The door of the room opened and Yang Zhai entered the room. His hands were covered in blood and there were also a few drops of blood on his clothes.
Yang Zhai came in front of Jun Seo, who was lying on the ground, his back facing the roof.
Yang Zhai activated the Bloody Storage Ka and a white cloth appeared in his left hand. He wiped the blood off both of his hands with the cloth and threw it toward Jun Seo.
"Tell me everything truthfully." Yang Zhai smiled. His smile, however, was not so delightful to Jun Seo.
To Jun Seo, Yang Zhai was nothing less than a monster right now. Everything was normal a while ago, but now.
"You monster, how dare you do that, what did I ever do to you? Wasn't I following every one of your orders submissively, so why?"
Jun Seo grabbed the red cloth and looked at it, then he crumpled¹ it and muttered.
"Tell me everything truthfully." Yang Zhai repeated the same sentence again.
"Forget about it!!! Now, even if you kill me and my whole family, I won't tell you anything!!! Did you listen?! I won't tell you anything!!" Jun Seo suddenly became adamant. It was like he had a seizure or something. He suddenly became firm and refused Yang Zhai firmly.
"Are you sure?" Yang Zhai looked at Jun Seo with narrowed eyes.
"Hahaha," Jun Seo laughed madly. It seemed as though he had gotten seizures.
"Very well then, I think you should see your family dying then." Yang Zhai began to walk towards the door.
"Hahahah, regardless of what you do, I won't reveal anything, hahaha!!! You can kill all four of us, hahahah!!!!." Jun Seo still kept laughing. It was as though he had gone mad.
Yang Zhai had just opened the door when he stopped. He looked at the woman who was lying in front of the door, covered in blood. She was panting heavily for breath.
Yang Zhai turned around and looked at Jun Seo again.
"What? What is it? Do you want to kill me first, hahaha?!! Or do you want to kill them in front of my own eyes?!!! Hahaha"
Jun Seo was smiling, but there were tears in his eyes.
"I suddenly have an interesting idea. What if I give you the chance to kill them yourself? What do you say? You want to see them dead, right? Then you should be happy that I am giving you the chance." Yang Zhai smiled. He was playing with Jun Seo's mind.
He was trying to break Jun Seo's mind by giving him shock after shock. And now, Jun Seo was even willing to see his family dying. However, this was just the starting point of breaking Jun Seo's mind.
"Uh, w w-w what do you mean?" Jun Seo suddenly stopped laughing. He could feel that something bad was going to happen.
Yang Zhai
"Activate." Yang Zhai activated the Blood Demon Ka. He activated its first ability to control blood. He then made a cut on Jun Seo's arm. Then he controlled the Blood Demon Ka to manipulate the blood that was spilling out of Jun Seo's arm.
Right now, Yang Zhai was activating the first ability of the Blood Demon Ka. Jun Seo's blood began to float in the air and began to writhe. Yang Zhai was modifying the blood.
After modifying the blood, Yang Zhai controlled the blood to float back into Jun Seo's body. After that, Yang Zhai activated the third ability of the blood Demon Ka.
"Huh, what is happening to me?! Wh,w- what are you doing?!!"
Jun Seo felt that he was slowly losing control of his body. It was like something else was taking control of his body.
"Why am I standing without my own will?! What is happening?" Jun Seo stood up from the ground and began to walk towards the door of the room.
"Now, aren't you happy that you are going to kill your own family?!" Yang Zhai moved to the side and let Jun Seo pass the door. When Jun Seo came close to him, he smiled and said.
Yang Zhai was using the third ability of the Blood Demon Ka to control Jun Seo. It was not difficult at all for Blood Demon Ka to control a mortal. Yang Zhai had used Jun Seo's own blood to gain better control of his body. His own blood also won't cause any severe damage to him, and Yang Zhai could also control him easily this way. If he had used someone else's blood, the results would not be as effective.
Jun Seo walked up to his wife, who was lying on the ground covered in blood.
"Now, are you willing to tell me?" Yang Zhai pulled out a knife from the Bloody Storage Ka and handed it to Jun Seo.
Then, Yang Zhai moved towards Jun Seo's wife and tied her mouth tightly with a cloth. He did the same with the two youths lying on the side.
These two seemed to be around eighteen years old. One was a girl and the other one was a boy.
"Hahaha, no way." Jun Seo was still adamant and refused to say anything.
"Jur Qre, please forgive me, I couldn't fulfill my duty as your partner. But don't worry, you will be released from this pain in a while." Jun Seo spoke to his wife. He looked at the knife that Yang Zhai had placed in his hand.
He could barely move his eyeball to look around.
His hand moved against his own will and was about to kill Jur Qre. However, something happened that even shocked him.
ARGH!!
Instead of killing Jur Qre with the knife, his hand began to torture her with the knife. Jur Qre wanted to scream because of the pain, but couldn't because her mouth was tied by a cloth.
Huh, what is this? Why can't I speak?: Jun Seo wanted to curse Yang Zhai, but discovered that he couldn't even speak now. Tears were falling down his face. His earlier laugh was nowhere to be seen now. He kept on torturing his wife against his own will.
Yang Zhai entered the room again and sat on a chair. He then looked at his own hands.
"How strange. Did a fear arise in me just now? Or was it madness?"
Yang Zhai then looked at Jun Seo who continued the torture with continuous tears.
Yang Zhai then walked out of the room and looked at Qur Jre. She was completely covered in blood. Jun Seo's eyes were completely bloodshot and were filled with tears. His hands were covered in blood and so were his clothes.
"So, you killed her. You said that you were willing, right? Anyway, forget it."
"You bastard, I hope you die!!! I curse you that you will never live happily, you will never be able to love someone!!! I hope you die in the hands of the ones that love you more than everything, I hope you will die at the hands of the ones who love you more than themselves!!!" Jun Seo shouted at Yang Zhai with anger.
"Are you telling me everything now?" Yang Zhai said the same sentence again.
"I hope you die."
"Very well then, you can continue with your son then."
When Yang Zhai said this, Jun Seo suddenly stopped. He looked at his son and his daughter.
"I am willing to tell you everything, but please don't do anything anymore, please, I beg you." Jun Seo finally gave up and began to beg non-stop.
"Then start speaking."
"Third elder is doing everything because of the Second Life Ka."
"Because of the Second Life Ka?" Yang Zhai's eyes narrowed after hearing this.
"Yes, I heard him saying to the clan leader that the Second Life Ka had the ability to cure any part of the body permanently, but the condition was that it must be fed with the bodies of the cultivators every once in and now. After a certain period of time, it will evolve into a new Ka that is capable of healing any part of the body, even the body itself, except the brain."
"Uh," This stunned Yang Zhai. Now he understood everything. Now he knew what was going on.
Yang Zhai was sure that Jun Seo was not lying, especially in a situation like this. And Yang Zhai also did not tell him that he had the Second Life Ka or he knew anything about it. So, there was no possibility that Jun Seo talked about the Second Life Ka because he knew that Yang Zhai had it.
Secondly, Yang Zhai understood the reason behind the killings now. He knew this before that the Second Life Ka was given by Jun Nie to Zihao De. Then he had also suspected that Ming Qi had some kind of relation with the third elder after the incident where the black-cloaked men attacked them when they were going to the Ma clan. And as Zihao De had sent so many people just to kill Jun Nie because he thought that Jun Nie was the murderer of Ming Qi, Yang Zhai knew how much Zihao De must have loved Ming Qi
"So, if we add up everything, it's most likely that Jun Nie told Zihao De about the Second Life Ka's evolution. He might have realized that Zihao De wanted the Second Life Ka desperately, so he might have told Zihao about this ability and wanted Zihao De to start killing cultivators. And he might have thought that Zihao De would kill the Ma clan cultivators, this way Jun Nie could have used this reason to start a war, his true goal" Yang Zhai pondered.
"However, Zihao De was quite clever. He most likely realized it and did not go for the Ma clan cultivators, but instead for the newly awakened Bai clan cultivators. This way, nobody could say anything. And from what Jun Seo said, the clan leader is also involved with Zihao De, but what benefits can he get?"
Zihao De most likely didn't go for the high-level cultivators to maintain the Bai clan's strength, and he killed the newly awakened cultivators instead. This way, he could achieve his purpose and also not incur any loss. And as even the clan leader was involved with Zihao De, nothing went wrong with their plans. Even after so many years of killing the newly awakened cultivators, nobody found anything.
"This scheme is really deep. They are real traitors. As I thought, I cannot take this matter lightly." This was the reason he wanted the information from Jun Seo no matter what. He knew that the matter was not light if the third elder Zihao De was involved.
"However, what does Tai Qi have to do with all this? Am I still missing something?" Yang Zhai still had a feeling that there was something wrong that he could not put his finger on. Something that got even the clan leader involved in all of this.
