CHAPTER 650: DESTROYING THE BLOOD SECT

Whoosh!

“Ahhhh!”

Bang!

“Aaaaaggghhh!”

Blood and body parts scattered all over the place as Yuan continued to swing the Empyrean Overlord without mercy.

Tens— hundreds of disciples from the Blood Sect were slaughtered at the hands of Yuans, yet their Sect Master, Lord Blood, remained hovering in the sky without moving a single finger, silently watching his disciples getting slaughtered in the bulk with a cold gaze.

Of course, he never really expected the disciples that were mostly Spirit Apprentices and Spirit Warriors to capture Yuan, who was a Spirit Grandmaster.

Even if he had tens of thousands of disciples, it would not be enough for a Spirit Grandmaster.

His only motive was to tire out Yuan with his disciples so that he would have a better time taking him down later. In other words, he was sacrificing his own disciples for himself.

As for the disciples, they had no choice but to fight Yuan, even if they might die. After all, if they don’t listen to Lord Blood, they will definitely die at the hands of their own Sect Master.

“Get him! He won’t be able to defeat all of us!”

“For Lord Blood!”

The disciples continued to rush at Yuan despite his overwhelming presence.

“Heavenly Domain!”

A profound aura suddenly appeared around Yuan, instantly pressuring before flattening the disciples there into meat paste.

Blood splattered all over Yuan’s body and face, but when the blood touched his Golden Dragon Robes, they would slide right off, almost as though it was coated in a thick layer of liquid-resistance substance.

However, the blood on his face remained, and some of it even got into his eyes, making it seem as though he was crying blood.

“Haaaa!”

Yuan swung again, and another dozen people died.

‘Ah… What exactly am I doing…? I can’t feel anything…’ Yuan wondered inwardly he as subconsciously swung the Empyrean Overlord in every direction.

‘There’s something hitting my face… Is it raining?’

‘Why am I doing this again?’

‘You’re doing this to protect the innocent… Just like you always have…’ Another voice suddenly resounded in his head.

‘Who are you?’

‘Me? You should already know the answer to that question.’ The voice responded.

And it continued, ‘The sensation of their flesh tearing apart… The smell of blood… The profound atmosphere… Their blood-curdling screams… Remember it… Remember it all…’

Flashbacks began occurring inside Yuan’s head, but he still managed to fight the Blood Sect.

After an unknown amount of time have passed, Yuan snapped out of his flashbacks, finding himself in the middle of a bloodbath.

All of the Blood Sect disciples beside the Sect Master had been wiped out before he realized.

Yuan lifted his hands to see that both his hands were covered in blood. His clothes were fine without a drop of blood on them for some reason, but his long hair was dripping in blood.

The stench of blood and spilled organs assaulted Yuan’s nose, causing his body to tremble, but it was not fear or shock that he was feeling— it was the feeling of nostalgia.

“What are you going to do now that all of your disciples are dead?” Yuan slowly lifted his head to look at Lord Blood with a profound gaze.

“I am going to kill you now for taking away my son from me, of course.”

Lord Blood descended from the sky with a red sword in his grasp that pulsated as though it had veins hidden within.

He pointed the sword at Yuan as dozens of veins appeared on his head, all looking as though it could pop at any second.

“YOU. WILL. PAY. FOR. KILLING. MY. SON!” He growled in a slow and cold voice.

Yuan momentarily ignored Lord Blood and turned to look at the three stone tablets not far away.

“You will also pay… for killing my friend.”

Yuan tightened his grasp on the Empyrean Overlord.

“DIE FOR ME!”

Lord Blood rushed at Yuan a moment later.

Yuan welcomed his blade with a grim smile.

Clang!

Clang!

They fought back and forth for many minutes with neither of them getting a lead on the other.

Of course, Yuan was going easy on Lord Blood, as he could easily kill someone at Lord Blood’s level with ease.

‘Why?! Why isn’t he tired after fighting thousands of Cultivators?! Does he have unlimited stamina or something?!’ Lord Blood was shocked inwardly when he cannot gain an advantage over Yuan.

‘I am one level above him, and he’s fought thousands of Cultivators! Why is he still able to fight me?!’

“Thousands of people died because of you.” Yuan suddenly spoke.

“And no, I am not talking about the ‘people’ around us. They don’t deserve to be called people. They’re animals— beasts.”

“Shut up! I kill whoever I want to kill! I am the Sect Master of the Blood Sect! Whoever lives or dies is within my discretion!” Lord Blood laughed.

Yuan released a deep sigh after hearing his words.

“You’re really just a beast— nothing more…”

Yuan suddenly distanced himself from Lord Blood and stopped moving.

“Do you want to know how your son died?” He asked after a moment of silence.

Lord Blood narrowed his eyes that were filled with hatred.

“This is what killed him.”

Yuan raised his sword into the air for a moment before sending it downwards.

“Heaven Splitting Sword Strike!”

“This is…”

Lord Blood was too shocked to react, allowing the beam of light to consume his body, and almost instantaneously, his body disappeared with the light.

Yuan released a deep and profound sigh of relief after killing Lord Blood.

Suddenly—

After all of the notifications came and went, Yuan looked around the place and pondered for a moment.

Sometime later, he began walking around the place, picking up the spatial rings and pouches that no longer had an owner.

‘I am currently short on money, and I cannot rely on Feng Feng forever…’

Of course, Yuan hoped to sell these spatial rings and the treasures inside for some gold later.

After gathering all of the spatial rings he could find, including Lord Blood’s spatial ring, Yuan quietly left the scene and made his way back to Pang City.

“I-It’s the Blood Sect!”

When the guards saw Yuan’s bloody appearance, they immediately mistook him for someone in the Blood Sect and drew their weapons at him, yet their legs couldn’t help but shake uncontrollably.

“Calm down. It’s me, Yuan.” He said to them.

“T-The Hero? W-Why is your appearance like that? What happened to you?” They asked him in a trembling voice.

“I had some business to settle with the Blood Sect. That’s all,” he said in a calm voice.

“T-That’s all?” The guards exchanged dumbfounded glances with each other.

“I’d like to return to the Luo Family and quickly wash myself if you don’t mind.”

“R-Right away!” The guards immediately allowed him into the city.

Yuan didn’t say anything else and made his way back to the Luo Family, where Xiao Hua and the others were waiting.

“Brother Yuan…”

“Young Master…”

“Yuan…”

His companions were clearly shocked speechless by Yuan’s bloody appearance.

“Don’t worry, this isn’t my blood. I will explain everything later, but right now, I need to use the bathroom.”

The three of them could only nod their heads in silence.

After entering the bathroom, Yuan would proceed to spend almost two hours washing the blood off his body and hair.

Once he was done, he sat before the Luo Family and the others in another room.

“D-Daoist Yuan… What happened?” Lord Luo asked him.

Yuan didn’t immediately respond. Instead, he retrieved Lord Blood’s spatial ring and a bloodied medallion, which read ‘Blood Sect Authority’.

“T-That’s something only the Sect Master of the Blood Sect should have! Why do you have that?!” Lord Luo exclaimed in a terrified voice when he saw the medallion.

“I killed him and took it from him,” Yuan responded in a calm voice.

“Y-You killed Lord Blood? But his disciples— the Blood Sect will…”

“The Blood Sect won’t do anything to me… Since I killed most of if not all of their disciples as well.”

“…”

The room turned silent after Yuan finished his sentence, and everyone there could only stare at him with clear disbelief on their faces.

“This is what happened…”

Yuan then explained the situation to them and how he fought against the entire Blood Sect by himself.
