Chapter 914: [Decay] and [Prosperity], History and Stories

【Decay】 and 【Prosperity】, History and Stories

"Since you know the truth about the Coffin Dweller, you should probably know what happened with the Defeated Blood Final Tomb."

"When this couple was lucky enough to find the Defeated Blood Final Tomb, they happened to encounter the outbreak of the Sighing Sorrow Tide. And more coincidentally, in the Sighing Forest at that time, the 【Decay】 residing in the Final Tomb seemed to be engaged in a new round of faith competition with the quietly infiltrating 【Prosperity】."

"It was under these circumstances that these two 'explorers' were affected by the aftermath of the true god's confrontation and almost became gray slag beside that blood lake."

"But fortunately, in that forest, decay is everything."

"The two people, riddled with holes, lay beside the blood lake, begging bitterly toward the Defeated Blood Final Tomb above their heads, begging their Patron to save their lives. However, seeing their own aura becoming weaker and weaker, these two smart people knew that their begging hadn't moved their Patron."

"At this time, Lin Xi had already given up. He didn't think that he, with a score of over 2,000, could get the Patron's pity with this. He began to despair and thought that everything was just his own wishful thinking."

"At that time, he finally thought of Chun beside him. He looked at her affectionately, and although he didn't say anything, his eyes said it all."

"Perhaps it was such a look, or perhaps Chun's love for Lin Xi had never wavered. Seeing the light in her lover's eyes fading, she squeezed her survival potential frantically, not wanting her lover to die like this, so..."

The electronic sound stopped.

"?" Cheng Shi frowned, looking at Sun Miao who had suddenly stopped typing, and asked suspiciously, "So what?"

"Vice President, is this information of mine, oh no, is this gossip of mine enough to exchange for your information?"

"???"

No, sister, you stop here?

Fine, fine, I see you're crazy for information. When can the love between two people sit at the table with the secrets of the gods?

The corner of Cheng Shi's eye twitched. He didn't say anything, just took out a handful of dice again.

Seeing these dice, Sun Miao's face stiffened directly. Not long after, she began to type unwillingly again.

"She gave Lin Xi a knife."

Hearing this sentence, Cheng Shi not only wasn't surprised at all, but raised his eyebrows and applauded in appreciation.

"I understand. The one who truly guessed 【Decay】's mind wasn't Lin Xi, but Chun."

"I guess she not only gave Lin Xi a knife, but even turned around and sent a big gift to the 【Prosperity】 that was attempting to invade the Sighing Forest, a gift enough to slap 【Decay】 in the face."

"Her oath-breaking wasn't forced, it was voluntary, right?"

"Smart." Sun Miao's face had another slight change. Cheng Shi clearly saw a hint of shock on her face, but in the tone of her typing, these emotions weren't reflected.

"No wonder Zhen Xin is willing to cooperate with you. The School of History welcomes all smart people."

"It's just as you thought. Chun felt that wanting 【Decay】 to pity His followers might not be successful just by dying. After all, His followers are self-mutilating all the time. How many people have hovered on the edge of death without getting His favor? So why could the two of them, who were about to die, get this honor?"

"They were no different from ordinary followers."

"Could it be just because they found the Defeated Blood Final Tomb?"

"No. In the past, coming to the Defeated Blood Final Tomb might have had a chance to attract the Patron's gaze, but now, the timing of their arrival was wrong. They witnessed a faith confrontation between gods, and the main battlefield of this confrontation happened to be 【Decay】's territory."

"【Prosperity】 descended here with a full aggressive posture, no different from slapping 【Decay】 hard in the face."

"Even if this isn't a humiliation, it's definitely not a good reputation. And why would two mortals who saw this scene be able to attract His attention in the moment when their Patron's mood was most gloomy, rather than provoking His anger?"

"It was thinking of these things that Chun thought of a way to separate attention from anger."

"She gave Lin Xi a knife, making the other party's aura weaker and closer to 【Decay】, and then she prayed to the descending 【Prosperity】, begging this invader to save her life, saying she was willing to pay any price to live."

"The following things are not hard to guess."

"【Prosperity】 won't let go of any opportunity to make the universe move toward prosperity. Even if absorbing one follower is just a small step, this step happened in 【Decay】's home. This point was enough to make 【Prosperity】 unable to refuse."

"Thus, Chun broke her oath. In order to let her lover achieve his wish, she pushed Lin Xi to 【Decay】 at the cost of betraying her faith and bearing the curse."

"In her view, in order to punish her, 【Decay】 would definitely use the most cruel method against her, which was to save her lover, letting Lin Xi launch an endless pursuit against her."

"She knew 【Decay】 too well, knowing this was Lin Xi's only chance."

"Facts proved that her plan succeeded."

"The moment she turned to the 【Prosperity】 camp, 【Decay】 bestowed infinite power upon Lin Xi, and then on this battlefield where 【Decay】 and 【Prosperity】 faiths confronted each other, two players of opposing faiths also learned from their Patrons and started fighting!"

"Chun understood 【Decay】, but she didn't seem to understand Lin Xi, because she actually bet that Lin Xi wouldn't truly carry out 【Decay】's revenge after being saved. But facts proved again..."

"Love, in the face of some people's faith, is worthless."

"The moment Lin Xi was saved, he launched an attack on Chun without holding back. His eyes were full of anger and fear, without a shred of love, which made Chun, who had spared no effort to betray her own faith, fall into complete despair and madness."

"And then you saw it. The two of them have been fighting from that time until now."

"..."

Cheng Shi understood. This story was indeed dog-blooded. Anyone who suffered betrayal would probably find it hard to let go. However... he curled his lips: "How do you know so detailedly? Does the School of History also have people on the scene?"

"No. These were all told to us by Chun."

"As the largest information organization, she wanted to use our tentacles to find Lin Xi, so she shared this history with us."

Cheng Shi also guessed it, but he still asked:

"When you collect similar information, will there be a 'Master of Deception' present?"

"For true history, yes;"

"For dog-blooded gossip, no."

"?" Cheng Shi was stunned, "Then how can you be sure that what Chun said is definitely true?"

"Of course I can't be sure." Sun Miao's hands trembled again. She was clearly suppressing her shock, but her face was still expressionless, her behavior and emotional expression being abnormally split, "History needs to be faced squarely, but gossip doesn't. It's enough if it's dog-blooded enough."

"If it's not dog-blooded enough, we will even add oil and vinegar."

"You know, we who record history are the best at doing these things."

"Although seeing the essence from the appearance is not wrong, not everyone is willing to see the essence. People only believe in what they see, so appearance can deceive people. This is also the reason why liars in this era can be rampant."

"Instead of racking our brains to explain some thankless truths to outsiders, it's better to directly show them what they like in unimportant stories."

"For example, gossip. What people like to see is the endless battle between Chun and Lin Xi, the dog-blooded love of their redemption and betrayal. As for what is true and what is false behind this love... no one cares."

"We don't care either, unless declaring one side's position is beneficial to the School of History. At that time, the side beneficial to us is naturally the truth, and the side harmful to us might bear all the faults."

"Thousands of years later, this story we painted becomes the history known to future generations."

"And the history we see at present is the story painted by predecessors."

"This is the inevitability of history, and also the essence of history. Do you think I'm right, Fate Weaver?" ===== CHAPTER 915 =====
