Tao Yu hadn't even spoken when the boat captain launched into such a fervent tirade, leaving Hou Xibai momentarily stunned.
Hou Xibai's own cultivation was not weak, and his mindset would also have been strong, had it not been suppressed by the Mercy Temple faction.
He could sense that the boat captain's anger came from the heart, and it was hard for him to imagine that the man was lying about his feelings.
This caused Hou Xibai to waver internally, and he thought of Shi Feixuan's request to him.
'Although Tao Yu has the style of the Demon Sect, Feixuan doesn't see him as someone who delights in slaughter without cause... There might be other reasons...'
It was for this reason that Hou Xibai had come alone this time.
Otherwise, given the rumors that the otherworldly Heavenly Demon demanded the lives of three children at a meal, if he still harbored a resisting mindset, he would simply be coming to throw his life away for nothing.
