Douluo: Wuhun Tianjing, Opening VS Qiandaoliu

Chapter 61 Self-knowledge
……

"How do you know she would take advantage of someone's misfortune?" Qian Renxue asked puzzledly.

"Still so sure?"

"Of course it's because..." Nangong Yi paused.

"She and I are of the same character."

It’s better for him to keep his mouth shut about other people’s family affairs.

"Are you the same as her?" Qian Renxue's face was full of disbelief.

"Then why don't you just kill Tang San?"

"Because I have no grudge against him." Nangong Yi shrugged.

"He hasn't offended me, and he hasn't done anything yet, so why should I do anything to him?"

"You can't just say, 'I know he's going to be a jerk in the future, so I've decided to enforce justice and get rid of this evil for the people, right?'"

"Tang San is just a little kid now, an orphan who has no parents. Do you want me to attack such a kid?"

"You think I'm you?"

Qian Renxue's expression froze.

"My that..."

"Stop, you don't have to explain to me." Nangong Yi interrupted.

"I am not interested in your struggle for power. Whether this continent will be unified or divided in the future is none of my business. Unification is not necessarily a good thing, and division is not necessarily a bad thing."

"I know that the overall image of the Spirit Hall is still barely positive, but I know very well that absolute power will breed absolute corruption."

"If the Spirit Hall really unified the continent, without the pressure from the two empires and the major sects, the entire continent would become a one-man show for the Spirit Hall. What would happen then?"

"Why did the Spirit Hall forcibly collect money from the two empires and then distribute it to these low-level spirit masters? Isn't it to win over the hearts of the people?"

"But if the Spirit Hall gains absolute control over the civilians and no longer needs these so-called popular support, will this money still be distributed?"

"..."

Qian Renxue fell into silence.

After so many years of intrigue, she still has some self-awareness about these things.

Who would bother to do something that has no benefit?
"You say that the nobles of the two empires are corrupt and oppress the common people, but why can they oppress the common people? Why do those common people accept this oppression? Are they lowly?" Nangong Yi asked.

"Because the nobles control the army, they have absolute violence."

"The same is true for the Spirit Hall and the Spirit Masters. Moreover, the gap between Spirit Masters and ordinary people is even greater. If the civilians are really determined to start a collective riot against the soldiers in armor of the two empires, even if they fail, they can at least cause losses to the nobles."

"But what about the soul masters? A soul skill of a Titled Douluo can wipe out dozens, hundreds, even thousands, or even tens of thousands of people. Seeing that kind of scene and that kind of gap, will they still dare to resist?"

"People are afraid. Those who don't know how to be afraid are stupid. When the gap is too big, people can't raise the heart to resist, just like humans are afraid of natural disasters, fear of God, the so-called destiny."

"If soul masters, a minority group with absolute military power, become the leadership, absolute strength plus absolute power..."

"I can't even imagine what your continent will become in the future."

"At that time, civilians were still people?"

"A world where soul masters replace the nobles as the leadership class is nothing more than taking the vast majority of people from one hell into another."

"Soul masters are also human beings, and humans are selfish. When they have the ability and opportunity, their desires cannot be satisfied."

"According to you, the Spirit Hall's desire to unify the continent... is wrong?" Qian Renxue said with a complicated expression.

She wanted to refute Nangong Yi, but she couldn't. Because she knew that what this guy said would definitely happen!

"There's nothing right or wrong about this kind of thing. It's destined to happen anyway." Nangong Yi said.

"Whether the Spirit Hall takes action or not, oppression and exploitation between people will always exist. If you don't exploit, the nobles will also exploit. If the nobles don't exploit, there will be others, and they will even oppress themselves."

These things are unavoidable. Human beings are just such a race, and most of the suffering is man-made.

"Then what's the point of what I'm doing now?" Qian Renxue paused.

"Grandpa said that Spirit Hall's unification of the continent would bring peace, but you said it was useless. These things would exist regardless of whether I did it or not. Then I..."

"Do you think you are a glorious and upright person?" Nangong Yi asked doubtfully.

"You've been undercover and killed an entire family, and you're still so glorious and upright?"

"I..." Qian Renxue's expression froze.

"You are just doing what you want to do, don't think too much." Nangong Yi walked forward.

"No matter what you do, do it because you want to. Don't always say it's for the benefit of the people. Everyone has selfish motives. You can shout a few glorious slogans to fool others when you carry out actions to satisfy your own selfish motives. There is nothing wrong with that."

"But don't fool yourself."

“Half-hearted determination not only tortures yourself, but also accomplishes nothing.”

Nangong Yi paused, turned around, and looked at Qian Renxue, "You have to know your own virtues and recognize yourself before you can move forward."

"Otherwise, you'll get lost."

……

Two days later.

Nangong Yi spent some time teaching Xiao Wu some real kung fu. He couldn't teach the Guangcheng Immortal Sect's things as they were too dangerous. There was also a strict process for teaching the Xiantian Qiankun Gong. However, he could still teach her the Hun Tian Baojian in the Tianjing.

As a little gift to his younger brother, he taught Xiao Wu the first three levels of Hun Tian Bao Jian, Bai Yun Yan Mei Xia Dang, and Tu Kun Lun.

The white smoke, steaming and boiling, spread like miasma, blinding people's eyes and disturbing the enemy.

The rose-colored clouds are swinging, and the clouds are swirling around and spinning, swirling around to unload the force, moving a large object with a small force, and transferring the attack force.

The Kunlun Mountains cracked the earth and shattered rocks, split the mountains and caused sand, mud, rock dust, minerals and iron to explode, with astonishing destructive power.

As for the latter ones, it’s not that he is reluctant to give them up, but these three levels are enough for Xiao Wu to practice for several years.

The Hun Tian Bao Jian is very difficult. Even he, a peerless genius who practiced the Xiantian Qiankun Gong, took several years to barely practice to the ninth level. By the time he sees this little rabbit next time, she will be considered extremely talented if she can barely practice all three levels!
"You teach her, not me?"

Outside Notting.

After staying for two days, Qian Renxue was ready to leave with the team because of the great battle two days ago. News came from Tiandou City that the prince was required to return to Tiandou City immediately to avoid any danger.

However, as for Nangong Yi teaching Xiao Wu, no, Nangong Wu, the little rabbit has Nangong Yi’s surname!
Damn it! She really is my sister!

Teach kung fu to a rabbit, but not to her?
What does this mean?
"You?" Nangong Yi raised his eyebrows.

"You haven't even touched the most basic spirit master training. The Hun Tian Bao Jian requires full dedication. You? You're practicing for nothing!"

Powerful martial arts require a very high state of mind from the practitioner. The most basic thing is to be calm. Even if you want to scheme against each other, you have to wait until you have finished practicing.

How can you practice martial arts when your mind is full of so many things?
Dream on, there is everything in dreams.

The transformed soul beasts have simple minds, and have not been disturbed by the worldly world, so it is easy for them to calm down and enter a state of meditation. That's why he taught Xiao Wu this thing, and she really has the possibility of mastering it.

But Qian Renxue, when was the last time she practiced meditation?
