Perfect: Many children, many blessings! Join the chat group!

Zhu Chen was about to respond to Shi Hao in the group chat and ask him about the recent situation in the lower realm, especially the news about Kong Qiuji.

However, before he could finish speaking, Han Li suddenly sent a comment:
[Han Li: @Everyone, we've encountered some trouble on Qiulong Star and might need your help...]

Upon seeing this, Zhu Chen frowned immediately.

[Zhu Chen: Weren't you guys trading with Luo Feng on Qiulong Star? How could a transaction cause trouble?]

[Han Li: The transaction was going smoothly until we left a trading area. Seventh Sister saw a caravan of alien races openly selling a large number of intelligent beings as slaves.]

Among them were many young children. She couldn't bear it, so she whispered a few words, condemning such behavior as violating the laws of nature and human ethics.

Unexpectedly, the leader in charge of the slave trade had exceptionally sharp hearing and heard Seventh Sister's words from a great distance.

Relying on his considerable strength, and seeing that Seventh Sister was exceptionally beautiful and elegant, the man uttered vulgar and insulting words, even declaring that he would definitely "take her down" and "enjoy" her.

The second brother was right next to the seventh sister at the time, and before she could finish speaking, he attacked.

[Wang Lin: Killing this kind of person would dirty my hands.]

Wang Lin added succinctly, his icy tone exuding a strong sense of menace.

Zhu Chen was also extremely angry after hearing this.

Qian Renxue is his acknowledged younger sister and a member of their Zhatian Gang. How could he allow others to desecrate her like this?

[Han Li: Sigh~, Second Brother acted decisively, killing that person in one strike. We thought we had resolved the trouble and quickly left the scene, but we didn't expect that the person who was killed seemed to be someone of considerable importance.]

[Zhu Chen: This has nothing to do with who's powerful or influential. Those who deserve to die should be killed as quickly as possible.]

At this moment, Luo Feng's message also came in:
[Luo Feng: This was all my oversight. I was at another exchange exchanging Black Dragon Coins, trying to get more funds for everyone. I wasn't with Second Brother and the others. If I had been there, Second Brother wouldn't have even needed to lift a finger; I could have killed him...]

[Zhu Chen: Luo Feng, who exactly was the person Wang Lin killed?]

[Luo Feng: That person is one of the core members of the Nuolanshan family!]

[Lin Dong: The Nuolanshan Clan? Are they very strong?]

Luo Feng: They're alright. They're a fairly well-known cosmic family within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, mainly based in the 'Nolan Mountain Star Region'. Their ancestor is a ninth-tier cosmic-level powerhouse!
As far as I know, their family has at least five cosmic-level powerhouses, and more than 8000 stellar-level ninth-order martial artists and mentalists!
As for private armies below the star level, they number in the tens of thousands!

In the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, their family was considered a powerful clan, and the kind that was known for its vengeful nature!

Luo Feng quickly laid out the known strength of the Nuolanshan family.

A ninth-order cosmic-level being is an absolutely insurmountable behemoth for Luo Feng and Han Li during the current Earth arc of Swallowing the Stars.

[Han Li: Sixth Brother, what level in our cultivation system is equivalent to the ninth rank of the Universe level in your world?]

Han Li was clearly not fully aware of the power divisions in the universe, but upon hearing that the other side had so many powerful individuals, his tone became serious.

[Luo Feng: Roughly speaking, planetary level corresponds to Foundation Establishment to Nascent Soul, stellar level corresponds to Nascent Soul to Deity Transformation, and cosmic level... at least Void Refinement and Integration, and might even touch upon higher levels. That ninth-tier cosmic level ancestor definitely possesses terrifying strength to destroy planets and roam the starry sky!]

[Han Li: Since the enemy's forces are so formidable, shouldn't we temporarily avoid their attacks? Should we retreat to Earth and wait for our elder brother and the others to arrive and provide reinforcements?]

Han Li quickly offered the safest suggestion.

Never engage in a risky fight.

This was his usual style. However, Luo Feng's next words made his heart sink instantly.

Luo Feng: Third Brother, I'm afraid that won't work. When entering Qiulong Star, all outsiders need to undergo a simple identity registration. I used my real information and registered as a citizen of 'Milky Way Earth'.

Given the power and influence of the Norlhan family in the universe, they could easily find Earth's coordinates through the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's official or underground channels!

If we escape, they are very likely to take their anger out on us and send a fleet directly to Earth.

Earth is currently too weak to withstand the wrath of a cosmic family.

Upon hearing Luo Feng's words, the atmosphere in the group became even more tense.

Just then, Xiao Yan, who had been diving, suddenly emerged:

[Xiao Yan: Nuolan Mountain? That name sounds familiar... Oh right, I remember now, in my past life there was a place called 'Niulan Mountain,' which was a kind of baijiu (Chinese liquor) that was incredibly delicious.]

[Lin Dong: Fourth Brother, what time is it? You're still in the mood for jokes? What Niulanshan? We're talking about a cosmic clan that's hunting down Third Brother and the others!]

Lin Dong clearly didn't get Xiao Yan's joke, and his tone was a little anxious.

[Xiao Yan: Hey, just trying to lighten the mood, but honestly, it sounds pretty troublesome. A ninth-tier cosmic level... tsk, if I could break through to Dou Di right now, dealing with them would be a piece of cake.]

[Han Li: Sixth brother, in your opinion, what should we do now?]

Han Li ignored Xiao Yan's joking remarks and went directly to Luo Feng, who knew the situation best.

The chat group was quiet for a moment, as if everyone was waiting for Luo Feng's decision.

Finally, Luo Feng's message popped up again.

This time, however, his words carried a chilling, resolute edge:

[Luo Feng: Everyone, things have come to this point. Escape and compromise are probably futile. Given the Noranshan family's modus operandi, once a deadly feud is formed, they will never let it go. Even if we are willing to pay compensation, they may still be insatiable and might even target Earth again. Therefore, we only have one path left.]

[Han Li: Which road?]

[Luo Feng: Trouble has already come knocking on our door; there's no way to avoid it now. Let's just deal with it completely!]

Luo Feng's words carried a do-or-die, murderous intent.

However, he was not acting blindly and impulsively. Rather, based on his understanding of the enemy's nature and his knowledge of the "original" plot, he made the cruelest and most likely solution to the problem once and for all!

Yes, it was genocide!
The chat group fell silent instantly.

Everyone could tell from Luo Feng's words that the trouble Han Li and his group encountered this time was not a simple conflict.

It was a racial war involving the life and death of an entire cosmic family!

"The Nuolanshan family..."

Zhu Chen muttered to himself, a cold smile curving his lips.

He had just experienced the joy of becoming a father for the first time, and then he learned that his brothers were in a life-or-death crisis in another world. How could he sit still?
