Funeral

Alex couldn't accept that his master was dead. He just couldn't. He believed it all to be a dream, but the reality was often disappointing. 

He cried along with the other elders for some time after she passed away. 

Afterward, he explained what had happened. He told everyone how the attack on the city was a distraction for the old man to enter the sect and look for him. 

If not for him being in the Tiger sect instead of here, he would've likely died at the start of the night.

The elders went up the mountain and saw the bloody scene of the stabbed Second elder and the beheaded Third elder, lying dead on the floor together.

The tragedy felt unending for them.

Wen Cheng too was quite bloody, but he would survive. The elders immediately got to treating him under Alex's request. 

Alex had stopped crying by now, but then the tears started falling once more when he heard someone else crying.
