Lin Wu was really intrigued at this point and felt as if he was at the edge of his seat.
"Damn! This is some good drama! Where're my snacks?" Lin Wu couldn't help but say.
"Hmph! You were just lucky enough to get the approval. Who else doesn't know that the bloodline crystal only responds to those that have the least of their own… humanity…" The man replied.
"If I wanted to, I could have gained it a long time ago, but I kept my integrity. I'm not like those three clans who decided to give up their humanity to take up beast bloodlines!" the black robed man replied, his voice changing once again.
"I did my best, served the sect. Won laurels for it in the tournaments, gained hundreds of cultivation techniques, refined pills… all to help the sect. And yet… THEY CHOSE YOU!!!" He yelled, this time his voice turning inhuman.
The woman watched on as the man showed his true self. His right hand and the right side of his face turned into a skeletal figure, while the left style maintained his flesh.
"And for all that… you destroyed our sect? Your sect?" The woman questioned.
"HAHAHA! If I knew this was going to happen, I would have done this way sooner. If I knew, I would have killed you the day you were born!" The man answered.
The woman felt lost at this and didn't know anything other than despair and sorrow.
"Now you have lost everything, the very thing you set out to gain, you have destroyed it… by your own hands!" She said in anger.
Hearing this, the man grinned, his half skeletal face looking terrifying.
"Oh? Not at all… Rather, I have molded them just the way I want them to be!" The man said as he spread his hands wide apart.
~SHUA~
A dark wave of energy spread out from him as it started to take over everything. The red robed woman was not affected though as a Vermillion flame surrounded her, preventing the dark energy from touching her.
The Dark energy seeped into the ground, turning it foul, it seeped into the trees, warping them beyond recognition and decomposing the leaves, it seeped into the bodies of those that were alive and those that were dead, reducing them to skeletons.
Their wails could no longer be heard as an eerie silence spread across the area.
"WOO!!!"
"WOO!!!"
"WOO!!!"
A minute later, the dark energy completely infected the land and soon, specters started to arise from the dead skeletons. These looked the same as the people that had died and were evidently their ghosts.
"MO HEI! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?" The red robed woman yelled in absolute horror.
"HAHAHA! This shall be the face of the sect now… no more is it the Vermillion sect… it shall now be called… THE SKULL GOD SECT!" Mo Hei proclaimed.
The woman's eyes were bloodshot as flames of anger burned within them.
"You are no longer the same man you were… the man that cared for the sect… the man I loved…" The woman said as she then stared into the empty eye sockets of the man.
A determined expression appeared on her face as she waved her hands, spreading the flames around.
~shua~shua~shua~
The Vermillion flames dispersed the dark energy around her and kept on expanding till they reached the end of the sect.
Seeing this Mo Hei, who had nearly turned into a skeleton, scoffed.
"There's no use, my miasma cannot be destroyed by those flames of your bloodline. You gave you your human bloodline and took up a beasts' bloodline which is far inferior to mine." Mo Hei stated.
"What foolishness! And you think you are any more human than me? Look at yourself! You are a monster!" The red robed woman replied.
"If anyone else were to see us two? Who do you think they will call a human, huh?" She taunted.
This one sentence of hers irked the man to no end.
"HONG FENG YOU DARE!!!" Mo Hei shouted, his anger blazing just like the flames around him.
He raised his skeletal hand as the dark energy coalesced around it to form a black blade. The blade directly merged with his hand, turning into a single entity. Eerie black smoke rose from it, tainting the surroundings even more.
Mo Hei raised the sword up high and slashed towards Hong Feng, sending out thousands of smaller black blades.

Hong Feng withdrew a small mirror from her storage treasure and tried to defend against the attack. She managed to block most of them, but a few of them still hit her arms and legs, making her grunt in pain once again.
"You won't get away with this Mo Hei! I won't let you!" Hong Feng declared.
"Ahahah! I've never heard a better joke before. How do you think you will do that? Look around, you have no one left, no disciples, no elders, no master… NOTHING! YOU HEAR NOTHING!" Mo Hei replied in a humiliating tone.
Hong Feng pursed her lips and looked around her. The ghosts kept on being born and all of them had pained expression. They wailed and wailed, as if their existence was pure torture. Her flames that had been pushed away touched them and made them hurt even more.
"This is just agony for them… if I leave them like this, they will never enter the cycle of reincarnation and find peace…" Hong Feng muttered to herself.
She closed her eyes and thought of a solution before opening them back again. This time though, her eyes were calm. No longer was there any sorrow in them, nor was there any anger. All that was left was sheer, cold, determination.
"Perhaps this is a mistake on my end as well, and I ignored a lot of your actions over the years. I let you do things that were forbidden by the sect and turned a blind eye to the disciples you killed at a whim. Now… now I need to repent. Not only for myself… but also for you." Hong Feng said, her voice clear and crisp.
