The living fossil staggered to the shrine and the photo of his teacher. His withered pupils looked at the benevolent-looking old man on the portrait. He spoke with a hoarse voice and said wickedly, "Mister, you taught me to revere my master and respect your teachings. I abided by your mission in life and asked my disciples to respect you deeply. But it turns out the things you actually taught me..."
The tone of the living fossil turned furious. "You taught me to be inconsistent, you taught me to be crafty and two-faced, and you taught me...to live as a sham.
"I've tried to maintain the manner and etiquette of a teacher. But just like you, I only seem to be a person of good moral standing and reputation on the surface. Secretly, I've brought nothing but devastation to living beings. When all is said and done, neither of us are worthy of being a healer.
"The poison sect you've worked so hard to create are not at all deserving to exist in this world.”
Once the living fossil was done with his words, the respect in his eyes turned into an ominous glint akin t o a viper’s. He suddenly reached out and tore apart his mister's portrait. He rolled it into a ball before
throwing it on the ground angrily.
He knocked all the flowers and offerings on the shrine to the ground.
When the Poison Doctor, who was waiting outside, heard the movement inside, she took a few of her men to charge in. When these people saw the old forefather's portrait torn off and thrown to the ground, as well as the offerings rolling on the ground, the Poison Doctor was immediately indignant.
"How dare you disrespect our old forefather, Rozette Ares?! You'll see what’s coming for you now!" The Poison Doctor never expected that it was their beloved mister who tore apart the portrait of their forefather.
Baby Zetty looked at the living fossil. At that moment, she had inexplicable respect for him.
The first half of this man's life was utterly miserable, and the second half of his life was filled with extreme evil. In the end, he was able to overthrow the feudal ethics that he had always followed and abandoned the poison sect he founded. It was also regarded as turning over a new leaf.
Baby Zetty revered him for coming to see the truth in the last moments of his life.
