Hui Kai turned to look at the woman.
She raised her head and gritted her teeth, "Sir, Song 'er is Hui Kai's son."
Hui Kai was shocked and wanted to slap this woman to death. Bastard, she had wrongly accused him.
The others were also shocked, "Madam, you can't say that."
"Madam."
"Madam."
Elder Qiu watched quietly. This woman did not cultivate the Path of Heartlessness; she was protecting her son.
Lu Yin said, "I heard that. Mother would not mistake the child's father."
"This is troublesome. What do you think we should do?
Wei Qi is dead, and Wei Song is not the son of City Lord Wei. I can't just come here and do nothing. It won't be easy to explain to the people of the Azure Water Valley. "
At this point, his gaze turned cold as he stared at Hui Kai, "Either the people here die, or you die. No matter what, you are City Lord Wei's junior, right?"
Hui Kai was shocked; this person's target was him.
Within the city lord's manor, a group of people were begging for mercy. They would rather die.
Hui Kai looked up at Lu Yin and saw his cold gaze. His entire body stiffened; how could this be?
As a disciple of the Path of Eternal Life, he had never thought that there would be a day when his life would be in someone else's hands, and for such a ridiculous reason. If he died, what would the outside world say?
Would he die at Lu Yin's hands, or would he die at the hands of that evil woman?
He did not even know who to hate.
A cold wind blew, and snow fell in the courtyard, gradually covering the blood.
At this moment, Hui Kai was experiencing the most desperate moment of his life. Looking at Lu Yin's condescending gaze, he was completely shrouded in despair.
Lu Yin raised his hand, and Hui Kai felt a monstrous pressure that felt like the Milky Way was reversing.
Hui Kai did not even dare to move. The world was collapsing, and his life was slipping away.
Hui Kai stared blankly, "My … my master is the Path of Eternal Life."
The others knelt on the ground. The Path of Eternal Life?
If not for Ji He's Eternal Life, he would have died.
Elder Qiu looked on sympathetically. If Hui Kai had not come, it would have been none of his business. Who asked him to come and show off?
Just as Lu Yin's hand was about to press down on Hui Kai, he stopped.
The pressure suddenly disappeared.
Snowflakes danced about on the ground, but when everyone looked over again, they saw that the ashes were gone, and so was Lu Yin. Only Elder Qiu was left standing in his original position.
Outside Mountain Wind City, Hui Kai was kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath. He had just experienced a moment of life and death, and his back was drenched in sweat.
Lu Yin raised his head and looked at the man indifferently. This figure was like a giant.
Hui Kai knelt down. "Thank you for not killing me, Mister. Thank you for not killing me."
Lu Yin replied, "I didn't say I wouldn't kill you."
Hui Kai's body trembled.
"I just have a question. If you answer it well, I might spare your life."
It was as if Hui Kai had grabbed onto a life-saving straw. "Sir, please ask away. As long as this lowly one knows, I will definitely tell you everything."
Lu Yin smiled faintly, "Even if you have to tell me the secret of your master's parallel sequence?
It will only lead to a fatal disaster. "
Hui Kai gritted his teeth. "As long as I know, I will tell you everything."
Nothing was more important than being alive right now. As long as he could get through this, anything was fine.
He didn't want to die, not even for one more second.
The more one had never experienced death, the more one feared death.
He was an Eternal Life Realm disciple. He had not lived long enough and had not enjoyed enough.
Lu Yin's voice was calm. "How many disciples does the Heartless Sect's leader, Jiu Wen, have?"
Hui Kai's pupils shrank as he looked at Lu Yin in shock.
Lu Yin looked at him without saying a word, but his gaze became colder.
。
Hui Kai looked at Lu Yin for a while, his eyes flashing.
"You don't want to answer?"
Hui Kai gritted his teeth. "I don't know how many disciples Jiu Wen had, but I know that there were six."
"Tell me."
"Zeng Family, Shahe Family, Marquis Household, Stonewall Family, Nanshan Family, and Xu Family. A total of six families, all of which were his disciples' families. I don't know the details because other than the Stonewall Family, the rest are all gone."
Lu Yin looked at Hui Kai. "All gone?"
Hui Kai replied, "Yes, all gone."
He was very clear about what Lu Yin wanted to know. If it was just a casual question, he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble. Saying that he came to Mountain Wind City for revenge was all fake. He was just looking for an excuse to ask about this.
It was worth it for him to do so.
He had no choice. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said it.
His master couldn't help him.
"Other than the Stonewall Family, the other five families were all wiped out. The one who did it was Jiu Wen," Hui Kai said slowly.
Lu Yin's pupils shrank as he stared at Hui Kai.
Hui Kai no longer hesitated. "All along, the Heartless Sect's leader had been Jiu Wen Yongsheng. However, there was one time when Ji He Yongsheng used some unknown method to obtain the Heroic Ancestor's support, allowing him to compete for the position of sect leader. Ji He Yongsheng was the Heroic Ancestor's disciple, while my master and He Xiao Yongsheng were all disciples of the Heroic Ancestor. Normally, Jiu Wen Yongsheng wouldn't have been able to win.
"In particular, it was said that Ji He Yongsheng had betrayed one of Jiu Wen Yongsheng's disciples, using that disciple to blackmail Jiu Wen Yongsheng and force him to give up his position.
"This caused a huge commotion.
However, this commotion only lasted for a day. After a day, other than the Stonewall Family, the other five families all died.
The disciples and their clansmen were all killed. Blood flowed like rivers. Their entire clan was wiped out. Not a single one of them managed to escape. "
Hui Kai was horrified. "Many people saw Jiu Wen Yongsheng standing in a pool of blood and smiling at Ji He Yongsheng. That moment was a nightmare for many.
"My master also saw it. He Xiao Yongsheng and the others also saw it. From that moment on, Ji He Yongsheng withdrew and gave up fighting for the position of the Heartless Sect's Lord. No one dared to mention the extermination of the five families."
He looked at Lu Yin. "Five families, a million people, all of them died at Jiu Wen Yongsheng's hands."
Lu Yin's gaze sank. A million people didn't seem like a lot, and it was insignificant compared to a civilization. Some people could destroy civilizations by breaking the Sequence String.
However, if one personally slaughtered a million people, the meaning would be different, especially if they were his own disciples.
"Did all five of his disciples betray him?"
Hui Kai closed his eyes. "That's the most frightening thing. Only one disciple betrayed him, but Ji He Yongsheng didn't say who it was."
Lu Yin sighed. That was why Jiu Wen Yongsheng had wiped out all five of his disciples' families.
The Stonewall Family's disciples had died long ago, leaving behind only their descendants. However, as long as the Stonewall Family's ancestors were still alive, it wouldn't just be five families that were wiped out, but six.
How ruthless, how ruthless.
Wasn't he afraid of karma restraining him after slaughtering a million people?
However, karma restraining a million people wasn't a lot. Eternal Realm cultivators only cared about karma restraints when the opponent was very strong or when a civilization had a large population. A million people was far from enough to make an Eternal Realm cultivator fear them.
However, the terror of personally slaughtering a million people had become the nightmare of countless people in the Red Coat civilization.
No wonder Elder Qiu, Sherman, and the others didn't want to fight.
They didn't want to say anything.
They were afraid of Jiu Wen Yongsheng.
Jiu Wen Yongsheng had left a shadow in their hearts that was difficult to erase.
Just because one disciple betrayed him, he didn't need to know who it was. He just killed them all. That was the true path of heartlessness.
Jiu Wen's words kept echoing in Lu Yin's mind. There were right and wrong in being heartless.
But what was right and wrong?
Were the other four families wrong?
He had wiped them all out. Was that his path of heartlessness?
Jiu Wen's words and Ji He's words echoed in Lu Yin's ears.
Some people seemed fierce, but were actually gentle. Some people seemed bright, but were actually terrifying.
Jiu Wen had founded the Heartless Sect, and the Heartless Valley had also been created by him. Massacres were nothing to him.
Ash left, and Lu Yin already understood the situation.
Not long after, Elder Qiu arrived. He knew that Lu Yin must have already known about this.
He didn't know what the consequences would be. Logically speaking, even if one didn't cultivate the path of heartlessness, the cultivation world wouldn't be peaceful. To be able to reach this step, one's hands were also stained with blood.
However, this blood was different from Jiu Wen's blood.
"Do you think that the path of heartlessness is divided into right and wrong?" Lu Yin asked as he looked into the distance.
Elder Qiu stood behind him, not knowing how to answer.
Right and wrong?
In the Red Coat civilization, this was a very laughable phrase. In the cultivation world, this was also a very laughable phrase.
"Sir, is your civilization divided into right and wrong?" Elder Qiu asked in return.
Lu Yin's gaze was complicated. Yes, was his civilization divided into right and wrong?
The cultivation world was like this, and it had nothing to do with the path of heartlessness.
If he couldn't differentiate between right and wrong, he would be like Jiu Wen. However, with his extremely high innate gift and his teleportation technique, who could do anything to him?
Thus, people had to rely on themselves.
However, civilizations weren't like this. They were divided into right and wrong, divided into fairness, passed down inheritances, and protected emotions.
Even if there was injustice in the three universes, most people were still within civilization.
He had made a great wish to guide people to do good, but it was actually very laughable. Human nature was the most unpredictable, but this person didn't refer to every single person, but to a civilization, a human civilization.
To guide people to do good was to guide a civilization to do good.
How could the path of heartlessness be good?
"Bring me to see the families of those disciples."
"No, only the ruins are left."
"Let's see."
Elder Qiu felt that Lu Yin was very strange. The reason why they hadn't told Lu Yin about this was because they were afraid that Sect Master Jiu Wen would blame them. After all, this had become a taboo, and they weren't worried about Lu Yin.
However, it seemed that Mr. Lu wasn't very satisfied with Sect Master Jiu Wen's actions.
Right and wrong?
Fairness?
Truth?
Were these important?
Mr. Lu had cultivated to such a realm, so why would he care about these things?
Elder Qiu couldn't figure it out, unless this person had only cultivated for a short time and his heart hadn't become numb.
"Mr. Lu, can we not go?"
Lu Yin looked at him. "Are you afraid of Jiu Wen?"
Elder Qiu nodded. "Those ruins are the same as this. They are all taboo, and no one dares to approach them."
Lu Yin said, "Let's go. Jiu Wen won't blame you. I forced you to lead the way."
Elder Qiu had no choice but to lead the way.
The five families — Nanshan, Xu, Shahe, Marquis', and Zeng — looked at the ruins one by one. The land that had once been bathed in blood was now covered in filth, and no one dared to clean it. The locations of these five families were excellent, but no one dared to replace them.
When the wind blew, the white bones turned into powder and were blown away by the breeze.
However, the river was very clear. Time could wash everything away. No one knew where this river led to, but the longer it was, the more it could wash away the traces of time.
Elder Qiu was outside the ruins.
He brought Lu Yin here, but he didn't dare to enter.
He looked around and left. Lu Yin didn't know why he had come to take a look.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.
Lu Yin slowly turned his head and looked at a wall that was almost weathered. The pictures on the wall were long gone, but the imprints had not disappeared.
He stared at the imprints on the wall and felt that they were very familiar. Where had he seen them before?
"It's the Qingming Festival. Thank you, brothers, for your support. I'll update at 2pm. Thank you!
