I, the mortal, come from the great world of Xuanhuang

"We have the same goal, so there's no need to waste time chatting here. Just do what you need to do. I'll do my method, and you do yours. As long as we don't bother each other, that's fine. If we do bother each other, then we'll each rely on our own abilities. We'll see who's more capable. Whoever is more capable will win and gain the upper hand. If one is weaker, then they'll have to figure out their own way."

Fang Yu's words were clear to the monk, but the monk simply shook his head.

"You shouldn't have come here."

"Whether I come here or not is none of your business. I'm here for my own reasons. I can do whatever I want and I won't do whatever I don't want. What I'm doing now is saving the entire Kunlun Realm. Don't you want the Kunlun Realm to be saved? Are you one of those guys? If so, then I won't say anything more. If not, then you can just watch quietly. If you're willing to help, that would be great. I know you're willing to help. If you weren't willing to help, you wouldn't have come here to advise me on what to do. But why should I listen to you? Why should I listen to you? We have no relationship. If we have to talk about a relationship, there's only one thing: we both want to save the Kunlun Realm. That's our only relationship. Nothing else."

"However, you should be well aware that saving the Kunlun Realm isn't just a matter between the two of us. We two can't save the Kunlun Realm. The price, the effort, the time, and a whole host of other things required to save it are countless. The two of us alone can't do it. The entire Kunlun Realm has been in decline for so many years—ten thousand years! Ten thousand years! Do you know how the Kunlun Realm has fared in these ten thousand years? You don't know, because you haven't lived to be ten thousand years old. Naturally, you don't know. You've only listened to that old bald monk. As for that old bald monk, he's long dead, or you could say he's not dead. Whether he's dead or not is actually irrelevant. It's better he's dead than not." "Fine, it doesn't really matter to me anymore. Let him do whatever he wants, it's none of my business. I just need to do things my way. If he wants to stop me, then I can only say he's overthinking it. I will absolutely not allow him to obstruct my plans. I think you know what my plans are, so there's no need to say more. You can't stop me from doing what I'm going to do, and neither can that old bald monk, because he simply doesn't have the ability to stop me anymore. The only way to stop me is for you to try, but do you have that ability? You don't. You want to stop me? You simply don't have the ability or the skill. Under these circumstances, what can you use to stop me?"

"So you can't stop me at all. Go back where you came from and stop bothering me. If you keep bothering me, I won't be speaking to you so calmly. If it weren't for that old bald monk's sake, I would never speak to you calmly. And that's true for me too, isn't it? Speaking to you calmly is of no benefit to me. You could say that if it weren't for the sake of Kunlun Realm and for that old bald monk's sake, I would never speak to you calmly. Besides, I think you should go see your daughter. If you don't see your daughter..." Who knows what your daughter might do? She's currently the ruler of the entire Kunlun Realm, practically the most powerful being, and she could rise even higher at any moment, if only she could survive that final tribulation. But how easy is it to overcome that final tribulation? Giving her this thing might help her successfully pass that tribulation, but in doing so, she might lose all love and affection for the rest of her life. If she chooses this... If that's the case, then naturally I have no objection. If your daughter doesn't want to choose this path, then I also have no objection. Let her go through this final hurdle according to her method. If she overcomes this final tribulation, she can become a deity; if she doesn't, then she'll only have death as her path. It's not that I'm cold-blooded or heartless, but that's just the reality. That's life; I can't change it, I can't stop it. You should understand this clearly. I'm not saying this to criticize you, but you should understand this clearly. This isn't my saying, but you must understand. If you don't understand, then there's nothing I can do. I can only say that things in this world are predetermined. The path your daughter has chosen is her own choice; no one forced her, but some people did try to force her. The main thing is that your daughter insists on choosing this path. There's nothing we can do; she insists on choosing this path, and no one can stop her. It's something we can't control, not even me, no one can control her, right? So you don't need to say anything more here. Saying more here is useless because the choice your daughter is making will cause her a lifetime of suffering. There was no other way. This was the only way to help my brother recover quickly; there was no other way. This was all part of your plan, so why are you pretending to be good people? Why do you insist on playing the good guys? In the end, only the two little ones suffer. They've suffered beyond measure, tormented to the point of unbearable pain by you, yet you still won't let them go. You insist they're the saviors of the world, that they can save the entire world. I just don't understand why you think that way. How could you think that way? I just don't understand why you insist on thinking that two children can save the world. They're just children! They're not even adults yet! No, your daughter is an adult, but my brother isn't even an adult yet. Under these circumstances, you insist they can save the world. I just don't understand what you're thinking! Have you lost your minds? I seriously suspect your heads got squeezed in a door. If your heads weren't squeezed in a door, how could you think like this? This is... What I'm worried about. What you need to do now is obediently follow your plans, not torture these two little ones. You clearly have your own methods, yet you insist on torturing them, thinking they can save the world. I just don't understand why you think that way, why you insist these two little ones can save the world. Can't you see the pain and suffering they've endured over the years? Or are you blind to it, or do you think everything you're doing is right, that you're making them stronger? Is that what you're thinking? Yes, that's the only way you can be so self-righteous, believing they can save the world, save the entire Kunlun Realm, save the entire universe. I don't understand why you think that way. You insist on placing such an important responsibility on these two little ones. Don't you know how much pain these two little ones have endured? Don't you know how much responsibility these two little ones need to bear? You know, you know all of this, yet you still do it this way. Why? I really don't understand.”

"This is the holy monk's will, and it is their own choice; we cannot change it."

The monk sighed and said what he should say.

"It's their own choice, their own choice—to choose such a painful path, such a painful life. They know perfectly well how painful their lives will be, yet they still choose this painful path. Did they lose their minds? Okay, I know what you're thinking, and I know what they're thinking, but as the eldest brother, I don't agree with what they're doing. As their elder brother, I don't agree with what they're doing either, because it's meaningless and worthless. I think you know very well what the consequences of their actions will be. They will both live in pain for the rest of their lives, which is not a good thing for them. I know you don't want them to do this, and I don't want them to do this either, but there's nothing we can do. They insist on doing it, and no one can stop them."

"This path is an extremely painful one, a path that no one can choose. They originally had a choice, but for the sake of the entire Kunlun Realm, they chose the most painful path. This path is extremely painful; once you step onto it, there is no turning back. Once you step onto it, you will be immersed in pain for the rest of your life. And this pain is boundless, unchangeable, and unchangeable by anyone, not even me, not even that monk. We cannot change this path, we have no way to change this path. This is a path that cannot be changed at all, and I hope you can be prepared, prepared for the death of these two little ones. This is a last resort, no one can do anything about it. I can't do anything about it, you can't do anything about it, no one can do anything about it. This is a path that was already chosen long ago, and no one can change it."

"I think you understand everything I've said, so I don't need to say anything more. They chose this path long ago, and since they've already chosen it, I won't say anything more. I just hope they follow their own path. If they fail, their future will be bleak. Of course, their future was never bright to begin with, so it's naturally bleak. I really don't want them to continue down this dark path, but they insist on going ahead anyway. This is something I never expected. I never imagined they would choose such a path. If they had even the slightest choice, I wouldn't have let them choose this path, because it's an extremely painful one for them. Really, it's absolutely painful for them; there's nothing more painful than this. It's an incredibly painful path."

"But since they've made their choice, there's not much I can say. I'll do my best to help them, but how far they go depends on their luck. I can't change that, and I can't do anything to make them feel better. It's their destiny, their fate, and I hope they understand that. But do they understand? They don't. They think they're saving the world, but saving the world doesn't have to be done in such a painful way. This painful method doesn't do them any good. In fact, it's completely useless. I don't want them to suffer like this, but they've chosen this painful path anyway."

"Master, tell me the truth, can you really bear it? I feel you can't bear it at all, right? You've never had the heart to, but you had no choice because the pain you endured was no less than theirs. I truly admire you for that. To be honest, I truly admire you because under normal circumstances, no one could endure it, but you did. To be honest, I truly admire you, I really admire you so much. No one admires you more than I do. Although there are people who are more capable than you, I have to admire the choice you made. The pain you endured was immense, which is truly admirable, incredibly admirable. Even I have to admire the choice you made."

"Your current achievements are truly admirable. To be honest, you are a very admirable person, almost a god, since you are now considered a god, though according to your rules, you should be a Buddha. However, your Buddha-nature is not yet very strong. You are more focused on gaining the support of the Buddhist realm to save the entire world, to save the entire Kunlun Realm. I understand this very well, and it's unavoidable. The Kunlun Realm is currently too weak, pitifully weak. But there's nothing we can do, because the Kunlun Realm was once too powerful, instilling fear and making those people feel powerless against it. So they joined forces and destroyed the Kunlun Realm." (End of Chapter)
