Chapter 544: The God of Wealth and Your Talent

Three days later, above the Imperial Capital of China, black lightning danced across the sky, casting a foreboding sense of destruction over the world.

Su Wen stood by the window, gazing at this all-too-familiar scene, and let out a soft sigh.

He knew it was time to leave.

If he didn’t want to go, the options were clear: pay with money or pay with his life.

Just two days earlier, Li Dong and his family had appeared, neatly dressed, near the Imperial Capital of China.

Recently, their clothing and living arrangements had been personally overseen by the Wind God.

Of course, when Li Dong encountered the Wind God again, he couldn’t help but feel a wave of panic.

But after the Wind God’s explanation, he came to understand the situation.

“Old friend, it’s time to go.”

Su Wen’s thoughts stirred, and he sent a message to the God of Theater, who was observing soldiers training at the border.

“Understood.”

As soon as the words were spoken, the God of Theater appeared beside Su Wen.

“Aren’t you planning to revive your family in this timeline?”

The God of Theater’s eyes flickered as he asked softly.

Su Wen remained silent, only releasing a deep sigh.

How could he revive them?

His current self in this timeline was still so weak.

Not only could he not afford the cost, but even if he could, it wouldn’t be worth it.

Could such a weak God of Wealth truly protect his family and friends even if they were revived?

It would only lead to another round of destruction and heartbreak.

Most importantly, seventy trillion in wealth—he simply didn’t have that kind of money.

And if you really thought about it, seventy trillion could accomplish so much!

For starters, it could easily elevate his comrades to the true god realm, right?

The God of Theater could revive!

But for himself… he’d have to wait a little longer.

“I understand.”

After saying this, the God of Theater didn’t press further.

The God of Wealth had it tough.

This ability to cross time and space wasn’t something just anyone could handle.

Only someone as determined as the God of Wealth could manage it; anyone else might have lost their sanity long ago.

“In the past few days, the resources sent by the Shadow God have been enough to revive her mother.”

Su Wen murmured softly, “As for whether there will be a second tragedy, I think… it’s up to the Shadow God himself.”

“I’ve done all I can.”

For the past three days, every two hours, a shadow warrior had been delivering the supplies gathered by the Shadow God.

Even after the River of Fate took its cut, the five hundred thousand riches needed to revive Mo Caixia were finally enough!

The cost to cross the boundary between the virtual and the real was still a bit short, but not by much.

“Buzz!”

“Buzz!”

As Su Wen focused, two ripples extended from the void and appeared beside him.

After Su Wen and the God of Theater took a careful look around, they stepped boldly into the ripples.

In the next moment, the ripples dissipated.

At the same time, the black lightning swirling above, like a scene from the apocalypse, vanished in an instant.

It disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed, leaving nothing behind.

“Sigh…”

Not far away, the Star God seemed to sense something and let out a soft sigh.

He knew his two comrades from the main Time and Space had departed.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a thunderclap roared across the sky.

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh…”

Unusual phenomena began to rise and swirl above.

The endless echoes of dramatic sounds, the reverberating conflicts of the theater, all seemed to resonate with the phenomena forming in the sky.

“Hmm…”

With a soft murmur, the God of Theater, whose cultivation had reached the Emperor Level, appeared at the border of China.

“Am I… back again?”

The God of Theater stared at his hands, then at the familiar yet strange border defenses nearby, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He knew of his own demise, yet here he was, truly present in this world, free of any constraints.

Had someone brought him back?

“God of Theater, welcome back!”

The Star God, standing on a shimmering path of starlight, appeared before the God of Theater, smiling warmly.

“Star God, was this your doing?”

The God of Theater looked at him, stunned.

“No!”

The Star God shook his head and then raised his right hand, pointing upward.

“This is the work of the Wealth God and you!”

God of Theater: “???”

After a moment of silence, the God of Theater asked seriously, “Please explain. It seems a lot has happened while I was away!”

“Hmm… The Arrow Realm aberrants that have been climbing and scurrying along the border have disappeared.”

“It looks like we’ve achieved victory!”

…

Main Time and Space.

“Whether it’s the concentration of spiritual energy, the state of the people, or the readiness for battle, we are completely different from them.”

After sensing for a moment, the God of Theater sighed.

“Indeed.”

Su Wen nodded and said, “But it’s because of the sacrifices and explorations made in each sub-timeline that we have our strength and prosperity in the main Time and Space.”

“And we’re still not strong enough!”

The God of Theater was about to speak but seemed to remember something, slowly closing his mouth instead.

After chatting with Su Wen for a few moments, he turned and vanished.

This trip to sub-timeline 02 had greatly increased his understanding of the war in the Arrow Realm and the state of beings from the mystical realm.

Therefore, returning to build the Theater World and normalize its simulation power would be his main goal for the time to come.

“The God of Theater is acting with such urgency; did something significant happen over there?”

The Star God furrowed his brow and asked.

“Nothing major; everything is within our expectations.”

Su Wen spoke in a somber tone, “It’s just that the Wealth God from that timeline exposed his true name, and unsurprisingly… his family and friends were all tragically killed.”

“Even classmates from elementary school, the Arrow Realm didn’t spare them.”

The Star God’s breath caught in his throat, then he said solemnly, “Don’t worry, let’s consider this matter closed!”

Su Wen shook his head and replied, “At least it seems like sub-timeline 03 will be even worse than sub-timeline 02, not better.”

“I know, but I was only referring to the main Time and Space.”

“I understand what you mean, but just thinking about what the parents in the sub-timelines will face due to these consequences makes me feel uneasy.”

“I have an idea.”

The Star God’s eyes moved as he said calmly, “We now have enough power and don’t fear the Arrow Realm’s opinions of us.”

“If it doesn’t work, should I go with you to the Arrow Realm?”

“We could slay all those clans from your memories—how does that sound?”

The Wealth God’s misfortune is worthy of sympathy!

But the Arrow Realm aberrants deserve to be punished!

Despicable!

Hateful!

Even if there will be a need for training in the future, it should be fine to cut down one group and leave another.

“No need.”

Su Wen’s expression remained unchanged as he spoke, “In sub-timeline 02, I have already avenged my family.”

Just then, Su Wen suddenly felt something was off.

In the previous sub-timeline, the life-saving crystal that the Star God had gifted him trembled slightly.

“I have things to take care of, so I’ll be busy now.”

After saying that, Su Wen strode toward his office.

Beside him, the Star God watched Su Wen’s slightly hurried demeanor and slowly lowered his head.

“Arrow Realm…”

“It seems the strategy needs to change.”
