Chapter 734: 14.10 Last Violet Star – Just for that reason alone.

Seeing this scene, Jin Sang’s expressions sank. Especially when among the people in the circle being protected are the ones he wanted to kill the most. The Du Matriarch and her family.

Jin Sang taunted, “I wonder how long can you protect them? The ones who are protected are the people with the most disgusting bad merits among the rest. Those that can be spared were all killed while you try to save the sinners. As expected of a hypocritical clan. You are too good-natured that you save the devils that are supposed to be dead.”

“Shut up. It’s our choice whom we wanted to save. Didn’t we also save you this afternoon?” one of the disciples said.

Jin Sang said, “Save me? I wouldn’t die from that bit of injury. I had experienced what it feels like to have my own skin sliced slowly, wounds poured with salt and hunger that you could wish you were dead. For your information, Du Matriarch and her beloved pig son did all those.”

“Not only that~ the Du Matriarch kills young female servants in jealousy. Just because they look prettier than her, she would destroy their faces and kill them much worse than pigs for slaughter. At least the pigs in the slaughterhouse can get instant death. What about those ladies? Ripped face, skinned alive... Haha~ those kinds of people were the ones whom you are trying to save now! There are devils in human skin. You fucking saints are blind to the core!!”

His eyes glow scarlet under the dim dining hall. It was so pretty as if seeing a sparkling ruby in the darkness. Jin Sang controlled two undead that was near him and gave the death order for Du Matriarch and her son.

“Kill her and her son. I want them dead! They killed my mother!!!” said Jin Sang.

.....

Grraaa~ Growls~~

Du Matriarch screamed as she hugged her son, “No! SAVE US! SAVE ME AND MY SON!!!”

“You bastard! Fucker! Why don’t you just die? Die. Die. Die!!!” shouted the fat young master in a crazed state.

The fat young master Du leaves the embrace of his mother and runs towards Jin Sang who was looking at them coldly but within those ruby-like eyes was hatred that can never be ignored. The two living corpses commanded by Jin Sang ate the fat man alive. The Du Matriarch was cursing out aloud accusing the young disciples that were protecting them with their lives.

AAAAHHHH!!!

“Mom! Save me!!! It hurts! It hurts a lot!!!”

The Matriarch Du screamed with tears strolling down her face. She now looks gloomy and unpresentable.

“My child? My child!!!? Ah!!! What the hell are you guys doing to save my son? I order you to save my son!”

“What damn cultivators you are!? So useless!!! You can even save my child! You guys should be the ones dying!”

“Just die. Die and accompany my son in hell!”

The old woman Du Matriarch screamed in insanity. She even tried to push Yun Anjie to the crowd of hungry corpses but Yun Fan pulled him back to the group only to fall in the middle of the undead crowd himself.

“YUN FAN!!!” calls Yun Anjie.

The latter just smiled as if accepting his death. He closed his eyes and was waiting for his death and pain. He had already braced himself for his fate only to feel light pain in his tummy and the feeling is the same as someone falling on him.

Blergh!

He opened his eyes feeling the suffocating and heavy pain in his body. Only to see a pair of dirty shoes and fair-skinned small ankles peeking out the ragged cloth of these low-quality pants.

Yun Fan’s thoughts as he opened his eyes, ‘A pair of dirty sandals and thin legs?’

Urgh!

He looked up to see the quite feminine features of Jin Sang. What caught his eyes the most are those pairs of crimson orbs and voices as captivating with a commanding tone.

“Stay away! Don’t move!” said Jin Sang to the surrounding zombies around them then looked down once he felt a warm touch directly on his ankles.

Yun Fan was caressing the dried skin of Jin Sang’s ankles.

“So thin! Are you even eating well?”

His words annoyed Jin Sang and intentionally stomped on him. The heavy weight on his stomach almost made him puke.

HMP!

Urgh~

With a slightly green and white face, Yun Fan felt a hand grab his collar and force him to stand up. He saw Jin Sang throwing back to his group after saying a few words.

Jin Sang whispered, ‘You protected my head and prevented me from suffering from a bump that one time. Now that I have saved you, I no longer owe you anything.’

“Ah! Wait!!?”

But Jin Sang ignored him and walked away after ordering the living dead to make a way towards the exit of the dining hall. His face turned bloodless and was covered with cold sweat. Even the red qi surrounding him started to get dim. Obviously, he is overusing his qi to control such a large number of undead.

Jin Sang glanced at the group who were of the same age as him and walked staggeringly outside after saying a few words.

“Only three minutes left before my control over them ends. Try to run away with that time,” said Jin Sang.

Seeing him walking in such an unstable manner Yun Fan felt worried for him. The moment he first saw Jin Sang, he felt that this person had been so pitiful and his fate was too unfair and unlucky. Everyone in Cultivation World knew that only those with broken Jindan (Soul Core) can cultivate Demonic Arts. This is because they need to use resentment and all negative emotions as replacements for their qi.

Yun Fan looked at him worriedly and said, “Ah! Wait for us!” he glanced at Yun Anjie and the rest of the disciples.

“You’ve already seen their real faces. He wasn’t lying when he said that this clan had accumulated enough bad merits for the Heavenly Laws to punish them like this. We can’t directly interfere. Our own karmas would be affected if he tried to save them.”

The words of Yun Fan were reasonable and the other disciples agreed to his explanation but they still waited for Yun Anjie to make a decision. Yun Anjie’s expression turned hesitant at this moment. Yun Fan can somehow guess the thoughts his friend is having.

“You might not believe his words but you will be able to believe mine. I had never lied to you ever since we first met, Anye.”

Sigh!

“We’re leaving. Get out of this mansion as soon as possible!” commanded Yun Anjie. “Escort those who are still alive to the mansion. Once he got them out of the hall safely the rest is no longer a responsibility!”

The disciples smiled when they heard what their leader just said. Thankfully, he is still reasonable. After leading the way outside as they followed the way out Jin Sang had made.

Outside the mansion, they finally saw the horrifying scene. The land of death. They couldn’t even count the number of undead surrounding the Du Family Mansion. There’s even an eerie red barrier surrounding the place and imprisoning the undead within the land of the mansion only. They could see them entering through the barrier but when they tried to leave, they were unable to do so.

Yun Fan mumbles, “What is that red barrier? Who made it?”

While in a stunned state they heard a cold yet mesmerizing voice lingering in their mind. This is communication through thoughts only high-leveled Cultivators are able to do such a thing. Only cultivators with Golden Core stage and above do.

‘Leave the mansion. The undead and sinners cannot leave.’

These were the words the voice had said to them. They believed everyone had heard it but they didn’t expect that no one from the Du Family had heard the voice. After all, they were the sinners mentioned by the voice.

Yun Fan and the other disciples look at Yun Anjie asking his opinion about this situation. Jin Sang was already about to faint as he used up all his qi to prevent the undead from catching up to the group. It won’t take long for the three minutes of control over the undead to be undone.

Jin Sang shouted with a pale face, “There is only a minute left. After that those living corpses would be able to move again!”

“RUN!” yelled Yun Anjie as all the disciples had run towards the exit, no longer caring for the Du Clan’s people behind them.

As expected those sinners tried to drag them to death with them. Most of them had already gone insane, especially the ones who took the opportunity to run out as fast as they could when Jin Sang controlled the undead. They tried passing through the red barrier but as if a thick wall was in front of them that prevented them from leaving the mansion’s premises. They could only despair when they saw that a few young disciples were able to pass through the red barrier unhindered.

But Jin Sang just stood before the red barrier and didn’t dare to pass through. He only used his hands to try the effect of the barrier but with his spent qi vessel, after living in the Du Family Mansion for years his karma had been long affected. If he still had his qi passing through this barrier is no problem, unfortunately, he chose to save Yun Fan and his friends which lead him to this state.

Yun Fan and Yun Anjie as well as the rest of the disciples of the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect noticed his actions. When his hand passed through the red barrier his face turned even whiter and traces of blood trickles at the corner of his lips.

Just based on his bloodless face alone they could see Jin Sang’s pain. Yun Fan held his outstretched hand and felt an icy cold temperature from those rough yet small hands.

Yun Fan panicked, “What’s wrong? You couldn’t pass through!? But you aren’t from the Du Family Clan!”

“H-Half... Half of my bloodline is still Du. If I had the protection of my resentment I would be able to leave this barrier without problem but... It’s all used up,” said Jin Sang with a helpless smile.

He tried to pull back his hand and accept his death only for Yun Fan to hold it tightly.

Jin Sang said, “Let go. I have no more... will to live. My mom had long dead. My sole reason for existence is revenge. Which I had already achieved.”

The Du Family members were being eaten alive behind him by the living corpse. When he saw that Du Matriarch and her son died in such a tragic way, Jin Sang couldn’t help but laugh.

Hahahahaha~

Jin Sang said, “Let go of me now! You’ll be dragged in with me!”

“No, I... If you didn’t save me would you be able to leave?” asked Yun Fan.

Jin Sang said, “Yes. But I don’t care about it. It was my choice to save you.”

“Why? Why did you save me?” asked Yun Fan as he gripped the small cold hands into his and his tears had longed to start falling.

Jin Sang smiled and said, “When you’ve prevented me from hitting my head in that tree. You weren’t thinking of anything right? You just wanted to save me. But for me... That’s a kindness that I received for the first time after my mother’s death. Even that leader of yours chose to treat my wounds because it was within his duties as a disciple of (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect and he got a few questions to ask me. Only you help me without anything in exchange. I save you just for that reason alone.”
