Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

Lin Yu laughed, but there was a chill in his smile.

"Of course it's murder."

. . . . . .

After leaving Tushan, Lin Yu led a large group of men directly to the border fortress.

There was no unnecessary talk, and no hesitation whatsoever.

With a direct suppression using martial will, all the cultivators in the fortress instantly knelt on the ground, unable to move.

What happens next is simple.

They forced the scion of the powerful family to reveal his true identity, and then killed him without hesitation.

Although he knew that there would be many kind and innocent people among them.

But since a blood feud has already been formed, there is no need to be sentimental. Being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to oneself.

In no time, within ten minutes, all the aristocratic scions in the fortress had been eliminated.

Compared to their own lives, the lives of others are utterly insignificant.

The progress has been extremely smooth.

After dealing with the fortress, Lin Yu arranged for all the Silver Moon Guards from Tushan to stay here, and after leaving behind the Thousand-Mile Tracking Talisman, he left with Feng Qi.

The next step is to eliminate the powerful clans, and it's inconvenient to move with a large force.

After leaving the border fortress, the two sped along, heading straight for the nearest Zhang family.

By the time the two arrived at the Zhang family's house, it was getting late.

Feng Qi gazed at the city below, a faint, dark light gleaming in her eyes.

"Just wait over there."

Lin Yu stopped Feng Qi from doing so.

Although her power is currently being controlled by the love potion.

However, Lin Yu was still not entirely at ease with overuse.

Upon hearing this, Feng Qi spread his hands, took two steps back, and looked at him with an expression that suggested he was watching a performance, appearing quite obedient.

Since their relationship took another step forward last time, Feng Qi seems to have taken Lin Yu's words to heart and has seriously begun to enjoy her "last moments".

Lin Yu nodded and transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the city.

The Zhang family's stronghold was located in a large city, where many people still lived.

In order to avoid affecting these people, as well as the Zhang family's cultivation methods and numerous resources, Lin Yu did not use any overly tragic methods to completely destroy them.

Instead, they stormed into the Zhang family and wiped them all out.

Under absolute dominance, even though the Zhang family was a top-tier family in the Dao Alliance, they were no match for Lin Yu's attack.

Even if there were any so-called "ancestors" in the family, in Lin Yu's eyes they were nothing more than slightly larger ants.

After about half an hour, and after scanning the area several times with his mental energy to ensure that no one was around, Lin Yu's figure reappeared in the night sky and came to Feng Qi's side.

"Is everything cleaned up?"

Feng Qi looked at Lin Yu beside her, whose clothes had no bloodstains but whose body was shrouded in a strong smell of blood, and asked him.

"Yes, everything is taken care of."

"I have to say, these powerful families are really deep-rooted. There are even two great demon kings in the family who have one foot in the grave. They want to self-destruct when they see me. Fortunately, I acted quickly, otherwise, at least a lot of innocent people would have been affected."

"That's where I come in handy, isn't it?"

"Of course, it all went so smoothly thanks to you."

Lin Yu took Feng Qi's hand very naturally and praised her generously.

Of course, you should praise your own wife more.

After dealing with the Zhang family, before leaving, Lin Yu channeled his inner force into the Zhang family's underground, covering the entire Zhang family compound.

If anyone tries to enter the Zhang family after they leave, or tries to take advantage of the situation, they should think carefully about whether they can withstand the power of a demon emperor.

Without taking a break, the two set off again into the night.

It lasted all night.

Lin Yu and Feng Qi were like death gods walking in the night.

He bestowed the aura of death upon the great families.

It was a night of bloodshed.

Even if Feng Qi didn't make a move, Lin Yu was still a hopeless and irresistible force to the aristocratic families of the Dao Alliance.

What made it even more tragic for them was that, in front of the two demon emperors, they couldn't even manage to send a message out.

The phoenix's perch outside prevented any possibility of escape or communication.

The two finally stopped what they were doing when dawn broke and the vibrant sun rose on the horizon.

The entire Dao Alliance, comprising thirty-seven aristocratic families, was completely wiped out of the mortal world overnight.

Except for those not belonging to the family, all others were exterminated.

Among these powerful families, the only one that caused even the slightest trouble was the Wang Quan family.

After all, it is the family with the longest history in the Dao Alliance. Even though Wang Quan Shou Zhuo disbanded the Sword Tomb, there is still a lot of hidden power in the family.

The presence of several powerful demon king-level cultivators surprised Lin Yu, not to mention the various powerful formations and magical treasures.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if Wang Quan Baye and his son Wang Quan Shouzhuo were dead, the Wang Quan family would still be the most powerful family in the Dao Alliance, without exception.

However, none of these had any effect on Lin Yu and Feng Qi.

"Phew, it's finally all done. The remaining few people are no threat."

In the Wang Quan family's residence, Lin Yu sat on the roof of the tallest building, gazing at the rising sun on the horizon, and stretched.

Compared to other aristocratic families, the royal family's territory is much larger.

The entire city belonged to the royal family.

That night, the entire city was extinguished of all life.

"Then we need to arrange the people of Tushan one by one, and finally absorb some rogue cultivators, using the resources of the major families and the techniques they possess as bait."

"Although it's a bit troublesome, it's something that has to be done."

Lin Yu was very clear in his heart that he had conflicts with the powerful families of the Dao Alliance, not with innocent human people.

Now that he has overthrown the corrupt "guardian" of the Dao Alliance, he should, both morally and logically, give them a stronger and safer guardian.

This is his responsibility until a new generation of martial artists and cultivators grow up.

These things must be done well.

"But even if these things were done, no one would understand them now."

Feng Qi lowered her head, looking at a figure lying in a pool of blood, its face full of resentment and unwillingness, and spoke softly.

"I didn't do it with the intention of making them grateful to me. As long as I have a clear conscience, that's enough."

Lin Yu shook his head and spoke calmly.

"So what you did to me was also without ulterior motives?"

Feng Qi looked at Lin Yu with her clear black and white eyes and said something meaningful.

"How could that be? Of course there's a purpose behind it."

Lin Yu smiled and took Feng Qi's hand. "Look, this is the first step."

"The last time we were in Tushan was the second step."

As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Qi abruptly pulled her hand back, her figure drifting with the wind to the other side of the roof, looking at Lin Yu with some wariness.

"And then you have a third step, a fourth step?"

"Yes."

Lin Yu spoke very sincerely, his face full of genuine emotion.

"Not only is there a third step and a fourth step, but there is also an ultimate goal."

"The ultimate goal?!"

Feng Qi looked down at herself, seemingly considering what the ultimate goal was if she followed Lin Yu's steps.

The moment she lowered her head, Lin Yu silently appeared behind her and pulled her slender body into his arms.

Just as Feng Qi was about to struggle, she felt a surge of heat near her ear, which made her instinctively shudder.

Have you ever heard the saying?

"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach."

"Actually, this statement also applies to women."

Upon hearing this, Feng Qi turned her head away with disgust and said, "What a vicious mind! I never thought I would have picked up such a treacherous person back then."
