Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

Having cleared away all the demonic race members before him, Song Pingchao showed no joy. Instead, his face was filled with worry as he looked at Su Mu and asked, "Although we have defeated this demonic commander today, the Black Mist Domain will give birth to new demonic commanders in a while. What should we do then?"

Su Mu remained silent for a moment, then understood Song Pingchao's implication. The most direct method was to send a message to the Star Palace, dispatching a celestial being to remain stationed there long-term, repeatedly killing the newly emerged Ghost Commander and preventing him from growing stronger.

However, a problem arose: the core territory of the Star Palace was not in the Langya Star System, and no god was willing to stay on a remote transit planet for a long time. Even if the Star Palace was notified, a proper solution could not be obtained in a short period of time.

However, Dark Star is the only route Su Mu takes between Tianyuan Star and Taidou Star, and allowing the Ghost Commander to continue to grow stronger would have endless consequences. Especially since Dark Star is not far from Tianyuan Star, if the Ghost Commander were to lead his army to invade Tianyuan Star while he was on his way to Taidou Star... Su Mu dared not think any further.

Su Mu narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them, and quickly sorted out his thoughts. After a moment, he spoke: "Rather than thinking about how to suppress the Ghost Commander, the most important thing right now is to find out the root cause of the sudden surge in the Dark Star Ghost Clan."

Who is behind this? What is their motive for deliberately cultivating a large number of high-level monsters?

Song Pingchao and Zhao Lei remained silent, completely unable to guess the identity of the mastermind. The room fell silent until Su Mu finally broke the silence: "Whatever their schemes, since they've deliberately cultivated the Ghost Commander here, their target must be Dark Star. Let's thoroughly search the entire Black Mist domain first, then explore Dark Star's home planet and surrounding inhabited planets; perhaps we can find some clues."

The three continued their search deeper into the black mist. Fortunately, the Ghost Commander they had just killed was the strongest being in this black mist, and there were no other high-ranking Ghost Clan members lying in ambush. After several fruitless searches, the three set off to leave the black mist, intending to travel to nearby planets to pursue clues.

The instant the three stepped out of the black mist domain, six ferocious wolf howls suddenly exploded. Awooo—

The mournful howl of wolves accompanied by a shower of blood-red light fell, directly trapping Su Mu and his two companions in the center of the airspace. Six tall figures slowly appeared above the three of them.

The newcomers were all wrapped in rough animal hides, and their figures were similar to those of humans. Each of them was over ten feet tall, and their faces were covered with ferocious wolf markings.

Su Mu had never seen this clan before, but Song Pingchao recognized them at a glance and said sternly, "Mo Qi, Mo Du, what is the purpose of your Sky Wolf Clan's actions? Are you perhaps planning a full-scale war with my Star Palace?"

Song Pingchao revealed the identities of the others. Seeing Su Mu's puzzled expression, Zhao Lei quickly whispered an explanation: "Godfather, these six people are from the Tianlang Clan of Tianjue Star. The clan also has a God-King in charge." "The Tianlang Clan has a terrible reputation, relying entirely on plundering resources from various planets to sustain their cultivation. In the past, the Tianlang Clan and the Star Palace never interfered with each other. I don't know why they have come from afar to attack us today. Tianjue Star is extremely far from the Langya Star System. It's really strange."

After listening to Zhao Lei's words, Su Mu had already guessed most of the truth. A race from a distant realm that made its living by plundering had traveled thousands of miles to intercept him halfway through the Langya Star System. Without much questioning, it was clear that the Three-Eyed Clan God King had secretly colluded with and invited them to help him.

Su Mu's gaze swept over the six people, and he pondered to himself. Six Heavenly God Realm cultivators trying to ambush him—was it because the Three-Eyed God King hadn't truthfully revealed his trump cards, or was the Heavenly Wolf Clan simply too arrogant and overconfident?

Before Su Mu could finish his thoughts, the Sky Wolf God Mo Qi, leading the group above, burst into wild laughter: "Song Pingchao, don't try to intimidate me with the Star Palace's name. The Sky Wolf Clan has never feared the Star Palace. As long as the three of you perish outside this Dark Star today, who will be able to find out that it was our Sky Wolf Clan who did it?"

As Mo Qi's unrestrained laughter subsided, the six Heavenly Wolf Clan Gods shifted their steps and instantly formed the Six Harmonies Formation. A sky full of crimson light enveloped the entire airspace, trapping Su Mu and his two companions within the formation.

The fact that the six people could instantly form a complete killing formation is enough to prove that they had been lying in ambush here for a long time, and that everything was a pre-planned ambush.

Su Mu narrowed his eyes and sized up the six people in the sky. He was now completely certain that the Sky Wolf Clan must be assassins recruited by the Three-Eyed King with a large sum of money.

Within the formation, piercing sound waves of ghostly howls echoed continuously, invading their consciousness and causing inexplicable irritation in their hearts. Their blood and qi surged restlessly, almost breaking through their meridians.

Song Pingchao explained the details of the formation in a low voice: "This is the unique Six Harmony Wolf God Formation of the Heavenly Wolf Clan. It is activated by six Heavenly Gods working together, and the overall attack power of the formation is enough to rival a God King."

If he were trapped in the Six Harmonies Wolf God Formation in the past, Song Pingchao would have been extremely anxious, as he would have been powerless to break the formation on his own. But at this moment, his tone was calm, showing no sign of panic.

This composure aroused suspicion among the six Heavenly Wolf Gods, including Mo Qi, who secretly wondered if Song Pingchao possessed a top-tier escape treasure, which gave him his confidence.

But Song Pingchao's next move left the six Heavenly Wolf Gods completely bewildered. Song Pingchao turned to the side, cupped his hands, and respectfully addressed Su Mu: "The Heavenly Wolf Clan, instigated by outsiders, is deliberately trying to ambush the people of the Star Palace. We request that Fellow Daoist Su take action and kill them all."

Even if Song Pingchao hadn't spoken, Su Mu had already planned to take action himself. His deliberate invitation was actually a subtle way of reminding him.

The ambush by the Sirius Clan was enough to confirm that the mastermind was the Three-Eyed King. Song Pingchao was worried that Su Mu would show mercy, so he planned to capture the six people alive and take them to Taidou Star, hoping to rely on the rules of the Star Palace to seek justice and have the Star Palace Lord punish the Three-Eyed King.

justice?

True justice and right and wrong have always been based solely on absolute strength.

In Song Pingchao's view, it was still absolutely impossible to alarm the Star Palace Master and get him to personally take action to uphold justice for Su Mu and punish a reigning God-King, even with the help of a human God-King.

Now, apart from the reclusive Palace Master, only two God-Kings are openly in charge of the Star Palace, each responsible for maintaining its structure and deterring other star regions.

Song Pingchao deliberately reminded Su Mu to recognize the situation and that now was not the time to completely settle scores with the Three-Eyed Clan or confront them head-on.

Su Mu's calculations were far more clear and insightful than Song Pingchao's.

"Oh."

Su Mu chuckled softly, turned to look at Song Pingchao, gave him a reassuring look, and said calmly and confidently, "Fellow Daoist Song, rest assured. The Heavenly Wolf Clan dared to cross boundaries and invade my Heavenly Palace territory. Today, I will make sure that all of them remain here forever."

Zhao Lei, listening to the two's cryptic conversation, was completely bewildered, unable to understand the hidden power struggle and deeper meaning in their words, but he did catch the most crucial information.

Song Pingchao actually intended to stand by and watch the whole thing, letting his godfather Su Mu fight against six Heavenly God-level experts of the Tianlang Clan single-handedly.

What Zhao Lei found most unbelievable was that Su Mu himself not only readily agreed, but also had a calm and composed expression on his face, as if this was a trivial matter that was only natural and not worth mentioning.

Zhao Lei was completely dumbfounded.

Could it be that my godfather's true combat strength has already reached a terrifying level of invincibility below the Heavenly God Realm?

While filled with doubt, Su Mu had already made his move.

"snort!"

Su Mu raised his eyes and glanced at the six Sky Wolf Clan Gods who were eyeing him menacingly high in the sky. His eyes were full of disdain, and he said coldly, "Six mere Sky Gods dare to attack me rashly. Today, I will make your Sky Wolf Clan remember that choosing the wrong opponent and taking the wrong step will ultimately cost you a bloody price."

The moment the words left his mouth, Su Mu grabbed at the air with his right hand, and a burst of brilliant golden light erupted. The Imperial Dao Breaking Universe Spear instantly fell into his palm and was firmly held in his hand.

The spear trembled slightly, and an aura of imperial power flowed around him. Su Mu leaped forward, spear in hand, and charged straight towards the six Heavenly Wolf Gods in the sky.

High in the sky, Mo Qi's pupils shrank, his face filled with astonishment. The other five Heavenly Wolf Clan Gods also wore expressions of disbelief.

To their utter surprise, the Heavenly Palace actually sent only Su Mu to meet the enemy.

As Su Mu drew ever closer, Song Pingchao and Zhao Lei remained rooted to the spot, showing no sign of making a move. Everyone finally confirmed that this absurd scene was indeed real.

At this moment, Moqi and his six companions were completely enraged.

Such behavior is not just contempt, it is blatant humiliation!

A mere Great God Realm cultivator dares to stand alone against six Heavenly Gods, not to mention that they have set up the Six Harmony Wolf God Formation to enhance their combat power. This move by the other party is undoubtedly too much!

"Boy, since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish and send you on your way!"

Mo Qi roared, activating the Six Harmonies Wolf God Formation. The formation instantly roared and activated, unleashing a highly refined crimson blade of light that pierced through the air, carrying a chilling killing intent, and slashed straight at Su Mu's face.

Faced with the terrifying crimson light falling at breakneck speed, Su Mu remained calm and composed, and suddenly thrust out the Imperial Dao Breaking Universe Spear in his hand.
