Chen Fan simply regarded me coldly and snorted in a condescending manner. "Little insect."
Yeah, because if the antagonists and villains look down on the protagonist, they deserve death, but if the protagonist was the one insulting and looking down on the antagonists and villains, the readers would find him cool. Especially the edgelords who love "ruthless" main characters while ironically hating the "evil villain." Don't ask me why. Edgelords were illogical to begin with, and most of them were outright hypocrites who indulged in double standards.
"If you get in my way, I don't care who you are, I will kill you." Chen Fan issued a warning to me. I scratched my head, not sure how to respond to his threat.
"Um, you do realize you are killing innocent monks just because you want to rob them of their treasure, right?"
"I need the treasure," Chen Fan replied.
"At least offer something in return! Otherwise what makes you better than a robber?"
