Chapter 413
by fanqienovelChapter 413: The Unusual Entrance Method
“Whoosh…”
Seeing Su Wen choose the river of time, Yuanbao let out a small sigh of relief.
The next moment, he looked at Luobao and grinned. “Luobao, great working with you this time!”
Luobao raised an eyebrow, then crossed her arms and turned her head away.
“Who said I’m working with you?”
“I’m only doing this for the God of Wealth; otherwise, I wouldn’t bother.”
Hearing this, Yuanbao chuckled playfully, unfazed.
What he really cared about was the outcome.
As long as the result was achieved and the benefits increased, then it was all worth it.
Maybe Luobao didn’t like him much, but as long as they both served the God of Wealth and worked toward his future, they’d have to collaborate sooner or later.
Sometimes it was intentional; other times, it just happened naturally during negotiations.
“By the way, don’t you think the river of time and the River of Fate will notice you talking like this?”
Su Wen looked at Yuanbao, puzzled.
They’d just made a deal, and those two rivers were probably still watching, right?
The River of Fate didn’t matter—its goal was already achieved, and even if it knew about this, it probably wouldn’t care.
But the river of time… it definitely took a hit this time, didn’t it?
Though Su Wen had a hunch that the eight hundred thousand riches might still leave some profit for the river of time, overall, it was clear the river of time came out on the losing end this time.
“Don’t worry, God of Wealth,” Yuanbao said with a smile. “Without your permission, or if you don’t give a reward, the river of time isn’t allowed to keep watching you for long.”
“So, even if we’re just talking—or even cursing—they won’t know.”
“Otherwise, the river of time could just look directly at you and talk to you. What would be the point of me then?”
Nearby, Luobao nodded and added, “God of Wealth, the River of Fate has similar restrictions. But since you carry its blessing of fortune, I wouldn’t recommend cursing it unless you really have to.”
“After all, cursing the River of Fate while benefiting from its blessing would be… awkward.”
Su Wen nodded. “Got it.”
He then turned to Yuanbao and Luobao.
“You two did a good job this time. Well done.”
Luobao’s face lit up with a smile, but then she suddenly said, “Oh, God of Wealth, I forgot to mention—since traveling to the sub-timelines relies on the River of Fate’s power, we’ve secured a bulk deal with them.”
“That includes bringing the Star God and the God of Theater to the sub-timelines, as well as retrieving the soul of the Shadow God from there…”
“So, I also got a kickback from your transaction with the River of Fate.”
“With the support of the kickback from the riches, my divine essence has surpassed six points, and my level has reached the mid-tier.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the air around them fell silent.
Yuanbao’s expression also became slightly awkward.
“God of Wealth, with the kickback from the river of time, my divine essence has also surpassed nine points, and my level will soon reach the high tier.”
Yuanbao quickly explained as he sensed Su Wen’s gaze upon him, “It’s true!”
“I think it will happen soon.”
“Perhaps in a few days, it should be achieved.”
Su Wen: “……”
Yuanbao’s explanation sounded a bit weak!
In fact, there was no need to explain; those who understood already did!
He firmly believed that one day he would make use of Yuanbao’s Little Gold Vault.
It was always good to save some money in advance for unexpected needs.
Previously, when several sub-timelines had summoned the river of time to intervene and calm down the enemies, he felt that Yuanbao’s Little Gold Vault had played a significant role.
“Alright.”
Su Wen spoke, “Yuanbao, you stand to my left.
“Luobao, you stand to my right.”
“Let’s three of us together light incense and offer our respects.”
“At the same time… communicate with Time and Space, borrowing my consciousness from the sub-timeline through the power of time and space, while performing the memorial ceremony.”
“This can be considered the first meeting among fellow travelers of time.”
“If one day in the future there is lasting peace and all crises are resolved, and I need to become part of history as a matter of record, perhaps this moment will be a particularly important historical knowledge point.”
“Today holds significant historical turning point.”
“Today, the communications and interactions among major timelines open a new starting point and a new historical phase.”
As he spoke, Su Wen’s expression turned solemn and serious. He began the memorial ceremony with the two divine artifacts, Yuanbao and Luobao.
After placing the precious incense dedicated to the sub-timeline’s God of Wealth, the burning incense floated in the air, swaying and shimmering, as if undergoing profound and unknown changes and mysteries.
“Buzz!”
Suspended in the center, the portrait of the God of Wealth, dark in color, quivered slightly.
In the next moment, under the influence of the incense, the portrait began to emanate a gaze that seemed to observe them.
As the portrait shifted its gaze to meet Su Wen’s eyes, both of them paused in surprise.
What was going on?
The sub-timeline’s God of Wealth was bewildered because, according to the earlier situation, he should have been dead!
Why was he suddenly here?
Moreover, standing below was someone who looked just like him, or rather, that was “him”!
And Su Wen was confused due to the way the consciousness of the sub-timeline’s God of Wealth appeared.
In his mind, a wisp of consciousness crossing the boundaries of time and space would manifest as a shadowy figure.
But he never expected it to attach itself to the portrait of the God of Wealth.
This somewhat bizarre scene, if not for his understanding of the causes and effects as well as the entire process, would have truly made him think that the headquarters of the divine fate bearers had something strange and sinister happening with an immortal half-god presiding over it.
One could only say, the river of time truly was remarkable!
The method of this entrance and communication exceeded his imagination, completely beyond his contemplation.
It felt a bit eerie.
“Yuanbao, the river of time… is it seeking revenge on us?”
Su Wen asked after a moment of silence.
“It shouldn’t be, right?”
Yuanbao replied uncertainly, thinking the river of time couldn’t be that petty.
Moreover, this method of revenge was quite strange!
It could be earthy, but this kind of operation was clearly more like something from the underworld!
“Right now, I’m a bit confused about the situation.”
The sub-timeline’s God of Wealth, wearing the black and white mask from the portrait, asked in bewilderment, “Can someone explain to me what exactly is going on?”
“Why am I here, and… why do I appear in the portrait?”
“Isn’t this a bit absurd?”
“And is this… the main Time and Space?”
