"You know, the world will not be at peace forever. War, plague, famine, decay, one after another have come knocking."

"His people, in their despair, saw his relatives who were neither old nor sick. Everyone wanted to live forever, and no one wanted to be sick."

Si Yan paused for a moment, then asked, "And then?"

“Grandson, the greed of his people is growing infinitely. They have plotted against their own god. They asked him for his flesh and blood. He could not bear to see his people suffer, so he cut off his own flesh and let his blood flow, and gave it to them. The kind and simple man used his own flesh and blood to quell one disaster after another.”

"Later, he realized that he couldn't stop it."

Si Yan paused abruptly. Having experienced the inheritance of the Beast God, she could easily understand what the gecko was saying.

"When we need you, you are a god. When we need you even more, you may just be a panacea or a piece of immortal flesh."

Si Yan clenched her fists involuntarily, her heart pounding with tension as the story unfolded.

What was his fate?

The gecko lowered its eyes. "He didn't die, but his parents, brothers and sisters, queen and three children, all died."

"His most beloved people were devoured by the people he had always protected. Unable to devour the gods, they ate their relatives who had eaten the flesh and blood of the gods."

For some reason, Si Yan felt an overwhelming sense of sorrow. She asked urgently, "And then? I can't believe that's the end!"

The gecko looked at Si Yan and said heavily, "This god, he's gone mad."

"He destroyed the world he had loved for so many years. He turned his world into a graveyard for the people he loved."

“Grandson, you must know that the world is not all bad people; there are actually many, many innocent people as well.”

"In the final analysis..."

Si Yan, Gecko: "God is wrong, God's naivety is wrong."

The gecko looked up at the blue sky above it.

Then he lowered his head.

"Since then, when the Pantheon selects new gods, kindness remains one of the requirements, but naivety is not acceptable."

"As a god, one must see clearly, be able to assess the situation, know how to use one's own power, and also know how to distinguish between good and bad."

"You are very good."

The gecko whispered, "You can feel other people's pain. You are kind at heart. You are not naive; if someone bullies you, you will definitely fight back."
