"And what about the people you've hurt?" What Song Xiwei was referring to should be clear to everyone.
His face darkened as he looked at her, remaining silent for a long time.
"So, you can be so merciful as to let go of past grievances, simply because you weren't the one who was hurt. Don't you feel any guilt towards those you've hurt, those who died because of you?"
Song Xiwei asked a series of questions, not giving the opportunity to evade the matter.
Kongxi looked at Song Xiwei with some disappointment, "Do you want to take revenge on me for those who died?"
"Shouldn't you do something about what you've done?" Song Xiwei didn't stop there, nor did she relax her efforts just because she had a chance to show mercy and let Aoqian go.
She promised Aoqian that she would help him reclaim everything that belonged to him, although most of her intention was to keep Aoqian calm and allow him to experience the realities of life, so that in the long run he would lose his violent tendencies and prevent him from turning evil.
But now it seems that someone else has turned evil.
The more time you spend with him, the more you understand him, and the more you compare him, the more you realize that although Aoqian is often capricious and moody, he is much more lovable.
“I raised you, and now you’re questioning me for the sake of some outsider, and expecting me to atone for my past mistakes?” Kongxi looked at Song Xiwei in disbelief.
His eyes held pain, resentment, and above all, heartache.
That was someone he cared about, a girl he cherished. Now, after hearing his heartfelt confession, she was unmoved. Instead, she questioned him for the sake of others and even stood against him.
“If possible, I hope you can apologize to Aoqian. As for whether he forgives you or not, that’s another matter. But you were wrong, and that’s that.” Song Xiwei did not back down because of the question in the gap. Instead, she became even more determined to fight for Aoqian.
Although she is Kongxi, she was ultimately raised by Kongxi, and Kongxi's actions are indirectly related to her.
“Heh…” Kongxi laughed, then shook his head, his voice a little hoarse, “Aren’t you afraid of angering me, and me changing my mind and killing him?”
"So, you never intended to let him go, right?"
There was no reply during the gap, so Song Xiwei added, "Persuading me to go back with you is just a temporary measure, but you will still kill Aoqian to silence him. You are a ruthless person who will go to extremes. I think I understand you now."
"Yes, eliminating all threats and leaving no room for future troubles is indeed my style of doing things."
The gap was acknowledged.
Song Xiwei felt as if she had been struck hard in the chest, a dull ache lingering in her chest. "Fine, since you're going to kill him no matter what, then there's nothing more to say to you."
"Where are you going!" He saw Song Xiwei turn around and leave, and his expression changed slightly.
"I won't go back with you."
Song Xiwei had already taken one step out.
"It's not up to you."
Just as he was about to make a move, he was suddenly blocked by a force.
It was none other than Venerable Penglai.
Song Xiwei stepped aside, and the duel between the two great masters, Venerable Penglai and Kongxi, officially began.
Song Xi stepped back a little, and Ye Shuning suddenly appeared, "So? What do you think of my proposal?"
"Then I'll give you a suggestion too, you should think about it. Should I tell you to shut up, or should you get out of here yourself?" Song Xiwei wouldn't lay a hand on Wanwan, and she didn't believe Ye Shuning had a way to escape from the gap on her own.
There is no one but Venerable Penglai who can temporarily hold off the gap.
"Your wishful thinking may be in vain. Venerable Penglai has spent most of his power on that demoness Wanwan. How could he possibly be a match for Kongji? Don't believe me? Just wait and see."
With a strange laugh from Ye Shuning, as expected, Venerable Penglai was forced into retreat.
