"It's f * cking not easy for anyone to live."
Huo De lamented.
This was what he truly felt after listening to Gu Qingfeng and Ren Tianxing's conversation.
Thus, he finally realized that behind any great reputation, there might be troubles, worries, and dangers that ordinary people couldn't imagine.
The greater the fame, the more suffering one had to bear.
The famous Never-Ending Demon Emperor Ren Tianxing was the same.
The all-powerful Nine Serenities Gu Qingfeng was the same.
Each of them was more famous than the other, and the things they did back then were crazier than the other. At the same time, the suffering they had to bear was also more than the other.
While he was lamenting, Gu Qingfeng said indifferently, "There's nothing difficult about living purely. What's really difficult is living the way you want to live."
"Are you trying to say that you're the only one who can do it? Who doesn't want to live the way they want to live? But the key is that in this world, since ancient times, how many people have been able to live the way they want to live? "
Gu Qingfeng chuckled and said, "If you can't live the way you want to, then why don't you just make do with it like this old master? Think about everything for a day and live happily every day. What's the point of wasting time? What a pity! It's really a pity. "
"What's a pity?"
"It's a pity that Old Ren doesn't understand this."
"It's not that Ren Tianxing doesn't understand. He just doesn't want to make do, and he doesn't want to make do. Do you think everyone is like you!"
"So."
"So what?"
"So he's Ren Tianxing, and I'm Gu Qingfeng."
"You? Cool breeze? " Huo De looked at Gu Qingfeng with disdain. "Look at you, kid. How do you look like a cool breeze? I think you're more like a gust of evil wind."
As he spoke, Huo De seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Right, this old man has always wanted to ask you a question. Why did you suddenly change your name?"
Huo De used to think that Gu Qingfeng might have caused some trouble in the Great Wilderness, so he had to change his name. However, when he arrived at the Great Wilderness, he realized that for an overlord like Gu Qingfeng, changing his name was like taking off his pants to fart. Not to mention changing his name, even if he changed his head, possessed another body, or reincarnated, he wouldn't be able to hide it from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
What's more, with Huo De's understanding of Gu Qingfeng, Gu Qingfeng would never do something as petty as changing his name to avoid being hunted down.
"The name Qing Feng was given to me by a woman."
"A woman changed your name?" Huo De was curious and asked, "Why did she change your name?"
"She said she didn't like my name being Gu Tianlang, so she changed it to Gu Qingfeng."
"She didn't like it, so you changed it? Kid, when did you become so obedient to women? "
"I had no choice. I lost a bet to her. A real man's words are like a nail. Since I lost the bet, I could only admit defeat and change my name."
Thinking back to the time when he was forced to change his name after losing a bet, Gu Qingfeng still remembered it vividly. He said with melancholy, "I've made many bets with people in my life, and I've only lost once. However, it was this loss that caused me to lose my original name … Small bets are pleasurable, large bets are harmful to the body, large bets are beyond redemption, and strong bets are reduced to ashes. The old saying is not without reason."
"Kid, aren't you playing a bit too extravagant? This is the first time I've heard of a bet where one's name can be used as a wager. You guys really know how to play. You've lived for so long that you can encounter all kinds of rare things. "
Huo De asked curiously, "However, who was the woman who won against you? She sounds very powerful. "
Gu Qingfeng lazily glanced at Huo De and said, "Do you want to know?"
Huo De nodded heavily. He really wanted to know which woman changed Gu Qingfeng's name.
"Actually, it's a bit of a stretch to say that she's a woman. Strictly speaking, she's not a real woman."
Hearing this, Huo De didn't understand and asked, "What do you mean not a real woman? Is she a man? Could it be a demon? A castrate? "
"It's not that strange. When one cultivates to a certain level, there's no such thing as gender. If you want to become a man, you'll become a man. If you want to become a woman, you'll become a woman. The reason I said that the person who won against you was a woman is because she usually transforms into a woman. At least, she looks like a woman. As for whether she's a woman or not, I haven't verified it, so I'm not sure."
"Brat, you've said so much. Who is she?"
"Have you heard of this saying? Know the past and future, control fate and karma, predict the universe, understand the mysteries of heaven and earth!"
Huo De's heart skipped a beat and he said in shock, "You're talking about Elder Tian Ji, known as the Messenger of Karma, the embodiment of fate, Ancient Nameless?"
"That's right, it's her!"
"Brat, are you stupid? Bet with Ancient Nameless? Isn't that playing with lightning in front of the God of Thunder and Mother of Lightning? Playing with Mother Nature, isn't that showing off in front of an expert? She's known as the Messenger of Karma, the embodiment of fate! Know the past and future, predict the universe, you bet with her. It'd be strange if you won! "
"If I had known that she was Ancient Nameless back then, I wouldn't have gambled with her. Most importantly, I didn't even know her identity back then. It was only many years later that I guessed that she might be Ancient Nameless."
"Why did Ancient Nameless change your name?"
"I also want to know the answer to this question."
"Brat, you didn't ask?"
"Ask who? Was it that little girl from the Ancient Times? I've only seen her once in my life, and it was during the descent of Pathless Mountain. At that time, I was only thinking about the original sin and forgot about this matter. "
"Brat, you're really broad-minded. If it was someone else who changed your name, it'd be fine. But it had to be Ancient Nameless. You can't not take this matter to heart. This old man thinks that the reason she changed your name is definitely not as simple as not liking your name. There must be something fishy going on."
"Aiyo, Huo De, you're not simple. You've learned to use your brain."
"Brat, are you laughing at this old man? This old man is telling you the truth. Can you be more serious, brat?! "
"What's there to be serious about? If that little girl who bet with me back then is really Ancient Nameless, then it must have something to do with the Falsehood of Original Sin and the Variables. Changing my name has nothing to do with the Falsehood of Original Sin. This old man reckons that it has something to do with the Variables. Perhaps Ancient Nameless already knows that I'm a Variable, so she purposely changed my name so that I'm less of a Variable and within her control. This is like hammering a nail into my body. No matter how my karma changes, even if Ancient Nameless can't control it, she'll know immediately."
