Being so belittled by Li Qiye, Peng Yingxue was certainly not convinced in her heart, but she opened her mouth to speak and was silent again.
"Since you have practiced the assassin's art." Li Qiye smiled faintly, and said: "Want to avenge your Xueying Building, can you assassinate me too?"
When Li Qiye said this, Peng Yingxue couldn't help but stay for a while.
She really hadn't thought about this issue yet. Their Snow Photo Studio was destroyed by the Jin Chu Dynasty. Therefore, she practiced hard since she was a child, and wanted to assassinate the Emperor of the Jin Chu Dynasty on the day when her skill was great, and avenge their Xue Photo Tower.
However, now Li Qiye is also a member of the Jinchu Dynasty. He holds the ancestral golden knife of the Jinchu Dynasty and is the messenger of the golden sword. He comes from the ancestral temple of the Jinchu Dynasty and represents the will of the ancestral temple of the Jinchu Dynasty.
It can even be said that his status is much higher than that of Gu Yanghuang.
In that case, wouldn't it be more valuable to assassinate Li Qiye than to assassinate Gu Yanghuang? Thinking of this, Peng Yingxue couldn't help but smiled bitterly. She really hadn't thought of going to assassinate Li Qiye.
"You save my life." In the end, Peng Yingxue could only say so.
"So, if you want to assassinate, you have to be a qualified assassin, but you are not a qualified assassin." Li Qiye smiled, shook his head gently, and slowly said: "The real assassin has his own Mission, and you, what is your mission?"
"Kill Guyang Emperor and avenge Xueyue Studio." Peng Yingxue blurted out without even thinking about it.
Li Qiye couldn't help but laughed and said, "Is this your own mission, or the mission your elders want? Perhaps, your elders were defeated in the hands of the Jinchu dynasty, fleeing like mourning dogs, and hid behind their tails. They knew that they couldn’t handle the Golden Pestle dynasty by relying on themselves in this life, so they trained you as a disciple, hoping that you could assassinate the Emperor Gu Yang in order to wash away their shame?"? "I—" Peng Yingxue said openly. , But for a long time could not speak.
Since she was a child, she shouldered the responsibility of avenging Xueying. Since she was a child, she knew that their Xueying had what happened today, and everything was bestowed by the Jinchu dynasty, so they must take revenge.
"So, all these are the actions of the mediocre, and everything is the anger of the incompetent." Li Qiye couldn't help but smiled, shook his head, and said: "You really think that if you kill Guyang Emperor, the Jinchu Dynasty will fall apart. Analyze? Do you really think that without an ancient emperor, the Jinchu dynasty will perish? This is ridiculously naive!"
Peng Yingxue was speechless for a while. She understood this truth deep down, but she didn't try to expose it. For the Jinchu dynasty, there would be a second emperor without the Guyang Emperor.
As long as the background of the Jinchu dynasty is still there, whoever becomes the emperor is the same, except that it is her mission to assassinate the Guyang Emperor. She has cultivated hard since she was a child and will one day be able to assassinate the Guyang Emperor.
"If you only practice for the assassination of Guyang Emperor, then your lifetime achievements are limited." Li Qiye lightly said, "No matter what technique you practice, it will set your upper limit. Even if it is one) The real killer does not practice to kill anyone, it is only because he wants to be a killer and achieve himself."
"And you—" As he said, Li Qiye looked at Peng Yingxue and said slowly: "You are just a poor creature living under hatred. It's just a compensation for the elders' desire to satisfy their weak and incompetent mentality. They just want to use your assassination to prove that they are not incompetent."
"Absolutely not." For Li Qiye's words so sharp and ruthless, Peng Yingxue's expression suddenly changed, and she couldn't help but deny it.
"Then what do you think it is?" Li Qiye couldn't help but smile, and said slowly: "Then what do you think is the meaning of your practice? Come and listen."
Li Qiye's rhetorical question immediately silenced Peng Yingxue, unable to answer for a long time.
Before that, she had never asked herself this way. If she said, at this moment, she asked herself, what is the purpose of her practice
In order to assassinate the Guyang Emperor and avenge the Xueyuelou! The only answer that can be given is this.
When Li Qiye exposed it like this, she couldn't help being shaken in her heart. In fact, since she was born, Xueyinglou has long ceased to exist. Everything she knew about Xueyinglou was only what her elders told her.
Since she was a child, under the guidance of her elders, she has practiced for revenge for Xueying Building, in order to make Xueying Building exuberant for a day.
"There are countless stupid people in the world, and countless incompetent ones." Li Qiye said lightly: "It is precisely because of this that all kinds of tragedies will occur. If your elders really want to avenge Xueying, it is not for you to assassinate the ancients. Yang Huang, but they stood up and fight to the end."? "Why did Xueyinglou be destroyed? It was because of decline, why did it decline? It is because of their incompetence, in their hands, that they failed to manage Xueyinglou well. In the end, the ashes were wiped out. But to this day, they are incompetent, but expecting the younger generation to raise their eyebrows, it is really vulgar." Li Qiye glanced at Peng Yingxue.
Li Qiye's words seemed to have pierced Peng Yingxue's heart with a sharp knife, and could not speak for a long time.
Li Qiye's words made her unable to find any words to refute, a question she had never had before, but today she was shaken in her heart.
"You mean, our Xueying Building was destroyed, it deserves it." In the end, Peng Yingxue had no choice but to say so.
Li Qiye couldn't help but laughed, and said, "Such words make you seem naive. Xueying Building once dominated the Southern Western Emperor. Ask yourself how many Dajiao kingdoms have been destroyed when Xueying dominated the Southern Western Emperor. , How many big clan families have been wiped out? Look at the destruction of your Snow Photo Studio today, do you feel aggrieved? Whether it is aggrieved, it is nothing more than who is the winner and who is the loser."
When these words came out, Peng Yingxue couldn't help but stayed for a while. This was indeed true. Their Snow Photo Studio had dominated the entire Nanxi Emperor back then. Of course, they were not convinced by virtue. If they were to convince others by virtue, neither would they It is possible to dominate the entire Nanxi Emperor, and it is impossible to rule this land for millions of years.
Back then, the Dajiao Jiangguo and Zongmen aristocratic families that collapsed in the hands of their Snow Photo Studio were too many. If these Dajiao Jiangguo and Zongmen aristocratic families would seek revenge from them, Snow Photo Studio would also have enemies all over the world. .
Compared with today's destruction of their Snow Photo Studio, that's the same reason.
"You said so, don't we deserve revenge." Finally, Peng Yingxue couldn't help but said.
"What is revenge?" Li Qiye glanced at Peng Yingxue, and said lightly: "Do you want revenge or your elders want revenge? If it is your elders want revenge, then they should go and let them prove themselves. Responsible for the demise of Xueying Tower!"
"If you want revenge, do you think how far you can go on this road and how much accomplishment you have?" Li Qiye smiled faintly and said, "Don't say go shoulder to shoulder with your ancestors, I'm afraid In the end, you are just a member of the general public."
Li Qiye's remarks shocked Peng Yingxue a lot, and under the stimulation of Li Qiye's remarks, she even wavered her lifelong goal.
Originally, she was practicing for the assassination of Guyang Emperor, and she existed for the revenge of Xueyuelou. Other than that, she had no distractions. Now that Li Qiye said so, she couldn't help but have a great impact on the meaning of her existence. Shaken, he couldn't help but doubt his mission.
It was as if the goal of her life was suddenly pierced by someone. In an instant, Peng Yingxue couldn't help but fall into confusion. For a while, she was a little at a loss.
If she didn't exist to assassinate Guyang Emperor and avenge Xueying Tower, then, what is the meaning of her survival, and what is the meaning of her penance? ?At this moment, Peng Yingxue couldn't help being lost, and couldn't recover for a long time.
"If not, what should I be?" After a while, Peng Yingxue recovered and couldn't help but look at Li Qiye.
Li Qiye said indifferently: "You have to ask yourself what you need. The road is long. If you just say it is for revenge, it will not support you to go on this road. If you want to go on, then You need to see your original heart, your original heart!"
Peng Yingxue couldn't answer this question, because she was educated and trained to avenge the Xueying Studio since she was a child. In order to assassinate the Guyang Emperor, she could put her life and death out of her mind.
"I, I, I..." Peng Yingxue said openly, failing to say the answer she wanted for most of the day.
Li Qiye looked at her, and finally, slowly said: "In terms of revenge, this is just a trivial matter. He asked, it will only make you go farther and farther, and it will make you stronger and stronger. The stronger the heart, the farther you will be. When you reach the top, and then lean down to look at the world, what is the hatred of the country, the hatred of the clan..."
"... It's just a hand, and between raising your hands, the great powers are wiped out, the big religions fall apart, everything is just the trivial details on your long road, this is the grand road. If you just It’s for revenge, you will only end up in a dead end, and finally drive yourself to death, even if your body is still alive, the heart of the great road is dead."
"The heart of the avenue—" Peng Yingxue couldn't help muttering.
Such words, their elders had never taught her.
For a while, she couldn't help being stunned. As Li Qiye said, he asked his heart, and went all the way. When he reached the peak, everything was under control. On that day, the Jinchu Dynasty would be destroyed. It was just a matter of raising your hands. .
One day, if you can really get there, even things like revenge and hatred will seem so calm.
One more today.
