Bai Wujie's words left Oga speechless—he didn't really know how to evaluate Hell's actions either; avoiding Lan Tongtong's problem and creating an autumn only made the first man look even worse...

"Wu Nan and I will adhere to our principle of neutrality. Whatever the outcome of your struggle for supremacy, we will not interfere... For Wu Nan, distancing himself from you now may not be a bad thing..."

Bai Wujie said calmly, without saying anything more, he already knew about Lan Meng's conspiracy and plan!

Lan Meng will contact the Lion Society to launch a surprise attack on the strongest Hell, divide up Heaven, and then go on to conquer the world!

Of course, neither Lan Meng nor Tiandao Xiongshi have such simple thoughts.

It's likely that each of them was fighting with the mindset of completely annihilating all their enemies in the day's battle!

This is an unbreakable deadlock. Even if we tell Hell Blue Dream and Heavenly Dao about their alliance now, it won't change this damned situation.

After all, the Heavenly Kingdom's so-called strength is only based on the fact that national power is as fragile as paper to the strong.

However, Hell's inherent nature and wisdom destined it to never be chosen as a partner by either side.

Because a person who is almost perfect and has no weaknesses can only be an enemy, not a friend!

If negotiating with a tiger for its skin can be seen as courting death, then cooperating with a dragon is even more of a recipe for disaster.

"Then, as an outsider, I shouldn't stay here too long. Brother Lanmeng, Mr. Oga, I wish you both a speedy fulfillment of your dreams."

With a wicked laugh, Bai Wujie opened a spatial rift and vanished instantly. After taking one last look at Lan Meng, Oga also silently left.

When Lan Meng was left all alone, he looked at the destroyed world before him... and his angelic face instantly turned hideous and ugly!

"Damn it, you bunch of stupid fools, you only deserve to be played with by me, Lanmeng!"

55. Takeo’s sorrow

Moon

Seven years ago, after Bai Wujie used his immense power to seal the Sea Tiger couple on this planet, this satellite of Earth, which is most familiar to humankind, has stopped orbiting.

It is no longer pulled by Earth's gravity, but slowly rotates along with Earth's rotation...

However, it was not captured by Earth's gravity and crashed into Earth because it stopped rotating.

It merely follows the Earth's movement with some incomprehensible force, without revolving around the Earth...

The entire desolate satellite seemed to be frozen in the river of time.

After the initial panic, humanity gradually got used to this fact... except for people outside the Eastern Hemisphere, they have to accept the regret of never being able to see the moon at night.

Before the stone statues of Haihu and Guanyue Tong, Wu Nan gently landed and looked at his parents trapped in the seal. His lips moved slightly as he sat down cross-legged.

In fact, he has always harbored hatred for Bai Wujie all these years!

Regardless of his motives, Bai Wujie had indeed forced him to separate from his parents, and he might never have the chance to see them again in this lifetime.

But so what if he hates him? It won't affect Bai Wunan's respect and love for this eccentric but knowledgeable adoptive father who raised Wunan single-handedly.

Humans are such complex beings; love and hate are never opposites. They always coexist, the spiral of love and hate forever intertwined.

"Father... what should I do?"

Wu Nan stared at his father's stone statue for a long time before finally speaking in a low voice...

"For seven years, I have been trying to repair the relationship between my eldest and second eldest brothers, but I still failed... Their struggle was perhaps unstoppable."

"Father, if you were here, what would you have done? What methods would you have used to stop the first and second sons from fighting?"

Yes, if it were a sea tiger, what would it do?

In fact, Wu Nan knew that his father's style had always been simple, direct, and extremely brutal—in reality, compared to the love his mother had for the three brothers, Hai Hu's love for his sons was so meager...

If these kids disappointed Haihu so much, he might just let them fight amongst themselves like dogs, letting these good-for-nothings fend for themselves.

Alternatively, Haihu might choose another approach—since a conflict between the two sides is inevitable, he would simply kill one side or render the other side powerless to continue the fight.

Yes, Bai Wunan knew perfectly well that his father would have the thought and awareness to do so.

Because he was so biased; to put it bluntly, he only ever loved Hitomi Mizuki… His son was merely a byproduct of his love for Hitomi Mizuki…

In fact, this simplest and most direct method might not be a bad way to solve the problem... But Wu Nan also knew that a direct approach would inevitably lead to more problems...

"Wu Nan, all you really need to do is prevent your two older brothers from fighting each other to the death."

Ai Ge gently wrapped her arms around Wu Nan's neck and whispered...

“You don’t need to be perfect, and you can’t be. Your father and others don’t have such high expectations of you.”

"Since it's something that can't be stopped or changed, why are you so concerned about it? You've already done what everyone thinks is the best, so why force yourself to make a further choice?"

Yes, since it's an unchangeable fact, people shouldn't dwell on it or be so fussy!

Wu Nan smiled wryly. Of course he understood the道理 (principles/reasoning), but understanding didn't mean he could do it...

Wu Nan was born as the youngest child, but he had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of mediating between his two older brothers—even his father had such expectations of him.

Wu Nan, you are the calmest of my sons!

Wu Nan, you are the kindest of my children!

Wu Nan, you must mediate the conflict between your brothers!

With so many expectations placed upon him, how could Wu Nan allow himself to let go of all these burdens?

And so they carried heavier and heavier burdens, finding it increasingly difficult to put them down...

With a light thud, Bai Wujie arrived beside Wu Nan, looking at the stone statues of Hai Hu and his wife and teasingly said...

“Being sentimental is not something to be encouraged. If you disturb your parents’ time together so often, you’re bound to get scolded by them for being a nag in the future.”

"Is there any chance I'll ever see them again?" Bai Wunan countered.

"Of course, Wu Nan, don't doubt your talent." Bai Wujie patted his adopted son's shoulder and chuckled...

"Your talent far surpasses that of your two older brothers; the only thing you lack is the right mindset—"

But then again, with you brothers all possessing the talent to easily reach 750,000 horsepower, talent is nowhere near as important as mindset.

When it comes to magnetic field rotation, talent determines their respective lower limits—among the already rare magnetic field rotation talents, the difference between a magnetic imp and a true martial god is truly worlds apart.

Talent determines the lower limit one can reach at this stage, but when strength reaches a certain limit in the current environment—

To be precise, once you reach 750,000 horsepower and can freely alter your body's cells, talent becomes irrelevant.

What's important is each other's mindset and thoughts; that's the soul of a strong person.

To understand one's true self and be true to oneself, the path to becoming a strong person can only be completed by those who are selfless and have no regrets.

As for Wu Nan... his problems seem to be even more numerous than those of his brothers.

"You're well aware of your own mindset problem; you'll never be able to escape the simple word 'responsibility' in your entire life," Bai Wujie commented.

"Responsibility is the source of your soul's strength, but it's also the stumbling block that prevents you from becoming the strongest—in a sense, you and Oga are exactly the same."

Yes, Bai Wunan in this world, due to his upbringing and innate conditions, has no possibility of giving birth to an evil version of himself.

Even so, he still faces considerable problems.

The id is a free-spirited wanderer, yet everything in his nature demands that he bear the responsibility of endless difficulties.

Conflict and entanglement filled Bai Wunan's heart.

He was actually quite similar to his older brother, Shounan, except that Shounan resolutely chose to uphold his responsibility over his own conscience, tempering his heart through endless suffering and achieving a sublimation. As for Wunan...

What, then, is his pain?

"I won't interfere with your actions, Wu Nan. You can choose your own path, even if you become my enemy later," Bai Wujie said nonchalantly.

"Escape, confrontation, hatred—all of these are decisions you, Bai Wunan, made yourself. Even your father didn't ask you to do that much. Wunan, don't take yourself too seriously, and don't think that only you can change all of this."

"Your fate is determined by yourself, whether it's right or wrong, I won't tell you what to do."

Wu Nan nodded slightly, but Bai Wujie didn't care whether he had actually listened.

Just as he said, Wu Nan's path is one he must walk himself; no one will demand that Wu Nan do anything.

Whether he can let go or not is simply his own problem.

"Alright, let's stop talking about these annoying things."

Bai Wujie suddenly revealed a playful smile, patted Wu Nan on the shoulder, and said with a wicked grin...

"Why don't we take another look at your older brother's pathetic behavior?"

……

"Go to hell!!"

The training range in heaven is powered by nuclear energy and features 400,000 horsepower training robots built with cutting-edge technology...

It was easily torn apart by the furious punches of an angry young man.

The corpses of these incredibly expensive robots now fill the entire training ground, while the young man standing in the center doesn't even break a sweat.

"After venting for hours, are you feeling better now?"

With a faint voice, Hell arrived at the shooting range and looked at the young man in the middle, his adopted son, the white-haired man...

"Godfather, I..." The eldest son hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

"Shou Nan, you're getting more and more confused. Ever since your wrong choice hurt Qiu Tian that day, you've become increasingly unable to control yourself. Is your wisdom so easily manipulated and controlled?"

"I know, Godfather, but I just can't calm myself down. I... I never thought I would like autumn so much." The young man lowered his head and said dejectedly...

The dignified heir to the Heavenly Kingdom, the invincible son of the Sea Tiger, Bai Shou Nan, is actually so fussy and pathetic.

Perhaps Shiro is right, his chief is a useless piece of trash!

"Godfather, what should I do?"

"Ha, it's really complicated. It's a pity I've never been in a relationship."

While this might be a shameful statement for an ordinary man, Hell doesn't think so.

Because he doesn't have the extra thoughts or energy to talk about any nonsensical love!

His heart was set on the world, on the Kingdom of Heaven, and on his hundreds of millions of people! And such a great man would certainly not be troubled by mere emotions.

The First Man is different. Although Hell has chosen him as its successor, Hell can also see that the First Man does not have the mindset of having the world in mind—or rather, he cannot find pleasure and climax in ruling the people like Hell does.

"My son, though I don't understand love, I know how strong your feelings for Qiu Tian are. I can't analyze right or wrong for you, nor can I offer you any help... because I can't openly hurt Qiu Tian, ​​you, or even my junior brother." Hell pressed down on the first man's shoulder and said earnestly.

"But you should do what you think is right, and then accept failure without regret."

"That autumn...did she really love the darkness?" the first man couldn't help but ask.

"Hey kid, do you want to get a no from me so you can justify stealing autumn?"

He chuckled, having seen through the first man's petty temper, and then said...

"I don't know. Perhaps Autumn initially did it to help me win over Darkness, this talented future powerhouse... so that we wouldn't have to worry about anything in our future battles against Blue Dream and the Lion Society, and also out of spite for you. But I don't know what's happened now, but there's no doubt about it, Darkness..."

"You're much better to autumn than you are to autumn."

"So, Godfather, what do you want me to do?" the first man asked helplessly, even though his gaze remained firm and strong... In the face of hell, the first man was like a child begging for his parents' help.

"And how did your brother teach you? And yet you still come to me asking again?" Hell retorted.

"Does this matter concern whether others want it or not? It concerns whether you love autumn and whether you are prepared to bear the consequences of your actions!"

"Sir, what you need to do and what you should accomplish are all up to you. The influence and advice of others will only shake your resolve!"

Although Hell didn't offer any advice, his attitude and guidance to the first man made it absolutely clear!

First man! Go for it! Go for it without any regrets!

Having received his godfather's permission and advice, the white-haired man was now completely clear about what he should do!

“I understand, Godfather!” The first man’s gaze was resolute, and he already had his own ideas…

"I will do it, everything that needs to be done... everything!"

Ten days later

Heaven, District One...

Here lies a once-obscure village, a poor village seven years ago, before the Kingdom of Heaven truly came to rule the whole of Asia.
