Qian Renxue froze on the spot. Her gaze was fixed on Tuoba Yan.
Tuoba Yan met Qian Renxue's gaze.
In a short while, Qian Renxue had a thought, and a pair of four-winged wings appeared on her back. She tore through the void and flew towards the direction of Martial Soul City.
Tuoba Yan followed behind Qian Renxue with unease.
With the speed of a Soul Saint, it only took him half a day to travel from Heaven Dou City to Martial Soul City.
Qian Renxue entered Martial Soul City and went directly to the Elder Hall.
At this moment, she had transformed from Xue Qinghe into Qian Renxue.
When Qian Renxue came out of the Elder Hall, she looked dazed and like a walking corpse.
"cousin."
Tuoba Yan called out to Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue ignored him and continued walking forward like a walking corpse.
"cousin."
Qian Renxue still did not respond to Tuoba Yan's call.
Tuoba Yan strode up to Qian Renxue, reached out, and grasped her arms with both hands. After reverting to her female form, Qian Renxue's skin was remarkably supple. One had to admire the powerful disguise ability of the Angel Soul Bone; it could even completely mask the skin-to-skin texture between a man and a woman.
Even the texture of skin can be faked. Qian Renxue disguised herself as a man from a woman's perspective. She infiltrated the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace for twenty years as Xue Qinghe's man. Her success was indeed due to her unique abilities.
"Cousin." Tuoba Yan's voice used his mental power to penetrate directly into Qian Renxue's sea of consciousness.
Qian Renxue raised her head, her eyes flickering, her gaze fixed on Tuoba Yan. Her expression was complex.
"Was I... was I not supposed to have been born into this world?"
"Existence is its own justification. Since you were born, you were meant to be born into this world."
"But my father did… such a thing." The word "beast" could not be uttered by Qian Renxue.
Qian Xunji was Bibi Dong's teacher. He once entered the demonic path, and in order to give birth to a descendant of exceptional talent to the Angel Family, he did not hesitate to use the power of the Pope to forcibly separate Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong.
If Bibi Dong doesn't agree, then Qian Xunji will kill Yu Xiaogang.
Bibi Dong compromised for Yu Xiaogang's life.
Afterwards, Qian Xunji failed to achieve his goal, so he locked Bibi Dong in a secret room, sealed her cultivation, bound her hands and feet, and forcibly entered her body.
When Bibi Dong wanted to commit suicide, Qian Xunji threatened her with Yu Xiaogang's life, preventing her from doing so.
Then, Bibi Dong became pregnant.
She hadn't forgotten that she was Qian Xunji's student, and she didn't want the illegitimate child in her womb to come out. She wanted an abortion.
Qian Xunji then used Yu Xiaogang's life to blackmail Bibi Dong. If Bibi Dong wanted to abort her unborn child, then Qian Xunji would kill Yu Xiaogang.
And so, Qian Renxue was born.
Tuoba Yan reached out and pulled Qian Renxue into a tight embrace, comforting her, "Some people encounter things like greed for their position; wanting to make their work more comfortable; or wanting to grow a lot of crops in a field... When they have these thoughts, they have already entered the demonic path. They will delve into anything with even the slightest hope, exhausting all their efforts, including physical strength and persuasion, to achieve their goal. Even if they have prejudices against others, their actions are wrong, and their initial intentions were never meant to be. But once they have this thought, they will do everything in their power."
Qian Renxue said, "He was wrong after all."
Tuoba Yan continued to comfort him, "At first, he may not have known he was wrong; he only wanted what he wanted. After you were born, he tried his best to make amends to Bibi Dong. This is something that the Soul Master world and the Douluo Continent have all witnessed. Perhaps, he later realized that his actions were wrong. In this world, who can be without fault? If you make a mistake and can correct it, a prodigal son who returns is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold."
Qian Renxue remained silent for a moment.
During her time posing as Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire, she encountered many people who, in pursuit of greater power, a more comfortable work environment, or greater wealth, committed numerous wrongdoings. Sometimes, even when others offered explanations, they stubbornly insisted that the wrongdoings were intentional. Only later did they finally realize their mistake.
Looking back on Chihiro's life, she made mistakes, but she also corrected them in the later stages of her life.
Qian Renxue's outlook on life differs from others. If she can avoid seeing someone, she will keep her distance and let each other live peacefully.
Tuoba Yan continued, "You should also understand Bibi Dong's cold attitude towards you. Your outlook on life is like this, and so is hers. In her eyes, you should never have been born. If she could ignore you, she wouldn't even bother with you. But you are her biological daughter, not just anyone. Moreover, you and she are in the same Spirit City. She doesn't want to deal with you, but she always has to see you. Therefore, she chose to send you to infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire."
Qian Renxue suddenly understood. She understood everything. So this was the real reason why Bibi Dong had sent her out to lie low.
She slowly raised her head and asked, "Should I forgive her?"
The hardest thing for people to do is to put themselves in someone else's shoes.
When a person can put themselves in others' shoes, they possess a solid foundation for becoming a public servant. They are qualified to speak on behalf of everyone and exercise the power entrusted to them by the people.
Simply put, a person who can put themselves in someone else's shoes is a person with a conscience.
If a person doesn't even have the awareness to put themselves in others' shoes, can't think from other people's perspectives, and only thinks from their own point of view, how can they possibly have compassion for others, how can they possibly have sympathy for others, and how can they possibly have a conscience?
Of course, precisely because he only thinks from a self-centered perspective, he stubbornly believes he is right and that everything others do is fake and intentional. He feels he possesses a "conscience."
Tuoba Yan truthfully replied, "Although I don't like her, and she forced me to become Pope, I think you should still forgive her. If you look at things from her perspective, she is a pitiful woman."
yes.
Although Bibi Dong was a holy maiden of the Spirit Hall, she was trapped in the secret chamber, utterly helpless. Wasn't she pitiful enough?
Facing Pope Qian Xunji, she sighed.
Qian Renxue pondered for a moment, then suddenly understood all of Bibi Dong's coldness towards her; she understood Bibi Dong too. She paused, then asked anxiously, "Will my relationship with her always be like this?"
Tuoba Yan smiled and said, "If you want to improve our relationship, ask me for help."
Qian Renxue asked expectantly, "What's your idea?"
Tuoba Yan laughed and said, "My method requires your cooperation."
"you say."
"You may have to make some sacrifices for this."
"What sacrifice?"
"Appearance".
"Appearance?" Qian Renxue was taken aback.
"Yes, Appearance." Tuoba Yan nodded, a sly smile on his face. "I don't want to cause trouble. She forced me to take the papacy from her. Now I want to see her daughter in secret. Isn't that a reasonable condition?"
