i'm pretty sure this guy is not the same as future guy, since that divinity wasnt taking a generals face but a normal cultivator, also he doesnt like a greedy person so he must have a good character, i think he might be an ally of gqc.
Will it be just as assumed by many? or will it be a red herring? ......Anyways, [Mystery of All Beings] activate! I know the villain won't be defeated this early in the game!
I bet anything that this Divinity is going to take a liking to GQS and help him out somehow. It'll be a reminder that not all "insert enemy race" are evil.
