This wave of Sharp Critique in the Light Screen was ruthless.
It directly allowed many characters to gain a deeper understanding of Ning Rongrong's true colors.
Could it be that this girl wasn't just simply lacking in judgment, but was actually stupid to an outrageous degree?
This series of events was something that anyone with even a shred of brainpower wouldn't do!
Moreover, Ning Rongrong wasn't just foolish; she was clearly an ungrateful wretch.
Perhaps it was because she became a mere accessory to Oscar in the future, losing her own agency.
But regardless, such behavior was truly nauseating!
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "Good heavens, this Ning Rongrong is truly vicious."
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "These so-called Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa must be her most important elders, yet she could actually just abandon them like that?"
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "Even though I am the God of Evil, I could never be so heartless!"
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "Impressive, truly impressive!"
[God of Destruction (Douluo Era)]: "Such a heartless and unrighteous person is truly detestable."
[God of Destruction (Douluo Era)]: "Looking at it this way, even if she were deceived by that so-called Oscar, she would only be getting what she deserved..."
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "No! How is this possible?"
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "This Light Screen must be fake, right? Why would I ignore Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa in the future!"
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "This Light Screen is simply slandering me!"
[Oscar (Douluo Era)]: "Good grief, you dead girl, you still look down on me! With your character, you're even more disgusting than I am!"
[Oscar (Douluo Era)]: "You still have the nerve to blame the future me?"
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "Shut up! You dead scumbag, I'm going to kill you!!"
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "In the future, I must have been influenced by you, I must have been deceived by you, that's why I acted like that!"
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "No, I don't want to become a god anymore! Father, I want to kill this dog!"
[Ning Rongrong (Douluo Era)]: "Even if he can become the God of Food, I don't want to be with him, I don't want to be influenced by him! I only want you and the two grandpas!!"
[God of Food (Douluo Era)]: "Hey! Don't talk nonsense! I only said that Oscar had a chance; I never said I would definitely pass my divine position to him."
[Nine-Colored Goddess (Douluo Era)]: "Hey you, Ning Rongrong, is it? With your ungrateful nature, I won't be passing my divine position to you!"
[Nine-Colored Goddess (Douluo Era)]: "Forget it, husband, let's block these two; it's too disgusting..."
[God of Food (Douluo Era)]: "Fine, I'll listen to you, my wife. At worst, we'll just wait; it's not like we can't find another successor later."
[Oscar (Douluo Era)]: "What? No, you bitch, you've ruined my divine position!"
[Oscar (Douluo Era)]: "It's over, it's completely over! Now my chance at a divine position is gone, and no one will protect me anymore."
[Oscar (Douluo Era)]: "I don't want to die! Who can shelter me? I don't want to die at the hands of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect! I am, at the very least, a food-type soul master with innate full soul power!"
[He Caitou (Douluo Era 2)]: "I never expected that the legendary Senior Oscar of the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils could end up in such a miserable state."
[He Caitou (Douluo Era 2)]: "But if Senior Oscar can no longer inherit the position of the God of Food, does that mean I have a chance?"
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "Wait, God of Food? Are you all so eager to leave? You're all looking for successors without the slightest hesitation?"
[Ji Dong (Douluo Era 2)]: "Uh, actually, Senior Evil, you're about the same; you'll soon be XXX by XX too!"
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "What are you mumbling about now? I don't even know you."
[God of Evil (Douluo Era)]: "Forget it, the Sharp Critique for today is over, it's boring..."
Although the flow of time in the God Realm differed from the lower realms, this Light Screen seemed capable of forcibly synchronizing time between the two.
This was another point that made the gods of the God Realm feel even more terrified.
Even they had to wait a full day.
However, most characters were still preoccupied with this matter regarding Ning Rongrong.
It had to be said that this girl's brain was indeed stupid to an outrageous degree, to the point that they found it hard to imagine.
Douluo Era.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The Light Screen dissipated, but those images from the future had taken root in everyone's hearts.
In the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong knelt straight down.
"I'm sorry, Sword Grandpa. I'm sorry, Bone Grandpa."
Her voice trembled from the very beginning—not with the cautiousness of a child, but with genuine, visceral fear.
She knelt before Chen Xin and Gu Rong, her head bowed low, as if she wanted to fold her entire body into the floorboards.
"Rongrong knows these are future events, and I know they haven't happened yet. But... but this is truly my fault."
Her voice began to tighten:
"In the future, I will never not care about you. I'm sorry, Sword Grandpa, I'm sorry, Bone Grandpa."
Her shoulders were trembling.
"Rongrong would never do that! You will always be Rongrong's most important family!"
The final sentence was almost a shout, laced with a sob, as if she were trying to drag herself back from that terrifying future.
She looked up at Chen Xin and Gu Rong, her eyes brimming with tears that blurred her vision.
Chen Xin did not speak.
He stood there, looking down at Ning Rongrong as she knelt on the ground, his usually gentle face devoid of expression.
The images from the Light Screen were still spinning in his mind, making his chest feel heavy and stifled.
He had lived for so many years, and to protect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he had long been prepared to die at any moment.
Yet, he had never imagined that after his death, there wouldn't even be anyone to collect his remains.
No, there was one person who would.
It was Feng Zhi.
And the Rongrong whom he and Old Bone cherished most, their granddaughter, couldn't even spare the time for that.
Chen Xin closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
The sigh was drawn out, as if he were trying to exhale all the bitterness in his heart, yet it seemed he could never fully empty it.
He stepped forward, bent down, and reached out to help Ning Rongrong up.
His movements were as gentle as they had always been since she was a child.
But there was no smile on his face; the expression that used to make the corners of his mouth lift whenever he saw Rongrong had vanished.
"Rongrong, Grandpa doesn't blame you."
His voice was flat, as if he were stating something of no consequence.
"If such a thing really happens in the future, and Old Bone and I are already dead, what difference does it make whether you collect our remains or not?"
"Old Bone and I wouldn't know anyway."
He paused for a moment.
"Rongrong, don't worry, you will always be our most important granddaughter."
Ning Rongrong froze.
She understood every word; they were words of comfort and affection, no different from what she had heard in the past.
Yet, she felt that something was wrong, as if something had changed—something she couldn't quite name or describe had vanished from Chen Xin's tone.
That specific tenderness, the kind he reserved only for her, that unreserved gentleness.
Ning Rongrong's tears finally fell, not out of guilt, but out of fear.
She suddenly realized that a rift had formed between her and Sword Grandpa.
It was small and thin, yet she could see it clearly.
