Watching the two junior disciples run further and further away, Wu Er didn't chase after them, he just watched.
I wonder what he's thinking right now.
People always have to pay the price for their personality, even if it's a good personality in the eyes of ordinary people.
The best personality trait may also be the biggest flaw.
"Indecisive and overly compassionate."
Wu Er uttered those two words softly, then shook his head slightly.
He was well aware of his weaknesses, but there were some things he just couldn't change.
This can be considered as bearing a crime. Although helping the demon race is indeed helpful, it is still a crime.
It has to be said, it's somewhat ridiculous.
Now that it's all happened, let it be laughable.
Wu Er wasn't afraid of being laughed at by anyone.
Seeing the two junior disciples gradually fly away, Wu Er turned his gaze to the demon race below.
How to deal with these demons is also a headache.
Wu Er saved their lives out of kindness, but he couldn't save them from the future, so he could only sigh helplessly.
"You may all disperse. This is human territory. If you invade, you will surely die."
He gave a brief warning, which was more than enough, and Wu Er's conscience could bear it.
He cannot save everyone in the world, but he cannot stand by and watch someone die.
Whether it was worth offending a major sect for a few kind little demons who had never eaten humans was something only he knew in his heart.
With this matter settled, Wu Er planned to detour back to Zhongzhou.
While passing through the cultivator city would save a lot of travel time, given the current situation, it seems impossible to do so, and a longer detour will be necessary.
Regardless of whether he was wanted or not, going back to see his junior brothers and sisters was the most important thing.
Wu Er was about to leave when a shout suddenly came from below.
"benefactor!"
Although the sound wasn't loud, it still caught Wu Er's attention.
The demon race was grateful; while not impossible, it was still a rare occurrence.
The hatred between the human and demon races is immeasurable, and the situation is now so urgent.
Under such circumstances, this act of kindness seems precious, even somewhat strange.
Or rather, since the new Demon Saint ascended the throne, the demon race in this Eastern Wilderness has been strange in every way compared to the demon races in other places.
Since they had called him their benefactor, Wu Er decided to pay them a little more attention.
"Is there something else?"
After he uttered a sound, the group of demons became terrified again, their legs trembling uncontrollably. Only some of the older demons looked at Wu Er.
Everyone says that demons are terrifying, but the timid demon before us is probably the norm.
Whether human or demon, both can be good or bad, both can be vicious, but both sides endlessly vilify each other, which is why there are so many misunderstandings and prejudices.
So what exactly have humans and demons been fighting over for tens of thousands of years?
A wave of emotion washed over me, and a few insights dawned on me.
"My benefactor, I have a favor to ask!"
Among the demons, a goat demon stepped forward.
This goat demon had two horns on its head and a goat beard, giving it a scholarly air, but its eyes were full of weariness.
Wu Er looked at the goat demon and said, "Speak your mind."
The goat demon was overjoyed to hear Wu Er's reply, probably because he hadn't had much hope before.
"My benefactor, although this request is quite unreasonable, please... please give us a ride..."
Towards the end of his sentence, there was a noticeable pause, indicating that he himself was hesitant to say it.
Upon hearing this, Wu Er frowned.
"To escort" means to give someone a ride or to help them get along.
This request is indeed a bit excessive. Wu Er saved them earlier, and now they are asking for an escort. It is impolite and a waste of other people's time and energy.
The goat demon shook his head and sighed again, "My benefactor, although this request is excessive... we have no other way to survive..."
The helplessness in his voice was almost overflowing, which shows how helpless he felt.
If there were other options, I probably wouldn't have been able to say that.
Being soft-hearted can lead to mistakes; good intentions may not be rewarded...
These two sentences appeared in Wu Er's mind.
He has experienced many of these things.
He had intended to refuse, but when he looked at the group of demons, he began to hesitate.
A frail old demon, and a newborn little demon.
One by one, the desperate demons raised their heads, staring at Wu Er with slightly hopeful eyes.
What does it feel like to be stared at by so many eyes?
You don't know, I don't know, but Wu Er does.
Indecisive and overly compassionate.
Even after being subjected to countless tortures, this flaw remains.
Wu Er murmured the two words to himself, then said to the demons, "Since we're going the same way, it won't hurt to give them a ride."
This passage already makes the meaning clear.
"On the way?" These demons didn't even say where they were going, so how could it be on the way?
This was just an excuse Wu Er used to put their minds at ease.
Upon receiving the response, the group of demons below were initially stunned, seemingly unable to believe it, before becoming overjoyed.
And in those eyes, there was something called hope.
Wu Er knew he had taken on another troublesome task.
He then glanced at the group of demons and noticed that the goat demon who had spoken to him earlier had the highest cultivation level, and was probably the leader of this group of wandering demons.
So Wu Er landed on the ground and walked to the goat demon's side.
"benefactor!"
The goat demon bowed deeply to Wu Er, probably because he was too old and exhausted; otherwise, he would have knelt down.
