The Red Candles Had Yet to Burn Out, but the Celebration Was Already Gone

[According to the dimensional hierarchy of the Star Kingdom Civilization, initially mastering the "Divine Core" places one at the Herrscher level.]

[Above that are even higher levels: Emanator level, Throne level...]

[Using dimensions as the foundation, one can ultimately ascend to the pinnacle of the technological Herrscher system—the Aeon level. One Proof, Eternal Proof; one thought, eternal existence!]

[At present, I have only just entered the Herrscher level. I can barely rewind historical scenes, and cannot even step into the timeline to change the past...]

Soul Land 2 Xiao Xiao: "Huh? Rewinding time is already this outrageous, and that's only entry-level Herrscher?"

Soul Land 1 Xue Ke: "I don't understand it, but I'm deeply shocked."

Soul Land 1 Ning Rongrong: "I don't understand it either, but as long as I know it's powerful, that's enough."

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "Changing the past... can that really be done?"

Shrek Academy.

Liu Erlong stared blankly at the four words "change the past" in the diary. Her mind seemed to return to that night long ago.

Back then, she and Yu Xiaogang had been deeply in love. Flender saw things clearly and took the initiative to step aside. One person's fulfillment was better than three people's entanglement...

Everyone had believed that this wedding would be the best possible ending.

Yet on the night of the wedding, the truth that she and Yu Xiaogang were cousins was exposed. The shackles of worldly customs, morality, and kinship completely shattered everything beautiful.

The red candles had yet to burn out, but the celebration was already gone.

Unable to bear the blow, Yu Xiaogang suffered a mental collapse and fled the wedding in panic, leaving her alone to face the gossip and their shattered bridal chamber...

If she truly could return to the past, she would not care about worldly rules at all.

That night, she absolutely would not wait for the wedding. She would grab Yu Xiaogang without hesitation, leave with him, and find a hotel to make it official!

[I never expected the first time I used high-dimensional technology would be just to make money. This really is the crudest possible use...]

Qin Moyu sighed as he wrote, then composed himself as "Equivalent Exchange Technology" quietly appeared in his palm.

"Herrscher of Reason, extract dark matter!"

As the words fell, he lightly swiped forward.

The previously tranquil space suddenly tore open into a dimensional rift, from which a mass of ink-black light poured out...

This was the tangible form dark matter could take only after being compressed to the absolute limit.

As an efficient clean energy source, dark matter could be used in virtually every scenario.

Qin Moyu intended to use "Equivalent Exchange Technology" to convert dark matter into gold.

That was precisely why he mocked himself for using such cost-defying high-dimensional technology merely to accumulate worldly wealth. It was truly using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!

Everyone knew that the key reason the Industrial Age developed so quickly came down to one core principle: boiling water.

During the Steam Age, steam engines used thermal energy to perform work, transforming it into the kinetic energy of trains and opening the door to the Industrial Age.

Even in modern times, controllable nuclear fusion still converted nuclear energy into various forms of potential energy. At its core, it was still just "boiling water" under a different name...

Inside the hotel suite, Qin Moyu's remaining Soul Power rapidly drained away as his gear-shaped pupils spun.

When the dust finally settled, the entire luxurious suite was filled with dazzling golden light so bright it was hard to open one's eyes.

Gold Soul Coins were piled into mountains, their immense weight seeming to make even the floor of the Rose Hotel sink slightly. The sight was overwhelmingly impactful!

What did it mean to be rich enough to rival a nation?

The mountains of gold covering the floor before them were the most direct depiction of it.

Although the female leads from other worlds were shocked in the Myriad Heavens Diary comment section, no one spoke. The main reason was that there was simply nothing for them to join in on.

Besides, judging from the diary, the level of the Douluo Plane truly was not particularly impressive. Talking with them almost felt like lowering themselves...

They silently watched the Douluo women praise martial souls and soul skills, always going on about thousands, tens of thousands, or hundred-thousand-year limits. Their destructive power seemed inferior to the Great Desolation Imprisoning Heaven Finger that they could casually cultivate over a few months?

What kind of cultivation system required killing soul beasts to break through realms? Wasn't this something one simply learned on one's own?

Meanwhile, the female leads of the Douluo Plane had already been completely stunned by the mountain-like piles of Gold Soul Coins filling the room.

Soul Land 1 Ning Rongrong: "Damn, that's so much money!"

Soul Land 1 Xiao Wu: "Rongrong, even you think that amount is ridiculous?"

Soul Land 1 Ning Rongrong: "Of course. Although the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda has the innate ability to seek treasures, even when the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's treasury was at its fullest, it only had a tiny few hundred million more than this..."

Soul Land 1 Xiao Wu: "???"

Who even asked you that?

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "With this much gold, if Flender saw it, his life would be complete."

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "I wonder whether some old woman has this much money in her private stash."

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "Gold Soul Coins can be found everywhere in Spirit Hall's treasury. They are not worth mentioning. Unlike certain people who have guarded that empty Blue Tyrant Academy for years and probably cannot save even a single coin?"

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "You! Despicable!!!"

At Shrek Academy, Liu Erlong's face turned green, and she nearly lost her composure on the spot.

She had always had a fiery temper and could not stand her former love rival. Yet who would have thought Bibi Dong would immediately use her influence to crush her!

Was having power really such a big deal?!

She truly did not know what Spirit Hall's higher-ups had been thinking, allowing an outsider like Bibi Dong to sit on the Pope's throne.

Besides, Liu Erlong had founded Blue Tyrant Academy to care for commoner students. She had never done it to gather wealth or profit.

Just as Liu Erlong was preparing to argue her case, inspiration suddenly struck. She instantly suppressed her anger, and a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "Blue Tyrant Academy really doesn't make money, but I forgot to tell you that Xiao Gang is at my academy right now. We're already living together~"

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "You! You ****!"

Spirit Hall's main hall.

Bibi Dong, seated upon her throne, suddenly stiffened. Her cold and breathtakingly beautiful face flushed scarlet in an instant, and her mentality completely exploded.

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "So what? I'm richer than you, and I hold power over the entire continent!"

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "Xiao Gang lives with me."

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "I have more power than you!"

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "Xiao Gang lives with me."

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "You're courting death! Do you believe I can have someone deal with you right now?!"

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "Feel free to try."

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "If Xiao Gang finds out you did it, he won't forgive you in this life or the next!"

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "I'll f*** your ***!"

That single sentence instantly tore apart every bit of Bibi Dong's domineering facade. Its lethality was comparable to Garen building Last Whisper—silencing and breaking defenses at once.

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "A petty person rejoices in temporary success. In the future, I am destined to become the first-rank god Rakshasa God, while you will be nothing more than a mere Title Douluo at most!"

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "I will live happily with Xiao Gang in the God Realm. And you, my friend, once you die of old age, I'll visit your grave often."

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "???"

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "You can't win!"

Soul Land 1 Bibi Dong: "Tang San is nothing. I simply did not pay much attention to him before. Besides, now I'm not the only one watching Tang San and wanting to get rid of him."

Soul Land 1 Liu Erlong: "..."

At those words, Liu Erlong was instantly rendered speechless and unable to refute her...

Even a Title Douluo could not escape birth, aging, sickness, and death.

Before gods with eternal lifespans, the time mortals could spend together was ultimately pitifully brief...

The Diary Copy comment section fell silent, while female leads from all sorts of worlds wore expressions of eager gossip.

This Myriad Heavens Diary belonging to the high-dimensional visitor was simply the greatest gossip artifact in all the heavens.

Other worlds discussed cultivation, the Great Dao, and immortality. Only the female leads of the Douluo Plane constantly revealed massive scandals of love and hatred every few days. It was simply too entertaining!

At the same time, the little angel lurking within the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace was already utterly shocked, her beautiful face completely darkened!

"Mother... what is this? Why?"

Qian Renxue clutched her chest and murmured. Her golden heart was pounding violently at this moment...

Ever since childhood, Qian Renxue had never understood why, despite being her biological daughter, her mother Bibi Dong had always been so cold and distant toward her, without a trace of warmth.

Could it be...

After Father died, her mother had completely fallen for someone else, which was why she disliked her so much?

An absurd yet heart-piercing thought flooded wildly into her mind, impossible to dispel.

Qian Renxue kept shaking her head, wanting to drive away these chaotic thoughts, yet she could not stop herself from overthinking.
