Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

At most, she disagrees, at least that's what she thinks now.

But this affected so many cultivators and caused a beast tide, so she had to take care of it.

According to the conversation between the monks just now, there were many people hunting beasts at that time. Not to mention those who were not seen, there were more than 300 people who died in the beast tide. And all of this was because of the person mentioned by the wild beast.

If it was to vent anger or hatred, then it could be barely understandable; but when Keqing heard the word "steal", she knew it was not the so-called venting of anger against the enemy, but for profit.

For his own benefit, he put everyone in danger and affected so many people.

Keqing looked back and took in the view from high in the sky.

The expressions of the crowd came into view, and she noticed with her sharp eyes that some people looked a little uncomfortable because of her gaze.

Of course, many people felt uncomfortable. After all, her behavior of talking to the wild beast at this moment was indeed unreliable.

However, that person's expression was different. He looked a little more frightened than the others, and his hands subconsciously covered his waist, as if he was trying to hide something. Even his eyes were wrong.

It's him?

Keqing paused, but didn't make a move right away.

She hesitated.

Now she is no longer the Jade Star of the continent of Teyvat, and has no qualifications or position to decide the life of a stranger, his situation and consequences.

If I act on my own, will people be dissatisfied? Will I be too self-righteous?

So she hesitated.

She is just a person from another world, just an outsider cultivator who came to Huangzhou by accident. Why should she decide the situation of others based on her own opinion?

[Master...what are you hesitating about? ]

The little coal ball on the side saw his master's confusion and couldn't help but ask.

Keqing asked her doubts, and Little Coal Ball breathed a sigh of relief.

[I was wondering, Master, just do what you want. ]

"But doesn't this make me seem too overbearing? Too self-righteous?"

[So what? Master, are you the kind of person who cares about other people's eyes? ]

"No."

[Master, if you encounter someone who does bad things, will you let them go? Will you ignore it because you are not a law enforcement officer? ]

"Won't……"

[That's right! Master, you are always willing to help those mortals and intervene in those injustices, why do you hesitate when you meet the monks now? ]

"That's because the people love me, so I have reason to..."

[If they don't like to take you with them, will you intervene in those unjust things? ]

Keqing Shen

Silence for a long time...

"I think it should be possible..."

"No, not should, but definitely!"

Seeing that Keqing's expression became serious and seemed to have made up her mind, Little Coal Ball breathed a sigh of relief.

[Isn't that right? Master, you have become stronger, but why have you become more hesitant? You don't have to think too much, just follow your heart. Seeking the truth is also seeking the heart. You have grown to such an extent, becoming madly stronger. One reason is to go home, and the other is to do whatever you want, right? ]

[Perhaps because of the hostility between humans and animals, you are a little hesitant. You are also a human being, and such behavior is equivalent to judging the enemy. Perhaps you feel that you have no position to be a person who judges others. I know that you may be a little biased, biased towards humans, so you think that the wild beasts losing their cubs and having their children stolen may not be worth mentioning.]

"It's not..."

Keqing suddenly said.

Keqing suddenly realized that she was wrong, extremely wrong.

Why did she feel that she should intervene when mortals lost their cubs, but she seemed to think it was no big deal when wild beasts lost their cubs?

Because she is a human being?

But she is from the continent of Teyvat, and strictly speaking, not from this world.

Is it because of intelligence? But wild beasts also have intelligence.

Could it be because of their appearance, one is human and the other is a wild beast?

But when it reaches a certain level, it can also transform into a human form.

Waves surged in Keqing's heart, hitting her heart bit by bit.

Does she hate monsters? No, she doesn't hate them. Do they have intelligence? Yes, what's the difference between them and humans?

Is her so-called Tao only for humans, not for wild beasts? Is she really treating everyone equally?

If we treat them all equally, then wild beasts can do it, so can demons?

No, it's different. Wild beasts and humans are all creatures of this world. Their hostility is only racial hostility, just like the wars between mortal countries.

The demons, however, are invaders and outsiders, and their methods are cruel, so they are different.

Suddenly, Keqing seemed to understand a lot. The demons in her heart quietly dissipated, and her determination to pursue the Tao became firm again.

She stared at the little coal ball.

"They have intelligence and can speak, so they are living beings. They are living beings, and so are humans. The human traffickers who stole the children are unforgivable, and that person who stole their cubs is also unforgivable!"

"You're right. What I need is justice and fairness, not looking at it from one side's perspective. I'm not a human from Huangzhou or even Jiuzhou, right? Why should I naturally stand on the side of humans? If I did something wrong, it's wrong."

Having said this, Keqing seemed to be talking to herself.

"I know that there are many cultivators in this world who naturally steal the cubs of demon beasts. Perhaps some people would say that some demon beasts have no intelligence, so the loss of their cubs does not make them as painful as it does for mortals. But some things are not judged by results, but by behavior, right?"

Stealing and killing are different. If you kill the mother animal and take the cubs back to raise, it is a decision between life and death, self-defense, and whether to raise the cubs or not is your own choice.

But if they steal, and do it on such a large scale using any means necessary, then what's the difference between them and human traffickers?

After all, how is the reaction of these wild beasts different from that of the mortals who have lost their children?

With a thought, Keqing's eyes gradually became firm.

What I should obey is my way and my heart.

Chapter 363: So Stupid and Vicious (Part )

She doesn't care what the world is like, nor what others think of her, she just wants to do what she wants.

Thinking of this, her eyes focused, she stretched out her hand and grabbed, and a huge hand of thunder flew towards a person on the boat.

"You, what are you doing!"

The man instantly burst out with a powerful aura and tried to escape!

Everyone was shocked at first by this unexpected development, and didn't understand why this beautiful senior would attack them.

But then he was surprised to find that the Jindan cultivator hiding aside was actually a Yuanying senior!

They seemed to understand something, but they knew nothing and dared not resist.

[Yuan Ying... I actually misjudged you. 】

The little coal ball suddenly realized, but his expression did not change. He was not worried at all, as it was just a Nascent Soul.

But she felt relieved when she saw her master taking action.

To be honest, between a master who prefers humans and a master who has no preference, as an outlier, she still prefers the latter.

After all, she is also an outlier.

To other humans, this master's unreasonable empathy for wild beasts was self-righteous and lacked human stance, but to her, it was so reassuring.

Because the master treats everyone equally, whether they are humans or wild beasts.

Just as she expected, the Nascent Soul cultivator was quickly subdued by his master.

Keqing didn't expect that this Nascent Soul had so many tricks, especially ways to escape, and it could even block consciousness and eyes.

However, his actions under the thunder

But she couldn't escape. It wasn't like she was completely invisible, but she still existed and was still active. Although such an area was unheard of and unseen, it was not enough to give her a headache.

Of course, this might be because her spiritual awareness was strong, and her control over thunder had reached the point where the thunder moved as her heart wished.

"Let me go! What do you want to do? Kill people and steal treasures!?"

"Okay, I thought you wanted to save us, but it turned out you wanted to rob us!"

The man was tied up and said some provocative words.

Some of the people below were also aroused, but most of them did not react, including several Nascent Soul cultivators.

Firstly, they were exhausted and had no ability to resist. The other party was so strong, how could they resist? Secondly, the man's provocation was too low-level. You said that the other party had ulterior motives, so why did you hide your cultivation, even if you had to escape? Why didn't the fairy capture others but him?

The majority of people didn't react much, so the small minority naturally followed the crowd. Although they had their own thoughts in their minds, they were not stupid enough to say them out loud.

The man found that the people below were not provoked, and the few Nascent Soul cultivators did not react either, so he cursed inwardly at the old fox.

His expression changed immediately.

"Daoyou, we can talk it over. Have I offended you?"

“If you have anything that you like, I am willing to give it to you with both hands. I hope you will spare my life.

He tried to humble himself and beg for mercy from Keqing in a more humble manner.

However, Keqing turned a deaf ear and said calmly.

"No, I'll get what I want."

As he spoke, he slightly hooked his index finger, and a bolt of lightning struck the man's storage bag, cutting off the straps and pulling it over.

The man's eyes moved slightly when he saw this. Keqing opened the storage bag and forcibly removed her spiritual sense. The man groaned, obviously injured. He didn't expect Keqing's spiritual sense to be so strong.

Keqing took a quick look with her spiritual sense and frowned slightly.

"No, no."

"If you are interested in my storage bag, just tell me why you are doing this."

Keqing's behavior, coupled with the man's words, intensified the speculation in the hearts of that small group of people.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Keqing became alert.

Just as someone who couldn't see the situation clearly opened his mouth, before Keqing could take any action, her sensible accomplices covered their mouths.

Keqing didn't care about their actions, but controlled the Thunder Hand to pull the other party over, looking at them carefully with her spiritual sense, and finally, she found a clue.

The thunder blade cut open the belt and took out an object similar to a hollow willow branch from the hollow belt.

The man wanted to struggle, but Keqing went all out and tied him up tightly and blocked his mouth.

[It turned out to be an empty willow branch]

Little Coal Ball was surprised.

Keqing used her spiritual sense to explore and indeed saw many cubs among the branches that looked like they were dying.

Only then did she nod with satisfaction.

After looking at the man, she finally had time to explain everything.

After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was going on. Only after they saw Keqing take out some cubs from inside to support the authenticity of what she said did they believe it.

I didn’t expect that this fairy could actually hear what the wild beast said!

It's really awesome.

And the man in front of them turned out to be the culprit who caused them to be in this situation, how hateful!

But some people hold different opinions.

"Fairy, since there are so many cubs, and we are afraid of the wild beast, we can just use the cubs as hostages. I think the wild beast will not dare to act rashly!"

"Yes, yes! Those wild beasts are really abominable. They killed so many of us cultivators. We didn't give them a little face and thought we were easy to bully."

"Yes, we can hold these cubs hostage and ask them to let us go back to the city. We will have the final say on what we want to do with them then."

Some people were speaking indignantly, but they found that the surroundings were suddenly getting colder and colder, and no one responded.

He looked up and was suddenly stared into a pair of calm eyes. His heart felt like ice falling into it, and it was cold.
