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

"I believe you've heard what I told him clearly. So you should know that even becoming a god doesn't guarantee immortality. Most gods only live for 129,600 years, which is just one eon. However, with your talent, becoming a God-King or even a God-Emperor is possible. Whether you can become a Celestial Venerable or one of the Heavens depends on your luck. But I hope that one day you can become a Celestial Venerable, one of the most powerful beings in this world. Only then will this world have even the slightest hope. If you can't even achieve that, then expecting this world to have hope is pure fantasy, utterly unrealistic, completely unrealistic. I'm not joking; that's the truth. I don't mean to deceive you, and I won't, because it's pointless and meaningless to me. Under these circumstances, I naturally won't bother deceiving you; it's unnecessary, completely unnecessary."

"I rarely do things that are unnecessary, because if it's not worth it, why should I do it? It's a waste of time, space, energy, and everything. In that case, I might as well just sleep soundly, don't you think? I might as well just find a place to sleep, and maybe I can even find two young ladies to sleep with me. How wonderful, how pleasant, how great is that?"

"Isn't that right? Isn't that the truth? And that's exactly the truth. To become an immortal being, one must first have immense power, but in reality, very few people can actually achieve that; it's practically impossible. Under such circumstances, how can one talk about helping others? Let alone saving the world. Saving the world is an extremely difficult task. The price to pay for saving the world is far beyond your imagination and understanding, far beyond your expectations. You should know and experience this, instead of asking me here, because even if you ask me here, it's meaningless, because I don't know how to answer you. Everyone's answer, everyone's understanding, and everyone's insights are different. All I can do is tell you what to do as best I can. As for what will happen after you do it, what the consequences will be, and what you will gain, that all depends on your own luck."

"If you're lucky, you'll naturally get good results; if you're unlucky, you'll naturally suffer bad ones. After all, everything has two sides, and each side is different. I think you should understand this clearly, so I don't need to elaborate. These are things you should understand; in your understanding, these are all essential. If you don't understand, it won't benefit anyone in the slightest. You must understand these things; not understanding is unacceptable. If you don't understand, it won't be good for anyone. You should understand this, Your Majesty. So, don't ask me why I'm doing this, because I have to do it. I wouldn't do it this way..." "Doing it won't work either. If I don't do it, the loss will be too great, truly too great. So I hope you can understand this, and I hope you can comprehend this. Stop thinking about anything else. What you need to do now is seize the time to get through your upcoming tribulation. If you get through it, you will be able to successfully break through to the realm of gods. If you can't get through it, then there is only death ahead. I'm not joking to scare you; this is the truth. If you can't get through it, no one will scare you, and I won't scare you either. What I've said is all true, not an attempt to intimidate you or ask you to do anything for me."

“I don’t have that much free time, and I don’t have that much leisure time. I’m really tired, so I have to do some things, and these are things I have to do. Those tragedies, those tragedies that shouldn’t exist, I have to make them disappear forever. Really, I have to make them disappear forever. If they don’t disappear, it will make me very sad, it will make me extremely sad, it will make me extremely sad. I’m not joking, I’m just stating a fact. I’m really stating a fact, I’m not joking.”

"If we don't change those things, the consequences will be unpredictable. I'm not trying to scare you, I'm just stating a fact. I hope you understand this. If you don't, then there's nothing I can do, I really have no other choice. If I had even a sliver of hope, if I had any certainty, I wouldn't be saying all this. It's precisely because I have no way, no certainty, that I'm saying all this. If I had a way, I would be doing it now, instead of sitting here rambling on and on. Why am I saying all this nonsense? It's to seek that glimmer of hope. What is that glimmer of hope? Actually, I don't know either. I just feel that I must seek that glimmer of hope. If I don't, the consequences will be unpredictable. I must seek that glimmer of hope. As for the reason, it's naturally because I want to live. I must live. I can't not live. If I don't live, the consequences will be too severe. So I must live."

"You can think I'm being cowardly and afraid of death. Really, I am. I am cowardly and afraid of death. There's no doubt about it, and there's no need to think about it. It's something that doesn't need to be considered. I'm not someone who isn't afraid of death. On the contrary, I want to live. I must live. I really want to live, you know? I know that if I don't live, the consequences will be unpredictable, so I must live. No matter the cost, I must live, because I know that if I don't live, even more people will die. So even for those who want to live, I must live. I'm not just living for myself; I'm living for everyone, not just for myself. Because if I die, the consequences will be unpredictable. I think you understand this very well, so I don't need to say more."

"If I die, the consequences will be unpredictable. There are things only I know, and I cannot tell you. If I did, many people would die, and the predetermined ending would remain unchanged. They have already decided to alter their original plan. Under these circumstances, knowing the subsequent outcome is simply a pipe dream. Even I would find it difficult to change everything. And I do not intend to change anything. I only want to change what I want to change, because only in this way can I obtain what I desire. I hope you understand this principle and do not think you can become a savior on your own. Really, don't think about becoming a savior. Saviors have never existed, or rather, they always have. A savior is someone who saves the world. If they don't save the world, then..." It's incredibly difficult to become a savior. Under these circumstances, how can one become a savior? The only way is to become stronger, stronger, stronger—stronger still, beyond imagination. Only by becoming incredibly powerful can one become a true savior. Only with such strength can one save the world, save the entire universe. Only then can one be considered a savior. Otherwise, if you stand there with your hands on your hips and declare, "I am the savior," who would believe you? Even if you were an empress, no one would believe you; they would just think you'd gone mad from cultivating. Because a savior is only a savior if they save the world. If they can't save the world, they can never be called a savior; they can only be one among those trying to save the world, and a sacrifice at that. Under these circumstances, what's there to say? There's absolutely nothing to say. There's no need to say anything at all. Don't you agree? Don't you think so?

"Perhaps you will disagree with what I'm saying, but aren't my words the truth? Shouldn't it be this way? What I'm saying is all true, all as it should be, so don't think you can change these things. These are not things you can change; they are all destined. I don't want to change so many things, but I have no choice; I must change them because those things make me feel sad, upset, and miserable. In this situation, if I don't change, it will be a bad thing for myself. In this situation, I must change, and I can only change these things. If I don't change, I will be miserable, and what I hate most is being miserable. It will make my heart ache, and when my heart aches, I will be sad, and I might even cry. In this situation, what do you think I should do? Naturally, I should make preparations in advance to prevent those miserable things from happening, to never appear in front of me, and even if they do happen, I should be able to cope. So you should understand what I'm saying. If you don't understand, then it's okay; it just means you don't have the brain. Alas, this is truly a very painful thing; the dignified Empress doesn't even have the brain."

"I hope you can become strong enough, and I hope you can become invincible. Really, I really hope you can achieve these two things. Only by achieving these two things can you get what you want. What do you want? You want to save this world, save this universe. This is something everyone knows and understands. I know it too, and I understand it. I can help you, really, I really want to help you. But actually, you don't seem to need my help, or rather, you don't want my help at all. In this situation, what can I do? I can only force myself to help, because I know that if I don't help, the consequences will be unpredictable. To be honest, I really don't want to help, but I have no choice. If I don't help, I will feel bad, especially after things happen, it will make me feel even worse. In this situation, do you think I should help or not? Of course I should help, I have to help. If I don't help, I will feel bad, I will be sad, like I just said, I will even cry. In this situation, what can I do? Of course, I have no choice."

"I hope you can understand this, and I hope you can comprehend this. Don't think about anything else. I just hope you can understand this. Don't think about anything else, because other things have nothing to do with you. What you want to do, what you must do, you should do well. Don't think about anything else, because it has no meaning, no value. To be honest, it really has no value."

"You just need to do what you're supposed to do, and don't think about anything else. I've made it so clear, do you understand?"

"If you don't understand, then there's nothing I can do. That's all I can say. Saying anything more would easily break the rules, and if I do, it won't be me who suffers, but you, because you'll know things you shouldn't know. There are things you shouldn't know, things you truly cannot know. These things are of no benefit or value to you. I hope you understand what I'm saying. Whether you ultimately understand depends on your own abilities; I can't control that, and I have no way to control it. This is true. I won't lie to you anymore, and I could never lie to you, because it wouldn't benefit me. What good would lying to you do? Would I send you to bed? That's impossible, absolutely impossible. To be honest, everything I've said is true, whether you believe it or not. Really, well, I've made myself perfectly clear. I hope you understand." (End of Chapter)
