"Come, come, come. Let's drink. We won't stop until we're drunk. If we don't drink until the sky turns dark, we'll be letting down the fate between us brothers!"
He raised his cup and drank again. He drank three cups in a row.
Ren Tianxing asked, "Brother Gu, you seem to be taking pleasure in my misfortune."
"Is that so? How did you see through that? That's right. I might as well tell you that I'm taking pleasure in your misfortune. "
"Why?"
"Is there a need to ask? The more bodies of original sin and false selves there are, the more people will be scapegoats of the Present Calamity. I don't expect to get rid of the false sin in my life. Now that I have a good brother like you to take the blame for the Present Calamity with me, of course I'm happy. When the time comes, whether it's the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth or karma, we can take care of each other."
"If Brother Gu is happy about this, then I can make Brother Gu even happier."
"Oh? Let's hear it. "
"I'm also a variable in the present."
"What? You're also a variable in the present? Hahahaha! "
Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but laugh.
To be honest.
From the first time Gu Qingfeng saw Ren Tianxing, he could tell that he was the same as him. He was a body of original sin and also a false self.
As for the variable.
He really couldn't tell.
He couldn't tell what the variable was.
Now that he knew that Ren Tianxing was also a variable in the present, Gu Qingfeng was both surprised and happy. He was indeed taking pleasure in Ren Tianxing's misfortune.
Just as he had said earlier, the blame of the Present Age Catastrophe had been firmly placed on his head. He couldn't get rid of it, and he didn't expect to get rid of it anymore. Now, Ren Tianxing suddenly appeared, who was also a Body of Original Sin like him, an illusory self, and also a variable in the present age.
In other words, the deeper Gu Qingfeng sank into the vortex of the Present Calamity, the deeper Ren Tianxing sank. The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth couldn't tolerate him, so it couldn't tolerate Ren Tianxing.
Gu Qingfeng felt that his life wasn't in vain to be able to take the blame with his life's best friend.
To put it bluntly, even if they were to be annihilated in the future, everyone would be annihilated together. At least there would be companions on the road.
Even though Gu Qingfeng was used to loneliness and could tolerate it, it didn't mean that he enjoyed it.
This was not something he could enjoy.
In the Daoless Era, in the Original Sin of Falsehood, and in the Present Age Calamity, having a confidant as a companion would at least make one feel less lonely.
"Brother Gu."
As he gazed at the happy Gu Qingfeng, the cold Ren Tianxing shook his head slightly, and he seemed to be rather helpless as he said, "Don't get happy too early. I haven't finished speaking."
"What's the matter?" Gu Qingfeng asked, "Don't tell me you're just playing with me? Aren't you the Ancient Variable? "
Ren Tianxing shook his head and said, "I'm indeed the Ancient Variable. I'm also the Original Sin of Falsehood, but …"
Changing the topic, Ren Tianxing raised his head and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp. He continued, "My Original Sin is not as deep as Brother Gu's. My Falsehood is also not as deep as Brother Gu's. My Ancient Variable is also not as big as Brother Gu's. If the Present Age Calamity is a vortex, I'll fall into the eighteenth layer at most, but Brother Gu, I'm afraid you've already fallen into the fifty-fourth layer, or even deeper …"
Ren Tianxing's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Gu Qingfeng.
Indeed.
He could also see that Ren Tianxing's Original Sin of Falsehood was not as deep as his. As for the Ancient Variable, he had heard more than once that he was not only the Ancient Variable, but also the Daoless Variable … It could be said that he was a variable among variables.
Moreover, even if Ren Tianxing did not say it, Gu Qingfeng himself could feel that he had already fallen very deep into the vortex of the Original Sin of Falsehood of the Daoless Era. It was precisely because of this that he did not expect to be able to escape from the Original Sin of Falsehood.
"Brother Ren."
Gu Qingfeng poured himself a cup of wine and downed it. He smiled and said, "There are some words that you just need to understand. Why do you need to say them out loud? Saying them out loud is meaningless. I can't even deceive myself anymore."
"I wonder what Brother Gu plans to do in the future?"
"What plans?" Gu Qingfeng asked, "What plans are you talking about?"
"Could it be that Brother Gu is prepared to accept his fate?"
"What do you mean by I'm prepared to accept my fate? Old Ren, the problem now is not whether I want to accept my fate or not. It's that I have no choice but to accept my fate even if I don't want to. Otherwise, what can I do? Why don't you give me some pointers? "
Ren Tianxing did not answer this question. It was unknown if he did not want to or if he did not know how to answer. After a while, he said, "Original Sin … is there really no way to escape?"
Upon hearing Ren Tianxing's question, Gu Qingfeng suddenly laughed. He laughed so hard that he was convulsing.
Ren Tianxing frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny about this? "
"What am I laughing at? What do you think I'm laughing at? I'm laughing at the fact that an unyielding man like you, Old Ren, actually admitted defeat in the face of fate. I clearly remember that you said back then that you would never bow down to fate in this life. "
"I did say such a thing. I still say it now, and I will say it in the future. I will never bow down to fate."
"Alright, just admit defeat. We are close friends. What's there to be embarrassed about? I won't laugh at you."
"I have not bowed down to fate!"
"You may not have bowed down to fate yet, but you will soon. From the moment you asked me if you could escape from the original sin, I knew that you had already begun to hesitate and become confused …"
Gu Qingfeng said with a smile, "If I'm not wrong, you should have suffered a lot in order to get rid of the original sin all these years, right? You've even begun to doubt life, haven't you? "
This time, Ren Tianxing still did not respond.
Because the truth was just as Gu Qingfeng said. He had been doing one thing all this time, and that was to get rid of the original sin, cut off karma, and change his fate.
For this reason, he had done everything that should and should not have been done. In order to get rid of the original sin, he had exhausted all means. Unfortunately, in the end, not only did he not get rid of the original sin, but he had also sunk deeper and deeper into it. The more he cut off karma, the more chaotic it became.
Gu Qingfeng was right.
Ren Tianxing had indeed not bowed down to fate, but he had begun to feel confused and hesitant … He even felt that he was about to lose himself.
As the saying went, it was lonely at the top.
Gu Qingfeng had once been the Nine Serenities of the great wilderness, while Ren Tianxing was the Never-Ending Demon Emperor who represented the demonic path.
Both of them could be said to be overlords of the world.
Gu Qingfeng was very lonely.
Ren Tianxing was equally lonely.
Gu Qingfeng didn't have many friends in his life, and Ren Tianxing didn't have many friends either.
Gu Qingfeng admired Ren Tianxing, and Ren Tianxing admired Gu Qingfeng.
Gu Qingfeng regarded Ren Tianxing as a rare confidant in his life, and Ren Tianxing similarly regarded Gu Qingfeng as a rare confidant in his life.
He had only met a confidant like Gu Qingfeng.
That was why the cold and heartless Never-Ending Demon Emperor, Ren Tianxing, sat on the ground and drank wine, revealing his inner thoughts.
Because other than Gu Qingfeng, in this vast world, Ren Tianxing could not find a second person who could confide in him.
