Super God: There's a mischievous Xi in my head
Chapter 40 Even if you let go, give it a try
"The universe is vast and boundless. Once upon a time, there existed a glorious civilization called 'Deno'..."
"Under the leadership of a supreme military commander known as 'O,' Denor successfully developed the universe's first War God-level god-slaying combat unit."
"This combat unit is endowed with terrifying power capable of cleaving planets in two, truly deserving the title of 'God of War'..."
"After that, the Deno civilization engaged in an arms race that lasted for a thousand years, constantly pursuing the ultimate in power."
Cang Yu's tone was calm to the point of indifference, as if he were recounting a past event he had witnessed firsthand.
Rose listened quietly without interrupting.
"As Denor's power grew, a war broke out under the leadership of 'O' due to conflicts over resources and civilizational ideals. They also secretly developed a super gene with enormous potential..."
At this point, Cang Yu paused, his gaze gently shifting to Qiangwei.
Rose noticed the change in his gaze, turned her head with a hint of confusion, and met his eyes.
She had initially thought Cang Yu was recounting his own past, but his expression at that moment made her realize that things were not as she had imagined.
That super gene was named—Time-Space Rose.
Upon hearing this name, Rose's pupils suddenly contracted.
But Cang Yu didn't explain; he just continued talking.
"Ultimately, the war spiraled completely out of control. To end this catastrophe, the chief god of the Lieyang civilization—the Sun God—detonated the star of the Deno star system, and the entire star system was destroyed as a result."
"In retaliation, 'Ao' commanded the God of War of Nostar to throw the God-Slaying Axe, splitting the Sun Star in two."
And Denuo, too, was reduced to ruins in that catastrophe. The War God of Denuo, consumed by remorse and grief, took his own life.
"O is also deeply mired in guilt, and will live the rest of his life for one obsession—to resurrect Deno."
"Ultimately, he led the remaining members of his people on a journey through the vast stars, searching tirelessly in the boundless universe..."
"After a long and arduous search, they have finally arrived on a blue planet... After a thousand years of planning, the project is about to begin."
"He activated the 'Time-Space Rose,' awaiting the arrival of that final moment..."
After Cang Yu finished speaking, the mountaintop fell into a long silence.
The night breeze seemed to have stopped flowing, with only the faint lights of the distant city flickering silently.
Rose sat there, stunned, as if the blood in her body had frozen at that moment.
Her mind was buzzing, and every word felt like a hammer blow to her soul.
Deno...Ao...Time and Space Rose...
These unfamiliar words, at this moment, were like a key, suddenly unlocking all the confusion in her life.
His father's perpetually unfathomable, solemn gaze; the Super God Academy's technological prowess that surpassed Earth's; his own innate yet incompatible time-space genes...
She seemed to have considered a possibility, and her voice trembled slightly as she spoke:
"So... I am the 'Time-Space Rose,' right?"
Cang Yu did not answer, but simply stared at her in silence.
However, his silent gaze had already given her the most definite answer.
A bitter smile appeared on Rose's face, a smile that was both a mockery of her past self and a pity for her present fate:
"So, to him, I was nothing more than a tool to achieve his ambitions?"
Her emotions surged like a dam breaking, and her voice trembled uncontrollably.
"No wonder...who would develop real feelings for a tool? Heh...no wonder, I never knew who my mother was."
She seemed to suddenly understand something, and her laughter carried a hint of sadness and self-mockery:
"Maybe I don't even have a mother... I'm not even human, hehe... haha... hahahaha..."
At this point, Rose's emotions completely collapsed, and tears mixed with hysterical laughter flowed freely.
All her pride and strength shattered completely, leaving only an empty shell that fundamentally doubted its own existence.
She abruptly raised her head, her tearful eyes staring directly at Cang Yu: "Tell me! What is the purpose of my existence?!"
Seeing Rose's complete breakdown, Cang Yu felt as if he had been struck a heavy blow to the heart.
Those thoughts that had long lingered in his mind, those choices he had never been able to make, suddenly found their answers at this moment.
Yes, why always follow other people's arrangements? Why be bound by a predetermined fate?
Shouldn't I be the one to decide all the answers about the future?
Having figured everything out, Cang Yu slowly stood up, a gentle smile appearing on his face like never before.
He stepped forward, slowly approaching Rose through her tear-blurred vision, then opened his arms and gently embraced the trembling girl.
Rose's cries ceased abruptly due to the sudden warmth.
"You have never been a tool." Cang Yu's voice was gentle yet firm in her ear.
"Perhaps your genes do indeed bear the most advanced technological achievements of Denor, but your soul, your will, and every choice you make—these all belong entirely to yourself."
He loosened his embrace slightly, looked down at her tear-filled face, and spoke with increasing tenderness:
"Besides... there have never been few people in this world who deeply love you."
Rose looked up and saw Cang Yu's warm smile.
That smile was so bright and so sincere, it seemed to dispel all the gloom in her heart.
Rose stared blankly at the man embracing her, tears still falling silently, but no longer carrying a sense of despair.
Cang Yu's embrace was warm and firm, as if telling her that no matter what her origins were, she was real at this moment.
"But..." Rose's voice was still choked with sobs;
"If even my existence is a pre-programmed sequence, then what's the point of my emotions, my struggles...?"
"Then break it!"
Cang Yu's voice was resolute, echoing clearly in the night wind. He took a step forward, his gaze piercing:
No one has the right to tell you what to do in your life.
His tone gradually softened, yet carried an undeniable force:
"Go ahead and do whatever you want. As for the consequences..."
The night breeze ruffled the hem of his clothes, and a proud smile curved his lips, as if he were about to shoulder the weight of the entire world:
"All causes and effects are borne by me."
(Actually, this paragraph reflects the author's own thoughts. Initially, I wanted to write a novel that I liked, like the one I wrote before, but because of so many readers' feedback, the more I wrote, the more my head ached.)
(So for this book, I will try my best to listen to everyone's opinions, but in the end I will write the story that I like according to my own will.)
(Of course, please feel free to point out any mistakes~ Mwah!)
