Chapter 432: This Is Enough (Chapter 2, Requesting Monthly Tickets and Flowers)

"You've changed a lot—like a different person altogether."

After speaking, Kesa's gaze finally settled on Jiang Hao.

"Hello, I am Kesa, Angel King, Junsi 9@1si@9@7@94@3, Jiang Hao."

"Hello, Angel King, I am Jiang Hao, a human from Earth."

The two exchanged introductions.

"Jiang Hao, you invited me here for a reason—speak plainly about your purpose."

Jiang Hao nodded.

Jiang Hao had no intention of beating around the bush; being direct was better.

"There isn't much to say."

"I invited you here for one purpose only: to ask you not to bother Liang Bing anymore."

"Oh? Are you speaking to me as an individual, or representing Earth's stance?"

"Guests, new demonic goods, collecting jade, county control, law, border, unconnected instructors and commanders." Bu Sha spoke up.

"Liang Bing has already planned to return the demons to the Kunsa civilization; she won't instigate anything again. Besides, she's my woman now."

Jiang Hao's personality isn't domineering—or rather, he's simply not a domineering man.

Otherwise, before this conversation, he would have acted first, then talked.

That would have been far simpler.

But Kesa was clearly not the type to compromise because of sacrifice.

"She's your woman?" This shocked Kesa.

She never expected Liang Bing had found a man.

Liang Bing had come through the Tianzha Hua Ye era alongside her.

Though Liang Bing's fate had been far better than hers, both she and Liang Bing had shared the same indifference toward men.

She never expected Liang Bing had found a man.

"What, can't I choose a man I like?" Liang Bing spoke up then.

Her words confirmed Jiang Hao's earlier statement.

Zhi Xin and Yan were both stunned.

The Demon Queen Liang Bing had found a man.

Kesa, stunned, was momentarily speechless.

Kesa had rejected Kar, yet found herself a man on Earth.

This situation was beyond her expectations.

After a moment.

Kesa looked at Jiang Hao and spoke again.

"Jiang Hao, do you understand the grudge between me and Liang Bing?"

"I know everything—Liang Bing has already told me."

The civilizations Liang Bing destroyed, the beings she killed—were numerous.

The war between her and me affected too many.

In the universe, many civilizations were swept up and destroyed because of the war between her and me.

One could say that, in the past, Liang Bing's hands were stained with blood.

But so what?

Jiang Hao is human from Earth; how many other civilizations died has nothing to do with him. He is not a cosmic police officer, and has no obligation to care about other civilizations.

Those not of our kind have different hearts.

Why should Jiang Hao care about civilizations that aren't even human?

No matter how many of them died, what does it matter to Jiang Hao? He simply wouldn't care.

Moreover, if he ever faced a powerful enemy who sought to kill him, and needed strength to resist that enemy,

Jiang Hao might choose, like Liang Bing, to use any means necessary.

The strong prey on the weak—this applies not just on Earth, but beyond it as well.

Therefore, Jiang Hao would never stand on a moral high ground to judge Liang Bing.

Jiang Hao is not a child.

He would not arbitrarily label something as good or evil.

This is precisely why, after Liang Bing came to Earth, Jiang Hao never sought her out to cause trouble.

Before his first cross-dimensional journey, Jiang Hao lacked the power to trouble Liang Bing.

But after returning from the Long Zhu world, Jiang Hao already had the power to trouble Liang Bing.

Had he targeted her then, her life would not have been easy.

But why would Jiang Hao target Liang Bing?

He has no grudge against her.

Liang Bing has harmed no one he cares about.

As for the many civilizations destroyed because of Liang Bing—what does that have to do with Jiang Hao?

He's not actually God, to meddle in everything.

Moreover, Liang Bing is one of the key characters in the original story.

Jiang Hao, inherently, actually harbored some fondness for her.

After all, this woman Liang Bing is indeed very beautiful.

Moreover, her figure was perfectly flawless.

Such a woman could almost be called a perfect temptress.

Any man would likely find it hard not to have some thoughts about her.

Jianghaobu Society was no exception.

He could control his emotions and desires.

But sometimes, Jiang Hao did not overly suppress his emotions and desires.

Because if he did, he would not be himself.

Nor would he lose the joy of being human.

If even the joy of being human were gone, what meaning would there be in living as long as he did?

People must live for something.

Not merely to exist.

"Then you should know that Liang Bing's past was not good; in her hands..."

"I know, but what does that have to do with me?"

"That was the Liang Bing of the past. Back then, I did not know her; who she was does not matter to me."

"The one I know is the present her. As long as I do not dislike the present her, that is enough."

Hearing Jiang Hao's words, Liang Bing, standing nearby, naturally wore a full smile.

She looked at Kesha with an expression of triumph.

Kesha frowned.

"If you want me to stop troubling Liang Bing, you must at least give me a reason I cannot refuse."
