Daggers clashed with mystical techniques and the entire battefield thoroughly transformed into an inferno of fire and flesh. Blood littered the ground along with rolling heads that depicted anguish and regrets before their death.

Dan's movements were merciless, with each swipe of his hand, a head would roll on the ground. and a headless body would fall with a dull thud.

Natalie was even more ruthless, most of her attacks while wielding her soft sword like a whip, bisected the bodies of her enemies, eviscerating their insides, revealing a gory and nauseating scene.

Her beauty that contrasted her detached and brutal fighting instincts instilled fear into the hearts of everyone as they all transformed into sitting ducks before Natalie's eyes.

"NOOOO!!! Patriarch! Help us!" The disciples madly screamed, with each limb that they lost, the negative energies that surrounded their bodies, thickened to the point that it looke tangible in the eyes in the form of nightmarish tendrils.

"Kill them! Kill them! Don't ever let them join us! Don't let the infected join us!" Patriarch Warren's expression twisted in madness, his merciless order aroused the hearts of the hesitant Elders and disciples. Facing their suffering comrades, they chose to do what the Patriarch ordered and decisively killed their junior brothers and sisters, all for the sake of their own survival.

Dan and Natalie paved a path littered with corpses and blood towards the Elders. Their blood-soaked figures made them look like an Asura that ascended from the depths of hell.

"As expected of the despicable Clan that sacrifices their own disciples for the sake of their own benefit. Even Tigers hesitate to eat their own cubs, but you guys decisively sliced off the heads of your fellow disciples..." Dan mocked and stared at their intensely trembling figure.

"Someone like you that dared to spread the energy of the devils to infect their own kind doesn't have the right to tell us what is right or wrong!" A bloodied Core Disciple retorted with a fierce expression.

Dan and Natalie stared at them with mocking smiles on their faces. Despite the fact that these disciples possessed higher cultivation than the two of them, if they couldn't properly condense their Spiritual Energy due to mental strain, their attacks would inevitably weaken and lose their accuracy.

That was one of the reasons why Dan was confident that they could annihilate them while only sustaining minimal damage. and despite the constant attacks of their Heaven Grade Artifacts, it was no use if their attacks couldn't hit their targets. And with Dan's movement techniques paired with the slow projectile speed of their attacks, dodging it wasn't an issue.

The entire Luzon Clan was enveloped in a barrier that protected them from any outside attacks, while permitting any attacks from the inside. It was a barrier condensed with the remaining power of their Heaven Grade Artifacts, all for the sake of stalling time.

Patriarch Warren stared at a small hourglass from his robes. The small hourglass shone in a strange light depicting the insignia of the Empire. When the chaos started earlier, Patriarch Warren already summoned the help of the Emperor, and the hourglass signified the time it would take for the arrival of the Emperor's trusted subordinates.

"Just hold on, please just hold on..." Patriarch Warren swept his gaze at his huddled and cowering disciples before staring at the direction of Dan and Natalie who started their assault on their barrier.

Lightning crazily howled and resplendent colors filled the skies as Natalie and Dan's Pseudo Divine Soul Realm cultivation rotated into power. But despite the Blessing of the Lightning God's extreme offense capabilities, the barrier still proved difficult to destroy.

Natalie stopped his assault as she stared at the anxious figure of the Patriarch, moving around the barrier, she faced him and said, "Patriarch Warren Luzon, can you still remember someone that goes by the name of Natalie Luzon?"

Her words reverberated like thunder and Patriarch Warren's eyes widened in realization, when he thought about the hardships that they suffered these several days ago, he also wondered about the motives of the attackers and Natalie's words completed the puzzle in his mind.

However, this realization terrified him as the dignified and composed Patriarch of the Luzon Clan lost his composure one again, "You...You're the daughter of that bastard son and that female slave!" His words rang loud and clear, the cowering disciples turned at Natalie as the latter restricted her Longinus Clan Bloodline and revealed the Luzon Clan Bloodline within her veins.

"Ah!"

"Bloodline Resonation?! You're a member of the Luzon Clan?! Why are you doing this?! Why are you killing your family members?!" An Elder that didn't know anything pointed at her with his trembling fingers.

Natalie disregarded his presence. Instead, she stared at Patriarch Warren and gave a hollow laugh.

"As expected, the mighty and dignified Patriarch of the Luzon Clan wouldn't even bother to remember the wrongdoings that he committed in his entire lifetime. For you, the name of my mother wasn't even worth remembering, right?"

"Back then, you abandoned me for having low cultivation potential and turned me into a breeding slave that everyone violated day and night. You never expected that this day would come, right?"

Natalie's indifferent voice shook the hearts of everyone from the Luzon Clan. They knew about the existence of the breeding slaves. The reason for their shock was they never expected that the Patriarch would abandon such a good seedling, mistaking her for someone with low potential.

Of course, Natalie had low cultivation potential. Fortunately, the Lightning God where her Pseudo Bloodline originated from bestowed upon her a blessing which boosted her potential and along with her efforts, she managed to achieve her current state of power.

Regrets filled the hearts of those from the Luzon Clan while Patriarch Warren's expression looked complicated. He didn't dare to lift his head and stare at Natalie's figure. Thinking for a moment, he decisively said.

"What happened in the past could never be changed, there's no medicines for regrets in this world. However, since I'm the only one that you hate, can you I ask you to let your fellow disciples go? They didn't have anything to do with everything that happened in the past..."

Patriarch Warren's countenance looked older and withered as he pleaded with all of his might: "As long as the younger generation from the Luzon Clan can be saved, It's a fair deal if I were to die..." He continued and the disciples and Elders behind him exploded into tears.

"No! You can't do this Patriarch! You can't just do that..."

"I won't allow this Patriarch! Without you, the Luzon Clan will never be complete! I'm already this old so it should be time for me to kick the bucket..."

"Count me in, warriors can die in the battlefield but they shall never be humiliated!"

The Core Disciples wiped their tears and glared at Natalie's direction. But the Elders stopped them saying.

"You disciples are the hope of the Luzon Clan, leave everything to us and live..." The Elders lifted small smiles on their faces. But to the disciples, their smiles looked heavy and with the resolve to die.

Natalie stared at them with an amused expression on her face and even Dan stopped his assault to stare at their farce. In their eyes, the Luzon Clan acted like clowns.

Suddenly, Natalie's laughter echoed out, her strange laughter filled with amusement froze the figures of everyone around her including Dan.

"How laughable, to think that you bunch of despicable bastards could display such valiancy in the face of your deaths. Do you really think that just because you managed to make such a moving scene that I would let everyone in here go?"

Natalie's eyes flashed with killing intent and the negative energies that she accumulated from the resentment of those that she killed formed a tangible aura that pressured those that dared to stare at her figure.

Patriarch Warren whose willpower was stronger than the disciples stood at the front and endured Natalie's assault.historical

"Stop this! We have already surrendered! Why must you annihilate us all? These disciples didn't do anything wrong! Let them go and I'll do anything that you want. If you tell me to die then I will die, I will do everything, just let them go..."

Patriarch Warren declared and Natalie lips lifted into a slight smile. Retracting her killing intent, she moved closer at the barrier and said, "I'm sorry but that's gonna happen. And since you guys have closed yourselves in that small turtle shell of yours, how about we do this?"

She manifested a ball of negative energies and hurled in a form of a beam towards a nearby disciple. The disciple stood frozen as the negative energy entered his body and filled his mind. In an instant, he transformed into a bloodthirsty beast that pounced on a nearby disciple.

"Wha..."

"What the hell did you do?!"

Patriarch Warren's eyes widened in shock and the disciples howled in fear and teror. All of them thought that the barrier would keep them safe from the assault of these two demons. Unfortunately, they were gravely mistaken.

Negative Energy existed as an intangible aura that could penetrate any defenses. The only way that one could stop its onslaught was overwhelm it with willpower, something that these naive and prodigal disciples didn't possess.

In mere seconds, the barrier transformed into a death trap, though attacks could escape the barrier, their bodies couldn't escape as every disciple, one after another succumbed to their desires and fell into depravity.

Elders slaugtered disciples, and disciples slaughtered their fellow disciples, all for the sake of survival. Patriarch Warren observed the cruel reality of this world as his knees gave out, falling on the ground with a dull thud.

Outside the barrier, Natalie and Dan observed their deaths with indifferent expressions on their faces. Suddenly, Dan's expression changed, he glanced at the side and whispered in his heart.

"So the Emperor's Fishermen has arrived?"
