The elders in the room, at this moment, all could not help but sigh, shaking their heads in dismay.

Indeed, it is said that not even a tiger will eat its own cubs.

They now understood that what Fu Jiuxiao did was also an act of sheer helplessness!

Firstly, Fu Yu placing a message stone in their secret chamber was a great taboo, according to the Fu Family's family law, he surely was to be executed. Even if he was the family head's son, he could not escape such a punishment!

Rules are rules, but of those present, who would truly suggest that Fu Yu be dealt with according to the law? Yet they couldn't help but feel a bit of dissatisfaction with Fu Jiuxiao, thinking that he had spoiled his children and failed to teach them properly.

Next, just as Fu Jiuxiao had said, given Fu Yu's character, once Fu Feng took over and became the family head of the Fu Family, Fu Yu would definitely not accept it. He would surely use all the resources at his disposal to fight against Fu Feng.

Not to mention whether the Fu Family could survive such turmoil, even if it could, could Fu Yu possibly be a match for Fu Feng? The answer was clear in the hearts of all those present.

At that time, Fu Feng would not leave any way out for Fu Yu! He would never let him go!

Combining these two matters, rather than watching his son be annihilated in the future, it would be better to end him now. Keeping a second primordial spirit, there would still be a chance to cultivate anew in the future. Even if he could not reach higher levels, at least... with Fu Yu no longer a threat, Fu Feng would certainly leave him a way out, allowing him to live a lifetime as a wealthy man.

As for whether Fu Yu would accept this willingly? That was not within Fu Jiuxiao's consideration. With things like this, what more could you want?

After that, Fu Jiuxiao personally contacted Fu Feng using a message stone, and the two communicated for an hour.

Subsequently, the Fu Family announced to the world that the family head Fu Jiuxiao was stepping down, and Fu Feng, the family's most outstanding member, would inherit the position of family head. At the same time, Fu Feng's father, Second Elder Fu Jiuling, became the main elder managing the family affairs, temporarily acting on behalf of Fu Feng in exercising the powers of the family head.

At the same time, as the new head of the Fu Family, Fu Feng issued his first announcement to the entire Immortal Realm: restoring Auntie Fu Xiaodie's status as the legitimate daughter of the Fu Family, and inviting Fu Xiaodie to become an honorary elder of the Fu Family...

A colossal entity in the Immortal Realm underwent earth-shattering changes in a very short period of time.

As for the death of Fu Yu, it only circulated within a small circle. Many more were directing their attention beyond the Fu Family—towards the Demon Lord and Chu Mo, the master and disciple duo!

With the Elixir Sect making its stance known, the other two top families in the Immortal Realm, the Luo Family and the Zhuge Family, also issued an extremely forceful statement. This threw the turmoil in the Immortal Realm into an utterly uncontrollable state.

"I am the family head of the Luo Family, a collateral branch of the Heavenly Realm's Luo Family, and I have a blood feud with Chu Mo. In the face of Chu Mo, who has colluded with the Demon Clan, the Luo Family swears to fight against the demon Chu Mo to the end!"

"I am the family head of the Zhuge Family, a collateral branch of the Heavenly Realm's Zhuge Family, and I have a blood feud with Chu Mo. In the face of Chu Mo, who has colluded with the Demon Clan, the Zhuge Family swears to fight against the demon Chu Mo to the end!"

The statements of the two families were exactly the same!

At the same time, these two huge families that had been entrenched in the Immortal Realm for countless years finally completely unveiled their ancestral lineage, revealing their connection with the great families of the Heavenly Realm to the public.

Previously, some had speculated about the relationship between these two families and the Luo and Zhuge families of the Heavenly Realm, but neither family had ever formally responded. After all, there are countless people with the same surnames in this world; over time, people grew accustomed to this and stopped being curious about their links to the Heavenly Realm.

Unexpectedly, these two top-tier powerhouses of the Immortal Realm were indeed branches of those two families from the Heavenly Realm.

Regarding the various grudges between the Luo and Zhuge families of the Heavenly Realm and Chu Mo, there were some who knew.

Chu Mo had a direct relationship with the death of Zhuge Changping, a young member of the Heavenly Realm's Zhuge Family. As for the enmity between the young emperor Zhuge Lang and Chu Mo, almost no one knew about it. But just one Zhuge Changping was enough!

In the eyes of the great clans of the Heavenly Realm, what status did Zhuge Changping hold? And what about Chu Mo? To put it plainly, in the Zhuge Family's view, the difference between Zhuge Changping and Chu Mo was like that between a prince and a poor boy from the countryside!

A noble son of a prestigious clan actually died because of a bumpkin from the Mortal Realm. It would be strange if the Zhuge Family could swallow such an affront.

And there was no need to mention the Luo Family, as to this day, the brothers Luo Ying and Luo Ning still did not dare to show their faces. That incident from years past had caused rifts between several great clans of the Heavenly Realm.

The relationship between the Luo Family and both the Qin Family and Dong Family was now very delicate. Although the Qin and Dong Families similarly disliked Chu Mo, what they hated even more... was the Luo Family!

Because the Luo Family had caused them to lose face on a massive scale and, likewise, lose two exceptionally brilliant top-tier Daoist Realm bodies!

Everyone knew that Qin Shi and Dong Yu now stood in the same camp as Chu Mo, and it was almost impossible for them to return to their respective families.

But on the Luo Family's side, they had every reason to detest Chu Mo as well.

Thus, this time, both the Luo Family and Zhuge Family, with their branches in the Immortal Realm, were somewhat impatient.

They did not want to wait for Chu Mo to ascend to the Heavenly Realm before dealing with him personally, because they had faintly sensed that many prestigious and highly esteemed old emperors in the Heavenly Realm were somewhat... speaking up for Chu Mo!

This was not a good sign, although they could not fathom why. But they definitely did not want to see Chu Mo grow strong, did not want to see him successfully ascend to the Heavenly Realm.

The Luo and Zhuge Families in the Immortal Realm, with the backing of their clans in the Heavenly Realm, could obtain countless resources, dharma instruments from the Heavenly Realm, and various powerful cultivation methods, and so on. The Luo and Zhuge Families in the Heavenly Realm did not believe that, with the full strength of two top clans from the Immortal Realm and their support from behind, they could not eliminate a mere Chu Mo!

Not to mention, the deeper significance of this matter also related to Lingdan Hall!

The Elixir Sect... this branch of Lingdan Hall in the Immortal Realm, had this time openly stood on Chu Mo's side.

Thus, this battle also vaguely... counted as an indirect confrontation between the Zhuge Family and Lingdan Hall!

This was called probing!

If Chu Mo and the Elixir Sect were defeated, it would mean that the day the Zhuge Family could overturn Lingdan Hall... was not far off!

......

On the vast expanse of the Prairie, a great river meandered across like a jade ribbon, winding its way through.

Under the setting sun, the afterglow and lone wild ducks flew together, the autumn water shared the sky's hue.

Chu Mo and Qi Xiaoyu sat hand in hand on the riverbank, watching the sunset gradually disappear at the edge of the Prairie. They took in the brilliant evening glow spread across the sky. With Qi Xiaoyu leaning on Chu Mo's shoulder, she said softly, "Both the Luo Family and the Zhuge Family have joined in, huh? Will the Elixir Sect... go all out?"

"They will," said Chu Mo. "It's not just because of me."

"The Elixir Sect is Lingdan Hall's branch in the Immortal Realm. The Luo Family and the Zhuge Family have powerful backers in the Heavenly Realm as well. This battle has already slipped from our control," said Qi Xiaoyu, with a flicker of darkness in her eyes, in a low voice. "I don't like this feeling! I want to have everything... within my own control!"

Chu Mo glanced subtly at Qi Xiaoyu and smiled gently, "Well then, let's build a great power when we get back!"

"Not 'let's,' but 'I will,'" said Qi Xiaoyu with conviction and determination. "I am the queen! And you, you are the queen's man! An extraordinary powerhouse who stands tall in the world. You are a lone wolf, not needing to be entangled by anyone or anything. You are who you are!"
