Yin Hao, the Ancestor of the Yin Family, was a late-stage Daluo Golden Immortal who had existed for countless years. His fame within the Yin Yang Sect was formidable.

"Not good!"

"Ancestor, something terrible has happened!"

Suddenly, a panicked voice arose as Yin Yu, the Head of the Yin Family, hurried over.

"What's the panic about?"

Yin Hao's face was gloomy, his eyes flowing with endless murderous intent.

"Ancestor, Ancestor Yin Kun, he—"

"I know!"

Yin Hao's heavy voice echoed as his eyes gazed at the sky.

A Path that only Daluo Golden Immortals and above could see had suddenly collapsed! That was the Path of a Daluo Golden Immortal. The collapse of the Path implied death, meaning the extinction of one's Dao. That was how it happened.

"Ancestor, what do we do now..." Yin Yu asked, trembling and weak.

Although he was the Head of the Yin Family, he was merely a Half-step Daluo Golden Immortal, responsible only for managing the family's trivial affairs and incapable of deciding on major issues.

"What can we do? The enemy easily captured Yin Kun and killed him so effortlessly. Their strength is clearly extraordinary!" Yin Hao's face was sullen as he rebuked, "Didn't you say they went to deal with a youngster named Hongmeng? It's rumored that a powerful figure backing him, without even showing themselves, severely injured Silver Sea with the Innate Treasure Divine Sword. Is such a power something we can afford to provoke? The Yin Yang Sect hasn't made a rash move without fully understanding the opponent's background. Yet you dared to seek revenge privately? Do you truly think yourselves invincible in this world?!"

The Yin Yang Sect also had many internal factions, among which the Yin Family was a strong lineage, but not the strongest. The foundations of the Yin Yang Sect were far beyond what his Yin Family could compare with. He himself was the strongest in his family, merely a late-stage Daluo Golden Immortal possessing only one Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure. He did not dare seek revenge. As long as he lived, the family perishing would be of no consequence. After countless years, familial affections meant little to him.

"The Ancestor's lesson is well taken; I will heed your wisdom," Yin Yu said, not daring to contradict. In fact, he had no authority in this matter. Seeking revenge had been Yin Kun's decision; he simply couldn't stop it. Of course, Yin Jiao was his son, and he naturally desired revenge.

"Just wait. To my knowledge, the Grand Elder of the Yin Yang Sect is about to advance to the Primordial Golden Immortal realm. As soon as the Grand Elder breaks through, it will be time for revenge!"

Yin Hao left these words and then disappeared without a trace. With Yin Kun dead, there was no point in him staying.

And with the fall of Yin Kun, quite a storm brewed across the entire Eastern Xuan Region. A Daluo Golden Immortal had died—an event that hadn't occurred in a hundred thousand years!

When the Daluo Jinxian Warriors of the Yin Yang Sect learned that Yin Kun had died, some took delight in his misfortune while others were filled with righteous indignation. Yet, no one proposed seeking revenge. What a joke. Without a clear understanding of the opponent's strength, they were unwilling to risk themselves.

「Yaochi.」

A Daluo Golden Immortal has fallen... Could it be the one involved in the conflict at Maple Leaf Pavilion earlier? Ji Yue gazed towards Maple Leaf Pavilion from Yaochi, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.

"Aunt, do you think Second Senior Brother's death is related to this?" Ji Hongxia asked.

Maple Leaf Pavilion wasn't far from Yaochi, and a terrifying battle had just taken place there; Jinya had died soon after. To call it a coincidence would be too far-fetched.

"Very likely." Ji Yue nodded slightly. Then, as if recalling something, she said, "Hongxia, I remember Jinya was quite fond of you. He pursued you, right?"

"But I didn't like him." Ji Hongxia pouted. Then she suddenly raised her head. "Aunt Ji Yue, are you suggesting Jinya's death is related to Hongmeng?"

"But even if Hongmeng knew Jinya liked me, he wouldn't kill him just for that, would he?"

"That's not necessarily true!" Ji Yue smiled seductively. "Let me tell you, men can be magnanimous at times, but they can also be very petty, especially regarding their women. You must understand, men are creatures with strong possessive instincts! Especially when it involves a femme fatale like you!"

Ji Hongxia shot her a glance. "You're the femme fatale! You say that as if you know men so well! I believe Hongmeng wouldn't kill Jinya over that," Ji Hongxia stated confidently. She had faith in her judgment.

Ji Yue laughed. "What if Jinya provoked him first?"

"That..." Ji Hongxia hesitated. If Jinya had indeed taken the initiative to provoke Hongmeng, his demise would be understandable.

"It's just that the disturbance at Maple Leaf Pavilion clearly wasn't caused by a single Daluo Golden Immortal. If one of them was Hongmeng's powerful backer, then who was the other? Jinya's family is just a minor clan; could he really have found a Daluo Golden Immortal to help him?"

Ji Yue's gaze turned distant as she said, "I don't know about that. Besides, these are all just speculations. If you hadn't been ambushed, would you even know that Hongmeng has a Daluo Golden Immortal or someone stronger backing him?"

"That's true." Ji Hongxia nodded. Ostensibly, Jinya couldn't have found a Daluo Golden Immortal to help him. But what hidden forces he might have commanded, even they might not know.

"I'll go ask." Ji Hongxia excused herself and headed to Zizhu Residence.

Sensing something, Hongmeng emerged from God's Kingdom and opened the Zizhu Residence formation. Accompanied by a fragrant breeze, Ji Hongxia's voluptuous figure gracefully approached.

Hongmeng's strong arms instantly embraced the enchantress's soft, tender body.

Her skin was as smooth and delicate as a newborn's—fair, radiant, and sparkling. Her lovely form was astonishingly alluring.

Her slender waist, full and soft, swirled lightly, undulating like that of a beautiful serpent—mesmerizingly enchanting.
