BXBX NOVEL Chapter 132 - The Yin-Yang Massacre
"If we don\'t do anything right now, there\'s a high possibility that more than half of our sect disciples on the first peak won\'t see the daylight."
"What!?" Sect Leader Su was stunned to hear such words, "What are you trying to Grand Elder?"
"Exactly what you heard," Grand Elder started headed towards the Hall exit in a hurry, while continuing to say, "The sect is in huge trouble right now."
Sect Leader and Lai Chang hurried to follow him, but then Grand Elder said, "No, if we leave, then the lives of these two disciples will be in danger. The assassins might find a chance to take out Jiang Yun."
He then looked at Elder Lai Chang and said, "Lai, go and get all the elders here. We don\'t have much time."
Elder Lai Chang nodded and headed to the base of the peak without saying any words.
Staring at Elder Lai Chang\'s back, Sect Leader Su frowned and said, "What is it, Grand Elder Li? Why have you suddenly become tense?"
Grand Elder pursed his lips and said, "What do you know of the Yin-Yang massacre?
"Just what everyone knows." Sect Leader Su replied in a matter of factly manner, "Yin-Yang Massacre was an incident which happened about fifty years ago in the now ruined Yin Yang Sect."
"Tell me everything you know." Grand Elder said.
Sect Leader Su raised his head, and while looking at him, he said, "Grand Elder, why are we playing a question and answer game?"
"Just answer my questions. You will know soon enough what I am trying to say."
Sect Leader Su shrugged and replied, "Well, about fifty years ago, a sect was rising in prominence in the Southern Province of the Xu Kingdom. It was the Yin Yang Sect. It soon became one of the most powerful sects in the Xu Kingdom, their power could be said to be the same as our today\'s power. However, on one normal night, there was a sudden attack on the sect and it led to most of the Sect\'s top brass and almost all the disciples dead by sunrise."
"But the worst part was the brutality of the attackers. None of the members of the Yin Yang Sect present at the scene were unscathed, and those who died didn\'t even have their bodies intact. The scene was too gory and bloody. It was as if the attackers had ripped apart all the disciples. The Sect\'s site was declared a forbidden region. And now, the Yin Yang Sect is just a piece of history, not remembered for its glorious past, but for its tragic end."
Sect Leader Su let out a sigh as he recounted the tragic incident which shook not only the Xu Kingdom but the whole Lower Heavens.
"Till today, the preparators of that massacre couldn\'t be traced. Even the Oracle Sect or the Crimson Pavilion had no answer to this riddle. It was as if those murderers suddenly appeared out of nowhere, massacred a sect, and disappeared in the dark night, never to show themselves again." Sect Leader Su took a deep breath as he finished his part.
Grand Elder nodded with a grave expression, and then he asked, "Now think why did I bring this topic up."
Sect Leader frowned and it didn\'t take him long for a dreadful premonition to dawn on him as his face suddenly turned pale.
He turned towards Grand Elder and asked, almost shouting, "Are you saying that such an incident will repeat itself tonight!?"
Grand Elder Li nodded his head, with his lips pursed and a severe expression.
"Why would you think like that? Is it because of those assassins? Because of what they shouted at the end? If yes, then how come I have never heard of such a thing?" Sect Leader Su had many unanswered questions.
Grand Elder didn\'t reply for a few moments and stared at the Sect Leader\'s seat at the other end of the hall.
He finally replied, "Fifty Years ago, two days after the Yin-Yang Massacre, Crimson Pavilion and the Xu Royal Clan did a heavy investigation on that incident. But there weren\'t any big clues. In fact, there was something even more horrifying that was found out, which was never shared to the common populace."
"What?" Sect Leader Su asked in a confused tone.
"That day, while looking for the survivors, the members of the Crimson Pavilion and the Xu Royal Clan\'s guards suddenly started to get hallucinations and in no time, they were killing each other."
"What!?" Sect Leader Su was his eyebrows raised and mouth wide open when he heard of this. This news was definitely something he had never heard of.
"Yes, a team of the best cultivators of the Crimson Pavilion and Xu Royal Clan became mindless monsters and were killing each other. But they were shouting something while killing each other."
And with a pause, he continued, "They were shouting the exact same words that Lai Chang had heard, \'Thousands souls slain for the Demon God,\' it was only after a few cultivators escaped the hallucinations were they able to get their superiors on the sight."
"The cultivators who came this time were at least Peak Core Realm, they weren\'t affected by anything and didn\'t face any hallucinations."
"After a few days of search, they found few surviving disciples and a heavily injured elder."
"When that elder was treated enough to say anything, he recounted the incidents of the massacre\'s night."
"He said there was an assassination, however, before anyone reinforcements could arrive, they running away, but not before shouted the exact words that those mindless monsters and tonight\'s assassin are had shouted."
"The sect began to investigate them. The sect wanted to find the assassins\' origin, but they had just investigated for a few hours when sudden explosions were heard."
"That elder ran to defend the sect thinking that it was another enemy attack."
"But when he reached, he found there were no enemies. Neither were they getting bombed."
"It was their own sect disciples who were exploding.. Killing everyone nearby."
