Chapter 141: The Great Wrongdoer
"God of Martial Arts, luck is such a mysterious thing," the God of Theater glanced at Ao Xiu and transmitted his voice. "If this Little White Dragon really has such good luck, maybe we shouldn’t kill him so casually. It could cause problems."
"Of course, I have another idea. Since you say he can inherit your divine status, that suggests he must have some connection to the God of Wealth. Think about it; isn’t there something of yours attached to this Little White Dragon?"
"According to this Little White Dragon, he has had smooth sailing and good luck since birth, attracting wealth without any hindrance. Doesn’t it sound like he resembles the God of Wealth even more than you do?"
Su Wen let out a bitter laugh and replied, "Don’t say you feel that way; I feel it too. How did the symbol of wealth, the God of Wealth, become so poor in my case?"
Being poor was just one aspect. On the other hand, he was quite unlucky. Before crossing the timeline into the future sub-timelines, he encountered all sorts of fresh ways of dying. Given the uniqueness of the God of Wealth, it was understandable that the beings from the Arrow Realm would go mad trying to kill him. But the situations he found himself in when visiting the sub-timelines were equally disastrous.
The first time, he was directly devoured by a ferocious beast. The second time, while hesitating outside Jiang City, he disrupted wartime regulations and was shot by the city guards. The third time, while studying martial arts theories in Jiang City, a war broke out within, a traitor emerged victorious, and a wave of black energy entered his body, causing him to go berserk and die. The fourth time was an accident, and he was forcibly recalled using wealth. Even though the fifth time, he was killed by Fighting God’s trace of consciousness and not by anyone else, the duration of his survival was still too short. It felt as if the entire world had turned against him after he traveled to the future, with all kinds of events trying to kill him.
Only by the sixth time did he manage to survive for a bit longer. Well… he felt it wasn’t that his luck had improved, but that during the time he helped Wealth Shadow gain a promotion, he had paid to bribe the river of time. After that, he continuously dealt with the river of time, which gradually lengthened his survival time in the sub-timelines.
One could not rule out the possibility that the river of time deliberately targeted him, considering he had disrupted the order of time and space. But the river of time is in the business of making profits; after all, why would it chase away a customer? So another possibility is that his luck was very poor, but by paying to smooth things over with the river of time, it granted him some protective luck.
After all, the blessings deep within the river of time could not be limited to just simple isolation effects. It was likely that enhancing his luck to extend his exploration time in the sub-timelines was the true meaning behind those blessings. Thinking from another perspective, if he were the river of time and waited so many years for business to open, only for the client to cool off within days? What kind of business could that be?
And given the frenzied targeting from the beings of the Arrow Realm regarding the wealth on himself, it was clear that wealth must be incredibly important! After all, regardless of the Star God or the God of Theater, they just wanted to hunt him down, even without understanding chaos in time and space or the powers that granted these abilities.
Thus, this brings up another question: does the God of Wealth’s fortune reside within Ao Xiu?
That’s why Ao Xiu has such incredible luck, with wealth pouring in uncontrollably.
As the God of Wealth, isn’t it natural for wealth to flow endlessly?
Isn’t his innate talent precisely Abundant Wealth?
He had once wondered if splitting Abundant Wealth into two sub-talents would make the name seem a bit off.
The sub-talent chaos in time and space deals with Time and Space.
The sub-talent Money Breaks Duality deals with Duality.
Since both Time and Space and Duality are involved, shouldn’t it be called something other than Abundant Wealth?
Now it seems, Abundant Wealth has deeper implications!
This raises another question: is he… essentially taking the fall for Ao Xiu?
If he dies, the God of Wealth’s position would transfer to Ao Xiu, and once the Arrow Realm realizes they didn’t gain the expected benefits from killing the God of Wealth, they’d naturally stop targeting the successor.
Especially since this God of Wealth is on their side.
Thinking this, Su Wen raised an eyebrow.
Damn it, he feels like a total sucker!
With that thought, Su Wen’s gaze toward Ao Xiu grew suspicious.
Maybe he should just kill him?
Perhaps if he did, the God of Wealth’s fortune would return.
"My lords, this humble dragon has said all he can," Ao Xiu said, trembling as he sensed Su Wen’s killing intent. "If there’s anything you desire from me, I would gladly offer my heart and soul!"
"I only ask that you spare my life. I can serve you tea, fetch water, or do anything you wish!"
His thoughts were simple: no matter what, survival was the priority.
Perhaps because he had gained too easily from external sources, he didn’t care about material things.
The only thing he truly valued was his own life.
Especially now, when the other party clearly wanted him dead.
And he was completely clueless about his surroundings—acting tough now would only speed up his demise.
Most importantly, he was utterly baffled!
He had been peacefully eating at home when suddenly the world spun, and he found himself trapped in a massive black cage.
After struggling, he realized the cage was unbreakable.
Even the expensive self-defense techniques he had bought were useless here, reduced to mere decorations.
Then two masked figures appeared, claiming to be his successors.
At first, hearing the word "successor" gave him some relief.
A successor meant an inheritor.
Taking him away must mean they wanted him to inherit something, or so he thought.
But as soon as one masked figure mentioned inheritance, the other erupted with killing intent, seemingly intent on ending him.
After explaining his lucky talent, the previously calm masked figure suddenly radiated murderous intent, as if he too wanted to eliminate him.
Who did he even offend?
If he had committed some crime, couldn’t he at least understand why he was about to die?
He knew nothing about gods or the God of Martial Arts!
What was all this nonsense?
How did he even get involved?
"You’re so cooperative; I almost feel bad going after you," Su Wen sighed. "How about you threaten me a little?"
Ao Xiu: "…"
Is this guy insane?
"No matter what, Ao Xiu can’t be let go," the God of Theater said. "Do you have any ideas?"
"If not, I’ll handle it."
"If fortune wants to backlash, let it backlash on me!"
"After all, I’m lacking too much at this level, and that crucial breakthrough remains elusive."
"Maybe that destined backlash of fortune could give me a clue."
Hearing this, Ao Xiu was so terrified his soul nearly left his body.
Without hesitation, he opened his dragon mouth and spat out a Dragon Ball glowing with golden light.
