Hello,
I have a question,
I don't quite understand what to do.
I am under Live 11 and I have a sidechain plug-in from vengeance sound and I would like to run it with a vst, for example Spire.
How should I do with the routing?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Send and return live 11

Have you googled 'sidechain in live'
If not, do so. There's a hundred and one tutorials and videos out there.

As of Live 10.1 (IIRC), sidechain support was added to third party plugins. Place the Vengeance plugin after Spire, then select the trigger source from the dropdown menu in the sidechain section of the Vengeance plug. Easy 
Always Read the Manual!

The placement of the Vengeance plugin depends on what you want to trigger the sidechain (as in, is it ducking the sound from Spire, or is it ducking another source like an audio track containing your kick drum).
PieBerger is assuming (and I'm assuming) you'll use the Vengeance plugin for that classic pumping sound, where you want the sound from Spire to drop out when something like the kick plays.
If this is correct, on your SAME track that has Spire, place the Vengeance plugin right after Spire (same track).
If needed, make sure External Sidechain is enabled within the plugin (this is required on some plugins like Fabfilter plugins).
Now on Live's GUI, for the Vengeance plugin, you will see "Sidechain" with a dropdown menu underneath. By default, it is set to "No Input." Select your input (such as the track that has your kick) and that should do it.
There are pictures on the Ableton site and as whyterabbyt wrote, there's a ton of videos demonstrating what to do.

When you say after Spire, is it in the bottom window or in the track below Spire?
You wıll put both on the same track
