in the edge

Chapter 611 Du Chengfeng

When the nine Du Chengfengs carrying the power of Wenquxingjun appeared in the sky, all the powerful people were excited.

Although these powerful beings could feel that these extraterritorial demons carried the power of Wenqu Star Lord, the ability to mass-produce extraterritorial demons still made some powerful beings tremble with fear - some powerful beings had even begun to speculate whether the original extraterritorial demon was also concocted by Wenqu Star Lord, otherwise it would not make sense for this extraterritorial demon to suddenly appear.

But at this moment, Wenquxingjun was too lazy to care about the speculations of these powerful people.

In other words, he no longer needs to care about what these powerful people think.

It's just because he has become an absolute strong man at this moment. The strong don't need to care about the will of the weak. The strong only need to do his own thing. On the contrary, the weak must follow and obey the strong - and this is the way of survival for the weak. After all, the strong can crush these weak people on the spot with just an idea.

"So... I must become stronger."

Wenquxingjun thought so.

All the Wenquxing Gods thought so.

They must become stronger, they must find the way forward, otherwise what awaits them will be death - perhaps from the moment they were born into this chaotic world, they have had no other choice but to become stronger, even stronger, to become the strongest, and even after becoming the strongest they must become even stronger... They must continue to become stronger, they must continue to be stronger.

Or rather, it's not just them, even those powerful ones who have already fallen. Although it is true that they have fallen, they have never lost the instinct to become stronger.

You must become stronger, you must become stronger. After all, strength is everything. Strength is everything.

After all, this is the instinct of living things.

As long as people are alive, they will want to become stronger and become even stronger.

Is there anyone who wouldn't think so?
"I...wait a minute!"

High in the sky, among the nine Du Chengfengs, one Du Chengfeng raised his hand.

"You guys go first, there's a pot sitting at my house."

"Is this something a human being can say?"

Seeing that someone in the team actually quit the job, the other eight Du Chengfengs immediately became angry.

"What are you cooking? Why didn't you tell me about this good news?"

"of course……"

Du Chengfeng, who wanted to go back and continue cooking, scratched his head, but was suddenly stuck for a moment.

Although in his impression, he should be cooking something at this time...but here comes the problem, what dish is he cooking?

It seemed as if he couldn't remember clearly, and he couldn't come up with any clue after careful thinking. It was as if something in his brain was broken, and he couldn't figure out the reason no matter how hard he tried.

After seeing him like this, the other Du Chengfengs also shook their heads.

"You are stupid. You have no food to eat and you are still talking nonsense."

One of them, Du Chengfeng, couldn't help but start cursing.

"You failed at the most critical moment. You have no professional ethics at all. I'll sew your mouth shut later and you'll behave yourself."

"Okay, you can't blame him for this."

Seeing that the team was already at risk of internal strife before they even arrived at the destination, the other Du Chengfeng quickly tried to smooth things over.

"It's normal to have confused memories. After all, our memories are actually quite confused... Just, don't forget that we were created by Wenquxingjun, and we have a mission to fulfill."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other Du Chengfengs also felt the power belonging to Wenquxingjun in them - but this power was not a confinement or a seal. It was more like a will buried deep in their hearts, driving them to complete the task they were supposed to complete.

That is, kill their real bodies and kill the last Du Chengfeng.

"I don't mean to say, is this really necessary?"

Du Chengfeng, who wanted to go back to cook and was the first one to quit, spoke again.

"Well, although I can understand that there can only be one me in the world, is there a possibility that as long as we don't meet each other, it is equivalent to not knowing, then there is indeed only one me in the world, and we can win directly without fighting."

"you……"

The other Du Chengfengs were so shocked that they were speechless for a long time. They could never have imagined that they were all the same, but this Du Chengfeng could come up with such a shameless method.

The most important thing is that this method sounds reasonable.

As long as they haven't seen it, the target is dead. As for what to do after the target is dead, Wenquxingjun didn't say it anyway - and this means that as long as they are willing to directly admit that their target is dead, they will be free on the spot.

As for whether the target is dead or not, it’s none of their business. They have already confirmed it anyway.

If Wenquxingjun has any objections, the worst that can happen is that he can go and confirm it again himself.

"But...it's still not too good, right?"

After the other Du Chengfengs were silent for a moment, the will of Wenquxingjun buried deep in their hearts finally prevailed.

Only by killing their original selves can these clones truly become complete.

So no matter what, it is necessary to take action. After all, only in this way can...

"To become stronger?"

It was at this time that another Du Chengfeng raised his hand.

"I have a question, guys."

"explain."

The other Du Chengfengs all looked over.

Although they were on their way, they still had time to talk to each other.

"Your question is..."

"Do we really need to become stronger?"

The other Du Chengfeng looked at the others in confusion.

"Have you ever thought about what to do after becoming stronger?"

"After becoming stronger, of course..."

Du Chengfeng was about to speak to the others, but he was stuck.

Yes, after becoming stronger, what should we do?

If they were still very weak, then there would be no need to even think about this question. After all, if they were not strong enough, they would not even have the qualification to survive - but that was the problem. Even if they were just clones, they were still at the level of powerful beings, and in terms of combat effectiveness, they were even far superior to most of the powerful beings.

They had no idea how strong they were, but they at least knew that they were no longer weak.

So, this problem was put before them.

What should I do after I become stronger? "I would probably want to open a store."

After a moment's silence, Du Chengfeng spoke out his thoughts.

"Why are you looking at me like that? You are all me, so you should understand my thoughts, right? I have always wanted to try my business talent, but it seems that I have never had the opportunity to show it... What? You said that my skills are useless? How is that possible! If I can fight on my own, at least I won't be charged protection fees!"

"Look at what you have accomplished!"

The other Du Chengfeng couldn't help but curse.

"So you have all these abilities, but you only think about such a small thing? Don't you have any bigger ambitions? Can't you have some lofty ideals like a normal person?"

"So what is your lofty ideal?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other Du Chengfengs also looked over.

Another self actually had such lofty ideals. The mere fact that this sentence could be said was enough to shock the rest of Du Chengfeng.

They were all very curious about what this other self's lofty ideal was...

"Of course it's a woman!"

Facing everyone's gaze, the other Du Chengfeng spoke seriously.

"In my opinion, the most important thing is to find a woman who can understand and love each other... What do you mean by that expression! Are you complaining that there are too few of you? Of course, true love is exclusive! It is the only one! Do you know what pure love is? If this is not a lofty ideal, what else is a lofty ideal?"

"……ha."

This time, Du Chengfeng simply didn't bother to pay attention to the other few people.

They had never expected that they would have such a side to themselves. If they had known that this beast would say such words, they should have attacked together and beat him to death on the spot - although from the other party's point of view, this statement was not necessarily wrong. After all, mutual love means finding another person who is completely compatible with you, which can be an impossible thing. It is not wrong to say that it is a lofty ideal.

However, his vision is too low. With his little achievement, he is even worse than the businessman mentioned above.

"So..."

Du Chengfeng, who initially wanted to quit, spoke again.

"I told you that you should cook first? You didn't believe me at that time... Do you really think cooking is such a simple thing?"

This time, Du Chengfeng had nothing to say in rebuttal.

It seems to be true, at least more true than the other two - although strictly speaking, cooking is definitely not as profitable as doing business, but the study of skills is something that can be pursued as an ideal.

So the problem lies here.

Everyone seems to have no ambition. Even if they become stronger, that's all they can achieve. So is there really a need for them to continue to become stronger?
"Why don't we just break up and go do what we want to do."

Du Chengfeng put forward his own opinions.

"Anyway, we don't have any obsession with becoming stronger anymore, so there's no point in continuing to fight... Instead of wasting time, or even lives, fighting to the death, why not just do whatever you want to do."

Having said this, Du Chengfeng raised his hand.

"I vote for my opinion, what about you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, four Du Chengfengs raised their hands, and the vote count reached five to four.

Obviously, the last four Du Chengfengs still wanted to fight. On the one hand, the will of Wenquxingjun buried deep in their hearts was urging them to go for the battle. On the other hand, it was also because they themselves had a need to become stronger - although they themselves were not clear about what becoming stronger meant and where its use lay, but they at least felt that becoming stronger was not a bad thing.

Since it is not a bad thing, then of course we have to become stronger. Having something is better than having nothing. This is what they think.

"But... we won."

Du Chengfeng, the five who didn't want to do it, scratched his head.

"Five to four, you lose."

"You guys actually want to vote on this kind of thing?"

The four Du Chengfeng who still wanted to continue fighting were dumbfounded.

"What the hell is wrong with your brains? Why don't we just have a fight?"

"Like that Wenquxingjun?"

Those who didn't want to fight shook their heads.

"Forget it. We don't want to attack our own people... Besides, it's five against four now. Are you sure you can win?"

"..."

The remaining four Du Chengfeng fell into silence.

In fact, it is difficult to confirm. After all, their strength is similar. This means that once a fight starts, if it is five against four, one person on the side of four will inevitably be attacked by two people - one against two is definitely a loser, and if you can't win, you have to lie down. Once the number of people starts to decrease, the situation will evolve into three against one, four against one, or even five against one.

Although they would fight desperately if a fight really came to a head, and could even exert 120% or even 200% of their strength at critical moments, fighting against themselves always felt a bit...

What's more, won't the other party fight hard?

They all grew out of the same body, and even their fighting styles were copied from the same mold. How could one of them be better than the other?

"How about this."

Du Chengfeng proposed a compromise solution.

"Those who want to fight can fight, and those who don't want to fight can do whatever they want. How about that?"

As soon as this was said, everyone nodded immediately. After all, in the current situation, this is really a good idea. It not only avoids internal disputes, but also takes care of those who want to continue fighting. It can really be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The only problem is that the team's combat effectiveness will be severely weakened due to non-combat casualties, but this doesn't really matter, at least it can motivate them to continue fighting.

But this is where the problem lies.

Du Chengfeng, who was the first to quit, suddenly laughed bitterly.

"Probably. I can't leave."

Feeling the surging power and impulse in his heart, Du Chengfeng, who wanted to cook, shook his head and sighed.

"You probably all have sensed it, right? The power that Wenquxingjun left us is not that simple... It's not that we can't defy the will of this power, but it's constantly stirring up my will to fight."

"..."

At this moment, the other Du Chengfengs also smiled bitterly.

Aren't they the same right now?

There is no such thing as giving up the fight. The surging fighting spirit in their hearts is urging them on, telling them that only by killing their original selves can they become their complete selves again.
