"Li Zhao, are you still human?"
Tong Shishi looked coldly at the emaciated boy, clearly rembering that when she first t him, he was severely injured. She had taken care of him attentively and helped him recover from his wounds.
But now, this guy had actually brought people to rob her of her Spirit Stones!
The feeling of being betrayed made Tong Shishi tremble with anger.
The emaciated boy remained calm even after hearing this, with a slight smile: "Back then, it was just a bitter trick I used as a pretense, nothing more to say. We are bandits, just leave the Spirit Stones and leave yourself."
"Also..."
"I’m not called Li Zhao, my na is Lu Fan."
The self-proclaid Lu Fan said calmly.
"Lu Fan?"
Tong Shishi was slightly shocked: "You’re the bandit Lu Fan on Yun Country’s wanted list?"
Lu Fan nodded: "That’s right."
Tong Shishi’s expression was extrely complicated. She looked at Lu Fan, clenched her small fists, then loosened them, and looked at Ye Xuan beside her, and whispered, "Young Master Ye, could you help ?"
Ye Xuan smiled slightly and said, "How do you want them to die?"
Tong Shishi’s expression was complicated, and she said softly, "Can you spare their lives?"
Ye Xuan restrained his smile and said indifferently, "There might be more people who will suffer."
Tong Shishi opened her mouth but didn’t know how to respond, because she thought Ye Xuan made sense, but...
Ye Xuan didn’t rush to take action, calmly said, "Think it through before you give an answer."
To him, this group of so-called bandits were not even ants, just like a speck of dust.
The strongest one, the emaciated boy Lu Fan, was rely at the threshold of the Heavenly God Realm.
This level of strength was nothing in front of Ye Xuan.
What interested him more was what choice Tong Shishi would make.
"Boss, this kid doesn’t seem to take us seriously!"
The conversation between Ye Xuan and Tong Shishi made the group of bandits reveal a malicious killing intent.
The emaciated boy Lu Fan didn’t rush and instead squinted at the black-robed youth beside Tong Shishi, who seed younger than him.
Suddenly appearing, could he be a child of so Family?
But that was not enough to make Lu Fan apprehensive. He was originally a bandit, surviving by robbing everywhere. Once this business was done, he’d switch places imdiately. Why should he care who the other party was?
With that in mind, the emaciated boy Lu Fan wasted no words, waving his hand.
In an instant, three bandits lunged out, charging at Ye Xuan.
It must be said that although these bandits looked carefree, their attack was swift and ruthless, targeting three points on Ye Xuan’s lower part, throat, and heart.
Even for a Cultivator, these three points were fatal. Once hit, if not dead, they’d be severely injured.
It was obvious that these guys were seasoned, with bloodstained hands.
But Ye Xuan never moved.
That scene fell into the eyes of the three bandits, naturally thinking he was scared stiff.
They felt disdainful, wondering where the bravado had gone?
Is this it?
However, just as they were about to touch Ye Xuan, they froze in place, unable to move.
Seeing that scene, Lu Fan and the others’ pupils suddenly contracted.
"Go!"
Without any hesitation, Lu Fan shouted and turned to leave.
The others followed suit without a word, scattering and fleeing, leaving only the three frozen in front of Ye Xuan, motionless.
Ye Xuan’s eyes remained on Tong Shishi, waiting for her decision.
Tong Shishi was very conflicted, but after seeing those three strike at Ye Xuan, she finally made up her mind and nodded: "Kill them."
After saying those three words, it seed as if Tong Shishi had used up all her strength, her face turning pale.
Bam!
With Tong Shishi’s words, the three in front of Ye Xuan exploded, blood splattering, grueso and terrifying.
anwhile, Lu Fan had long since fled desperately, already a hundred miles away, but he had no intention of stopping and continued running for his life.
Because Lu Fan knew very well that this ti he had hit an iron wall, and not an ordinary one.
Hard as hell!
Only by constantly running could there be a chance to survive!
This was Lu Fan’s only thought.
Boom!
But in the next mont, Lu Fan lost consciousness, knowing nothing.
Blown to pieces by an invisible force.
Except for Lu Fan, all other bandits were dead.
It was all just a thought for Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan lightly brushed his sleeve, erasing all traces of the deceased bandits.
As if they had never co to the Human World.
While brushing his sleeve, Ye Xuan said, "Don’t be conflicted about whether your choice is right, as long as you have a clear conscience."
Tong Shishi shook her head, tears glistening in her eyes: "I don’t understand."
Ye Xuan smiled slightly and said, "This world has many rules, every country, every Sect, every world has its rules, which are used to bind people’s Seven Emotions and Six Desires."
"But there are always people who break the rules."
"There are good people and bad people in this world, good and evil arise in a single thought, like what you told back then. At that ti, you thought it was right, when actually it was wildly wrong."
"And the evil they’ve committed today, in their eyes, was right because it was their livelihood, but it trampled on your goodness, which you thought was wrong, so you chose to punish them."
"To you, that was right."
"But your initial choice to spare them might have been right to you, worthy of the goodness in your heart, but it was unworthy of the evil they did."
At this point, Ye Xuan raised his right hand and lightly brushed the space between heaven and earth.
As if cutting through the heavens and earth with a blade.
Ye Xuan’s eyes were calm, saying blandly: "So there is a principle in this world known as using evil to control evil."
"Stop killing by killing!"
"Any principle must be built upon your own strength."
"If you are strong enough, even if you fart, others will praise it as fragrant."
"If you are weak and incompetent, even if you do the most correct thing, to others it’s just that."
Ye Xuan’s words were crude.
But this ti, what Tong Shishi cared about was not this, because she really understood.
She looked at Ye Xuan, a peer in age, but speaking with such great reasoning, far beyond what she understood.
"I understand now."
Tong Shishi took a deep breath, her gaze clear.
Until a certain day in the future, when Tong Shishi had beco a legendary figure in the Alchemy World, she still vividly rembered that day, often recalling it and telling later generations about the principle of good and evil.
Indulging goodness is the greatest evil!
Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze and smiled indifferently: "Glad you understand, let’s go."
For Tong Shishi, the road ahead suddenly seed much smoother, and she walked with more strength.
Not only the mountain path, but also the path of Cultivation.
