Speaking, this person did not strike at Purple Smoke but instead slapped a palm towards the warship hovering in the void.

Meanwhile, several others charged directly at Purple Smoke, all bursting out with powerful auras.

In the warship, Chu Mo was instantly alarmed, a breath of death instantly enveloped the warship he was in. In the void, a gigantic palm condensed, like a star, and slammed fiercely towards his warship.

Where the giant palm passed, the void collapsed in disarray, and the laws of the Great Dao crisscrossed.

Purple Smoke coldly snorted, "Seeking death!"

With a raise of her hand, a slender giant hand appeared in the void, directly smashing the opposing giant palm to pieces.

Then another hand from her side also attacked the several people who were charging at her.

From inside the warship, Chu Mo could clearly see that Zhuge Lang was among those charging at Purple Smoke. His eyebrows immediately shot up, and his eyes turned icy. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhuge Family…"

What misunderstanding, what accident? This was clearly the people of the Zhuge Family recognizing the warship of Purple Smoke and trying to launch a surprise attack, aiming to destroy Purple Smoke's warship and vent the resentment Zhuge Lang held from their previous grudge.

Little did they expect that not only did Purple Smoke evade their attack, but she was also powerful to this extent; she acted without any hesitation, destroying their warship and even killing the cultivators within four of their ships.

The remaining cultivators, if they hadn't fled quickly, would probably have also been killed on the spot, both people and ships by Purple Smoke.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the void, several explosions sounded in succession, those cultivators charging towards Purple Smoke each spat out a mouthful of blood and retreated.

They all showed a look of horror in their eyes, incredulously staring at Purple Smoke. They couldn't imagine that this woman, as beautiful as if she was not part of the mundane world, was so powerful.

Several Emperors attacking together, yet this was their plight.

The group of Zhuge Family cultivators were all terrified, their faces pallid, retreating towards the distance.

Just a moment ago, they were thinking that now, with the older family members present, they might give this ruthless woman a memorable lesson. However… the reality was completely different from what they had thought.

It gave them a heavy slap in the face.

"Zhuge Lang, I didn't kill you last time, and yet you still persist?" Purple Smoke's gaze was cold as she looked at the group she had repelled, then her eyes fell on the seriously injured Zhuge Lang.

Zhuge Lang's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Purple Smoke, gritting his teeth and said, "Enchantress, last time you meddled in affairs not concerning you, and this time you've killed my Zhuge family members without any reason… This grudge is now established."

Purple Smoke said, "Only now do I realize that this is the way the Zhuge Family conducts themselves. Years ago, the ancestor of the Zhuge Family, Zhuge Ming, was a military strategist and revered as a great power in the Cultivation Realm. It's a disgrace that his descendants today are like this. If the respected senior Zhuge Ming were still alive, he would be angered to death by you. If he has already passed away, he would probably be angered back to life by your actions."

"Purple Smoke… you dare to insult our Zhuge Family ancestors?" Zhuge Lang stared at Purple Smoke, his eyes nearly bursting.

Purple Smoke said indifferently, "I'm merely stating the truth."

At that moment, an elder coldly looked at Purple Smoke and said, "The Zhuge Family members provoked you first, they deserve death. But your slaughter is too heavy!"

Purple Smoke spoke with disdain, "Two attacks, and still they turned back for a third attempt. In my presence, they wouldn't even get a second chance. They executed three attacks, all of them deserving death."

"Very well, very well, very well!" the elder spoke and glanced at the warship behind Purple Smoke before adding lightly, "Let this matter stand as it is for now, but, Imperial Master of Purple Smoke, this cause and effect will eventually find its way back to us. We, the Zhuge Family... are not the kind to bear being trampled upon without retaliation."

Purple Smoke narrowed her eyes; her delicate face bore no expression, only her eyes, in which galaxies swam and time flowed. She looked icily at the young cultivators standing behind those few Emperors.

Those watched felt a chill in their hearts; being eyed by a mighty figure at the Eighth Layer of the Emperor Realm is not a pleasing feeling for anyone.

If it were not for her concern about failing to protect Chu Mo on the warship, Purple Smoke would have actually wanted to wipe all these people out completely. She knew where the old man from the Zhuge Family derived his confidence.

Zhuge Changzhi, the most brilliant Heavenly Genius among the younger generation of the Zhuge Family, emerged from the heavenly road three thousand years ago. He entered as a peak true immortal and stepped into the Seventh Layer of the Emperor Realm when he came out.

Now, three thousand years later, he has presumably gained further advancements.

In addition, it is said that the Zhuge Family has another young man eligible to be called a true immortal this time. Named Zhuge Changfeng, not yet thirty this year, he has already cultivated to the peak of the true immortal realm. It is rumored he already possesses the strength to step into the Emperor Realm but has suppressed his power intentionally, waiting for this opening of the heavenly road.

Surely among those who just perished, this young Heavenly Genius was not included, otherwise, these people from the Zhuge Family would have gone mad right then and there.

Purple Smoke really wanted to find that Zhuge Changfeng and kill him with one palm strike. This would mean one less powerful enemy for her junior brother. But right now, while it was simple for her to repel these cultivators from the Zhuge Family, killing them all would likely be difficult.

And she would lose the opportunity to look after Chu Mo; she had already provoked the Zhuge Family enough and didn't want these people to know that Chu Mo was with her.

So, after pondering for a moment, Purple Smoke said lightly, "If you seek revenge, I am always ready. Dare to touch a blade of grass or a branch in Purple Smoke City, and I will turn your Zhuge Family upside down at any time!"

Saying this, Purple Smoke flashed and returned inside the warship.

With a bang, the warship emitted a sound of explosion and disappeared before the group of Zhuge Family cultivators.

From top to bottom, from Emperor to those cultivators wishing to journey the heavenly road, all members of the Zhuge Family were filled with rage and hatred.

"Damn!" Zhuge Lang couldn't hold back a roar. As the once youngest Emperor of the Zhuge Family, he was filled with shame at this moment.

Talent really differs among individuals; before stepping onto the Emperor's path, Zhuge Lang's progress had been invincible, a perfect example of a peerless Heavenly Genius. Yet, unexpectedly, after stepping into the Emperor Realm, his pace of improvement slowed down by countless times.

Although still a Heavenly Genius compared to other cultivators, he no longer dared to regard himself as "peerless."

He cannot afford to lose that face!

The current Zhuge Family still has Zhuge Changzhi, this young and mighty figure, whose realm is much deeper. Currently exploring an ancient site, he is unable to divide himself. If he were here, today's situation would not have been so disgraceful.

Zhuge Changfeng stood behind one of the Emperors and had not spoken a word from the start, fearing to catch Purple Smoke's attention. At present, he is far from being her opponent.

Once Purple Smoke left, he then stepped forward, cupped his fists to the family's Emperors, and said gravely, "Esteemed seniors, rest assured, this time upon entering the heavenly road, I must step onto the Emperor's path. Once I emerge, the demonic woman Purple Smoke will meet her demise!"
