Afterlife Department-Chapter 600 - Success

Everything is a mess. A total chaos. This should be the greatest joke among the history of jianghu! Everyone still haven't reacted enough for Luo Zhilai's great crashing during the Martial Conference, they suddenly heard him call Jin Chong, the current alliance leader, 'murderer'! And that's not all! Luo Zhilai also called Zhao Yuwei, whom everyone thinks as Zhao Liwei, the next alliance leader since Jin Chong is obviously ill, 'fake sect leader' and 'another murderer'!

"What… what…?!" they all exclaimed. Yet, before they can breathe another breath, two figures descended on both sides of Luo Zhilai. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

"What boss Luo… I mean, the sect leader of the Luojian Valley Sect, said is true." It was Hu Tisong. "That man isn't my shifu, but my shifu's estranged twin younger brother who killed him. He was the cause of the Luojian Valley Sect's fall and the death of the former sect leader of the Luojian Valley Sect, Luo Zhou." He explained.

Everyone's faces paled in horror.

"Everyone." Mu Fan spoke and respectfully cupped his hands. "My shifu has erred, and indeed, he was the one who killed former sect leader Luo Zhou." He said and looked at Jin Chong whose face couldn't be any paler. "The one he killed was Huai Sen, the patriarch of the Snow Clouds Spring Blossoms Mountain, but he was in disguise and he is actually former sect leader Luo Zhou." He said and explained everything that happened in the past in detail.

"This… this…" everyone's faces couldn't be any paler in horror as they looked at Zhao Yuwei who is coldly, and murderously, grinning.

"Do you think everyone would believe a murderer sect?" Zhao Yuwei asked.

"Do you think everyone still dare to believe you now?" Luo Zhilai asked back and grinned as another figure descended carrying someone who is screaming.

"That's - !" they all exclaimed when they recognized that it was Jing Qing, the eldest disciple of the Green River Sect!

"Boss! Forgive me! This person is just too strong!" Jing Qing said as he looked at Zhao Yuwei's face that turned green. "His body is immune to poison… even the strongest poison!" he added and glared at Yi Bing who is tightly clutching his shoulder. "AAAH!!!" Jing Qing screamed when Yi Bing suddenly crushed his shoulder.

Everyone felt their scalps turned numb when they heard the crisp sound of bones breaking.

"Look, everyone. The Ruojian Valley Sect is like this – violent, bloodthirsty madmen." Zhao Yuwei said as he coldly looked at Jing Qing.

No one spoke since it was already obvious who is in the right and in the wrong. If it was before, they would still not believe Luo Zhilai like in the past. But, right now, they aren't blind.

"You sent Jing Qing to purposely anger my shidi, Lei Wei, so that you could have an excuse to incapacitate, or worse, kill one of the Liulin Sect's disciples so that my master would lose a wing." Mu Fan said through his gnashed teeth as he hatefully glared at Zhao Yuwei.

Everyone knows that Mu Fan and Lei Wei are Jin Chong's prized disciples.

"Master, right now that I know everything, I ask of you to remove me from the Liulin Sect, since I know in my heart that I can't be loyal to you anymore, as you are the first to break our trust towards you." Mu Fan sect and kowtowed as he looked at Jin Chong.

Jin Chong can't hold it in anymore and blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth. Everyone could clearly see that Luo Zhilai was right. Or else, why would Luo Zhilai purposefully loathe Jin Chong? And Mu Fan wouldn't lie, nor they haven't heard about what happened to Lei Wei.

All these… the pieces have now gathered.

"Hu Tisong, Mu Fan… you two are perfectly singing a song together… it couldn't be that you were enticed by Luo Zhilai?" Zhao Yuwei still insist that Luo Zhilai is lying.

Luo Zhilai sneered. "Don't compare me with you, whore, who was being played by the Green River Sect leader and the leader of the Swallow Tailed Assasins!" he said and mockingly looked at Zhao Yuwei.

Zhao Yuwei's face turned red in anger and he was incensed when he heard the word 'whore', because it was due to a whore that he and the Zhuo patriarch have fallen out and all this mess have started!

"Oh? It seems like you actually aren't self-aware?" Luo Zhilai rolled his eyes. "You hated that wore who screwed you, but haven't you realized yet that you turned one yourself?" he asked and evilly grinned at Zhao Yuwei.

Everyone stared at Luo Zhilai in shock as each word of his is a bomb after another bomb.

"Men! Kill him! Kill them all!" Zhao Yuwei roared and to everyone's surprise, the Green River Sect and the Swallow Tailed Assassins appeared and flew towards Luo Zhilai, Hu Tisong, Mu Fan and Yi Bing.

Yi Bing unhesitatingly used Jing Qing's body to block an attack. Jing Qing, after all, was already poisoned by someone and he wasn't even aware of it. Karma indeed.

"You all… do you think you all can get out of here alive?" Zhao Yuwei asked and laughed.

The sect leaders of smaller sects panicked when they were surrounded.

"Yes… what you are thinking is right… the foods you ate have been poisoned… but I am not satisfied with just that." Zhao Yuwei said. "I want to see you all spill your blood!" he said.

The sect leaders of smaller sects wanted to find a whole to hide but they couldn't do anything since they are surrounded!

"Hahahahaha!" Zhao Yuwei laughed while Jin Chong and the other sect leaders who were also poisoned now are lying on the ground, breathing weakly. "That's it… die! All of you should die!" Zhao Yuwei laughed.

"No. You are the only one who will die." Luo Zhilai spoke.

Zhao Yuwei sharply turned but it was too late. Luo Zhilai has unknowingly appeared before him without him knowing and Luo Zhilai has pierced his heart!

"You…" Zhao Yuwei spoke as blood trickled out of his mouth. He stared at Luo Zhilai in disbelief.

"Were you expecting that the Green River Sect leader and the leader of the Swallow Tailed Assassins would come here?" Luo Zhilai asked.

Zhao Yuwei opened his mouth to speak, but he can't.

"They hated you unlike you think that they like you." Luo Zhilai said. "They loathe you, because they know that it was you who pointed to the former sect leader of the Green Valley Sect their houses. Their families were killed and they were taken away by that sick pervert, tortured, and their minds and souls have become broken. They are the only one who became light of each other. Yet you – " he looked at Zhao Yuwei who stared at him in shock. " – you broke their peace once again and now wanted to break them apart." He told him.

Zhao Yuwei coughed out blood. He felt extremely pained in his chest.

"Yi Bing enlightened me of this matter. That no one wanted to share someone they love with another person." Luo Zhilai continued. "Yet you highly think of yourself that they like you? They just wanted to toy you, make you suffer the same pain that they felt in the past, which you caused them. Do you think they don't know?" he asked. "You envied your brother after being taken by a master. The former sect leader of the Green Valley Sect wanted to take you in, too, but found that you looked mediocre, so he asked you if you have friends, right?" he looked at him.

Zhao Yuwei can't speak since he feels that his life is slipping away.

"So, out of jealousy, you lead him to your friends' house and left in a fit of anger, so you missed to see him slaughter your friends' families." Luo Zhilai said.

"I… don't… know…" Zhao Yuwei spoke with much difficulty.

"Yes. You don't know. But ignorance can't excuse no one." Luo Zhilai said as he pulled the blade from Zhao Yuwei's chest.

Zhao Yuwei's blood splattered on the ground and Zhao Yuwei's body fell.

"By the way, you think that you have won the other battle?" Luo Zhilai asked.

Zhao Yuwei's pupils shrank when he realized what Luo Zhilai meant.

"We have already swapped the poisoned foods with clean ones, thanks to an assassin who kindly informed us one week ago, giving us enough time to plan." Luo Zhilai smiled. "As for you… haven't you felt it already? You have been poisoned. Guess who did it? Your two friends were very happy that you sent yourself to their door, making them not exert time and effort to look for you." he said before he turned his back and left, not giving Zhao Yuwei even just a spare of his glance.

Everyone watched him in horror as he stood in the middle. The assassins and the Green River Sect disciples have now also stopped.

"Every one of you." Luo Zhilai spoke as he looked at each sect leader who immediately lowered their heads in shame because of guilt. "I didn't save you today, but the lives of the people who have been dragged into the muddy waters of jianghu." He said.

Nobody spoke.

"You all coveted our family's treasure because of greed, at the cost of the lives of my mother, my fellow disciples, my father, as well as my father's five disciples." Luo Zhilai said.

Li Mu who has just arrived heard the word 'five' and smiled. Although Luo Zhilai hates Zhuo Xia as the cause of his father's whereabouts known and later died, Luo Zhilai still included Zhuo Xia as Huai Sen's disciple.

"I hate you… loathe you all." Luo Zhilai continued. "But, my loathing towards you shouldn't make me ignore the lives of people, or I will become like you all, murderers!" he said through his gnashed teeth. All his anguish, anger, hate and despair, now he has let it all out. "But, sorry to disappoint you all, the treasure that you all coveted, today, it will be finally relieved from falling into another person's hands and cause another bloodbath!" he said and threw the sword into the air.

Everyone raised their heads to look at the sword, only to see a figure leapt and caught the sword, before he landed on the ground and held the sword horizontally in front of his chest. Everyone watched as this handsome young man closed his eyes, raised his index finger and middle finger before he ran across them throughout the body of the sword.

They all watched with breaths held when they saw Huo Ling's hand glowed along with the sword. "Break!" they heard him said as he opened his eyes.

As soon as Huo Ling opened his eyes, light enveloped everything and they immediately covered their eyes. "AAAH!" they all cried when they felt their eyes hurt. Before they could react to what happened, they all heard something loudly breaking!

It was the sword!
