Chapter 213: Chapter 211: The Eight Great Families Arrive! Do I Look Like a Disciple of the Star Moon Tower?

Four days.

Four days had passed since the campaign against Qingheng Sect.

Liang Hui stood atop a mountain, overlooking the deep pit a hundred miles wide below.

This was once the mountain gate of Qingheng Sect, now sunken by the Divine Beast Cauldron and turned into history.

Gone with it all the disciples who had fled, all were curse-killed.

At this moment, the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect had already returned.

Only he was still here, pondering over the palm strike of the blue-eyed maiden and the objects from the dream of Qingheng Sect.

The youth caressed the White Bone Tiger Demon beside his feet, yet his consciousness drifted towards the Flowing Light Bell woven into his hair.

Immortal glows intertwined with each other, forming information unique to him.

Taoist Child (True Realization 34.01%)

In the past half-month, Liang Hui had concentrated most of his efforts on the cultivation of a Taoist Child, advancing over 20%.

That is to say, with enough sacrificial resources, it would only take him a little more than two months to break through to the Entry Dao Level.

And with the strange path he followed, plus most of Qingheng Sect’s resources, he wouldn’t lack resources.

Roar!

The White Bone Tiger Demon beside his feet suddenly roared in one direction.

The space rippled like seawater.

Eight blurry figures emerged in the distance, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at the White Bone Tiger Demon beside the youth.

With a thought from Liang Hui, the White Bone Tiger Demon obediently lay down.

And those eight figures quickened their pace, reaching the youth in just a few breaths.

Liang Hui’s expression was indifferent as he looked at the somewhat familiar figures.

"The eight great families of Jiaozhou."

He had seen four of them before at the Tianyuan Secret Realm.

Although he hadn’t seen their true faces back then, he still remembered their presence.

"Divine Emperor Your Majesty, it is us. Hearing that you were going to campaign against Qingheng Sect, we came to assist. Alas, we are a step too late," said an elder clad in brocade, his face apologetic.

Jiaozhou was too far from Qingzhou, and upon learning that the Divine Emperor was a Taoist Child of the Beast Taming Sect, they set out immediately, but still, they were too late.

Liang Hui didn’t respond right away but took his time to carefully observe the eight people’s appearances and auras.

Four with divine veins, Primordial Spirits; four with energy veins, at Entry Dao Level; this must be the foundation of the eight great families.

His gaze lingered on an elder in a purple robe for several moments, finally settling on a dignified middle-aged man.

"The Liu Family?"

"Divine Emperor Your Majesty, I am the patriarch of the Liu Family," the middle-aged man said respectfully, hands hanging by his side.

Hmm!

Liang Hui let out a light chuckle.

He extended his hand, slowly moving it towards the middle-aged man, his eyes carrying a hint of playful anticipation as if waiting for something.

As his hand neared the man’s forehead, the latter’s expression remained respectful, showing no sign of resistance.

"The Liu, Wang, and Yong families participated in an ambush against me in the secret realm," he said.

"Patriarch of the Liu Family, what do you think should be done?"

"Exile!"

The middle-aged man’s body trembled slightly, his eyes filled with despair.

In the Tianyuan Secret Realm, indeed, descendants of the eight great families had offended the youth before them, including members of the Liu Family.

Bang!

The middle-aged man, disregarding the dignity of a Primordial Spirit cultivator, knelt down on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the Liu Family deserves death, but some distant relatives with the bloodline have nearly left the clan and enjoyed no benefits from the family. I hope you will spare them," he pleaded.

Two other elders knelt alongside him, the strongest from the Wang and Yong families.

They came prepared this time, ready to offer their lives if they indeed had offended the Divine Emperor in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.

They hoped their sacrifice would quell His Majesty’s anger and secure a chance of survival for their family’s bloodline.

The youth’s actions were too startling.

Whether righteous or demonic, his slaughter counted in the millions.

No wonder even those sword cultivators known for their intolerance to evil were now keeping to themselves.

Bang!

A palm struck the middle-aged man’s forehead.

His soul and body shattered instantly, the Liu Family patriarch’s orifices bled as he slowly fell.

Even in death, his eyes begged Liang Hui for mercy.

Bang!

Another palm descended, and an Entry Dao Level elder followed the Liu Family patriarch into the afterlife.

Liang Hui stepped forward, moving towards the last kneeling elder.

"Wang or Yong?"

"Your Majesty, I am the Yong Family’s elder ancestor." The old man lifted his head, his eyes filled with hope.

"After you leave, tell the Liu and Wang family elders that I have agreed."

"Thank you, Divine Emperor Your Majesty."

Bang!

The final palm strike came down, ending the life of the Yong Family’s elder ancestor.

Only afterwards did the youth turn his attention to the elder clad in a purple robe.

"Song Family?"

"Your Majesty, I am from the Song Family."

Liang Hui’s mouth curled into a smile.

His hand lifted again, in the face of the purple-robed elder’s look of terror.

Smack!

His hand came to rest on the elder’s shoulder.

"Go, kill the legitimate line of the Liu, Wang, and Yong families, then bring the eight great families to Tuzhou."

"Thank you for your great kindness, Divine Emperor Your Majesty. I know what to do."

Liang Hui lightly patted the elder’s shoulder, stepping past the five figures and looking down upon the mountains and rivers below.

"The eight great families should feel fortunate that the Song Family has a wise girl."

"Remember, I want the legitimate lines of the Liu, Wang, and Yong families completely eradicated."

"If one survives, believe me, it’s an outcome you would definitely not wish to see."

"Yes."

At this moment, the murderous intent in the eyes of the five figures behind Liang Hui was chilling to the bone.

This matter of the survival of their families demanded their utmost effort to investigate and purge.

Liang Hui waved his hand, indicating that the five could leave.

Their visit was but a few minutes long before they set off on their return journey.

The youth advanced with a step, walking on the air, followed by the White Bone Organization’s tiger demon.

Man and tiger swiftly disappeared into the horizon.

Setting out from Qingzhou, he headed south.

Passing through Tuzhou and directly into Jingzhou.

This time heading south, he intended to subdue all the forces within Great Chu.

To provide a safe stronghold for the Beast Taming Sect, or rather, the Divine Court.

...

In the central part of Jingzhou, at the gates of the Star Moon Tower.

The once ceaseless stream of disciples seeking apprenticeship was now utterly deserted.

A handsome young man in a blue robe strode forward.

Moving freely among the mountains, he seemed quite familiar with this territory.

’Just like in my dreams!’

Liang Hui sighed softly.

The Star Moon Tower had been the most frequently entered in his dreams among the top Taoist legacies.

His boxing and Taoist Child cultivation had borrowed much from them.

Let the hatred and enmity between the two come to an end today.

A heavy, explosive, and sharp aura rose from Liang Hui’s body.

In an instant, it enveloped the entire Star Moon Tower, like threatening storm clouds over a city, causing many figures to look towards the heavens.

There were those who accepted it calmly, those who felt bitterness, and those who despaired, a variety of emotions emerging in their hearts.

Inside the Star Moon Tower, reaching high into the sky, the silver tower at the very top.

Three figures sat cross-legged there, each emitting a grand, imposing aura, the cornerstone of the Star Moon Tower.

"This day has finally come, hasn’t it?"

"Later than we expected, seeing as he went to destroy the Qingheng Sect first."

"Sooner or later, what difference does it make? We cannot escape the final reckoning."

"We’ve done all that we could. Now let us three be the ones to test the mettle of his fist."

"The Star Moon Tower has never been weaker than anyone else."

Suddenly.

The three in discussion turned their gaze towards the exterior of the tower simultaneously.

The sky grew dark!

The stars filled the vault of heaven above, and a round moon shed its gentle glow.

A figure stood under the bright moon, looking down at the Star Moon Tower.

Starlight and Moonlight Essence cloaked him in a robe of star and moonlight, mystical and tranquil.
