The hunters sang praises to Xiao Houzi, for if it hadn’t been for his discovery, there might have been a large number of casualties today.
But at this moment, a white light suddenly shone above the canyon.
This light was gentle, like a holy light descending from the sky, illuminating every hunter in the canyon. The white light was pure, like a spring breeze caressing the face, warm and peaceful.
Under the white glow, two people with holy wings descended from the sky, their feathers so pure and gentle, as if messengers sent from heaven, handsome and elegant, inspiring awe.
"This is... this is the Holy Light of the Divine Envoy!" Uncle Liang said excitedly.
"It’s the Divine Envoys! It’s really the Divine Envoys!"
Many hunters looked at Kari and Rock with reverence, the radiance on these two was just too conspicuous, dazzlingly bright.
Kari and Rock listened to the hunters’ discussions, greatly satisfied. As expected, as long as they appeared in this manner, they could surely command the attention of the audience.
"Next, they should be kneeling to welcome us, right?" Rock asked in a voice only they could hear.
"They will, the livestock of the Human Race worship our kind of image very much."
Kari had encountered the Human Race before. Every time he appeared in front of them, they would worship him, and he enjoyed this feeling of trampling humans underfoot.
Now he was also waiting for these hunters in the canyon to kneel on the ground and pray for his blessing.
But as moments passed, the hunters of the Human Race seemed to only be watching these two, with none kneeling or saluting, as if they had forgotten all etiquette.
This made Kari and Rock frown, something wasn’t right. Why did these lowly humans suddenly not kneel?
Xiang Beifei watched the two calmly, with his "Respected as a Criterion" present, these hunters would never kneel.
"Are the Divine Envoys here to save us?" someone excitedly asked.
"Save us my ass, we already have confidence to deal with the Netherworld Spirits now. Divine Envoys, did you see just now? We shot the Netherworld Spirits full of holes!" Jiang Chuan laughed.
"Indeed! How do you think our methods of dealing with the Netherworld Spirits are? Isn’t it satisfying?" Jiang Dahe also spoke.
"The Divine Envoys must also find it satisfying! After all, the Divine Envoys are on our side, aren’t they?" Uncle Liang asked.
Kari and Rock were really fuming inside!
Their own kind had been slaughtered by these hunters, and now these hunters had the nerve to question their feelings?
Yet on the surface, they had to remain calm, and could only say gently: "Of course, we stand with you."
"Do the two of you also think that those hairless, hideous, parentless, beastlike cruel and inhumane Meat-Winged Monsters deserved to die?" Xiang Beifei spoke up.
He had no reservations in cursing the Meat-Winged Monsters, pointing directly at them as he cursed.
Kari and Rock almost exploded with anger!
The bastard dared to curse them right to their face!
Yet they couldn’t retort!
Kari’s eyes flashed with cold light, but he still said with a gentle expression: "Perhaps."
"Perhaps? Only perhaps? Do you two Divine Envoys think that killing Meat-Winged Monsters is not the correct thing to do?" Xiang Beifei asked.
Kari was already quite impatient inside. What on earth was going on with this foolish human? How dare he question my words?
But he continued to smile: "Slaughter is not a way to solve problems."
"Oh? Slaughter is not a way to solve problems? Do you, Divine Envoy, think that shooting dead the Meat-Winged Monsters with arrows is actually a wrong solution? Are you speaking on behalf of the Meat-Winged Monsters?" Xiang Beifei feigned surprise.
"No need to speak nonsense, we have always been protecting you, but we always advocate for peace and broad-mindedness, living in harmony. We just don’t like to see slaughter." Kari still said gently.
"Oh, so that’s how it is! So you Divine Envoys pretend to be blind when the Meat-Winged Monsters brutally slaughter us humans, but suddenly see clearly when we shoot the Meat-Winged Monsters, and even think we are narrow-minded for doing so?" Xiang Beifei retorted.
All the hunters looked at each other, furrowing their brows.
Xiao Houzi’s words were harsh, but they were justified.
They all disliked what the Divine Envoy had to say.
One must know that in previous years, these Yellow Spring demons used various cruel tactics to harm humans, taking pleasure in torturing them, employing countless despicable and cruel methods, leading to numerous human deaths at their hands.
Yet the Divine Envoy never appeared in time to save them; everything depended on humans finding their own ways to escape, as many as could manage. Now these hunters were merely venting, finally seizing an opportunity to organize a counterattack, to shoot the Yellow Spring demons with arrows. And yet these two Divine Envoys descended from the sky, accusing them of being narrow-minded?
Do only Yellow Spring demons get to kill humans, but humans killing Yellow Spring demons is considered narrow-minded?
All the hunters felt anger in their hearts towards the words of the Divine Envoy.
Kari obviously already had intentions of killing, but still said, "That’s not what I meant. I just wanted to tell everyone that an eye for an eye leads nowhere. I hope you can maintain a peaceful mindset in dealing with this matter."
"What a load of crap about an eye for an eye! When those Yellow Spring beasts were killing us, why didn’t you so-called Divine Envoys say that an eye for an eye leads nowhere? So we’re just supposed to be killed by those beasts? Are you hypocrites out of your minds? Why don’t you tell those Yellow Spring beasts to stop the slaughter? To keep a peaceful mindset?"
Jiang Chuan suddenly shouted in anger.
But after saying this, even Jiang Chuan himself was shocked!
He actually... actually spoke such disrespectful words to the Divine Envoy!
This was to commit a grave offense! If this had been in the tribe before, the elders would have caught anyone talking to the Divine Envoy and cut their tongue!
Many hunters were also very surprised, not expecting Jiang Chuan to say such things.
But for some reason, today they seemed much bolder, daring to shoot the Yellow Spring demons, daring to rebuke the Divine Envoy, even daring to question the words of the Divine Envoy!
At this moment, Jiang Shan suddenly spoke out, "Since you Divine Envoys don’t like to see slaughter, why not stop the Yellow Spring demons from coming to kill us? You have always instilled us with ideas of peace and broad-mindedness, but you have never expressed these ideas to the Yellow Spring demons. I have found that every time in the past when the Yellow Spring demons slaughter us humans, you always arrive late. Only when the killing is nearly complete do you show up. Do you have some connection with the Yellow Spring demons?"
With Jiang Shan speaking up, all the hunters could no longer sit still. Each hunter thought about it carefully and found that Jiang Shan’s words were true, the facts were indeed !
In the past, when they were too weak to fight against the Yellow Spring demons, they prayed for the Divine Envoy to save them. Even if the Divine Envoy arrived late, they were still grateful for the salvation, not daring to question why the powerful Moon God didn’t come sooner.
But today, it seemed as if everyone had discarded the mindset instilled by the Moon God, starting to have their own thoughts, as if they suddenly awakened, breaking free from the shackles of the Moon God.
"These Divine Envoys are suspicious; they suddenly feel very hypocritical!"
Uncle Liang also spoke, but then quickly gasped, covering his mouth in shock, exclaiming, "How could I dare to say such things?"
But more and more hunters began to speak up.
"It seems the Divine Envoys allow the Yellow Spring demons to kill us."
"Right, these Divine Envoys have never helped us eliminate those Yellow Spring demons."
"Do they think it’s normal for Yellow Spring demons to kill us?"
Countless hunters began voicing the doubts in their minds, causing Kari and Rock’s expressions to darken slightly.
"What’s going on? Kari, wasn’t it said that the livestock of the Human Race have always believed our words without question?" Rock asked in a low voice.
Kari was also unclear, as humans in Changpan Valley considered those with wings as gods. Due to cultural suppression, their thoughts were exceedingly simple, and each person from a young age had unwavering faith in the Moon God.
But today’s situation was clearly very unusual.
Instinctively, Kari turned his gaze to Xiao Houzi from the Human Race, but quickly realized that Xiang Beifei was also looking at him!
Kari’s heart skipped a beat!
For some reason, he felt an inexplicable fear while meeting the gaze of this human!
