Legend of the Great Saint-Chapter 1641 - By Force

Chapter 1641 - By Force

The Qilin, with its Hovering Steps, Sympathises with the Living.

Li Qingshan originally never understood the qilin’s path of paramount benevolence. Now, he had comprehended it completely.

It supported them without trying to possess them, it did so without thinking it was superior to them and it aided them without trying to control them. That was called virtue.

TL: This is from chapter 10 of the Dao De Jing.

Nature birthed all of the living creatures, but it did not claim them to be its, placing them under its control, much less ask them for any payback, demanding all living creatures to be loyal to it. Its virtue of benevolence was omnipresent, but also utmost profound, never to be sensed by anyone. It was like everything was supposed to be like that, thus the name “nature”.
