"Many things cannot be seen from the surface alone," Yun Sha shook her head.
"What?"
Huanming felt terrible. If it were just those Fallen Ones, killing them would be fine; they were guilty of heinous crimes and deserved to die.
But those blood slaves did nothing wrong, yet they still died at his hands.
Yun Sha grasped his hand and said softly, "Why don't you think about it from a different perspective? Those people have always been bullied, and even after coming to the Killing City, they have become the lowest-ranking blood slaves."
"They are human beings, but they have lost their dignity as human beings. Perhaps you have freed them, and they should not blame you."
"Sister Yunsha, I know you want to comfort me."
Huanming sighed, "A mistake is a mistake. No matter how good the excuse is, it can't cover up my mistake. I promised them that I would take them out and let them live a normal life."
"They are free now." Yun Sha smiled and said, "I'm not lying. They've had enough of this inhuman, ghostly life. It was your appearance that gave them hope."
"It was this hope that cost them their lives," Huanming said with a self-deprecating laugh.
"How could that be? Death is not the end, oblivion is. You truly are our hope."
Yun Sha said gently, "Only now do I understand what Kuiba is. Kuiba is a spirit, a spirit that dares to resist all injustice."
"If all the common people in the world could stand up and resist, then everyone could be a leader, and those high and mighty nobles would no longer be able to bully us."
"Even if they can take our lives, they cannot take away our dignity and freedom, nor can they erase our souls, the souls of the Kuiba."
Upon hearing these words, Huanming's eyes flickered, somewhat surprised.
He was indeed very surprised; he hadn't expected Yun Sha to say such things.
Yes, Kuiba has never been a title for a person, but a spirit.
The former officers and soldiers of Lingshan, and the former twelve demons, all represent the spirit of Kuiba.
Including Yun Sha now, they are the true Kuiba.
"Thank you."
Looking at the shattered, blood-soaked city, Huanming said, "Those who fell for me, one day, one day! I will rise again for them. This is a promise, the promise of Kuiba!"
Having said that, he knelt on one knee and performed a standard knightly salute.
I don't know if it's just my imagination.
The stench of blood in the air suddenly faded considerably, and the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed.
Yun Sha quickly helped Huan Ming up and said with a faint smile, "I hope you won't let them down. You are Kuiba, and you will carry everyone's expectations to fight against all injustice."
Huanming sensed it too, and he said firmly, "Yes, it will happen, it definitely will."
The battle is not over yet; this is only the beginning.
Yun Sha nodded: "Actually, I should thank you, Huan Ming. You've helped me start anew."
Huanming asked, "How are you feeling?"
"It's a strange feeling. I feel full of power, and every part of my body seems to be vibrating slightly." Yun Sha looked down to examine her body and asked curiously:
"Did you do something to my body? If you really want to do that, you can do it while I'm awake. I won't resist."
"What kind of talk is that?" This frivolous older sister is at it again. Huanming shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"I changed your physique, and now you can also cultivate pulse techniques. As for how many pulse gates you can open, it all depends on your own talent."
"Can I also practice your pulse techniques now?" Yun Sha asked, her face beaming with joy.
"Of course not. It's not that I don't want to teach you, it's just... that's not something an ordinary person can learn."
Huanming was telling the truth; he was using advanced pulse techniques, which a novice demon warrior could not possibly learn.
However, teaching her some basic pulse techniques is no problem. Cultivation is about progressing from shallow to deep, and we can teach her more advanced pulse techniques later.
"Wait a minute, that's not right. I noticed you open your pulse points every time you use pulse techniques, so where are mine?"
Yunsha's face turned red from holding her breath, but she just couldn't open her pulse point.
Huanming rolled her eyes. "You think opening your pulse points is like going to the toilet, where you can just strain?"
"Hmph, you naughty little brother, you've gone astray!"
Huanming shook his head, and suddenly, three blue pulse points appeared on his body.
The largest pulse point at the very front is the one he just unlocked during the battle: Facing the Wind.
Yunsha tilted her head: "Why has the color of your pulse point changed?"
"The color of the pulse points naturally changes; battles, cultivation, and other activities can all affect them," Huanming said.
"Then hurry up and open my pulse points, I don't want to be a useless person anymore."
Yunsha was in a hurry; she desperately craved power.
If she had any strength, she wouldn't have been powerless to resist and a burden the whole time.
She dared not expect to reach Huanming's level; she only hoped that she would at least not hold him back.
"What a rip-off! What a rip-off!"
Suddenly, two blue pulse points appeared on Yun Sha's calves.
Yun Sha was stunned; she hadn't expected it to happen so suddenly.
"Cheng An and Shen Po Xu, you've opened these two meridians, not bad." Huan Ming stared at Yun Sha's legs.
Yunsha suddenly leaned closer, "Little brother, what are you looking at?"
"Of course, it's the pulse points. Since it's these two pulse points, let me teach you some pulse techniques for the legs."
Yun Sha puffed out her chest: "It seems that my talent is not bad. You only have three meridians, but I have awakened two at once."
Huanming couldn't help but laugh. "You're over twenty and you've only awakened two meridians, while I opened three when I was six. Do you really want to compete with me?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Sha felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
"Hmph, you look so good when you smile, you should smile more often."
"Thank you, but we need to leave now."
Why?
"Sister Yunsha, even if you're eager to learn pulse techniques, shouldn't you at least take a look at your surroundings first?" Huanming glanced at her.
Yun Sha's expression changed, and she became much more serious. "I understand. So, are we leaving the City of Slaughter?"
"That's true for now. Even if we want to come back, we'll have to wait until it's repaired," Huanming said.
When this matter was brought up, Huanming looked in the direction of the Slaughter Palace.
The place is now a ruin, and it's unknown whether the King of Slaughter is dead or not.
"Little brother, when will I be able to summon monsters like you?"
"You're very clever and observant." Huanming suddenly changed the subject:
"But that's not a monster, it's a pulse beast! You can try it when you have six pulse gates."
Yunsha's eyes were filled with longing: "I really hope that day comes soon."
The siblings chatted casually, and just like that, they left the Killing City openly and legitimately.
Unbeknownst to them, within the City of Slaughter, a pair of red eyes had been watching them intently.
Bibi Dong emerged from the shadows with a cold snort and cursed, "Damn bastard, I'll kill you sooner or later!"
