"There is a saying that rings true: to kill or not to kill, that is the question." Chen Xuan’s lips curled into a playful smirk. "Daoist Lord Zixu, you have the strength to put me to death, but the moment you harbor the intent to kill, every move and strike you make alters the variables of my future. It will endlessly generate new variables, causing the final outcome to potentially backfire—unless, of course, you do not wish to kill me, in which case you would have no impact on my variables at all."
"Evil Heaven Emperor, what you say is quite true." Jiang Qingyang fully agreed with Chen Xuan's assessment. "It is indeed, as you put it, a deeply contradictory problem. At my level, every strike influences the flow of past and future destinies. When the target of my strike is someone like you—a being of infinite variables—each move I make multiplies your potential outcomes by the hundreds. Two moves, and those hundreds are squared. In this way, the variables become truly endless, and I cannot foresee what unknown consequences might be triggered."
"Given this, I have no choice but to make it a quick battle. I must take you down within a thousand moves to minimize the variance of the results."
