Chapter 182
byChapter 182: The Ongoing Sub-Timelines
“Since the Arrow Realm already has the name Mount Sea Battlefield, let’s change it!”
The God of Theater spoke up, “After all, sharing a name with the Arrow Realm—what’s the point of that?”
The Wind God nodded slightly and said, “Right. When we open a new battlefield in the future, the name will matter a lot.”
“If we can’t call it Mount Sea, then how about… the Yan Huang Battlefield?”
The Star God raised an eyebrow and quipped, “Wind God, with a name like that, you might as well call it the Huaxia Battlefield.”
The Wind God chuckled and scratched his head, “Hey, I’m just throwing out ideas.”
“But speaking of which, the main character in this love letter from the Nine-Tails clan widow also has ‘wind’ in their name!”
“And it mentions turning into an omnipresent wind after death. If that’s not some funeral tradition or cultural custom from the Nine-Tails clan, then their ability sounds a lot like mine.”
“Hmm… but such a tragic person. Nah, let’s not be alike.”
“First, they infiltrated the Nine-Tails clan, then fell in love with one of their prodigies, and later pushed their lover away to investigate their brother’s situation.”
“Uh, God of Theater, doesn’t this sound a bit… over-the-top?”
“Isn’t this what you once called ‘dramatic structure,’ with all the conflicts and emotions packed into one story?”
“It’s so tragic. Even I, just a kid, feel bad for them.”
“The male and female leads in this letter—they’re both in such a mess!”
“Falling in love with someone from their sworn enemy’s side… tsk tsk tsk…”
Hearing this, the God of Theater said softly, “Xiao Feng, hold on a second.”
“God of Martial Arts, I noticed you’ve been quiet ever since the Star God finished translating this letter. Is there something off about its origin?”
The God of Martial Arts’ power is unique—his thoughts and feelings are completely hidden from the others.
Even when wearing the mask of the God of Martial Arts, unless his tone or voice changes, no one can tell what he’s feeling.
But the thing is, this letter came from the God of Martial Arts’ Divine Artifacts.
Normally, he’d be curious about something like this.
The others were curious too, partly out of gossip and partly to figure out where the Gathering Treasure’s items came from.
But the God of Martial Arts’ reaction to the letter, and his silence after the Star God finished translating, stood out starkly.
It was clear he must know something.
“I think I know where this letter came from.”
Su Wen took a deep breath and took the letter from the Star God’s hands.
Then, he handed it over to the Wind God.
Wind God: “?”
Brother God of Martial Arts, what’s this about?
Why are you giving me this letter from the Nine-Tails clan widow?
Suddenly, a deep feeling of unease washed over him.
Su Wen’s actions caught the attention of the Star God and the God of Theater, who exchanged thoughtful glances.
“Xiao Feng!” Su Wen patted the Wind God on the shoulder and said, “Keep this letter safe; it might come in handy for you someday.”
Wind God: “??”
As he thought about the God of Martial Arts’ ability to foresee the future, the Wind God started to feel uneasy.
Wait, what?
This letter is actually about him?
Does that mean the unlucky guy named Wind in the letter is… him?
“Brother God of Martial Arts, don’t joke around like that,” the Wind God said, forcing a smile. “That kind of joke isn’t funny at all.”
Su Wen replied, “The Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan, your future wife.”
Wind God: “……”
His wife?
No way, how old is he?
He hasn’t even finished elementary school yet!
How can he already have a wife?
“God of Martial Arts, explain this!” The God of Theater’s expression turned serious. “Are the main characters in this letter really the Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan and Xiao Feng?”
“Hmm… the future Seventh Goddess and Xiao Feng?” Su Wen nodded. “Yes, didn’t I tell you before that Xiao Feng will defect in the future?”
“When Xiao Feng defects, he’ll go to the Arrow Realm and fall in love with the Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan.”
Wind God: “???”
What does this mean?
He’s going to defect in the future?
So everything in the letter is really about his future self?
His future self… is gone?
And then the Mount Sea Battlefield collapses?
And his wife will come to Huaxia with a sword to fight?
At first, he thought this was just a tragic love story from the Arrow Realm.
Aside from being sad, he found it kind of funny.
What a crazy coincidence, right?
But now that it’s about his own future, he couldn’t find anything to laugh about.
Although he’s still in elementary school, he’s already twelve.
At twelve, in today’s world, he pretty much knows what he should and shouldn’t know about life.
That’s why he’s starting to wonder if his future might be a bit too bleak.
So bleak, it’s almost hard to look at.
"I see,"
the God of Theater murmured softly, "So it seems the Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan still has a soft spot for Xiao Feng!"
"That’s something to think about, but it’s still a bit early."
"At least, we should wait until Xiao Feng is an adult, right?"
Su Wen nodded, "True, otherwise, it would just be puppy love."
Next to them, the Star God chimed in, "So, are all the items in the treasure bowl from the future timeline?"
By investing wealth into the treasure bowl, they can harvest items from the future timeline.
Though the process is a bit unpredictable and the items somewhat random, there’s always a little surprise.
Like this time, they got the unpublished notes of the Wind God’s future wife.
"Should be,"
Su Wen said quietly. As he suspected, the treasure bowl’s power is indeed linked to the river of time.
And the amount of wealth you put in determines the quality of the treasures you get.
Yuan Bao was right; the treasure bowl… is another gold-guzzler!
But there’s still a serious question.
The time point mentioned in the Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan’s notes—is it after the Gale’s destruction and the fall of the Mount Sea Battlefield?
In other words, is the timeline in the sub-timelines still moving forward?
What Fighting God’s trace of consciousness said before—that every timeline is the main Time and Space—was actually true?
He used to think that if the main Time and Space changed, the future of the sub-timelines would change too.
If that’s the case, then as the sub-timelines improve, the previous tragic ones would vanish as his chaos in time and space ends.
Or rather, they’d reset!
But if the timeline in the sub-timelines keeps moving, that means every time he causes chaos in time and space, a real timeline is abandoned and sacrificed.
"Ah!"
Su Wen sighed softly. Chaos in time and space really lives up to its name!
Chaotic time and space!
And chaotic hearts!
"Brother God of Martial Arts, I have a question,"
the Wind God suddenly asked, "Do you know what the Seventh Goddess of the Nine-Tails clan looks like?"
