Chapter 414: Chapter 414 Sisterly Conflict

Long, long ago, there was a wealthy merchant. He possessed countless riches, had numerous wives and concubines, and even built an enormous mansion to enjoy his luxury life.

However, the merchant could never have dreamed that one day a horrific tragedy would occur. His mansion was engulfed in a raging inferno; his wives, his concubines, his whole family of more than fifty people all laid dead in pools of blood.

A small concubine of the merchant looked at the corpses littered on the ground. She gazed at the scene of blood flowing like a river, then at her hands covered in fresh blood, and the knife in her hand. She was bewildered by what had happened, utterly dazed.

The mansion was burning more vigorously, and the intense heat kept closing in, but the concubine seemed oblivious to it, standing still in a stupor.

"Well done. Those damn men deserve a harsh lesson," a woman appeared, seemingly taking pleasure in the sight of the panicked concubine.

The concubine couldn’t help but ask, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

The woman replied, "I am Qian Ying, a member of the Shennv Xuanhui. I am here to help women like you who are oppressed by men. I will not only help you take revenge but also transform your life. Join Shennv Xuanhui, and you will never again have to cater to the whims of these disgusting men."

The concubine, perplexed, said, "What do you mean? What is Shennv Xuanhui? Did... did you do all this?"

Qian Ying gave a sinister smile, "No, you did it yourself. I just helped a little."

"You bastard! What have you done?" The concubine accused loudly, but Qian Ying seemed nonchalant. "I heard your deep-seated hatred toward every person here. I know you’ve been oppressed here, too afraid to voice your anger because you lacked power. So, I gave you the might for revenge."

Hearing these words, the concubine was stunned. She looked around at the horrendous scene. Under the roaring fire, the mansion started to collapse.

"Yes, I hate them. I wish to leave this place immediately." Once she finished her sentence, the concubine glared at Qian Ying with resentful eyes, gritting her teeth, "But, I never intended to murder them! What have you done to me? Why am I covered in blood? I didn’t do all this!"

Qian Ying frowned, "Oh no, I thought I had found a strong-willed woman with the same conviction as mine. Turns out, you’re weak. You’re not qualified to join Shennv Xuanhui." Finishing her words, Qian Ying scoffed, her face turning cold.

Soon Qian Ying took control of the concubine again, forcing her to walk towards the flames. If they did not share the same path, there was no point in keeping her around.

"Fourth Sister, stop." A cold voice sounded, giving Qian Ying a jolt. As she looked back, she saw Qian Ye standing there, looking displeased.

Immediately, Qian Ying adopted a respectful demeanor, "Second Elder Sister, I am busy. Let’s talk later if there is something."

Unsatisfied, Qian Ye responded, "Fourth Sister, stop meddling. Don’t force others into unwanted changes. And what you’ve done is too outrageous, release your control over her."

"Alright, alright. I’ll do as you say." Qian Ying promptly released her control over the concubine. When the concubine regained consciousness, she felt dizzy, and the next moment, after being hit by Qian Ye’s magic, she fainted.

Qian Ying shrugged, "It’s over now. Let’s go."

"Just like that? You have made a mess here, Fourth Sister, and you expect to just walk away?" Disdain was evident on Qian Ye’s face. "Fourth Sister, do you realize the kind of trouble you are stirring up could bring us repercussions?"

Qian Ying showed disdain, "So what? Who on earth could be our opposition?"

Qian Ye shook her head, "There is always someone better. Derive a lesson from that, Fourth Sister."

"Although I may not be worth mentioning, don’t we have you and Big Sister in Shennv Xuanhui? With you two, we can realize our ideals. We seek justice for all women in the world who are treated unfairly and bullied. We will make these disgusting men pay." Qian Ying was quite assertive as she spoke, behaving as though she hadn’t done anything wrong.

Qian Ye sighed, "Indeed, this is the purpose of Shennv Xuanhui. But you misunderstood, Fourth Sister. Making these disgusting men pay doesn’t mean taking their lives or causing their families to suffer. How are you any different from those who bully the weak? You’re even more brutal than them."

"That’s incorrect! I didn’t bully the weak. Those people deemed themselves mighty, taking advantage of their perceived invulnerability to suppress others. If they didn’t bully others, why would I retaliate? In the end, they brought it upon themselves." Adhering to this belief, Qian Ying’s respect for Qian Ye had vanished.

Qian Ye argued her point, "Just because a bad person does wrong doesn’t mean we can act as judge and executioner, even to the point of taking his life. If we take this power over life and death upon ourselves, how are we different from those bad people? You’re not seeking justice for the weak; you’re just flaunting your power to control others’ lives and deaths."

The piercing criticism made Qian Ying very angry, but she couldn’t say anything in return.

"Okay, okay, Second Elder Sister, you’re right. I will change, okay?" Finished saying this, Qian Ying turned to leave, not wanting to spend another moment with Qian Ye.

However, Qian Ye could tell Qian Ying didn’t intend to truly repent and would likely repeat her mistakes. So she said, "No good, Fourth Sister. I do not trust your current state. I need to seal your supernatural powers. You need to spend some time meditating."

Hearing this, Qian Ying immediately panicked, "What? Seal my supernatural power? Even though I respect you as my Second Elder Sister, don’t go too far!"

"I’m sorry, Fourth Sister. I cannot sit idly and watch you make the same mistakes." Qian Ye was serious, which terrified Qian Ying.

Just then, a stern voice echoed in both of their minds, "Halt, Qian Ye. Even if Fourth Sister is mistaken, this punishment is too severe."

On hearing the voice, Qian Ye’s face darkened, while Qian Ying was overjoyed, "Thank you, Big Sister. I realize my mistake."

"Alright, you may leave. And remember not to cause any more trouble, or else not only Qian Ye, I won’t let you off either." Big Sister’s words felt like a pardon to Qian Ying, and she immediately bolted from the spot. Only Qian Ye remained behind, her face still filled with disapproval.

"Qian Ye, I know you’re upset. Despite her mistakes, Qian Ying is still our dear sister. As sisters, we absolutely shouldn’t harm each other, remember the promise we made."

"Okay, let’s listen to you, Big Sister." Seeing how things had turned out, Qian Ye had nothing else to say, and she could only shake her head with a bitter smile.
