The Star-Eye Clan discovered that the Huo'er Star people had arrived, confirming their suspicions that Ye Zhongming and his group had attacked Zi Mu. Huozhi had left to begin his part of the plan, and now the Star-Eye Clan needed to act. Eye Lady devised a plan to coerce allied races into fighting the Huo'er Star people by staging an ambush. Meanwhile, Ming Qi revealed to two Su Clan elders that Huozhi had left to assassinate Huo'er Star people.

With a sudden movement, Elder Chongken Su stood up, pointed at Ming Qi, and shouted, "What exactly are you trying to do?!"

Ming Qi shook his head inwardly. If the future of the Su Clan were left to such elders, there truly was no hope. Asking what they were trying to do? Could they not guess?

Elder Luozhi Su, on the side, was somewhat calmer. Although he did not stand up, he leaned his body forward, frowning as he stared at Ming Qi.

"Did I... not speak clearly enough?" Ming Qi also stood up, looked at the two elders, and said, "Then let me say it again."

"Elder Huozhi has gone to Black Book Absolute Peak. He wants to wipe out all the Huo'er Star people there."

Chongken Su was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly. After a moment, he said to Ming Qi, who had been watching him coldly, "Wipe out all the Huo'er Star people? Do you know how many Huo'er Star people have come? Do you think they are like our Su Clan's formation masters, who lack strong combat ability? Do you know how many great experts they have? Do you know that among them there is a peak expert!"

By the end, Elder Chongken Su was already roaring.

He did not think Ming Qi was lying because he had already thought of the reason.

It was all because of the relationship between Yisewei, White Robe, and Zi Mu.

He knew very well the relationship between Jie Su and White Robe. To kill Zi Mu for the sake of a brother, Jie Su was capable of that. He also knew Jie Su's status within the clan leaders' faction. To rescue Jie Su, they were indeed capable of taking action against the people of Huo'er Star.

After all, the Huo'er Star people here were only a small part of that super-large clan, and they did not seem so desperate.

But although Chongken Su understood this, he still believed that Huozhi could not possibly succeed and was bound to fail.

Even if they had prepared formations in advance, even if they were all of the Ten Great Formations, they would never be a match for that peak expert!

That person would not even break a sweat before breaking the formations and killing Huozhi and the others.

This was not because the Ten Great Formations were inadequate, but because of true level suppression.

And what would failure mean? Chongken Su dared not even imagine it.

This would drag the entire Su Clan into the abyss!

"You must take responsibility for this! You will pay a heavy price for this! After we return, we will impeach Yaohan Su. Your faction's time as clan leader is over!"

Chongken Su felt fear and dread. He believed that the stubborn actions of Huozhi and the others had seriously threatened his own life safety.

He had to do something!

"Everything you said is correct. Huozhi alone cannot accomplish this. Therefore, I hope you can help," Ming Qi said unhurriedly. "The matter has already happened. Whether you are willing or not, conflict between the Su Clan and the Huo'er Star people is unavoidable. If you truly care about the Su Clan, then you should do everything you can to help Elder Huozhi wipe out all the Huo'er Star people here. That way, the matter will end and will not implicate the outside. But if any of the Huo'er Star people here survive and leave, then the Su Clan will truly be in great trouble."

"Nonsense!" Chongken Su continued to roar. "This is all the doing of your clan leader's faction. Why should the other two factions and the entire Su Clan pay the price for you?! You have done wrong, and you must bear the responsibility!"

"It seems I cannot reason with you." Ming Qi shifted his gaze to Elder Luozhi Su.

"Elder, what is your opinion?"

In response to Ming Qi's question, before Elder Luozhi Su could answer, Chongken Su spoke again.

"Don't bother with him. Their faction has gone mad since Jie Su appeared. They have forgotten the principles upheld by the Su Clan and have forgotten the ancestral teachings. They are now pushing the entire Su Clan into the abyss. What we need to do now is to go to the Huo'er Star people ourselves, clarify our position, and then hand over the responsible individuals to the Huo'er Star people for disposal!"

Ming Qi sneered and said, "What a fine elder of the Su Clan. Instead of thinking about how to help the clan leader, he wants to hand the Su Clan over to the enemy. What a great example."

"That is because you have made a foolish move! You are forcing us! Why didn't you think to consult with us before doing this?! What do you mean by telling us now? Isn't it still that you think only by doing this will we go along with you? Let me tell you, you are dreaming!"

Elder Luozhi Su nodded. What Elder Chongken Su said made sense. The approach of the clan leader's faction was not only disrespectful to them; it was also practically coercive.

"If we had told you first, would you have agreed?" Ming Qi said with a cold laugh, then continued, "It seems dangerous, but the opportunity is right in front of us. The planet hunting ground is a relatively closed space. Eliminating the Huo'er Star people here carries the least risk. Given that conflict with the Huo'er Star people is inevitable, this is the best way to solve it once and for all."

Before the two elders could speak, Ming Qi spoke again, "If we succeed, we will not only obtain all the wealth of these Huo'er Star people here but also receive gifts from the Star-Eye Clan. As for what the gifts are, I think you also know. I can reveal this much: not to mention Purple Luo Zinc and Weapons of War, Ye Zhongming also possesses things even better than these, things that can greatly enhance us."

"You should know I am not lying. Not long ago, he even improved the Golden Soldier Killing Formation. Even without any other benefits, just the modification method alone, are you not tempted?"

The two elders fell silent.

Money moves people's hearts—this is true everywhere. Ming Qi knew that the two elders must be furious upon hearing this, but the best way to dispel anger was to offer them benefits.

The wealth of the Huo'er Star people here came first: their equipment, their Moonspan Gold, their hunting gains... all of these were priceless. Second was the knowledge of materials and methods that Ye Zhongming possessed, which were useful to the Su Clan.

Combined, these two aspects should make them interested.

Since conflict with the Huo'er Star people was unavoidable, having benefits was better than having none!

Seeing the expressions on the two elders' faces, Ming Qi continued, "For the Su Clan to develop, conflict with the Huo'er Star people is inevitable. It is only a matter of sooner or later."

He had not even finished saying this when Chongken Su turned hostile again, loudly berating the clan leader's faction to which Ming Qi belonged for their stubbornness.

Ming Qi listened for a while. Then, ignoring Chongken Su, he directly asked Luozhi Su, "Elder, on top of everything I mentioned earlier, if I add an additional fifty million Moonspan Gold personally for you, will you stand with us?"

Luozhi Su opened his mouth to refuse, but the sum of fifty million made him feel deeply that having money truly allowed one to be arrogant.

"When we return to the clan, your position will be over. Your actions will be met with the severest punishment," Chongken Su squinted and threatened Ming Qi.

Ming Qi smiled. "Elder Luozhi Su, I will take that as your agreement. Now, please do not move."

Then he looked at Chongken Su.

"As for you, we predicted that you would not cooperate. So, I am sorry, but please die."

As he finished speaking, the entire tent suddenly fell into darkness. Faint points of light began to appear in the surrounding air, like countless fireflies.

"The Confusion Killing Soul-Shaking Formation?!" Chongken Su had barely spoken when, from several corners of the tent, several eerie shadows suddenly flew out, carrying cold light as they stabbed toward him.
