"Haha, kid, see that? This is the confidence of my Divine Mechanism Hall. You think you can cause trouble here? You'll never succeed."
The temple master laughed wildly, full of confidence and utterly unafraid.
Not only are there so many experts, but he himself is also a grandmaster.
"I gave you a chance."
Ye Qiu slowly clenched his fist.
"It won't be long before you beg me to give you a chance." The Palace Master said disdainfully, "Five years ago, your Ye family was wiped out. Indeed, someone wanted to take advantage of the situation and destroy it, because a powerful figure suspected that your grandfather knew some of the truth about the Eight Desolations Map."
But it's no exaggeration to say that the destruction of the Ye family didn't cause much of a stir. The big shots didn't care at all; a small family like that was gone and that was that.
No one expected that some members of the Ye family would slip through the net and cause some trouble upon their return. But, you can only stop here.
"You will pay the price for your stupidity."
Ye Qiu was already planning to make a move.
"Kill him."
The Lord of the Divine Machine Hall also lost his patience and immediately gave an order.
In an instant, a grandmaster and sixteen great martial artists rushed toward Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu sneered, then suddenly raised his fist and threw a punch.
Boom!
Golden true energy erupted from Ye Qiu's fist, transforming into seventeen beams of light that shot towards the seventeen people rushing towards him.
hiss hiss hiss...
Golden beams of light, like divine blades, easily pierced the hearts, throats, and skulls of the seventeen people...
In the blink of an eye, the seventeen people fell almost simultaneously, all dead, including the grandmaster, who was also instantly killed without any chance to fight back.
Upon seeing this, the Lord of the Divine Mechanism Hall felt a chill run down his spine and his scalp tingle.
"Stop him."
The temple master hurriedly addressed the others in the Divine Mechanism Hall.
These people were all ordinary citizens with no fighting ability. They dared not stop Ye Qiu; their legs went weak with fear, and they didn't dare move.
Ye Qiu walked towards the Palace Master, his expression cold and stern: "If you speak now, you still have a chance to live."
"I'll fight you to the death."
The Palace Master channeled his inner energy and charged towards Ye Qiu.
But in just one exchange, the Palace Master was suppressed and trampled under Ye Qiu's feet.
"Will you tell me or not?"
Ye Qiu asked in a deep voice.
"Say what the hell." The Palace Master laughed wildly: "You little beast, do you think you can destroy my Divine Machine Palace? Let me tell you, this is just a branch palace in Qianzhou."
Furthermore, you'll never know who was behind it all. Even if you uncover some clues, the closer you get to the truth, the closer you'll be to death. Haha, you might even die without knowing why, without even knowing who killed you.
"Are you really not afraid of death?"
Ye Qiu was filled with murderous intent.
"What is there to fear in death?" the Palace Master said through gritted teeth. "You little beast, it's your Ye family's fault for being wiped out. Listen to me, even if I die, I won't tell you any information. I just want to make you suffer, hahaha."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Palace Master trembled violently.
The next second, Ye Qiu saw black blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Ye Qiu hurriedly crouched down to check, only to find that the person beneath his feet was no longer breathing.
This caused Ye Qiu's emotions to fluctuate considerably.
This person would rather commit suicide by poisoning than reveal the truth.
It seems the person behind this is indeed someone with an impressive background.
Ye Qiu took a deep breath, suppressing his boiling anger, and looked at the others in the Divine Mechanism Hall: "Does any of you know anything about the Eight Desolations Diagram?"
"I...I don't know."
What is the Eight Desolations Map?
"Young Master Ye, please give up. Even if we knew, we wouldn't dare to say anything, because our families would suffer if we did."
"Oh, then you can all die." Unable to control his killing intent, Ye Qiu wiped out all the living people in the area, leaving no one alive.
...
An hour later, Ye Qiu returned to Murong Qingchen's villa.
Seeing Ye Qiu's unpleasant expression, Murong Qingchen knew that Ye Qiu's trip had been fruitless.
"Junior brother, have you found the Divine Mechanism Hall?"
Murong Qingchen asked tentatively.
“I found them, but they all seemed to be someone’s henchmen. The temple master even preferred to commit suicide by poison rather than reveal the truth, so I simply wiped them all out.”
Ye Qiu was in a bad mood and clenched his teeth.
"You were too hasty," Murong Qingchen said earnestly. "You underestimated how terrifying the enemy is. If you want to find out the truth, you must not be impatient. Otherwise, you will end up like this time, not only failing to find anything but also cutting off a clue."
"Senior sister, what do you think I should do?" Ye Qiu asked in a deep voice.
"Be patient, don't be hasty. You've already wiped out the three major families of Qianzhou, the prefect of the prefectural government, and the Shenji Hall. The commotion you've caused is considerable, and you've surely caught the attention of some important figures."
Next, a fierce storm will rage, and this is your opportunity. Seize it, fish out the big fish amidst the raging wolves, and perhaps uncover the truth.
"Murong Qingchen said softly."
"I understand." Ye Qiu said seriously, "I will kill all the enemies who come against me. The bigger the storm, the better. In this way, I will surely make the mastermind hiding in the shadows think about getting rid of me, and lure him out step by step."
"Junior brother, I didn't mean for you to..."
"Senior sister, it's decided then. I'm going to kill until the mastermind can't sit still anymore and comes out on his own."
