“Sigh...” The old Swallow Immortal let out a long sigh, raised his cup to drink, but then put it down and said to him, “Pity me, though I borrowed some astrological insight from Daoist friend Tiansuan to benefit this region, in the end, I am still an anomaly, feared by the Heavenly Palace. Distributing grain from the official storehouses had also displeased the court of this world...”0

The hint of sorrow in his voice was inevitable.0

“Pity my kind who are barn swallows to begin with. We have always coexisted closely with humans since ancient times. How could we, unlike other transformed demons, commit acts harmful to humanity?”0

Why did you also take the risk of taking grain from official storehouses elsewhere? You must know that if the emperor at the time had the same temperament as the current emperor, he would have never let you off easily.”0

“How could I not know?”0

Swallow Immortal sighed again, “But I had an agreement with Daoist friend Tiansuan to do my utmost not to let anyone in this area starve to death. I am not human and already feared by them. If I were also untrustworthy and unrighteous, how could I have established a place in this world for nine hundred years?”0

“Swallow Immortal, you are righteous,” Song You said sincerely.0
