Chapter 1073 Showing The Reality

~THUD~

The dead body of the elder fell to the ground, as blood gushed out of his chest. With his heart pierced, there was not much time left for him. No voice came out of his mouth either, as his lungs felt too weak to work.

Lin Mu gestured with his finger and the short sword returned to his side, causing more blood to spill out from the elder.

The disciples who watched everything were stunned.

"W-why… Why are you doing this?" One of them couldn"t help but ask.

They were terrified and were thinking that they would be killed too. After all, since Lin Mu had killed elders with such ease, there was nothing stopping him from killing them too.

"You"re really asking that?" As a surprise to them though, Lin Mu actually replied.

But his reply was a question.

"Huh?" They were confused and didn"t know how to react.

The actions of Lin Mu had already made them forget about some things they had seen just a few moments ago. Though on some level, they remembered it but just didn"t want to believe it.

Lin Mu looked at the disciple who had asked the question and his spirit sense quickly scanned the man.

The disciples shivered as he felt a spirit sense more powerful than everything probing him. He felt as if he was naked and all of his secrets were revealed.

"Hmm… at least you"re clean." Lin Mu muttered. "Fine… you all should know the truth." He continued.

"Truth? What truth?" They asked.

"The truth about what your sect has been doing… what your elders have been doing." Lin Mu replied.

The three elders that were still alive fell pale after hearing that. Out of the three, two were already under the influence of the Pills of Grace, while one was a junior elder who was caught on with greed and wanted the same as the elders.

The elders had been able to greatly progress their cultivation base, thanks to the pills of grace, and there was no way they would want to let go of such an attractive item at all. The others that knew of it got envious too and wanted to try them out.

"Look!" Lin Mu pointed to the large hole in the floor. "Look down there… see the heinous acts of your sect elders… see what they use you all for in the name of seclusion!"

~gulp~

The disciples couldn"t help but feel intimidated by Lin Mu"s authoritative voice, but they still turned around to take a look.

There were actually a few disciples that had already seen it all but had fainted from the sheer sight of it. Perhaps that could be a small mercy to them.

"HEAVENS!"

"WHAT IN THE NAME OF ANCESTOR IS THAT!?"

"BLOOD? AND BODIES! BONES TOO!?"

"SUI SHA! SUI SHA! THAT"S MY SUI SHA! WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU!"

A cacophony of cries was heard as the disciples saw the scene on the third floor. The familiar bodies of their friends, companions, lovers and fellow disciples were enough to give them a good idea.

"How can this be?" A disciple fell to his knees. "This is the workings of a demonic sect… why is it happening in our sect!?" he screamed.

While this was happening, the three elders at the back tried to leave.

~SHING~

But before they could take even a single step, a black spear blocked their path.

~SHUA~ SHUA~ SHUA~

More spirit weapons circled them, stopping them from moving even a finger. If they tried they would be pierced at a moment"s notice.

"Disciples of the Ripple Mist Sect!" Lin Mu called out. "Look at your elders, they dare to escape while you all are helpless here."

The disciples turned to look at the three elders and saw that they were dodging their eyes. Seeing that guilt look on their faces was enough to convince the disciples. After all, they had seen the arrogance of the elders before and the current face was greatly different than that.

"HOW COULD YOU ALL DO THIS!?" A disciple who had lost his Dao Companion couldn"t hold back and rushed one of the elders.

He didn"t even care for the spirit weapons surrounding the elders and directly punched out.

~Pow~

The punch hit the elder squarely in his face, but didn"t do any damage. The pitiful disciple was far too weak to even put a scratch on the elder"s face.

"UNFILIAL DISCIPLES! You dare attack your elders!" The elder yelled in response instead.

"What impudence!" Lin Mu scoffed.

~SHUA~

Curling his fingers, he controlled the spirit weapons and made them cut the elders in several places.

"ARGH!"

"NO!"

"Don"t do this! We"ll give you whatever you want!"

The elders pleaded for mercy while their flesh continued to be cut. The spirit weapons didn"t stop there at all and sliced the flesh of their bodies bit by bit. It was not enough to kill them, but enough to send them in an agonizing spell.

~SPLAT~

Low grade spirit swords pierced through the shoulders of the three men and made them cry out in pain even more.

"Come," Lin Mu ordered as the three elders came to float in front of him with the spirit swords carrying them.

He then turned to the disciples of the Ripple Mist sect and spoke, "take a close look, I"ll show you what your elders deemed worthy to sacrifice your lives for." Lin Mu said, horrifying the disciples even more.

"What… what do you want to do?" The Nascent soul realm elder questioned.

But Lin Mu didn"t answer him. Instead, he extended his hand like it was a blade and directly stabbed into the abdomen of the man.

~COUGH~

The man coughed out a mouthful of blood as he felt the attack pierce his flesh, bones and enter his Dantian!

"NO!!!!" the elder cried as he felt Lin Mu"s hand wrap around his Nascent soul

The elder tried to suggest, but Lin Mu gave him no chance, ripping out his Nascent soul!
