Who Among Us Has the Right to Revenge?

Another illustration of Taixuzi, a minor character who appears only briefly in The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber. The story reaches an unusual moment when a murderous monk and the true mastermind behind a series of killings arrange what is essentially a martial-arts tournament, promising that the winner may execute the captured killer. The protagonist—already regarded as the strongest fighter in Mongol-ruled China—manages to save his father. But instead of insisting on his innocence, his father unexpectedly admits that he really did kill those people, and that their families have every right to seek revenge. Taixuzi, a Taoist who had originally come to take part in the contest, is shaken by this. His response is simple: those present who have also taken lives are in no position to pretend that vengeance makes them righteous. For a character who appears only once, it is a surprisingly memorable interruption of the usual wuxia logic of revenge.

A wandering battle-worn daoist stands alone in an old mountain temple courtyard. He has a long beard, a lean body, a weathered face, long black hair mixed with gray, tied in a loose daoist topknot, with a few stray strands blowing in the wind. He wears layered dark gray and muted blue Chinese fantasy daoist robes, slightly worn fabric, short outer robe over practical inner martial clothes, cloth belt, black bracers, leg wraps, and simple boots. The scene captures the exact instant he snaps his own sword in half with inner force. He grips the sword hilt and lower half firmly in one hand, while the fingers of his other hand press against the blade. The blade is breaking at that exact moment: the metal is visibly splitting, the upper half of the sword is flying away from the lower half, and small fragments are bursting outward from the breaking point. The two halves must be clearly separating from each other in midair. His posture is steady and controlled, not swinging the weapon, not attacking. His expression is calm, heavy, and reflective, as if he is deliberately destroying his own sword to renounce revenge. Focus on the moment of breakage, the separated sword halves, the snapping force, and the restrained emotion. Background: old stone courtyard, temple pillars, distant pale mountains, drifting autumn leaves, quiet empty atmosphere, no other people. Important: show the sword breaking into two clearly separate pieces at that moment. Do not show a chipped blade, a cracked but connected blade, or a normal damaged sword. Do not show a glowing magic sword.
