Chapter 531: Two Friends from Afar

Meanwhile, in sub-timeline 02.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Two beams of light descended from the sky and landed precisely in front of the martial arts library in Jiang City.

It was here that Su Wen, terrified of the Wind God’s strength, attempted suicide. After his failed attempt, he chose to return directly to avoid any negative consequences.

At that time, his choice to return had been a last resort.

Rationally speaking, he needed to stay there and quietly observe the Wind God’s upcoming actions.

Whether the other party was a traitor or one of their own would be revealed in the actions to follow.

But the crucial point was that he had just awakened.

So weak!

Any random Arrow Realm could easily trample over him!

He felt extremely lost and helpless about the fate bearer’s domain.

He knew nothing and understood nothing.

His experiences in the Monkey Kingdom, along with the Protective Boost of the Body Refinement Method, had already made him aware of the authenticity of the future world.

Plus, with the mysterious Arrow Realm and the unpredictable future of the fate bearers, how could he ignore the words spoken by the narrator?

So, once he knew he could return, why hesitate?

Should he stay and wait for something unexpected to happen over there?

Of course, if he had known what he did now, he might not have rushed back.

What was there to fear?

If worse came to worst, he’d just die!

It was just a matter of experiencing words; if he died, he would return.

If he didn’t die, then he could wait and see.

Especially since the narrator was from the river of time; wouldn’t it keep him alive until it had earned enough wealth?

But in the initial stage of awakening, being cautious about everything and preserving his life was the best strategy.

"God of Wealth, is this the martial arts library where you met your demise?"

The God of Theater looked around and asked softly.

This Jiang City looked better this time.

It was much more vibrant compared to the desolate scene from last time!

"Yes,"

Su Wen nodded and said, "It was here that I encountered Xiao Feng, who was sent to investigate, and then Xiao Feng’s actions scared me, who had just awakened."

"And that’s when I spent a great deal to hurry back."

God of Theater: “……”

After a moment of silence, the God of Theater suddenly said, “How about we catch Xiao Feng later and give him a good beating to let off some steam?”

Su Wen waved his hand and said, “No need for that. We’ll just ask him for an explanation, and that should be enough.”

The God of Theater nodded slightly, now convinced that a beating was indeed necessary!

The God of Wealth had already been through enough!

To go to such lengths and spend so much just to forcefully return because of Xiao Feng’s attitude in a situation like this? Unbelievable.

Especially after connecting the God of Wealth’s insults toward the Time and Space maintainers and the sub-timelines to a whole host of other issues.

Besides, as Xiao Feng’s grandfather, what’s wrong with giving him a good thrashing?

On a rainy day, with nothing else to do, why not?

“Send a message to the Star God, and then we’ll wait for him here!”

Su Wen focused his thoughts and used his deep understanding of the Starry Array to forcefully break through its barrier.

He had studied the latest version of the Starry Array extensively—crafted by an immortal half-god at limit-breaking level—and had even become its actual controller.

As for the Starry Array in sub-timeline 02?

It was full of obvious flaws!

Not to mention, his soul and true spirit were already immortal, and with his Emperor Level martial arts mastery, breaking through this time-space barrier of the Starry Array was a breeze.

“Buzz!”

A flash of starlight flickered, and then the Star God appeared in the Starry Array, clad in starry battle armor and wearing a star mask, radiating killing intent.

After all, the disturbance Su Wen had caused in the Starry Array was hard to miss.

“Outsider!”

“I can’t believe you dare to…”

The Star God roared, ready to unleash the power of the Starry Array, but when he saw the familiar mask of the Great God of Wealth on Su Wen’s face, he hesitated.

With a wave of his right hand, the gathered stellar power dissipated.

“You are… the God of Wealth?”

The Star God approached Su Wen’s mental form, studied him for a moment, and then asked cautiously.

“It seems the version of me from this time and space told you about the main Time and Space before dying,” Su Wen said. “Since that’s the case, I’ll cut to the chase.”

“The God of Theater and I are waiting for you at the martial arts library in Jiang City.”

The Star God took a deep breath, shocked. “The God of Theater is alive too?”

The God of Wealth had indeed mentioned some things to him.

But since the God of Wealth himself only had a partial understanding, how could he know much more?

Besides, he’d heard about the Wind God killing Li Dong and driving away someone suspected to be the God of Wealth from the main Time and Space.

But he never expected the God of Wealth’s main Time and Space could descend a second time.

Dead, and yet you can come back to life?

Even multiple times?

Does that mean you’re practically immortal?

“Is the situation at the Mount Sea Battlefield serious?” Su Wen asked. “If it is, the God of Theater and I can go help.”

“With our current strength, wiping out those in the Arrow Realm would be no problem at all!”

The Star God’s eyes flickered at this, and then he smiled. “No need. The Mount Sea Battlefield is stable. You two, as friends from afar, should wait for me at the martial arts library in Jiang City.”

“I’ll take care of things here and join you shortly.”

Su Wen gave a slight nod, then turned and vanished on the spot.

It was understandable that the Star God didn’t trust them.

How could the Star God from sub-timeline 02 possibly trust them?

To put it bluntly, this time-space’s Star God hadn’t even met the version of himself from the first arrival.

From what it seemed, he’d probably only heard a vague idea about the connection between sub-timelines and the main Time and Space.

Hmm… just an idea, with no concrete terms.

After all, it was the Fighting God, reduced to a remnant soul in the next time-space, who first proposed the concept of sub-timelines.

Without the emotional foundation built from his first fight, if he trusted them, he wouldn’t be the Star God!

Doubt—that’s what’s normal!

“The Star God doesn’t trust us, right?” the God of Theater glanced at Su Wen and asked.

“Right,” Su Wen replied with a smile. “Isn’t that just normal?”

The God of Theater chuckled. Indeed, it was perfectly normal.

As they chatted and laughed, they walked into the martial arts library.

“Tsk tsk!” The God of Theater looked around and murmured, “This martial arts library is quite impressive!”

Su Wen shot him a glance. “The future martial arts libraries will be far more luxurious than this. This is nothing special.”

“Totally normal,” the God of Theater said with a shrug.

Then, with a slight raise of his right hand, the air around them began to stir without any wind.

In a hidden corner of the martial arts library, a faint wisp of wind seemed to awaken, suddenly beginning to manifest.

“Buzz!”

“Buzz!”

“Buzz!”

The wind grew stronger, causing the library’s windows to tremble slightly.

From the whirlpool of wind emerged a tall young man dressed in a green battle robe.

“When I left this wisp of wind behind, I wondered if you’d ever return,” the young man said, his voice echoing. “I guess I was right.”

“Are you really the God of Wealth?” he continued, skepticism in his tone. “I have my doubts about that.”

“So I…”

He stopped mid-sentence.

In the next moment, his voice filled with disbelief as his eyes widened in shock.

“God of Theater!??”
