"Path of Suffering?"
At Hu Lu Academy, Gongshu Zhu, who was fishing, paused and said, "I've heard of it… It seems to be a branch of the Snake and Rat Sect, mixed up with the Purgatory Path as well. These people outwardly claim that if you believe in them, you can stay away from troubles and all that, but in reality, it's nothing but a cult's game. Once you join, it's a bottomless abyss, beyond redemption."
Ybur asked, "Doesn't the government care?"
"Of course they do."
Gongshu Zhu, appearing quite detached, stated, "The authorities smash lewd cults every year, strangling these evil demons."
"That's good then," Ybur nodded, but after thinking it over, he still sounded somewhat uncertain, "Here in Jiuxia, the officials aren't in cahoots with the cults, are they?"
Gongshu Zhu looked at him with a bizarre expression, at a loss for words.
