Chapter 1114: Friend and Enemy
Hengwo looked at Aiwass quietly, his posture as elegant and gentle as a lady.
Although her words were clear, her tone was gentle, and her eyes were kind... her words made Aiwas feel a chill in his heart:
"I know why you came to me, snake. I agree. Kill him. Cain will be your food for as long as you need him."
--snake.
That's what I call Aiwass.
Unlike Candle and Scale-Feather Lord, who clearly sided with Aiwass… and even unlike Silver Crown Dragon and Sand Clock, who maintained an ambiguous and neutral stance, Hengwo openly sided with Huan Tiansi. Perhaps because she was skilled in self-mutilation, Hengwo simply considered Aiwass part of Huan Tiansi.
Obviously.
If Aiwass and Huan Tiansi had a conflict and she had the opportunity to intervene... Hengwo would definitely help Huan Tiansi instead of Aiwass, the "snake tail trying to seize the dominant position."
Moreover, Hengwo's indifference towards Xue Tiansi also made Aiwas secretly shocked.
Blood Sky Commander...
Even though he has gone astray now, and even though it was Sister Sasha who gave birth to him... he is essentially the child of Hengwo and the Master of the Banquet!
It was Hengwo who, having descended into Sister Sasha's body and forging a relationship with the feast host, that allowed the "mortal" Sister Sasha to give birth to the son of the Moon and the Dragon. Even the reason Xue Tiansi, in his near-obsessive drive to force his descendants to pursue the path to perfection, was simply to gain Hengwo's attention.
And now Heng, what I mean is... did she just abandon Cain?
——Even if the lickspittle doesn’t die a good death, isn’t this too bad a death?
As if I had heard Aiwass's inner thoughts, Hengwo's tone remained gentle and patient, but without any emotional fluctuations: "Because Cain's birth came from an experiment of mine, and it was also an attempt.
"—Amber isn't a true Celestial God of Samsara, after all. Her resets are limited. Before Amber is exhausted, I need a vessel capable of carrying the power of the Sacred Number Nine. The other Pillar Gods are also doing this... just as Zalwan cultivated the Celestial Gods of Candle and Dawn, and just as he entrusted the power of the Judge of Sin to you.
"Fuxi will ultimately transcend everything and shatter the void. Before his departure, he concealed his divine power and gradually passed his own great achievements to your original body. This was to prevent the Pillar God from changing and causing disasters like the one that occurred when Atlas left. Finding new Pillar Bearers is the duty of the Pillar Gods."
...Zarwan?
Aiwass was stunned for a moment.
Mi Xi knew that it was the name of the Snake Father. Zhaerwan...is this Sizhu's real name?
"And the 'human' race is inherently endowed with the power of transcendence and love. It is Thor's final, most proud... and 'most perfect' creation, and also the first race to bear my 'love.' From the moment of birth, every human being possesses the intertwined forces of beast and love within their hearts, and deep within their souls lies the motivation and power to transcend all status quo.
"I hope that through this method, a truly 'perfect' being will be born among humanity. Perfection—that's the name I gave this new stern. 'Perfection' itself is a 'mistake,' because once perfection is achieved, there's no need to move forward, and there's no longer any reason to transcend 'better.'
"But it's also the best mistake—"
The sacred number nine is sufficient, without having to step into the tenth source river. Therefore, the perfect nine is itself a rebellion and negation of the transcendent eight, and a powerful rejection of the ten of nothingness.
"I see……"
Aiwass murmured, "Perfect Man... is this to create a new Pillar God of the Source River of Error?"
No wonder Hengwo hasn't done any large-scale creation since creating humans. Because her creation isn't over yet—unlike the Beastmaster, who opens a large number of cards to cultivate Gu, Hengwo is clearly the type to meticulously lay out a plan, not opening a second line until the end of one goal... just like a real-time strategy player who doesn't operate two lines at once.
The only problem was that she didn't care much about the only line she was running...at least Aiwass didn't feel that she cared much.
"I failed."
Heng I said frankly.
Her brows drooped, her eyes filled with pity and sorrow. "Because of my 'mistake.' I can't deceive my own heart. I simply needed 'it,' but didn't love 'it.' Therefore, from the very beginning, there was no possibility of a perfect person being born... From that moment on, I gave up my plan. Or perhaps it was the backlash of the source of my 'mistake.'"
——Anyone who attempts to take the wrong path will have to endure a “fatal mistake”.
Whether it's taboo, dusk...
Or maybe Gan Tiansi, who symbolizes natural objects such as mountains and rivers and is anti-civilization;
Or perhaps the Lingbo Tiansi who grants the power of immortality and extracts and imprints memories;
Or perhaps it's the Winter Master, the representative of the dead, who oversees souls and funerals...
The power of the Ninth River is of the "don't touch it if you don't have special abilities" variety. While they usually sleep in a group like Amber, any one of them, completely awake and free, could be capable of a major event. At the very least, their power is undoubtedly three times greater than a calamity like the Advent of the Fallen Angels.
From this point of view, even with the active intervention of a Pillar God-level being, the "perfect man" has not been completed... This is probably because the source of "error" has triggered the power of error. And this plan is too fragile to withstand "error" and enter eternity.
As for Hengwo, she had her own issues that needed to be resolved urgently.
She didn't recruit many co-dancers because she was in a business of turning back—there was no hope for the First Source River, which meant she would die here sooner or later. Her apostles would also die. Heng, I don't want to cause trouble for others... It's like when you have a terminal illness, you don't want to marry your lover, so as not to drag them down for the rest of their lives.
This is a kind of love, and it is a very pure love.
"I have my own things to do."
Hengwo said one last thing and withdrew from Cardinal Hecate. "If you need me, you can always call on me. I will always pay attention to your prayers, snake."
When that strange feeling faded, Aiwass knew that Heng I had left in a hurry. Heng I was a taciturn god. What she said to Aiwass today must have exceeded the total amount of words she had spoken in the past ten or even several decades.
The original goal was achieved: Aiwass could attack Xue Tiansi without any worries about "beating the young ones and then the old ones coming" - his old ones had already been persuaded by Aiwass in advance, and they might even turn around and beat up their own children.
Aiwass inexplicably felt like the head teacher had asked him to call the parents...
Hengwo is undoubtedly a very busy man - from the perspective of fighting against nothingness, Hengwo's solo dance may be just to "reach the sky".
Even in this situation, she was willing to come in person to help Aiwass...but Aiwass didn't feel very happy.
Because it was obvious that Hengwo and Huantiansi had a very good relationship and a very high level of trust. So much so that the "love" extended to everyone, and this relationship even extended to Aiwass.
This also means that if Aiwass and Huantiansi are bound to fight in the future...
Then it is very likely that Heng and I will be opposite him.
Update completed meow.
Tomorrow I will start to attack the Blood Sky Division——
My daily routine has almost come full circle. I feel like I can wake up at three or four in the morning today, which is very close to my daily routine in the world of the living!
This move is called Nine Yin Transformation into Nine Yang!
