762: Evidence, absurdity
"You!"
"You killed Young Miss!"
"Do you know what you're doing?"
The thirty-foot tall giant, who had suddenly fallen from the sky and lost his Aura, startled the Disciples loyal to Hua Qianshuang who were forming a Great Formation beside the palace. Even the giant sword killing formation that had descended from the sky could not be stably maintained, and the Great Formation fluctuated.
In front of the main hall, the female Cultivator, who looked to be around thirty, pointed at Zhou Tailai, who stood quietly in the air, her face filled with terror.
Young Miss had died right in front of so many of them.
No matter what, they would likely not survive this time.
After all, the Dao Lord Old Ancestor of Hua Fucheng was quite fond of Young Miss.
It was just unexpected that she would perish here.
"Young Miss is a true Disciple of the Dao Court, a descendant of a Heavenly Venerable, how dare you!"
The female Cultivator, who looked to be around thirty, felt despair.
This was a result she had never imagined.
Dongxuan Dao Court, one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects.
It had suppressed the Eastern Wasteland Continent for countless years.
Aside from the other nine Immortal Sects, no other Holy Land or family had ever dared to attack a descendant of a Heavenly Venerable, let alone so decisively take the life of a Heavenly Venerable's descendant.
"Haha..."
"In this world, no one is more noble than another; no one is unkillable."
Below, Zhou Tailai's expression remained unchanged.
Hua Qianshuang had come with malicious intent.
And her first move was a fatal attack.
She had a profound background and many Magic Treasures on her.
To deal with such a person, one must strike fatally with a single blow.
Leave no room, give the opponent no chance to breathe.
"We are doomed, and you are doomed too. The entire Qingyang Zhou Clan will cease to exist. Have you considered such consequences?"
The woman had already lost all will to live.
"As long as I kill you all, there will be no evidence."
"Without evidence, based on mere speculation, your Hongdao Peak lineage probably wouldn't dare to act against my Zhou Family."
Zhou Tailai was composed.
He had long ago perceived that someone intended to attack him.
That's why he came alone.
And even before entering this ambush, he had already activated the newly acquired green tortoise shell, which contained the secret of the River Map.
With the special nature of the River Map.
Even if he hadn't comprehended too much from it yet.
Just a simple activation could isolate the heavenly secrets of a region.
Blocking external prying.
Even if a Dao Lord had left something on Hua Qianshuang.
With the isolation of the River Map green tortoise shell, as long as the Dao Lord was not constantly watching Hua Qianshuang, it could block the Dao Lord's perception.
Zhou Tailai spoke as he walked towards the attendants, who were either ashen-faced, hateful, or gritting their teeth.
As his figure continuously approached.
Around Zhou Tailai, Magic Treasures emanating powerful might were already suspended, forming a Great Formation and releasing an unimaginable Aura.
This was the Ten Thousand Treasures Grand Array!
And ancient apes roared.
A golden giant ape revealed its fierce might from the Spirit Beast bracelet on Zhou Tailai's left wrist, roaring at the sky.
This was the Golden Ancient Ape.
Most skilled at charging head-on.
"Kill him, and your families will be safe!"
The woman, who looked to be around thirty, roared, and a tall Nascent Soul surged out from around her, reaching for the sky.
It seemed to be just one step away from entering a new Realm.
Achieving the Realm of a Soul Transformation Venerable.
But it was still just a little short.
"Kill!"
In front of the palace.
Figures each activated their Magic Treasures and cast spells, attacking Zhou Tailai, who was surrounded by countless Magic Treasures, and a several-hundred-foot-tall Golden Ancient Ape.
Rumble ~
It was as if thunder rumbled.
Space roared.
However, above this world, a huge, faintly visible green tortoise shell enveloped it.
Ensuring that this clash, like heavenly thunder, did not transmit the slightest fluctuation in all directions.
The world was tranquil, the wind light and clouds calm.
After an unknown amount of time.
Whoosh ~
A huge spirit boat, bearing a snake-patterned zhou character command flag, pierced through the clouds.
Descending downwards.
Below, Zhou Huiyang's family and Chao Muxi and the others, upon seeing the spirit boat descend, felt a stir in their hearts and flew towards the spirit boat suspended in the air.
"Revered Master."
"Ancestor Lai."
The group flew to the spirit boat and saluted the young Cultivator who stood at the head of the spirit boat, with stars seemingly in his eyes.
"Let's depart."
Zhou Tailai nodded, saying no more.
The group exchanged glances; they were all intelligent people.
They already had some suspicions, but none of them asked anything further.
They simply responded and returned to their respective rooms.
The spirit boat shook, pierced through the air, and disappeared... At the same time.
On Dao Saint Mountain, where the Dongxuan Dao Court was located, in Hongdao Peak.
Two figures, a man and a woman, looked extremely grim as they headed towards the top of Hongdao Peak.
Both were dressed in luxurious attire, exuding an air of nobility and elegance.
However, at this moment, their usual composure was entirely absent.
Before long, the man and woman had arrived before a tightly shut Immortal Cave.
"Grandfather, Qianshuang's soul lamp... has gone out!"
With a thud, the two knelt on the ground, shouting loudly towards the tightly shut Immortal Cave.
Boom!
As soon as the words fell.
An extremely powerful Aura, seemingly surpassing that of a Dao Lord, flashed from within the Immortal Cave.
The two looked up.
They saw a middle-aged, dignified man with deep eyes, but with a faint hint of anger, appear before the Immortal Cave.
A descendant of Hongdao Heavenly Venerable.
Hua Fucheng, a top-tier expert in the Late-stage Dao Integration Realm.
"Shuang'er's Aura... has dissipated..."
"Who could it be, to be able to block my perception and kill Shuang'er..."
Hua Fucheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
Like a tiger unleashed from its cage.
His Aura was heaven-shattering.
"Grandfather, you don't even know who attacked Qianshuang?"
The people kneeling on the ground were Hua Qianshuang's parents.
However, at this moment, they were somewhat taken aback.
Even their grandfather didn't know who the killer was.
"Who dares to offend the might of my Dao Court and commit such evil..."
Hua Qianshuang's parents collapsed onto the ground.
Hua Fucheng, suppressing his anger, did not answer, but was meticulously sensing something.
He seemed to want to find some Aura or clues.
"Qingyang Zhou Clan..."
"It must be the Qingyang Zhou Clan... A few days ago, Qianshuang sent a letter, wanting the Peak to take action against the Qingyang Zhou Clan, but the Peak Revered Master rejected it..."
"With Qianshuang's personality, she certainly wouldn't let it go at that..."
"Thinking of it this way, it must be the Qingyang Zhou Clan!"
"Grandfather!"
The man kneeling on the ground seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked up, staring at the dignified middle-aged man.
Beside him, the graceful woman's eyes were teary, looking at Hua Fucheng with hope.
"Qingyang Zhou Clan..."
Hua Fucheng exhaled softly, slowly closing his eyes.
"Qingyang Zhou Clan..."
"Go investigate. If you can find evidence..."
A moment later, Hua Fucheng opened his eyes, the Aura of a tiger unleashed having already diminished too much.
He instructed the two in front of him with a hint of powerlessness.
"Evidence?"
On the ground, Hua Qianshuang's mother felt a wave of absurdity.
The other party was not one of the other nine powers.
Just a newly promoted Holy Land.
When did the dignified Dongxuan Dao Court ever need to bother with evidence?
