God of Pets-Chapter 394: Feng Zhantian

Only now did Chen Guan understand that Abyss City was not the den of heinous criminals he had imagined.

"Feng Zhantian, you’re wrong. Giving birth to a Demon is already a serious crime. If you’ve committed a crime, you naturally need to accept punishment and reform yourself." An officer said coldly.

Gu Chengfeng and the old priest immediately felt things were amiss, and Gu Chengfeng promptly ordered the officer to shut up.

But it was too late; the residents of Abyss City all looked at the soldiers of the City of No Tears with changed expressions.

"Do you hear that? In their eyes, you are unforgivable criminals, mere trash that gave birth to Demons. From the moment you decided to have children, you were no longer their kind." Feng Zhantian’s voice made the residents inside Abyss City appear even more vicious.

"What are you doing? Haven’t you realized yet? Demons are not human. You can’t believe a single word they say." The old priest shouted, like a thunderclap, awakening the residents of Abyss City.

Chen Guan thought, "Anyone else can say this, but aren’t you a Demon yourself?"

Sure enough, Feng Zhantian interjected, "Old priest, aren’t you a Demon yourself? You are just like us, are you not human either? Are you also a demonic existence? If someone like you is deemed a Demon, what is wrong with them giving birth to Demon offspring? It’s not us, so-called Demons, who bring them endless suffering, but your own kind, those humans..."

The residents of Abyss City, who had been stirred by the old priest’s shout, remembered their children taken and killed by force, the humiliation and suffering they endured over the years, and their expressions turned even more different.

"I’m not like you..." The old priest was clearly no match for Feng Zhantian in words, unable to say anything in rebuttal.

But Feng Zhantian continued, "Humans despise you for birthing Demons. We Demons do not. To us, you are like holy figures who created the miracle of the Demon race. If you wish, you can come to Wind Demon City. There, you can continue to have children, and no one will judge you or treat you as outcasts... you will face no punishment... you will earn only respect..."

"You... you... you’re talking nonsense..." The old priest’s voice trembled with anger. He tried to speak to the residents of Abyss City, but when he saw their expressions, he realized nothing he said now would work.

"Feng Zhantian, is what you’re saying true?" An evil spirit asked Feng Zhantian from outside the city.

"Absolutely. Demons are true to their word, unlike the deceitful humans." Feng Zhantian said calmly.

"Evil spirit, what are you planning to do?" The old priest shouted in anger.

The evil spirit sneered, "Plan what? They killed my child and my wife, so I stopped considering myself human, which is why I call myself evil spirit. What Demons? What humans? I only know those beasts all deserve to die."

As the evil spirit stepped forward, more and more residents sided with the evil spirit, intending to open the city gates and join the Demons.

Jin Taohua watched all this coldly, not stopping anyone.

"Don’t listen to their nonsense. Demons are naturally evil and can never change. You..." Gu Chengfeng tried to persuade these people, but to no avail, only having his subordinates draw their swords, aiming at those residents of Abyss City looking to join the Demons.

"Let them go." Jin Taohua spoke up.

"But if they side with the Demons, and bear children, the likelihood of their offspring being Demons is very high, and unlike the low birth rate between Demons..." Gu Chengfeng expressed his concerns.

"You’ve already abandoned Abyss City, didn’t you consider this possibility?" Jin Taohua said dismissively.

Gu Chengfeng froze there, helplessly chuckling bitterly, stepping aside as Jin Taohua had said.

Many residents of Abyss City followed the evil spirit out of Abyss City and towards the Demons.

Initially, some hesitated, but eventually, the vast majority of residents went out.

Among the remaining residents inside the city were mostly the old guards who used to oversee these residents. Due to earlier circumstances, these old guards were trapped in Abyss City, unable to leave, becoming part of the city.

"Husband... come with me... let’s go to Wind Demon City... where no one will despise us... we can still have children..." A woman pulled on her husband’s hand, wanting him to join her on the Demon side.

"Don’t believe those Demons. They are inhuman." The man held the woman’s hand and said.

"Husband, how can you say that? Have you forgotten who killed our child? And who trapped us here?" The woman exclaimed.

"Our child was a Demon, he was never meant to be born, don’t you understand that after all these years?" The man tried to reason.

"Nobody is born a Devil. If we raise him well, he’d change. But they didn’t give our child a chance, he deserved the right to live..." The woman screamed passionately.

The man looked at the seemingly crazed woman, his eyes filled with despair, "Wife, we can leave the Secret Realm, and have a normal child."

"Have you forgotten about our child? Don’t you want revenge for him?" The woman looked at the man, her eyes filled with disappointment, "Come with me, we could still bring him back..."

"You are truly mad." The man said, full of agony.

"Are you coming with me or not?" The woman asked through clenched teeth.

The man shook his head, "Don’t go, Demons can’t be trusted."

"Fine, if you won’t go, I will. You’ve forgotten our child, but I haven’t." The woman released the man’s hand and ran steadfastly toward outside the city, defiant and determined, ignoring his calls, not looking back.

Watching more people leave Abyss City, Gu Chengfeng and the old priest were filled with helplessness.

They were never a match for the Demons, and now that most of the city’s residents had defected to the Demons, there was no longer a fight to be had.

"Your choice is correct, only with us Demons will you gain respect." Feng Zhantian looked at them with a smile and said, "Take them to rest."

His adjutant led people over, and the residents of Abyss City thought Feng Zhantian was taking them away from the battlefield, silently breathing a sigh of relief that at least they might survive.

But when those soldiers approached them, each drew the Celestial Demon Sword, killing most of them in an instant, without a chance or ability to resist. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The woman who had broken with her husband had her head severed by the Celestial Demon Sword, rolling far away, eyes still wide open.

For the first time, Chen Guan saw the brutality of the Demons firsthand, realizing they were fundamentally different from humans.
