Chapter 261: Language Traps

Su Wen looked at the woman, remaining silent.

He realized that her words had a double meaning.

Especially the statement about the God of Martial Arts cultivating in seclusion for many years; he felt uncertain about it.

Was there really a God of Martial Arts, a divine fate bearer who had been hidden away for years, and was she aware of this? Or was she simply acknowledging his strength?

Such a powerful God of Martial Arts couldn’t possibly be a newly emerged Great God of Wealth.

As long as he kept quiet, she would have to continue talking to avoid an awkward silence.

“Our clan has received information that you have opened a brand-new path in Huaxia called martial arts, to spread the teachings,” the woman said. “In this current era, I do not deny that becoming a true god in this way is possible, but I wonder if you should consider it further?”

“Walking the path of others is better than forging your own path.”

“And since you are a divine fate bearer, why abandon the precious treasures to repair ordinary tools instead?”

Su Wen’s eyes moved. The Body Refinement Method had only been fully rolled out in the military due to time constraints.

In the public sphere, discussions had just begun, and the Ministry of Education had only recently announced the martial arts reform.

Did she perceive his promotion of the Body Refinement Method as a step toward becoming a true god?

And it seemed that this path might actually be viable!

“Why does your clan place such importance on the Great God of Wealth?” Su Wen suddenly asked. “Moreover, you address me as Great God, while you call him Great God of Wealth.”

“In this era, is there something special about the Great God of Wealth?”

In truth, he could probably guess the Great God of Wealth’s significance without asking.

Chaos in time and space!

Money Breaks Duality!

Even if his second sub-talent had not fully manifested, he knew well that this talent was anything but ordinary.

The ability to traverse through time and space and even allow the ingot to communicate directly with the river of time showcased the Great God of Wealth’s extraordinary nature.

Yet understanding any details about the relationship between this era and the Great God of Wealth could be beneficial.

“In this era, the Deity of Wealth in Office!” The woman fell silent for a moment before speaking again. “Thus, the Great God of Wealth will never fall to such petty hands.”

“The mere Snow Spirit Clan, as insignificant as ants.”

“If they could slay the Deity of Wealth in Office, it would truly be the greatest joke of all time!”

Su Wen raised an eyebrow. The Great God of Wealth is in office in this era?

In the Arrow Realm, celestial officers are in office, and Earth Deities are in office.

And above them, is there an even more significant true god in office?

If the Great God of Wealth is in office in this era, then who held the position in the previous era and the era before that?

Star God?

God of Theater?

Thinking of this, Su Wen asked the woman about his doubts.

From the concept of eras to the various issues regarding divine fate bearers.

Even questions about the Holy Spirit clan, he inquired in a tone that sounded a bit indifferent.

It was clear that she intended to answer his questions, appearing friendly towards him.

However, he did not change his inner viewpoint due to her attitude.

Especially since the Ghost Spirit clan had just attempted to capture him.

If his strength were even slightly weaker, today’s situation might have changed dramatically.

So, facing such a powerful being at the Demigod Level, Su Wen continued to immerse himself in the Fighting God’s power, not daring to relax in the slightest.

The moment she showed any signs of attack, he would definitely strike first.

As it stood, he had finally encountered a willing Demigod who could clarify doubts, even addressing era questions he had never encountered in his multiple time travels.

The issues of the era and the Deity of Wealth in Office were obviously significant.

If he were to buy this knowledge from the dark river, it would likely cost hundreds of thousands or millions of resources.

Looking at it this way, listening to her here seemed much more worthwhile.

As long as she didn’t speak too much nonsense, he felt this exchange could continue.

When the woman heard Su Wen’s inquiry, she smiled lightly.

Then she began to answer his various queries.

However, as Su Wen listened, his brows knitted together.

In just over ten minutes, a powerful being at the Demigod Level could convey a lot of information.

Even if she wasn’t in a hurry, wanting simply to chat longer with him, he noticed that she began discussing the Holy Spirit clan, but then also brought in various speculations about the Ghost Spirit clan regarding the Holy Spirit clan.

She didn’t mention a single word about the Deity of Wealth in Office or the concept of the era, which he valued the most.

If this trend continued, the time for the Fighting God’s power would be up, and even all his remaining resources would not be enough to extend the time for the Fighting God’s power while she finished her speculations.

“I just remembered I have an urgent matter to attend to.”

Su Wen replied, “So I will take my leave now. We can have a good chat another time.”

After saying this, Su Wen prepared to turn and leave.

“The God of Martial Arts… normally, a divine fate bearer whose title begins with martial should not react this quickly when compared to the God of Fighting,” the woman said softly with a pensive look. “Especially when I am using the treasures of fate; no matter what, you will definitely be affected.”

“Even a divine fate bearer at the Demigod Level would unconsciously be influenced.”

“This influence, even when merely chatting with me and exploring questions, would amplify infinitely!”

“You should have unwittingly sunk into it, even actively discussing topics that interest you, even those you have never encountered before.”

“But in just over ten minutes, you realized it.”

“So my language traps, my treasures of fate, and my various methods along with the influence from clan treasures on you have all been ineffective.”

“Is that right?”

“The Great God of Wealth!”

As her words fell, all the surviving members of the Ghost Spirit clan vanished into thin air.

Su Wen took a deep breath, clenching his fists.

Had he inadvertently fallen into a pit again?

It seemed the identity of the wealth god could truly not be concealed any longer.

Immediately, Su Wen concentrated his thoughts and refined the corpse of the Third Elder.

“Resources +80,000.”

“Detected that you are currently in combat; the martial arts talent has been activated.”

“In money mode, you have earned eighty thousand resources.”

“Your overall strength has increased by eight percent.”

Seemingly recognizing Su Wen’s extraordinary nature, and perhaps out of respect for a Demigod, the woman looked up at the sky and said lightly, “Minister Liang, your realm in the Demon Witch realm has been destroyed like this; do you want to join me in eliminating the rebel who usurped the wealth god’s authority?”

As soon as she spoke, dark clouds filled the sky.

The next moment, a man adorned in a blood-red official robe, wearing a crown, appeared before them, exuding immense authority.

“The Demon Witch tribe guards the Earth Deity, willing to serve the bloodline of the Ghost Spirit noble!”

“Kill the rebel!”

“Restore a bright and clear world to all under heaven!”
