Chapter 864 Punishment Fits the Crime
He reached his hands out. That soul did not understand why Wynter did not stop Budd like before. Instead, she allowed him to harm others?
Budd also realized this. He turned to look at Wynter. “Are you not going to stop me? Didn’t you say that if I was not going to return home, you’d make me vanish?”
“That was before,” Wynter said nonchalantly. “I am usually more understanding toward honorable people. I can let you exact your revenge, then make you vanish. But it isn’t worth it to waste all your merits on just a few puny people.”
Budd seemed to be pondering over what she said. His resentment lightened a little, and he relaxed his grip. He said with reddened eyes, “They’re not innocent.”
“I know they’re not.” Wynter looked at him. “What I’m trying to say is they are not the ones who bullied your daughter. If you kill them, you’ll be making a huge mistake.”
The soul who was under Budd’s hands immediately added, “Master is right. Budd, we were wrong. We should not have blabbed on the internet. We shouldn’t have treated you badly either. Since we’re all colleagues, please have mercy and spare me!”
Budd’s gaze darkened. “You’re not really remorseful. You’re just scared.”
“No. Budd. Trust me, I…” The soul looked more and more terrified because he was the one who had
bullied Budd the most.
Budd wanted to strangle him to death right on the spot. A person like him did not deserve to live. However, he was still thinking about what Wynter said to him.
Budd said, “I can’t find out who were the culprits who bullied my daughter. I only know that they were twisting the facts.”
“I’ll help you look into it.” Wynter handed her business card to Budd. “No matter who it was, I’ll hand them over to you and you can deal with them yourself.”
Budd looked at the business card before looking back at Wynter. “You’re the newly appointed executive CEO of the Quinnell Group?”
Wynter nodded. She said calmly, “If you believe me, you’ll return to your body first. You can’t stay out of your body for too long.
“Besides, with you being an offering here, not only the people that you hate would be punished, but Innocent people would also be dragged down.
“It’s one thing if the dragon chain lock is ruined, but if the seal has been destroyed, it would affect the dragon fortune. Somewhere, a natural disaster is happening.
“Humans are nothing when a natural disaster strikes. I’m sure you don’t want ordinary folk to suffer just because of your reckless decision, right?”

“I never wanted to harm anyone!” Budd immediately let the soul go, and his face turned pale. “I just want the truth and justice.”
Wynter looked at him. “I know. Just like you said, these people here are not innocent. When you return, if they still do not change their ways… Sothoth, come here.”
Sothoth immediately replied, “Yes.”
*These are your offerings. You can eat them whenever you want.” Wynter ignored the horror on the souls‘ faces. “There is no use letting unrepentant people live.”
Sothoth looked at Dalton. There was no response from him. Sothoth looked at Wynter once more and asked, “This isn’t appropriate, right? They just need to be taught a lesson-”
“If you don’t want to eat them, fine,” Wynter interrupted Sothoth. “My brother here is craving water dragon meat anyway.”
Sothoth was utterly speechless.
