Sam and the team finished off the Night Demon family. Except for the guy named Davon, the rest of the core members were killed. Davon was throw into the chessboard instead as an insurance plan.

Usually, Sam wouldn't have gone for this unnecessary bloodshed, this time he made the decision, because the Night Demons are formidable foes, for him to just let them be and stay with peace while they are still breathing under his neck.

As for Davon, the outer Deacon of the Five Great sects being his father, he wanted to use him as a hostage if the situation arises where the father manages to catch up with them.

After getting ahold of the family heirloom, Sam went into the underground temple where the whole of the Night Demon family was gathered. Most of them are weak and would take decades before they could become qualified to even think of making trouble for Sam. He let them live, but not without any other plan.

He left the Night Ghost, Tamas, and his specter to handle something which could be called as a ritual for the rest of the Night Demons, which reduces the chances of trouble even more. He walked towards the Hel statue and performed his own ritual with the blood of some Night Demons.

The statue glowed and soon Hel's consciousness took over it, when she saw Sam in front of her, she was stunned, but she quickly recovered and spoke.

"Guess, these people are also trash that couldn't even deal with you?"

"If everyone that couldn't deal with me is trash, then doesn't that make you the biggest trash of all? After all, we met on equal terms face to face." Sam spoke sarcastically.

Hel wanted to yell at him, but she knew it is exactly what Sam wanted and controlled her urge and decided adamantly to not lose her composure, at least in front of Sam. If she did lose it, it is definitely her loss.

"I am not an Idiot like Hou Yi, to fall for your tricks, You cannot disturb me. Anyway, this is just one of the many forces that I have under me. Even if you destroyed all the forces under that list, I would still have forces numbering Dozen times more."

"Of course, that is indeed true. Anyway, I wanted to ask you something. I heard something about the stray planet called Planet Jaman and something happened a few decades ago. People are talking that a goddess is the main reason for it. By any chance are you involved? If you do, what the hell happened for them to talk about that, this many years later."

Hel paused for a moment, even though Sam couldn't see her expression through the statue, he could guess the surprised expression she might have had.

"How do you even know that? Where did you hear about Planet Jaman? It should be impossible for anyone to talk about it."

"It seems like it is really related to you. Anyway, I am not particularly interested in this situation, but when I saw the fear in the person that spoke to me, I couldn't help but become curious a bit. Okay then, I will take my leave."

"No, wait. Who did you hear it from?"

"I destroyed an Elven Branch around two years ago. The head of the elven branch who was on verge of death spoke about this in his last moments. He wanted to make a confession before he died, he wanted someone to know the sins he committed, so he asked me to listen to him. I was in a bit of a good mood.

So, yeah, I listened to him and the first thought that came to my mind, when he thought of God and Goddess are Hou Yi and You. He didn't really go into details, he just said that whatever sins he committed, he only shares the blame for half of them and the other half goes to you two."

Hel began to think nervously, but suddenly, she grew a faint suspicion and looked at Sam.

"Why are you telling me this? Is this another one of your plans?"

"Not really, I want you to stay alive by the time I come there. I would kill your ass myself. Otherwise, there is no way my soul would have any piece if you died before that. From the looks of it, you protected the secret carefully, so do take care and wash your neck cleanly every day until I visit you. Goodbye."

With that, Sam took a step back and threw a small liquid cell at the statue making it explode and collapse. The night demon family task is finished. At least his part of it.

Night Ghost, Tamas, and Specter are trying to erase the memory of the attack from their minds.

Even though Sam wouldn't mind his identity being revealed, this time they dealt with a power that has some connections and relations with even higher powers, if things go down that way, he would be in trouble. He needs at least a few years before he could deal with them.

As for the citizens, he couldn't do anything about it, but at least they don't know that Sam is the primary suspect.

As for why he didn't do the same with the core members, there is a high chance of their recovery of memory because of their current cultivation level. Which is not exactly a chance that Sam is willing to take at the moment.

The issues were settled, it is time to distribute the loot. They stayed there for a few hours and collected all the loot that they can. Loot from the places under the Night Demon family control.

Sam needs spirit stones more than ever. The team went for the remaining resources.

After the main loot was distributed, they moved to the other loot which needs to be distributed between Sam and Night Ghost.

The loot of souls. Night Ghost, even took the help of Tamas and Specter to loot the souls from the dead and stored them in a special container Sam made. A container made of the empty spirit stone material.

After the team finished their job there and left the estate, they went to a lower level realm that was a bit far away and rested there while Sam looked through the souls he collected, he didn't collect every soul, he looked through them specifically to collect the souls of the people who have any form of experience in the four major professions. As for identifying them, he just looked through the records of the family that he stole.

Night Ghost took some souls that are useful for his growth and then left the choice to the specter who also devoured many souls that are not useful for any of them.

As for Tamas who also contributed to this, he didn't want any souls at the moment, since he is a necromancer and is a bit picky at what souls he would use for his purpose

They directly went into some special container that was inscribed with a bunch of formations.

While Sam is busy examining his loot, the news about the Night Demon family spread far and wide like a wildfire.

Even Davon's friends who are a few realms away from the Night Demon realm got the news.

They already expected this but they still couldn't help but feel surprised by this. This happened faster than expected. They decided to take a look at the Night Demon family and see if they can find any clues to give them to Davon's father.

This time the young man in the cloak who didn't go the first time also joined.

They reached the estate and saw the remains of the Battle, the low-level members of the Night Demon family are cleaning up the battle area which was full of corpses.

"This is worse than I imagined and way faster too. It is almost like the other party waited solely for us to leave this place and attacked as soon as we moved."

Dark elf muttered to himself and looked at the cloaked young man who is more focused on the wreckage of the battle.

He wanted to ask about the person who did this, but held back and went to meet with the Night demon family member with the rest of his friends.

They asked some questions, but Night Demons cannot remember any faces or names of anything related to battle. They could only leave helplessly.

"We need to finish the mission faster and report this to Davon's father." They decided and went back to do their work.

While things are like this here, somewhere far away in the higher heavenly realms, some gods are meeting and it was called by Hel herself.

The remaining two gods are actually Indra and Hou Yi.

"Why did you call us so suddenly?" Hou wasn't really excited about the call and even Indra showed signs of annoyance."

"The Jaman Planet."

She said these words and the remaining two widened their eyes in disbelief at what they heard.
