Leave Room for Mercy
"You stupid dog, you take advantage of me!"
"If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll never know your place!"
"I hope you truly realize your mistakes and repent, and will no longer speak recklessly or entertain unrealistic ideas!"
Du Bai spoke seriously.
"Woof woof woof!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Big Yellow Dog immediately howled and promised that he would never disobey again!
After hearing this, Du Bai's expression softened considerably.
Romor, the Thousand-Faced Marquis, and the guards around them listened quietly to the conversation between Young Master Du Bai and Mr. Big Yellow Dog.
The confusion and bewilderment that had been on their faces were gone.
The two thieves and the guards had already accepted the fact that Mr. Big Yellow Dog could understand human speech, and that Young Master Du could understand what it was saying.
Because when Du Bai left, they tried to communicate with this Mr. Big Yellow Dog.
As it turns out, Mr. Big Yellow Dog is very intelligent. He can understand human language and even respond to it. He's practically a miracle dog!
"You stupid dog, since you're being sincere in admitting your mistake, I'll let you off this time!"
Du Bai spoke to Mr. Big Yellow Dog.
Upon hearing this, the silly dog immediately looked as if it had been granted a pardon, sticking out its tongue and laughing "hahaha" to curry favor with Du Bai.
If Mr. Big Yellow Dog weren't currently bound by a thick iron chain, it would probably have already wagged its tail and run over to rub against Du Bai's leg.
"Someone, untie this stupid dog and let it go!"
Du Bai relayed the instructions to the guards around him.
"Yes, sir!"
"As Young Master Du commands!"
"..."
The three guards behind Du Bai immediately replied respectfully.
They immediately went forward and untied Mr. Big Yellow Dog as quickly as possible.
Once freed, Mr. Big Yellow Dog became energetic, jumping off the chair and shaking himself to stretch his muscles.
Then, it came to Du Bai's side and frantically rubbed its golden head against Du Bai's thigh, trying to please Du Bai!
After a day and a night of reflection and contemplation, the Big Yellow Dog has finally realized that if it wants to live a comfortable life, it has to obey this terrifying human, or its life will be in danger!
Now, Mr. Big Yellow Dog finally truly understood Du Bai's terrifying strength!
Especially today, the mysterious aura emanating from Du Bai, this terrifying human, sends chills down one's spine.
In addition, he had witnessed the tragic fates of the two petty thieves, Romor and Thousand-Faced Marquis.
Mr. Big Yellow Dog no longer wanted to offend this man!
At this moment, Mr. Big Yellow Dog just wants to go back to his dog team and continue being his dog emperor!
Romor and Thousand-Faced Marquis, two petty thieves who had offended Du Bai in the past, now looked on with envy at the Mr. Big Yellow Dog had gained his freedom.
If possible, they both want to be untied and freed!
"Greetings, Young Master Du!"
"I wonder if Young Master Du has been able to visit the Dream Treasure Cave?"
The Thousand-Faced Marquis took the initiative to strike up a conversation.
"Not yet."
Du Bai replied calmly.
The Thousand-Faced Marquis swallowed hard, then continued speaking:
"Young Master Du, the location of the Dream Treasure Cave is definitely real!"
"I have a question I'd like to ask Young Master Du!"
Du Bai glanced at Romor indifferently.
"Speak!"
Young Master Du replied coldly.
"Young Master Du, is there any hope for Moore and me to ever regain our freedom in this lifetime?"
"If possible, we would like to make amends and serve you, as long as you set us free!"
"Moore and I are skilled thieves. Just give the order, and we'll steal all the treasures in the world for you!"
"There's nothing in this world we can't steal. We can infiltrate the imperial palace, sneak into sects, or even infiltrate the Spirit Hall. We can steal anything for you!"
Romor spoke with utmost seriousness, his face filled with determination, his sole aim being the pursuit of freedom.
"Yes, Young Master Du!"
"We offended you before, and that was wrong of us. We have already received the punishment we deserved!"
"Even if you gave me the guts of a lion, we wouldn't dare offend you again!"
"Moreover, you and your wife are far too young. The Thousand-Faced Marquis and I were bewitched and wanted to take advantage of the young, which is why we attacked you!"
"We will never dare to do it again. Please spare us. We are willing to do anything for you!"
Romor continued, picking up where the Thousand-Faced Marquis left off, and pleaded for mercy.
Through Romor and Thousand-Faced Marquis's words, Du Bai sensed their strong will to survive!
Mr. Big Yellow Dog, on the other hand, was relieved that he hadn't offended this terrifying man too much, otherwise he would have been imprisoned for life and subjected to severe torture like these two poor humans!
Du Bai frowned slightly, seriously considering what the two were saying.
If we were to take them in and use them as loyal and hardworking subordinates, that wouldn't be a bad idea.
However, the Clear Wind Manor and the Four Great Families are currently enjoying a peaceful and harmonious scene, so there is no need for manpower or force!
If we were to release those two petty thieves, Romor and the Thousand-Faced Marquis, now...
I'm afraid those two will get into trouble again!
Du Bai would never allow anyone who posed a threat, like a landmine, to be planted around him!
Therefore, after a moment of contemplation, Du Bai made a decisive decision and refused directly.
"You two are truly despicable; you steal and rob, and you don't even spare women!"
"What's even worse is that they always take the spoils of war!"
"I don't trust you for now, and I don't need you to do anything for me right now!"
"You all should stay here and reflect on your actions first!"
"When I need your help in the future, I will naturally come to you!"
Du Bai replied earnestly, not making any absolute statements, leaving the two of them a glimmer of Life Force!
As the saying goes, "Leave a way out for others, so you can meet again in the future." "Leave some leeks to be harvested, so you can continue to exploit them in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Romor and Thousand-Faced Marquis both showed a hint of disappointment in their eyes. It seemed they would have to stay in this prison for a while longer.
"Yes, Young Master Du, we understand!"
"We'll think about it carefully here!"
Romor forced a smile and replied.
"Young Master Du, we understand! We will think it over carefully!"
The Thousand-Faced Marquis could only respond helplessly.
Although the two petty thieves were unwilling to be trapped in the cell, there was nothing they could do; it was not something they could decide.
After giving the two petty thieves one last look, Du Bai went to explain some specific details to the guards and the Soul Master healers in the cell before leaving with Mr. Big Yellow Dog.
"Respectfully seeing off Young Master Du!"
"Respectfully seeing off Young Master Du!"
"..."
The guards and the Soul Master healers respectfully saw them off.
And so, Du Bai departed amidst the respectful farewells of the crowd.
Du Bai first led Mr. Big Yellow Dog to its kennel at the Clear Wind Manor and warned it to stay there obediently.
The Mr. Big Yellow Dog nodded sensibly, indicating that it would not misbehave again.
Du Bai then left with peace of mind.
Good evening everyone! Good afternoon! Good night! Have a happy and carefree day! May everything go smoothly for you!
