"Old Ren, there is one thing I don't understand. Why do you want to get rid of the original sin?"
Gu Qingfeng asked: "As a person of the original sin, isn't it because the world doesn't tolerate you? There are only two outcomes. Either you are killed by the heavens or you kill the heavens. Regardless of the outcome, it shouldn't be a big problem for you. Even if it leads to an ancient catastrophe and all living things are wiped out, you shouldn't care. Since that's the case, why do you want to get rid of the original sin?"
"Brother Gu, before answering your question, can I ask you why you want to get rid of the original sin?" Ren Tianxing said: "As far as I know, Brother Gu is also not afraid of the world, nor do you care about the grand dao and all living things. Why do you want to get rid of the original sin?"
"You're right, I'm not afraid of heaven and earth, and I don't care about the life and death of all living beings, but …" Gu Qingfeng smiled and said, "I'm a lazy person, and I don't like trouble. I just want to live a carefree life. The Great Way of Heaven and Earth can't tolerate me, and it keeps bothering me. I can't stand it."
"Since that's the case, why don't you just destroy all living things in this world? That way, no one will bother you anymore."
"You don't say, I really did think about it." Gu Qingfeng said: "If I had such great ability, maybe I would have done it. The key is that I don't. How can the grand dao of the world be destroyed so easily?"
"Ah!"
Inexplicably, Ren Tianxing, who had been cold from beginning to end, suddenly smiled and shook his head. He poured a cup of wine for Gu Qingfeng and said: "It seems that I have been thinking too much. Brother Gu doesn't treat me as a friend."
"Why do you say that?"
"I admire Brother Gu's character, and I also admire Brother Gu greatly. Furthermore, I have always treated Brother Gu as a close friend. Thus, when we meet this time, I treat you so frankly and confide in you."
"What are you saying? You're making it sound as if I'm hiding something from you. Old Ren, I'm not lying to you. Let's not talk about our friendship. I won't lie to you even if you gave me a bunch of Hell's Impermanence wine today."
"Fine, I'll ask you again. Did you get rid of the original sin purely because you don't want to get involved in the ancient catastrophe?"
"It's absolutely true."
"What if you can't get rid of it?"
"Nothing. If I can't get rid of it then I won't."
"Brother Gu, have you accepted your fate?"
"You've asked me this question before. and I'm still saying the same thing. I've accepted my fate."
Ren Tianxing didn't continue asking. Instead, he stared at Gu Qingfeng.
"If you don't believe me, I'll swear to the heavens."
"No! I believe you.
"That's right." Gu Qingfeng raised his head and drank the wine. He sighed and said, "Old Ren, our temperaments are compatible. You find me pleasing to the eye and I find you pleasing to the eye. That's why we can chat together. However, there's something different between us."
"What's different?"
"You're a demon and I'm a human."
"What's the difference between a demon and a human? When a human goes crazy, they're even crazier than a demon. Although a demon doesn't have the seven emotions and six desires, good and evil, it doesn't mean that they won't exist in the future. Back in the Nine Underworlds, you've seen demons that are more human than humans. "
"Don't be anxious. Can you listen to me first?"
"Go ahead."
"I'm not saying that demons are different from humans, nor am I discriminating against demons. What I'm saying is that we're different. You're a demon and I'm a human. We have different backgrounds, different personalities, and different experiences. Therefore, our states of mind are also different. What I want may not be what you want, and what you want may not be what I want."
After a pause, Gu Qingfeng continued, "I know that the reason you want to get rid of the original sin is that you don't want to be bound by karma and don't want to become a chess piece of fate. Am I right?"
Ren Tianxing nodded.
He was proud and aloof by nature, even more so than Gu Qingfeng. He didn't allow himself to be bound by karma and didn't allow himself to become a chess piece of fate. Therefore, he wanted to get rid of the original sin at all costs.
"I might as well say it directly. In the past, I didn't want to be bound by karma and didn't want to become a chess piece of fate. Who doesn't want to control their own fate? Everyone wants to. Because of this, I once tried to sever karma at all costs and change fate. Back then, when Pathless Mountain descended, I even gave up the chance to become a saint and ignited the Original Sin Hellfire. Why? It was to get rid of the original sin. "
"When I ignited the Hellfire of Original Sin, I didn't think about whether I would come back to life in the future. To tell you the truth, when I ignited the Hellfire of Original Sin, I didn't want to live anymore. It would be better if I could die completely because I knew that if I came back to life, not only would I not be able to get rid of the original sin, I would sink deeper into it."
"Unfortunately, I came back to life, and as expected, I didn't get rid of the original sin and fell deeper into it …"
Gu Qingfeng raised his cup and drank again. He said, "Old Ren, I'm not as ambitious as you. Even if I had it in the past, it's gone after being tossed around for most of my life …"
"Thinking about it carefully, it's really not easy for me to live this life. In the first half of my life, I fought and killed all day in order to survive. I spent all my youth killing. As the old saying goes, the memories of youth are like green apples, sour and sweet. But in my memories of youth, other than killing, there was only killing. Even now, when I think about it, I feel disgusted!"
"You said that there is no difference between demons and humans. I agree. You said that humans are sometimes crazier than demons. I also agree. You said that demons also have seven emotions and six desires, good and evil morals. I also agree, but that's only in the future."
"Humans are different. Humans are born with seven emotions and six desires, good and evil morals. Every time I killed someone in the past, I would be tortured by my conscience. That kind of guilt was so painful that I wanted to die. You can't understand it at all. Although I've transcended good and evil morals now, I haven't forgotten my emotions. I still have seven emotions and six desires. Many things can't be forgotten or ignored after transcending …"
"To put it bluntly, I'm tired. I've spent all my youth in order to survive in my previous life. I don't want to waste my next life because of karma or fate."
"Original sin, falsehood, karma, fate, whatever f * cking black hole, whatever f * cking calamity, I can't be bothered to think about it anymore. Right now, I just want to live for myself and live for myself."
He raised his cup and drank.
He finished it in one gulp.
Gu Qingfeng stood up, stretched his waist, and said, "As for whether I'm bound by karma or not, and whether I'm a chess piece of fate, let it be. Whatever it wants, it will rain, and mother will get married. What shouldn't happen will never happen. What should happen will eventually happen, and no one can stop it."
Turning around, Gu Qingfeng looked at Ren Tianxing and said, "So, Old Ren, don't waste your time. Accept your fate. What's the point of wasting your time? It's better to have fun. As far as I know, you haven't played with a woman in your life, right? How about we go to the brothel later? I'll call two brothel girls for you to play with. "
