Having achieved her goal, the young female bandit turned back and exchanged a playful smile with Shang Xiye before squeezing out of the crowd and strode away.
With a wave of my sleeve, I leave without taking away a single cloud!
When Chonghua returned, the corpses scattered all over the Jin family mansion had already begun to stink.
Not to mention the ordinary servants, even the collateral descendants whose cultivation had been crippled were so frightened that they had long since fled to who-knows-where.
The vast Jin Mansion was once glorious and extremely wealthy.
Now, apart from a few old tables and broken benches, even the better bed curtains, door panels, and floorboards have been pried off, leaving the place in a state of utter desolation.
"Retribution! This is all retribution!"
When Chonghua temporarily regained control of his body and saw the tragic state of the Jin family, Jin Jinnian burst into tears, murmuring repeatedly.
Regret once again engulfed him like a tsunami, causing him immense pain:
If he hadn't broken his promise back then and revealed that Yun Gan and the Yun family could extract spirit stones from the Moonstone for cultivation;
If he hadn't hesitated back then because of his father-son relationship and hadn't informed Yun Gan and the Yun family immediately;
The Yun family might not have been destroyed, and the Jin family wouldn't have followed in their footsteps and suffered such a calamity of extermination.
All of this stemmed from his breach of faith and breaking of promises!
He had let down Yun Gan, who regarded him as a close friend; he had let down Yun Qing and Yun Xiao, who regarded him as an elder brother; he had let down the Yun family; and he had let down the Jin family.
Even worse... it betrays my own conscience!
"I am guilty, I am a sinner, I am the one who deserves to die the most, ah—!"
Jin Jinnian was in so much pain that he lost all will to live. He clenched his fists and stirred up the long-dormant golden core in his dantian and the meridians throughout his body, ready to explode.
However, he hadn't controlled this body for too long, and Chonghua had become accustomed to suppressing his golden core and the spiritual power within it.
Before he could even activate his golden core, Chonghua swiftly rushed into his sea of consciousness and sent his soul crashing into the seabed.
Jin Jinnian's soul surged violently deep within his sea of consciousness, creating a raging torrent.
But these surging waves only lasted two rounds before Chonghua suppressed them, leaving them like a stagnant pool.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to die? You think you can die without my permission? Hmph, you overestimate yourself." Chonghua snorted coldly, glanced at the hellish Jin Mansion with a hint of regret, and immediately turned and left.
As he walked, he sneered, "I've already come here to warn them, but they were still wiped out by a mere direct descendant of the Yun family. They're a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
Hearing these words felt like being pierced by a thousand arrows. He screamed "Ah ah" in resentment, anger, and despair.
However, Chonghua calmly used demonic energy to seal off the entire surface of his sea of consciousness.
No one could hear Jin Jinnian's roars, no one could hear his regrets, and no one wanted to hear them.
The Yun family members of yesteryear are all gone.
Today, the remaining members of the Yun family all desire revenge!
The Jin family's affair caused a huge uproar, plunging all the major clans of the Danling Continent into an unprecedented silence.
Everyone was thinking:
The Yun family's affair caused quite a stir back then, and for nearly a thousand years, they have all been involved in it to varying degrees.
If the Jin family are the ones who are connected to the demons, then wouldn't they be accomplices of the Jin family?
They were unwilling to admit it.
Admitting this is tantamount to admitting they were wrong, and it is tantamount to admitting they indiscriminately killed innocent people without distinguishing right from wrong!
Therefore, no matter how much gossip spread about the Jin family, none of the major clans spoke up; they all remained silent.
