Saints believe that as long as the common people at the bottom can "return hatred with directness", they are considered upright.
When barns are full knows the ceremony, when there is enough food and clothing knows honor and disgrace; who cares about etiquette and honor when they can't eat their fill or keep warm!
Because the common people are shortsighted and can only see immediate benefits, as long as they are offered greater advantages, they will immediately abandon Huang Jiao and turn to Jiang Chen's embrace.
Of course, it cannot be denied that after so many years of secretly developing the Yellow Heaven Dao, Huang Jiao couldn't possibly be without loyal followers; there are definitely plenty of zealots.
For those people, Jiang Chen had nothing to say, he could only let them die along with Huang Jiao. The thoughts of the zealots were already different from normal people; incurable, beyond salvation.
Killing them might grant them release.
