Chapter 8: Change of Fate

Yi Qianmo sat in the place where Yi Dajiang had been, holding Yi Dajiang’s head, which was still dripping blood.

And Yi Dajiang’s body lay in a pool of blood, no different from many other corpses.

The scene before them brought them great shock.

Most of the Yi family thought it was best for Yi Qianmo to stay with the Yu family, so that other families in Green Cloud City would have some caution.

Even if Yi Qianmo became useless, as long as he was alive, he was still the son-in-law of the Yu family, making the Yi family and the Yu family relatives.

But they never expected that Yi Qianmo would actually come back.

And as soon as he returned, he showed a very powerful attitude, first killing Lei Yuhu, who came to propose, and then exposing Yi Dajiang, the traitor from back then!

Everyone looked at the young boy before them and felt he was somewhat unfamiliar, yet on that youthful face, there were eyes that had seen much hardship.

When their gazes met his, no one dared to look him in the eye.

Especially those led by Third Elder Yi Dahe, who were all trembling with fear, regretting standing behind Yi Dajiang just moments ago.

Meanwhile, those who did not choose a side felt immensely relieved.

However, the threat of destruction still weighed heavily on everyone’s hearts. Yi Qianmo’s strength was indeed very strong, but… he had not yet reached the innate level.

There is a world of difference between being half-step innate and being truly innate.

"Qianmo, have you mastered the Great Yi Sword Technique?"

Just then, a voice broke the silence in the hall; it was his Second Uncle, Yi Tianyu.

"What Second Uncle said is right, I have already mastered the Great Yi Sword Technique…"

Afterward, Yi Qianmo publicly announced that he had secretly practiced the Great Yi Sword Technique in the Yu family, of course, he omitted the part about inheriting the sword technique.

Immediately, there was a lot of discussion in the hall. The Yi family is best known for their sword skills, but the secret of the Great Yi Sword Technique is only known to those who inherit the position of family leader.

Recently, when it was suddenly revealed that the Yi family had sword techniques close to those of the immortal families, the family was left puzzled.

"Qianmo, your strength… could it possibly defeat an innate being?" Yi Tianyang asked closely afterwards.

The two brothers sang in harmony, naturally to calm people’s hearts. Yi Qianmo returned with a big attack, making the entire Yi family feel anxious and uneasy.

As Yi Qianmo’s uncles, they naturally had to stand by their nephew; after all, Yi Qianmo’s father was their most respected eldest brother.

Yi Qianmo certainly understood their intentions; he had received his ancestor’s legacy, inherited the Sword Pill, and had a lifetime of memories etched in his mind. Although he had not fully absorbed it all, he was already very clever.

"Not just yet!"

Yi Qianmo replied.

As soon as he said this, a wave of sadness filled the hall. Everyone present, including Yi Tianyu, showed expressions of disappointment as thoughts of the family tragedy weighed heavily on their hearts.

"So, does that mean it will be possible in the future?"

Yi Tianyang, however, looked very surprised.

"If I enter the innate realm, I can be invincible in that state!"

Yi Qianmo replied calmly.

"Really?"

Yi Tianyu looked up and asked.

"Yes!"

Yi Qianmo nodded.

Just as he finished speaking, Yi Tianyu immediately said, "In this time of danger, the clan leader is in seclusion, and the family cannot be without a leader for a day. Qianmo has sacrificed thirteen years for the clan, and today he returns to defeat the enemies and eliminate the traitors. He is also the direct heir and has mastered the Great Yi Sword Technique. I believe that the family’s affairs should be handled by Qianmo!"

"I, Yi Tianyang, second that."

Yi Tianyang, dragging his tired body, walked up to Yi Qianmo, "Yi Tianyang greets the Acting Chief."

Although several clan elders felt unhappy, the situation was pressing. The Third Elder reacted quickly and stepped forward to bow, saying, "Yi Dahe greets the Acting Chief."

"I have seen the Acting Chief."

The high-ranking members of the Yi family in the hall all agreed.

"Since everyone wants me to be the Acting Chief, I will accept the role without hesitation."

Yi Qianmo glanced at everyone and was too lazy to be polite with them, "I can overlook what happened before, but… if anyone dares to conspire with outsiders and disrupt the family again, this will be their fate!"

After saying this, Yi Qianmo tossed the head he was holding, and it rolled right in front of Yi Dahe, scaring him back a few steps, almost causing him to fall.

Then, Yi Qianmo ordered to carry the bodies in the hall out to be buried, saying, "I must trouble the elders to stay in the guest room for now!"

As the orders were given, those who had just stood with Yi Tianyang were immediately put under house arrest, with Yi Dahe, the Third Elder, being the first affected.

Once everyone had left, Yi Qianmo quickly got down from the main seat and bowed to Yi Tianyang and Yi Tianyu, saying, "Second Uncle, Third Uncle… Qianmo thanks you here."

Yi Tianyu immediately stepped forward to support him and said, "Qianmo, you have grown up and become more understanding; the family owes you an apology."

"Qianmo, don’t those elders need to keep a close watch?" Yi Tianyang wasn’t being polite; he was just worried about the changes that might happen next.

"Thank you, Uncle San. Give me three days. If they don’t listen, I hope you can bear with it," Yi Qianmo said.

Yi Qianmo was very grateful to these two uncles. When his sister was pushed out, only these two uncles spoke up for her, especially Yi Tianyang, who argued passionately in such a situation.

"What are you saying? I am your Uncle San, your father’s own brother. When your father was alive, he never treated us brothers poorly. As Lingyu’s uncle, it is my duty," Yi Tianyang said.

Yi Tianyang said.

Hearing this, Yi Tianyu, the Second Uncle, lowered his head. Although he had just stepped forward to plead, he wasn’t as firm.

Yi Qianmo didn’t blame him. With a century of memories from his ancestors and thirteen years of patience, he understood the law of the jungle quite well.

Although Second Uncle Yi Tianyu wasn’t as strong, he still stepped up, and Yi Qianmo would never forget this kindness.

"Qianmo, about what comes next…" Yi Tianyu said, looking worried.

The paper cannot hide the fire. Even if the Yi family keeps the news secret now, the Lei family will eventually learn about Lei Yuhu’s death.

Moreover, the Yi family is already the center of attention. All the major forces are focused on the Yi family, and they cannot keep it hidden.

Yi Qianmo knows that with his current strength, it is not enough to face the entire Green Cloud City forces.

But this is just for now. As long as he is given enough time, all the pressures from Green Cloud City will mean nothing.

"Where is Grandpa in seclusion? I will go see him first. As for family matters, please give me three days!"

Yi Qianmo was filled with worry. After Yi Dajiang’s words, he felt very anxious.

"Brother, I know where Grandpa is in seclusion. I will take you there." Yi Lingyu immediately stepped forward and said.

"For everything within the family, I will leave it to my two uncles. Please give me three days, uncles!"

Yi Qianmo said.

Although he did not know why he was so confident, just thinking about his return from the Yu family and already being at the peak of the acquired stage made Yi Tianyang and Yi Tianyu feel much calmer.

Then, under Yi Lingyu’s guidance, Yi Qianmo arrived at the patriarch’s meditation room.
