"Ahem... Saint Emperor Realm Ninth Stage... It's not that bad, no need to panic."

Zhao Mu took a deep breath and asked, "How long does it take to get from the Thousand Thunder Sect to our Zhao family?"

"With the speed of a Saint Emperor, they can arrive in three days at the fastest."

Zhao Qi said, "Young Patriarch, we should return to the Zhao family's ancestral land as soon as possible. At least there is the lingering aura of the Great Emperor left by our ancestors guarding it. Even if the leader of the Thousand Thunder Sect comes looking for us, he won't dare to act rashly."

"No rush. Now that we're here, let's take the herbs from the cave first. There are also several corpses of Jiehua Sect disciples in there, so let's deal with them as well." Zhao Mu said.

"Jiehuamen?"

Zhao Qi was stunned.

Isn't this the Thousand Thunder Sect? How come there's another Jiehua Sect?

Could it be that the young patriarch had already experienced a battle in the cave before?

Everyone did not dare to delay and hurriedly followed Zhao Mu into the cave.

When Zhao Qi and others saw the body of Jiehua Sect elder Hong Ming, they were completely shocked.

"It's actually that old vicious ghost Hong Ming!!"

Seeing that Zhao Qi recognized the old man's origin at a glance, Zhao Mu was slightly curious: "Do you know him?"

Zhao Qi nodded and said, "Young Clan Leader, the two most powerful forces surrounding our Zhao family's territory are the Thousand Thunder Sect and the Jiehua Sect."

"The Thousand Thunder Sect is okay. It's a little far away from us, so we usually don't interfere with each other."

"But the Jiehua Sect is different. They are a group of utterly evil cultivators, committing murder and arson, and committing all sorts of evil. Before, when our ancestor was alive, they didn't dare to attack openly, but recently they've been frequently active on the Zhao family's borders, and they've become even more brazen."

When Zhao Qi saw the corpse of the Jiehua Sect's elder, he immediately realized that the complete destruction of Zhuyuan Town must have been the work of the Jiehua Sect's men.

Wait...isn't Hong Ming a powerful Saint King? How come he died at the hands of the young patriarch?

Just how powerful is the young patriarch?

"Let's gather the herbs first. I will personally settle the account with Jiehua Sect."

Zhao Mu said in a cold voice, and the aura he unconsciously exuded made all the members of the Zhao family tremble with fear.

Half an hour later, the spiritual-grade medicinal herbs in the cave were basically looted, and some spiritual-grade minerals were also collected, which was an extra gain.

The bodies of the Jiehua Sect disciples were also dealt with, and Zhao Yuan and Zhao Qi also took the blood pill away.

These blood pills are made from the blood of 30,000 people in Zhuyuan Town. We cannot let them fall into the hands of the Jiehua Sect again.

When leaving the cave, Zhao Mu looked at the corpses scattered all over the mountains. After thinking for a moment, he took decisive action and used the Sword of Covering the Sky to cut a ten-meter-deep pit in the mountain stream. Then he ordered his tribesmen to collect all the corpses, bury them in the pit, and erect a tombstone to commemorate the dead.

After dealing with all this, it was already dark.

Everyone then boarded the Sky Boat, returned to Zhuyuan Town, and returned to the Zhao family's ancestral land via the teleportation array.

After returning to the ancestral home, Zhao Yuan and Zhao Qi immediately went to meet the clan leader to report what happened in Zhuyuan Town.

It was the first time that Zhao Mu saw such an angry expression on his father's face.

Even when he was humiliated at the Su family last time, he had never been so angry.

"What a Jiehua Sect, what a Thousand Thunder Sect! Sooner or later, I will make you pay with blood!"

"Clan leader, the Thousand Thunder Sect's leader will definitely come looking for us in the next few days. The most urgent thing is to consider how to take precautions."

Zhao Li frowned.

Although he had never dealt with the Thousand Thunder Sect head-on, he knew a thing or two about it.

The leader of the Thousand Thunder Sect is named Wang Heming. He possesses the golden gifted Thunder Holy Body. He can achieve twice the result with half the effort when practicing thunder-attributed martial arts. His strength is extremely domineering and fierce, and he is hard to find an rival in the Holy Emperor Realm.

To be honest, if Wang Heming really came to him, Zhao Li was not sure whether he could suppress him with the lingering aura of the emperor left by the ancestor.

"Mu'er, what exactly is that blood thunder bead that makes the Thousand Thunder Sect attach so much importance to it?" Zhao Li looked over and asked.

Zhao Mu took out the Blood Thunder Pearl and said, "This is the inner elixir of the Nine-winged Thunder Howling Phoenix, an imperial-level monster."

"Nine-winged Thunder Roaring Phoenix?!"

Everyone present was shocked.

No wonder the Thousand Thunder Sect values ​​this blood thunder bead so much. It turns out to be a top-grade thunder-attribute spiritual essence. For the Thousand Thunder Sect, which specializes in thunder-attribute martial arts, this is a priceless treasure that can only be found by chance.

Maybe Wang Heming is counting on it to break through to the Saint Emperor realm.

"Mu'er, you should keep this blood thunder bead. If used properly, it may allow you to break through to the Saint Emperor realm in a short period of time. As for the Thousand Thunder Sect, your father will find a way to deal with it. Although Wang Heming is very powerful, the Zhao family is not someone we cannot afford to provoke." Zhao Li said firmly.

Although it is not wise to anger a peak Saint Emperor Realm expert given the Zhao family's current situation, since the incident has already happened, they can only face it.

This is a danger, but also an opportunity.

As long as the Blood Thunder Pearl is kept, it will be of great benefit to the Zhao family.

Zhao Mu nodded, then took out a storage ring and handed it to Zhao Li.

"Father, these are some of the spoils I captured. I've kept the ones that are useful to me, and I'll leave the rest to you. I think they will also help boost the overall strength of the Zhao family."

Zhao Li nodded with satisfaction, opened the ring and took a look, then was stunned.

It took him a while to come back to his senses.

"Mu'er...did you plunder the Jiehua Sect's treasure house?"

Zhao Mu chuckled and briefly explained the matter between Hong Zhen and Qu Furong.

Zhao Li was speechless when he learned that this incident was actually instigated by a pair of adults.

But when he thought about how these two groups of people had worked so hard and ended up helping Zhao Mu, he felt that this kid of his was really lucky. He had gained such a huge benefit on his first trip out for training.

Zhao Mu did not stay long. After finishing the conversation, he returned to his residence immediately.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw Su Qianqian still practicing with her eyes closed.

The imperial-grade Yuanling Stone that Zhao Mu had left with her had been completely consumed by her.

Wow, she used up the amount that others couldn’t use up in years in just one day.

"Husband."

When Su Qianqian heard Zhao Mu's footsteps, she immediately stood up to greet him and gently and affectionately took Zhao Mu's arm.

"Did you miss me?" Zhao Mu smiled and held Su Qianqian's cheeks. Under the squeeze of his big hands, Su Qianqian's little mouth began to purr. It was soft and felt very kissable.

Su Qianqian nodded vigorously.

She was still a little uncomfortable with the fact that Zhao Mu was not by her side during her practice today.

"You're so good. Come and let your husband kiss you."

"And a hug."

"Madam, you are so greedy, but since I love my wife, I will hold her for a while longer."

Although the two of them are not yet at the stage of an old married couple, at least they are not as awkward as when they first started getting together. They get along even better, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as inseparable.

As they hugged each other, their eyes met, as if sparks were about to fly.

Without any extra words, the two of them rolled onto the bed consciously.

"Madam, relax. Let your husband love you well today."

"Um……"
