Benefactor, listen to my quibbling

"Gulp......"

Cheng Shi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his expression extremely stiff.

The cold sweat on his forehead flowed down like a waterfall, and it wasn't until he felt the slight saltiness of the sweat at the corner of his mouth that he gathered the courage to reply:

"Benefactor, listen to my quibbling—no, listen to my explanation!"

Cheng Shi shivered, his brain spinning rapidly. He was thinking about how he could escape the judgment of 【Fate】, after all, he didn't want to be blown into holes like the blind man just now.

But he couldn't think of a set of rhetoric to "wash white" himself in the current situation, because everything that happened today was not transferred by his will. To put it bluntly, he was also a "victim."

So Cheng Shi stalled. He looked at those increasingly cold eyes, nervous and helpless.

*Benefactor, oh benefactor, if you were as easy to talk to as the God of Joy, I...... *

*Wait! *

*The God of Joy!? *

*Right! The God of Joy is right! *

Cheng Shi was stunned, suddenly thinking of the sentence the God of Joy said when he saw Him. He said, "As a walker of 【Nothingness】, you must look at everything from the perspective of 【Nothingness】." This sentence was like a head-on blow that awakened Cheng Shi, making him suddenly straighten his waist and have confidence.

He looked at those cold eyes and cleared his throat, arguing with reason:

"Benefactor, I think I don't need too much explanation for you to know everything today. The fault is not mine.

Of course, I am also wrong. My biggest mistake is to mistakenly think that you want to approach 【Foolishness】 and push the fusion of 【Fate】 and 【Foolishness】.

Now it seems I was wrong, very wrong. I didn't understand your true intention until now. It turns out you have always wanted to merge with 【Existence】, with 【Time】.

You used the attitude of approaching 【Chaos】 to fool everyone in the universe, making them mistakenly think that 【Nothingness】 is looking for something. But 【Nothingness】 is nothingness. It doesn't need to approach anyone, nor does it need to accept anyone, because 【Nothingness】 is meaningless.

But not everything under this universe is meaningless. At least 【Existence】 still insists that this universe is meaningful. So you chose 【Existence】 and agreed to the fusion with 【Time】. Isn't this reminding me:

【Existence】 is slowly moving toward 【Nothingness】?

If even the opposite of 【Nothingness】 has stepped on the path of 【Nothingness】, then isn't this 【Nothingness】 prosperous age of the universe exactly as you wish?"

As he spoke, Cheng Shi lowered his head devoutly and shouted loudly: "Everything returns to nothingness!"

"......"

These words were no longer simple quibbling. The Clown was even "forcing the palace" with words, "splashing dirty water" on his benefactor and wearing a high hat, distorting everything the God of Joy pushed today into 【Fate】's original will, and using this to belittle 【Existence】 and elevate 【Nothingness】.

This hand was very dirty, so dirty that if his other benefactor wasn't 【Time】, he might have been judged for blasphemy.

But it just so happened that 【Time】 had no time, so the Clown could stabilize 【Fate】 without any scruples.

He didn't know if his quibbling was useful, but judging by the wind in the surrounding void, it seemed...... a bit useful?

The wild wind from nothingness did weaken, but the coldness in those eyes remained undiminished. He stared at Cheng Shi for a long time and finally said coldly:

"【Nothingness】 should not have 【Existence】, and 【Nothingness】 does not need to prove anything through the approach of 【Existence】.

You are stained with too much of His breath, but in the end, one sentence you said is right.

Everything will eventually return to nothingness.

Cheng, Shi......

Although you are heading toward the established, there are more and more changes in the established. If one day you are lost in the changes, can you, still find the established path?"

Cheng Shi blurted out without thinking: "Benefactor, I can't be lost."

"Heh, arrogant words.

I cannot assert who wins the game with 【Time】, but you can be certain that you will not be affected by changes. I see you are too influenced by Him."

"......" Cheng Shi was a bit unconvinced. He looked up and said, "Benefactor, since change and established are both your authorities, why can I only walk on the established path instead of the path of change?"

【Fate】 stalled, seemingly not expecting Cheng Shi to ask this question. He glanced at his follower casually and still said coldly:

"Change is in me, established is related to 【Him】.

I have never talked to you about 【Origin】, but I know you already know of 【Him】's existence.

He...... no one knows His thoughts. Perhaps even He doesn't understand what He is doing. You are deeply influenced by Him and have misunderstandings about 【Origin】. I will not correct these cognitions, because as long as you walk on the established path, you will gradually understand 【Him】, worship 【Him】, and approach 【Him】.

Because that...... is the true nothingness!"

"......"

To tell the truth, Cheng Shi was very surprised to hear the name 【Origin】 in 【Fate】's mouth, but his benefactor's attitude made him a bit scared.

According to what the God of Joy said, that was clearly an unknown existence that no one knew, but why did 【Fate】 have such persistent worship and respect for 【Him】?

Just because 【He】 bestowed divine names and authority?

Then what is the difference between His position and those Worship God Societies and Descent Factions in reality?

Cheng Shi was shocked, Cheng Shi was afraid. He didn't dare to speak casually in this regard, fearing that his remarks would break the current "quietness" and let himself fall into an absolute faith quagmire.

So he was silent, but still made a look of "repentance."

Seeing this, the coldness in those cold eyes dissipated slightly. He sighed and said:

"The established will eventually be established. The era will prove He is wrong.

As for the fusion with 【Existence】......

Forget it, no matter what agreement 【Time】 reached with Him, they will only witness the arrival of the established in you.

【Time】's power can also help you resist some hostility from deduction.

I found that 【Time】 is also changing. He is probably no longer the 【Existence】 I imagined. As for what influence He received, I will find out.

As for you......"

A trace of complexity flashed in those eyes, and then the eyes became cold again.

"The crime of blasphemy is unforgivable. Today, a small punishment is given as a reminder."

As he spoke, several wild winds of nothingness rushed toward Cheng Shi without saying a word, throwing the Clown high, and once again staged the same tragedy as just now in 【Deception】's hands.

Cheng Shi was about to vomit, but just when he was dizzy, those eyes frowned slightly and snorted coldly in a voice that mortals couldn't hear:

"【Time】's power cycles back and forth, easily pulling 【Fate】's power to entangle and create misfortune, unless this 【Time】's power is shaken away, letting it merge with 【Fate】 segment by segment...... otherwise fusion is never true fusion.

He is quite thoughtful, even doing this step in advance.

But...... why is He so understanding of 【Fate】, understanding of 【Time】?"

As soon as the words fell, those eyes disappeared, and the wild wind of nothingness stopped suddenly, throwing the Clown to the ground.

Cheng Shi vomited, even vomiting stomach acid, until the entire void was silent again, only then did he realize that his benefactor seemed to have accepted the faith fusion so plainly.

*No, it's over? *

*He...... figured it out? *

*Hiss——*

*This is not like Him. *

Cheng Shi blinked, didn't figure it out, but this didn't prevent him from supporting himself to pat a flattery first.

"Praise be to 【Fate】, praise be to tolerance, praise be to 【Nothingness】!"

Seeing no response in the void, Cheng Shi felt slightly relieved. He first gave himself a healing spell, and then pulled up the blind man who had fainted with a sobering spell.

Looking at this truly pitiful 【Fate】 chosen one, Cheng Shi just wanted to ask what happened to her, when he saw the blind man seem to have made some determination, raised her head, grabbed his hand, and "looked" at him:

"Cheng Shi, can I trust you?"

"???"

Cheng Shi was dumbfounded. *No, sister, how did you become the guest who became the host? * ===== CHAPTER 747 =====
