An Extra Villain in Cultivation World-Chapter 62: Why?

Xuanyan was sleeping peacefully in Lingling’s embrace, a gentle smile on his face. Suddenly, a surge of intense pain flooded his mind, forcing his eyes to snap open. He clutched his head tightly, trying desperately to understand what was happening,

A sudden blue screen flashed before him, instantly capturing his attention. At the same time, the intense pain that roused him from his deep sleep vanished as if it never existed.

[Host—"You finally wake up! Sorry for jolting you awake like that, you were really in deep Sleep. But listen, this is incredibly urgent. Tang Lishen’s luck has somehow doubled just a few hours ago–meaning you might have to be very cautious around him from now on!"]

Xuanyan’s gaze remained fixed on the message flashing on the system blue panel. At this point, he was fully awake. He squinted his eyes as he tried to fathom the absurd words before him. How could this be? Just a few days ago, he had snatched Lingling away from him, causing a 12% drop in Tang Lishen fate value–his first true victory over any protagonist. And now, this...He didn’t understand exactly what fate’s value was, but it had to be something crucial, right? Perhaps tied to luck? That’s usually how things worked in web novel. Are fate value and luck value different from each other?.

"How"! Xuanyan asked internally as he shifted on the bed to wake up and freshen up. Outside the window, the world lay swallowed by darkness. Heavy rain poured endlessly from the heavens, while thunder roared at intervals, lightning briefly tearing open the black sky before fading away.

[Host — I’m not entirely sure yet. I can’t confirm the real reason, but I do have an idea about why his luck suddenly doubled.]

Xuanyan didn’t respond after reading the message; instead, his gaze lingered on sister Lingling, whose naked body pressed softly against him. Her tender breast rested against his chest, and her legs were spread comfortably open, a radiant smile lighting up her face. He gently ran his fingers through her, feeling the warmth of her in a tight embrace. Finally, he stood up to freshen up, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead before heading to the bathroom.

While cleaning the body,he couldn’t hold back any longer and finally asked. "What exactly happened while I was sleeping? And what does this fate value mean?"

[ Host– "Heaven will likely be behind all of this. It must be because you snatched Lingling away from Tang Lishen, but it still doesn’t make sense why heaven would intervene just for that."]

[The Way of Heaven is to be impartial, it is to take away the surpluses while replenishing deficits. So all the things are balanced and mutually restrict each other. As such, almost all fierce beasts have their natural enemies, and even the creator of this entire universe has Limited Lifespan.]

The system paused briefly before speaking again: [ And the way of humans, however, is exactly opposite of heaven’s. Humans seek to reduce their deficits and build up their surpluses. Cultivators will strive to grow even stronger, the wealthy yearn to become richer, a beauty would want to become more beautiful. Those who have found long longevity treasures will want to obtain eternal life.]

[Host– Currently, Tang Lishen’s luck is rising even faster than before. At this rate, by morning, his fortune will be three times that of you and Ye Qingfeng combined.]

Xuanyan was completely stunned after hearing that even the Creator had a limited lifespan. His thoughts became chaotic for a moment. "How is that even possible?" he blurted out immediately, unable to control his shock. "If he’s the Creator... doesn’t that make him the God of this universe? And if he’s God, how can he die?"

He didn’t take a moment to organize his thoughts, the questions spilled out of him one after another, unstoppable.

"And what about Heaven’s Will? Isn’t that supposed to be the highest existence? If the Creator can die, then what exactly is Heaven? Are they the same? Or different?"

A deep frown creased his brow as he struggled, trying to make sense of it all, but the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

"Wait... if Heaven is impartial, if it treats everyone like pawns and balances everything equally, then why does it favor people like Ye Qingfeng and Tang Lishen? Why are they showered with endless resources, powerful backings and even women–as if fate itself is on their side?"

His voice was tinged with both confusion and frustration.

"And cultivators... aren’t they supposed to gain an infinite lifespan upon reaching a certain realm? That’s what every Cultivation novel is about. So how can the Creator, standing above all, still have a limit?"

Xuanyan finally stopped speaking, his breathing slightly uneven. The idea of a dying God shook him more than he expected. If even the highest existence isn’t eternal, then what was the true peak of cultivation?

Was there even a peak at all? Or is the quest endless, forever out of reach?.

This time, instead of messaging on the system screen, the voice spoke directly into Xuanyan’s mind, cutting through silance with a surprising, almost casual tone than instentenly captivated him.

After a long sigh, it began to answer.

["Host--First, you don’t need to know everything. There are things that become dangerous simply because you know them too early. You’ve heard the saying—birds die for food, humans die for wealth. Curiosity can kill just as easily. What is not important to you now does not need to burden you. I’ll tell you when you are supposed to know about everything, this time i am only telling a few details."]

[Ok so, listen carefully "What truly makes a god? Is it worship? Is it power? Or Is it the ability to create and destroy? In truth, divinity is not a fixed state. It is a matter of comparison, now listen very carefully to what I say next."
