Unusual Fate Records

Chapter 272.002. Happiness is in the Present Moment.

Sometimes, Fu Xun would ponder what exactly a divine word was, that it could absorb human emotions and exert power beyond common sense.

Clearly, emotions are so insignificant to humans. Every day, every place, joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness are generated. Positive and negative emotions are like an endless flood, which can be released at any time as long as a sluice gate is found.

In terms of cost, the cheapest product of humankind is emotion.

The endless stream of words, vast as the sea of ​​stars, are like garbage fish, recklessly swallowing and spitting out the remnants of emotions.

What does a world filled with pronouncements truly bring to humanity?

Having witnessed the struggles inflicted by fate, life seems all the more hopeless.

He was lost in thought when suddenly a hand landed on his shoulder.

Jin Ziyue moved closer to him and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Fu Xun composed himself and said, as if talking to himself, "I'm wondering, what is the meaning of the existence of destiny words... to control the fate of mankind, to strengthen themselves, but in the end? Everything has an end, right? From their perspective, what is their end?"

"Controlling the fate of all living beings? In the eyes of humankind, that might be considered a deity," Jin Ziyue replied leisurely.

"The legendary omniscient and omnipotent being..." Fu Xun thought for a moment. If there really was such a decree that could control the fate of everyone in the world, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a god.

However, a new question arises: can it control its own destiny?
“Ants cannot imagine the perspective of an elephant; we have no way of verifying it and can only speculate,” Jin Ziyue said.

Fu Xun revealed a smug smile.

I'm really not reconciled.

Like ants, everyone, including the Fate Masters, Jin Ziyue and himself, were busy with the Fate Words and at their beck and call.

After a person has lived a full life, their body dies and their light goes out, and they embark on the cycle of reincarnation once more.

People will eventually die, and their death will simply dissipate into the world, but it has never been known to be destroyed.

Until one day, the world's decrees will truly envelop the entire world as population density increases dramatically.

……

"What are you two thinking about?"

The woman's voice was cheerful, carrying a small chicken leg from the kitchen, her expression full of pride.

Chen Ruolan clutched the chicken leg, the shredded chicken meat just slurped into her mouth, leaving her mouth glistening with oil.

Fu Xun was now able to face this fierce girl with a blank expression. The image of the kind and gentle older sister next door that he once knew had vanished, and he could only silently call her the "Queen of Rice".

"Reflecting on life," Jin Ziyue answered meticulously.

"I know this well!" Chen Ruolan laughed, but because she hadn't swallowed the meat in her mouth, her voice was a little muffled. She hurriedly rolled her tongue, closed her mouth, and chewed a couple more times.

Fu Xun felt that this woman's philosophy of life might be inextricably linked to eating.

"What do you two grown men have to think about about life? Isn't that something you usually say when you're flirting with girls in bars?"

After finishing the chicken leg, she still wanted more, so she put her index finger and thumb into her mouth one after the other and smacked them a few times.

Have you ever been flirted with?

Chen Ruolan laughed heartily: "I'm always the one who flirts, no one dares to flirt with me."

As she spoke, she gave Fu Xun a wink, then gently lifted Jin Ziyue's chin with her greasy hand, bringing her pretty face close and speaking softly to the unmoved Jin Ziyue: "Miss, the expression on your face is too sad, that's not good."

Fu Xun: ? ? ?
Jin Ziyue, the victim, was surprisingly calm. He glanced at Fu Xun and said, "Apart from his physical characteristics, this person can be regarded as a man at all other times."

Fu Xun greatly admired Jin Ziyue's teachings and example.

Chen Ruolan withdrew her finger, blinked, and made a peace sign at Fu Xun: "That's right, just like that!"

Her antics ruined the atmosphere, and Fu Xun touched his nose, making the afternoon conversation between the two grown men somewhat awkward.

"Ruolan," Jin Ziyue called out.

"what?"

"There's something that's on my mind," Jin Ziyue said, looking at her.

"Ok?"

“Your power,” Jin Ziyue said, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Fu Xun also listened intently. Chen Ruolan was not a Fate Master, but she possessed superhuman strength and extraordinary skills. She also seemed to be very familiar with various weapons. With her outrageous Fate Words, she was more than capable of running rampant.

However, it's easy to overlook one crucial point: how Chen Ruolan's command was triggered.

Jin Ziyue and Chen Ruolan lost contact after graduating from high school, and he had no idea what had happened in her past.

"Oh dear, not-so-good memories are to be expected." Chen Ruolan's smile faded, and her eyes seemed to reflect past scenes. She said, "It was probably when my mother passed away. I was lucky enough to escape, and when I came to my senses, I already had this strange strength. It was only later that I discovered that I also had the ability to disable other people's abilities."

She clenched her fist and patted Jin Ziyue's shoulder with her greasy hand: "As for you guys, you must have suffered a lot over the years, right? You should have asked me for help sooner. I'm tired of this corporate slave life."

She laughed heartily.

"Now is the time when we need you." Jin Ziyue and she never seemed to stand on ceremony.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Chen Ruolan puffed out her chest and confidently patted the front of her.

Steep up and down.

Fu Xun simply couldn't bear to look.

"Oh, right." Chen Ruolan seemed to remember something and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, and we haven't had any formal ceremony, so how about I give you a big hug?"

After saying that, she opened her arms and, regardless of whether Jin Ziyue was willing or not, wrapped her arms around his shoulders, pressed her body close, and leaned down passionately.

Fu Xun's expression changed repeatedly.

Jin Ziyue stood there blankly, with Chen Ruolan's head to his side. If he sniffed closely, he could almost smell the faint fragrance of her hair, her wine-red hair fluttering in front of him.

Even though it was only for a moment, the woman still squinted her eyes with enjoyment, like a mother protecting her child.

The woman's movements were light, like soft feathers covering her scarred body; yet they were also heavy, like armor protecting her weathered body and soul.

All the trauma, cruelty, and bloodshed we experienced no longer seemed so heavy.

Chen Ruolan possesses a magical quality: beneath her carefree personality lies a woman's gentleness and sensitivity; her seemingly nonsensical actions unexpectedly have a comforting power.

Fu Xun opened his mouth, his eyebrows softening slightly. This was something he really couldn't learn.

But that's alright, because this man's guard won't be lowered without a specific woman.

and--

Fu Xun's expression was somewhat jealous: Although he verbally treated this tiger girl as a man, her body must be very soft, right?
Jin Ziyue glanced at Fu Xun and knew what he was thinking.

He looked at Chen Ruolan, who was squinting, and asked, "Are you done wiping?"

"Huh? What did you say?" Chen Ruolan pulled her head away from his shoulder and asked in confusion.

Jin Ziyue's tone remained somber: "Weren't you wiping your hands with my clothes?"

"Oh, you mean this?" Chen Ruolan chuckled, patted his shoulder, and said, "Nothing like that."

“I’m not angry,” Jin Ziyue said. “I also used your clothes to wipe the oil off my chin.”

"Hahaha, we're even." Chen Ruolan showed no embarrassment. She turned her head and saw Fu Xun's gloomy eyes. As if she had spotted new prey, she opened her arms wide, full of joy, and said, "Little Xun, do you want to hug me too?"

"Get out of here!"

Fu Xun was completely disillusioned with this woman.
