Chapter 160
Tiandou Royal Academy.
It was already night when Nan Feng returned.
"What kind of situation is this again?"
Nan Feng looked suspiciously at the Snow Emperor, Bibi Dong, and their group standing together.
Are you people actually able to stand together?
"She said you are courting death; is that true?" the Bing Di asked.
Nan Feng paused, "From a certain perspective, that is so."
"Why?" the Bing Di asked, confused.
"Because I don't want to wait for death," Nan Feng said.
"I have to see if my own life is truly in my own hands."
"I have endured the sword hanging over my head, which I don't even know exists, for twenty years. Now, I want to see if this thing actually exists and if it will fall."
"But you don't need to gamble like this!" Bibi Dong said.
"You can wait, wait until I become a god."
"You said that no matter how the world changes, oppression will not disappear. Even if you succeed, this world will not get better. If someone is laughing, someone must be crying. People do not crave progress; as long as they can trample others under their feet, that is enough."
"You clearly know this, so why must you do it this way?"
Bibi Dong could not understand, and she could not accept it!
Why must Nan Feng be this way?
As long as she becomes a god, she can take Nan Feng and ascend, out of sight and out of mind. By then, how this human world develops will have nothing to do with them!
So what if Nan Feng succeeds?
He can only accelerate the Douluo Continent's progress by ten thousand years; he cannot change this world! And this bastard is not some saint worried about the world!
So what if the Xuantian Skill is popularized? So what if everyone can practice it?
So what if the conflict between soul beasts and humans is resolved? Will the class hierarchy among humans disappear?
Or will the slaughter between humans and soul beasts disappear? No! None of it will!
Classes also exist among Spirit Masters: the strong against the weak, the weak against the even weaker! Must the strong always oppress the weak? Must the strong always exploit the weak?
Yes! Absolutely! This is fucking human nature! It cannot be changed at all! Even those weak people outside who are currently being oppressed, once they possess power, they will become the new oppressors! There is only one possibility for so-called harmony: everyone is weak! And there is an alien slave owner above! Black needs white to set it off! Without war, how can there be peace? Without suffering, how can there be happiness? Without weakness, how can there be strength? Eliminating darkness will also eliminate light! All beauty comes from ugly contrast! Whether it's "bitter first, sweet later" or "sweet first, bitter later," it's all the same principle! If you haven't tasted bitterness, you don't know what the concept of sweetness is! People who have lived in luxury since childhood and have never seen poverty will only think it's a matter of course!
Without suffering, people cannot feel happiness!
The world Nan Feng wants simply does not exist!
And he is very clear about this! He has been very clear about it from the beginning! And it is precisely because this bastard knows all this that she finds it even harder to understand!
Why! Why must he test it?
"Why..." Nan Feng raised his head.
"Didn't I tell you? I want to see which side of the light and darkness in people's hearts prevails."
"That is all."
"Then why must you use your life to test it?" Bibi Dong asked.
"Because I only have this method," Nan Feng said.
"And this method is the most reliable."
"Human nature is cowardly and content with the status quo; unless forced, people will not want to progress."
"Only competition can bring progress; only with pressure is there motivation."
"People are just that cheap."
"Just like the current Douluo Continent, those people lying on the ground are all expecting me to bring that beautiful tomorrow; they just want to lie on the ground and receive it."
"Getting something for nothing, working little and taking much—this is the nature of humanity."
"It is not the strong who dominate the world, nor the weak."
"It is the human heart."
"Because the human heart wants to trample others underfoot, the strong trample the weak underfoot; because the human heart wants privilege and wants to oppress, oppression is born." "Oppression is not created because of the existence of power, and happiness is not something that progress can bring."
"Even if I accelerate the world, I cannot eliminate these things."
"It will just be a change of oppressors and a change of the oppressed."
"I tried to change it, but after trying, I accepted my fate."
"I feel disgusted and bored with such a world; I am tired."
"..."
Nan Feng sighed, turned around, and walked away.
The next plan is his final attempt.
If it succeeds, that is for the best; if it fails, he has no need to continue trying.
"You want to die?" Bibi Dong flashed forward and grabbed Nan Feng.
"I cannot endure it, and I cannot change it. Either this world is destroyed, or I am destroyed," Nan Feng said.
"Have you forgotten?"
"Why did I choose you?"
"Because you equally hate everything in this world."
When he was in the City of Slaughter, he truly intended to help Bibi Dong destroy this world from the beginning, and everything he did afterward was just preparation for that.
Why didn't he directly incite a war between the two great empires?
Because the timing wasn't right.
He wants to turn a war for profit into a war for defending one's own interests; if one doesn't fight or kill, one will lose everything! He wants to trigger a war that cannot be stopped.
"Then why did you give up?" Bibi Dong asked.
"Why did you want to change me?"
"Why did you spend so much time and take such a big risk to turn me into a normal person?"
"I don't know," Nan Feng smiled helplessly.
"I don't even know why I did that."
He originally wanted to use Bibi Dong's power to destroy everything, yet he kept trying hard to pull Bibi Dong's thoughts back! And he succeeded!
Contradictory.
Many times, he really doesn't know what he is doing.
"But you clearly didn't want to die before!" Bibi Dong said.
"Why are you now..."
Before Bibi Dong could finish her sentence, Nan Feng interrupted her again.
"Don't you understand yet?"
He is a contradictory, crazy, selfish, and sensitive person.
At first, he indeed wanted to destroy this world.
But after he truly started trying, he saw many good things, and he wavered; there was no need for these good things to be buried along with that trash.
So for a period of time, he really changed his plan and his direction; he wanted to make this world better.
But later on, he suddenly felt that this world was meaningless again.
His brain would have fits of madness from time to time.
The world has a beautiful side, and then what? What does that have to do with him?
He is just a bystander.
"I said I cannot believe you; do you think I am joking?" Nan Feng said.
"I am truly tired, and I am tired of being crazy."
"Let it be."
