"Battle Master, the situation in our Ninth Era is somewhat unique."
Su Wen sighed and then recounted to the Battle God everything he had encountered in the Ninth Era and his struggles during that time.
"Division of Divine Seat?"
"Lock the limit?"
"The Remnant Clan are such trash..."
The Battle Master took a deep breath, hesitating to speak.
He then lowered his head and sighed softly.
The next moment, he flipped his right hand, and a dazzling crystal that shone with nine colors appeared in his hand.
"This is the inheritance of the Battle God's Divine Seat that I possess."
"You handed it over to that child, and the lineage has almost been severed. You can imagine how you've managed all these years."
"Thanks for your hard work."
As he spoke, he placed the nine-colored crystal in front of Su Wen.
He then waved to Su Wen and vanished instantly.
He originally thought that the Battle God in the Ninth Era was losing the big picture for small gains.
It now seems that the Battle God in the Ninth Era had no chance to even get a watermelon; encountering even a sesame seed when he was nearly starving was already considered quite fortunate.
Although he had a time-traveling exchange with the Incumbent God of Wealth in ancient times and knew of the hardships of the Ninth Era.
But they've even lost the most basic inheritance of Divine Seat status... Does the Remnant Clan really have such capabilities?
"Here, a gift from your ancestors."
Su Wen handed the nine-colored crystal to the other party and instructed the Battle God to absorb it quickly and try to thoroughly digest and absorb the inheritance inside in the shortest possible time.
In this way, the crystallized memories he brings back will have extraordinary value.
After all, in the Main Space-Time, the Current Battle God might not be able to arrive for some time.
Therefore, if the Battle God efficient, the Battle God in the Main Space-Time will likely reap great rewards this time.
Time flies, and forty years later...
Over the past forty years, many world-class events have occurred.
The most famous of these, and the one that the Descender Universe publicized extensively and considered infamous, was the Star God's unilateral breach of the treaty, completely denying the previous negotiations and transactions.
You want me to just retreat like this?
Impossible!
This Seven Saints of the Descenders, including the Zither Saint, who denounced the Star God as utterly shameless.
However, the Descenders also kept a secret during the transaction. Soon, the agreement that the Theater God, the Shadow God, and the Star God had reached with the Descender Universe spread throughout the entire Divine Fate Universe.
In particular, rumors began to spread that the Theater God was corrupt and accepted bribes, the Shadow God was accepting bribes on a large scale, and the Star God was demanding exorbitant prices and not caring about the interests of the Divine Fate Universe.
However, everything the Descender Universe did did not cause any ripples on the Eastern Frontier Defense Line battlefield.
Even... the way the Descender Universe was furious was ridiculed by countless soldiers. Trying to tarnish His Majesty the Star God's reputation in this way—wasn't that a bit foolish?
Do they look like idiots?
Who among those standing here isn't an exceptional individual?
Those who could accompany the main force on expeditions to another world were all absolute confidants of the Divine Mandate Bearer.
Besides, these things are perfectly normal on the battlefield, aren't they?
Deceiving and swindling the enemy, earning a terrible reputation within their ranks—isn't that basic tactic?
Should mortal enemies try to gain a good reputation within the enemy camp?
We neither trade nor rely on others.
What would we need that thing for?
As for the public opinion generated in the Main Realm?
The Star God had foreseen what the Descender Universe would do.
Besides this, what else can the other party do?
Therefore, he had already begun to make preparations in advance to prevent such incidents. After the backlash that the Descenders perceived had erupted, public opinion in the Main Realm quickly unified under the Star God's prior arrangements and moved in the opposite direction to what the Descenders had expected.
After nearly thirty years of negotiation and struggle, the two sides finally reached a compromise at a point of equilibrium.
The Descender Universe will provide another batch of high-grade resources to compensate the Divine Fate Universe for the war losses incurred over the years.
And under the guidance of the Star God, the Divine Fate Universe will completely withdraw from the Descender Universe.
The internal reasons for this are unknown.
But after obtaining the relevant resources, the Star God truly led his army out of the Descender Universe.
"Star God, why don't you try to cheat one more time?"
The Battle God stood in the vast void between two worlds, watching as the Descender Universe defense array and sealed the boundary gate, and asked in confusion.
Beside him, the Star God spoke up, "That's enough. The original plan after the Current Battle God returned was to go back as soon as possible to start the war against the Remnant Clan. I didn't intend to go back on my word."
"But the wealth of the Descenders is somewhat beyond my expectations."
"So wealthy, yet so stingy when it comes to compensating us."
"I'm very dissatisfied with this, so after discussing it with the God of Wealth, I decided to tear up the agreement and demand compensation from him again."
"Most importantly, the compensation they paid last time was done covertly; it couldn't be made public."
"So it wouldn't hurt to make a request publicly just once."
The Star God paused for a moment, then continued, "But this time the compensation is made public. Of course, the other party's depletion of resources is also a major reason."
"We harvested all the reserves accumulated over the years in one go."
"Shouldn't we give the other person some time to develop further?"
"The repeated breaches of the treaty, especially in such a short period of time, are rather pointless."
Not far away, the Current Battle God watched the Star God and the air beside him talking, and understood each other perfectly.
It seems that his junior is standing here.
"Star God, you retreat slowly. I'll hold the rear of the main force."
The Current Battle God transmitted his voice, "Withdraw those troops in the rear that are preventing the descendant Descender Universe against us!"
"The main force should proceed to the Frontier Battlefield as soon as possible."
"The battle we need to fight against the Remnant Clan is the first one we must prepare for."
The Star God nodded slightly, and then, with a surge of divine thought, the structure of the entire massive military force began to change.
The powerful forces Descender Universe began to contract and make an emergency retreat.
Although some generals expressed their incomprehension about Star God's decision, this was the latest decision made by Star God's president, so it must have a deeper purpose.
Perhaps the plan is to use the anger over the broken treaty to lure the Descender Universe into a trap, and then launch another attack.
In short, obey all orders from the Star God President!
At the same moment, Descender Universe.
"Buzz!"
A ripple flashed, and then the Zither Saint, with his icy gaze, appeared outside the boundary gate, staring at the structural changes in the main force.
From a military perspective, this is an excellent opportunity for them to retaliate.
However, rationally speaking, Star God would never do something that would destroy its own defenses.
Therefore, the Descenders did not choose to attack, but simply watched them quietly.
Watching the other side retreat, watching them... take their world's high-level resources and leave with a flourish.
