The Duan Clan Ancestor was killed, which destroyed the foundation of the entire clan.
The Patriarch of the Clan watched his father die with tears in his eyes. He couldn't believe he let a demon like Xu Shan in his house! He was clear as to who was behind all this.
Duan Mu stepped toward the Duan Clan Patriarch. The other members of the clan didn't dare to stop him anymore. Instead, they ran away to save their lives, abandoning the clan itself.
Unfortunately for them, as soon as they started running away, they attracted the attention of Duan Mu, who wasn't in his right mind.
One after another, bodies kept falling on the ground. All the guests had come to watch a celebration but they only watched a slaughter.
After destroying everyone from the Duan Clan, Duan Mu only had one person remaining. It was the Duan Clan Patriarch.
He appeared before the middle aged man, placing the tip of his Sword on the forehead of the man.
"Mmmm!" The man looked at him with pleading eyes, as if saying he was innocent but no one was there to protect him.
With a single thrust of the sword, the Clan Patriarch lost the light in his eyes.
His eyes slowly closed, as blood trickled down his forehead.
Duan Mu killed everyone in his clan with his own hands, walking the path of becoming a demon!
After killing everyone, he took his hands off the Sword, dropping to his knees.
"Arghhh!" He roared at the top of his lungs, looking at the raining sky. The rain slowly washed the blood on the ground but even it couldn't erase the signs of the destruction that just happened here.
Xu Shan stood up. He appeared next to the young man, planning his hand on his shoulder.
Duan Mu was crying, but his years were mixing with the rain that washed over his face, making it impossible to differentiate between the two. His roars continued.
Xu Shan placed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and pulled it out, before keeping it back with him. He also took off the bracelet.
Xu Shan commented, glancing at the lifeless body in the distance, "Sometimes, being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to oneself."
"There are no truly good or bad people in this world. The so-called good people won't hesitate in stabbing you if given the opportunity..."
Duan Mu raised his head, glancing at Xu Shan. His voice had turned hoarse from all the roaring. However, his eyes appeared much darker at the moment. There was another crack on his pendant.
His previously naive face looked much different. It was much colder, since he had tasted blood for the first time in his life. That feeling was deeply etched in his bones.
Hearing Xu Shan's words, he couldn't help but blame himself. Xu Shan had indeed asked him if he should destroy the entire clan once but it was him, who had rejected.
He still thought that although his clan had behaved badly, they were still his family and they had also done many good things for them, like giving shelter to his mother when she needed it.
Moreover, he couldn't get himself to become the reason behind his entire clan's destruction. But now...he really regretted that decision.
For the rest of the night, Xu Shan helped Duan Mu bury the body of the 'mother' properly. At the same time, he let the guests handle the body of the clan members who were killed.
Since the Duan Clan didn't have anything worth his interest, he let the guest clans take anything they wanted from the Clan's treasury, not taking a single thing. For him, everything in the clan treasury was a waste of space.
Moreover, it was also around that time, he finally calculated the coordinates of the Lower Level World where the Celestial Lotus was going to bloom.
While all the guests were still waiting for Xu Shan, after cleaning the entire hall from the bodies, Xu Shan had already left the world with Duan Mu, who became much more silent, thinking that his mother was actually dead.
However, just before Xu Shan left the world, he saw a notification screen before him.
[You have changed the fate of a Child of Destiny, making him walk the path of evil. You've attracted Heaven's Wrath. You've received more Negative Karma]
'More Negative Karma?' Xu Shan thought, revealing a devilish smile. 'This is just the beginning. Let's see how much more Negative Karma you can give me...'
He stepped inside the spatial portal, followed by Duan Mu, who was carrying a heavy sword on his back. His clothes were different, being much darker.
While Xu Shan was in his ordinary Royal attire, Duan Mu was donning a black ordinary robe. The tattoo that had appeared on his left shoulder was still present, but it was hidden by his clothes.
****
Yizen was a Lower Realm world which was very unremarkable in most aspects. Even amongst the lower realms, its strength was considered to be the weakest.
The people of this world didn't focus on chasing after strength. Instead, they only focused on Alchemy. This world was known as the Heaven of Alchemy.
It was said that amongst the Lower Worlds, the Alchemy Knowledge of Yizen was the best!
However, not even the greatest of Alchemists of this world knew that a great treasure like the Celestial Lotus had appeared in this world, and it was going to mature soon enough. Moreover, the information about this had already reached some powerful people in the Divine Realm.
The day was like any other in the greatest sect of Yizen.
Knock~
Constant knocking resounded before one of the rooms in the Outer Part of the Sect.
"Aria, wake up. How long are you going to sleep? We need to go and gather the herbs from Dragon Mountain. Don't forget our mission."
Unfortunately, no one opened the door.
In the confines of the chamber, the figure of a youthful lady was lying upon the bed. Her body was burning, as if she had a fever. She was covered in sweat, as she twisted and turned in bed, revealing some fear on her face, even as she was asleep.
