Chapter 78: Taking Over the Moon
[Thanks again to Mommmmmm for the gift-giving king! This is the second one already. Bro, be careful with your gifts, I'm already happy to receive them as a token of my love for this cause.]
[I would feel guilty if you gave me a gift. I only update twice a day on time, I feel unworthy to receive it.]

"What?!"
The branch family patriarch's pupils suddenly contracted, his blood and qi stagnated, and he tried to retreat quickly, but it was too late.
Wanci made his move in that instant!
The speed of tens of thousands of times was unbelievably fast, as if it directly crossed space. No one present even had time to blink, and no one could react at all.
Before the clan patriarch could even process the shock on his face, a piercing scream tore through the air!
"ah--!"
"Pfft!"
In the blink of an eye, the branch clan leader clutched his right eye in agony, collapsed to his knees, blood gushing from between his fingers, and his whole body trembled violently.
Wanci remained standing in the same spot, his expression indifferent as ever.
However, in the palm of his hand, a Reincarnation Eye, shimmering with dazzling light, floated silently, its aura captivating.
"It seems you can't handle it."
Wanci's lips curled slightly, his tone indifferent.
The patriarch of the branch family stared intently at Wan Ci with his only remaining eye, his hatred and excruciating pain intertwined, yet he didn't even have the strength to stand up.
"Chieftain!!"
The other branch family experts were furious when they saw their patriarch suffer such a serious injury!
No longer caring about the opponent's unfathomable strength, they all leaped forward, unleashing a barrage of powerful palm strikes thousands of times.
"Don't come here to die."
Thousands of times, just a casual remark.
Having lived for so long, Wanci had long since lost the will to kill.
Having lived through countless years, he had long since lost interest in endless fighting.
Moreover, these people are innocent; the target of this incident is merely the Tenseigan.
They are all of Hamura's bloodline.
He naturally spared their lives.
"Sage Art: Yata Illusion Technique!"
After casting the spell, the moment it landed, the purple light of the Rinnegan in Wanci's eyes burst forth, and the power of the immortal eye swept in all directions.
This is a large-scale illusion technique that combines Sage Mode and the Rinnegan; an invisible force instantly enveloped the entire area.
The members of the branch family, who had just launched a fierce attack a moment ago, all froze in place!
The next second, their eyes went blank, and they collapsed to the ground like broken-stringed puppets, all trapped in the illusion.
In an instant, only the members of the Zong family remained standing there, their faces pale and not daring to breathe.
Seeing that the situation was settled, Wan Ci slowly turned his head and looked at the clan patriarch: "Clan patriarch."
"This junior is here! May I ask, Immortal..."
The clan patriarch immediately bowed, his tone extremely respectful, his eyes filled with only fear and doubt, and he dared not act rashly in the slightest.
With his hands behind his back, he declared directly: "From now on, the moon is under the jurisdiction of Mount Myoboku."
Your main family and branch families shall immediately merge. The clan's rules may be retained, but you must accept the jurisdiction of Mount Myoboku.
Upon hearing this, the clan patriarch's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shook his head: "I cannot obey! I am entrusted by my ancestors to guard the moon. There is a great terror hidden within the moon's core, and we must not entrust it to outsiders!"
"You don't need to worry about that."
Wanci naturally understood that what they were desperately guarding was nothing more than the Outer Path Golem deep within the moon.
"You shall continue to guard the object in the moon, and you only need to accept the management of Mount Myōboku."
The clan patriarch's expression remained grave as he hesitated, saying, "But... I'm afraid the other elders of the clan won't agree."
Manji raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze sweeping over the members of the main family: "You...don't accept the rule of Mount Myōboku?"
As soon as the words were spoken, several elders of the main family stepped forward without the slightest hesitation:
"agree!"
"agree!"
"agree!"
The responses were crisp and decisive.
"Why?!"
The clan patriarch turned his head sharply, looking at the elders who had all expressed their opinions, his face full of bewilderment and astonishment, completely unable to understand.
Wanci was not surprised at all—among the elders of the Zong family, there were already spies planted by Mount Miaoboku, lying in wait for the right opportunity.
Wanci looked at the bewildered clan head and smiled faintly: "Hmm, not bad."
"From now on, you shall continue to live as usual. You shall remain the clan chief and continue to manage clan affairs well."
As he spoke, Wanci raised his hand and gently patted the clan patriarch's shoulder.
The clan patriarch showed a struggle on his face, but then he thought that he had not lost his power and was still the clan patriarch. He was just under an additional layer of jurisdiction, which seemed... not unacceptable.
The clan patriarch took a deep breath and bowed respectfully: "As you command! May I ask your name, Immortal? How should we address you?"
Wanci's aura vanished, his weathered appearance transformed into a sharp edge, and his face instantly returned to its youthful state. His voice was steady and authoritative.
"The Sage of Six Paths".
When the clan patriarch saw that his face was exactly the same as the portrait passed down in the clan, he was shocked and his face was filled with extreme horror. His legs went weak and he knelt down on the ground.
"Are you a god?!"
"Greetings, Sage of Six Paths!!"
All the members and elders of the clan knelt down in unison, their respectful kowtows echoing across the moon.
"....."
Wanci saw this scene and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
I should have revealed my identity as soon as I got online.

Deep within the territory of the Thousand Hands Clan, under the wooden eaves.
Senju Uzuki clenched her fists tightly, her almond-shaped eyes widening, her anger blazing undisguised as she lashed out at her father.
"What? You want me to represent the Senju clan in a marriage alliance with the Uzumaki clan?!"
Senju Uzuki was filled with unbelievable rage, and faint chakra fluctuations emanated from her body due to the surge of her emotions.
Senju Tai stood opposite him, his face ashen, his expression so serious that there was no room for negotiation, and he nodded heavily:
"right."
"Who made this decision?! I disagree! I would rather die than agree!"
Senju Uzuki stepped forward, her chest heaving violently.
"It was a decision made jointly by the clan chief and all the elders in the clan."
Senju Tai's voice deepened, his gaze complex.
"The Uzumaki clan and my Senju clan are old friends with the same bloodline and have been on good terms for generations. Your marriage as a direct descendant of the Senju clan is the greatest sincerity that my Senju clan can offer."
How could he not feel sorry for his daughter?
Maoyue is exceptionally talented and is one of the best among the younger generation of the Senju clan. However, the decision of the clan leader and the elders represents the will of the entire clan.
As an elder of the clan, he had no choice but to harden his heart and speak out when faced with the choice between the interests of the clan and his daughter's personal feelings.
"Impossible!! Absolutely impossible!"
Senju Uzuki roared in protest.
The image in my heart rises uncontrollably
Uchiha Fox, the one to whom she harbored deep feelings.
She and the Uchiha clan were originally enemies, so there was no chance of a future together. Even so, she was unwilling to compromise and did not want to marry a Uzumaki clan member she had never met. In this world, apart from Uchiha Kitten, she looked down on everyone and did not want to marry anyone!
Upon seeing this, Senju Tai's tone suddenly turned stern!
"You can't just do whatever you want about this!"
Senju Tai rebuked him sternly: "You were born a child of the Senju clan, and you are born to consider the clan. You must make sacrifices at critical moments!"
Moreover, the Uzumaki clan is renowned and possesses a powerful bloodline; marrying them would not be a disservice to you in the slightest!
"Sacrificing for one's people..."
Upon hearing these words, Senju Uzuki froze, her anger suddenly extinguished by a sense of powerlessness.
The anger on her pretty face gradually faded, replaced by endless struggle and bitterness.
Yes, for the Senju clan, the interests of the clan always outweigh everything else, outweigh her own feelings, her own joy, and all her reluctance.
From the moment she was born into the Senju family, this was a rule etched into her very bones, one she could neither escape nor avoid.
