The fox snickered, clutching its belly and rolling around on the ground before answering,
"He's just a pig-headed fool. What kind of plan could he come up with? Dragging a bunch of demons to a three-day banquet, cursing his heart out. He'd get drunk and pass out, wake up soon after and start cursing again. After they devoured all the stuff in the cave, they all went back to their nests."
Li Tongya was taken aback, unsure whether to laugh or not. He chuckled twice, only to see the fox turn serious and speak earnestly,
"Your Li Family's roots are too righteous, too close to the common folk. It always fills me with doubt and disbelief. They're just insignificant peasants. What does it matter if these demons eat a few of them? Aren't the commoners raised just to be used? If you don't make use of them, their numbers will only grow. Eventually, they'll oppress each other, lacking land and livelihood, and they will curse and hate you... "
