    Chapter 429: The Pragmatist: Fighting God

    Silence!

    The gathering room was filled with an unusual quietness!

    Wind God was quite familiar with "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai."

    Thanks to the God of Theater, he had a broad understanding of traditional Chinese opera.

    He was especially well-versed in classic dramatic pieces.

    Thus, he fully grasped the plot and the thematic messages in "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai."

    Does this imply that the Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan is being arranged to marry someone else?

    How could that be acceptable?

    Although he had never met the Seventh Goddess, the God of Wealth had mentioned that she was his future wife.

    No matter what, how could his future wife be forced into a marriage with someone else?

    Absolutely not!

    “Why don’t we visit the Nine-Tails clan and see what’s happening?”

    Fighting God suggested, sitting nearby.

    “Agreed!”

    Wind God nodded seriously and said, “I’ll go into seclusion right away. Once I connect with my origin and ascend to immortal half-god status, I’ll personally visit the Nine-Tails clan.”

    “Let’s see who dares to force my person!”

    With this issue at hand, the duel with Fighting God became a minor concern.

    It could be postponed for now!

    Of course, the main reason was that he wasn’t the type to act impulsively.

    At this stage, he could easily overpower Brother God of Fighting.

    But Brother God of Fighting would eventually rise, and once he did, wouldn’t Wind God often find himself on the losing end?

    So, a few verbal exchanges would suffice.

    “Great! That’s the spirit!”

    Fighting God slammed the table, laughing as he said, “We are immortal half-gods, after all. The strongest in the Nine-Tails clan are only at Emperor Level.”

    “If they dare to do such a thing, we’ll go there together and turn the Nine-Tails clan upside down!”

    “Do they really think we’re powerless like Liang Shanbo?”

    Wind God was momentarily stunned, then after a brief pause, he said, “Brother God of Fighting, to achieve our goals, you should focus on fighting and improving your strength!”

    “Really, I’m not underestimating your abilities.”

    “It’s just that if we end up going to snatch a bride, and you’re still at your current level, you might become a liability and a weak link for everyone.”

    Fighting God: “…What do you mean?”

    Did he really look down on people this much?

    How could someone who cheats look down on a pragmatist like him?

    What kind of logic is that?

    “Alright, Brother God of Fighting, give it your all!”

    After Wind God said this, he turned around and vanished.

    “Shadow, did Wind God’s words just now mean he was looking down on me?”

    Fighting God asked Mo Xiaosu, the only one sitting in the private room, after a moment of silence.

    “I don’t think so!” Mo Xiaosu thought for a moment and replied, “After all, what Wind God said is true.”

    Fighting God: “…”

    Was it really that harsh?

    Alright, his adorable sister Mo Xiaosu had already disappeared!

    Now standing before him was Shadow God, another expert at delivering harsh truths.

    Bring it on!

    Hit me with the truth!

    “I’m going to fight right now!” Fighting God declared, feeling like he couldn’t stay in the organization any longer.

    It was too harsh!

    Is this the world’s way of mocking those at the bottom?

    Well… even though the God of Wealth only had the strength of king level first transformation right now,

    The God of Wealth couldn’t be measured by normal standards.

    Who had ever seen a king level first transformation warrior beat a Demigod?

    He even managed to kill a Demigod!

    Not only that, thanks to the lessons from the God of Theater, he knew about the God of Wealth’s powerful command abilities.

    Once a command was given, how could the Arrow Realm resist?

    With such an overpowered God of Wealth, why was he even comparing himself?

    In other words, how twisted must he be to benchmark his power against the God of Wealth?

    Wasn’t he just asking for trouble?

    “Immortal half-god…”

    Mo Xiaosu watched as Fighting God left and whispered, “This realm must have a powerful and captivating essence, right?”

    At the same time, in the God of Martial Arts’ office.

    “After resting and relaxing for a few days,”

    Su Wen sat in his chair, muttering to himself, “It’s about time to take another look at the future.”

    Suddenly, Yuanbao appeared beside him.

    “God of Wealth, are you planning to use the true self traversal opportunity granted by the river of time this time?”

    “The main difference between your true self traversing the future and your previous consciousness experience is that you cannot die.”

    “If you die in any form, from soul to true spirit, in the sub-timelines, you might not be able to return to the main Time and Space.”

    Hearing this, Su Wen was momentarily stunned.

    Yuanbao’s words reminded him of the revival gift from the River of Fate.

    Most importantly, after reviving, the River of Fate had granted him ten seconds of invincibility.

    Could it be that the River of Fate had foreseen this?

    Is that why it granted him this ability in advance?

    Hmm… the very word ‘fate’ carries profound implications.

    “Yuanbao, think this through carefully,”

    Su Wen said, “If the Fighting God of the sub-timeline decides to bring about the end of the world, do you think I can survive?”

    Yuanbao hesitated, then shook his head, “I think it’s quite unlikely.”

    Although he had faith in the God of Wealth, he couldn’t be blindly overconfident!

    The Fighting God of the First Age was a peerless powerful being, capable of pinning the Leader of the Remnant against the cosmic barrier.

    The Power Gap is indeed quite significant.

    “I agree, so the Fighting God cannot die carelessly,”

    Su Wen pondered, “Especially not while I’m traveling to the sub-timelines.”

    “If he must die, perhaps it should be at the very last moment before I leave.”

    “Or, while the power of time and space is protecting me, the Fighting God could die peacefully.”

    “This way, under the protection of the river of time, I could witness the Fighting God’s end of the world scenario.”

    Yuanbao stroked his chin, thinking for a moment before replying, “God of Wealth, the river of time says it can provide such protection.”

    “Even during your true self’s traversal, if you decide to return, you can stay as long as you wish.”

    “Even until the seas dry up and the universe collapses, the river of time has enough power to protect you.”

    “Of course, during this process, the river of time will require a bit of trivial funding.”

    At this point, Yuanbao paused and then added helplessly, “God of Wealth, these are the exact words of the river of time; I’m just relaying them to you.”

    “As expected, the river of time still insists on funding.”

    Su Wen remained composed; he had anticipated the river of time’s demand for money.

    Honestly, if the river of time didn’t ask for money and offered free protection, he wouldn’t dare to traverse with his true self.

    Because he would never know what kind of shady schemes the river of time had in store for him.

    What’s free is often the most expensive.

    He firmly believed this!

    “Since the river of time offers this service, then it’s much simpler,”

    Su Wen looked up at the sky and murmured to himself, “A bleak future!”

    “Here I come!”
