Mourning The Dead (3)

Yun Yanli did not move at first. His mind was filled with regret as he contemplated what he had done. Shortly after, he closed his eyes and finally cried, staining his robes with tears. A man would not usually cry unless he was deeply saddened. Hence, his action clearly portrayed how he felt. 

The man in black did not look pleased. Years of his efforts had gone to waste in the blink of an eye. He watched in disbelief as Yun Yanli took his parents' lives without turning himself into the killing machine that he had wanted him to be. 

It was impossible! He had been working on building and channeling the immense source of resentment for years. How could their grudge be purified so easily? Furthermore, the corpses were basically invulnerable to all forms of weapons or spells. Why would they die from one small stab from Yun Yanli? It did not make any sense. What was the weapon that Yun Yanli had just used? How could it be so powerful?
