“I have already left the gap.” Song Xi shook her head slightly. Seeing that the gap looked very weak, she paused and said, “Forget about me.”
Kongxi laughed, but the laughter was extremely bitter. "I never knew you could be so heartless towards me, towards Kongxi Gate. Is there really no chance at all?"
"Continuing to drag this out will do no good for anyone."
"It's not good for Aoqian, is it? Is he that important to you? You're willing to sacrifice so much for him, why can't you turn around and look at me? Am I not even worth you turning around once?"
I never imagined I would put myself in such an awkward position to ask anyone for help.
"People should always look forward. You are an enlightened person, so you naturally understand this principle. Even if I look back, we are no longer who we used to be, so why bother?"
Song Xiwei's resolute decision completely aggravated the gap, amplifying the pain in her wound.
"The fact that Kongximen didn't participate in the encirclement operation this time is because I'm giving Aoqian one last chance out of respect for you."
The voice in the gap was stiff, "But if there's a next time, I'll take action."
“Then let’s make a move.” Song Xiwei met Kongxia’s eyes and smiled, “Anyway, this isn’t the first time you’ve made a move against him, so why make it sound like you’re showing great mercy?”
"I hope you won't interfere when I fight him." Her smile stung his eyes, but it didn't reach her eyes; only a chilling coldness remained.
“I’m afraid that’s impossible. First, I’m not a disciple of the Void Gate, so you have no right to demand anything of me. Second, I’m his subordinate, and it’s perfectly legitimate for a subordinate to protect his master. If you really intend to attack Aoqian, I will stand up and fight to the death!” Song Xiwei wasn’t making threats, but stating the facts.
Song Xiwei's heart, secretly churning with a piercing sense of unease, was pierced by Ao Qian's sincere loyalty.
They even used the phrase "swear to die".
Kongxi had no doubt about her words, because he knew very well that she was never one to make wild pronouncements.
What hurts more than a wound is the helpless pain of a heart turned cold after extreme disappointment.
There's no going back.
At this moment, it's so clear: they really can't go back.
“I raised you, and even before you were born, I knew you would be my love tribulation. I don’t understand, what do I lack compared to Aoqian? What makes me not worthy of you turning back for me even once, even just this once? What do I lack compared to that brat who’s still wet behind the ears!”
"If you insist on asking me a few questions, then it is this: you watched me grow up, set an example for me, and made me believe that you were my faith, the right path that I could firmly believe in. But in fact, you are two-faced and still do not think you have done anything wrong, and you have never even offered a sincere apology."
Song Xiwei made no attempt to hide her disappointment at the gap in her words.
"On the contrary, he was the one whom all of you prophesied from the beginning. You said he was utterly wicked and that after he turned evil, he would bring untold suffering to all living beings in the six realms. You said he was a huge threat and that we should get rid of him. I thought you were genuinely asking me to reform him, so I did. But despite being burdened with deep hatred, he still accepted my reformation and gradually walked towards the light."
At this point, Song Xiwei chuckled and said, "You once represented light, faith, and justice in my world, but you have been indulging yourself in darkness. Aoqian, on the other hand, has always been mired in darkness, but after I helped him up, he was willing to walk towards the light. The difference between you is that one is willing to succumb to evil, while the other is willing to believe in goodness and walk towards the light."
Kongxi retorted, "Don't you think it's too early to say these things now? He's evil and dark at heart. Don't be fooled by his appearance. If you choose to walk with him, you'll be dragged into darkness sooner or later."
