Jamie and the others celebrated with the Elders, but everyone could see the panic and anxiety within each other's eyes. When the first round of disappearance occurred, it was the same circumstances where they all indulged themselves.

Right now, no one had the desire to be playful. Instead, most of them held stacks of talismans on their bodies while the others who were more well-off hid Defensive Artifacts inside their robes.

Patriarch Warren sighed and swept his gaze warily over the boundless darkness outside the borders of their campsite. Despite losing his cultivation, Patriarch Warren's instincts still existed and it gave him a foreboding feeling, as if there was something out there that observed them from the darkness.

"What's wrong, Patriarch? Can you feel something?" Jamie asked with an uncertain tone and Patriarch Warren glanced at him and said with a hushed voice, "I can sense that people are watching us from the left hand direction, though I can't discern how many they are, the faint killing intent that they're giving off is so thick, as if they're creatures that ascended from the depths of hell..."

Patriarch Warren struggled to maintain his calm and wiped the beaded sweats that formed on his forehead. Jamie's expression flickered, he knew that weight of the Patriarch's instincts despite the fact that he lost his cultivation base.

"I'll secretly send some of the core disciples to scout at that direction." Jamie said and Patriarch Warren nodded his head, "Alright, also make them bring some Heaven Grade Artifacts for their protection..."

Within the next few minutes, several core disciples seamlessly broke away from their groups and headed for the direction that Jamie indicated. Their movements were stealthed and the surrounding disciples couldn't even sense their presence.

However, Dan who had the cheat of the system saw all of their actions on the mini-map and snickered, "They act really fast, to think that they would instantly send some of their most powerful disciples towards my bait..."

With Dan's level of Stealth and the inhibition from the System, no one can discover him if he didn't want to be discovered. Earlier, Dan revealed some of his killing intent and staked on the fact that Patriarch Warren still possessed his heightened senses born from his experience.

Seeing the movements at the campsite, Dan understood that his guess was right as a small smile lifted on his lips. His wife, Grace mumbled with a wry smile on her face, "What would you do if your guess failed and you're unable to temporarily separate the main forces of the Luzon Clan from the gathered disciples?"historical

Dan turned towards Grace and said, "As expected of someone that brought down a merchant firm by her own, to think that you already saw through my plans in just a short amount of time...I'm starting to doubt if I'm the protagonist here or you..."

Grace lightly smiled towards his praise before saying, "Yep, with your level of stealth, even that crippled Patriarch couldn't possibly discover you without your will, and as for the reason why you went out of your way and baited them out, it should be to increase the amount of damage that you can do without being interrupted by their strongest disciples, right?"

Dan clapped his hands and moved his hand towards his head, rubbing it with his deft hands in praise, "That's right, that's right, if I didn't bait their strongest disciples out, the seed that I planted at the campsite would be instantly neutralized, seeing that happen would make everything less interesting..." He kissed her forehead as the latter asked.

"Seed?"

"Yes, seed. As someone who cultivates using a demonic cultivation method, I can freely manipulate the negative energies that surrounds a person, with just a single tap on their body, I could amplify the deep-seated desires deep within their hearts and turn them towards their allies...What do you think? It's quite a ruthless and despicable technique, right?"

Grace's figure froze for a moment before she hung her head low and said, "Calling something like that is indeed ruthless and despicable but that would also mean that I'm insulting myself as one of those so-called demonic cultivators..." She sighed and continued, "As long as you're not harming the innocent, I don't really care about what happens next..."

Dan stared at her with surprise, "You're thinking that everyone from the Luzon Clan isn't innocent?" His words awakened the napping Natalie and she snapped her eyes open to stare at the two.

"Well, if anyone other than me that knows the truth saw what you were doing, they would judge you as the demon that should be annihilated. However, when I saw the list of heinous crimes that the Luzon Clan committed in the past three decades, It should be time for their reckoning." Grace's eyes flashed with complicated emotions.

Dan's lips leaked a small smile as he handed over Jagdkommando knife that she received with confusion.

"That knife can be considered as the most ruthless knife in existence. As long as you can stab it on your enemy, they would shortly die from blood loss." Dan explained, but this further deepened Grace's confusion, "So? Why did you give this to me?"

Her words made Dan reveal a cold gleam within his eyes along with a smile that sent a blast of cold air over Grace's body as she shivered in subconscious fear.

"It's time for us to slaughter, we're not gonna let anyone of them alive. Those that dared to hurt one of my family members shall suffer my retribution..." He turned around and didn't bother about Grace anymore as he kept observing the Luzon Clan.

His sentence froze Grace as she stood there intermittently trembling. Despite the fact that she also wanted to see the Luzon Clan annihilated, the intense killing intent that radiated from Dan's eyes was something that she hasn't witnessed until now.

And seeing that from the eyes of her wonderful and caring husband shook her world as she replayed the words that Dan said to her earlier, "Those that dared to hurt my family members shall suffer my retribution..." She made a sidelong glance at Dan before turning towards Natalie, intent on clearing up her confusion about Dan's motives.

Natalie saw the disturbed light within Grace's eyes and she approached him while deeply sighing as she explained her gruesome past to Grace.

Back at the campsite, a group of three female and two male disciples walked together towards the direction of a certain tent where someone whom they considered as an outcast, lived. Tearing the entrance of the tent, there they saw the frail figure of a young woman sitting by herself in complete silence.

"Oh, so you're there? Why didn't you go to the gathering? Are you sure that you're gonna be fine once the Elders finds out that a disciple dared to ignore their orders?"

A female disciple sneered at her and mocked.

"You know that silent figure of yours really pisses us off, the fact that we can't see through you thoughts makes us feel like you're plotting something behind our backs..." The female disciple beside her smirked and chimed in, while the remaining female disciple exclaimed.

"Ah! Could it be that you're a spy from those bastards that attacked us several days ago?!" She revealed a horrified look while the two male disciples at the side revealed mocking expressions, "Ah! So that's the reason why they easily intruded through our defenses! If someone was helping them from the inside, even a pig can sneak in!"

Despite their accusations, Chrissy still hung her head low and refused to speak anything.

His buddy beside him became irritated due to Chrissy's unresponsiveness before pointing at her, saying: "Why are you not saying anything?! As expected of someone guilty, you can't even say anything in retort much more express your defense..."

The first female disciple who spoke revealed a lascivious smile, "Calm down, calm down, since we're all members of the same clan, it wouldn't be right if we don't give her the chance to repent, right?"

"That's right, that's right, Chrissy! Don't worry! As long as you obey our orders for tonight, we will make sure that no one will ever get a whiff of the crimes that you did!"

One of the male disciple stepped forward and disrobed before saying.

"Chrissy~You do know that these days, ever since our clan got abolished, I have never once touched a woman and I feel quite pent-up. How about you satisfy both of us for the starters?"

His buddy also stripped his robes and the two of them stood beside Chrissy as the three female disciples each prepared a Profound Imagery Stone for documenting about what's going to happen.

"Sigh..."

Chrissy heaved a deep sigh, the sigh that she made gave the others the idea that she finally gave up as the two male disciples neared their naked bodies on Chrissy's figure.

~Slash~

Puchi!

Before they could even approach her, a cold light flashed and tore through the air. Chrissy, wielding her soft sword easily beheaded the two males as the three female disciples staggered backward and froze in fear.

"Chrissy...You...How dare you kill a fellow disciple!"

A female disciple exclaimed, but due to the fact that Chrissy's tent was far from the center of the gathering. No one managed to hear her crimes as Chrissy expressionlessly ended her life.

Walking out of her tent drenched with the blood of her bullies. Chrissy calmly walked towards the direction of the gathered disciples. Beneath her jet-black hair was an overwhelming killing intent and concentration of negative energies that took over her mind.

With Dan's manipulation, Chrissy's hatred, indignance and anger towards her fellow disciples that bullied her went free and created an emotionless killing machine whose goals were to cause chaos and kill.
