“The benefits for me?”
Feng Qing’an’s eyebrows furrowed involuntarily, a vague premonition filling him. The words that the man spoke next indeed confirmed this, yet they also left him stunned.
“Your Guardian Beast Master system, although I was a bit lazy when I made it all those years ago and didn’t put much thought into it, it’s somewhat crude, but I didn’t set any barriers for you. The benefits and opportunities within it are as good as free. You should be pretty happy with it, right?”
The young man stroked his chin and spoke cheerfully, but Feng Qing’an felt a chill spread through his entire body.
His premonition from many years ago had turned into reality at this very moment. The perpetrator behind the scenes had jumped out when he was completely unprepared. Considering the means he had to even hold the Heavenly Tribulation at bay, Feng Qing’an was not able to resist him at all.
“My system…you gave it to me?”
Although the truth was shocking, it was not unacceptable. After all, one could tell at a glance that the system was man-made and had certainly been endowed with great power.
The only urgent matter now was to figure out the identity of this man, his true intentions, and why he chose to reveal himself now.
“It’s not exactly accurate to say that. Back then, both your True Spirit and this system were pulled by me from outside the heavens. I just added a few personal touches,” the young man corrected Feng Qing’an’s words with a serious face.
“What did you add?”
Feng Qing’an asked. Now that this behind-the-scenes mastermind had jumped out, it seemed he was powerless to resist. So before everything ended, at least let him understand what was going on.
“Nothing much, just the physical characteristics you have now, I added them in.”
The young man waved his hand casually. Feng Qing’an, on the other hand, was completely stunned.
“My physique…you gave it all to me?”
“What else? What do you think that Guardian Beast Master’s inheritance could give you? It’s already good enough that it protected you and allowed me to pull you in.”
The youth retorted without any politeness. Feng Qing’an was utterly silenced.
He vaguely remembered some situations from before this life began, but undoubtedly, some things had been forgotten before truly starting this life, or he had never witnessed them in the first place.
“The Immortal Spirit Source, did you give it to me too?”
Feng Qing’an had a faint glimmer of hope in his heart. Among all the opportunities he had acquired, the most heaven-defying one was the Immortal Spirit Source that could easily reverse the fates of Spirits and grant immortality to all things.
“The Immortal Spirit Source is a Heavenly Dao authority I gave you. You can use it to obtain the origin of heaven and earth, and then according to your own wishes, bestow it upon Spirits you recognize.”
The young man once again corrected him. This explanation helped Feng Qing’an understand many things, yet it also made him even more perplexed.
Why did he so easily obtain immortality the first time he received the Immortal Spirit Source? It was because from that moment on, he had become a puppet to the Heavenly Dao, naturally not subject to the knife of time.
“You gave me authority over the Heavenly Dao, letting me easily tap into the origin of heaven and earth. What benefits does that bring you?”
Feng Qing’an honestly couldn’t understand. The young man was speaking lightly, but the information revealed in his words, upon reflection, was terrifying. What Feng Qing’an couldn’t understand the most was, what was he trying to do? Such power was casually given to him.
“Benefits? The benefit is to let you adapt in advance to how to use the laws of heaven and earth and mobilize the origin of heaven and earth!” The young man earnestly explained.
“Who exactly are you?”
Feng Qing’an’s mouth twitched slightly. If he had a choice, he wanted to stay far away from the man in front of him, but alas, he did not.
“You still can’t guess my identity after all this has happened?”
The young man, seeing Feng Qing’an’s uncertain expression, laughed even more happily. But he added one more sentence,
“Aren’t you the one who scolded me? You should be able to guess who I am easily.”
“Scolded you? The Saint of the Heavenly Dao!?”
Feng Qing’an had already guessed, but even then, he still felt a sense of surrealness. The man in front of him was far different from what he had imagined.
“Indeed.”
“Since you are the one who holds the Heavenly Dao, why would you endow me with these powers? Using the origin of heaven and earth recklessly like this, won’t it cause damage to the heaven and earth?”
“Damage? What you’re using has not even grown as much, and you call this damage? Don’t joke. Besides, this is to let you adapt in advance. This little consumption is necessary.”
The young man scoffed, completely disregarding Feng Qing’an’s words.
“As for why I give it to you, it’s of course for you to come up and replace me. I’ve had enough of this position. I originally wanted to wait for you to slowly climb up in an orderly manner, but you are too unappreciative. I have no choice but to descend.”
The casual words answered Feng Qing’an’s doubts but raised even bigger questions for him. In fact, his head was spinning, and he felt somewhat incredulous, as if he were dreaming.
“You gave me all these, and even created a system for me, just to let me replace you as the Saint of the Heavenly Dao?”
Feng Qing’an found it hard to believe. He even wondered if he had been bitten back by the Heavenly Demon White Tiger he raised, causing him to have some sort of delusional hallucination.
“Correct.”
“You’re actually willing to give me this position and you’re so casual about it, you…”
“You think this position is good?”
