Chapter 1364: Grievances

They were leaving the mountain of Saint Starlight Sect.

Everybody had the grievances in their hearts.

Li Wuliang and Han Bingxue felt the most of it.

They had been hoping to come and destroy the enemies once and for all with joy and excitement. They hoped that it would vent their hate and grievances in the hearts, and then hold a feast to celebrate it with fine liquor!

However, they hadn’t killed even one enemy since they stepped on the land of Saint Starlight Sect. The whole thing made them feel weird. All that should die had killed themselves. The apologies were more like threats and curses with anger.

What made it unacceptable for them was that they had been following the lead of the enemies the whole time. Even though the leaders of Saint Starlight Sect had all died, it didn’t make them feel any better. Saint Starlight Sect people might act like they died for the guilt, but everybody knew that they were merely protecting their own sect. As they all died like that, it made Ye Xiao and his people like bad guys. However, they were the ones who had been mistreated, weren’t they?

At the very least, if those people didn’t suicide, they would eventually die with the entire sect anyway. Now that they chose to die in this way, it saved the sect and the rest of the disciples, but it also disgusted Ye Xiao and his men!

It was a sure thing that Ye Xiao and his men would feel worse!

When Li Wuliang and Han Bingxue caught up with Ye Xiao, they started to complain.

“Come on, Boss. Are we really just giving up like this?” Li Wuliang was annoyed.

It was supposed to be a trip of revenge. They arrived high-soundingly, yet ended up retreating with concession. They were here to seek revenge, but the whole thing made it feel like they were bullying the entire sect.

“Everybody knows a trick or two in different ways. A great sect that has been standing high for over ten thousand years must have their own capability.” Ye Xiao blandly said, “Saint Starlight Sect has sacrificed almost all their elites for the current situation.”

“It was too easy for them. Saint Starlight Sect should be completely destroyed. What we needed was to step ahead and do it. Those people were going to die anyway. Now, they have died too easily. We actually helped them to achieve their glory and save many of their people, but it disgusted ourselves!” Han Bingxue said.

Ye Xiao shook his head and said in a deep voice, “Life is like a game of Chinese chess. It is difficult to predict everything. People could always be weak sometimes. The leaders of Saint Starlight Sect had no better plan than what they had just done. They bet we wouldn’t kill them all under that situation! Shen Chongshan died with all the leaders because he knew he would win. What they have left was a bunch of weak disciples. He was such a smart man with profound views. He was our enemy, but I do praise him!”

“It just can’t make me feel better! I feel sick!” Han Bingxue was still annoyed.

“Just let it go. I felt the same back there. I wished I could just dash and kill… But can we really push those weak men to death… If we started the fight against their best forces in the first place, it wouldn’t be a problem to wipe out those weak disciples together. However, now that they don’t even have one man that is strong enough to survive a flick of my finger. Even if we killed them all, how could we feel any better? After all, we are here to seek revenge and kill those who once hurt us in the past.”

“Even though Saint Starlight Sect was playing a scheme, they played it well and fair. We have to give in.” Ye Xiao continued, “Of course, what touched me the most is that Shen Chongshan actually killed himself too in the end.

“That was going extreme. It cut off all the possibilities of them attacking us in the short future. They became totally weak for us!

“We just couldn’t do anything to them anymore!

“They have now lost most of their forces, but they have at least saved some people to continue the sect. What they need now is a really talented disciple who can lead them back to the glory again in the future…

“In fact, they have fallen off the first league in the world to the third… They are lucky that their protection array is still activated. Otherwise, I think they are going to lose their sect sooner or later…

“At least in ten thousand years, they won’t be able to rise again.

“We have killed the people who hurt us, and their sect has been disabled. I think this is enough for an act of revenge now. I don’t see why we should push them to complete death.”

Ye Xiao looked at Li Wuliang and continued, “Don’t let it get in your heart. If you keep holding the grievance, it will make you look narrow-hearted.”

“Isn’t this what they wanted?” Li Wuliang was angry. “They have done quite much just to have this end! I hate it when somebody successfully set me up!”

“So what? They have paid a big price. Besides, they won’t be a threat to us in the coming future!” Ye Xiao said, “The key is that this world is facing a calamity. If we keep killing while disregarding others, people will turn against us… Shen Chongshan knew it, so he forced us to stop in such an extreme way.

“Think about it. We have done the revenge thousands of times more than we should expect now.”

“Everybody fights for survival under the law of nature. They sacrificed themselves to keep their young generation safe…” Ye Xiao blandly continued, “Wuliang, if they really have a talented man in the future, they will come and seek revenge upon us someday.”

“But even if they do, will we be scared?” Ye Xiao smiled. “No, we won’t. Then why do you care about sparing these young disciples so much?

“If they don’t even have a man that is brave enough to come and get on us, what could possibly influence us in the future?

“Just let it go.

“There may be troubles in the future, but we are not going to decide it. The young generations of Saint Starlight Sect will!

“To be honest, like I said, I praise what they did. I am impressed. Not everybody has the courage to make such a sacrifice. To show respect to the courage they had, we should spare them a chance.”

Ye Xiao stared at Li Wuliang and said, “Now, are you still annoyed?”

Li Wuliang embarrassedly smiled and said, “My dear sister, your wife, was right about me. I am too straightforward. I just kept being controlled by the anger and didn’t even try to think deeper in it. I just felt the grievances… You are right. As you said, we have done it. We don’t need to push it too far.”
