Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM naturally wanted Xu Yuan to ask that question. But just now, although Tyrant HIM wasn't targeting Xu Yuan, it did seem like he was excluding him.
So when he looked at Xu Yuan, there was a hint of guilt in his eyes. He didn't feel comfortable asking Xu Yuan to ask the question he wanted to know.
Fan Village HIM was similar. He also wanted to know the answer. But to be honest, Xu Yuan didn't actually mind the question Tyrant HIM asked.
Xu Yuan was originally an outsider. It was natural for Tyrant HIM and the others to question it. If Xu Yuan had been in their shoes, he would've asked the same.
But Xu Yuan already had a rough idea of the answer to that question.
What Xu Yuan originally wanted to ask the true HIM was about the relationship between himself and HIM.
That question had already been answered by Tyrant HIM.
Xu Yuan had once suspected that maybe he was Herobrine, and perhaps due to memory loss or some other reason, he became Xu Yuan.
But the true HIM had already given the answer, Xu Yuan was just Xu Yuan.
So there wasn't anything left that Xu Yuan wanted to ask.
As for why the true HIM chose Xu Yuan, it was probably because Xu Yuan understood everything about MC and loved everything about MC.
He had a god's perspective and could step outside to deal with the problems of this world.
As the saying goes, 'the onlooker sees clearly while the player is lost.'
Xu Yuan was that onlooker. The perspective he saw and the one HIM saw were completely different.
That's why the true HIM chose someone completely unrelated to himself like Xu Yuan.
Although he had experienced many things, the versions of him from different planes and periods had never been able to step outside and solve each world's problems.
No matter which world he is in, although he always wanted to make the world he was in better, but he never gave up the right and power to control this world.
After experiencing so much, perhaps he also understood this point.
One's nature is hard to change, people are very hard to change.
No matter how much more he experiences, if it is still him controlling the world, the ending won't change much. So that's why he chose someone else.
Actually, admitting that you are not the most suitable god is a very difficult thing, it is a denial of oneself. But the real HIM actually managed to do this. And the reason he could do it, is exactly because he loves this world.
That's why he possesses this power now. That's why the feeling he gives now carries that kind of divine, inviolable majesty.
In other words, only by giving up the obsession of being the god who controls everything, can he become a true god.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan looked at Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM, and after thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan decided to fulfill their wish.
Xu Yuan himself no longer had anything he wanted to ask, the current him could already understand what the real HIM thought and felt.
All of this could now be explained.
Although Xu Yuan didn't know what kind of test the real HIM would make them go through, and didn't know whether Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM would still remain in this world by then, but no matter what, Xu Yuan was confident he could defeat them.
So for now, he would treat it as doing them a personal favor.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan looked at the real HIM and smiled, saying, "Why did you choose me, this 'outsider'?"
Hearing Xu Yuan's question, both Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM were a little surprised.
Although they just now had really hoped Xu Yuan would help them ask this question, they also knew clearly that the chances of Xu Yuan asking it for them were not high. But they didn't expect Xu Yuan would actually choose to help them.
At this moment, the two of them looked at Xu Yuan with slightly grateful eyes.
Hearing Xu Yuan's question, the real HIM also looked at Xu Yuan with a bit of surprise. Seeing the expression on his face, the real HIM finally understood why he would help Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM ask this question.
From Xu Yuan's expression of complete understanding, the real HIM knew, he probably no longer had any doubts.
Asking this question was equivalent to doing Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM a favor.
Seeing this, the real HIM did not answer Xu Yuan's question, but instead looked at the three of them and asked in return, "What is the definition of the word 'outsider'?"
Hearing the real HIM's words, the three were pondering, but the real HIM continued, "This world is not a world I created."
"I merely arrived in this world earlier than you. To this world, all of us, including myself, are 'outsiders.'"
It must be said, the real HIM truly sees through everything clearly. That's why he has this kind of understanding.
Just as he said, every person in this world, to this world, is actually an 'outsider.' Everyone is just a passerby witnessing this world's growth. So the focus was never on people, but on this world.
Only by understanding this, can the world operate better.
After hearing the real HIM's words, Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM looked at each other.
The two of them still couldn't reach the real HIM's level of insight for now, so they naturally couldn't quite understand the meaning of his words.
Seeing this, the real HIM explained as well, "You are versions of me from different timelines and dimensions. I have experienced everything you experienced, and witnessed everything you witnessed."
Saying this, the real HIM looked toward Tyrant HIM, "At first, I only wanted to protect my people… Then I became greedy, I wanted the whole world to bow at my feet."
Then the real HIM looked at Fan Village HIM, "Later, my thoughts changed again, I didn't want to see war, didn't want to see this paradise I loved so dearly covered in smoke and fire."
"So I chose an extremely insane path to make the world peaceful…"
Saying this, the real HIM let out a long sigh, then shook his head and said, "I've had many experiences, tried many times. Each time I could almost stand at the top of the world."
"But each time, the ending was not the one I hoped for…"
"I went over it again and again… Trying to figure out where the problem was."
Then, the real HIM continued with some emotion and relief, "Turns out, the problem wasn't in some detail."
"It was me."
"I craved power and control, I thought I could make the world I was in better. I always tried to change the world in my own way."
"But I was wrong. Perhaps I wasn't the most suitable person."
Saying this, the real HIM turned his gaze to Xu Yuan, "So that's why I chose what you call an 'outsider.'"
Then, the real HIM looked at the three of them and continued, "Of course, the 'outsider' you speak of isn't just him."
Hearing this, Tyrant HIM, Fan Village HIM, and even Xu Yuan were shocked.
"Not just him?…"
The three of them thought this would be a competition among the three HIMs, but unexpectedly the real HIM dropped another bombshell.
Seeing their shocked faces, the real HIM didn't keep them in suspense, and said directly, "I've already answered the questions from you three."
"Next is the time for you to prove yourselves."
Saying that, the real HIM waved his hand, and the mist in the entire space instantly dispersed.
Below the clouds appeared numerous islands and terrains made of blocks from the overworld.
Looking around, the whole space was divided into seven areas. The terrain covered most of the overworld's geography. There were deserts, snowfields, mountains, forests, plains, grasslands, etc...
Seeing the terrain below, the three were all confused. Just as they were about to speak, the real HIM explained their doubts, "You are versions of me from different timelines and dimensions, and also the ones I chose."
"You were born different from others. You were born with great power. It's exactly because of the power you possess that you could reach the top of the world."
"That's why so many people believed in you."
Saying this, the real HIM looked at the three of them and continued, "If you were born the same as others, would you still have everything you have now? If you didn't have frightening power, would anyone follow you, believe in you?"
"A ruler who relies solely on power to gain respect is never the most suitable ruler. Once someone appears who has even greater power, his rule will be overthrown."
"So, this will be the place where you prove yourselves."
Saying this, the real HIM looked down at the regions below and began explaining, "This place is created by me. You will enter here as ordinary players, and participate in this trial together with other 'outsiders.'"
Hearing this, Tyrant HIM couldn't help but ask, "Other 'outsiders'? Who else is there?…"
Hearing Tyrant HIM's question, the real HIM patiently replied, "The other 'outsiders' refer to any creature in this world that voluntarily joins."
Hearing that, Fan Village HIM couldn't help but ask, "All creatures??"
The real HIM nodded, "Yes, all creatures. Every living being in this world has the qualification to enter this trial."
