The Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue has died!

Executed publicly on the street!

This news shocked everyone present, many remained engrossed in the news for a long time, unable to recover their composure.

And the one who killed Jiu Jue was none other than Ye Qiu from Earth.

At this moment, Ye Qiu had already disappeared, no one dared to stop him, vanishing from everyone’s sight.

Then, powerful individuals arrived and took away the corpse of the Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue.

Just an hour had passed, and the news of Ye Qiu killing Jiu Jue spread like lightning.

Even in some small places, barren lands, people were discussing this major event that occurred on the ancestral land.

The Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue had quite a reputation on the ancestral land; one must know that the cosmic-level powers rarely appear, spending long periods in closed-door cultivation, but Saints are different, they are the face of a sect, and for certain matters, the power of a Saint is often required.

As the Supreme Saint of the Taiyi Divine Sect, Jiu Jue would naturally appear often to execute certain decisions of the sect.

But from now on, there will no longer be the Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue on this ancestral land.

A Supreme Saint possibly advancing into cosmic realms was publicly executed, delivering a hard slap to the Taiyi Divine Sect.

In broad daylight, even if the Taiyi Divine Sect wanted to suppress the news, they were powerless to do so.

They couldn’t possibly silence everyone present.

What will the Taiyi Divine Sect do?

The identity of the person who killed the Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue—Ye Qiu—is well known, and many have set their eyes on the Taiyi Divine Sect.

A large part of the populace believes that Ye Qiu is poised for a life-and-death struggle with the Taiyi Divine Sect and that the sect will strike back fiercely.

It is very likely that cosmic-level powers will be alarmed to annihilate Ye Qiu.

However, as time passed, people found that the Taiyi Divine Sect had no reactions to this matter; not even a Saint was deployed, let alone cosmic-level powers, as if nothing had happened.

Why?

How could the Taiyi Divine Sect remain indifferent; after all, wasn’t the Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue an elder of theirs, executed publicly without uttering a word, too mysterious.

Many were puzzled.

Some noticed that not only did the Taiyi Divine Sect show no response, but given Ye Qiu’s previous relations with the Donghua Sect and Shadow, they should have responded upon learning Ye Qiu was on the ancestral land.

Yet, mysteriously, these major sects and forces appeared to have agreed not to act against Ye Qiu.

Highly unusual.

Several realized there must be unknown events behind this, otherwise no one would refrain from taking action against Ye Qiu.

When unexpected events arise, there must be strange factors!

Hidden in the darkness, Ye Qiu and Zhuang Miao Shan stood on a pavilion, surprised by the reactions of various sects.

Logically, Jiu Jue’s public execution would be a slap at the Taiyi Divine Sect, yet the sect showed no reaction, not even deploying Martial Artists to search for Ye Qiu.

Why is this?

The two were equally bewildered.

In fact, the two were unaware that the Taiyi Divine Sect, Donghua Sect, and even Shadow, knowing Ye Qiu was on the ancestral land, took no action mainly due to the information brought back by cosmic-level powers returning from the Path of the Stars.

The Lord of the Ancient City intervened to save Ye Qiu, ejecting them from the Path of the Stars, implying something that required consideration by major sects.

If it were only Ye Qiu himself, even with Zhuang Miao Shan, it wouldn’t be difficult for forces like the Taiyi Divine Sect and Donghua Sect to deal with them, as they had many cosmic-level powerhouses.

What troubled them most was the unclear attitude of the Lord of the Ancient Star City in saving Ye Qiu.

If the Lord of the Ancient Star City had deep ties with Ye Qiu, taking action would mean making the Lord of the Ancient Star City their enemy.

For these sects, that is not a trivial matter.

Few have seen how terrifying the Lord of the Ancient Star City is, but he has lived for a very long time, even longer than the millennia-old sects on the ancestral land, and many sect leaders and cosmic-level powers heard of his deity-like existence from ancient texts in their youth.

He is also the sole figure who feels unchallenged by the Celestial Palace.

This Lord of the Ancient Star City once traversed countless life planets in the universe, establishing the Gate of Life and Death leading to the Path of the Stars, inviting all outstanding talents from the universe there every few years. The Path of the Stars is the ultimate place to hone talents, and everyone who knows of the Gate of Life and Death chooses to tread upon it.

To put it simply, the major sects currently not moving against Ye Qiu are mainly trying to ascertain if acting against Ye Qiu would provoke the Lord of the Ancient Star City.

As long as they confirm that killing Ye Qiu would not invite the Lord of the Ancient Star City’s wrath, various forces would immediately send people to search for Ye Qiu’s whereabouts.

Since no one can be certain now, no one dares to lead the charge, because once the Lord of the Ancient Star City is provoked, it would be a tremendous catastrophe.

If such an existence were to act, how many on the ancestral land could rival him?

The cost is too great, so the concerns multiply, and in such a potentially life-threatening issue, the Taiyi Divine Sect had rather lost some face, if only to prevent the sect’s obliteration.

Sects that have grudges with Ye Qiu are waiting; they are observing, awaiting the results they will soon see.

On this day, people from the Celestial Palace began appearing across regions.

People discovered that while the Taiyi Divine Sect hadn’t moved, the Celestial Palace searched for Ye Qiu and posted a wanted notice.

At this time, they suddenly remembered Ye Qiu’s other identity—of the Du Gu Clan!

Ye Qiu is a descendant of the Du Gu Clan, a matter revealed long ago on Earth.

Facing a descendant of the Du Gu Clan, the Celestial Palace couldn’t possibly lack interest in Ye Qiu, especially as Ye Qiu at such a young age was able to slay the Supreme Saint of Jiu Jue. In the eyes of the Celestial Palace, Ye Qiu is of immense value.

Simultaneously, Taiyi Divine Sect, Donghua Sect, Shadow, Hunyuan Sect—several sects with grudges against Ye Qiu—all observed the actions of the Celestial Palace.

The Celestial Palace taking action against Ye Qiu is undoubtedly the best method.

Primarily, the Celestial Palace’s strength is sufficiently formidable, and it is the only superpower not fearing the Lord of the Ancient Star City.

Through the Celestial Palace’s actions, they can ascertain how much the Lord of the Ancient Star City values Ye Qiu, while minimizing their own greatest risks, achieving their objectives.

This move of casting a stone to find a path accomplishes two goals.

Now, they just need to watch and wait patiently for the results.
