A total scene of obliteration, without a single living breath left.

A black smoke wrapped around the scene, enveloping any any living plants in its path. But miraculously, it avoided XunMi and Ouyang HanShuang almost as if it was scared.

XunMi didn’t care too much about it. She was only afraid that she had arrived too late. The forbidden area’s outside was already like this, what could the inside look like?

On their way here, they hadn’t seen a single living animal. By the time she arrived at the cave that the two elders had entered secluded cultivation, XunMi had practically lost all her hope.

“Teacher, maybe they were only injured. I’ll go in first to check.” Ouyang HanShuang grabbed XunMi’s hand to pull her back. There was obvious traces of combat on the ground, with some places soaked in red liquid.

She couldn’t be confident in what the scene inside would be like. If it was really bad inside, her little teacher will be heartbroken.

XunMi closed her eyes and walked to the side. She also didn’t know how she would react to the two elders’ condition.

Ouyang HanShuang rushed inside, preparing for the worst. Even then, her eyes widened from shock.

“Teacher, teacher! Come in!”

XunMi heard Ouyang HanShuang’s shout. With a flash, she appeared inside the cave. Seeing the devastation in front of her, her legs almost gave in from under her.

Luckily, Ouyang HanShuang reacted fast and supported her.

The was not an uninjured part on the two seniors’ bodies. Their eyes had been dug out of their sockets. In the empty holes, numerous worms were already wiggling around.

Their noses had been broken off, their mouths opened wide to reveal white bugs currently gnawing on the insides.

First elder’s body had already been eaten to the point that his skeleton was showing. The second elder’s lower body was still untouched. Their belongings were scattered around their bodies, including the XiSui pill bottle that XunMi had given.

Bang! Her knees hit the floor as tears flowed down her face. Even though she wasn’t the real Liu XunMi, she could still felt the stuffiness of her heart clenching.

She knew that this world was ruthless. She knew that everyone was going to die under death’s sword one day.

But she never thought that these elders would die without the dignity of an intact body.

Ouyang HanShuang also knelt to the ground as her tears poured out. She had only met these elders once. But it was obvious through their one meeting that they were filled with affection and kindness. How could such people end up like this?

“First elder, second elder. I know burning a body with fire represents the person had done an unforgivable crime. It’s not an honor but a type of punishment. However, I’ll have to apologize today. I hope that you will forgive me.” Because where I come from, cremation would be a type of purification of all filth before ascending to the heavens. I think if there is really such thing as gods, they would definitely understand.

A fire assembled in her hands. This was a skill reserved for soul seniors and above. But the skill also depended on the presence of a basic foundation. In the past thousand years, no one had been able to control fire.

XunMi closed her eyes. With a wave of her hands, fire encircled the two bodies on the ground. The white bugs scurried over each other trying to find their way out.

Watching as the white bugs tried to escape the fire, XunMi’s eyes became darker and darker. With another wave of her hand, a hotter fire attacked the white bugs. These weren’t bugs that scavenged on corpses. Instead, they were magic bugs that only consumed human meat and blood. These bugs were hard to raise.

If these bugs appeared, then that means there was also an original body that sustained these creatures.

XunMi clenched her jade flute. “Liu ZhenXin, I’ll make sure you die in shame.”

Taking a deep breath, she wiped away her tears roughly. When the last flames died out, XunMi waved the bone ashes up and placed them into a small box. Since first elder and second elder liked this place a lot,  she’ll help them tidy it up.

Ouyang HanShuang quickly picked up the overturned table and chairs so that her teacher could put down the box.

With a tap of her finger, Cleaning Method flowed out of her fingertip. In a single moment, the disorderly mess was spotless.

Walking out of the cave, XunMi added two more protection membranes and yet another around the outer surroundings. If anyone wanted to charge in, they won’t be greeted warmly.

“Teacher, what should we…?” Ouyang HanShuang knew teacher was feeling unstable right now. Even she felt as if her heart was clenched after seeing such a scene.

“Sweep out Liu family, kill Liu Zhen Xin.” XunMi brought a corrosive chemical from the space market. When anything came into contact with it, that thing would die.

Ouyang HanShuang took out her silver fan from her space ring and followed her teacher as she furiously charged towards Liu family.

With one kick, she pushed open the front doors. The two of them were very fast. But by the time they arrived in the hall, Liu ZhenXin seemed to have already received the news and was seated in the highest position waiting for them.

XunMi’s jade flute transformed into a long sword pointed directly at Liu ZhenXin. Her voice sounded as if it could turn water into ice. “Liu ZhenXin, I won’t allow you to have to possibility of resurrection today.”

With a tap of her foot, she soared into the sky as her sword teared through the air. The wind blew stronger and more powerful.

Liu ZhenXin didn’t take XunMi seriously. She was already a soul senior now. She could finally finish Liu XunMi off now. Even if she hadn’t come to find her today, she had planned to go find her herself.

“Hahaha, Liu XunMi. You’ve really delivered yourself to my doorsteps. Today, you’ll be dinner for my little babies. Hahaha.” She rushed forward, ready to suppress XunMi.

XunMi narrowed her eyes and muttered an incantation while gripping her sword.

Liu ZhenXin swiftly swung her whip harshly across XunMi’s middle, laughing crazily.

“Hahaha, Liu XunMi. I’ve kill you. Everyone will die. When everyone’s dead, no one will dare oppose me. I’ll be a god.”

Ouyang HanShuang stared in disbelief at the person that had disappeared in midair. She had been ready to rush forward fight against Liu ZhenXin but suddenly realized that something wasn’t right. If her teacher was really killed, why didn’t she see her body fall down to the ground? Why did it disappear instead?

“Liu ZhenXin, you are too confident. Don’t you know that arrogance is a fatal weakness?” XunMi reappeared behind Liu ZhenXin and pushed her sword into her back. XunMi didn’t give Liu ZhenXin any time to rebel, and immediately doused her with the chemical.
