The sudden self destruction stunned everyone and for several breaths nobody moved.
Then another voice laughed.
Hong Yao.
The surviving disciple raised his head.
His face looked twisted.
"The Ashen Moon never dies…"
The elders turned, but it was too late again.
A minute later he exploded too.
The second detonation shook the lower prison. The guards were horrified and the supervising elders stood frozen. Everything had happened too quickly. Han Yu silently withdrew.
He could have tried High Elder Zhongli too, but the man was Dao Treading Realm. That remained beyond him, so the disciples became sacrifices instead. News reached the Grand Hall immediately.
The reaction was explosive.
The Patriarch stood abruptly.
"What did you say?"
The reporting elder knelt.
"They self destructed…"
The hall erupted.
Several Peak Heads rose instantly.
