouted coldly, his killing intent evident.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Mo and the eight Soul Immortals flew into the air and began the massacre.
“What? The Youhan Sect?”
In an instant, the surviving members of the Yuwen family trembled at the mention of these three words.
The Youhan Sect was the most powerful force in the entire Youxing Cluster, essentially the actual ruler of the whole cluster.
The survivors of the Yuwen family couldn’t understand how their family had offended the Youhan Sect, and it seemed that it was their ancestor, Yuwen Tianlan, who had caused the trouble.
Ah!
In the blink of an eye, twenty of the Yuwen family members flying in the air were killed as they failed to resist the attacks of Qiu Mo and his group. The rest tried desperately to escape.
“Fellow cultivators of the Youhan Sect, do you have any evidence that our ancestor killed Zhu Li? You can’t falsely accuse our Yuwen family. If you attack us without solid proof, and this gets out, it will also have a negative impact on the Youhan Sect,” said Yuwen Qitian, the clan leader, his voice loud and clear.
Qiu Mo, who was in the midst of killing, suddenly heard Yuwen Qitian’s voice and immediately located him.
“Hmph! Do I need proof to kill you? What kind of creature are you? Die!” Qiu Mo said coldly, his eyes gleaming.

In an instant, Qiu Mo appeared right beside Yuwen Qitian as if teleporting. A yellow sword slashed through the air, and a faint yellow sword glow struck Yuwen Qitian in the blink of an eye.

Qiu Mo, a Earthly Six-Star Earth Soul Immortal, had used the speed of transformation in the spell he just cast—a type of explosive speed that, when mastered to its extreme, allowed for teleportation. Yuwen Qitian, being merely an Upper Soul Immortal, could hardly surpass such speed. When the sword glow hit him, his entire body exploded, leaving not even a trace of his soul behind.

“Chieftain!”

All the members of the Yuwen family who were fleeing cried out in pain upon realizing that Yuwen Qitian had been killed with just one strike.

However, everyone in the Yuwen family understood that reasoning with people like Qiu Mo was useless; fleeing was now the only right choice.

Indeed, as the actual rulers of the Earthly Yin Star Cluster, the Youhan Sect would never bother explaining anything to a mere Yuwen family. Strength was the ultimate truth.

Qiu Mo swiftly moved his gaze around and, in moments, arrived at another location. With a single swing of his sword, many members of the Yuwen family died. At the same time, the eight Upper Soul Immortals accompanying Qiu Mo also killed countless people with great proficiency, wielding their immortal weapons to slay the Yuwen family members one by one.

The air was filled with chaotic flows of the Five Elements’ primal energy, along with a howling storm that ravaged the land.

※※※

Yuwen Tianlan’s cultivation site, the Central Hall, was also completely destroyed. Yet Yuwen Tianlan did not emerge, as if he had never been there at all.

In truth, when the ten people led by Qiu Mo descended from the sky, the Weapon God detected them and immediately informed Qu Yi. Without hesitation, Qu Yi pulled Yuwen Tianlan into the Dimensional Sphere to prevent him from being discovered by Qiu Mo and his men.

Inside a valley within the Dimensional Sphere…

“How did I end up here? What trick did you use?” Yuwen Tianlan shouted at Qu Yi, looking at the bare cliffs surrounding him.

Qu Yi had never revealed his name to Yuwen Tianlan, and he had suddenly pulled him into the Dimensional Sphere just now. Naturally, Yuwen Tianlan was unaware of what had happened to his family.

Qu Yi’s immortal awareness had already seen the situation outside and knew that the Yuwen family had suffered a devastating blow.

“Yuwen Tianlan, you don’t need to know why you’re here. I’m telling you now that the Yuwen family, which you built from scratch, is currently being massacred by ten people from the Youhan Sect,” Qu Yi said calmly.

What!

Yuwen Tianlan was instantly stunned, his mouth wide open in shock.

“That’s impossible! I’ve never had any conflict with the Youhan Sect. How could they send people to attack our tiny Yuwen family?” he cried in panic.

Qu Yi shook his head and sighed. “Yuwen Tianlan, you may not have fought against the Youhan Sect, but you killed Zhu Li not long ago. The main culprit behind the destruction of your Yuwen family comes from the Youhan Sect and was even an old friend of Zhu Li.”

Yuwen Tianlan was stunned again, his face showing pain.

The Youhan Sect was the largest sect in the entire Diyou Star Cluster. Families like the Yuwen family, confined to a small planet like Fangyang, were considered less than ants in their eyes. Naturally, if it was someone from the Youhan Sect who destroyed the Yuwen family, it would be utterly impossible for Yuwen Tianlan to seek revenge.

At this moment, Qu Yi’s mind was also in turmoil. He never expected that killing Zhu Li would lead to such a situation. According to his original plan, he wanted to strengthen the Tongzhou Hall, secretly take control of it, and then dominate the surrounding planets. With that power, he could obtain many cultivation resources and accelerate the advancement of his five avatars. But now, the arrival of Qiu Mo had completely disrupted his plans.

However, if it were just the destruction of the Yuwen family, it wouldn’t be too much of a loss for Qu Yi. As long as Qiu Mo stopped targeting the Tongzhou Hall and returned to the Youhan Sect after killing the Yuwen family, Qu Yi could still proceed with his plans.

“Yuwen Tianlan, those ten people from the Youhan Sect include two Six-Star Earth Soul Immortals and eight Upper-Class Soul Immortals. Leaving here will only lead to your death. So wait until things calm down outside before investigating and plotting revenge,” Qu Yi said calmly, looking at Yuwen Tianlan.

Yuwen Tianlan was only a Five-Star Earth Soul Immortal. Hearing Qu Yi’s words, he realized his strength was insufficient to confront those two Six-Star Earth Soul Immortals, let alone save his family.

“Those who destroyed the Yuwen family I built with such effort will one day be killed by me as revenge for my family,” Yuwen Tianlan shouted, his face twisted in pain.

Qu Yi’s immortal awareness continued to observe the outside, his expression gradually darkening.
