It turns out that the little beggar had a younger sister with disabled legs besides himself. After risking his life to snatch back so food, he only ate a little and gave the rest to his sister. It was precisely because of this behavior that Zhou Tian ultimately decided to let him inherit his Strength.
Although Zhou Tian currently belonged to the Dark Camp, it didn’t an he had to choose ruthless people as subordinates. In fact, whether dark or light, Zhou Tian knew it was just a different attribute of Strength. There were still many living beings in the Dark Camp that Zhou Tian held a good opinion of, and there were always scoundrels in the Light Camp.
Undoubtedly, compared to those ruthless individuals, when Zhou Tian chose soone to inherit his part of the Strength, he naturally preferred soone with principles, soone who at least knows gratitude, which is sothing that can be guaranteed.
Otherwise, if he really chose soone with outstanding Talent who would use the inherited Strength imdiately against him, although Zhou Tian didn’t fear such betrayal, it was an experience he did not want to have.
Thus, given that little beggar’s behavior at that ti, it was impossible for him not to catch Zhou Tian’s attention.
Being willing to fight adults stronger than himself for food showed that the little beggar wasn’t lacking in Courage, and the willingness to fight fiercely despite knowing he was no match, aiming to injure the other’s eyes to ensure his full retreat, indicated that he was not a reckless person.
Finally, taking care of his disabled sister who couldn’t fend for herself, even after becoming a beggar himself, and willingly giving his ager food to her, showed that he valued kinship greatly.
Soone with both Courage and cunning who also values relationships would allow Zhou Tian to entrust his Strength to him without fear of betrayal.
However...
Even though the little beggar’s performance at the ti was enough to satisfy Zhou Tian, in that actual situation, Zhou Tian couldn’t help but have so other thoughts.
If he gave the little beggar Strength then, perhaps the little beggar would indeed be grateful to Zhou Tian, and it might be guaranteed that he would put effort into developing Zhou Tian’s Church. But no matter what, to the little beggar, Zhou Tian would only be considered a benefactor, and there was no way to ensure how important Zhou Tian was in his heart.
Obviously, Zhou Tian was not satisfied with such a result. Since he felt there was no way to ensure the little beggar would wholeheartedly strive to develop his Church at the ti, Zhou Tian had to employ so other Tactics then.
Firstly, according to Zhou Tian’s plan at that ti, the little beggar’s sister was an absolute hindrance to his sche. As long as she existed, the little beggar would definitely prioritize his sister above all else in his heart. Even if Zhou Tian was a benefactor, the little beggar would only help Zhou Tian develop the Church. But if the matter got entangled with his sister, the little beggar wouldn’t just turn against Zhou Tian, and to have him sacrifice his sister to help Zhou Tian wasn’t a Guarantee Zhou Tian had much faith in.
Of course, although having the little beggar’s sister around wasn’t good for Zhou Tian’s plans, he didn’t imdiately get the idea of getting rid of her.
For one thing, the little beggar wasn’t a fool, and as they say, there’s no wall without a crack. If Zhou Tian had really done that, it might co to light in the future. And as soon as the beggar found out, the loyalty he currently had for Zhou Tian would turn into equal hatred by then.
Even if he wasn’t afraid of his subordinates’ betrayal, and even though the little beggar, even if he accepted the cultivation level of Zhou Tian’s Energy Avatar and betrayed him, couldn’t pose any Threat, it wasn’t a reason for Zhou Tian to do that. Zhou Tian admired the little beggar and didn’t want to persecute him for his One’s own power. Secondly, although the little beggar’s sister at the ti was a hindrance to Zhou Tian’s plan, killing the little beggar’s sister wasn’t the only thod to solve the problem. At least, in Zhou Tian’s opinion, directly killing the little girl was not only cruel but also extrely Stupid behavior.
Firstly, not considering what reaction the little beggar would have in the future upon receiving relevant information, if the little girl was utilized well, her living Value was far greater than her death’s Value.
Since the little beggar valued his sister so much, Zhou Tian decided to control her. As long as the little beggar didn’t change his feelings towards his sister, then even if his attitude towards Zhou Tian changed in the future, with Zhou Tian controlling the little girl, he would be able to control the little beggar.
Thus, when Zhou Tian discovered the bond between the two siblings, his eyes turned, and he ca up with an idea.
While the little beggars were still happy about having gained so food and being able to live a little longer, they didn’t notice at all that a ’Crisis’ was quietly approaching them.
"I told you the kid was hiding here!"
"Bastard, how dare he blind Ah Shan’s eyes, I won’t let him get away with it!"
"Didn’t expect this kid to have a sister! Although she’s disabled, selling her to those nobles should still fetch a few coins!"
"Even if she can’t be a maid, she can be a female slave."
"..."
Suddenly, voices broke into the peaceful life of the two little beggars. Seeing several beggars discussing them, although the little beggar felt fear, he still bravely stood in front of his sister.
But it was obvious that the little beggar’s Resistance was aningless.
Firstly, expecting a child of about ten to fight several adults was dood from the start to have no Winning Odds. Not to ntion several adults, even against one, as long as the adult wasn’t careless, the little beggar would have no chance of injuring them.
Secondly, to protect his food before, Zhou Tian, while blinding a beggar in one eye, also got seriously injured. Given the little beggar’s conditions, he naturally couldn’t afford a physician to heal his Injury. Thus, his state at the ti was very poor, and unless he could Recover, how long he could continue living was a Problem. In such circumstances, hoping the little beggar could block a few wolf-like adults was naturally impossible.
Things didn’t take an unexpected turn due to the little beggar’s will. Not only was the food he brought back taken away by the beggars, but the little beggar, beaten half to Death, had to watch helplessly as the beggars took his sister away.
Just thinking about what those beggars had said, the little beggar knew well that if his sister fell into their hands, her fate wouldn’t be good. For this reason, the little beggar had fought desperately while seriously injured before.
But unfortunately, his Strength wasn’t enough to defeat the adult beggars. So, despite his efforts, there were no results. In such circumstances, not only was the little beggar’s sister taken away, but unless sothing unforeseen happened, he wouldn’t survive long either.
"Am I going to die? I’m so unwilling! Little Butterfly got taken away; no, I must rescue Little Butterfly! Damn it, Body, move! Damn it, soone help ; just let save Little Butterfly, and I’d be willing to die!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please go to qidian to vote for it. Your support is my greatest motivation.
