Compared to the benefits brought by Lu Erjie to the nearby villagers back then, the pig demon brought even more advantages. Therefore, the villagers harbor no hatred or fear towards the pig demon, but rather a bit of respect.
"Xiao Bai, what do you think of the demon occupying this place? Should it be added to our menu?"
Chen Sanzang casually asked as he handpicked a sack of wild mushrooms from the villagers, while Little White Dragon was selecting a few live fish beside him.
"Sounds like a good demon, but we don't know how heavy its karma is. We should meet it first to judge the kind of intelligence regular people can't detect. However, the pig demon itself is a treasure, and if we cook it, it would definitely be delicious."
Not every demon that protects a region's villagers is necessarily a good one; it might only be raising them as its reserve food supply.
Karma is the most direct standard to determine whether a being is evil or not.
