Unfortunately for Huang Muyang, this realization came too late.
His women were massacred. His lovers had betrayed him. He was heavily injured by the woman who once loved him. Furthermore, the people whom he came to help were being slaughtered as well.
Sometime during his internal contemplation, the elders and the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect had moved out and started engaging the cultivators from the various sects. Even though their numbers were less, they seemed to be possessed with some purpose causing the cultivators from the various sects to not even stand a chance against them.
One side was focused and highly motivated. Another was afraid and only cared about escaping. He could easily see the outcome of such a fight. Huang Muyang felt like a failure for the first time in his life at this moment.
"As much as I would like to enlighten you on how you were lured into this trap, I don't think it is very necessary. I'm not in the habit of revealing my secrets to even dead men. All I have to say is that you are pretty lucky to obtain the legacy from that Grotto Heaven. Unfortunately, it also sealed your fate," Liang Tianye spoke softly into Huang Muyang's ears causing his eyes to fly open.
"You are trying to kill me because of that!? I can share that legacy with you. Just let me die in peace. Kill those bitches for me and I will give that legacy to you," Huang Muyang spoke agitatedly.
"What am I going to do with that legacy?" Liang Tianye asked mockingly. "You still don't understand. It isn't the legacy that got you killed. It is the fact that you walked out of the Grotto Heaven as the biggest beneficiary that got you killed."
Huang Muyang looked at Liang Tianye in confusion. He didn't understand Liang Tianye's words. Liang Tianye also noticed the confusion in Huang Muyang's eyes. He shook his head in disappointment.
"Looks like you don't even have a clue. But, things have already gotten this far, so I can only kill you now. I told my Senior Brother, these things are just a waste of time. But, he wouldn't listen. He doesn't want any variables to appear at the last minute. Can you believe that man!?" Liang Tianye asked shaking his head.
Huang Muyang still looked confused. Liang Tianye's words made no sense to him. He didn't have the necessary context to understand the subtext in those words. To him, those all sounded like a madman's ravings.
"Oh, by the way," Liang TIanye smirked evilly at Huang Muyang, "Jian Youlan is pretty wild in bed. She told me that you never were able to satisfy her at all. Don't worry, I took care of it."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHuang Muyang's eyes widened upon hearing those words. In that moment, Liang Tianye struck without any mercy. Before he could even register, Huang Muyang's heart was pierced through with extreme prejudice.
However, things didn't end for Huang Muyang there. Liang Tianye grabbed with his hand and the Nascent Soul baby of Huang Muyang was extracted from his body and flew towards Liang Tianye's hand. Even the Nascent Soul of Huang Muyang was looking dazed at the moment.
Liang Tianye tutted and looked to the side. Jian Youlan approached him with her two sisters. Su Xiaomao was still torturing her cousin causing painful screams to elicit from her.
"He took you sleeping with me pretty hard," Liang Tianye said nonchalantly. "Here, this is your part of the deal. I didn't expect things to go over so smoothly. I barely had to lift my fingers."
"Did you have to tell him that?" Jian Youlan frowned as she grabbed the struggling Nascent Soul baby of Huyang Muyang.
"What? Can't I have a little fun? Moreover, you didn't seem like you minded when you were screaming your head off," Liang Tianye snorted.
"Hmph," Jian Youlan snorted back, but there was no heat to it. "You only care about having fun."
"Ah, don't be like that," Liang Tianye chuckled. "Anyway, are you sure that you and your sisters don't want to join our sect?"
"No thanks," Jian Youlan rolled her eyes. "Our collaboration this time was mutual interest. Furthermore, we are all righteous cultivators. Our enmity with Huang Muyang and his posy of hussies doesn't make us a demonic cultivator like you. Your sect is not right for us."
"How would you know without trying it?" Liang Tianye smirked suggestively. "Who knows you might enjoy being a demonic cultivator more. There aren't many rules for you to follow. You can do almost anything you want to. As long as you want to…"
"Hmmph," Jian Youlan snorted. "All you men care about only that!"
However, there was a slight smile on her face that meant that she didn't really mind Liang Tianye flirting with her. She shook her head and looked at her sisters. They exchanged messages through eye contact and Jian Youlan smiled widely.
"We can spend one night with you as appreciation for your help. After that, we will be leaving the Dragon Scale Continent. What happened here would surely spread. Us sisters can't stay in this continent for long."
"You don't need to worry about that. Allow me to convince you and your sisters tonight. We can see what you say tomorrow," Liang Tianye smirked confidently.
"No need," Jian Youlan shook her head. "We have already made contact with some sects in the Heavenly Dance Continent. We feel that it would be better to have a fresh start in a new location. With the cultivation of us sisters, it wouldn't be hard for us to establish ourselves in this world."
"What about your future?" Liang Tianye asked curiously.
"That's what this is for," Jian Youlan shook the Nascent Soul of Huang Muyang in her hand. "With his Nascent Soul in our possession, we can extract that legacy from him. It is enough for all our sisters to break through to the next stage. Moreover, we have some unfinished business with him."
Just then, one of Jiang Youlan's sisters whispered in her ear causing her smile to become even brighter. She looked down at the Nascent Soul in her hand and looked at Liang Tianye with a hungry look.
She moved closer to Liang Tianye and whispered in his ears.
"What do you think about fucking us four and making his Nascent Soul watch tonight? Do you think you can put on a good show?"
Hearing those words, Liang Tianye only smirked in reply.
"We will see if you four can keep up. Last time, you didn't last long!"
Liang Tianye's words caused bell-like laughter to echo in the area. The laughter along with the screams of Su Xiaomao's cousin caused a strange accompaniment to the massacre that was unleashed in that place.
Little did the four sisters know that this moment marked the beginning of world-changing events that will take place soon. By the time they realized this, several years would have already passed by and they would have already stepped into the Spirit Severance realm by then.

Just as Liang Tianye revealed himself to the cultivators present near the forest, Sect Master Yun looked at the approaching First Grand A in a solemn manner in the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe knew that this was one confrontation he had to face before he began executing all his plans. If not for that, he wouldn't have agreed to this meeting at all. He knew that the person he needed to convince the most to step aside wasn't the other elders or disciples. It was this old man who was making his way here.
Taking a deep breath, he reviewed his plans for making this old man capitulate. He double-checked the plans in his mind and found them really solid. Furthermore, he still had the trump card he had yet to use.
Looking at Feng Feixuan and Elder Xu who were accompanying the old man, Sect Master Yun felt his lips twitching. A bizarre emotion flashed past his eyes. He took a deep look at Elder Xu and stood silently for a moment.
Then, his eyes flashed toward Feng Feixuan.
Looking at her, Sect Master Yun didn't know whether to laugh or be angry. His Junior Brother had been meticulous in his actions all along. Apart from that one mistake he made near the Grotto Heaven, he hadn't done anything to jeopardize the plans much.
However, his Junior Brother's fixation on Elder Feng made him a little irritated. As a member of the illustrious Yun clan, he had been trained to look at everyone as potential enemies or allies from a young age. There was no middle ground and sentiments to be had when it came to people.
He really couldn't see what his Junior Brother saw in Elder Feng. The woman was pure and pure scorpion. Cold-blooded and vicious to boot. She was someone who hid her stinger very well. However, when the time came she was way too brutal to her enemies and allies alike.
If it had been him, he wouldn't have picked such a woman to make his subordinate. But, his Junior Brother liked her way too much and had even assured him that he had her handled well.
But, her recent actions were sending contradictory messages to him. He had thought that she had come to their side after she went out and helped her disciple go to a remote location to develop. But, soon after that, she was coming to his place in the company of the old man. He didn't know what kind of message was she sending to him. It both irritated him and intrigued him in equal measure.
Still, the time has also come to see where her loyalty lies. If she was going to stand with the First Grand Elder and wouldn't comply, he wouldn't mind taking this headache out of the board himself. This might cause some dissatisfaction with his Junior Brother, but the overall plan was far too important to give way to sentiments.
"Well, old man, I hope you are sensible. If not, you can't blame me either. The time has come for us to have a showdown…"
