Chapter 231 Worldly Fate [1] The Origin of the Tide
While the universe was still silent, a figure dressed in black robes wandered alone, without any goal or destination, simply drifting aimlessly between countless similar planets.
He was born of heaven and earth, and the world's consciousness endowed him with flawless features, a tall and strong body, sharp and piercing eyes, and... enough power to dominate this world.
So he just stood there, and every move he made was enough to destroy a world; every frown and gesture carried an unparalleled sense of oppression.
However, when he was first born, he was far from being as calm as he is now. His unparalleled destructive power, cold-blooded and ruthless nature, and slightly insane personality made him only know how to wreak havoc to vent his innate savagery.
He didn't even stop at small-scale operations; during this period, countless planets were destroyed...
However, after destroying countless lifeless things, he suddenly grew tired of this meaningless game, tired of these boring days of venting his frustrations alone, and began to wander aimlessly.
The world is too quiet, he thought, or perhaps he is too lonely.
Perhaps in this empty world, there are other lives like his.
He quickened his pace, but closed his eyes. His powerful immortal energy rippled outwards like concentric black waves, continuing to explore more distant places.
In an empty world, it's easy to lose track of time. He didn't know how much time had passed—maybe months, maybe years—but when his patience was almost exhausted, he finally sensed a slight fluctuation of life in a place he had never set foot in before.
It wasn't that this life form was too weak to be detected; on the contrary, he could sense that this life form was truly powerful, even able to completely conceal its aura, almost escaping his detection.
However, his superior strength and skill made him stand out in the end. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult to find such a powerful being who deliberately concealed his aura.
Thinking this, his usually calm heart suddenly felt a little anxious and joyful—perhaps because he was too lonely, or perhaps because he didn't want to wander alone anymore, he desperately hoped that someone could accompany him, just him.
Guided by his senses, on that unremarkable planet, he no longer saw the same lifeless wasteland, but a sea... well, perhaps it should be a lake?
The two unfamiliar concepts of "sea" and "lake" suddenly surfaced in his mind, causing him to pause slightly. After a flood of thoughts, they ultimately coalesced into a symbol of life and hope—"water."
The lake was calm and undisturbed. The deep blue water was like a mirror, clearly reflecting his face, yet it also acted as a barrier, protecting the still-unawakened ruler of water.
However, such protection was meaningless to him, as his eyes could easily penetrate the water and see the primordial spirit hidden at the bottom of the water, which had not yet taken form.
It was a ball of blue light, its faint, aquamarine glow pulsating like a beating heart, calm and restrained, illuminating the dark lakebed.
Unlike the rampage surrounding him, this primordial spirit, whose strength was slightly inferior to his, carried an extremely gentle aura, like a gentle spring flowing through the heart, seemingly embracing all restlessness and sweeping away all loneliness, giving people a feeling of inner peace.
"Is this... water?" he murmured to himself, but he was drawn to the pure and pristine water and unconsciously reached out his hand, wanting to touch the lake in front of him.
However, how can the majesty of water be allowed to be violated?
The moment he touched the lake water, the calm, mirror-like surface suddenly lit up, and the condensed water column abruptly struck him.
Caught off guard, he was knocked back a few steps. His displeasure at being ambushed made him slightly stern. Black immortal power quickly gathered and violently collided with the water that launched another attack.
Not to be outdone, the flowing water launched wave after wave of blue jets at him, their ever-growing power drawing his attention.
This equally powerful immortal energy ignited a fighting spirit within him, and the unprecedented battle excited him—perhaps with this life form present, the future wouldn't be too boring.

[LiLi's Words]
As Lili said before, whether it was the separation and rupture in the past or the eternal separation in the first time, it was a tragic ending. However, whether it was a bad ending or a happy ending, whether there was happiness and joy or sadness and despair, it all shaped Shuishui into someone who would carefully consider this relationship later on and become very sensitive. It also gave her the courage and belief to risk everything to protect the one she loved.
Finally, I sincerely wish our Shishui a long and healthy life, and that they may overcome all obstacles and remain by their loved ones' side forever.
