Chapter 308 Do You Understand Me? (Revised)
This was the first time Yang Podi had called Qian Renxue "Xue'er" under normal circumstances, and even Qian Renxue had never seen Yang Podi with such a serious expression.
Qian Renxue asked in surprise, "Why would you ask me such a question? The martial spirit inherited by my Martial Spirit Empire is the Six-Winged Angel. As the last inheritor of the Angel God, I represent the angels."
Yang Podi shook his head slightly: "In your eyes, is this what angels are like? Merely the inheritance of bloodline and martial spirit?"
Qian Renxue was indeed exceptionally intelligent, worthy of her extraordinary talent of having innate soul power at level twenty. She immediately understood Yang Podi's meaning: "Are you saying that, given my current situation, I simply cannot inherit the Angel God?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but sigh: "Becoming a god is not that simple. Think about how the first angel god forged his angelic position and how he became a god."
Qian Renxue pondered for a while before speaking: "The first Angel God used his holy sword a long, long time ago to sweep away the darkness and evil on the Douluo Continent, gaining the faith of the people and thus achieving the position of Angel God, becoming a place of faith for the Soul Master world."
Yang Podi nodded slightly: "That's true, but you don't understand enough, not at all. Even if you were to become a god in your current state, you would still be the weakest among all the gods, and you would still be at risk of falling. Moreover, without the power of angels and the power of faith, you will never reach the heights of the first generation of angel gods."
Qian Renxue couldn't help but murmur, "The First Angel God? What are you trying to say? What do you know?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but sigh: "The first Angel God's attainment of godhood was definitely not just a matter of talent and strength. Since he was able to sweep away the darkness and evil in the world, he must have killed countless enemies. He would never show any mercy to any enemy, and he would never be as arrogant as you are now. You should know that when you really encounter an enemy, you must be brave and decisive and eliminate them completely."
"The first Angel God possessed extremely strong killing power, even to the point of being ruthless. Otherwise, there wouldn't be an Angel Judgment among the Angel God's inherited divine skills. Although you have now learned this inherited soul skill, how much of it have you truly experienced? And how much of its power can you unleash?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue simply pondered silently without uttering a sound.
After an unknown amount of time, Qian Renxue spoke again: "Is this what you think makes me inferior to Ye Lingling? Is this what you think makes me a failure?"
Yang Podi looked at Qian Renxue's beautiful face and said, "No, your situation and Lingling's are different, and your ways of doing things are absolutely different. Lingling is just a healing soul master. She doesn't have as much responsibility as you, nor does she have as high a status as you."
"But you are different. Every action you take has far-reaching consequences. The Title Douluos around you are risking their lives for you, and everyone in the Spirit Empire regards you as their faith. But what have you done for them? When you are cultivating and fighting, have you ever considered that your every move is related to the life and death of all of them?"
Qian Renxue replied somewhat indifferently, "So what? They have dedicated themselves to my Angel Family and enjoy the glory brought by my Angel Family, so naturally they must bear the responsibility."
Yang Podi sighed again: "You're completely wrong. In your eyes, you admire strength, but have you ever thought about those whose strength can't keep up with yours? You've always hated Bibi Dong, but whether it's the elders of the Spirit Hall, the seven new sects she's gathered, or even the countless Soul Master followers of the Spirit Hall, these people are willing to risk their lives for Bibi Dong, to gamble their entire families and sects for her. Do you think you could do that?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's face darkened considerably: "Are you saying I'm inferior to Bibi Dong? I'm only weaker than her right now?"
Looking at Qian Renxue's stubborn face, Yang Podi shook his head again: "You're wrong again. Bibi Dong didn't start out with this much strength. When she first ascended to the position of Pope, she wasn't even a Title Douluo. But she single-handedly built the Spirit Empire into a power that surpassed the three upper sects over the past few decades, and it's even close to unifying the world. Can you do that?"
"No, if I were in her position, I could do it too, or even better," Qian Renxue quickly interrupted Yang Podi.
"Where does your blind confidence come from? You can observe Bibi Dong and understand how much she sacrificed to gain her current strength and status." Yang Podi almost wanted to give Qian Renxue a good whack.
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's face flushed with anger. She had always been resentful and filled with hatred towards Bibi Dong.
For some unknown reason, Yang Podi suddenly felt a little uneasy: "What kind of person do you think I am? How did I come to have the strength I have today? And how well do you really know me?"
Qian Renxue thought about it carefully: "I think you are an exceptionally hardworking person, with great methods and a lot of good opportunities."
Yang Podi shook his head: "That's just the simplest one. Do you know how much I've schemed for the rise of my family and for my own strength from beginning to end? How many people have I schemed against?"
"Just like when I traded the Phoenix Sunflower for the Vast Ocean Universe Cover with you, do you know how much of a bargain I got? Do you know what the Vast Ocean Universe Cover actually does? Do you know how much of a boost one Vast Ocean Universe Cover provides to us?"
"Do you know how much I've endured to achieve what my family has today? How many scornful looks and humiliations I've suffered? Can you even imagine?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue fell silent. The Po Clan's remarkable growth and achievements over the years could not have been achieved without sacrifice. Qian Renxue had always suspected that Yang Podi was the true leader of the Po Clan, and only after hearing this did she begin to understand.
In particular, Yang Podi's questions just now stunned Qian Renxue. From beginning to end, apart from what she had seen and heard and her recent interactions, she seemed to know nothing about the man in front of her. She even felt that she could not see through him at all, like a bottomless swamp.
Qian Renxue had traded with Yang Podi many times, and could be said to have witnessed Yang Podi's rise. She also single-handedly pushed the Po and Yu clans to the Tianxing Academy they are today. Qian Renxue may have gained a lot from each transaction, but she never thought about how much she had actually given up.
It has been revised.
