The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 284 The Way of Good and Evil

"My dear, Bing'er is seriously injured and won't live long. But Bing'er is not afraid of death at all, because I will be here to accompany you soon..."

After hearing what the nine-tailed white fox said, Xiao Zhu suddenly felt as if a floodgate had been opened somewhere in his heart. An unstoppable and intense sadness surged into his heart, drowning him.

In his eyes, the woman in white before him was no longer the powerful nine-tailed fox demon, but an ignorant girl who had just entered puberty and fell in love. Her husband was murdered, and she guarded him for three hundred years with great devotion, but in the end, she only ended up dying together with him.

He really wanted to comfort the other person, but he didn't know how to start.

The nine-tailed white fox hugged the Red Fox King for a long time before looking at Xiao Zhu. Her tone was very weak as she said, "You and that woman are not actually husband and wife, right?"

Xiao Zhu nodded and said, "Yes."

"You were trapped in ice, but she didn't care about your danger at all. She was only concerned with joining forces with another old man to attack me. This is obviously not how a couple should behave. More importantly, there is no love in the way you two look at each other, so you can't fool me." The nine-tailed white fox said. Xiao Zhu was shocked that the nine-tailed fox was so observant.

"You're right, we are just casual acquaintances. We can't even be called friends, let alone lovers." Xiao Zhu replied.

"Do you have a loved one?" the nine-tailed white fox suddenly asked.

This question made Xiao Zhu stunned for a moment. Ning Zhiwan's figure flashed through his mind. He nodded and said, "Yes, but she is dead just like the Red Fox King."

Hearing Xiao Zhu's answer, the nine-tailed white fox raised its head, looked at Xiao Zhu unexpectedly, and murmured: "So you are also a sad person..."

Xiao Zhu had no intention of sharing his past with the Nine-tailed Fox, and in fact, the Nine-tailed Fox didn't want to listen either.

The nine-tailed white fox said to himself, "Although we are a clan of demon beasts, we are peace-loving, especially Brother Chi. As the head of the clan, he hates war and death the most, so he has always advised us to be law-abiding. However, more than three hundred years ago, you humans suddenly broke into the Fox Liangshan where we have lived for generations, and started killing us without reason, even children and pregnant women were not spared, and your reason was simply because our living here would threaten your safety!"

"Haha, what a threat to our safety! We, the fox demon clan, have lived in Fox Liangshan for thousands of years, and you humans have only been here for two or three years. We haven't said anything yet, but you have become the host. You are just a group of despicable invaders..."

"Although Brother Chi, as the clan leader, tried his best to avoid fighting, you humans are getting more aggressive, especially that old thief Ximen, who brought a group of human elites and threatened to slaughter all the fox demons to eliminate future troubles! This is what you humans call a hero!"

"I have to say that he was very powerful. Even Chi Ge, who had practiced for thousands of years, was no match for him and was eventually defeated by his sword. Once Chi Ge died, the entire fox demon clan was leaderless and was soon killed. The only one left was me, who was pregnant and hiding in the ice room..."

"After this battle, I was heartbroken watching the entire fox demon clan being killed by humans, but Brother Chi held on with his last breath and warned me to live well, give birth to our child, and live a peaceful life in hiding. He especially emphasized that I must not seek revenge..."

"I listened to Brother Chi and didn't seek revenge, but I didn't want to leave the Ice Room and leave Brother Chi's side. Later, I was too sad and my child miscarried, and I was the only one left here all alone. Over the past three hundred years, my tail has continued to grow, and I have nine tails like Brother Chi had back then, and I have the power that you humans call the Beast King, but I have always remembered what Brother Chi said: no revenge, no revenge, no revenge..."

"Who would have thought that you would break into this place again and refine Chi Ge's crystal core into a magic weapon. Humans, you are really the most disgusting race in the world. Even if the evil of the fox demon clan is magnified ten thousand times, it is still not as bad as you."

After listening to the story told by the nine-tailed white fox, Xiao Zhu felt that the things he had always believed in his heart seemed to be shaken. In his understanding since childhood, humans and monsters are two completely opposite groups. Humans are good and monsters are evil. Monsters constantly invade human territory and force humans into the corners of the world. The only way to survive is to gather together for warmth.

But the story of the nine-tailed fox that I heard today was the exact opposite. The peace-loving fox demon clan was slaughtered by humans, and Ximen Yeluo even refined the crystal core of the red fox king into a magic weapon, which was a great shame for the Warcraft.

In this world, what is good and what is evil?

Are the concepts that I have learned since childhood correct? Or are they the whole truth?

And what is the source of this disaster caused by monsters that has lasted for more than 1,500 years?

As Xiao Zhu came to the Lost Continent, he felt that he seemed to be close to the origin of the Warcraft disaster. There was only a layer of fog in front of him. As long as he pushed away the fog, he would be able to see the truth of the matter. But at this moment, he was a little frightened, frightened to see the naked face of the matter.

"Although I cannot represent humanity, nor can I represent Ximen Yeluo and others who harmed your clan, I am a member of the Demon Hunter Association like them, and I apologize to you," Xiao Zhu said.

He firmly believed what the nine-tailed white fox had just said. As the saying goes: When a dying man is about to speak, his words are good.

The nine-tailed white fox looked at Xiao Zhu unexpectedly, a glimmer of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she did not speak.

Xiao Zhu walked towards the nine-tailed white fox and said, "Can you let me take a look at your injuries? Although I'm not a bloodline supporter, I might be able to help you."

The nine-tailed white fox waved her hand and rejected Xiao Zhu's kindness. Seeing the attitude of the nine-tailed white fox, Xiao Zhu stood five steps in front of her. He saw a black wound as big as a fist on the chest of the nine-tailed fox. From the wound, it could be clearly seen that the heart and blood vessels were cut off.

Injuries of this degree could not be cured with Xiao Zhu's ability, unless the person had the Shen Yue bloodline like Xia Shi.

Plus, the Nine-Tailed White Fox itself refused to be treated, so there was only one possible outcome for her...

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhu felt a heart-wrenching pain again.

"Husband, Bing'er saw you... It's true, you are still the same as you were back then, tall, handsome, and gentle..." The nine-tailed fox suddenly said. Xiao Zhu saw the obsession in her eyes. She stared blankly at the empty scene in front of her, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

Afterwards, the nine-tailed white fox lay limply on the body of the red fox king, her vitality completely gone.

Xiao Zhu looked up into the sky, where there was a complicated sealing formation. When Xiao Zhu was thinking about how to leave the formation, the star disk in his hand suddenly flew into the air, emitting a bright light...
