From a rational standpoint, I don't recommend you go back.

The Star God said in a complicated tone, "Whether you take off your mask to reunite with your family, or stand at your doorstep quietly watching your loved ones live their lives, there are certain hidden dangers for us at the moment."

"And I've made all the arrangements for your family as well."

"I used some rare and precious materials to mimic the human body's structure and Refinement a puppet that looks exactly like you."

"Then, a wisp of my divine sense entered you and, through observing your daily life, began to imitate you."

"From the moment you awakened to become the God of God of Wealth, a clear dividing line was drawn."

"On this side of the cutting line lies your life of salvation under the God of Wealth."

"On the other side of the cutting line is the daily life of the puppet body I control."

"After graduating from university, I took civil service exams, postgraduate entrance exams, and public sector exams. Or, after entering the workforce, I worked from nine to six, and I even imitated some of the usual overtime behaviors, including the excitement after receiving my paycheck."

"Your family is seeing your career soaring, your salary rising higher and higher, and their mood is getting better and better, with smiles appearing on their faces more and more often."

"My plan is that next year or the year after, you can use the salary you've saved over the past two years to start a business with your friends."

"To be honest, I had some ideas about starting a business before I really woke up to it."

"However, after realizing this, my goal is no longer this."

The Star God paused, then changed the subject, saying, "But from an emotional standpoint, I suggest you go back."

"After all, the Spring Festival is a long-standing cultural tradition in my country, and family reunion is a time for everyone."

"It would be too cruel for you to not even be allowed to go home for the New Year."

"It's not right emotionally!"

"Logically, this is inappropriate!"

Listening to Star God's words, Su Wen suddenly asked, "I'd like to ask, after you woke up, did you go home for the New Year?"

Upon hearing this, the Star God paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No."

Where is the Theater God?

"The Theater God's awakening took a long time. His family members, in the era when the Heavenly Mandate Bearer had just awakened, in that chaotic era, were all... gone."

Where's Little Wind?

Little Wind is an orphan.

"What about the Battle God?"

"After waking up, he never went home. The affairs of the Battle God's family were handled by the Theater God."

"I understand."

Su Wen began, "Everyone has sacrificed a lot for the future development of our country."

"Now that we've finally created a slightly advantageous situation, how can we hand over our lifeline to the enemy because of my own indecisiveness?"

He had already seen the sacrifices his comrades had made.

Most importantly, through witnessing the tragedy of the Sub-Space-Time firsthand, he underwent a significant inner transformation and matured considerably.

The Remnant Clan are indignant; the so-called happiness and peace are ultimately just bubbles in the water.

Everyone is fighting for their future survival, and the comrades in the Sub-Space-Time are also experiencing all kinds of grief and torment.

Compared to these things, not going home for the Chinese New Year seems insignificant.

The Star God oversees all matters of state and is usually very busy.

But now that the Star God has taken this into consideration and resolved all his worries, why should he bother investigating further?

All he needs to know is that his family and friends are doing well and will continue to do so in the future; that's enough for him!

Otherwise, when the final battle arrives, all the beauty he wants to protect will vanish into thin air.

"Well!"

The Star God looked at Su Wen and sighed softly.

He then walked over and gently patted Su Wen on the shoulder to comfort him.

The next moment, the surrounding barrier disappeared.

"Have you finished discussing it?"

The Battle God looked at the two of them and asked with a grin.

"Why aren't you absorbing Insight Air Mass? What are you doing here?"

Su Wen asked in confusion. Although he had never absorbed the Insight Air Mass before, he had already anticipated everyone's reaction.

Under normal circumstances, after obtaining the Insight Air Mass, people will instinctively and eagerly want to absorb Refinement to become stronger.

The Battle God is able to resist absorbing the energy and wait for them here; is there something important he wants to say?

"I just want to ask you about something."

The Battle God rubbed his hands together and chuckled.

"What's up?"

"So... during your seclusion this time, did you foresee any of us causing trouble in the future?"

"..."

"Look, if my future self causes trouble and gets beaten up, that's only right. I'm fully prepared to cooperate, whether it's three or five beatings, or a combination of beatings, I'll never run away."

So what are you trying to say?

"What I mean is, in the future... I won't be the only one causing trouble, right? If we're going to get punished, then we'll all get punished together!"

"..."

Su Wen was speechless. Putting everything else aside, if we really had to pick someone to cause trouble in this Sub-Space-Time, it would undoubtedly be him.

While there are various reasons to explain this, ultimately, his actions account for a large part of the reason.

So, does the Battle God mean he wants to beat himself up?

"Battle God, you know that the First Era was under the Battle God's jurisdiction, right?"

Su Wen changed the subject and asked with a smile.

"Know."

"Through some means, I obtained the combat manual passed down by the Current Battle God the First Era. I will teach it to you when I have time."

"Good!"

The Battle God was taken aback, then nodded solemnly.

He was aware of the power of the Current Battle God.

Of all the eras, the Current Battle God of the First Era could probably easily defeat them all.

Therefore, he was quite looking forward to the battle secrets of the Current Battle God.

"Okay, I'll take that as long as you agree."

After patting the Battle God on the shoulder, Su Wen turned around and handed over the Star God's insights to the Star God.

He then waved his hand and went into his office.

"Huh?"

The Battle God raised his hand to speak; the God of Wealth hadn't yet answered the question he wanted to ask!

"Don't ask anymore!"

Beside him, the Star God interrupted the Battle God, who was about to continue speaking.

"What's wrong?"

The Battle God scratched his head, puzzled, and asked, "Isn't this a big issue that everyone should be paying attention to?"

Upon hearing this, the Star God's lips twitched, and he said, "Haven't you noticed that the God of Wealth hasn't directly answered your question?"

Do you think the God of Wealth is stupid, or God of Wealth?

"Isn't his silence telling you something?"

"The future he foresaw during his seclusion either means no one will cause trouble, or you will be the one causing trouble, but the God of Wealth feels sorry for you and doesn't want to punish you anymore."

"Of course, that possibility is a bit small."

"Then there's only one possibility left: at some point in the future, the God of Wealth himself will encounter a slight problem."

At this point, the Star God paused, then said with a mocking tone, "Do you know what you meant when you asked the God of Wealth just now?"

"It's like pointing your finger at the God of God of Wealth's forehead and saying, 'I want to punch you,' what do you think?"

"It's not just me who wants to beat you up, I want everyone to beat you up together, and I even want to happily watch you get beaten up. How about we do it?"

"Put yourself in the God of God of Wealth's shoes, would you answer this question?"

Battle God: "..."

Can such a few short sentences contain such a wealth of information?

Most importantly, he didn't mean to beat up the God of God of Wealth!

Ultimately, his future depends on this guy!
