On Lu Mo Star, the atmosphere was heavy, as if all living beings felt destruction descending. Yu Tianjun was coldly questioning Wu Zixuan.
"I..." Qingqing didn't know what to say to help Wu Zixuan. She realized this group was incredibly powerful, so powerful that even her grandfather was far from reaching their level.
"Young Master! I... have nothing to explain." Wu Zixuan no longer knew what to say.
"Give me a reason..." Yu Tianjun asked coldly. Wu Zixuan wouldn't stop him without cause or provocation.
"A reason..." Wu Zixuan repeated. "She is my kinswoman, the descendant of my younger brother," he said firmly.
"Are you connected to the Martial God Academy?" Mo Lian said, as if a thought had just struck him.
"The Martial God is my father!" Wu Zixuan said solemnly. "She is also a descendant of the Martial God." He looked past Qingqing and asked, "You're called Wu Qingqing, aren't you?"
"Who are you? How do you know?" Wu Qingqing asked in surprise. The Wu family had rarely appeared ever since that great-grandfather disappeared more than twenty thousand years ago, and the Grand Elder had almost gone into hibernation.
"I am Wu Zixuan. Is your grandfather Wu Zishi? The Golden Origin Fist is his ultimate technique," Wu Zixuan said naturally. Although there were many people in their Wu family, their respective ultimate techniques were enough for them to recognize each other.
"Wu Zixuan..." Wu Qingqing was a little dazed, then recalled. Wasn't that great-grandfather called Wu Zixuan? He had disappeared more than twenty thousand years ago. "You are my great-grandfather?" she asked with some uncertainty.
"Heh! You could say that. In my generation, I am the most senior." Wu Zixuan looked at her with a hint of kindness. Initially, he thought she was just a distant descendant, but he didn't expect her to be a direct descendant of the main branch of the Wu family.
"Greetings, Great-Grandfather!" Wu Qingqing immediately bowed her head respectfully and said. She had temporarily forgotten the situation.
"You are the Little Martial Saint! I should have realized it sooner," Mo Lian said gravely.
"Ah! This is not simple!" a peculiar Saint God said. A descendant had attacked the Young Master and injured him, putting Wu Zixuan in an awkward spot.
"Who is the Martial God? What about his descendants? If the King of Hell wants my life, I'll dig up his entire Underworld!" As everyone was looking solemnly at Wu Zixuan, Yu Tianjun's cold voice rang out. He didn't care who it was; if they wanted to put him to death, they shouldn't expect to get off easy.
"Young Master! The Martial God is one of the Ten Great Saint Ancestors of the Human Race, and the Martial God Academy is one of the Twelve Super Powers; he is not to be trifled with," Jiang Yu said with some gravity. Her clan wasn't afraid of them either, but Yu Tianjun didn't possess that kind of power at the moment.
"The Ten Great Saint Ancestors of the Human Race..." Yu Tianjun's pupils contracted, then flashed. "So what?" He looked coldly at Wu Zixuan. "Aren't you going to move aside?" His killing intent had already flared.
"Young Master..." The other powerful cultivators were also a little startled. If they didn't know, then so be it, but now that they knew Wu Qingqing's background, Yu Tianjun still showed no apprehension. They were both shocked and admired Yu Tianjun's domineering and unyielding nature: "Whoever offends me shall die, no matter who they are."
"Haha, Wu Zixuan, if you don't step aside, don't blame me for being impolite," Ma Lian suddenly laughed heartily and said. Yu Tianjun was truly to his liking; his domineering way of doing things was perfect.
"I will follow the Young Master to the end. Even a Martial God wouldn't stoop to interfering in the affairs of juniors." The others also spoke up. Here, only Jiang Yu and Wu Zixuan belonged to a clan; the rest of them were rogue cultivators! If things went south, they could just run! The starry sky was vast; it wouldn't be easy for a Martial God to find them. Besides, what if they really turned hostile? They might not be as strong as a Martial God, but they still had the Young Master. As long as he escaped, who in this world could find him? Once he grew up, what could a Martial God do then? This was no joke! This was what they believed. Yu Tianjun would one day reach the pinnacle of the starry sky. They believed Wu Zixuan also realized this. This was not good; the Wu family would turn against Yu Tianjun. Not only that, but they would also become enemies with several other powerful, monstrously talented individuals known to few. The Wu family would surely face danger, even with a Martial God in their ranks.
"..." Wu Qingqing stared at these people in shock. Her great-grandfather was incredibly powerful, someone no one in the entire starry sky dared to offend. Yet these people, for the sake of this Young Master, were willing to become enemies with the Martial God Academy, willing to defy a Martial God.
"Young Master..." Wu Zixuan looked troubled. "I beg you, spare her life! I will follow you for the rest of my life, never resisting again..." He was truly terrified. The Wu family, unaware of how terrifying this person was, had provoked him. He feared that the Wu family's tens of thousands of clansmen would be buried along with them!
"..." Yu Tianjun looked up at the sky, lost in thought, before turning his gaze back to Wu Zixuan. "Go! Get as far away as you can! I don't want to see you. Take her with you. One day, when I have the ability to dissolve the Demonic Origin Seal, I will break it for you," Yu Tianjun said indifferently. If Wu Zixuan already had power yet couldn't abandon his familial loyalties, then there was no need for him to stay. He needed subordinates who would wholeheartedly protect his Yu family, even if he wasn't there for a single day.
"What..." Everyone was stunned. Didn't he just have an overwhelming killing intent, wanting to kill someone? How could he be so easy to talk to now?
"Young Master..." Wu Zixuan was also stunned, and then his face turned pale. Didn't his words mean that their master-servant relationship was severed? If it were anyone else, they might have been overjoyed, but Wu Zixuan was incredibly intelligent. Yu Tianjun had made it clear: one day, when he dominated, the Wu family would have no place in the starry sky, and might even face destruction. "I know I was wrong. As soon as I take her back, I will return to serve you..." Wu Zixuan knelt down, his voice trembling. He believed that this person would soon dominate the starry sky.
“Great-grandfather…” Seeing Wu Zixuan kneel, Wu Qingqing immediately rushed forward in alarm, wanting to help him up, but she couldn’t move him in the slightest. She immediately glared at Wu Tianjun, furious. “How can you be so excessive?” She understood some of what these people were saying, and some she didn’t. They had acknowledged this mysterious young man, Wu Tianjun, as their master, for reasons she didn’t know. Just now, she had accidentally injured him, and she was startled and frightened. This guy looked only twelve or thirteen, yet her grandfather’s attack had only injured him? How powerful was he? When he was injured, those powerful experts were startled and immediately wanted to kill her. Even the reputation of her great-grandfather didn’t scare them. If her great-grandfather hadn’t stopped them, she would surely be dead! Moreover, what was this Demonic Origin Seal that this guy used to control these people? She truly didn’t understand why her great-grandfather wasn’t happy that he wanted to destroy that seal; instead, he seemed terrified?
“Shut up!” Wu Zixuan snapped coldly. This descendant of his still didn’t realize what she had done.
“Great-grandfather…” Wu Qingqing saw Wu Zixuan’s face full of anger and immediately shut her mouth. She still didn’t know what she had done wrong.
“Heh heh! Wu Zixuan, I originally thought we were serving the same master…” Ma Lian said with a strange laugh.
“You should go…” Wu Tianjun glanced indifferently at Wu Qingqing, then spoke to Wu Zixuan before turning and leaving.
“Young Master…” Wu Zixuan felt a bitter pang in his heart.
“As for the rest of you, you can choose to leave now. If you do leave, it’s best not to spread any information about me to the outside world. Otherwise, even if I have to chase you beyond the star domain, I will kill you!” Wu Tianjun, who was walking away, suddenly turned back and said to the remaining people.
“Young Master, rest assured! Even if all of them leave, I will still stay by your side,” Ma Lian was the first to speak.
“Haha, we rogue cultivators here intend to become the Wu family’s protectors for this generation and follow Young Master,” several Saint God rogue cultivators immediately said.
“I will also follow you…” The usually quiet Wang Tiantian also spoke.
“Young Master, can you give me one year? I will return,” Jiang Yu said unexpectedly.
“You want to return to your family clan? It seems you are also an elder of the Jiang family, aren’t you?” Ma Lian said.
“That’s right! I should report back to my family clan, then I will rejoin you all,” Jiang Yu said firmly. She had decided to follow the Young Master for this lifetime!
“You may go! Once you’re done, come to the Yuanmu Star Forest, and I will meet you there,” Wu Tianjun glanced at her and said. He didn’t blame those who had family clans. “Let’s go, we should also take a look at the Yan Family Star.” Wu Tianjun, surprisingly, did not use a teleportation array but stepped into the air and left Luma Star. He didn’t spare Wu Zixuan a single glance.
“Great-grandfather… He’s gone! You can stand up now.” A moment later, Wu Qingqing finally broke free from the powerful, oppressive aura and spoke to Wu Zixuan. Wu Zixuan hadn’t moved at all since earlier.
"Sigh... You don't understand! Huh? Let's go quickly!" Wu Zixian sighed, looked at the sky, and then, as if realizing something, immediately grabbed Wu Jingjing and the two young girls, disappearing into the void and instantly reappearing outside Luma Star.
Outside Luma Star, Ma Lian and the others stopped, standing far away from Yu Tianjun. At this moment, a soft yet terrifying Dao charm emanated from him, spreading nearly five *zhang* around his body. His hands continuously formed hand seals, and then the Dao charm around his body contracted, pouring into his hands.
"Go! I'm afraid I must involve you all; it's better to keep you confined for a few decades than for you to lose your lives." Yu Tianjun threw the sphere of Dao charm toward Luma Star, his face immediately turning pale. The sphere fell onto Luma Star and rapidly expanded, enveloping the entire planet. He had no choice but to seal this planet because he didn't want to reveal his information. He believed that, at least in this era, no one could break through his power of reincarnation. Perhaps later, but by then, he wouldn't need to hide his identity anymore!
"This is..." Ma Lian and the others felt the terrifying Dao charm and truly didn't know what the Young Master was doing.
"I think he's sealing Luma Star. He doesn't want to reveal his identity, nor does he want to massacre everyone, so the best way is to prevent anyone from entering or leaving," Jiang Yu said, her voice trembling slightly. Anyone could destroy this planet, but sealing it was another matter entirely. This was a method that, it seemed, only Yu Tianjun could accomplish.
"Seal..." The remaining powerhouses also trembled, unable to help but exclaim in awe. The Young Master was still so young, yet despite his heaven-defying abilities, he was still incredibly merciful! Which cultivator hadn't killed countless people? It would have been enough to just destroy Guanxing City!
In the distance, Wu Zixuan stood in the void with the three young women, including Wu Qingqing, watching the events unfold. "Swear upon the Heavenly Dao!" Wu Zixuan said gravely to the three young women. "You must not reveal any information about the Young Master."
"I, Wu Qingqing (Wan Qingzhu, Yu Xiaoyun), swear..." The young women also trembled in fear. Only now did they realize how lucky they were, and how terrifying that mysterious young man, Yu Tian, truly was. What kind of being was he, after all? Even the most formidable monsters of the Starry Sky were far inferior to him.
"Let's go! I still need to return to Wushen Academy!" Wu Zixuan watched Yu Tianjun turn and leave for a moment, then waved his hand, sweeping up the three young women, and turned to depart.
