"If it's to exorcise demons and combat the Netherworld's evil spirits, we naturally won't shy away from the responsibility," Lin Xuance said, stroking his beard. "However, when it comes to intervening in mortal wars, especially when the opponent hasn't committed any obvious heinous crimes, we should refrain from directly intervening."
"Huh?" Xiao Jie was taken aback. "Aren't immortals supposed to be above worldly affairs, free from all taboos?"
"Transcendence does not mean recklessness," Miao Fa Yuanjun, Su Zhiqing, gently explained. "All things in the world have cause and effect. Excessive slaughter on the battlefield, especially when the targets are mortal soldiers, will inevitably accumulate bad karma, harming the harmony of the heavens. Even as immortals, if we wantonly kill, we too will be entangled in karma, obstructing our path and even attracting a heavenly tribulation."
Xiao Jie was speechless. "So, the three of you mean to... just watch?"
