Silence quietly filled the room.
Shen Xing listened with sparkling eyes, clearly hearing this story for the first time in such detail.
Having grown up inside the sect, she couldn't help feeling admiration for those legendary predecessors whose sacrifices had protected countless lives.
Song Meilin, however, lowered her eyes. She had once admired that same story.
She had believed every single word of it.
Now... Knowing the truth behind everything, it no longer sounded inspiring.
It sounded cruel.
Wu Taeyong the source of Pishachas, acted like a hero fighting against them sacrificing himself. When in truth, it was just a cover up to fake his death.
Su Mo and Yang Qingxi quietly exchanged a glance before looking back at Shen Kai.
Neither of them interrupted while he spoke because they understood exactly what that story meant to him.
It wasn't merely history. It was the very reason he had devoted decades of his life to this sect.
