"What are you worried about? We swore an oath before Houtu; do you think I'd dare to harm you? Besides, am I the only one benefiting from this? Isn't it for everyone?"
After Real Person Tingyu finished speaking, he added, "I understand, you feel pity for these mortals' lives! But the weak falling prey to the strong is the norm in this world. Once they chose this path, they should have been prepared to die.
Moreover, after consuming human flesh, they no longer count as humans."
Tian Lin knew it was pointless to say more, as Real Person Tingyu had already acted first and reported later, and what was done could not be changed.
Besides, wouldn't he also want the ores extracted and refined by Real Person Tingyu's 'mummified corpses' in the future?
If he reaps the benefits from Real Person Tingyu's creations while simultaneously condemning him for his inhumanity, it would make him seem hypocritically compassionate.
