Makes sense. His weapons are as wildly stubborn as he is. Who's to say they'll even like the current him?
Also, nice to see that his 'mercy' has a baseline. Promises were made and he must have respected them enough back in the day that led to this outcome. He's still acting in a very 'jianghu' mindset. Only this bald guy who was so reprehensible as to dig out someone's grave and steal from a corpse was given severe punishment. 'Severe' but the fact that he was given a choice kinda showed that MC WAS willing to go so far as possibly killing the son and the son's master if it came down to it.
K seems easy to fool but I don't think he's stupid. And it's probably a breath of fresh air for these 'animals' that they're being treated as individuals with actual intellect instead of freaks of nature.
Lol here I am talking serious in what would many equate to pornhwa. Folks, I ain't even joking when I say the plot is actually plotting.
