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

"Sigh, that's life. Forget everything else, let's make up first. As long as you're alive, many things can be saved. If you can't, it's just bad luck, nothing to blame but yourself. Don't you think that's the way it is? I think that's the truth. That's life. I hope everything goes smoothly and peacefully. That's good. Let's stop having so many problems. I really can't take it anymore. I just don't understand why so many people like to do so many things. I just don't understand. Why create trouble when there's nothing wrong? Don't you think that's the truth? I think they're just..." It's just creating trouble out of nothing, absolutely creating trouble out of nothing, completely courting death. They're utterly disregarding God's will. I just hope they can live well and stop causing so much trouble. Any more trouble won't be good for them or anyone else, at least not in my opinion. I don't know what they're thinking, but that's how I think, and I must think that way. We can't afford any more mistakes. Any more mistakes will be bad for everyone, definitely not good for me.

"As long as everything goes smoothly, there's nothing to worry about. If nothing goes smoothly, then it's bad luck. Absolutely bad luck, the worst kind of bad luck, that's what happens. It's really the worst kind of bad luck, absolutely the worst kind of bad luck. If it weren't for the worst kind of bad luck, this kind of thing would never happen. That's how I see it. If it weren't for the worst kind of bad luck, for this kind of thing to happen would be a joke, it would be impossible. I would absolutely not allow this kind of thing to happen again."

"If something like this happens again, the consequences would be unimaginable. Well, how should I put it? Let nature take its course. As long as something like this doesn't happen, then let nature take its course. If things don't go naturally, then it just means the taste isn't very good and the situation isn't good either. Just do it my way."

"Do whatever you want, do whatever you want. It's not a good thing for me, after all. As long as it's not a good thing, do whatever you want. I won't care, I'm too lazy to ask, really too lazy to care, too lazy to ask. There's absolutely no need to care about these things. Is caring about these things useful? Caring about these things is completely useless. It's utterly useless. If it were even slightly useful, we wouldn't be in this mess. Don't you think that's the truth? I think that's the truth."

"What's the use of saying more to you? Is it even slightly useful? Everything you've done is wrong; not a single thing you've done is right. Is there even one right thing in all of this?"

"Even if there's nothing right, I haven't done anything wrong. You insist on causing me trouble. Aren't you just asking for trouble? You insist on causing me trouble. Don't you think that's too cruel? I think you're incredibly cruel. This cruelty knows no bounds. I feel you're truly beyond cruelty. I don't even know how to describe your behavior. Your behavior is just extremely bad. I don't know what to say about you. Can't you just behave yourselves? With your status and position, you can do whatever you want."

"Just stop bothering me. I know you want to save the world, to save this continent, but the prerequisite is that you have the strength. If you don't have that strength, you're just courting death, self-destruction. You have nothing else, you're nothing at all. Don't you understand? You should understand. You absolutely must understand. If you don't understand, it's simply impossible. If you don't understand, you're just courting death, absolutely courting death. There's absolutely no way out, not even the slightest way out. If there were even the slightest way out, things wouldn't be like this. Alas, life is so tragic, life is so helpless. There's nothing I can do, nothing anyone can do. Who can do anything? Nobody can do anything. Anyway, I'm the only person in this world who has absolutely no way out."

"If you want to save the world, if you want to save this continent, then you must devote everything to diligent cultivation. Do what you are supposed to do; that is what you should be doing. If you don't, then you are truly courting death, utterly courting death, with absolutely no chance of survival. This is the truth, this is the reality, this is what you must do. If you don't do it, then you are not far from death; you must understand this. If you don't want to die, then obediently follow my instructions. As long as you obediently follow my instructions, then your chances of survival are very high; if you don't obediently follow what I say, then you are not far from death. I am telling the truth, and what I said is factual. I hope you can understand, and I hope you can comprehend it. Don't try to be clever anymore; being clever is useless, and trying to be clever will only make things worse." Being clever is a recipe for disaster; there's absolutely no way out. You must understand this, you absolutely must be clear about it. If you don't, then you're really not far from death. I'm not trying to harm you; I'm just telling you the absolute truth. It's not a lie; I'm telling you something good, something purely good. Only I can tell you this. If anyone else tells you, they're not far from death either. I'm telling you this because I'm so kind-hearted. If it weren't for my kindness, you might never hear this in your lives. So you must listen carefully to what I'm saying, without missing a single detail, otherwise, you really are not far from death. "Not far from death" doesn't mean I want to harm you; I just want to tell you a fact, a pure fact.

“If you don’t want to listen, then there’s nothing I can do. You can go and find your own death. You are perfectly free to seek your own demise, and I won’t interfere. I think you certainly won’t seek your own death, because nobody wants to die, and I don’t want to die either. I’m a very cowardly person. I’m definitely not a good person. I’m a cowardly person, and I hope you can understand that, I hope you can comprehend that, I hope you can know that, and I hope you can understand that. Don’t think I’m some kind of good person or a good thing.”

"This is not a good thing, not a good thing. There is absolutely no such thing as a good person. If there is such a thing, then death is not far away. I can tell you this. I really can tell you this. I can tell you completely."

"I hope you can understand this. I just hope you can understand this. If you don't understand, then you are really not far from death."

“You are all smart people, you won’t do anything stupid, and you shouldn’t even think about doing those stupid things.”

"If you do such stupid things, you'll be close to death. I'm telling the truth. There's nothing false about what I've said. I hope you can understand. If you don't understand, then just pretend I didn't say anything, just pretend I never mentioned it. I won't talk about these things anymore. These things are not good for me or for you."

"I have a lot of things to do, and they are very complicated. There are some things that I can't say, but I have to tell you. If I don't tell you, I'm afraid you will be deceived forever."

"This is not a good thing for you, and I don't want you to be bullied forever. This is not a good thing, and it won't turn out well. I can assure you of that. I can guarantee you that." "If you don't believe me, then pretend I didn't say anything. If you do believe me, then you must believe me, you must believe me."

“You absolutely cannot disbelieve me. If you do not believe me, you are not far from death. This is the truth, and I hope you can understand it.”

"I'm not trying to scare you. I'm just telling you a fact, a truth, a pure truth, a truth without any falsehood. If you don't think what I'm saying is true, then you can figure it out yourselves, but only if you're lucky enough to survive. If you're not lucky enough to survive, then figuring it out won't help. This is the truth, absolutely no falsehood, absolutely no falsehood, I can assure you. I've made the truth very clear, and I hope you can understand it at least a little. If you don't understand, then just pretend I never said it. If you can understand, that would be the best."

“We understand what you’re saying, and we understand what you mean, but you must guarantee us adequate security.”

"I really can't guarantee that you will be safe enough. I can't guarantee that, and I can't make any promises to you. I can't do that, and I'm not capable of doing it. I hope you understand."

"If I had such great power, I would have saved the world long ago. But unfortunately, I don't have that kind of power. To put it bluntly, you're overthinking it. I could never do such a thing. Such a thing doesn't belong to me, nor can it belong to anyone. You need to understand this, and you need to be clear about it."

"You have such great abilities, while my abilities are actually very small, not great at all. You need to understand what you need to do, instead of thinking that I can help you. I can't help you, and you must understand this. Don't think that I can help you; I really can't."

"If I could help you, I would have already done so. If I can't help you, then no matter how much you say, it's useless. I just can't help you. Sigh, life is full of helplessness."

"It is filled with these things. If it weren't, I would have solved all the problems long ago. But unfortunately, I don't have that ability yet. I really don't have that ability. If only I had that ability, but unfortunately, I don't have it. I have absolutely no ability. If I had that ability, I would have solved all the difficult problems and all the issues long ago, and then I could have directly obtained immortality. But now it's obviously impossible. There's absolutely no possibility, not even the slightest possibility."

"Under these circumstances, what am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do? I have absolutely no idea what to do. I have absolutely no idea what to do. If there were even the slightest way, it would be a good thing. Unfortunately, I don't have any. I have absolutely no way. I just hope that everything can go smoothly, that everything can be resolved, and that everything can return to the state I expect. Really, to be honest, I really hope that this situation will come to pass."

"If this hadn't happened, it would have been really bad, really, oh, it's so painful, so incredibly painful, you know? I never imagined something like this would happen. If I had known beforehand, I absolutely wouldn't have allowed it to happen. This will really affect my situation, it will really affect everything I had before. If I had known, I would rather die than do this, really. Whether you believe it or not, I believe it. Whether you agree or not, you have to agree. You have no choice. If you want to live, if you want to live, then do as I say. If you want to die, then pretend I never said anything and you can die right now. This is the truth, this is a reminder, this is a warning. You can think I'm lying to you, or you can say I'm threatening you."

"There are absolutely no problems with any of these. I can assure you, there are no problems at all. I just hope you can understand and not worry about anything else." (End of Chapter)
