"I don’t know. It has been numb." Sikong Yanya laughed loudly. She had long forgotten when she last felt guilty.
Maybe it was the time when her subordinates killed the entire family who dared to challenge her majesty? Maybe it was the last time she killed the little fox because it disobeyed her, or maybe it was the last time she put the sharp knife on her cousin’s neck?
Or perhaps it was the first time when she was forced to swallow her tears and raise her hand to kill her uncle, who betrayed her?
"Everyone has a past, but that’s just it—it’s in the past. You can learn from it, but you can’t change it. But you can make a change today."
"We cannot change the past, but we can change our attitude towards it. Uproot guilt and plant forgiveness. Tear out arrogance and seed humility."
(By—Maya Angeluo)
"In the past, you had no power and nothing. You’ve done everything to reach this point. Now that you have the power to control your own fate, why don’t you change your attitude towards the world?"
"If you need to do every mean to reach your goals, why don’t you try every mean to achieve the best of the best?" Shenlian Yingyue tilted her head.
"What do you mean?" Sikong Yanya was stunned.
"You may have fed the poison or some spell to your subordinates to make them willing to serve you. You also used the forbidden spells to force the beasts to serve you. What do you think will happen when those spells are gone?" She asked.
"They’ll betray me!" Sikong Yanya sneered. They will not hesitate to come back and bite her.
"Then, why don’t you consider being a little kind to them? Who knows? They may feel your kindness, and their hearts may change. And if they don’t change, just let it be. Since doing too many bad things brings you nightmares, you should be a little kind. At least, don’t treat everyone as your tool." Shenlian Yingyue chewed an emerald grape and gave her advice.
"Do you mean to let me be kind to them and use them to achieve my goal? Isn’t this more despicable than being mean to them and using them?" Sikong Yanya fixed her eyes on Shenlian Yingyue’s face.
"They need your power to be their shelter, and they need you to be their protection shield so that as long as you’re here and as long as they serve you well, they will live a good life with countless resources to practice."
"And you need them to serve you. You need their power to accomplish your goals. The difference is that you may earn the loyalty of some of them without even relying on spells. Also, no one had to suffer." She put her face on her chin.
"Trust me, you’ll feel better when you’re surrounded by loyal people who appreciate you ’as you’, not your fame, your power, or what you have."
"You’ll feel much better when you receive their sincerity. Needless to say, it’s based on what type of people you’re dealing with. If they’re good to you, you better treat them with kindness. And if they don’t deserve your affection, you can slap them out of your life or use your mean."
"I don’t disagree that you used the forbidden spell on your subordinates to let them obey you and prevent them from betraying you. But I’m totally disagreeing with your method of torturing the beasts to serve you." Shenlian Yingyue stood up and flew in the air.
Sikong Yanya listened to her and was stunned.
