Hard choices

Lin Kai turned to his enemies and sliced all their necks off one by one as they all tried to run away, after that, his gaze landed on Du Taoyan.

"W-w-what a-are yo-you tr-trying t-to d-do?!" Du Taoyan screamed as he started to crawl away from Lin Kai on the ground.

"You fool, you still think they cared about you?" Lin Kai said as he sliced Du Taoyan's limbs off and finally beheaded him, since he was the purpose of the destruction of '3 merchants town.'

Lin Kai could feel a suction from his storage ring, collecting all the souls.

Lin Kai fell down and sat on a rock with everything coming slowly to him again, everyone died his family, the people he talked to, the people who he bought stuff from, just because he was weak.

He realized that if he spent time cultivating and getting stronger, this would've never happened.

He looked at his grandma who looked at him, then looked down, he then turned his gaze to Yu yan, who just witnessed everyone from her family die, crying, tears streaming down her face.

"Yu yan," Lin Kai got up and tried to comfort her, "there's still a chance to save them."

Yu yan got up and grabbed Lin Kai's collar, "Please... please save them. I'll do anything."

"Alright, alright." Lin Kai said, "I first need to learn the technique to create all of there bodies and then save them."

As Lin Kai wanted to go talk to his grandma, space broke and a elder of the heaven flower drops sect appeared.

Lin Kai could tell she was from heavens flower drop sect because of her pink robes with flowers on it.

If she broke space she must at least be a focus of power 1st stage.

She sighed and said, "What happened here?" as she looked at the creator in the ground.

A normal cultivator would never have self-destructed because that meant they couldn't reincarnate. But the disciplines from Underworld sect were crazy. One of the reasons nobody messed with it.

'3 merchants town' was in the heaven flower drops sect territory so they were obligated to protect it from enemy's as they were a righteous sect.

"Who are you, respectable master?" Lin Kai had to show respect because he had seen her break space, which is something he couldn't do yet.

"Are you guys the survivors of '3 merchants town'?" The women said to them.

"Yes, ma'am." Lin Kai said looking down to show his respect.

The elder looked at him, and she said, "The least I can do is take the girl with me." When she said that a mysterious force could be felt pulling Yu yan up.

"No, Lin Kai! Save me!" Yu yan yelled for Lin Kai as she was trying to resist.

"Wait! Elder! Please." Lin Kai calmed down, "Can I at least have some finally words with Yu yan?"

The elder eyed Lin Kai, she then sighed and said sure.

"Lin Kai, I don't want to leave you!" Yu yan screamed and hugged Lin Kai as she started to cry, she had just lost her family and she didn't want to also lose the person she loved.

"Yu yan, this is great, trust me, I don't know if this is just fate that she's taking you with her, you've heard of heavens flower drop, right, they're an all female sect, just go there and cultivate, when the time is right, I'll come and bring you back with me and we could have our revenge together." Lin Kai assured Yu yan with his plan.

"Are you going to go with the elder?" Lin Kai asked Yu yan as he wiped her tears away.

"Yeah." Yu yan said as she tried to stop herself from crying. "Your going to come back for me right?"

"I promise you." Lin Kai said as he kissed her on the forehead, Yu yan blushed slightly.

As the elder saw this she smiled a little, "Men shouldn't break there promises easily, alright?" She said to Lin Kai. She looked at Yu yan, "Come on, tell me what happened here." The elder took Yu yan with her and said these words to her as she left.

Lin Kai just stood there, looking at the direction which Yu yan left in.

His grandma didn't say anything, she just stared at Lin Kai and sighed and walked to the creator to where Lin family should be.

She felt like everything that happened to Lin family was all for nothing, rising to become a top family, only to be destroyed by a discipline of some sect. She felt like she had nothing to live for anymore, as she's standing there.

Lin Kai came from behind her with his sword, "Its ok, grandma. I've already brought them back." He said as he sliced her as fast as he could and killed her, it was the definition of a painless death.
