Chapter 749 No fate, no arrangement, only this way can we move towards the future
Every word Dongfang Konghong said was like a hammer hitting Fang Wuwei's heart, destroying and collapsing his worldview time and time again, and then rebuilding it bit by bit. Finally, he sat down on the ground powerlessly, causing ripples on the golden water surface.
"I'm destined?"
"For us, life doesn't exist. You still need to fight for it."
"Why did I travel through time? And why did I... appear in the body of Dongfang Konghong now..."
Dongfang Konghong stood in the distance, looking at Fang Wuwei whose worldview collapsed, and sighed slightly.
He also knew this feeling. Wasn't he the same at the beginning?
"The me who appears before you now is a fragment and phantom of the soul left over from generation to generation. I don't know much more than you do. If you want to know more, I suggest you learn some time skills, escape from this extremely chaotic timeline, find me who is still alive, and ask me in person."
"Time... do I have this talent?"
"I don't know. Each of us is a completely different individual. What we are good at, what we are not good at, what we like and what we hate are all different. Just like me, my predecessor had a deep understanding of space, but my talent for space is almost zero. However, I have a very high talent for time... You and I are the most similar predecessors and successors. Maybe you will also have a talent for time. Give it a try."
Fang Wuwei nodded somewhat dejectedly.
"I finally understand why I was able to receive all the tokens from the four high-ranking members of the Crusaders... [We] have a close relationship with the Supreme Being?"
"Yes."
"So that's why they're helping me like this? The Sword and Spear Crusaders will give me special treatment?"
Dongfang Konghong shook his head, lowered his head to look at the water, and slowly sat down cross-legged.
"Giving you the token is because you are the most special person in the world so far. This is already a lot of preferential treatment for you. I don't think there will be any more excessive treatment... The entire Sword and Gun Crusade will not give you any more preferential treatment."
"Even if I die? Completely perished?"
"That is just a failed incarnation like me and countless previous generations, which fell on the road. Tianyuan and his companions' mission is just to watch and wait for our success. If you fail, they will only wait for our next incarnation to appear again.
They were just his subordinates, and most of what they did was just waiting for his orders, and they didn't know much."
Fang Wuwei looked up at the space and sky that had become extremely unfamiliar, and asked calmly.
"How powerful he...Supreme... is."
Dongfang Konghong was stunned for a moment. He couldn't think of why Fang Wuwei would ask this question, but since Fang Wuwei would ask, he must have his doubts. He didn't understand, but he respected.
"I don't know either. I've never seen him. He's elusive and mysterious. All I know is what my predecessor told me. The only information I know about his strength is that... So far, he has never had an opponent."
"Invincible?"
"Invincible."
"His purpose..."
"It is not clear, and its existence is also not clear."
The doubts in Fang Wuwei's heart did not disappear with Dongfang Konghong's description, but became even stronger, indicating that the fog of the unknown was still thick.
"You said you have profound knowledge of time. Have you ever tried to go back and find our first life...our original body?"
Dongfang Konghong nodded, but then shook his head.
“Tried, but failed.”
"Ok?"
"The existence of the original body was erased from the timeline. His causal existence, time trajectory, and even his existence are all in chaos... I can't find him. No matter how far I go in the past, no matter how hard I try, I can't find him. Even the Supreme has never seen him.
It felt to me like…he didn’t want us to find him, he…they just wanted us to keep going.”
"It's so unfair for us to move forward aimlessly like a headless fly."
"It's OK. It's not unacceptable. I and countless previous generations have done research. We don't have a destiny line on our bodies. Whether it's fate or the arrangements of the higher-ups, they can't have any impact on us."
"Not a chess piece, nor an arrangement, only the self, and continuation?"
"Yes."
Dongfang Konghong nodded. The galaxy above their heads gradually dimmed. The scarlet moon was looming. Fang Wuwei's consciousness was slowly breaking through Dongfang Konghong's suppression and emerging.
“You are destined to reach heights that ordinary people cannot reach in this life. You just need to… just keep going. What our outcome is has nothing to do with you and me.
Fate...maybe it exists, it's already arranged, but we are the only ones who are outside of it."
Dongfang Konghong raised his head, looked at the sky and smiled slightly.
"Let's stop here for today. Our sister is back, and you should leave now."
"I have one last question."
"Oh?"
Fang Wuwei slowly stood up from the water. The control of this space had returned to his hands. Dongfang Konghong's influence gradually disappeared, and his consciousness became clear.
"As the most successful incarnation, how strong are you?"
"I?"
Dongfang Konghong smiled.
"I was the one who brought that kid Kafia out."
The illusion space shattered in an instant, and the world that had returned to scarlet dimmed and dissipated. Fang Wuwei felt that his consciousness was rapidly separating from the illusion, and he was being forcibly dragged out of the illusion.
"Ah... I hope this won't be the last time we meet."
At the last moment, Fang Wuwei heard a whisper from Dongfang Konghong.
"Brother!!"
Fang Wuyou's shout broke through his eardrums and pulled his consciousness back to his body. In a trance, he found himself slumped on the ground, blood flowing from his right eye. The faucet he turned on was still not closed, and the sound of water rushing in the sink echoed in his ears, acting as their background sound, so harsh.
"Are you OK?"
Fang Wuwei raised his eyes and looked towards the invisible light source on the ceiling, but his sight was blocked by Fang Wuyou's worried face. Only then did he realize that Fang Wuyou's hand was pressing on his head, flashing fluorescent light, continuously treating him.
"...Worry-free?"
"Huh... you don't look stupid yet. How did you come up with such a stupid idea as launching an aggressive mental attack on yourself, which is close to suicide?"
Fang Wuyou slowly removed his hand from Fang Wuwei's head, supported his body and lifted him up, then turned off the running faucet. Only then did Fang Wuwei realize that his body was exhausted and weak.
He subconsciously looked towards the mirror, only to find that the mirror that allowed him to cast illusions on himself had been broken. Judging from the outline of the blow, he must have punched it himself, right at the spot of his right eye.
......when?
When he was confused, Fang Wuwei saw himself in the broken mirror. His eyes were dark and empty. He nodded at him, but just blinked, and the man in the mirror returned to normal.
