Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

Fu She emerged from the thick fog; seeing Xiao was no surprise to him, and seeing the white-haired Shen Wu General was no surprise either.

He dropped to one knee, cupped his fists in salute: "General."

The Shen Wu troops following behind him knelt in unison, the clatter of armor colliding exceptionally clear in the windless Qiu Ge Zhi Di.

Xuan Ge raised his hand, signaling everyone to rise, then looked at Fu She and said: "You seem to know a lot?"

The moment this Lei Yaksha laid eyes on him, there was no curiosity, no scrutiny, no suspicion — only verification.

As if verifying that a person waited for a very long time had finally stood in the position he ought to stand.

"General, the answer lies in the depths of Qiu Ge; please follow me."

Fu She admitted he knew a lot, but this answer should not be spoken by him; it was something the Shen Wu Great General had personally instructed.

Xuan Ge smiled and nodded; Fu She knew but would not say — this was indeed like whetting his own appetite.

He wasn't like Huan who needed a journey to find answers; he could cheat and directly trace cause and effect.

But the Xuan Ge here seemed to have calculated that he could not exert too much power, and had long since prepared the answer, just waiting for him to arrive in one step.

Fu She waved his hand, and the Shen Wu troops cleared a passage.

"General, just walk straight ahead; the path will guide you."

Fu She extended a hand in salute, and together with Xiao, fell half a body-length behind Xuan Ge.

Xuan Ge acknowledged with a sound, strode forward, his gaze sweeping over the Shen Wu troops wearing masks on both sides, and suddenly asked: "These years, have you wanted to go home?"

Fu She glanced at Xiao, and replied: "Lord General, best not to test us."

"Hmm, looks like it was my order that had you guarding this place."

Xuan Ge heard the answer; at this moment he was only one final step away from the truth.

The road ahead grew clearer and clearer, and his heart grew restless along with it.

Shen Wu, or Cinder Light.

No matter who stood there, today he would completely straighten out this line.

Fu She suddenly halted, grabbing Xiao's arm: "General, ahead is our forbidden zone."

"Fall back." Xuan Ge had already seen the target.

It was a sea of flowers.

And what surprised him was that the flowers planted here were actually the very kind Ling Sha liked most.

The Teyvat Shen Wu Great General stood in the center of the flower sea, smiling faintly at him.

"Should I address you as the Main Body, or as the Destruction Monarch Cinder Light?"

"So that's how it is."

Xuan Ge finally understood why his past self had spoken those words.

So this was how he was born.

"When the Ice Empress brought those words to you, you had already guessed, hadn't you?"

Xuan Ge sighed: "Ah, playing with causality, in the end played by causality."

【36】 Xuan Ge sighed: "Ah, playing with causality, in the end played by causality."

【37】 Xuan Ge sighed: "Ah, playing with causality, in the end played by causality."

This time he had completely figured it out.

He and Cinder Light were a multi-layered mirror, and all these Xuan Ge, including himself, were all created by Cinder Light toying with causality.

"Looks like you've figured it out." The Shen Wu General could sense Xuan Ge's emotions. "I am Xuan Ge, and you are Cinder Light."

"I know. Inverting effect as cause — no wonder Cinder Light would thoroughly become the embodiment of Destruction."

The Shen Wu General before him was no different from him; he was a split-lens caused by his crossing of world lines.

Crossing world lines back then was actually his mistake; in that instant he truly thought he would die.

In the moment of peril, it was the Teyvat Xuan Ge who guided him over.

It was causality that saved him.

And the Teyvat Xuan Ge had arrived here earlier than him, and in an extremely short time simulated a relationship between Cinder Light and Xuan Ge.

"Since you've figured it out, what will you do now?"

The Shen Wu General spread his arms wide, awaiting the Main Body's answer.

If he took one wrong step, he would become the true Destruction Monarch Cinder Light.

Xuan Ge smiled; he had come to find answers to deal with Cinder Light, not to become Cinder Light.

"Cinder Light hates Jing Liu and hates Jing Yuan because he was betrayed, and the cause of all this was precisely Gui Ji."

He did not rush to give an answer, but instead straightened out the matter from the beginning.

"Cinder Light fell for Gui Ji's scheme, and miscalculated one thing upon entering the game."

Shen Wu spoke the answer for him: "Navigator Ji Zi is real, while the one who died was Su Zi."

"Correct. Gui Ji knew Ji Zi would definitely be able to return to the Train, and with Su Zi's figure, Gui Ji could completely believe that his daughter would eventually be seduced away by Xuan Ge — that is, by me."

"Heh, can't you be a little modest, blush a bit at least?"

Shen Wu found it somewhat funny; he hadn't expected himself to be this shameless.

Sure enough, Xing Xiao cursing him as scum back then was spot on.

Xuan Ge didn't care; anyway, he'd been scum for more than a day or two.

"Gui Ji is the Train President I have met, once walked to the end with Aki Vili, so he possesses foresight ability, even the power of time."

Xuan Ge finally understood why Gui Ji could single-handedly defend against him.

This Gui Die completely uses time to blur causality.

"Gui Ji used his power while Ji Zi was hospitalized, making the causality on Ji Zi blurry, so the future Xuan Ge could only see the scene of Ji Zi being critically ill."

General Shenwei nodded. The main body's analysis was correct.

If Black Xuan Ge hadn't come, the main body would have eventually fallen into the trap, and then would have pioneered a world line just like Jin Guang.

Black Xuan Ge is the result of a failed rescue; he is also the Monarch of Extinction, Jin Guang, but not the main body. Black Xuan Ge is merely a simulation segment.

"Afterward, Jin Guang was unwilling to accept it. He wanted to reshape the timeline, so he returned to the past to try to set things right. But he had an insurmountable hurdle: the Shuhu Rebellion."

Speaking of this, Xuan Ge sighed.

At this moment, he really wanted to remotely Notify Wei Qing; his Mood wasn't very good, and he wanted to whip Shuhu's corpse for a while.

"Hehe, actually Jin Guang is quite pitiful too."

General Shenwei spoke up to provide Guidance of Causality for the main body's emotions.

"Returning to the past and being single-handedly defended against by his past self caused his past self's Dao heart to shatter, so he went mad."

The matter of saving Bai Hang is set aside for now, but every generation of Xuan Ge completes a causal closure loop with his past self.

And Jin Guang insisted on rewriting it, which could only lead to one result.

His past self and future self fell out.

But this is ultimately something that happened on one timeline; the past self is also oneself, so the twisted Jin Guang became the purest Destruction.

So the wrong path Jin Guang took, subsequent Xuan Ges would never repeat.

Even the matter of liking "big ones" is engraved in the underlying code.

After all, none of them caught Jing Liu; that Regret slowly evolved over time into a Preference for pure beauty with large chests.

"However, Jin Guang is ultimately Jin Guang, not Xuan Ge."

Xuan Ge let out a long breath. He had already figured out how Jin Guang was born, but was still missing the final result.

Is Jin Guang ultimately hunting Xuan Ge, or... seeking a perfect timeline to substitute Xuan Ge?

General Shenwei Perceived that Xuan Ge's gaze was very off, but he just smiled.

He wasn't afraid of the main body before him Devouring him.

After all, Xuan Ge understands Xuan Ge best.

"Scaring oneself?"

"Hehe, Xianyun said I ran around bare-bottomed as a child; this must be your revenge for that look I gave you just now."

The reason Xuan Ge said this was because he was about to achieve Causal Closure.

And once closed, he would become the Little Xuan Ge from five hundred years ago who ran around bare-bottomed.

The reason he would become small was because General Shenwei, a strand of his own causality, was retaliating against him for the grudge of that off gaze just now.
