Many of the human cultivators felt pity and sadness, but quite a few smiled happily too.
"Oh! Zhang Ruochen…" Wan Huayu sighed, not knowing what to say. She felt guilty.
Her father was one of those who'd repressed Zhang Ruochen. Though he'd been under the Empress' orders and was forced to do so, he was still responsible.

Any human with a conscience would be unable to move on from this cruelty.
Kong Hongbi shook his head and smiled in scorn. "I'd thought he was a match, but I didn't think his mind would be so weak. I didn't even attack yet and he's already ruined himself."
Rain continued falling. It splashed on the ground, creating a misty haze.
