"You, if you are unwilling to sacrifice for the common people of the world, then you are a sinner. Executing a sinner is entirely reasonable," Ma Guoyou said without a trace of guilt. His tone was extremely calm, showing no regret, as if he were stating a perfectly normal matter.
It was precisely this tone and attitude that made one's blood run colder.
Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but exclaim, "I truly detest their attitude. It's utterly absurd. How can any normal human being be like this?"
These people, in their words and actions, did not seem to regard themselves as human at all. They were more like detached observers, viewing themselves and humanity from a third-party perspective.
It was as if they were solely focused on accomplishing their own goals, and the price paid in the process was something they would turn a blind eye to. As long as the goal could be achieved, the cost was paid, regardless of how many lives were lost.
"For the common people, for this world, to dedicate oneself as the ultimate masterpiece of us Heavenly Healers, what is there to refuse? This is supreme honor!" Ma Guoyou continued. He lowered his head and looked at Ning Fengzhi, saying, "Your lineage of the lowly Underworld Healers naturally cannot comprehend our nobility."
"?"
Ning Fengzhi was immediately displeased. Why were they being called lowly Underworld Healers?
They neither stole nor robbed, nor did they bully ordinary people. Yet, in this man's words, they became lowly Underworld Healers?
If forbearance has its limits, then this was beyond them!
The Underworld Healer, at this moment, also frowned, staring at this man. Indeed, even after so many years, he still loathed the Heavenly Healers.
Arrogant and dismissive.
"Speak your mind, but do not resort to personal attacks," Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow. "According to your logic, I too am a descendant of a lowly lineage."
"Respected Divine Doctor, you are naturally different," Ma Guoyou immediately replied. "To be hailed as a Divine Doctor, your medical skills possess a height we cannot reach. You can also achieve things that we ordinary mortals cannot."
"But my medical skills all come from the Ning family. Weren't you just saying that the Ning family's Underworld Healer lineage is lowly?" Lin Xiao pressed.
"...You learned your medical skills from the Underworld Healers' lineage?" Ma Guoyou's face instantly changed. He stared at Lin Xiao, his eyes filled with endless confusion. He couldn't comprehend why a Divine Doctor would learn from the Ning family.
"Is there a problem with that?" Lin Xiao retorted.
"Yes, what's the problem?!"
Ning Fengzhi immediately chimed in. Although it was the first time he learned that Lin Xiao's medical skills came from their lineage, likely taught by his grandnephew, it was clear that Lin Xiao had indeed surpassed his predecessors.
However, at this moment, Ma Guoyou's gaze shifted, and the atmosphere in the room changed. From this moment on, Ma Guoyou and the other two regarded Lin Xiao with hostility.
"The lowly, unprogressive Underworld Healers who survive in this world through unorthodox means. I never expected you to have learned your medical skills from them. It seems I was mistaken," Ma Guoyou said slowly. At this moment, even Lin Xiao's esteemed status could not quell his hostility.
"So, are you now going to... clean up the garbage for this world?"
