Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 2282 - 2277: Misaligned Heaven


Chapter 2282: Chapter 2277: Misaligned Heaven

A painstaking effort, ultimately becoming a tool to showcase someone else’s glory? Indeed, it is sad.

Fu Qian expressed deep understanding of Yuan Shan’s emotions.

Although the title of Divine Envoy initially sounded odd, it mostly conveys a sense of nobility.

Now, after Old Master Henry’s detailed explanation, the supporting roles and helplessness are comparable to a scabbard forged after countless trials.

Not to mention that Chief Yuan’s teacher is in a state even worse than a scabbard.

It only goes to show that the closer one gets to the end, the more eerie the path of the Transcendent becomes.

Someone like Chief Yuan, who only looks at the present without aiming too high, indeed has a good approach.

Of course, speaking of peculiarities, she had yet to encounter anything more abstract — even in her Second Phase, she served as her own Angel Envoy.

Back then, borrowing the assistance of Emperor Yasui to successfully complete the Second Phase ritual made her feel deeply fascinated by the logic within.

After consuming the special traits she chose, the scene of selecting Divine Skin was even more spectacular.

But now, referring to Yuan Shan’s statements, some things suddenly appeared to have some sense of déjà vu — was her choice of Divine Skin back then an alternative reflection of the endpoint of the Divine Road?

Although the reflection wasn’t of her own path.

And now, is her current situation an excessively reflected one, to the point it is welded to her?

Suddenly, she felt a sense of belonging.

Always skilled in recognizing the optimistic side, Fu Qian quickly engaged in self-reflection, not forgetting to affirm the system’s inclusivity.

Not only for psychological feelings but practically, this was extremely important.

Let’s not forget that the true First Phase advancement ritual has yet to show any sign.

Although in the current state, under the perception system aided by the Witch, the necessity for rapid advancement doesn’t seem so urgent.

Yet proving it is still within the system undoubtedly means there are far more reference points available.

"No need to add unnecessary worries."

Gaining yet more insights, Fu Qian did not forget to reciprocate.

"After all, being in the worldly society demand conformity, when it really comes knocking, it’s something you can’t avoid."

...

"I actually don’t know how to comment on this sentence... but let’s take your words as a blessing."

Fu Qian’s skill in comforting others was always outstanding, so much so that Chief Yuan’s somber demeanor could no longer be maintained, and her features instantly settled into a conflicted state.

"In general, that’s roughly the content... Is there anything else you want to ask?"

With a long sigh, Yuan Shan expressed that her "sudden self" release was complete and casually asked Fu Qian.

And it must be said, she really was meticulous; having been assisted, she hadn’t even asked why they chose this name.

As for what else could be asked — there were still too many things.

Fu Qian noted with a thumbs-up in his heart.

For instance, were there originally thirteen suns in the sky...

For instance, does the Night Watchman know that the authority of the sun is somewhat controlled by the Prism of Radiant Transformation...

"In the Night Watchman’s internal history class, was it ever mentioned who the lord of Heaven is?"

Unfortunately, some topics remain rather sensitive, and Fu Qian had no intention of further dragging Chief Yuan into it, instead shifting to a more folklore-oriented question.

The lord of Heaven...

Although the only question was still somewhat difficult for Chief Yuan to answer, deeply furrowing her brows.

"This concept is genuinely very complex, even relatively new, to be honest. Even in the Night Holy City’s chapels and temples, you can find nearly two-digit numbers of such descriptions. You should have seen them before."

She eventually shook her head after much consideration.

"Indeed."

Of course, Fu Qian remembered well, as Old Master Henry had long been entrenched there, making him search in various places just to find him.

Back then, both master and disciple confessed that the reason for the indulgence in the city was due to a strong guiding factor pointing to something other than true Divine Beings.

Essentially, it was a system of belief monitoring specially designed by the Night Watchman.

...

So after death, entering Paradise, neither belongs to the widely spread teachings within the solar faith?

Or is it also part of the history deliberately concealed by the Night Watchman?

No answer is also an answer, and while Chief Yuan seemed slightly apologetic, Fu Qian showed no complaints.

The task in Paradise at that time, as summarized in the warehouse, stated that Eckhart’s suicide was to prove that their faith’s object had not abandoned them.

And he indeed succeeded, really arriving at Paradise.

Though prior to that, he had already been corrupted by Lord Stomach.

But such a classic concept as the sun, such a domineering name as the "Unbearable Wheel," if explicitly included in the teachings, it shouldn’t be completely buried in history.

Can it be that this belongs to the level of mysteries that only Angel Envoys of the caliber of an Ancient Man can grasp?

Wouldn’t it be too abstract? Shouldn’t this be used to attract followers?

Overall, this situation makes one somewhat puzzled.

Resulting in the relationship between the "sun" and "Paradise" suddenly becoming enigmatic once again.

Including the instance where she encountered the backstabbing tyrant, "Mourning God."

Fortunately, not all leads were lost — regarding the project of Ecstasy, she was at least one of the guiding experts.

Lord Stomach clearly had deep connections with the Lord of Bliss, it wouldn’t hurt to follow this line from His perspective.

"Overall, thank you very much, it was a lot of hard work."

In great spirits, for a moment even a slight impact on turnover didn’t bother Fu Qian, offering his thanks with a cheerful smile.

"No trouble at all..."

Feeling slightly reactive, the Poison Master was so earnest that Yuan Shan instinctively glanced at his face, worried about deceit.

But ultimately, she sensed the sincerity within, and the next moment exhaled lightly, waving her hand with an air of boldness.

"Is there only verbal thanks?"

Yet this harmony lasted only a few seconds before she remembered something, examining Fu Qian, displaying a peculiar expression.

"Or what?"

Fu Qian naturally showed no discomfort, asking casually.

"You’ve dressed quite formally today."

And Yuan Shan indeed focused on a familiar area, smiling as she commented on Fu Qian’s attire.

"Wen Li’s taste."

Fu Qian naturally wouldn’t covet such superficial fame, immediately attributing the credit to its rightful owner.

"No wonder, looks so thoughtful... She is still over at the Academy and hasn’t returned, right?"

The tone was casual enough, yet Chief Yuan’s words sounded increasingly improper, tempting one into peculiar thoughts.

"Speak your mind."

As a master of leading others astray, how could Fu Qian fall for such a trivial trick, immediately interrupting without changing his expression.

"And you look good too."

He even remembered to reciprocate the compliment, giving Yuan Shan praise for her attire today.

"Thank you... Now, do you have any interest in attending a social event with this charming participant?"

A failed misdirect did not affect her mood at all, and with a smile, Yuan Shan gestured outside.
