Su Wen looked at the Star God and sighed softly.
Although the Star God didn't say it explicitly, he knew what the Star God was referring to.
Once the Star God removes his mask and reveals his true identity, it will cause great turmoil within the network of relationships associated with that Star God.
The Star God's status is too high!
For ordinary people, an official who manages a county might be an extremely important figure.
But for the Star God, such official personnel weren't even qualified to be by his side.
Most importantly, the crisis they faced was far too great.
First came the invasion of countless Arrow Realm, then the attacks of traitors.
Next came the opening of numerous Frontier Battlefield.
Under such immense pressure, how could the Star God possibly be in the mood to mediate with so-called political forces?
He knew a little about the Star God's methods.
After all, the Star God of the Main Space-Time has been serving as the chief for several years.
The Star God has also used some brutal methods.
When faced with a formidable enemy, not everyone will fight with all their might.
Conversely, there are plenty of people who seek personal gain, hold high positions, and are short-sighted.
"I thought you wouldn't have such upsetting things happen to you."
Su Wen said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it seems I was overthinking it."
The Star God chuckled softly, then said, "I'm not telling you all this to make you feel sentimental."
"That is?"
"From the very beginning, I had no intention of teaching you so-called political wisdom. As the Great Ninth Epoch God of Wealth, your job is simply to lead us forward."
The Star God said in a deep voice, "But as you've seen, we now know that we have more than just two or three enemies."
"Once you have more enemies, all sorts of messy things like alliances, exclusions, and pacts will arise."
"But when things get chaotic, and there's a lot of backstabbing and life-or-death struggle, that's where the political wisdom passed down through generations of Huaxia people comes in handy."
Then, Star God's tone shifted, and he continued, "Have you noticed that, whether it's the Remnant Clan or the Descender Universe?"
"Those powerful individuals with long lifespans are sometimes not so adept at intrigue and scheming."
"After all, for cultivators, strength determines everything!"
"Whether it's okay or not, we'll find out after a fight!"
"Strategies, or rather, underhanded tactics, are so weak and powerless in the face of overwhelming force, collapsing at the slightest touch."
"Indeed, an almost limitless lifespan can enhance their experience."
"But strategy requires more than just experience; it also depends on what kind of experience."
"The kind of person who's always indulging in romance and poetry, even if you let him indulge in that for billions of years, he'd still just be a fool who only knows how to talk about love."
"..."
Afterwards, Star God told Su Wen some typical cases.
There is actually a big difference between someone with political acumen and someone who is naive and innocent.
So, do you want to learn it?
After saying that, the Star God said softly, "I think learning this will still be of some help to you."
"Of course, if you really hate this kind of thing, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
"I understand, it's hard for everyone to like something like this."
Su Wen looked at the Star God and said with a smile, "Learn it! Why not learn this kind of knowledge that will be used in the future?"
The Star God nodded, as if he had expected this all along.
"Practice makes perfect. Before anyone notices your existence, why don't you go and gain some experience in a political unit?"
"..."
Su Wen was taken aback. He had originally thought that he could accept whatever Star God did, whether it was sending a message or using some kind of supernatural power.
But this particular training was something he hadn't expected.
"The cultivation of political wisdom depends on both the person and their experience."
The Star God explained, "Your awakening will make you the God of Wealth, and the initial intention of the Theater God and me was to ensure you maintained a pure heart and not let you get tainted by these messy things."
"So from a political perspective, you started from a very high position, a position that no one can reach in their entire life, or even dare to imagine."
"If you want to develop your skills, then let's give it some training."
With that, the Star God smiled and said, "Of course, we are all True God King now, so naturally we don't need to go down there to train."
"You create a clone, and I'll take care of the rest."
"And you, the real you, just go back to doing what you were doing."
"Anyway, you don't have anything else to do until the corpse of the Current Battle God returns, do you?"
Su Wen thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That works too."
After gaining the approval of the God of God of Wealth, the Star God became highly efficient.
He quickly arranged everything for his comrade.
Su Wen's clone, after completing all the necessary disguises, quietly arrived at a political unit in Jiang City, the Main Realm, to report for duty.
Division-level cadre!
After all, it was just a training experience. Once all the training was arranged, there was really no need to start from the bottom again.
Although this incident caused some ripples in a certain unit in Jiang City, it was not a big deal for those destined for Heavenly Mandate Bearer and martial arts practitioners.
Whatever!
They are destined for the Frontier Battlefield, so they look down on these administrative jobs that are confined to the rear of the Main Realm.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Finally, today, as if sensing something, Su Wen smiled.
"Star God, the Battle God has returned."
Upon hearing this, the Star God instantly appeared before Su Wen.
"So... we can begin?"
"Right."
Su Wen nodded slightly, and then, under the expectant gaze of the Star God, following the instructions provided by the River of Fate, he first used the wisp of aura provided by the Battle God to transfer the remnant spirit of the Battle Master to the Trading Space.
After nodding slightly to the Star God, Su Wen entered the Trading Space with a thought.
Next came the familiar self-introduction segment for the Battle Master.
"Battle Master, let me tell you in advance, welcome back!"
"???"
The Battle Master was taken aback, then said, "After I sensed that this was the Sub-Space-Time, I guessed that we might have met more than once."
"But precisely because we've met so many times, shouldn't you know that this wisp of my divine consciousness cannot remain here indefinitely?"
Su Wen grinned, a mysterious smile spreading across his face.
"No, Battle Master, this time I will resurrect you, and you will return once more!"
Battle Master: "???"
After a moment of silence, the Battle Master asked solemnly, "So, you've asked the River of Space-Time to intervene?"
Su Wen shook his head and said, "No, the River of Space-Time is too expensive; I can't afford it."
"Then what are you saying?"
The Battle Master frowned and said, "To be honest, I don't even know if I'm dead or not."
Although he's most likely dead, what if the original owner isn't?
Why does this Ninth Epoch Incumbent God of Wealth seem so unreliable?
"Although I didn't ask the River of Space-Time to intervene, I did ask the River of Fate to intervene."
Seeing the appearance of the Battle Master, Su Wen didn't keep him in suspense any longer and said with a smile, "So in a little while, you can come back again and see this dear world."
Battle Master: "?"
River of Fate?
Is it the River of Fate that I understand it to be?
