Chi Lingxi stared at their hands.
Then...
At Shen Tian.
Then...
She grabbed his other hand.
Shen Tian looked down.
Chi Lingxi smiled sweetly.
"Problem?"
"No."
Tang Meilin stared.
Two hands.
Occupied.
Her eyes narrowed.
Then...
She walked behind Shen Tian.
Wrapped both arms around one of his arms from behind Rose.
Rose looked at her.
Tang Meilin smiled.
"What?"
"That’s cheating."
"No rules."
Chu Zijin stared.
Then...
She moved toward Shen Tian’s other side.
Chi Lingxi immediately looked at her.
Chu Zijin froze.
"I was just..."
She looked around.
"...checking his sleeve."
Silence.
Shen Tian stared at his sleeve.
"Again?"
Chu Zijin’s face turned red.
"Quiet."
Lin Yue covered her mouth.
Gu Qingya sighed.
Mu Qingqing looked genuinely fascinated.
Ji Xuan whispered...
"Is it always like this?"
Luo Xiaoyu smiled.
"I hope so."
Shen Tian heard.
His eyebrow rose.
Mu Qingqing immediately looked toward them.
"Don’t encourage this."
Ji Xuan smiled.
"You’re still here."
Mu Qingqing froze.
Then...
Her cheeks warmed.
"I am here because of the Dragon Vein."
Rose looked at the destroyed Dragon Vein.
"Of course."
Mu Qingqing stared.
"Don’t."
. . .
A horrible laugh interrupted them.
Everyone turned.
The Failed Fate Devourer was still alive.
Barely.
Its hands wrapped around Shen Tian’s spear.
Black veins spread through its body.
Then...
It smiled.
"You think..."
Black Fate gathered.
"...you are different from me?"
Shen Tian’s expression remained calm.
The creature coughed blood.
"You consume Fate."
"So did I."
"You destroy children of destiny."
"So did I."
"You steal what heaven gives them."
"So did I."
The cavern became quiet.
Qin Hao watched.
Adrian watched.
Chen Mo watched.
The creature laughed weakly.
"You call yourself my replacement..."
Its smile widened.
"But you are merely..."
"...my successor."
Silence.
Xu Ning looked toward Shen Tian.
He didn’t react.
The creature continued.
"Eventually..."
"You will consume too much."
"You will stop seeing people."
"You will see only Fate."
"Only value."
"Only what can be taken."
Rose’s hand tightened around Shen Tian’s.
Chi Lingxi looked toward him.
Tang Meilin stopped smiling.
Gu Qingya watched quietly.
The creature whispered...
"And the women behind you..."
Its white eyes moved toward them.
"...will become treasures too."
Shen Tian’s expression changed.
Not anger.
Something colder.
Disgust.
"No."
The creature laughed.
"You will."
"No."
"Fate consumes everyone."
Shen Tian stepped forward.
"You made one mistake."
The creature stared.
Shen Tian grabbed the Heaven Severing Sovereign Spear.
"The same mistake they keep making."
His eyes briefly moved toward Chen Mo.
Chen Mo stiffened.
Then...
Back.
"You think everything around me belongs to me."
Silence.
Shen Tian pulled the spear free.
Black blood splashed across the stone.
"They don’t."
Rose stared.
Chi Lingxi’s expression softened.
Tang Meilin watched him.
Shen Tian continued.
"My money is mine."
"My cultivation is mine."
"My system is mine."
"My enemies are mine to destroy."
Then...
He looked toward the women.
"But people?"
Silence.
"They choose."
Rose’s lips parted slightly.
Gu Qingya smiled.
Tang Meilin’s cheeks warmed.
Lin Yue stared.
Chu Zijin’s expression softened.
Chi Lingxi smiled brightly.
Shen Tian looked back toward the creature.
"So no."
"I won’t become you."
The Failed Fate Devourer stared.
Then...
Shen Tian smiled.
"Because apparently..."
His spear rose.
"...I’m better at your job."
Xu Ning covered her face.
[There it is.]
BOOM!
The spear came down.
The ancient man’s body split beneath golden light.
His white eyes widened.
Then...
His body disintegrated.
Black ash scattered.
Silence.
A system notification appeared.
Failed Fate Devourer eliminated
Historical Fate reserve released
Then...
Golden light exploded.
Hundreds of thousands of Fate fragments filled the cavern.
Qin Hao’s system activated.
Adrian’s system activated.
Chen Mo’s inheritance reacted.
All three protagonists looked upward.
The fragments were free.
Unclaimed.
Qin Hao’s eyes widened.
His system screamed.
CLAIM FATE FRAGMENTS
CLAIM IMMEDIATELY
Adrian’s system did the same.
Massive recovery opportunity
Chen Mo’s instincts surged.
Take them.
The heroines heard.
Then...
All three moved.
Qin Hao jumped.
Adrian followed.
Chen Mo launched himself upward.
Shen Tian...
Didn’t.
Rose looked at him.
"Aren’t you going?"
"No."
Qin Hao heard.
His eyes narrowed midair.
Why isn’t he moving?
Han Yuer heard.
Her expression changed.
Then...
She looked toward Shen Tian.
His smile.
Again.
"Oh no."
Qin Hao froze.
"What?"
Han Yuer pointed.
"His face."
Qin Hao looked.
Then...
His eyes widened.
"No."
Adrian heard him.
"What?"
Qin Hao shouted.
"STOP!"
Too late.
Qin Hao touched the first Fate fragment.
Adrian touched another.
Chen Mo grabbed a third.
The entire cavern flashed.
FATE OWNERSHIP CONFLICT DETECTED
Xu Ning smiled.
Shen Tian looked upward.
"What happens now?"
[Exactly what you thought.]
The Fate fragments had belonged to twenty three different historical
protagonists.
Different destinies.
Different narratives.
Different eras.
Different incompatible Fate authorities.
And all three current protagonists had just tried absorbing them raw.
Qin Hao’s system screamed.
WARNING
INCOMPATIBLE FATE SIGNATURE
Adrian’s eyes widened.
CORRUPTED FATE DETECTED
Chen Mo coughed blood.
His inheritance shook violently.
All three dropped.
BOOM!
Qin Hao hit the ground.
Adrian rolled.
Chen Mo landed on one knee.
Shen Tian stared.
Then...
"That looked painful."
Qin Hao slowly raised his head.
"You..."
Shen Tian smiled.
"I didn’t tell you to grab them."
Qin Hao’s eye twitched.
"You knew."
"Suspected."
"Same thing!"
"No."
Adrian groaned from the ground.
"I hate all of you."
Elena walked toward him.
Then...
Stood over him.
"You alive?"
Adrian stared upward.
"Emotionally?"
"No."
"Physically."
"Unfortunately."
She smiled.
Then offered her hand.
He took it.
Chen Mo wiped blood from his mouth.
Then...
His thought reached the women.
He waited.
Mu Qingqing looked toward Shen Tian.
He didn’t know for certain.
Her eyes narrowed thoughtfully.
He used us to test it.
Rose heard.
So did the others.
Then...
Chen Mo’s thought became irritated.
Smart bastard.
Rose smiled.
Shen Tian looked toward her.
"Chen Mo?"
She nodded.
"What?"
"He called you smart."
Chen Mo froze.
"I did not."
Mu Qingqing smiled.
"You did."
Chen Mo stared at her.
"I didn’t say anything."
"You thought it."
"That’s private."
Nine women answered simultaneously.
"No, it isn’t."
