“Yuki, you can do the honors.” Haruhi knew Yuki needed to let some anger out. So she decided to give the honors to her.

“Really!?” Yuki’s lips curled up into a bright smile as she suddenly cracked her knuckles and then disappeared.

Seeing the young girl disappear like that, the only man quickly became alert, but before he could even react, he was suddenly slammed to the ground and punched in the face not just once but ten times!  “This is for being a dog! No, wait, this is mean to dogs…..” Yuki pursed her lips as she thought for a moment, then sent another punch down into the old man’s face. “This is for being a bastard!”

“Yuki, I said to make sure he is crippled, not beat him to death.” Haruhi held her head. This girl only cared about seeing blood!

“Oops!” Yuki cheekily smiled and rubbed her nose before jumping up into the air and doing a full flip before slamming her feet down hard on the old man’s abdomen. 

“No!!!!!!!!” The old man cried out as a loud, shattering sound came from within his body.  He could feel the rest of his cultivation slipping away. “Bastards! I will kill you all!” 

The old man’s roar filled the hall, but no one paid attention to it. His cultivation quickly disappeared to the point that he was now a mortal with no cultivation at all! Yuki snorted and walked back to Haruhi’s side. She did not know how the old man would end up, but she was sure these people would not let him off easily.

“As for how you will deal with the ex-village chief, I will leave it to you. As for who will become the next village chief any opinions?” Haruhi completely ignored the old man, who was not being tied up by the villagers.

    “I would like to suggest someone.” An older woman stepped forward. “He is well liked in the village, although he is unable to cultivate, he has been helping us villagers all the time, even when we had no food.”

“Oh? Who is this?” Haruhi raised an eyebrow. She could see that all the villagers seemed to know who the older woman was talking about and were nodding their heads.

“It’s Little Fu.” The older woman replied. 

“Him huh? Well, he can cultivate once he takes this pill here and if I am correct he will have a cultivation higher than the old man.” Haruhi had already seen it. The young man named Little Fu was actually a high cultivation, but it was being suppressed by the poison in him. Luckily this kind of poison was nothing and any detox pill could handle it. And she was one who always carried such pills on her just in case. It was most likely the old man who poisoned him since he was afraid of his position being taken. Such greed is what made the old man lose everything.

Greed was an evil thing. It was the same thing that kept people gambling. If you think you can win, your own mind will cause you to have a compulsion to spend more in order to try to win the next time and then the next and the time after that as well. Of course, this was mainly for those with weak wills who were unable to fight against their own compulsion.

“I… I can cultivate again!?” Little Fu was shocked. He had thought he would never be able to cultivate again in this lifetime. His cultivation had even dropped, but now…. He suddenly plopped down in front of Haruhi, his eyes red, and pressed his forehead against the ground. “I will do my everything to not only keep this village flourishing but also to uphold the pact between this village and the Heavenly Cloud Sect.”

“Then, as long as everyone is okay with it, I will appoint Little Fu here as the next village Chief. Is this good with everyone?” Haruhi looked around the room. When she saw that no one was stepping forward to reject, she smiled and stood up. She took out a small bottle and handed it to Little Fu. “From now on, that seat is yours. I have a group of about thirty people who need a new home. I hope you, you all can welcome them with open arms. As for the food, I will show you the way so that you can do a full distribution of food.”

Yuki was actually really happy things worked out this way. From what she heard from the villages who were keeping the old man tied up, they planned to tie him to a stake in the middle of town and have a large feast for the next few nights. He will not be given any food or drink during that time. If he is still alive even after the celebration ends, then they will just leave him there to rot until he finally passes away. Only then would they untie him and toss his body into the forest nearby so the demonic beasts could feast on his flesh. They did not want to give the old man a peaceful afterlife.

Yuki learned a lot from how Haruhi dealt with the situation. Sometimes, blood was not the answer, but for her, it was the only answer. She had to restrain herself since Haruhi was her senior sister, but if it was just her alone, she would have long slaughtered the old man and then asked someone else about what was going on. Just knowing these were her own thoughts made Yuki wonder just how crazy she had become. But no matter how crazy she got. Her path one filled with the blood of others as she consumed the souls of her enemies.
