Chapter 689 - 176: The Great Catastrophe of the Human Race
Recovered from the shock, Lu Hong didn’t provoke the Goddess of Fate anymore. He had already felt her strength, which was absolutely boundless, and truly befitting of a Primordial Deity.
A long while later, the Goddess of Fate composed herself and spoke, "You are really annoying, you know that?"
"Sometimes I even find myself quite annoying." Lu Hong smiled as he sipped the fine wine in his hand, which indeed tasted excellent, "This is definitely the best wine I’ve ever had in my life."
"Haha, giving you this wine is simply a waste," the Goddess of Fate seemed to be taking revenge for Lu Hong’s earlier provoking words.
"In fact, it seems to me that you exaggerated your capabilities before me," Lu Hong speculated. "If you could really foresee the future, you wouldn’t get angry over my words. Am I right?"
The Goddess of Fate, with a flickering gaze, answered, "Yes, you guessed it correctly. I can’t penetrate fate."
"But you long to transcend, to step out of predetermined fate," Lu Hong pressed on. "Therefore, you initiated this Time War, just to verify whether the future you could transcend. If you could, you would foresee and thus prevent this time-traversal. But the truth is, they succeeded in transcending time!"
Listening to Lu Hong’s speculations, the Goddess of Fate couldn’t help but sigh, "Lu Hong, you are really smart. Everything you said is correct. I am disappointed; I still couldn’t step out of the river of fate in the future. As the Goddess of Fate, I am still played by fate. I am really not reconciled!"
Well, guessing everything correctly doesn’t seem to help either; Lu Hong didn’t understand fate and couldn’t help the Goddess of Fate change anything.
Yet, at this moment, the Goddess of Fate spoke, "Your intelligence has earned you a chance, an opportunity to resolve a future crisis."
"You are willing to help me?!"
"Not exactly helping you, just showing you a way out," the Goddess of Fate slowly began. "Right now, even if I were to reopen the extreme abyss, you would still be powerless to stop the invasion of the beast clan. Therefore, to resolve this problem, you need truly formidable powers, might that crushes every Heavenly God of the beast clan."
