Chapter 318

When Wu Pifu opened his eyes, he had already appeared on a grassy plain. Upon opening his eyes, he immediately saw this planet, saw the continents, saw the oceans on the other side of the world, and saw all things and the common people...

However, this perspective came and went quickly. In the blink of an eye, Wu Pifu could only see what was right in front of him. At the same time, he felt a sensation similar to gratitude, favor, and remembrance. This was not his own feeling, but the emotion bestowed upon him by this world.

That was it. Because of the combined influence of the Ring, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, alchemy, and many other roots, this world possessed a faint "life" characteristic. It was also by relying on this characteristic that the Tyrant became the End Giant, and later, he became the Demon City.

"... I still don't know his name," Wu Pifu muttered to himself.

"He erased his own name."

A rough voice sounded from the side. Wu Pifu turned his head and saw dozens of people standing nearby watching him. Leading them were a man and a woman, and the person who had just spoken was this rough-looking man. Daphne stood obediently beside them, and a Jiujiu with a broken, drooping wing was held in Daphne's hands.

The rough man looked at Wu Pifu with an incredibly complex gaze. He looked back at the dozens of people, as well as the few extraordinary beings hiding in the distance. He turned his head back to look at Wu Pifu, then knelt on one knee, and the group of people behind him also knelt on one knee.

"Savior, we and the world will surely remember your achievements!"

"Passed down through generations, never to be forgotten!"

Everyone said these words in unison, which made Wu Pifu feel incredibly awkward. He forcibly tried to prop up his body, only to discover that one of his arms was broken and the other was completely gone.

Clearly, the injuries he sustained during the battle with the End Giant had not received any healing.

"... A bit too stingy, aren't you?"

Wu Pifu muttered, but still forced himself to sit up.

The dozens of kneeling people stood up at this moment. A person wearing a gray cloak stepped out from the group and said: "The power of the world is chaotic. Even if our world has life characteristics, it does not possess intellect. Of course, if it were the End Giant, that might be an exception... I believe the Savior would not want the End Giant to still be alive, right?"

Wu Pifu nodded and said: "So the world did not grant me healing because it does not understand the degree of 'healing', right?"

The gray-cloaked person said: "Exactly. I believe the Savior can also feel that you have received the favor of this world. Within this world, you are like a biological child. The world favors you. Of course, because this world was severely damaged and almost destroyed, this favor is only favor. But as the world gradually recovers, the Savior will surely obtain the great power of heaven and earth. At that time, you will be the God King of this world, and also the Heavenly Emperor of this world. As long as the Savior is willing, you can completely become a god in this world and ascend to the absolute peak."

Except for the two people standing at the very front, the other dozens of people had some excitement and fanaticism on their faces. As for what they were thinking inside, Wu Pifu had no interest in knowing. He just nodded to the gray-cloaked person and said: "I understand... Sorry, everyone, I am severely injured and estimate I need to recuperate for a while. If there is nothing else, let us part ways for now."

The gray-cloaked person was slightly silent, then immediately said: "As you command, Savior. We will surely respectfully look forward to the Savior's arrival."

After speaking, the gray-cloaked person retreated a few steps, dissipated into a pile of ashes, and disappeared. The remaining dozens of people all bowed and left one after another.

After these dozens of people had all left, and the extraordinary beings hiding in the distance had also vanished without a trace, Daphne couldn't help but say: "What kind of people are they! They don't even look at the occasion, just talking to themselves there!"

Her mother, Anna, walked to Daphne's side, hugged her with one arm, and said: "They are all existing powerful extraordinary beings, and some of them are even top-tier extraordinary beings from other eras. You must not be so rude in front of them."

Daphne said with slight impatience: "I'm not stupid. I can feel that they are powerful, I just think they are being overly sycophantic."

Her father, Beo, shook his head and said: "It's not really sycophancy, it's just that everyone has different pursuits. They want to go further, so they plan to make an investment in advance."

Wu Pifu stood up at this moment and said: "You two, is there any place to rest nearby?"

Beo smiled at Wu Pifu and said: "Naturally, there is. There is a creek valley here, which is a vacation spot for my wife and me, and also the place where Daphne was born. Others don't know about it, I will take you there."

Wu Pifu naturally followed.

After walking for more than twenty minutes, the group arrived at a low-lying valley in a remote mountainous area. Sure enough, there was a room that looked like a mountain keeper's hut. It looked quite dilapidated and was a wooden house, but after opening the wooden door, the interior decoration was not bad. Except for some accumulated dust, it still looked quite cozy.

After everyone was seated, Anna boiled some water and poured a bowl for everyone. Only then did Beo say to Wu Pifu with a complex expression: "I really didn't expect that the End Giant would actually be defeated."

Daphne might be ignorant, but Beo and Anna, as well as the dozens of people just now, and even those top-tier extraordinary beings from other eras, only they knew what an incredible thing this was.

Beo said: "That was something from I don't know how many epochs ago. After he executed the Demon City plan, we had been preparing for the final battle. But... with the reincarnation of epochs, this preparation seemed so ridiculous. We never thought that one day, someone would actually come driving the world. This is simply like a dream."

Anna also said: "You shouldn't blame those people for being so sycophantic, because your feat is worthy of all this treatment. Moreover, what that gray-robed mage said just now is not false. Once this world recovers, you will be the biological child of this world, the Savior. The great power of heaven and earth, accompanied by the origin, will surely descend to favor you. At that time, you can easily become a god in this world, and once you become a god, you will surely be a Main God, and the most special one who controls the authority of heaven and earth. You can be called the God King, and even the Heavenly Emperor. All of this is true."

Daphne said in surprise from the side: "Wu Pifu, did you hear that!? You can become an immortal existence, and such a powerful immortal existence at that. In this way, you don't have to fear those demons and ghosts at all!" Wu Pifu, however, had a calm expression. He looked at the water bowl in front of him, but was complaining about another matter in his heart.

(I don't even have hands, and you pour me a bowl of water... Am I supposed to lick it up?)

Although he was complaining, Wu Pifu still pondered for a moment and responded: "Then the price... what is it?"

Beo and Anna were silent for a long time. Only then did Beo say: "To become a person of this world, no, to become a god of this world, a guardian god, you cannot take the authority of the Heavenly Emperor to other worlds. Other worlds will never acknowledge it either. This means provocation and war."

Daphne was stunned, and Wu Pifu laughed.

He smiled, shook his head, and said: "You should know that I am a person from outside the heavens. This is not a secret. My roots are not here. Although this world is not a stop on my path, I am equivalent to a passerby. I will surely leave. This point will not change."

Anna immediately said anxiously: "Why? I have also communicated with some people from outside the heavens. The world outside the heavens is not some paradise or heaven. It is also full of terror, war, and death. Our world's disaster is just a difference in degree. Now that you have saved this world, as long as you wait for the world to slowly transform and recover, you can become the supreme being of this world. At that time, you will be the strongest in this world, and even immortal. Even your beloved ones can also be immortal, and you can enjoy endless blessings. Why would you refuse?"

Wu Pifu naturally knew what Beo and Anna meant.

If the dozens of extraordinary beings before were wanting to invest in Wu Pifu, wanting to use this investment to become his subordinates, then Beo and Anna's meaning was very simple...

They wanted to fight for something for Daphne.

It wasn't some narrow-minded idea like being the master of a harem, they just didn't want their daughter to continue adventuring outside the heavens.

It was simply as parents, wanting to keep their daughter, and also hoping to keep a thought of their daughter.

!

Wu Pifu shook his head slightly and said: "I said it, my roots are not here. Any Heavenly Emperor is not my pursuit, so I will surely leave. Although I will come back, this world is not my destination. As for Daphne..."

Wu Pifu signaled for Daphne to come closer. After she walked over, Wu Pifu looked at Jiujiu, and Jiujiu also endured the pain and jumped from Daphne's hand onto his shoulder.

"Daphne, I will give you the chance to choose."

Wu Pifu didn't look at Daphne. He stood up and walked outside the house, saying as he walked: "I am severely injured and need to go back to Gaia, so I will give you the chance to choose. I will wait for you outside the house."

After speaking, Wu Pifu had already walked out of the house.

Inside the house, only Beo, Anna, and their daughter Daphne remained.

Outside the house, Jiujiu chirped at Wu Pifu.

Wu Pifu shook his head slightly and said: "I don't know, perhaps."

Jiujiu dissatisfiedly nudged Wu Pifu with its head and continued to chirp.

Wu Pifu looked up at the sky and said: "A young bird must eventually leave the nest, but that must follow her own will. By the same token, she is an independent person, and what she will be like in the future is decided by herself, understand?"

After a moment, Wu Pifu turned his head and saw Daphne walking out of the door with red eyes, while Beo and Anna were both standing at the door watching him.

Wu Pifu looked at Daphne walking toward him, then looked at Beo and Anna. He nodded slightly to the two of them, and the next second, Daphne grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"... I'm just accompanying you back for treatment!" Daphne said in a low voice.

"Hmm, okay."

"... Will you come back?"

"Of course, I will come back for one day every thirty days."

"... Next time I will take you to a valley, I loved playing there the most when I was little."

"Okay."

The next instant, Wu Pifu, Jiujiu, and Daphne disappeared from where they were.
