Chapter 46 A New Direction

"Open for business?"

Zhao Si, who was carefully studying the differences between this round of simulation and the previous one, was stunned when she saw this choice:

"This kid...is he ruined by this?"

Zhao Si had already verified that each option in this simulation was not given randomly; it was not deliberately going to extremes, but rather reflecting the protagonist's own thoughts.

For example, in the first round of simulation, the protagonist was just an immature dragon with an immature mind, always having wild thoughts, so the options given to Zhao Si were very absurd, such as openly making outrageous remarks like "I suggest being a dog for the human race".

In the second round of simulation, because the second round lasts much longer than the first round, the protagonist's mind matures as he gets older, and the options provided to Zhao Si gradually become more normal.

In the end, he was even able to make his own independent choices on many important matters without the player's intervention, such as self-destructing twice without consulting Zhao Si.

This undoubtedly reflects his growth.

Zhao Si even felt quite gratified by this, with a strange sense of relief, as if she had finally raised her son to adulthood after more than ten years of raising him...

But now it seems that Jin Bing's third simulation is a bit off. Why did it become so extreme again?

One option is to retrace the path of the Heavenly Emperor from his previous life, but try to avoid the pitfalls he encountered before; this is a positive option.

The other option is surprisingly the purely negative one: opening up.

"Could it be because he suffered such a crushing defeat in his past life that he felt useless, thus giving rise to a carefree attitude?"

After thinking it over, Zhao realized that given his urgent need to gain powerful strength to drive out the demon race on the remnants of the primordial world, this was definitely not the option he should choose.

However, the other seemingly positive option is even more unacceptable!

"What's the point of repeating the Heavenly Emperor's path? The fundamental problem lies with the Heavenly Dao itself. If we can't resolve the issue of the Heavenly Dao's injustice, then we'll only repeat the same mistakes. Wouldn't the third round have been a waste?"

After some hesitation, Zhao Si paused, ultimately choosing only the most negative option:

"Choose B, let's get started!"

Who cares? At worst, I'll just die twice and then write my own strategy!

[You chose option B. The Heavenly Court and all that are meaningless. What's the point of becoming the Heavenly Emperor? I'm going to abandon everything and start doing nothing!]

The memory of your crushing defeat in your past life fills you with pessimism about the positive and progressive Heavenly Court system. Therefore, instead of immediately embarking on a new path of cultivation, you choose to remain an ordinary, unremarkable dragon prince, just like in your first life.

As for your purpose, it's naturally to avoid repeating the mistakes of your past life. You want to use a different perspective and a different method to deal with the inevitable conflict between demons and humans...

"Huh? Isn't it just a purely open-air display?"

After reading these two descriptions, Zhao Si suddenly realized that he might have been wrong. Jin Bing, who had been reborn for the third time, had not been discouraged. He did not intend to start a business at all, but only wanted to use this route to achieve another idea of ​​his!

"Then I'd like to see what your other idea for breaking this deadlock is..."

Zhao Si was very curious: under these conditions, what other options did Jin Bing have?

[Your sudden change of heart had an immediate effect, because you were too ordinary. Your adoptive parents naturally played their usual role, showing no concern for you as if you were dispensable, and didn't even give you a name. The name "Jin Bing," which had been with you for over a dozen years, was no longer meant for you this time...]

[You've grown up day by day, and your silly brother is still as close to you as he was in your previous two lives; the two brothers talk about everything.]

As the conversation progressed, the topic inevitably veered towards the administration of the Heavenly Court. After all, having spent over a dozen years within the system in your previous life and even served as a legitimate Heavenly Emperor, and after a couple of ounces of celestial wine, you couldn't help but start discussing politics...

"The Wu tribe has an ancient and powerful bloodline, yet it is bullied by the Heavenly Court simply because of its low level of civilization. Every Wu person is born as expendable material for war, and promotion is extremely difficult. The Wu tribe is suffering immensely, and sooner or later, a spark will ignite a cataclysmic change!"

[Brother idiot: ...]

"The Crystal Palace of the East Sea is full of bears; these old fogies are all opportunists, so cowardly they've lost all their spirit! Just skeletons in a tomb!"

[Brother 250: ... (He moved his seat a little further away from you)]

[The Heavenly Court? A bunch of good-for-nothings. If I become the Heavenly Emperor someday, I'll send the Heavenly Incense Array to pierce Emperor Jun's heart...]

[Brother idiot: Please, please stop clicking!!!]

[Your brother is telling you very seriously that these words can only be spoken to him. Not even Father or Mother can be told, or there will be great disaster!]

You know perfectly well what's going on, but you just want to complain. As for your parents... they know how to cut ties; you've experienced that before.

"So, if you care so much about the affairs of the primordial world, why don't you go to school in Heaven?"

[The silly older brother encouraged him: "I heard that there's a 'Talent Cultivation Class' in Heaven, where students have the opportunity to directly become celestial officials in the future. You're so good at keyboards, why don't you go and put your ambitions to use?"]

You scoff: "Celestial Official? So what if he becomes the Heavenly Emperor? He still can't change anything..."

[Brother 250: ...Why does this sound like you actually fought the Heavenly Emperor...?]

"So what do you want to do in the future?"

[Brother 250 is very curious about your thoughts.]

"I'll just coast along for now, and when things change, I'll make my move!" you replied earnestly.

[Brother idiot: ...]

[And so, you lived a carefree life in the Golden Dragon King's Palace for quite some time, spending your days drinking and having fun with your older brothers and sisters, living a truly idyllic life—a typical playboy.]

[Even your father, who didn't care much about you, scolded you for deliberately giving up on yourself, telling you to be more ambitious. Of course, you readily agreed, but in reality, you continued your life of debauchery.]

Until that day...

"Time's almost up."

[Another day of bros' drinking session. You were all tipsy when you said something completely nonsensical, and then, under the speechless gaze of your clueless brother, you fell asleep...]

The next day, contrary to your usual self, you dressed neatly and seriously asked your father for permission to travel and study. You wanted to go to the wilderness to learn useful knowledge.

[Father: ?]

Has the sun risen in the west?

He hesitated for a long time, perhaps because he couldn't bear to see your decadent life at home any longer. So, defying the rule that "royal family members are not allowed to leave the palace," he made an exception and allowed you to travel and study. Anyway, the security in the prehistoric world is pretty good, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

You have successfully stepped out of the Golden Dragon Clan's gates!

As for why you chose this exact moment to leave, it's because you've already calculated the date. Not long after, Nuwa, the first of the Six Primordial Sages to achieve sainthood, will begin creating humans…

[The place where Nuwa created humans is Shouyang Mountain in the Eastern Wilderness, the former stronghold of the human race. You know the route here better than anyone, so you head straight for the place where your dream began without stopping.]

As the familiar scenery grows, you draw ever closer to your destination... Finally, you spot the goddess nestled beneath the towering mountains in the distance!

At this moment, the beautiful and kind-hearted girl is sculpting one clay figure after another. She seems to be endlessly enjoying this seemingly childish game, and you can tell at a glance that she is in a state of enlightenment, completely absorbed in sculpting the clay, her mind elsewhere.

As you drew closer, Nuwa looked up at you in bewilderment. She was a kind and benevolent primordial goddess, so instead of driving you away, she smiled and asked, "What is it you need?"

Looking at the kind goddess, and watching the little clay figures she molds, you know that a turning point in your destiny is just around the corner. To completely resolve the future conflict between demons and humans, you must do something!

So, what do you choose?

[A: With a roar, he lunges at the clay figure, addressing the root of the conflict. If humanity had never existed in the first place, there would be no conflict between demons and humans! B: He reveals his identity, telling Nuwa everything and pleading with her not to let the primordial world be stained with unnecessary bloodshed!]
