#416 - Chapter 416: The Scholar of Death, Black and White
Bai Su nodded upon hearing Li Ergou's words, saying, "Existence is its own justification.
Didn't I say that things in this world aren't simply black and white? Whether it's people or demons, there are good and bad among them.
We can't generalize; some demons kill, others save.
Some demons even help us humans to resist powerful enemies, like the guardian beasts of various sects, each a peerless great demon.
As long as they serve me, they are a good thing.
Identity isn't important; what matters is your character.
Great Xia embraces all, and as long as you aren't evil, you can stand on the side of justice.
This is the fundamental reason why Great Xia has stood for ten thousand years."
After listening to Bai Su's explanation, Li Ergou genuinely felt that the higher he stood, the less he knew about the world.
It turned out he was truly a cultivation novice; this must be the sorrow of a wild cultivator.
At that moment, he nodded, saying, "So, as long as you're not on Great Xia's wanted list, whether you're a demonic cultivator or a demon cultivator, you can all serve the Great Xia court.
But can these people really be trusted?"
Bai Su's beautiful eyes flashed as she said, "You don't know this, but aside from some special individuals who are entrusted with important tasks, the rest are managed by specialized institutions.
Otherwise, if these people go mad, who knows how many living beings they would harm."
Li Ergou nodded, thinking that this was how it should be; if they were truly left unchecked, who knew when these guys would suddenly go crazy?
In his heart, he still didn't quite agree with this approach, but the laws of Great Xia were what they were, and it wasn't something a small constable like him could control.
Looking at Bai Su, he suddenly asked, "You're from Qingcheng, so what is Qingcheng Mountain like?"
"Qingcheng is beautiful, but unfortunately, I don't have the chance to take you to see its beauty.
Perhaps 'tranquility reveals far-reaching influence' can describe Qingcheng."
Li Ergou immediately said, "Okay, when I have the chance, I'll definitely go there to see it."
"Why do you suddenly want to go there?"
"Um, I don't know; maybe it's just a whim."
Ye Wanwan interjected at the right moment, "Today we enter the rematch, and there are more and more people left.
Ergou-ge, you're not still thinking about getting beaten up today, are you?
Many people are calling you a pervert."
Li Ergou: "…"
The martial arts arena was already packed with people.
The moment Li Ergou appeared, he was recognized by the crowd, and someone immediately shouted, "Li Ergou is here!"
A group of young ladies made sweet sounds, saying, "Li Ergou, go! Li Ergou, go!"
"Wow, Li Ergou is so handsome!
I want to ask my dad to arrange for me to marry him."
"Hey, the person is good, but can't he change his name?
It's too rustic."
"Ergou is so unique!
I like it."
"Go, go, go, you little sluts!
Ergou is mine."
A flamboyant middle-aged woman looked at Li Ergou's direction with seductive eyes.
Li Ergou didn't expect to be so loved by women of all classes, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
He thought that if he couldn't make it in the court in the future, he could sell his skills and probably support himself.
Bai Su snorted, seeing Li Ergou's smug look, and said, "Are you feeling quite pleased with yourself?"
"No, no, no, you've misunderstood.
I, hey, when did you start caring about me so much?"
He looked straight at Bai Su, and Bai Su's face immediately turned red, saying, "Bah, shameless."
Saying that, she turned her head to look to the side.
Li Ergou smiled mischievously and said, "Just kidding.
Huh, why is your face red?"
Bai Su: "…"
Then, he saw her suddenly kick out, hitting Li Ergou's butt.
This happened too suddenly, and Li Ergou was caught off guard and kicked away by Bai Su.
"Ah…"
The second round of the competition began, and Li Ergou drew number twenty-nine.
Today was the rematch, and the people who could participate were not easy to deal with; each of them was very fierce.
Li Ergou was watching Xiong Ba's match.
It had to be said that this guy, as the chief constable of Longcang City, really had some skills.
This person was actually a martial arts cultivator, with impressive horizontal training skills.
He wasn't afraid of his opponent's attacks at all, and he could even withstand them with his strong body.
His opponent was a talisman cultivator, who kept offering his talismans, with various explosions and rumbles, but unfortunately, there was no way to deal with Xiong Ba.
In the end, Xiong Ba punched out and directly knocked his opponent away, ending the battle and easily winning the match.
Li Ergou muttered in his heart that this Xiong Ba seemed to really have some skills.
He just didn't know who would be better at withstanding a beating if he and Xiong Ba were forced to compete.
He hoped to be assigned to the same arena as Xiong Ba so that he could also compete.
Soon, it was Li Ergou's turn to play.
Perhaps because he was too dazzling yesterday, many people were looking forward to seeing his game.
For a time, everyone flocked to the bottom of his ring to watch.
The opponents in the other two arenas were all itching their teeth with hatred for Li Ergou because no one was watching.
Wouldn't their gorgeous moves be unwitnessed, and even the fierce battles would be in vain?
For a while, the opponents in the other two arenas were in low spirits.
Standing on the stage, Li Ergou suddenly had a feeling of being the focus of everyone's attention, but at this moment, he was really nervous.
He wondered if he should sing a song to relieve the pressure.
Just as he was thinking wildly, a person flew up to the stage, turned over with a graceful dance, and gently landed in front of Li Ergou.
This person was dressed in white, with a headscarf covering his entire hair and forehead.
He had a snow-white face, slender eyes, a full forehead, and a straight nose, looking like a scholar.
At this moment, someone under the ring immediately recognized him and said, "The Doomed Scholar, it's actually him!
Alas, Li Ergou is doomed to lose.
He is the ninth-ranked of the top ten constables in Baojing Prefecture.
How could an unknown Li Ergou be his opponent?
In the end, it's just a flash in the pan."
"Tch, what do you know?
What eighth and ninth place?
I'm just optimistic about Li Ergou!
I bet he wins."
"Bah, what Ergou and Sangou?
I'll bet he loses.
If he wins, I'll stand upside down…"
Eh, thinking of the miserable look of eating shit yesterday, he still forcibly resisted the idea and continued, "I, stand upside down and pee."
The people below booed, but Li Ergou was not careless at all, and he would not underestimate any of his opponents.
Yu Tailai had told him that no matter who he fought, he could suppress his opponent in momentum, but he must pay attention to his opponent in battle.
Who knew what powerful trump card his opponent would suddenly take out?
At this moment, the Doomed Scholar opened the folding fan in his hand and looked at Li Ergou, saying, "It is said that heroes have emerged from ancient times.
I see that you are not very old, but you are quite resistant to beatings.
Why don't you see if you can withstand my attack today?"
Li Ergou was dumbfounded.
He looked at the Doomed Scholar and said, "Do you mean that I should be beaten without fighting back?"
