The annihilation of the Kong Family raised high concerns throughout the North Sea. As a native family of the North Sea, the Kong Family had many martial artists under its wing.
Yet, such a family was silently wiped out, making the entire Public Security Bureau even busier.
Originally, Li Hu was already overwhelmed with the matters of the Three Deceits Cult, and now he had no time at all.
"Damn it!! Don't let me find out who did this, or I'll take their head off!!"
"I was already fed up with chasing the Three Deceits Cult every day, and now I have to deal with this mess as well!"
Li Hu sat across from Su Tu, and couldn't help but voice his complaints.
Hearing Tiger Brother's complaints, Su Tu couldn't help but give an awkward smile, since he was the person Tiger Brother wanted to decapitate.
"Sigh! But as for the Kong Family, it's better off gone, their end is quite a relief."
"Junior Brother, did you know, during the investigation of the Kong Family, I found that the Kong Family was completely obsessed with money. Having rooted in the North Sea for many years, they were involved in various industries. The Kong Family only took and never gave, and most of their trades require no capital."
"No capital trades?"
Upon hearing this, Su Tu's curiosity was piqued.
Li Hu gave a bitter smile: "The Kong Family made their fortune from land trades, and even before the Martial Arts Dao was spread on the Ancestor Star, the Kong Family was a family of martial artists. Do you think they needed capital for business?"
"Using force to suppress and confiscate by force."
Su Tu forced out four words from his mouth.
"Yes, according to my investigation, in recent years, thousands of families have been driven to despair by the Kong Family, not to mention those owed wages."
Li Hu shook his head helplessly.
Su Tu did not delve further; knowing a little, he could envision the path the Kong Family took to amass their wealth.
The hidden chamber with walls lined with bricks, built upon blood, sweat, and lives....
"Forget it, with the eradication of the collective clan, the old man's spirits are high, he recently left the Star River to visit friends for a few days, during this time, Sister Xiao is in charge, you must be careful."
When Master Zhou discovered that his students had annihilated the collective clan behind his back, he was stricken with a complex expression on his aged face.
Then it seemed as if a weight had been lifted, and the furrows on his old brow lightened.
It showed just how much the fall of his senior brother back then had impacted and guilted Master Zhou.
This was why Su Tu and others did not want to disclose the truth.
Now that the elder's Life Fire was dim, with this Heart Knot unraveled, he could find some relief. If he learned that his senior brother's fall was due to an attempt to reopen the Dao Lineage back then,
the elder would likely suffer an unbearable blow.
After untying the Heart Knot, the elder's mood had obviously improved, departing the Ancestor Star to find an old friend.
After a bit more chatting with Li Hu.
Tiger Brother took a phone call and left in a hurry, evidently indispensable to the Public Security Bureau.
"The Three Deceits Cult has been too quiet lately."
Su Tu lowered his eyes, not because he held the Three Deceits Cult in high regard, but because his worker hadn't spread the Dao in days.
This seemed somewhat unreasonable.
After all, after being converted by Xue Yue, in their eyes, Su Tu was the only True God, with all others being false gods, and spreading the True God was more important than life to them.
Su Tu also tried using faith to call the Hua Family brothers.
But he sensed a Power of Faith far greater than his own, obscuring his call.
Thus, he judged that the Three Deceits Cult was planning a big move.
"Is it related to that apostle..."
Su Tu frowned in thought. Previously, he had obliterated an apostle's remnant thought in his Heart and Spirit, but finally felt that its remaining parts had appeared in the North Sea.
And recently the Three Deceits Cult has been eerily quiet.
This clearly signaled preparations for a big move.
"What are you thinking about!"
As Su Tu pondered, Xiao's voice reached his ears, clad in ink green today, her whole being lively and mischievous.
She looked at Su Tu with a mischievous smile.
"Nothing, just daydreaming."
Su Tu said with a grin.
"Well, stop daydreaming, it's time to focus on serious business!"
Upon hearing this, Su Tu immediately understood Xiao's intention.
What they called serious business was what Xiao had previously mentioned at the training camp.
Striving for the Celestial Pride List, gaining the Martial Arts Vision blessing, and preparing to reopen the Dao Lineage.
"Senior Sister, did you secure a qualification?"
Xiao smiled mysteriously, then flipped her hand, instantly revealing a small golden scroll in her hand.
On this scroll, Su Tu sensed an immense Power of the Heart and Spirit.
As if countless formidable figures stood in a realm, or perhaps they bore a realm on their shoulders!!
That realm was not in this world, yet it protected the Human Race, protecting everything!
At the sight of this scroll, Su Tu felt his Heart and Spirit were in tumult.
"This is 'qualification'!"
"What you now feel is the [Other Shore], the ultimate Sacred Realm carved by the Martial God, amplified by countless Human Race warriors of later generations."
Xiao spoke to Su Tu with a cheerful smile.
"The Sacred Realm is incredibly mysterious; you will know its mystery once you cross the Sea of Suffering."
"However, Heart and Spirit Cultivation is not to be rushed; it belongs to the realm of geniuses; step by step is fundamental."
"Alright, quickly link with the qualification so you can start contending on the Celestial Pride List."
Xiao looked at Su Tu with anticipation.
Yet, at that moment, even as Su Tu gazed at the surging golden scroll, he was still reluctant to reach out his hand.
