Shen Chongshan bitterly laughed and spoke hoarsely “Fierce Blade, we are at the end of our fate now. What I asked is just to recognize the faces you know among the crowd! I don’t care if you kill any innocent, but I can’t let any of them get away from what they deserve!”
Li Wuliang could never forget the battle. Every night when he was asleep, the enemies’ faces would reflect in his head again and again. Dao Origin Stage cultivators had a better memory than ordinary people. He hated his enemies so much that it was impossible he would recognize them wrong! Now, as he looked around those faces, he felt like they were back to the battle again, with all those terrible faces.
When the battle began, he only drove the people of the three factions away and didn’t kill anyone. However, the three factions weren’t some kind of nice people. They returned to him and captured his friends as hostages. He had decided to give in, but… one man in Saint Starlight Sect actually forced him to abrogate his own cultivation. Therefore, his friend sacrificed in order to die with that vile man in Saint Starlight Sect. However, the suicidal attack only hurt the enemy a bit. That was when the three factions killed the hostages!
Li Wuliang went mad immediately and killed one hundred and seventy Dao Origin Stage cultivators of the enemy. The rest of them were also killed after three thousand miles fleeing! That man who wanted Li Wuliang to abrogate himself got killed by Li Wuliang with incredible saber moves!
However, the people he cared for were dead. Even if he could let down the hate in his heart, how could he not take revenge for his friends!
After that, he sent a message to Ye Xiao who was in the Boundless Divine District and couldn’t go to Li Wuliang’s side in time. The three factions attacked Li Wuliang the third time. Ninety-nine Dao Origin Stage level-nine cultivators fought him together, and at the end of the fight, he fell off the mountain and started the several years painful trial…
He felt like it all happened one day before! He just couldn’t forget about it!
His breath became heavy, and his eyes were flaming in anger. He said, “That’s right… Some of them are killed back to the days. Everybody I remember is here. However, some of these people, I can’t recognize.”
No matter how much he hated these people, he couldn’t lie!
Shen Chongshan spoke piteously, “There are some of them you can’t recognize because they only participated in making the plan…”
Li Wuliang clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and said, “What are you going to do now?”
Shen Chongshan turned around and spoke to his people, “I don’t want to do anything! These people of my sect have done something that has caused a disaster to the sect. Now, since Fierce Blade is here to seek revenge, they should take the responsibility!”
He spoke as if he was telling about somebody’s daily story, but what he meant was cruel. He wanted to sacrifice those people for peace to the sect! It was brutal and cold!
Over one thousand men suddenly fell into hopelessness.
The great elder who stood behind Shen Chongshan took one step forward and spoke with a pale face in a determined voice, “I, a great elder of Saint Sunlight Sect, although I didn’t participate in the fight, has been leading the plan… The bastard who intentionally offended you was my useless son. If not for what he did, things wouldn’t end up this way… It is fate!”
“Now, once again, I am leading what we should do now. What is to be done will draw an end to the hostility. I started it, so I shall end it!” He turned around and spoke, “All of you, listen up!”
At this moment, this old man stood straight up, as if it was back to the days when he commanded all.
Everybody was shocked. They raised up their heads and stared at him.
“Since we have made the mistake, we should make it up to it. To be forgiven or not is not what we should care about first. The first thing we should do is to pay the debt!
“Starting from me, everybody apologizes to them, bow, and end his life! All of you and I shall destroy ourselves, soul, and body! This is what we owe to them! This is the way we apologize to the innocent people who died back to the year!”
As he finished talking, he turned around again facing Li Wuliang. In his eyes, that was mixed emotion. He bowed deeply and said, “Please accept my apology for what I did!”
Then he stood straight and raised up his hand!
– Pah! – A palm hit on his own head.
It was so powerful that not only his head but also his entire body was broken into pieces!
The great elder was in Tittle Phase, which meant his soul was strong enough to remain unharmed after the body was broken. The next moment, his soul showed up and then exploded. He was completely gone.
Thirteen hundred and fifty-seven men behind the old men bowed to Li Wuliang at the same time, “Apologies to what we did!”
At the same time, they raised up one hand and hit on their own heads!
Blood was everywhere.
Some of them were powerful, while the others were not. None of them could break their own body as thoroughly as the great elder. Most of them had broken the heads into pieces and died with blood splashing everywhere.
The smell of blood spread in the square.
Over one thousand dead bodies lied on the ground.
A lot of blood was running below the bodies. The color of dark red blood became like a red lake…
The bodies were lying on the floor, and the people of Saint Starlight Sect were in chaos all of a sudden.
Their sect couldn’t protect their people against their enemies. What shocked the disciples most was that their sect sacrificed their own people to beg for forgiveness. They all started to consider whether or not to stay in this sect because none of them could be sure they were protected in the future!
Shen Chongshan turned over to his people again, looked around, and the crowd was back to peace.
Li Wuliang was shocked. He couldn’t believe what he just saw.
He had never thought that Saint Starlight Sect would do such a thing. It was true that everybody who died was elite in the sect. However, they just commited suicide with one hit on their own heads! None of them refused to sacrifice!
