"Soon, your existence will be erased, too. However, since I used a diluted potion, I'm not sure if even a trace of you will remain."
Wei Shengfan stroked his bangs. "But, it doesn't matter. When a person's memory is out of sync with the surroundings, they often don't suspect that the memories of those around them are distorted, but rather that there's something wrong with their own brain. Even if there are people who still remember you, as long as you keep manipulating them and make them suppress their suspicions, there will be no opposition.
Wei Shengfan tilted his head slightly. "If someone truly can't accept this, can't accept having their edges smoothed out, can't accept having their world and values gradually tainted by other beings, and still insists on being themselves, they'll be ostracized by everyone—then, even if they firmly believe there's nothing wrong with their brains, I can still throw them into a mental hospital—"
Chu Shangli pondered why, in his previous life, after Wei Shengfan was killed by Bai Xiaoqian, the influence of the Wei Sheng family disappeared so quickly.
Why does Bai Xiaoqian's weapon look so familiar?
Did Bai Xiaoqian actually take the weapon from him at that time?
Does this mean that Bai Xiaoqian knew from the beginning that Wei Shengfan was carrying a weapon?
"Am I a dead person in your eyes now?"
"No, not really—in my eyes, you're not a dead person, but a non-existent person—death and non-existence are completely different concepts. Death is the state of a person existing in this world, going from birth to death—but, since non-existent people don't have their 'living' state recorded, of course, death is completely meaningless—"
Wei Shengfan corrected Chu Shangli with a smile.
“…”
Chu Shangli wanted to laugh, but found that it took a lot of effort for him to smile.
She leaned her back against the wall and took two breaths.
"I see—" Chu Shangli said dimly, "Then, even if you say something to a non-existent person, it's the same as talking to a tree hole, right?"
"Hmm? What do you want to hear? The king has donkey ears?"
"What I want to know is what would happen if one's existence were erased? How would the things that person did, the traces of their existence, change?"
"If it's irrelevant, it will disappear. If it's like the live broadcast you did before, it will be transformed into a TV show or someone else's image. The result will also change accordingly."
Chu Shangli was silent for a moment, then said, "Since you remember this outcome, you must also—remember the people you erased before?"
"Perhaps it's a curse." Wei Shengfan shrugged. "But I don't care. Curses and the like, as long as you don't take them to heart, don't exist. So I can answer you very frankly about this question. That's right. The only thing is that those who eliminate others will never forget anything."
"I see……"
Chu Shangli bit her lip and stretched out her hand into the air.
"Hmm? You're quite delusional, aren't you? There are actually people in reality who reach out to their fantasies."
Wei Shengfan laughed in a mocking tone.
"But it's okay this way. Your foolish look will always be engraved in my mind, which will let me know that the master who can defeat Gong Yi Tianhe is not that powerful after all - he is still just made of fragile paper -"
Chu Shangli pressed "LORD" amid his laughter.
