King of Assassins-Chapter 170 - 162: Good and Evil Cannot Coexist Since Ancient Times

Chapter 170: Chapter 162: Good and Evil Cannot Coexist Since Ancient Times

Gao Xuan wasn’t surprised at all by Luojia’s resurrection.

No one in the entire cosmos knew Luojia better than he did.

Before Luojia was resurrected, Gao Xuan had already activated the Dimensional Silver Mirror.

Everything seemed unchanged in front of him, but it was actually the mirror space transformed by the Dimensional Silver Mirror. This was a completely enclosed space.

Only by breaking the Dimensional Silver Mirror could Luojia leave here.

Resurrected Luojia also noticed the change in the space. She looked around with great interest: "The mirror space transformed by the Dimensional Silver Mirror, only the winner can leave? Not bad, not bad."

"Good eye," Gao Xuan praised.

Luojia was stunningly beautiful. Among all the women he knew, Luojia was undoubtedly the most beautiful. She had an inherent disregard for life and death, good and evil, as if nothing could constrain her.

Regardless of appearance or demeanor, Luojia was an extraordinary individual of the highest caliber. Even though they were mortal enemies, it didn’t stop Gao Xuan from appreciating her.

In some ways, Gao Xuan and Luojia were very similar.

Both were exceptionally confident, unwavering in their will, ruthless in their actions, and not bound by any existing rules.

The only difference was that their paths differed.

Luojia wasn’t in a hurry to act, and she smiled, saying: "I heard the Yan Family spent a fortune buying the Dimensional Silver Mirror, so I guessed it might be for you."

She said with some surprise: "However, you didn’t release a nuclear bomb at the same time, which surprised me a bit."

Gao Xuan also smiled: "The power of a nuclear bomb is uncontrollable and might destroy the Dimensional Silver Mirror. I could be affected too. I don’t like uncontrollable power."

"You’re only eighteen, yet more cautious than an eighty-year-old."

Luojia nodded and said: "Uncontrollable power is a bit troublesome."

She paused and then said: "If it were me, I would have set up a remote control device on myself. The moment I died, the nuclear bomb would detonate, and we would all perish together."

Luojia chuckled and asked: "You wouldn’t really do that, would you?"

"Excellent."

Gao Xuan didn’t hide it: "That’s exactly what I did. If I’m killed, everyone goes together."

Gao Xuan spoke nonchalantly, but Little White Pig got anxious. Its beady eyes darted around, unable to think of any safe escape plan.

Earlier, Gao Xuan hadn’t touched it, so it pretended to be dead and kept quiet. But once Luojia was resurrected, it perked up. However, Gao Xuan’s words made it a bit anxious.

Little White Pig urgently said to Luojia: "Master, this guy is so vicious. What should we do?"

"You’re such a scaredy-cat pig."

Luojia leisurely said: "I’m not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"

Little White Pig put on a loyal demeanor: "My life or death doesn’t matter, I worry for my master."

Luojia pinched Little White Pig’s long snout: "Don’t embarrass me, shut up."

Little White Pig felt its snout was about to be crushed, flailing its hooves in pain.

Its comical appearance was extremely funny.

Unfortunately, Yun Qingshang’s expression remained indifferent, not a trace of laughter.

Bai Yutang was full of worries, with no mood to laugh.

Only Gao Xuan was supportive: "Sister, your pet looks fun and tasty."

"It’s definitely fun, but I haven’t tried to see if it’s tasty yet."

Luojia smiled and said: "Once I deal with you all, I’ll roast this pig for a taste."

"Sorry, sister, this time you’re not going back."

Gao Xuan said seriously: "There’s no time to eat this pig either. Let it accompany you to die together."

Gao Xuan’s words were intimate, but they were vicious.

Luojia wasn’t angry. She curiously asked, "I’ve always been puzzled, we’ve never met before and have no interactions. Why do you have such animosity towards me?"

Before Gao Xuan could speak, Luojia continued: "Don’t say it’s about punishing evil and promoting good, hahaha..."

Luojia couldn’t help but laugh, "I’m not an evil person. I just want to pave a new path for humanity."

Gao Xuan also laughed: "Sister, describing yourself as so great isn’t good."

Luojia wasn’t angry, she slowly said: "When I was in elementary school, the school had strict rules, not allowing students to leave school without permission. I really wanted to play outside, but every time I asked for leave, it was always refused.

"Until one time, a classmate took me over the wall to escape school, then I understood one thing, all the rules in this world could be bypassed."

Luojia said seriously: "The powers that be control all resources, decadent and corrupt. Human society has lost all vitality. In the long run, humanity is bound to perish.

"If the right path is blocked, I’ll lead people to forge a new one, overthrow the elite, and gift humanity a beautiful new world."

Gao Xuan mocked, "In order to create a beautiful new world, you prey on the weaker underclass, using their flesh and blood to pave your way to success."

"To change the heavens and the earth, bloodshed and sacrifice are necessary."

Luojia said calmly, "These are costs that must be paid."

She shook her head slightly and said, "We are the same kind of people, so why do you need to put on such an act."

Gao Xuan also shook his head, "I am not like you. You kill living beings to satisfy your selfish desires. I uphold the right path, establish a foundation for the people, and bring eternal peace."

"Hahaha..."

Luojia laughed disdainfully, "The right path? What right path, and who defines it?"

She restrained her smile, "In this world, only success needs no definition. Because the successful can define everything."

Gao Xuan said, "Following ancient human morals, aligning with the people’s hearts, and having compassion for all beings, this is the right path."

"The masses are ignorant. They can only be led, not make choices."

Luojia said, "For instance, if a thousand people are trapped in the mountains and there’s fire all around, only a strong leader can unite them and find a way out of the flames.

If you let a thousand people choose on their own, everyone will die. Because no one trusts another, each person’s choice turns out to be the worst one."

Luojia sneered, "So-called morality and the people’s heart were only needed in ancient times. Because back then, the underclass was the majority. When they united, they had the power to overthrow everything above.

"Now it’s different. Even if all the lower classes unite, they can’t match the elite. To overthrow the order and rebuild the world, you must find an Evil God to cooperate with. The underclass can only offer their flesh and blood as sacrifices for the new world."

Gao Xuan frowned slightly, "Sacrificing the weak to fulfill oneself, is this your path?"

"In the dark cosmos, any weak life can only become food or a sacrifice. This wasn’t my decision; it’s decided by the cosmos."

Luojia retorted, "Isn’t it worth sacrificing ten percent of the weak to establish a new world and usher in a new era for humanity?"

Gao Xuan was silent for a moment before saying, "Your logic is rigorous, I can’t refute it."

Indeed, Luojia is not simply doing evil. She has her own logic, her great goals, and a strong will with extraordinary execution ability.

Unfortunately, facts proved that Luojia did not succeed. On the contrary, she traveled further and further down the path of the Evil God.

No matter what Luojia’s original intention was, she ultimately chose an evil path. No matter how bright this path seems, it will only lead to the abyss.

There are some truths and words in the world that can’t be refuted. However, this doesn’t mean they are right.

Seeing Gao Xuan deep in thought, Luojia advised, "This is the first time I’ve shared my ambitions and grand aspirations with an outsider. That’s because we are the same kind. Although you killed me once, I can forgive you."

She sighed, "This road is too lonely, bearing too much responsibility. I hope you can walk alongside me."

Luojia added, "In this cosmos with billions of humans, all are mundane people. Doesn’t it need extraordinary talents like you and I to lead all humanity?

"Sympathy for the weak is good, but one cannot lose direction because of sympathy. Throughout human history, it’s always been geniuses and elites who led the era forward."

Luojia sincerely extended her fair hand, "Come, let’s start a new era for humanity together. Our names will be engraved on the monument of the era’s achievements, and together with humanity, we will be forever immortal."

This speech was not a mind-bewitching secret technique, but rather from Luojia’s heart. Precisely because of this, it carried a stirring charm, making it almost irresistible.

Gao Xuan looked at Luojia’s outstretched hand, long and clean, with smooth and delicate skin, nails not painted with any polish.

He liked this simple and clean style, and also liked this beautiful fair hand. He even had an impulse to just take it.

Then, the troubles that plagued him would be easily resolved. In a short time, he could even use the power of the Blood God Association to quickly grow and strengthen.

Working together with Luojia, perhaps there really is a chance to achieve great success. To lead Luojia on the right path.

In terms of ability, Luojia is even stronger than him. As Luojia said, evil is just a shortcut to success, not her innate nature.

Gao Xuan could understand Luojia, and he believed that everything Luojia said was true.

Just as Luojia said, they were the same kind, very similar to each other.

To the extent that Gao Xuan felt meeting Luojia was like encountering a kindred spirit.

Luojia noticed Gao Xuan’s hesitation, "You are such an extraordinary and unparalleled powerhouse, do not be bound by tiresome human morality."

Gao Xuan sighed, "I really wish to agree, but unfortunately..."

He paused for a moment, then seriously said, "Unfortunately, since ancient times, good and evil cannot coexist!"

Gao Xuan’s words were calm and unwavering, yet deeply firm and determined.

Luojia immediately understood that Gao Xuan could never change his mind. She couldn’t help but sigh, "What a pity, what a pity."

Her bright blue eyes surged with deep regret; she truly felt regretful.

However, at this point, there was no room for maneuver between both parties.

Luojia’s eyes shone with divine light, "Since our paths diverge, I must ask you to die."
