"I know, continuing to resist has no meaning."
"I know, I can't change anything on my own..."
"But I will continue to fight!"
Wu Kai faced a dozen powerful Corpse People alone, fiercely resisting.
In this resistance where victory was unseen, his senses were rapidly sharpening, allowing him to discern the combat situation from the sounds of battle outside.
Which roar represented someone's inability to hold on, and which sigh signified someone's surrender.
That anguished roar was the final battle cry of his master, Gui Wushang, who had dominated the Jianghu for decades, dying at the hands of Shi Buniao.
Then he heard some piercing screams, the wails of the women in their sect.
His sickly master's wife, her few maidservants, the fourth uncle's concubine...
The voices of these women were different from the female disciples of the sect, the Corpse People showed no mercy towards them, launching indiscriminate slaughter instead.
