"Alright, you can get up," Lin Mu said, moved by compassion. "I called you out, so naturally, I don't intend to kill you."
"Ah?"
The woman was startled, her expression one of utter disbelief.
Not kill her?
In her experience, everyone presented themselves as righteous champions, crusading against evil for the good of the people. A remnant spirit like her, having survived for so long, was something the Heavenly Dao itself could not tolerate. Killing or suppressing her would grant one countless merits.
Yet, this young man actually said he wouldn't kill her?
"To utterly destroy an innocent remnant spirit just for a few paltry merits? I, Lin Mu, would never stoop so low," Lin Mu said with a smile. "Besides, who made the rule that remnant spirits must only harm the living and are incapable of good?"
