--- Chapter 307 ---

Huan Caiyi and Yujin stared at Yu Long with a new look. To them, this young man is full of miracles, doing something impossible by simply flipping his hand.

However, they couldn't understand him.

What he's as a person.

What is his view of the world?

Yujin witnessed Yu Long's horror and experienced his wonder at getting this second chance at life. Still, she was awed by his perspective on life.

That's right. Nothing is perfect in this world. Yujin, who has lived through the Primordial Age of Gods, knew this well.

Why chase perfection?

To become stronger?

To get superficial glory?

A lick of vanity?

All those things are minor problems for Yu Long. What he wanted was more than that.

The greatest desire is often the most basic. Yes, to live!

Life is the greatest goal of a living being, and strength supports that till the end of time.

Yu Long didn't want others to chase their goals meaninglessly. He wanted them to reach their peak potential and see their growth, whether sad or happy, as long as they did it.

Even if those experiences are regretful, Yu Long respected them.

Yu Long's god-like powers changed his perspective early in life. He has authority that even the strongest of the strongest couldn't understand.

However, does it change him as a person?

He's still a functional 'human' being.

He could still smile, laughing, feeling sadness over a 'small' loss.

'My Lord, oh, my lord... Just what have you experienced to see the world like this?' Yujin couldn't help but think to herself.

Meanwhile, Huan Caiyi slowly lowered her head. She clenched her head and felt loss. She tried putting herself in Yu Long's position, yet couldn't understand him.

Technically speaking, she was way older than Yu Long.

Yet she felt her understanding insignificant compared to Yu Long.

Yu Long noticed the tense mood and chuckled, "What's the matter? Did my words make you in no mood to eat anymore?"

"Don't worry. Don't take my words to heart."

"It's just a random rambling, trivial to others but me."

"Haha, hahaha~! Eat, eat!" Yu Long's laughter echoed in the room.

Huan Caiyi and Yujin glanced at each other, smiling bitterly. Only a person like Yu Long could diminish such claims like nothing.

Still, the atmosphere in the room gradually returned to normal.

Yujin started devouring food while Huan Caiyi acted like a virtuous wife and put delicious dishes on Yu Long's plate.

Yu Long smiled faintly, 'Life is good.'

After filling their stomach, though Yu Long and Yujin were bottomless abysses, the three enjoyed tea silently.

Yujin gracefully blew her tea, looking nothing like the gluttonous woman before. Even Yu Long and Huan Caiyi were speechless by this change of hers.

"Are you okay?" Huan Caiyi glanced at Yujin's stomach and saw it look as flat as she remembered.

Yujin felt a faint scorn in Huan Caiyi's eyes. She rolled her eyes at this newborn bird and replied, "Yes, I'm okay."

"Why do you think I'm not okay? This food is nothing compared to what I had in the upper realm, and it won't even fill the gap in my teeth."

"I see..." Huan Caiyi nodded in understanding.

"..." Yujin's mouth twitched. Hey, why did I feel you looked down on me even more?

Knock! Knock!

"Who is there?" asked Yujin in annoyance, changing the focus to the door behind her.

"Young Master, it's me." Chu Yueli's voice entered the room.

Yu Long narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Well, come in, Yueli."

Chu Yueli opened the door, and Yu Long saw her bring Yun Che, Xiao Lingxi, Yona, Yun Xiao, and Tianxia Diqi along.

(A/N: "Number Seven Under Heaven" would be written as "Tianxia Diqi" from now on)

Yu Long leaned on his seat and sipped his tea, "Well, what an interesting group of people."

Chu Yueli nodded at his words and replied calmly, "Young Master, these youngsters need your help."

Yun Che, Yun Xiao, and Tianxia Diqi were speechless by Chu Yueli's blunt reply. They expected themselves to grovel and beg Yu Long to help Yun Xiao but didn't expect it to be like this.

Too fast! Simply, too fast!

Xiao Lingxi and Yona were used to Chu Yueli's antics, so they didn't show a surprised expression when this happened.

Yu Long stared at Chu Yueli meaningfully and glanced at Yun Che and Yun Xiao. As the reader of Against the Gods, he knew the fate of these two young men.

However, all those futures won't happen anymore because of Yu Long's presence in the Primal Chaos Dimension. Yu Long is not just a butterfly who flapped his wings but also an era-changing storm that would sweep this world sooner or later.

Anyway, Yu Long stared at Yun Xiao in amusement. The fate of this young man can be described as "nice and horrible" at the same time. Upon his birth, he got swapped with Yun Che and fled to the Illusionary Demon Realm, living the life of a faker.

Everyone looked down on Yun Xiao, deeming him unworthy of the Yun Family's young master title. The pressure is higher than Yun Che's bullying in Xiao Clan.

Don't forget Yun Xiao is the descendant of the Xiao Clan in the Floating Cloud City. Strictly speaking, Yun Xiao's talent and bloodline are nothing special in the Illusory Demon Realm.

Even then, Yun Xiao worked hard and rivaled those talents in other Twelve Guardian Families. He has the template of a Protagonist.

Unfortunately, all this "hard work" of Yun Xiao was 'instantly' ruined when Xiao Lingxi/Ancestral God's recent reincarnation twisted the fate lines by reviving "Yun Che" of another timeline into this timeline.

It's the scary thing about manipulating Samsara. Everything on its path is nothing but dust. Your effort means nothing in the majesty of Ancestral God.

Fortunately, Yu Long has eliminated Ancestral God's recent reincarnation and made the fate lines flow more naturally.

'What a troublesome past.' Yu Long thought while discreetly glancing at Xiao Lingxi.

He looked at Yun Xiao again, "It's him, right?"

Yun Che nodded and replied, "Boss, Brother Xiao is Little Aunt's biological nephew. He has been living in the Yun Family for years and is the young master of the clan, but he needs "Profound Handle" to truly inherit the family's mantle."

"I hope Boss can help us by transplanting Yun Family's bloodline to Brother Xiao."

"If possible, please use my blood!" Yun Che added firmly.

"Brother Yun..." Yun Xiao was 'deeply' touched by Yun Che's words.

Yun Che's antics entertained Yu Long a little because the person with the most potent "Profound Handle" in this era was none other than Yun Che, who could awaken a purple or even gold-colored Profound Handle that could replicate 100% of its possessor's strength.

The gold-colored Profound Handle is very strong, even better than the Aspect of Manifestation at some level.

However, not everyone has a gold-colored Profound Handle.

Even Yun Canghai, the well-known Demon King, only has a cyan-colored Profound Handle that displays 50% of his power.

After all, Profound Handle is a bloodline ability. And the Yun Family's bloodline is not pure enough.

Yu Long believed anyone could learn the "Aspect of Manifestation" if they worked hard, but not everyone can possess something like Profound Handle.

The same thing applies to Yun Xiao.

Yu Long could replicate Yun Che's bloodline into him, but that wouldn't necessarily fit him 100% unless he modified the bloodline first.

"Are you sure you wanted to do this?" Yu Long asked Yun Xiao.

"Because if not, I have a better choice for you."

Chu Yueli, Huan Caiyi, and Yujin put on a solemn expression upon hearing this. They knew Yu Long was going to offer something big. They couldn't help but lament at Yun Xiao's luck.

Yun Xiao's heart beats like a wild horse. Frankly, he didn't want Yun Che to suffer for him. Although Yu Long could transplant Yun Che's blood to him, Yun Che might have to pay a huge price.

If Yu Long could give him a better choice that wouldn't hurt anybody, Yun Xiao would be willing to do it.

"Please tell me." Yun Xiao said with a determined look.
