Abao rubbed his forehead and said, feeling wronged:
"That's all in the past. I'm not a saint anymore; I'm ruthless and decisive, okay?"
Ling Yun shook his head and smiled:
"Let's go eat beggar's chicken!"
Then, the group went to the restaurant, and each person ordered three beggar's chickens.
With a snap, the soil outside was removed, and the lotus leaves unfolded, immediately filling the private room with fragrance.
Yan Ruyu removed the chicken leg, blew on it, and stuffed it into Lingxi's mouth.
"Mmm! It's so delicious!"
Everyone immediately began to eat heartily, their mouths greasy with oil.
"No wonder the city lord likes beggar's chicken, it's delicious!"
Ah Bao ate while reminiscing.
That night, while everyone was resting at the inn, they suddenly heard screams coming from outside.
The crowd hurriedly opened the windows and saw hundreds of black bears wreaking havoc in the city.
These black bears are all bear demons at the Martial Soul Realm, possessing formidable combat power.
They quickly and brutally massacred more than 3,000 people in Ganyun City. Their method of killing was extremely cruel, including directly ripping out hearts.
The human heart contains the essence of blood and is the most precious part of the body. Devouring human hearts can help one advance their cultivation more quickly.
Upon seeing this, A Bao and Shangguan Hong immediately prepared to jump out of the window to kill the black bear.
"Don't be impulsive!"
Ling Yun spoke softly.
The next moment!
Tens of thousands of martial artists from Ganyun City were mobilized.
An hour later, they killed more than a dozen black bears and brought the rest under their control.
Such a commotion will surely attract the attention of the city lord.
Soon, the white carriage slowly drove up.
Seeing the dozen or so black bear carcasses on the ground, Bai Xin's eyes were filled with heartache, and she immediately reprimanded the martial artist:
Why kill a black bear?
"I...this..." The leading warrior was speechless for a moment.
"Lord of the City, those hundred black bears killed more than three thousand of our people! They cruelly devoured the hearts of our people just to break through to higher realms. Can't we kill them?"
Bai Xin shook his head helplessly, stepped down from the carriage, and came to the black bear's carcass, stroking it with a pained expression.
Then she looked at the leading martial artist and reprimanded him:
“Black bears are also living beings. We should use compassion to influence them, not kill them.”
"Are we going to use the lives of ordinary people to reform them? They are ungrateful wretches who can never be tamed. If we let them go today, they will come back again!"
"If we kill three thousand this time, next time it will be thirty thousand, and the time after that, the entire Black Bear Clan might descend upon Ganyun City and devour the hearts of its inhabitants!"
The leading warrior said with a face full of grief and indignation.
"Insolence!" The city lord's guards immediately surrounded the warrior and held a knife to his neck.
"Anyone who dares to disrespect the city lord again will be executed without mercy!"
The martial artist fell silent, deeply resentful.
Bai Xin slightly raised her hand, signaling the guards to step back. She walked up to the black bear from earlier that day and earnestly said:
"Eating people is wrong. Never kill anyone again when you enter the city, understand?"
The black bear immediately nodded like a chick pecking at rice, assuring him:
"Beautiful city lord, rest assured, we swear we will never enter Ganyun City to kill again!"
The other black bears also nodded with utmost reverence.
Bai Xin was very satisfied and said to the martial artist:
"Let them go. They killed because they had their reasons. We should be understanding and forgiving."
The martial artists had no choice but to release the black bear.
"This woman is an idiot, I even suspect she's from our Black Bear tribe."
"Haha~ You've let us go? Tomorrow, our Black Bear Clan will surround Ganyun City and slaughter everyone in it!"
"Sure, the city lord is so kind, he'll definitely agree!"
"..."
The black bears swaggered out of Ganyun City, communicating telepathically as they did so.
Bai Xin never glanced at the corpses of the common people from beginning to end, only saying indifferently:
"Give them compensation money!"
After saying that, he got into the carriage and returned to the city lord's mansion.
Enraged, the warriors took advantage of Bai Xin's departure and stormed out of the city, intercepting dozens of black bears.
"Heh... Are you here to deliver a heart?"
The black bear looked at the martial artists with disdain.
"Oh~ judging by your murderous looks, you're not planning to kill us, are you? Don't forget what the city lord said about having compassion, and not..."
With a soft thud, the black bear who had spoken was beheaded by the enraged warrior.
The other warriors swarmed forward and killed all the black bears.
...
Abao said indignantly:
"Brother, why won't you let us kill those black bears?"
Ling Yun joked:
"Didn't the city lord say that people should have universal love and use kindness to influence the black bear?"
"Fuck you!" Abao rarely swore.
"Compassion my ass, that's just an overflowing saintly heart. If they could be reformed, that black bear wouldn't have brought its companions into the city at night to wreak havoc."
"No, I can't stand by and watch anymore, I'm going to intercept and kill those black bears!"
Just as Abao was about to leave, Lingyun waved his hand and said:
"No need! Someone has already killed them!"
The next morning, the earth rumbled and roared as if a major earthquake had struck.
Suddenly, a staggering thirty million black bears charged towards Ganyun City from all directions. They manifested their enormous forms, as tall as the city walls.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers guarding the city immediately closed the city gates and activated the city's protective formation.
"Roar~"
Thirty million black bears roared simultaneously, causing the city's protective formation to tremble violently.
The commander defending the city pointed angrily at the Black Bear King in the distance and shouted:
Why are you attacking the city?!
"Roar~"
The Black Bear King roared angrily and said in a stern voice:
"Last night, one hundred members of my Black Bear tribe were slaughtered by you humans. Today, we demand an explanation!"
