"When he was alive, he knew what was right from what was wrong, but because he had such a weak will when it came to indecent indulgences such as; Lust, fornication, adultery, petty theft, different vices and the likes, he accepted his punishments without blaming anyone or anything else other than his weak-willed self…"

"He knew what was right and what wasn't, still, he chose to continue in his perverted and lecherous lifestyle, thus only himself was responsible for the pain and agony he was currently suffering…"

​​

"What a weak willed man he was…" Cui nostalgically murmured that last part beneath his breath…

"But, you see, on a very peculiar and particular day, as he was screaming out his guts in the agony that the scorching hellfire brought to his feeble soul, a hand reached out of nowhere and grabbed him by his shoulders as he was yanked out…"

"Then for the first time in a long time, that was if time was even a thing in this place, he finally got a brief moment of rest, and with hot tears flowing down his eyes, he turned around to see the face of his liberator, and what he saw left him utterly stunned…"

"What he was actually looking at was what seemed like the face of a celestial belle which in all her grandeur and blinding radiance made Luo Sheng's thought process skip a few seconds until the lady finally spoke;"

"I found you, eventually." She said with a relieved sigh and a slightly pained expression on her perfect face… She was definitely a goddess…"

"A goddess!? Like from the high heavens!?" Min Hong blurted with a stunned expression etched on his face…

For some reasons, and at one subconscious point of the tale, Min Hong had completely forgotten that it was supposed to be just a tale with no sense of originality to it, but Cui simply smiled in the face of his obsession with his tale as he resumed.

"Certainly. But despite the fact that she was a being of light, from the heavens, she was not that powerful because she was the goddess of fate, and as a result her strengths lay more in 'foretells' rather than actual combat…"

"She withdrew him from the scorching flames of the netherworld and rescued him from eternal torment, but the thing is, she did it at a very ghastly price…"

"he thing is, beings of the heavens cannot actually step into the netherworld and neither can demons and devils step into the high heavens because they are contrasting beings living within contrasting dimensions…"

"Thus, if they decide to force their way in, it would be like a human being in outer space but without any space suit on, such person would definitely see all the oxygen within their body sucked out by the vacuum-like deep space… This analogy is very relative to what happens with angels who cross over to the netherworld or vice versa…"

"Thus, this goddess actually had to burn her not only her essence, but also her life force and Dao just to stay within this 'land of the damned' for long enough to find the poor little soul she was looking for, before eventually taking him away from here, which came with another level of difficulty on its own…"

"Then, after taking him away, without any more strength or powers left in her to reach the heavens, they crashed mid-ascension into a mortal realm which focused heavily on cultivation…"

"Within this mortal realm, there were beings; beasts and humans alike who could flatten mountains just by farting whilst standing atop them, likewise do they have those who could actually pick a planet like the Earth and swap it with Jupiter's position just because they were bored…"

"Since she had lost her divinity and was now an ordinary mortal, she took the name Hao Hui, whilst he, and ex-resident of the netherworld, also got his life back again…"

"They both embarked on the path of cultivation together as time passed with both of them living together, and in almost every single chance he got, he would ask; 'Why me?'"

"A question which was directed at the reason why the goddess of fate would sacrifice so much including her Dao just to save him…"

"There was nothing special about him and neither did he think he had anything to offer to the heavens to make a whole goddess of fate come rescue him…"

"But whenever she hears him ask the same question once again, she also responded with her usual response; nothing other than a simple honest smile which would most times depict that he was just simply naïve…"

"Then after living together for so long they ended up developing feelings for each other and ended up wedding themselves…"

"Their lives was filled with bliss of every forms and kinds from then on, until a massive army of warriors passed through their town that is…"

"This army belonged to the current kingdom where these two new lover birds were currently living and the leader of this army was none other than the only surviving son of the current king of the kingdom, and also the sole heir of the entire kingdom…"

"This little prince fell in love with this fallen celestial, Hao Hui on sight, and who could fault him for that, losing her divinity didn't mean she also lost her innate beauty, and who in their right minds won't fall in love with a beauty of such level?"

"Then, on a faithful day, the prince sent the most powerful experts under his command to go and fetch the goddess Hao Hui, and when Luo Sheng returned from his journey and saw how their home had been turned inside out, and upside down, it became a no-brainer for him to know who the perpetrator was…"

"Thus, without further ado, he headed straight for the royal castle and fought his way from its gates and after a long and blood soaked battle, he eventually reached the inner chambers of the palace, and then finally the prince's chamber…"

"He barged into the door with the highest form of anxiety controlling him, fought his way through the guards and repainted the entire prince's chamber in red and when he actually reached the prince, he saw him standing over the bloodied body of the only person that meant everything to him…."

"Without too much noise or vulgarity, Luo Sheng went into deep rage and slaughtered the prince on the same spot before dropping his weapons and rushing over to the side of the one who gave him a second chance at a blissful life..."

"It was when he got to her that he found out that Hao Hui had actually slits her own wrists in a bid to avoid being tainted by the prince, even when the only person she had gave her powers and status for had yet to touch her…"

"The blood from her wrists streamed through the ground like spilled wine as her face was losing the very last tinge of rosy color it had, but even at that point, she still looked at him with the most loving smile that said; 'I regret nothing',"

"She stared at him so hard, it was as if she wanted to take his image with her even in death…"

"Why?" He asked with a voice that sounded like there was a lump of metal in his throat…"
