"Xueli, did I scare you?"
Tantai Xueling bit her lip, tears welled up in her eyes.
"You...will you still kill people?"

Tantai Bingtang stepped forward, meeting Gu Sheng's gaze.
"What grudge is there between Beichen Sect and Wanliu Sect?"
Gu Sheng looked into the distance, his voice somber.
"Twenty years ago, Wanliu Sect collaborated with the Seven Great Sects to bloodbath Beichen Sect, killing all three thousand people within, just to seize the 'Beichen Heavenly Scripture'. My parents died defending the sect, and I...am the only survivor."
Xie Qingxuan gasped.
"So today..."
"Today is just the beginning."
A cold light flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes.
"The Seven Great Sects still remain, blood debts must be repaid in blood."
Tantai Bingtang's expression turned complicated.
