What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH)

Chapter 63: Disappointment

The three bandits looked heartbroken as they gazed at the shattered jade ring in the dent.

Our hard-earned sweat and blood

Regardless of wind or rain, day or night, enduring the cold and heat at this roadside spot, everything they had accumulated through their efforts had turned to dust at this moment

This is too much

As the three men were on the verge of tears, Xiao Yan calmly retrieved the Heavy Black Ruler, coldly observing them.

Even these kinds of people could understand the feelings of those who were robbed.

This was their chance for redemption.

Stop robbing people. If you want money, go find a legitimate job, Xiao Yan stepped over the three men, leaving a calm remark, Dont push me to kill.

Carrying the Heavy Black Ruler on his back, Xiao Yan walked further away, while the sinking feeling in his ring weighed heavily on his heart.

(Little Yan, You never get tired of doing these things, do you?)

Xiao Yan had dealt with two groups of bandits in the same way before.

First, he would inflict brutal punishment on one of them, then destroy all of their possessions in front of them, and finally leave them with a warning.

Although Xiao Yan disliked this approach, it was currently the only method he could think of to bring them back to the right path.

This is the last time, Xiao Yan said in a calm tone, If it doesnt work this time, it means there are significant issues with my approach. At least, most people wont be able to be redeemed through this method. In that case, I will find another way.

With that, Xiao Yan glanced back and confirmed everything was fine before he turned into the nearby forest, circled around, and quickly returned to the location of the three bandits.

Xiao Yan concealed his figure within the forest, his black eyes fixed firmly on the three men, filled with deep anticipation.

Please you three

Xiao Yans heart pleaded, a faint trace of darkness flickering across his expression.

Dont disappoint me again

The three bandits were completely unaware of Xiao Yans return. Two of the lackeys looked at the bald bandit, trembling as they tried to dissuade him.

Boss, maybe we should stop?

Yeah, this time, we were just lucky to have our belongings destroyed. Next time, we might not even escape with our lives!

Although they didnt understand why Xiao Yan only destroyed their possessions but didnt take their lives, for the three men, it was undoubtedly a second chance at life.

After listening to their words, the bald bandit remained silent for a long time before letting out a long sigh.

Youre right If I die, there wont be anyone to take care of my mother

Hearing this, Xiao Yans pupils slightly contracted.

This guy wasnt lying It wasnt just to save his own life that he said those words

Since everything from before is gone, this can be considered our retribution I didnt expect losing my belongings would feel this terrible. The bald bandit stood up and turned to the two lackeys. Lets go back and find a decent job.

Yes!

The two bandits nodded in agreement. Hidden in the forest, Xiao Yan witnessed this scene, and a joyful expression appeared on his face.

Among the three groups of bandits Xiao Yan had encountered this week, these three were the only ones he had successfully influenced!

(Senior Yao! It worked!)

Although Xiao Yan disliked the methods he had used, these three bandits had undoubtedly proven that even people who made a living through robbery could find their way back to the right path!

However, while Xiao Yan was excited, Yao Chen remained silent.

My disciple, you are still too young

A persons thoughts and habits cannot be easily changed with just a few words.

Just as Xiao Yan was immersed in joy, a commotion came from afar. He glanced sideways and saw a carriage approaching from the end of the road. Xiao Yan recognized it as a carriage that regularly traveled between two towns, transporting ordinary people without much power.

In that instant, an ominous premonition began to spread in Xiao Yans heart. He shook his head abruptly, his eyes fixed on the three bandits who had decided to give up their life of robbery.

Xiao Yan even held his breath.

Upon seeing the carriage, the three bandits glanced at each other, then moved to the side of the road, making way for the carriage to pass them, much to Xiao Yans delight.

Great!

This scene almost made Xiao Yan jump for joy.

Xiao Yan felt that he had taken a big step forward on the path of righteousness!

If even these people could be redeemed, then surely others could too!

The next step for Xiao Yan was to explain to them the principles he had once told the members of the Xiao Clan, making them deeply understand the evil deeds they had committed and urging them to make amends wholeheartedly and start anew with integrity!

These three individuals were the cornerstone of his righteous path!

With this in mind, Xiao Yan was about to step out of the forest and put his plan into action.

However, a sudden remark from the bald bandit froze Xiao Yan in place.

How about we do it one last time?

!!!!!

These words instantly shattered Xiao Yans soaring spirit, plunging it into an abyss.

His heart gradually grew cold.

Xiao Yan looked at the three men, who had rushed forward to stop the carriage that had already gone a certain distance. His fists clenched tightly, and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

Why

They had already come back Why did they have to go back?

The last time?

How could it be the last time?!

The righteous path couldnt wait until tomorrow!

It has to be today! We must embrace the righteous path today, so that you can continue on tomorrow!

Why dont you understand?!!

Yao Chen furrowed her brow slightly, feeling the resurfacing black aura emanating from Xiao Yan once again. Her heart sank.

Indeed, it has appeared once more

During the days they had been away from Wutan City, Yao Chen had been paying close attention to the frequent manifestation of this black aura, trying to understand it.

Yao Chen discovered that every time the black aura appeared, it was when Xiao Yan felt extreme disappointment towards those bandits.

And perhaps, this disappointment was the trigger for the emergence of the black aura.

As for what Xiao Yan was disappointed in, Yao Chen had gathered a rough understanding through these days experiences.

It was the despicable nature of humanity.

During the period just after awakening, Yao Chen had been quite puzzled by Xiao Yan.

Could a person truly be flawless to such an extent?

Could such righteous actions and a clear conscience truly be possessed by a young boy?

And during these days, Yao Chen finally unraveled this puzzle.

Xiao Yan was not flawless. He also harbored resentment, felt anger, and held hatred towards certain individuals.

However, as someone pursuing the righteous path, he firmly believed that there was hope for humanity, that people could repent. So whenever these negative emotions arose, he forcefully suppressed them. This was also the reason why Xiao Yan could always treat others with a gentle attitude as much as possible.

But suppressing them didnt mean they would disappear. Those negative emotions still existed, hidden deep within Xiao Yans heart. It was only when he truly felt disappointed in the despicable aspects of humanity that they would resurface.
