Chrissy's blood-soaked appearance terrified her fellow disciples. But before any of them could run, flashes of cold lights weaved through their bodies and before they realized it, they all fell on the ground, lifeless.

Most disciples gathered at the center of the formation, but some who didn't have any companions and were fellow loners like Chrissy didn't bother to join the festivities. Unfortunately, for them, they became Chrissy's first target as she paved her path of slaughter towards the center.

Her eyes that seethed with rage and killing intent along with the blood that stuck on her body, created a scene which resembled the depths of hell. Anyone who saw her couldn't even scream before they died.

Under the influence of Dan's strengthening and manipulation. Her strength temporarily became stronger than Outer Clan Disciples and no one managed to stop her advance.

By this time, Patriarch Warren and Jamie regained their composure and slightly relaxed. After all, with the scouting of the core disciples and the help of the Heaven Grade Parchment which could see through anyone's stealth. There's no way that someone could evade their eyes.

Regrettably, the two didn't even think that an intruder wasn't limited to their enemies, and no one even noticed Chrissy's killing spree as she approached the gathered disciples with her suppressed killing intent.

"What the..."

"Who is that?!"

"Someone is holding a sword and approaching us..."

"Those robes..."

"A fellow disciple?!"

A commotion exploded amidst the gathered disciples as someone at the farthest seat noticed Chrissy's presence. Everyone's eyes turned at Chrissy, including the Patriarch whose eyes widened in shock when it landed on Chrissy's figure.

"Shit! Everyone stand behind the Elders!" Patriarch Warren fiercely shouted, his words were crisp and solemn which brought everyone back from their trance.

"But Patriarch..."

"We can't..."

"We can't...move..."

The sheer fear that they felt upon seeing the simmering anger within Chrissy's eyes froze the figures of these young men and women as they shivered intermittently on their seats. Jamie unsheathed his sword and dashed at Chrissy's direction with a downward slash, aiming to decapitate her in an instant.

"You demon! How dare you slaughter your fellow disciples! Face your judgement!" Jamie shouted and sliced with his sword. However, how could Dan, who controlled Jamie from afar let her die so easily without achieving his goals? Manifesting a barrier of negative energies, Chrissy deflected Jamie's attacks before leaping towards a nearby disciple.

"Shit!" Jamie violently cursed and forcefully twisted his body. But by this time, Chrissy's attacks already landed and sliced her target cleanly from the torso as Jamie crazily howled, "Bastard! How dare you ignore my presence!"

A brilliant light flashed through his sword and numerous shallow wounds opened on Jamie's body as she was blasted towards the distance. Even so, she still managed to kill three disciples before landing on a wooden fence.

"Restrain her! We must not kill her right away! She should be one of those bastards that kidnapped and killed our fellow disciples!" Jamie instructed and the disciples who saw the gruesome deaths of their fellow brothers and sisters snapped out of their trance as they all shouted in hatred at Chrissy's direction.

Chrissy coldly laughed, "What a good display of righteousness, are you really that desperate in keeping your face? Senior Brother Jamie?" She struggled to stand up, as the stubborn light and killing intent within her eyes stunned everyone to a halt.

"You..." Jamie gnashed his teeth and pointed at her, "Display of righteousness? Isn't it right to display one's righteousnes when slaying someone as evil as you?!" His words evoked laughter from Chrissy.

"Someone as evil as me? What a joke! Ever since I arrived in here, no one even treated me as a human, All of you...All of you treated me as a servant just because of the issue of my birth! Everyday, I had to suffer through tortures and becoming a plaything for you pigs, all for the sake of acquiring the support of the clan to treat my sick mother..."

"Someone like me doesn't have any future anymore. And it's the fault of this despicable Luzon Clan...If I am to die today, then I will drag you to hell with me!" She crazily howled and the negative energies that surrounded her body erupted, invading the minds of the terrified disciples as they all started to kill each other.

"Stan! You fucking stole the stash that I hid under my bed! I'll fucking kill you!"

"Jonathan! Since you still haven't returned the fifty silver coins that you owe me ten years ago. Your head shall be the repayment!"

"Bastard, Kir! I heard that you fucking slept with my girlfriend two years ago! Come here and face your death!"

Chrissy dashed at Jamie amidst this mayhem and the two of them engaged in a fierce close quarter combat as the resplendent lights of Heaven Grade Artifacts illuminated the darkness. The disciples assigned to wield these powerful Artifacts also turned crazy as the desires and hatred within their hearts erupted.

Dan observed this scene of carnage from afar, beside him was Grace and Natalie whose eyes widened in shock,

"So this is the true power of negative energies? To think that it could turn close brothers and even relatives against each other..." Grace mumbled in a soft voice and Dan lightly laughed, "Yes, however, this scene exceeded my predictions. To think that the Luzon Clan culminated so many hearts filled with hatred that a single push from me easily overwhelmed them..."

'What do you mean, Dear?" Natalie asked in confusion and Dan patiently explained, "Every human living in this world all has desires within their hearts. However, when this desire doesn't get fulfilled, hatred will replace it. I just gave these bastards a slight push towards the abyss."

Natalie's frown lingered, "Dear, I'm still confused, what I want to ask is just how did you make them fall into such a mental state where they couldn't even recognize allies from enemies..."

Dan stretched his head and rubbed the heads of his wives before explaining, "Each and everyone of these disciples in her did at least a single heinous crime such as slaughter, **** or torturing other people to death. The resentment of those people that wrongfully died under their hands became the wood while the hatred that they had for each other became the fire that ignited the forest that is their soul..."

"Right now, these poor bastards has descended into insanity, there's no other way to stop them but to kill them..." Dan's lips lifted a vicious smile and Grace chimed at the side, "What would happen if the Elders from the Luzon Clan killed their own disciples..."

Natalie also stared at Dan in curiosity as the vicious smile on Dan's face intensified.

"Well, the hatred and resentment that the disciples gathered would simply transfer to their killers, creating a loop that would only end until each and every member of the Luzon Clan is dead..."

Natalie sucked a mouthful of cold air as she said, "What a merciless and overpowered technique..." Grace also thought the same and nodded her head. Little did the two realize that a drop of blood seeped from Dan's lips as he suppressed the urge to vomit a mouthful of blood.historical

Manipulating such vast amounts of negative energies for the first time took quite the toll on his body. Lifting his head, he stared at the distance with a pensive light within his eyes.

At the distance, the three figures of Shadow, Darkness and Mist stared at the mayhem unfolding before their eyes. Shadow glanced at Darkness and said, "Darkness, why are we not going down now? If we keep on standing here, more Heaven Grade Artifacts may shatter in the hands of those bastards..."

Mist also stared at Darkness, looking for answers.

Darkness sighed and said, "Both of you should really read some books about stratagems. If the three of us descends down right now, those brats that attacked us earlier may notice our arrival and avoid us."

"If we want to take our revenge, we must not scare them and wait until they claim their loot from those poor Luzon Clan members..." Darkness shrugged and didn't say anything anymore, letting his subordinate analyze his words.

"Ah! So you're saying that we should wait until those brats arrive and take the treasures from the dead bodies of these Luzon Clan members so that we can take our revenge?" Mist excitedly followed up and Shadow nodded his head in agreement, "I think I read some words in a book that resembles our current situation. But I forgot what it was and what it means..."

Darkness lightly laughed, "It's called, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind." Mist and Shadow simultaneously nodded their heads and said, "That's it! But I wonder what it means...Darkness, can you explain it to us?"

"Nah, it's too bothersome, think about the meaning of it for yourselves..." He shook his head and merged with the darkness. Mist and Shadow scratched their heads in confusion before hiding their bodies from plain sight.

Dan who saw their disappearance sneered in his heart, "So those three are playing the fisherman? How interesting..." He mumbled under his breath before indulging on the soft bodies of his wives beside him.
