Having taken care of the old Daoists, Bai Long decided to hunt some kids. After all, he needs to feed his heaven-despair tree given that he can't afford to let it starve thus, he left the forest and went to the nearby village.
He needs to keep low as much as possible and avoid getting caught, considering he isn't powerful and doesn't have a powerful background. Good thing he doesn't have a guardian who follows him so, he can easily do all the acts he wants no matter how corrupt they are.

It was a peaceful and calm village, with serene air and breathtaking beauty, with many houses and people living in harmony. Bai Long saw some kids playing outside who looked happy and innocent.
Alas, quite the misfortune but it's the very law of nature for the strong to hunt the weaker. Hunger drives one forward be it literal hunger or metaphorical hunger for power, status, or ego.
