ADAPTED FROM THE WEBCOMIC YI REN ZHI XIA

THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION

ALL ACTIONS AND ABILITIES PERFORMED SHOULD NOT BE IMITATED

The sect leader is here.

Everyone, stand in line to welcome our new sect leader.

Everyone,

would you like to join me

in recreating

the true Sinister Pleasure?

Lyu Huan,

this day has finally come.

TEN YEARS AGO

Lyu Huan, come after me.

LYU HUAN, 10 YEARS OLD

Lyu Liang, wait for me!

LYU LIANG, 11 YEARS OLD

Lyu Liang, I'm going to overtake you!

Go faster!

Not so fast, Lyu Huan.

I'm catching up!

Nice job!

Impressive!

Lyu Huan, don't be sad.

I'll let you win from now on.

Really?

Lyu Liang, it's eight o'clock.

Hurry! Great-grandpa set our curfew at eight!

Why did they leave?

Outside the pavilion

By the ancient path

The green grass joins the...

We are in big trouble!

No, you are in big trouble.

Great-grandpa never scolds me.

The headmaster will do an inspection tomorrow,

so we cleaned the school tonight.

Lyu Liang, we are from the Lyu family.

Do you think lying will work?

Lyu Gong will draw your memories from this afternoon to check.

Then what should I do?

Come closer. I'll teach you a trick.

-Go faster... -I'm catching up...

Lyu Liang,

what do I have in my hand?

It's the memory of us

passing 20 levels in the racing game.

Lyu Liang, what did we do this afternoon?

This afternoon?

Didn't we have class?

Why can't I remember?

Lyu Liang,

look.

Aren't these our memories from this afternoon?

I pulled this out of your head earlier.

I have erased

the memories

in your head.

How can that be?

The Soul Whisperer

can only extract memories.

It can't erase memories in the head.

Not even Lyu Gong knows how to do it.

The Lyu family's Soul Whisperer can't do this.

The Lyu family isn't the only one that practices Soul Whisperer.

Who did you learn it from?

An old lady.

That was the first time I discovered

the secret behind Soul Whisperer.

It was also the secret that the Lyu family had kept

for years from the Outsiders' world.

LYU'S FAMILY MANSION

Lyu Liang, you had better be honest with me.

Where did you go this afternoon?

I don't remember.

I must have been in class.

You've gotten really smug now.

You can't even be bothered to make up a lie.

Then I'm going to see what you were up to.

Lyu Gong, it hurts.

Lyu Gong,

you are still so clumsy

in using Soul Whisperer.

Can't you do it stealthily?

As expected, I can only count on Lyu Liang and Lyu Huan

in your generation.

Hello, Great-grandpa.

Lyu Huan,

why are you only having your meal now?

I just came back,

so I got it from the kitchen.

You shouldn't be eating cold food.

I'll make you something hot and fresh.

It's fine, Great-grandpa.

I'm almost done eating.

This isn't right.

Your memories

from this afternoon are gone.

Did you erase them?

I really don't remember.

Turn your hand.

Three, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Okay, students. Dismissed.

Look. His memories from this afternoon are gone.

You must have broken those memories.

See?

I always told you to practice,

but you refused.

Now you can't even do

such a simple thing.

Who is to blame?

Get up.

I'll let you off today.

Huanhuan,

I'll make you something hot to eat.

Does your head still hurt?

I'm much better now.

Lyu Huan, what's going on?

What is this?

You'll know once I put it back in.

And there's this too.

These are the remaining coins from this afternoon.

Hold onto them.

What's wrong?

You mentioned an old lady last night.

Who is it?

Where is that old lady?

Is she related to the Lyu family?

I should have

erased that part yesterday

before returning your memories.

Stop asking.

I won't tell you.

You mustn't tell anyone either.

Pinky promise.

Don't tell anyone for the rest of your life.

I've been pondering a question since last night.

This is my skin and body,

while the Sprite is my memories of over ten years.

So it's me, Lyu Liang, right?

This is the memory I have erased.

Part of the glass is now empty.

What if the memories I pour back in aren't mine

but yours?

In that case,

what is this now?

Is it still Lyu Liang?

It tastes like Sprite.

It's still Lyu Liang.

What if I empty all the memories in my life?

Then I pour in your memories.

Now, this glass holds Cola.

They are your memories.

But the glass belongs to me.

So is this Cola or Sprite?

Is it you, Lyu Huan,

or me, Lyu Liang?

DUANMU YING

Who told you this?

My brother, Lyu Liang.

I named it the Cola-Sprite Theory.

Lyu Liang.

What does he call Lyu Ci?

The same as me.

We call him Great-grandpa.

The fourth generation of the Lyu family looks promising.

You don't say.

My brother Lyu Wen's baby

was born this morning.

I will be an aunt from now on.

The fifth generation is here now.

The fifth generation?

He should be coming today.

Hold her.

Great-grandpa,

whenever the Lyu family

has a newborn baby,

you place them in the wine cellar.

Why do you do that?

Don't ask why.

Just wait here.

Great-grandpa,

do you bathe the baby in some wine

so they can possess the Soul Whisperer?

Great-grandpa, did I get it right?

Lyu Gong,

have you entered the wine cellar before?

Was my guess right?

Have you been down there before?

I haven't.

That was all just a guess.

Madam,

how are you related

to my great-grandpa?

Why does he keep you locked up in here?

Listen carefully.

I'm not some good old lady

or granny.

The Lyu family and I

are sworn enemies.

If you come here again...

I will kill you one day.

Quickly go and hide.

Take a look.

You didn't take

any of the tonic that I brought you.

You need to get enough nutrients.

You are a woman,

but you are so much tougher than Feng Tianyang.

Now that I think about it,

I have taken care of you for almost 60 years now.

You are 80 this year, aren't you?

I remember when you first came into the Lyu family,

you refused to say a word

about the Double Quan Palm.

If it were someone else,

I would have killed you long ago.

But I was soft-hearted.

I let you live.

I took care of you.

I couldn't bear to let you die.

Now it seems

that good things do happen to good people.

My efforts for you

were not in vain at last.

It has been so many years since the Jiashen Calamity happened.

I finally figured it out.

The Double Quan Palm

isn't some secret manual.

When I forced you to write it down

so my family can practice it,

you weren't able to write it.

That's because it is something

that comes from the blood.

If descendants of the Lyu family

had your blood,

they would master the Double Quan Palm.

It's too late for me.

It's also too late

for my children.

Since the Lyu family's third generation,

I have been thinking.

How can I make them

have your blood?

I cannot let you die

because descendants of the Lyu family

need to have your blood.

I kept experimenting

and trying.

By Lyu Gong's generation,

I have greatly succeeded.

Especially Lyu Liang.

He is able to erase memories.

However,

I changed its name.

I named it Soul Whisperer.

This amount of blood should be enough

for a 3,7 kg baby.

You must take care of yourself.

Once the baby is a month old,

I will need even more blood.

I said all that to you just now

because I was hoping you could tell me

all that the Double Quan Palm can do.

Since it can erase memories,

can it also alter memories?

And eventually,

can it create a completely new person?

Whether it can erase memories

or alter memories,

those aren't from the blood.

Those have to be learned.

Nonsense.

Then how come Lyu Liang knows it?

Go and ask him.

I will never tell you.

Don't think I won't kill you

just because you are important!

Listen.

The Double Quan Palm has now been passed down

to the Lyu family's fifth generation!

From now on, the Lyu family

can give blood to the next generation on our own.

I can kill you anytime.

But anyway,

I should thank you for living until 80.

You have provided for five generations of the Lyu family.

Because of you,

every drop of blood of the Lyu family

has become very precious.

Very precious indeed.

Come out.

Madam,

did I also get a blood transfusion back then?

Do I also have your blood in me?

I had never asked you

for your name.

Lyu Huan. That's my name.

Lyu Huan.

Come closer.

Let me take a look at you.

Earlier, you told me

about the Cola-Sprite Theory.

My mind was a mess earlier.

I didn't catch what you said.

Can you tell me about it again?

LYU ANCESTRAL HALL

Lyu Huan, where were you just now?

What is everyone waiting for?

For Great-grandpa to name the baby.

Every time,

we have to wait half an hour for that.

LYU ANCESTRAL HALL

The baby is here.

-There they are. -What is the baby's name?

Ying.

The name of my child is Lyu Ying.

Please take your seats, everyone.

-Okay. -Good!

Lyu Huan, the banquet is starting!

I didn't pay much attention

to Lyu Huan's strange behavior that day.

But what happened next

changed everything for me.

That's what happened.

What? Lyu Huan was pushed off the cliff by Lyu Liang?

They can't even find her body?

In our family, besides Lyu Huan,

the most gifted practitioner of Soul Whisperer

is Lyu Liang.

That kid wouldn't have killed her

due to jealousy, would he?

Where is Lyu Liang right now?

Lyu Gong brought him back to the ancestral hall.

What should we do with him?

I will give the family an answer.

Seventh Aunt.

Ask Third Uncle to come to the ancestral hall.

How did it go?

I've questioned him all night,

but he refused to say anything.

I even extracted his memory qi orb.

Look.

Just like last time,

it's empty with no memories.

Lyu Liang,

tell me the truth.

How did you push Huanhuan off the cliff?

Great-grandpa, I really don't remember.

Is Lyu Huan really dead?

She is!

You killed Lyu Huan!

Lyu Huan.

Lyu Huan.

Lyu Liang.

Look up.

Who taught you

how to erase memories?

What are you talking about?

Stop playing dumb.

You keep losing your memories.

Great-grandpa even blamed me for messing it up last time.

Great-grandpa, I really don't remember.

Lyu Huan and I are the closest.

I would never hurt her.

That's right. Third Uncle, Seventh Aunt.

You two were there that day.

Tell them

whether I am being falsely accused.

Third Uncle, Seventh Aunt.

Please.

Show your qi orbs.

Let him see the truth for himself.

We were harvesting in the mountains at the time.

Lyu Liang! Lyu Huan!

It's dangerous! Be careful!

At first,

we didn't notice anything strange.

But Lyu Liang suddenly pushed Lyu Huan.

How can that be?

How could I possibly push Lyu Huan off the cliff?

Great-grandpa,

he should be punished

according to the family rules.

No.

He cannot die.

Every drop of blood of the Lyu family

is very precious.

Lock him up for now.

Lyu Huan.

Lyu Huan.

Lyu Liang,

I have erased

the memories

in your head.

How can that be?

The Lyu family's Soul Whisperer can't do this.

The Lyu family isn't the only one that practices Soul Whisperer.

Who did you learn it from?

An old lady.

I had indeed lost that part of my memory.

But how could I possibly kill Lyu Huan?

At the time, everyone in the Lyu family

blamed me for Lyu Huan's death.

They kept me locked up in the cellar at the mansion.

They forced me to admit I killed her.

LYU LIANG, 20 YEARS OLD

During those long and dreadful days,

I was waiting for an opportunity.

On the day of the family dinner,

Lyu Gong came to mock me.

Finally, the moment had come.

Lyu Liang,

it has been years.

You still refuse to admit it.

You would rather be locked up here

than say a word.

Why does the Lyu family have someone like you?

Lyu Liang.

It's okay.

If you refuse to admit it,

we'll keep you locked up in here until you do.

From that moment on,

I was determined

to find Lyu Huan

and the truth behind what happened back then.

All of this is connected

to the old lady that Lyu Huan mentioned.

Where did she and Lyu Huan go?

I was determined

to find the truth behind that incident.

In order to find the truth,

I joined Sinister Pleasure.

Lyu Liang from the Lyu Village.

You killed your younger sister,

thus becoming the Lyu family's strongest Soul Whisperer practitioner.

You even ran away from home.

The entire Outsiders' world is looking for you.

That's impressive, Lyu Liang.

You're crazier than the members of Sinister Pleasure.

I want to become a member.

Do you really want to join Sinister Pleasure?

I think you just want Sinister Pleasure's protection.

Can't I?

I'm sure my Soul Whisperer will come in handy one day.

If you can't make the call,

get the Interim Leader.

There's no need for that.

You can join Sinister Pleasure.

How do I do that?

As long as you declare yourself

a member of Sinister Pleasure,

Sinister Pleasure will accept you.

Is it that simple?

It's that simple.

I have always been aware

that it would be difficult to achieve

what I want to do on my own.

Joining Sinister Pleasure

was the most suitable move

to realize all my plans.

That's why I hid in the organization.

Be it Interim Leader

or Sinister Pleasure's plans,

it was all part of my plan.

I did it!

Through unlocking the memories of Zhang Huaiyi and Tian Jinzhong,

I basically confirmed my speculations.

The Lyu family's Soul Whisperer

is indeed closely connected

to the Jiashen Calamity.

Sinister Pleasure was gone.

All I could do was hide.

I no longer had the strength to keep finding the truth.

This day still came eventually.

I had no choice but to return to that place.

What

was the Double Quan Palm.

Great-grandpa.

Just when I thought

that all my plans

had to end here,

perhaps I received a blessing from God.

I was reborn

in darkness.

Even though you killed Lyu Huan,

I'm sure you didn't mean it.

I didn't do it!

I sincerely wished that you weren't the killer.

You deserve to die for betraying your clan.

What is the Double Quan Palm?

This is the Lyu family's biggest secret.

You must protect it.

He cannot die.

Every drop of blood of the Lyu family

is very precious.

The Double Quan Palm

is something that comes from the blood.

Lyu Gong.

Lyu Gong?

Lyu Liang.

No.

This is impossible.

You grew back your limbs.

How did you grow back your limbs?

You're not Lyu Liang.

You're not him!

You punk.

Do you think you're that great now?

How did a stupid and filthy old fool like you

become one of the Ten Elders?

Have you heard of this saying?

"Living on to old age

is to be a pest."

You cut off my limbs,

but it became my chance

to obtain the Double Quan Palm.

You don't have to glare at me like that.

My hands and legs

don't belong to the Lyu family anymore.

Let me show you

the true

Double Quan Palm.

ONE OF THE EIGHT SUPREMES

DOUBLE QUAN PALM

You stole Duanmu Ying's Double Quan Palm,

but you barely scratched the surface.

The old lady whom Lyu Huan talked about

was actually Duanmu Ying.

Weren't you eager to obtain the Double Quan Palm?

I'll tell you now.

Not only can the Double Quan Palm control memories,

but it also allows the body

to regenerate.

Go.

Call everyone to the ancestral hall.

Understood.

Sadly, you no longer have the chance

to obtain the Double Quan Palm.

LYU ANCESTRAL HALL

Take a look.

These are the livestock you raised.

Eight years ago,

at this very spot,

all of you said I killed Lyu Huan.

But you clearly knew

how much I adored Lyu Huan.

But in the end,

not a single person

came forward to speak up for me

or raise suspicions.

You used the Soul Whisperer to torture me.

You turned my memories upside down.

You forced me to admit to your truth!

You talked about getting justice for Lyu Huan.

But do you really care about lives?

You only like to be a hypocrite.

You don't care if anyone dies.

Lyu Huan was the only person

I could cherish

in this world.

But all of you accused me of killing her.

I never understood it before.

I am also part of the Lyu family.

Why did all of you do that to me?

But I get it now.

That's because this family

doesn't need

even a tiny bit

of what is called true happiness.

Growing up,

everyone told me

that every drop of blood of the Lyu family

is very precious.

But in the end,

it was his blood that was the most precious!

You were all aware of it,

but you helped him do evil!

Fine!

Aren't you all for evil?

You don't care if your loved ones die, right?

Today, I will give you a taste

of what it's like

to lose the person you love most

and all your best memories.

All of you are conspirators

and accomplices.

I will let you live

the rest of your lives

in the beauty of your memories

and the void of reality.

This is the ending you deserve.

From today on,

call me Sect Leader of Sinister Pleasure.

-Yes, Sect Leader! -Yes, Sect Leader!

SECT LEADER OF SINISTER PLEASURE
