Chapter 1935: Do Not Gamble on Human Nature

"Never gamble on human nature, because human nature cannot withstand scrutiny. Once a dragon slayer obtains the treasure, they will become the very evil dragon they once slew; this is an eternal, unchanging principle."

"So your true purpose is to have him hand over the Holy Grail as an exchange of interests? Are you afraid that if he possesses both the Holy Grail and the Holy Staff, he will become like Ivan?"

"Yes, human desire is endless. When a person controls too many things, these things will exceed their capacity." Chen Yu said with a chuckle, "The exchange I proposed is for him to hand over the Holy Grail."

"I will keep it for him temporarily. If he has a need, he can come to me directly, but if he wants to use the Holy Grail to do things he shouldn't, I will not agree."

"Understood." Tang Qing felt relieved immediately, "I was just saying, you aren't the type of person who views interests as all-important. I'm sorry."

"Ha, there's nothing to be sorry about. Actually, it's very hard to be a hero in this world because many things will be misunderstood by others." Chen Yu smiled slightly, "So this doesn't count as a grievance."

"Will Dewen agree to hand the Holy Grail to you? After all, he isn't the type of person with much Spiritual Light; he might not understand your intentions." Tang Qing asked again.

"He will, because he is someone who wants to accomplish great things. I can easily obtain the Holy Staff for him, but he needs to exchange it with the Holy Grail." Chen Yu said, "I believe he will come to find me very soon."

"That's good. Sigh, the human heart in this world is truly too complex." Tang Qing shook her head.

"When people are born into this world, they will face all sorts of things; this is something no one can escape." Chen Yu said, "So if you can still live the life of an ordinary person now, then be grateful."

"It is worth being grateful." Tang Qing smiled slightly, "If there are no special circumstances, I would rather it continue like this forever."

"You don't seem worried about the world ending at all?" Chen Yu tilted his head and glanced at Tang Qing.

"What should I be worried about?" Tang Qing had an expression of taking it for granted, "I am just an ordinary person now. Whether the world ends or the universe ends, it has nothing to do with me."

"I am more worried about whether my own life is rich enough, and concerned about what kind of boyfriend I will find in the future."

"Haha, right, that is the life of an ordinary person—caring about the things around you, and the world ending has nothing to do with you." Chen Yu laughed.

"By the way, what do you think of Dewen?" Tang Qing changed the subject, "Listening to what he said, he is currently worried sick for the future of the Pope."

"As of now, he is a decent person." Chen Yu smiled, "And among the Pope, he is the most capable of controlling Ivan."

"They must be fighting openly and secretly between them right now. If it weren't for him controlling the Lord of the Pope, I'm afraid the world would have already fallen by now, right?"

"Then are you worried that he will not keep his original intention?" Tang Qing asked.

"When a person possesses too much, they often forget their original intention; this is an eternal, unchanging truth." Chen Yu said, "Never overestimate human nature."

"That makes sense." Tang Qing nodded.

"We've been chatting for so long, do you have something you need me for?" Chen Yu only then remembered that Tang Qing had run over from Milan Street, so she must have had a reason.

"I heard you encountered a Werewolf?"

Tang Qing raised her head to look at Chen Yu, carrying a questioning gaze.

"That's right, I did encounter a Werewolf, why?" Chen Yu looked at her curious gaze, feeling somewhat puzzled.

"Nothing, I just wanted to understand these legendary things. Is it true that they transform into wolves on the night of the full moon?" Tang Qing's curious gaze grew more intense.

"I think you have a certain misunderstanding about Werewolves." Chen Yu gave a wry smile and said, "First, they transform from a human form into a Werewolf form; they do not turn into wolves."

"Second, they don't need the night of the full moon to become Werewolves; they can transform into Werewolves anytime, anywhere. The Werewolf's power is just stronger on the night of the full moon."

"Ah, so that's how it is?" Tang Qing suddenly realized. She nodded and said, "It seems I had a certain misunderstanding about the legendary Werewolves."

"Since it's a legend, it was fabricated by the world. Perhaps there is some basis, but believe me, these bases are not very reliable." Chen Yu smiled, "If you want to understand, I can take you to a place where there are Werewolves."

"Really?" A glimmer of excitement appeared in Tang Qing's eyes.

"You like seeking thrills?" Chen Yu felt a bit of a headache. These girls, isn't it good to live their lives peacefully and steadily? Why must they go and seek thrills?

"That's not it. I believe that regarding unknown things, many people would hold an attitude of curiosity, right?" Tang Qing smiled sweetly.

District 55, Vampire Bar.

"This is the place you wanted to bring me? Aren't we meeting a Werewolf? Why is the name of this bar 'Vampire Bar'?" Tang Qing asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Because the owner who opened this bar is someone who half-possesses Werewolf blood. You will find the Blood Clan here, and you will also find Werewolves." Chen Yu smiled, "It belongs to a neutral zone, not mixed up in the struggles between the two clans."

"So that's it. No wonder. I heard in legends that the Blood Clan and the Werewolf Clan are mortal enemies. When the two sides meet, they are mortal enemies; unless they kill the other party, they will fight to the death." Tang Qing suddenly realized.

"Where did you hear these things?" Chen Yu asked.

"I saw them in some Western fantasy novels." Tang Qing said with a smile, "I always thought these two types of creatures only existed in legends, but I didn't expect that both sides actually exist in reality."

"You haven't come into contact with them before, have you?" Chen Yu asked.

"I haven't. Just kidding, these are Dark Creatures! If I had come into contact with them, would I still be alive?" Tang Qing shook her head.

"Dark Creatures are not as terrifying as you imagine. Although most Dark Creatures are extremely ferocious, you occasionally encounter some that are like humans, though the probability is very low." Chen Yu said with a smile.

"I hadn't encountered them before, but after getting to know you, many things around me have changed." Tang Qing glanced at Chen Yu, "Is it you who changed my life?"

"It's not that I changed your life, but the butterfly effect." Chen Yu explained, "For example, I am a Cultivator, and you are an ordinary person."

"Originally, your life was the same as most ordinary people, but because of my appearance, the aura around you changed. This is the butterfly effect. Even if I leave in the future, your life will have changed because of my arrival. Understand?"
