I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

Rebecca let out a devastating screech as she writhed in pain from the brutal technique displayed by Curtis. 

Her face flushed as Red as a tomato, while all the veins on her body began to protrude as a result of all the stress they were going through.

The pain Rebecca felt was unimaginable. 

For her it was if what was now flowing through her veins was a hot molten magma instead of the regular blood she was used to

 only furher showing the true extent of torture technique from a sect with as bloody a reputation as The Blood Moon Palace! 

Dante couldn't sit still and continue to watch this horrific display and quickly stood up to jump onto the stage 

But just as he was about to move, he felt a firm grip hold him back by the shoulder. 

Dante turned back to see who could possibly be crazy enough to try and stop him. So you could imagine the shock he felt when he looked back only for him to look back and see that the person was in fact his father! 

Looking at Dante with a completely serious gaze, Winton asked 

"Think about this carefully Dante. Are you sure you want to go down there?" 

"Think about it?!" Asked Dante in anger  

"What the hell is there to think about! My cousin is being tortured in front of my very eyes, why on earth would I want to sit still and think about this!"

As Dante replied his eyes were practically burning with fury at the idiocy of Winton's question.

Seeing this look on Dantes face Winton could only shake his head as he continued 

"It is clear that you haven't thought about this logically yet. Just look at how tense the situation between the two clans is right now.

If you go down onto that platform you could very well be starting an all-out war, countless would have die because of your actions!" 

"So what?" Questioned Dante 

"The kinsman Clan and the Slater clan have Been enemies for generations. There has always been wars between the two clans.

So, if it means that to save Rebecca I cause the death of some people from the slater Clan, then so be it!" Replied Dante with a strong conviction 

"Judging by your response it's clear that you still don't understand the situation" complained Winton 

"When this war starts it won't just be the Slater Clan members that die, you will be the sole cause of the death of hundreds of people from the Kinsman clan! 

Are you sure you can bear that guilt?" 

Hearing this Dante was stunned. 

For the first time since he came to this world his Morals and ethics were truly tested. 

Could he really carry the responsibility of all these deaths? 

The deaths of the slater clan were a different matter entirely. 

The Hatred between the Slater Clan and the Kinsman Clan was basically taught to the disciples of both clans from birth. And just because Dante awakened his memories from his past life, doesn't mean his opinion of the slater clan could just change. 

From the memories of his past life, Dante could quite obviously realise that most of the hatred he felt was caused due to the propaganda and manipulation of the clan. 

But despite all this, the experiences he had since he awakened his memories didn't exactly paint the best image for the slater clan due to all the scheming and traps they had been doing.

Besides, Dante knew that in a world like The Martial Spirit world you had to always seek ways to develop and strengthen yourself, because the moment you stop is the moment you would be cut up and devoured by all your competitors!

So, behind all the bloodshed as anger between the two clans the major reason there is even conflict is k one that has been around since the dawn of mankind. 

 A lack of resources. 

it's because of this fact and the grey nature of the matter that Dante could convince himself and his consciousness that there was no right or wrong in the killings between both clans. 

what he couldn't do however, was causing the death of his fellow clansmen. 

 Dante wasn't some type of brutal killing monster.

Being responsible for the death of his enemies was one thing , but being responsible for the death of his relatives was something Dante had never even thought about. 

This fact was made even more obvious than stunned expression he had on his face as he froze under the thought. 

Winton seemed to notice this dilemma that Dante was experiencing but instead of letting off the pressure on Dante, Winton continued to increase it! 

"Now you can finally see the bigger picture. Just look at Patriarch Gavin" As Winton pointing in his Gavin's direction 

following Winton's instructions, Dante turned to look towards Gavin but was instead shocked by what he saw. 

What he saw was an expressionless Gavin.

His face was so still that was it seemed as if he had been frozen in ice and yet with such an emotionless face on him, Patriarch Gavin still managed to radiate one of the scariest auras Dante had ever seen! 

 Patriarch Gavin had always been one to express himself whether it be through smiles and laughter or frowns and anger, Gavin had never been one to control his emotions. 

So it was clear to see from his expressionless face and terrifying aura, just how much Gavin was holding back the anger he was going through. 

While Dante was looking at Gavin, Winton continued questioning him 

"As Rebecca's father, do you really think that Gavin cares any less about her than you do?" 

"Of course he doesn't! 

 The only reason Gavin is even hesitant in the first place is because he knows that if he interferes it could very well be at the cost of hundreds of lives! 

As the patriarch of the Kinsman Clan, it's his duty to not only care about his family but the clan as whole. He can't just put the whole clan in danger for his own selfish desires! 

"So, I'll ask you again Dante.

Can you bear the cost of all those lives that will die as a result of your actions?"
