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

"Child, don't get involved with this guy. Getting involved with him will only do you harm, not a single benefit. You can say it will bring you absolutely no good. So don't do it, because doing it will only hurt you and won't bring you any benefit. So don't do these things, okay?"

Fang Yu couldn't help but curse after hearing the old man's words, because he never expected the old man to be so shameless. He truly deserved to be called a bastard!

“I’m telling you, you old turtle bastard, how could you think like that? How could you say that? And isn’t your way of addressing him a bit inappropriate? You should call him teacher, master, or benefactor, not ‘boy’ or ‘child.’ Is that the kind of address an old turtle bastard like you should use? You’re not worthy of using that title. Everyone else can use it, but you absolutely cannot. You should know that very well. Why are you so shameless? You should have some self-respect. How can someone of your status and position be so shameless? You should have some self-respect.”

"If you continue to be so shameless, then I have no choice but to ask you to leave, to get as far away as possible, and to get the hell out of here. After all, your existence has had too much of an impact on him. Logically speaking, you shouldn't be here now. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have come here. It's because of me that I was able to force you out, you turtle bastard!"

"You bastard, why do you do so many bad things instead of good deeds? I know you'll probably say you saved the world, saved the universe, and that the universe was spared from disaster several times because of you, but don't you think saying that is utterly shameless? Absolutely shameless, utterly shameless, you know? What you're saying is shameless to the extreme, even the thickest skin in the sky might not be as thick as yours. It's utterly shameless, utterly shameless to the extreme. It's precisely because of shameless people like you that so many bastards happen, it's precisely because of shameless people like you that so many outrageous things can happen. Under these circumstances, you shouldn't exist, you know? You say I shouldn't exist, but actually, the one who shouldn't exist is you..." It's that shameless old bastard who should be here, not me. You shouldn't exist at all! Your existence only fills this world with endless tragedy and desolation, without bringing any positive impact. If you weren't here, this world would still have some hope. But if you don't get out, then this world will be completely hopeless, without even the slightest possibility. So you old bastard, you should get out of here right now! If you don't get out, then this world will only face destruction. So I hope you, you old bastard, get out of here right now and never appear in this world again! You old turtle bastard, you should get out of here right now, you know that? So please don't show up again, okay? Don't say I shouldn't be here; you're the one who should never be here.”

"Your presence has clearly affected many more people, yet you insist on blaming me for all of this. Now I understand why so many people have been causing me trouble and creating problems for me—it was all your doing, you were the one instigating it all. If it weren't for you, none of this would have happened. So you are the one who should be the least here, not me. You should leave as soon as possible and never appear in this world again. Otherwise, you old bastard will definitely do something bad, which will be detrimental to everyone. I will absolutely not allow that to happen. Under these circumstances, do you think you should stay here? You shouldn't stay here. You should get out of here as soon as possible. You shouldn't stay here, so hurry up and leave. This is not a place for you."

"And what you should do is stop showing up. If you do, it won't be good for anyone. It will only hurt everyone. So you should stay far away and never appear in front of anyone again. You should stay there quietly instead of dying here with me."

"So, of the two of us, the one who should leave is you, not me. This has nothing to do with me, not even a penny. You should leave immediately and stop showing up here. Being here only makes people think I invited you, but actually, I have nothing to do with you. I don't like you, and I would never invite you. Inviting you would have too much of an impact on me; I would never do such a thing. So, you shouldn't exist. You shouldn't stay here. Your existence only affects everyone, it affects everyone. That's the consequence of your existence. So, you should get out of here and stop showing up, right? Do you agree with what I'm saying? If you think I'm wrong, you should find a solution instead of staying here..." I'm against you. If you insist on going against me, it's not good for either of us, it's not easy for either of us, it's a bad thing, right? As long as you go against me, it's a bad thing for us. You should do something that benefits everyone, instead of wasting time with me. Wasting time with me brings no benefit whatsoever, only endless harm, endless disasters and trouble. So you should get lost. Don't appear in this world anymore, don't appear in front of anyone anymore. You should get lost, leave now, don't appear in front of anyone anymore. That would be great news for everyone. Leave now, leave immediately, leave quickly, don't appear again. If you appear again, it will be a disaster for everyone.”

"Enough, enough. You don't need to say anymore. You've said so much just to get me to leave, so I'll leave."

The old man was finally driven to the brink of collapse by Fang Yu's annoyance and decided to make a hasty retreat, no longer in the mood to stay. However, before leaving, he gave Zhang Ruochen a deep look. Only after the old man had left did Zhang Ruochen voice his doubts.

"Who exactly was that senior gentleman just now?"

"That senior's identity is quite special. You will definitely meet him in the future, and you might even entrust everything to him—your Time-Space Divine Martial Imprint. Only then could he possess his current identity, status, and everything he has. However, he is the one who changes your life. It could be said that your life was arranged by him, and his life was also arranged by you. You two were mutually dictated. Therefore, don't blame him, don't hate him, because this is simply fate, a destiny that no one can change, no one can resist. There's nothing that can be done about it." This is truly a situation beyond our control. I know you have many questions, but I hope you don't have too many. Some questions require you to explore and find the answers yourself, instead of constantly asking me. Asking me is sometimes useless, utterly useless. I will tell you what I can and should tell you, but I won't tell you what I shouldn't or can't tell you. Your other questions are none of my concern; that's all I can say. In short, some answers and some questions require you to find the answers yourself, instead of constantly asking others. What use are people anyway? Others might deceive you, right? They might betray you, they might cheat you; not everyone is a good person. They might treat you like a fool, playing with you until you become a complete and utter idiot—that's their goal, not like now, like how I'm treating you so well. To be honest, being this good to you has had a significant impact on me. I don't want to be this good to you, but I have no choice. If I weren't this good to you, it would be impossible for anyone else to be this good to you. The main reason I'm so good to you is because it's something I've always wanted to do. "It's what I should do. After all, you're my brother, my brother in name only. Whether it's true or not doesn't really matter. Whether it's true or not, you're still my brother. As long as you're my brother, I should help you with some things. I'll help where I can, and if I can't, I can't help, and there's nothing I can do, right? That's the logic, isn't it? I'll definitely help you with what I can, but there are some things I can't help with, and there's nothing I can do about it. I hope you can understand that. If you don't understand, then there's absolutely nothing I can do. Because if you don't even understand this, then what else can I say? I have no explanation left."

"There shouldn't be so many doubts now. What you should be doing is cultivating diligently, working hard to resolve the doubts in your heart, instead of asking me how to resolve them. This is your own business, it has nothing to do with me. It's something you should do yourself, it has absolutely nothing to do with me. They all want me to leave because they want to arrange your life. They think your life should be arranged by them, just like that old, rotten turtle bastard from earlier. He thinks the same way, he really does. He wants to arrange everything for you so that he can become stronger in the future, become incomparably strong, surpass his current self, and become his future self. But whether he can even exist in the future is a question, yet he still insists on doing it. You say..." Is he joking? Is he treating me like a fool? How could I allow something like this to happen? How could such a thing possibly happen? If he still thinks like that, there's only one possibility: he's a fool. That bastard is a complete scoundrel. In short, you can only believe part of what he says, never completely. If you believe it completely, then you really are a fool, I'm telling you that. If you don't believe me, then there's nothing I can do. Anyway, I've said everything I needed to say. Believe it or not, I've made everything clear to you. In short, I've taken care of everything. The rest is up to you; it has nothing to do with me. Anyway, as your Fang Yu, as your brother, this is all I can do. That's all I can do. Do whatever you want; it's none of my business anymore. Really, you and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. That's a fact, that's the truth. If you want to resolve your doubts, you should find the root of your doubts, instead of constantly asking me. What's the point of asking me again? Even if you keep asking, it's useless, because this shouldn't be my answer. You should find the answer yourself, not bother me. Bothering me is pointless, absolutely useless. You could search for ages and still not find anything wrong with me. If you insist on bothering me, then I can only say you're a complete idiot, a total idiot, a brainless idiot. Honestly, really. If you insist on causing me trouble again, I can only answer you this way: you are a complete idiot, utterly brainless. If you had even a shred of intelligence, you wouldn't have thought of such a thing. Frankly, for both you and me, this is a very bad thing. You should be thinking about how to solve these problems, not just blindly chasing the reasons behind them. You should be trying to understand why these problems exist in the first place, because they exist because of you. If it weren't for you, these problems wouldn't exist. Frankly, you are a menace, a complete and utter menace, a complete and utter menace. (End of Chapter)
