Silence ruled the HALL OF DIYU OR HELL ZEEL of the sharata clan, Three dead bodies laid with pool of blood surrounding them but noone gave a fuck about them. All seemingly cared about the deep secrets of the other, using an eye to scrutinize his neighbor to know what actual secret they had under their sleeves.

A year after Weng Xing's death
A white figured staggered towards the hut located in the valley, it has been a year since the person who lived here had gone. His eyes were swollen and red due to excessive shedding of tears and getting highly drunk. He was here a year ago and now he has returned to see how things have been put in order, his eyes scanned around the eerie valley but his whole body was still shivering in fright.
He was drunk again! he gripped unto the black jar and gulped down the whole content at a go before smiling bitterly as he leaned against the hut. His sight were now faint and blurry that he couldn't see the clear figure of a young man dressed in red garments and pulling his bow directly at him " Weng Xing?" he hic- cupped seeing the figure from a distance.
His instinct was telling him to run and escape from the mad man but another thing was gluing him back to the ground " What.... what are you doing here?" he drunkenly asked the figure who stared at him with deep hatred " Eh? are you here to find his body or to destroy his home?" he belched as he staggered straight to the young man. His robes were stained and his hair unkempt again, he did this a year ago and now it's repeating itself.
He smirked at the young man who dropped his bow down with a look of mockery " Who will know that Xhou with high discipline, a third master of white cultivators will be this defiled because of one person?" he Snickered watching Xhou grin " Jing Su?" he called but the latter didn't respond only with a Whoosh! and he fell on his knees with an arrow stuck on his forehead.
Blood splattered around his robes and his sword made a cracking noise as both of them fell flat on the ground. His eyes were wide opened and his hands streched forth towards the direction of the hut as fire engulfed the whole place, consuming him and every trace of him leaving a sulken skull and dark flesh.

" Xhou" Weng Xing breathlessly called as his heart ached in the memories, why did he have these particular memory? His flying sword was like a whip sword, Flexible and thin with his family name incripted on it. It is a narrow sharped sword he had made for himself and it made sharply smooth sound whenever it attacks...his eyes moved towards his sword down to Jing Su " I have had enough already" everyone heard him say and like a flash he was already standing in front of Jing Su.
" I can clearly remember that you told everyone that I annihilated Xhou at the valley of dead bones?" he asked with a bitter smile causing Jing Su's legs to wobble. Xhou didn't actually know his killer, what he knew was that he was shot an arrow on his forehead . That's all.
" Indeed the dead knows all" he Snickered wildly astonishing everyone even the white cultivators, what was he up to? His eyes began to radiate red flames and his flying sword started to shake vigorously causing a sinister wind to enter, pulling down the curtains and pillars of the DIYU . He growled as more and more memories escaped from his brain, the accusations, the hatred and malice all caused by this Idiot in front of him .
He suddenly gripped the body of the man by it's neck, tightening his fingers around the smooth neck while the man kicked in the air for freedom. Everyone panicked stepping backwards as the black wind hovered around the place still crashing down alot of things and turning everything upside down.
" Weng Xing!" Xhou shouted hugging him from behind, he could feel the surge of revenge emitting out of his body and the dangers that will soon occur if his inner being didn't calm down. He tightened his arms around Weng Xing's waist begging him to let go " Tell...tell them that your great grandfather is Xuan" Jing Su said in the midst of suffocation but it only angered Weng Xing.
" You... what do you know?!" he yelled trying to snap his neck off but Xhou pulled him out with a white energy " Weng Xing!" he snarled shaking the madman vehemently but Jing Su didn't stop there " You don't know who was your great grandfather? Xuan was your great grandfather... your great grandfather is the founder of black cultivation " he yelled shaking with tears.
Why was weng xing so great? Even though he discovered the secret late,he wished he never murdered them...he wished he didn't listen to his venomous heart? .
Xuan was a great ancestor which everyone, black, white , non and mere cultivators respected. He was a powerful legend with a good and willing heart to save the world of cultivation,he had many disciples during his living years and it was said he had no wife or descendants.
Just like Elder Qing Qu,he stayed in enclosed Chambers making weapons, tailsman, First class holy tools, writing books of cultivation,helping to wipe out evil Spirits in sharata clan and training his disciples.
After his death ( it was said that he lived very long and watched most of his brothers die before him except his twin brother), Most of his disciples convented his holy tools and used it in creation of Dark magic. That's why sharata clan became a clan of dark magic cultivation.
Normally, Black cultivation was founded in the exodus but the greediness of man changed the suitation, they killed people who didn't know how to cultivate with Dark magic and that's what resulted to Weng Xing's parents death.
Unknowingly to most people, Weng Xing's dad was a black cultivator but he never showed,he created weapons made for the Exodus and that explains why Weng was so good at blacksmithing. His dad was the grandson of Xuan and at age twenty,he left the Exodus to experience life in the world of light only to come back with a wife when his dad died. He had changed his name to Xing instead of Xuan making it so much difficult for people to know who he actually was.
Now the question was; how and when did Xuan have a son,talk more of a grandson and great grandson?
Silence rested as everyone listened to Jing Su, he held out a book where he was actually taking down dots and concidences to match his query.
" You are the great grandson...." he was interrupted by a yell from Weng Xing " SHUT UP!!!!!" he snarled, this Idiot what was he trying to do? weaken him to be able to defeat him? What he was, he really don't know but the fact that it was Jing Su telling him about his lineage was killing him brutally..... just shut up you idiot!
Lord Zao seeing how grieving the suitation was,signaled his men to lock Jing Su up " You alone can save the darkness that is coming" Jing Su yelled as he was being dragged out, his eyes snapped with tears and anger as Weng Xing stared at him in unbelief " Retreat" A loud voice broke the awkwardness but all eyes laid on the dumbstruck Weng Xing..... what have they done? if only they listened to Elder Tao.

Xiang Qu who was the unknown great grandmother of Weng Xing had bore Xuan a son few weeks after his death. Noone knew about this, she was the first female disciple of Bai of Qu sect and had suddenly disappeared after Xuan's death till this day and noone knew her whereabouts.
The same statics were applied to their son and grandson who got married to female white cultivators.
It was definitely a logic on how and why Black cultivators got a family with a female white cultivator which noone definitely knew about?. The female cultivators will resign from the sect to live together with her Soulmate and noone will see her till her death.
Why was that so?
Yes! Black cultivators are very powerful but they still needed a white cultivator as a companion to calm and fill them with the yin white power to wax stronger and this explains the unknown secret of Weng's great grandmother, grandmother and mother which noon knew.
And surprisedly in his turn, the white cultivator was a man!.

A week later
Weng Xing rubbed his temple feeling exhausted from the leader's conference, he was present as per ordered by Lord Zao and his existence was officially declared and passed down to all major sects and clans. Many apology letters were thrown at him after they discovered his biggest secret, who will know that the man they had greatly admired was an ancestor to the person they all killed and tagged a ruthless villian....hmmf.... everything was happening so fast and does it worth it?
NB: The steps of the invisible wind was the foot techniques of Xuan and none of his sons learnt or inherited it expect Weng Xing.
The door slightly opened revealing a black crow and white cat entering the room as if they owned the place, Weng roared into laughter as he touched his face " Xhou didn't like my face disguise at all and that's why I didn't disguise my face during the siege" he said feeling very proud but the crow snorted " Nobody asked you" .
Weng Xing lifted a spoon on its head and a struggle began, Zhou came in view as he and Weng Xing exchanged playful blows with their voices loud the Qu sect.
" Weng Xing!" a voice hissed as the door flung opened, his eyes darkened when he saw Zhou on top of his Soulmate and he could fathom the type of feeling that arose from his body " What are you doing?" he snarled, narrowing his eyes at them " Hehe .... Xhou... everything happened so fast, didn't it?" weng replied avoiding the question but Xhou wasn't going to take that.
He gripped Zhou's arm and pushed him away roughly before kicking Weng Xing's abdomen " Xhou ouch!" he cried holding unto his stomach as a smile still plastered on his face " Oh my dear Xhou, you have weakened my acupunctures" he feigned choking for breath but Xhou gave him an eye of i - am - so - done with you. " When last did you cultivate?" he snapped violently at Weng Xing who stared at him with an unbelievable expression " What's up with that face? don't tell me " he grinned as he got up before putting an arm around the burning Xhou, he bent towards Xhou's ear and whispered " You are jealous again, not that I cheated on you" he smiled making Xhou to elbow him on his abdomen again.
" My dear Xhou, how can I have a baby..." his words were halted by a figure leaning on the door with a mischievous grin. At an instant, Weng recognized the idiot " Remember here isn't thunder clan but a holy ground, carry your flirtatious attitude over there" Xhan grinned at his master who bit his lower lips. This bastard should have died! now he was stuck with him forever with this taunting and mischievous tricks.
Xhou slightly smiled after hearing what Xhan said but Weng Xing won't let it go " You and Liu Qu huh? giving each other flirtatious looks that Even I and Xhou hasn't exchanged looks... how disappointing that my hot looks can't charm xhou and you are way more dangerous than I thought" Weng Xing pointed out.
" Ain't you the one who taught me how to flirt?" Xhan asked as his lips curved into a mocking smile, Xhou turned his head to Weng Xing who kept cursing at Xhan " Me? I didn't... clearly it was in your head, don't drag me into this" he shoved his hands.
" Eh? didn't you...." his words were cut short by shadow figure who crept behind him and palmed his lips. It was Weng Xing who had done that with a guilt smile all over his face as he pulled Xhan out of the room with him " Weng Xing" Mu Song sounded amused watching the master- disciple relationship he once missed " Don't call me,I am not done with this white cultivator...eh? Xhou is that how you trained him? to speak things that doesn't please God, I am highly dissatisfied in your teachings" his voice trailed leaving Xhou in a happy confusion.... their madness was back and this time wasn't going to scold at them like he used to.
