Chapter 312: Chapter 249: I’m Just Giving You All a Chance

Xu Jian and several other high-ranking members of the Blood Moon Sect cautiously approached, cupped their hands:

“Thank you, senior, for saving our lives…”

Su Xin waved his hand, looked at the bodies scattered across the square with a compassionate expression, and sighed:

“When will the cycle of revenge end…”

“I didn’t come here today specifically to save you, I just couldn’t bear to see humans slaughtering each other.”

After saying this, he paid no more attention to them, and his figure suddenly transformed into an afterimage, sprinting down the mountain road, quickly disappearing from everyone’s sight.

In the days that followed.

Su Xin wandered everywhere, doing nothing else, spending his days acting as a mediator, preventing killings, from sect wars to bandit robberies, as long as he saw a fight, he would approach and forcibly demand the parties to give him face and stop the killing.

Though the Illusion Body couldn’t use the System Superpower.

It didn’t possess True Qi either.

But relying solely on the physical body, his combat power was exceedingly terrifying, beyond what these small sects could resist.

Moreover, rescuing with the Illusion Body was just like the master rescuing, it didn’t affect his collection of cause-and-effect points at all, after all, the Illusion Body was equivalent to a tool of Su Xin.

Thus, during this period of rescuing people everywhere and preventing conflicts, Su Xin earned a large number of cause-and-effect points.

The natives of this world, compared to the average people of White Mountain Star, had generally higher levels of life; many practiced martial arts, and on average, saving each person earned him over a hundred cause-and-effect points.

Saving a martial arts expert earned several hundred more.

And this world, unlike the peaceful era on White Mountain Star, was extremely common for battles and killings, it was encountered everywhere.

With Su Xin’s super strong five senses, he didn’t lack any business, by scanning from a high spot or listening closely, he could discover distant battles.

Then rush over to stop them.

This allowed Su Xin to quickly earn a large number of cause-and-effect points, while also rapidly gaining a reputation, or rather successfully establishing a persona for himself.

Some called him the Benevolent.

They thought he was a kind and benevolent strongman, possessing invincible strength but never killing, always acting with kindness and saving people, a refreshing stream among numerous martial arts experts.

Others called him the Idle King.

Idle, as in meddling in others’ affairs.

Many secretly ridiculed Su Xin as an irrational meddler, only blindly asking people to lay down their butcher knives, completely ignoring what grievances others had.

Furthermore.

Gradually, some began to realize that Su Xin was indeed quite pedantic, even if he stopped others from killing and left, when that person killed again, he wouldn’t be angered by it.

Even if someone provoked him face-to-face or defied his orders to attack forcefully, the most he would do is severely injure them, never kill.

As a result.

People from initially fearing him, later also stopped taking Su Xin seriously, at most temporarily adhering to his words and holding off.

Afterward, they continued to kill as they wished.

If unlucky enough to be stopped by Su Xin again, they would stop again and wait for the next opportunity.

In short, a strong person with a kind heart and soft hands really had no deterrent power to speak of, no matter how strong his power, no one was afraid.

Therefore, even though Su Xin displayed nearly invincible strength, it had no impact on the order in this region, slaughter and chaos continued as usual.

And Su Xin’s numerous meddling actions ultimately drew discontent from some.

…

At noon today.

The blazing sun shone, heat waves twisted the air.

At the south gate of Yuanshan Town, two simply dressed guards sat beside the gate, fanning themselves with palm fans, casually chatting, occasionally taking a sip of the well water, warmed by the sun, to relieve the heat.

One suddenly said:

“By the way, have you heard of the Benevolent Su Xin?”

Upon this topic, his colleague became excited, rattling off facts like an expert:

“Of course I’ve heard, the Benevolent has recently risen to fame, within a hundred miles known strongmen, none is his match, even Feng Mingzhao, the South Mountain Swift Sword at the late Sea of Qi Realm, was pinned by his palm, unable to move.”

“And the battle between Blood Moon Sect and Celestial Thunder Gang was also suppressed by him single-handedly…”

“The key point is that he’s too kind, never heard of a martial arts strongman being so kind before, instead of exploiting his powerful strength, he goes everywhere quelling disputes and stopping slaughter.”

“Unfortunately…”

“Being too kind isn’t good either, he can’t deter those real villains, heard several times the fights he stopped reignited after he left, with heavy casualties.”

“Su Xin, knowing this afterward, still couldn’t bear hurting those people, making it even less likely anyone feared him, people kept killing as needed.”

“In my opinion, if he were ruthless towards those true villains when necessary and killed a batch, then while not necessarily intimidating all sides into stopping evil, at least those guys would restrain themselves somewhat afterward.”

“But as things stand now, he’s merely drinking poison to quench thirst, not solving any problems.”

“So, this Su Xin… no matter how strong his power, his disposition isn’t, too kind, and too pedantic, hard to accomplish anything much.”

The guard speaking earlier sighed:

“Indeed, otherwise, the bandits on Cuihua Mountain wouldn’t dare be so arrogant.”

“Heard Su Xin appeared last time just a dozen kilometers away in Ye Family Town, if he had enough deterrence, the bandits from Cuihua Mountain probably wouldn’t dare act rashly for a long time.”

“And now…”

As he said this, his gaze inadvertently shifted, and suddenly noticed dozens of small black dots rapidly approaching, raising clouds of dust behind them.
