The autumn wind had yet to fall, and the morning glow was brilliant.
The two fruits were leaning against the branches, bathing in the vitality and radiance of the morning sun.
"Bro, I'm full" Little Dusk said.
"You're eating too little. Absolutely not. Eat more," Gu Qing Shan said.
"I usually don't eat in the morning …"
"Hmph, how can you be nutritious if you don't eat breakfast? From now on, you have to eat breakfast every morning, understand?"
"Got it."
The fruit named Dusk quietly stayed on the branch.
Rays of orange light gradually rose into the air, alternating between light and dark, turning into a bright golden color that shone on her small body.
Xiaoxi couldn't help but sigh, "The morning light is so beautiful."
Gu Qing Shan was silent for a moment, then rolled to Xiaoxi's side and said,
"Xiaoxi, this is called Morning Glow."
"Is that so? What a wonderful name. "
"But the appearance of this glow means that the weather will become bad," he explained.
"Oh? Will it rain? "Little Dusk asked with interest.
"It's very likely to be a cloudy and rainy day. There's a saying that goes, 'the morning glow does not go out'."
"What does that mean?"
"To put it simply, when sunlight shines through the atmosphere, it will be scattered by the air molecules along the way. In the spectrum, the light in purple, blue, green, and other colors with shorter wavelengths are the most easily scattered, and the light in red, orange, yellow, and other colors with longer wavelengths are more transmissive. If the morning glow is bright, it means that there are more water vapor and larger particles in the atmosphere. The sky is very unstable, and there is a high chance that it will be rainy.
Little Xi said in admiration: "Big brother, you really know a lot"
"Haha, if there's anything you don't understand, you can ask. Big Brother will definitely answer you."
"… So big brother has always cared about me."
"Of course!"
As Gu Qing Shan spoke, she silently pondered in her heart.
He had already been in this world for a while.
Soon, the Goddess of Destiny would come and take over this body.
What method was there to foil the Goddess of Destiny's plans?
The other party was a god, and he was just a fruit. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't resist this.
However …
Even though Reneedol's body had been taken over, she was still alive.
Her soul had always existed, and it had persisted to the very end.
Should he repeat the process?
… No.
Allowing someone else to occupy his body was tantamount to handing over a knife to someone else.
He still had to think of a way to change this.
Gu Qing Shan made up her mind and suddenly rolled towards the tip of the branch.
As he rolled, he shouted, "I don't want to live anymore! I'm going to jump! "
In the quiet forest, his voice spread in all directions.
Xiaoxi screamed, "Brother! What happened to you? "
She hurriedly rolled over, trying to stop Gu Qing Shan.
More people were alarmed.
The elves appeared in groups under the Twin Tree of Destiny.
The giants had also arrived.
An elderly elf led all the elves to kneel under the tree and hurriedly shouted, "Our guardian, what happened to you?"
The giants also nervously looked at Little Dusk.
"I, the child of the Twin Tree of Fate, the guardian of your elven race, have now sensed some sort of danger" Gu Qing Shan loudly declared.
"Crisis?" The Elf Grand Elder was dumbfounded.
"Yes, you must summon the Law Behemoths immediately! Only it can keep me and Xiaoxi safe! "Gu Qing Shan said seriously.
"Then — –"
"If you don't summon it, I'm going to jump!"
"Please don't! We will immediately prepare the altar and summon the Behemoths to investigate! "
…
A few moments later.
From the void of space, a gigantic creature silently descended.
All the elves and giants knelt on the ground, deeply lowering their heads.
「 Child of Fate, you said you sensed danger? 」
The Law Behemoth looked down at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Although I have yet to be born, I have already awakened the ability to sense danger. I can sense an evil entity coveting my and Dusk's bodies"
「 Huh? 」 the Law Behemoth's vertical pupils suddenly opened wide.
An immense power radiated from its body, sweeping across the entire forest.
The elves and giants knelt even lower.
Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded and silently muttered in her mind: "Indeed … this is the power …"
At this point in time, the Reality Gate still hadn't opened, and the truly powerful Apocalypse had yet to descend.
Almost all the Divinities were dead, only their souls remained in the Dusty World, only daring to sneak into the Realm of Reincarnation.
— — -this was the era of the Law Behemoths.
On this earth, these Overlords were the strongest.
They were synonymous with power.
"O 'Overlord, I can sense an evil power passing through the River of Life and Death, silently approaching from the Dusty World, preparing to take over my and Dusk's bodies and restore the glory of the past!"
Gu Qing Shan loudly declared.
The Law Behemoth spat out a mass of grey light that entered Gu Qing Shan and Little Dusk's bodies.
A few moments later.
The light flew out from their bodies and was absorbed back into the Law Behemoth.
The Law Behemoth's gaze softened a bit.
「 You are still the fruits you were before … the problem does not lie with you 」
「 However, since you even know about the River of Life and Death and the Dusty World, it seems you have truly awakened a bit of foresight ability 」 the Law Behemoth said.
"That's right, please save us" Gu Qing Shan loudly said.
The Law Behemoth spoke full of killing intent: 「 Of course, of course I want to save you. The Twin Trees of Fate are the masterpiece of our strongest Overlords, they will become the masters of the mortal realm, we will not allow those thieves to steal our fruits! 」
「 — — wait here, I will call for some reinforcements to set up a trap 」
Saying so, the Law Behemoth disappeared from the sky.
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.
「 Alright, you can all disperse now, no need to kneel 」 he told the elves and giants below the tree.
The elven Grand Elder said: "But …"
"No buts, if a bunch of Law Behemoths were to hide and set up a trap, this isn't a problem at all, go do what you need to do, ah, about that, don't talk about it, got it?"
While ordering them, Gu Qing Shan rolled back into the tree and calmly laid down.
"Bro?" Little Dusk also rolled back and carefully called out.
"Ah, Little Dusk, come, big bro will tell you about Dawn Glow — — - there are a lot of scientific principles involved"
"… Bro, will we be alright?"
"Don't worry, with big bro here, no one will be able to bully you"
"Hm, I believe in big bro"
…
At another location.
Reneedol stood in the darkness.
Just now, I was beheaded with a single slash?
How could that soldier do that to someone like me?
Reneedol was in disbelief.
— — where exactly did I go wrong?
She fell into deep thought.
All of a sudden, a hoarse female voice resounded from the boundless darkness:
「 You've died once 」
Reneedol immediately asked: "Where's Rhode? Is he dead? "
「 He's not dead 」 the hoarse female voice replied.
Reneedol's expression changed.
My fate was swapped with Rhode's. I don't know what Rhode went through, but he died for no reason at all.
— — -but during the final moments of the Age of Immemorial, Rhode heard Shroud mention to me that his body was taken over by the Goddess of Fate.
He must have been prepared for this.
"This isn't fair! I don't know what Rhode went through, but he knows what I went through! "
Reneedol shouted.
From the darkness, the hoarse female voice resounded again: 「 Fate has always been unfair, you need to win against it 」
Reneedol was completely stunned.
Fate … is unfair …
Win against it.
That's right, I've always been the one to win against fate, so why am I panicking now?
She calmed down and carefully thought about it.
If Rhode accepted his fate …
Have I ever been through any particularly dangerous situations in my life?
At first, the Goddess of Fate took over my body, met Shroud, and awakened her power. As a soul, it was at that time that I met Shroud, then made a pact with him to think of a way to chase away the Goddess of Fate.
Then …
Reneedol felt a bit dazed.
— — carefully thinking back, I've never been in any dangerous situations.
Even at the very last moment, Shroud had made ample preparations for me, allowing me to easily reclaim my body and obtain unprecedented power.
From then on, nothing could ever win against me.
Even if Rhode framed me and forced me to stay by Shroud's side, it wasn't a big deal.
I simply waited for Shroud to grow up and become strong enough to return to the Dusty World to retrieve the Divine Armament of Fate. I didn't run into any danger during this process.
Shroud even passed the throne of the Divine King to me.
The Myriad Deities all knelt in front of me.
… Come to think of it …
I've never run into any sort of danger.
How could this be?
I've always been fighting against fate.
I've never been willing to become the partner of the strongest!
— — -if Rhode accepted his fate, he would also have to face this problem!
But!
But!
This is only a choice to become someone's partner, not a life-or-death situation. Compared to Rhode's fate …
My fate can't kill Rhode, but Rhode's fate is too dangerous!
Reneedol felt a bit dejected.
The hoarse female voice resounded again:
「 You are about to enter a second chance 」
「 This is another part of Rhode's fate, you will have to fight against fate for the sake of survival 」
「 Go, win against fate, or be enslaved by fate 」
The darkness around her scattered, revealing a new world in front of her.
Recalling that experience, Reneedol couldn't help but take a step back.
