Tu Xiao'an had been a man before becoming a snake, giving him a life experience others found impossible to comprehend. His understanding of good and evil was consequently different.
'Are all humans good? Are all demons evil?'
'From a human's perspective, perhaps. But from a demon's perspective, do those creatures that have yet to cultivate into demons deserve to be served up as human delicacies?'
'When they do cultivate and become demons, there's nothing wrong with them eating humans in turn.'
'The weak are prey for the strong. Might makes right.'
'This Fish Demon Giant Snake wasn't strong enough to avoid being caught. If it died, it died. It could only accept its fate of being eaten.'
'Humans have a common saying: "I'll give you a quick death."'
However, the death this Fish Demon Giant Snake was currently experiencing was anything but quick. It was being horribly tortured.
