Ye Tiancheng needed to do what he had to do, so he had no harsh requirements for the external environment, only needing a certain style.
"This is far from meeting his needs, nor does it reach his expectations. At this moment, his depression is beyond words. What others imagine often turns into demonic things in his heart. His outlook on the future relies solely on others, which is not advisable."
Watching Ye Tiancheng's retreating back, his five elder sisters said.
"We are the people he relies on the most, so whatever we do must conform to the current requirements and interests. Otherwise, what face would we have to see him?" Sister Lin concluded.
"But do you truly wish for him to be like this? I worry that once he relies on integrity, it will be difficult for him to progress." Sister Si's face showed a worried expression. She didn't understand Ye Tiancheng as Su Mingxian did, but after these outrageous events, her understanding of Ye Tiancheng had deepened.
Ye Tiancheng left. He hadn't finished what he wanted to do before he left, leaving behind a mess.
"You are truly detestable. Leaving without finishing, how willful! You're really capricious." The system was very confused by Ye Tiancheng's act of simply walking away. Although it resided within his body, it didn't understand what this fellow was thinking.
"I am me, a different kind of firework."
Recalling this most popular phrase from his previous life, it slipped out of his mouth.
"Get lost!"
Thinking of his idea, he really wanted to kick him into the sea and have him swallowed by a shark to vent his anger. The more he talked to this guy, the angrier he became, and the angrier he got, the happier this guy seemed. The journey was a very boring thing, and having someone to talk and joke with also helped pass the time, which was why this guy would say such nonsensical things. He was bored, so he found these pointless words to say. In fact, he knew that leaving so abruptly was a very inhumane act.
But for the sake of his dreams, and for the things he had to do quickly, he had to be ruthless. Nothing in this world was perfect; there were always regrets left in the heart.
"Traveling to the cultivation continent is a very dangerous thing. 99% of people fail and die on the traversal formations. You need to be mentally prepared. If you get there and just walk away, abandoning it halfway."
"Once you reach the isolation wall, you have no choice but to move forward."
Ye Tiancheng smiled and said.
"So what. There's one more thing you mustn't forget: Xiao Ran has transformed into my demon, and he has always been not far from you. He might attack you when you're not prepared. I'm worried you'll die carelessly without preparation. If you die,"
At this point, there was nothing more to say, and no way to change the subject.
Letting things flow naturally, like a boat drifting on the sea, following the waves.
"You are truly incorrigible. Your 'salted fish' mentality is once again influencing your actions."
Seeing his thoughts, the system couldn't help but worry for him. Such actions would eventually harm himself and others. Yet, this guy didn't think that far ahead. After all, many things had surpassed his imagination, his cognition, and his feelings. Some things would inevitably drift away from him, and no matter how much effort he put in, it would all be in vain.
This was destiny, something that could not be changed. If he wanted to change it, he would have to pay a much greater price and effort, and it seemed he could no longer bear these costs. Repeating the same fate, bearing the same sorrow, he had unspeakable hardships in his heart.
"Actually, as long as you live well, you don't need to be so tired. Thinking too much will only make you more miserable. Living carefree is the best state."
It had to be said that people sometimes needed an "Ah Q spirit" to numb themselves. This was how he thought and acted. No matter how many times he returned, he would keep repeating the same mistake.
People must always understand their starting point.
"Having made too many mistakes, it's ultimately impossible to go back to the past."
He laughed at this, a very strange laugh. Others always thought of ways to become mature and brave, but his childish thoughts always gave him a headache, and he had paid too much for these things. He didn't want too much trouble. One day, he would be constantly toiling and repeating foolish things for those baseless matters.
"It's truly unfair!"
"Nothing is certain. If you want to change your destiny, you must pay a heavier price to create a universe. This is the ultimate king."
"I've always had a question: where do you come from? Why did you choose me, a 'salted fish', as your host?"
"No comment..."
When he said this, he didn't know how to answer Ye Tiancheng. He could only express his meaning with such vague words. The sound, like golden tears, seemed to pierce through the night, bringing everything before Ye Tiancheng's eyes. He said with a half-smile,
"I think I understand, and yet I don't."
"So you should truly understand and comprehend, don't be ambiguous."
The two chatted and joked, bickering as they reached the border. This world had four continents, divided into four sections by an isolation wall. There were also five large oceans, known as the Five Oceans.
"I see the isolation wall."
A happy expression appeared on Ye Tiancheng's face, as if he were a child seeing candy. The system thought he was an idiot. Many people saw the isolation wall as if facing a formidable enemy, but he felt relaxed.
This was something it could not understand or comprehend.
"Don't worry about me. Immortals have their own clever plans. Wherever there is danger, there is always a glimmer of hope. I will make a brief stop here."
A relieved smile appeared on Ye Tiancheng's face. His smile seemed like a force that could break through all evil in the world.
Without too many constraints, roaming freely between heaven and earth, doing whatever he pleased, this was happiness for Ye Tiancheng.
"Everyone who wants to achieve something or become a towering figure will abandon all worldly constraints. Without these fetters, you will fly higher and farther."
Ye Tiancheng gazed at the isolation wall, exclaiming excitedly,
"If everyone thought like you, this world would be in chaos."
"If this world is in chaos, with demons dancing wildly, how many heroes would be forged? In times of peace, there are no heroes; they are all useless fellows."
Frankly, Ye Tiancheng hated times of peace. The more chaotic the world, the more fun he found it.
Because in a chaotic world, killing required no moral condemnation. Killing was too casual and too easy. In that era, human lives were as cheap as grass.
"Your way of thinking is too dangerous. If you possessed great power, this world would be irrevocably ruined by you."
"In your eyes, I am truly a great demon."
"Don't you think so?"
The system had been with Ye Tiancheng for more than a day or two. It knew the darkness hidden in his heart. Innately, as long as there were triggering factors, he would turn into a devil. If he continued like this, one day he would be betrayed by everyone and become like King Zhou, an object of public condemnation.
Existing with him, it did not wish for him to become this way. Everyone is born good, but through the baptism of different societal elements, they become evil, good, or neutral.
Everyone plays different roles in this world, striving to find more benefits for survival.
"Everyone understands big principles, but who actually follows them? Aren't the things everyone does for themselves? To put it bluntly, the grand principles they mouth are the words of hypocrites. In reality, if it weren't for themselves, why would they do such strange things?"
