Eating flowers sounds like a very elegant thing, seemingly detached from the vulgarity and low tastes of ordinary if you think about it carefully, it’s terrifying.
Because the Flower Eater is a god, the god who rules over all the people in the world, and nothing related to his people appeared in his residence.
There were only flowers filling the entire space, layer upon layer, blooming and swaying in the windless air.
The flowers represent the desires that the flower eater cannot let go of.
Ran Ran twitched his lips. His desires were so strong and numerous, yet he could say that the most important step in becoming a god was to be stripped of emotions...
If desire is not extinguished, what is the use of having weak emotions?
God's power will not be used to protect his people. Instead, he will use his people as pawns to satisfy his ever-expanding desires.
Only at this moment did Ranran understand the meaning of the name Flower Eater. She looked at the Flower Eater's back, with an indelible coldness in her eyes.
Under the guidance of the Flower Eater, everyone stepped into the Qinlan Lake again, and something even more magical happened than last time.
The lake water beneath everyone's feet was supporting them as they rose into the air, just as the Flower Eater had done before.
Drops of slightly blue water connected everyone to the Qinlan Lake, as if some kind of phantom mechanical device was covered with the appearance of pure water.
Zhong Ning bent down and looked at the lake, and asked directly, "What will happen if this chain-like water droplet breaks?"
The flower eater smiled.
"You will fall down and be swallowed by the Qinlan Lake."
A dark light flashed in Ran Ran's eyes, "Doesn't Qinlan Lake obey your command? Don't you want us to fall down? Wouldn't we fall down too?"
The Flower Eater felt that he was having a great time talking to everyone, and he spared no effort in introducing His blessed land.
"Qinlan Lake is not simple. Not only does it have self-awareness, but it should have been here before I became a god."
Ran Ran was surprised, "I thought Qinlan Lake was created by you, sir."
The flower eater's eyes flashed with joy, "I wish so, but it's not the case."
"When I first became a god, Qinlan Lake did not obey me. It was only after my power grew stronger that it became convinced by me."
"But it has self-awareness after all. Even if it can sense my thoughts at any time, its reaction cannot be that fast."
The Flower Eater looked at Minister Gao and asked, "Didn't we make a mistake with this guest before?"
Everyone looked at Minister Gao when they heard this, and the Flower Eater smiled and said, "So everyone should be careful."
"If we fall from this height, Qinlan Lake might not be able to react in time."
Ranran also laughed, and it felt like she was smiling at the flower eater.
"Then, sir, have you ever thought about how this lake was formed?"
"Who knows? Maybe it was left behind by the previous god."
Ran Ran pretended to be open-minded and asked, "There is also a previous god? I misunderstood. I thought the gods existed with the world."
The Flower Eater was even happier. "Evil boy, you think I am the God of Creation. This really scares me."
Zhong Ning secretly rolled his eyes at the back, and was also terrified. His face was almost broken by laughter. He only showed happiness, not terrified...
"Whether a world continues to exist has nothing to do with gods, otherwise your world would not have existed for so long."
"The survival of the world is only related to the world power. Only when the world power is extinguished will a world collapse."
After listening to the explanation of the Flower Eater, Ran Ran asked, "What kind of power is the world power?"
"A power that is both pure and powerful." The Flower Eater said.
Perhaps it was because he had been locked up in the blessed land for too long, even if we put aside the relationship between Ranran and Kongdong, everyone could feel that the flower eater had a strong desire to share.
"Guests, please think about it. The cycle of birth and death of the entire world comes from this force. From the rising and setting of the sun to the sprouting of new flowers, it is this force that keeps it running." "How powerful is this force?"
Everyone couldn't help but wonder, "What's the source of this power? How can we keep it running forever without running out?"
“The source of the world’s power is the living things it nurtures.”
"The power of the world gave birth to mountains, rivers, and natural vegetation, providing a place for the living beings in the world to survive. In turn, the vitality of the living beings in the world will also feed back to the power of the world."
"The two are in a virtuous cycle. The more vitality there is in all living things, the stronger the world will be, and vice versa."
Everyone nodded, "That sounds good."
"It even makes sense if we apply the creation theories of our world. China has always been pursuing harmonious coexistence between man and nature!"
“There are also slogans like protecting the environment is protecting ourselves.”
"A common saying between worlds is... protecting the world's power is protecting humanity itself."
Ran Ran listened to everyone's discussion and suddenly asked, "What role did the gods play in this?"
Minister Gao scratched his head and said, "Yeah! The theory just mentioned seems to be that it is okay even without God. It is just like our world."
The smile on the Flower Eater's face faded a little, "Gods are chosen by the world's forces to manage the world."
“It’s like a gardener who manages a garden. Without the gardener, the garden will only be overgrown with weeds, the soil will not be fertile, and the flowers will not grow.”
"But it's different with a gardener. The garden will be planned, and the use of every piece of land, the sowing of every seed, and the irrigation of every bag of fertilizer will develop in a better direction."
Ran Ran smiled, "My Lord, you are talking about the ideal state, right?"
"But the metaphor of the gardener and the garden, the gods and the world is indeed appropriate, at least in terms of the power they possess..."
"Both the gardener and the god have the power of transformation at will."
"If the transformation is good, everyone will be happy. If it is not good..."
When Ranran's eyes dim, the world will rush towards destruction. The gardener insists on his own way and destroys the plants in the garden wantonly to satisfy his personal desires. In his opinion, the weeds are not even qualified to be fertilizers.
This is the current situation in the world of flower eaters.
After obtaining supreme power, the god only thought of himself and turned the garden upside down with a huge shovel.
He is stealing the world's power from his people, the world's power that is originally used to sustain the vitality of all living things.
The Flower Eater did not feel embarrassed. On the one hand, he was indifferent, but on the other hand, Ran Ran was someone he needed to please, so he did not say bluntly that he was incompetent like before. He was already very satisfied.
He is indeed incompetent, and his mind is filled with thoughts of making himself stronger. It is probably not right for God to do this.
But there is no way, because He is a god and He possesses such power.
Sacrifice ordinary people to achieve your own power.
I am the fish and others are the butchers. This is what the Flower Eater believed in before he became a god.
The same is true after becoming a god.
In a blink of an eye, everyone arrived in front of the vine house. There were five spacious and bright houses neatly arranged in a row.
The flower eaters are arranged with one room per person.
"It has been a long time since we have had any guests in the blessed land. I hope my preparations will live up to your expectations."
Ran Ran walked down from the lake, looked around, and found that the house was very nice, much better than the crappy god, the Flower Eater.
If He had put a little of the effort He put into preparing the house to benefit His people...the world of Flower Eaters would surely be a much better place now.
What a pity... This god is too selfish. (End of this chapter)
