Immortal Master Shen had only ever taken one disciple.
While out gathering herbs, he was abducted by the Demon Lord. Two months later, Ji Min appeared at their former sect. Shen Hanyu had barely had time to feel happy before he saw disciple after disciple fall before him.
Ji Min had not come alone. Dozens of the Demon Lord's subordinates had come with him. With everyone's guard lowered in the dead of night, the Qinghan Sect was wiped out in a single evening.
Taking advantage of Ji Min's moment of carelessness, Shen Hanyu tied him up and drugged him. The usually tranquil Mount Jianghe was now filled with anguished screams.
By the time Shen Hanyu went to help, everyone was already dead.
Half a month later, Ji Min was executed by the crowd.
The people around them gradually dispersed, as if they had seen enough of this reckoning. Shen Hanyu could no longer keep his emotions in check. Gazing at his disciple's corpse, he slowly took out the sword he had once given him. He placed the blade against his own neck, and a tear slipped from his eye, mingling with his blood as it fell to the ground.
He was the only one left in the entire sect. He had long ago vowed never to take another disciple.
When he opened his eyes again, Shen Hanyu was lying on his bed. None of it had happened.
