Crossing the Timeline: Is It Reasonable for Me, the God of Wealth, To Be Short on Money? Chapter 236

“Actually, when I think about it, it’s not so bad.”

Su Wen sighed and said, “Even though the river of ti is expensive, at least we have a way to buy it.”

“As long as we work hard, and with the God of Theater and the Star God getting stronger.”

“Hopefully, the Arrow Realm will also step up.”

“I think in a few years, we should be able to save up ten million riches.”

“When that ti cos, achieving immortality, with my immortality of body, it wouldn’t be too much to defeat the Earth Deity, right?”

Yuanbao raised an eyebrow and cautiously asked, “Master, you don’t really think that immortality of body will make your body stronger than the Emperor Level, do you?”

Su Wen: “…”

Isn’t that the case?

The river of ti said that the stronger the body, the less the blessing of immortality of body costs; is it just wordplay?

“Well, God of Wealth, I think you might be overthinking it.”

Yuanbao had prepared his words and tried to soften his tone.

“If ten million riches could push you past the Emperor Level straight to the Demigod level, why are we hesitating?”

“Let’s go for it!”

“Why worry about a hundred-year loan? Just talk to the river of ti, owe for a few months.”

“Pick the shortest repaynt period with the least interest.”

“After getting the blessing of ti and space, I’ll go with you to the Arrow Realms, and we’ll get our riches, right?”

“It’s only ten million riches!”

“With your power at the Demigod level, what’s there to worry about?”

“A quick trip through the Arrow Realm, how great would that be?”

“And this ‘loan’ from the river of ti isn’t really a loan; it’s more like a huge gift, isn’t it?”

“If you beco a Demigod, I’d also gain so serious power.”

“Like with the Snow Spirit Clan and the Magic Clan recently, God of Wealth, you wouldn’t even need to think—just go in, pay them to spare their lives, and if they don’t pay, take them out and grab the money.”

“All the riches in the world should be under the God of Wealth’s control; how dare they not pay?”

At this point, Yuanbao cald down a bit and then said, “But God of Wealth, knowing the river of ti, do you really think it’ll only charge ten million riches?”

“Forget ten million; even if it were a hundred million, we’d have to go for it.”

“Spending money on military strength is better than spending it on business skills.”

“So, the deal with the river of ti is probably… well, if I had to guess, it’s just going to mark your body with a bit of the power of ti and space.”

“Then, with that power, your body will gain so immortal traits.”

“Immortal traits co in different forms.”

“For example, an immortal body is tough to kill, but tough to kill doesn’t an unkillable, and it doesn’t an you’ll instantly jump to the Demigod level.”

“God of Wealth, do you get the difference here?”

Su Wen: “…”

At first, he was pretty tempted, thinking this gamble might be worth it.

If he could jump straight to the Demigod Level and beco China’s top powerhouse, a lot of issues would be sorted out.

Even the Arrow Realm would have to brace for China’s relentless assaults.

But after Yuanbao explained it to him, he realized he’d been overthinking.

The dark river is true to its na!

Why would it hand him such a massive benefit?

If he really beca a Demigod, he could take Yuanbao, storm the Holy Spirit Clan, and likely recover the Wealth Source.

After all, the Holy Spirit Clan is probably under the God of Wealth’s wing, and as a Demigod, he’d have the power to crush them.

“Steady growth, step by step, is the way to go.”

Su Wen sighed, “If we can progress normally, there’s no need for shortcuts.”

“Especially the river of ti’s shortcut; who knows when you might fall in and drown?”

He glanced at Yuanbao, “You should watch that movie and learn so montage techniques!”

“I’ll also respond to the river of ti.”

【Oh, spineless God of Wealth! You turned down the river of ti’s generous offer. Hard to believe you’d pass up such a deal for a bit of Wealth Source?】

【Maybe one day you’ll co crawling back, but today’s price won’t be there.】

【Your cowardice has left the river of ti deeply disappointed.】

【They can’t fathom why you’d reject a risk-free, win-win deal that only needs your nod.】

【If 40k a month is too steep, they can lower it.】

【How about 30k? Or even 20k?】

【But since you’re set, the river of ti won’t bother you further.】

【Still, as a valued client, they’ll keep you in mind.】

【On your future journeys through ti and space, just call out, and they’ll appear to settle your Wealth Source’s worth.】

【Oh, puzzle-loving God of Wealth! Hearing this, a few combat tricks popped into your head.】

【Like, if a powerful enemy is after you, summon the river of ti to settle your worth—would they still dare attack?】

【Or would the river of ti, seeing its big client in trouble, just take out the pursuer?】

【While the river of ti is a monopoly, you, as this celestial officer, control the buying end.】

【You need their rare items, and they need your Wealth Source.】

【In a clash of monopolies, who cos out on top?】

【Oh, ti-traveling God of Wealth! After dealing with the river of ti, you turn back to the God of Theater’s notes.】

【From them, you learn why the celestial officers admire you but keep their distance, even protecting and aiding your growth.】

【After you and the God of Theater visited the celestial officer in Arrow Realm No. 78 and got the lowdown on advancing to Demigod, a swarm of dark chains struck hours later.】

【Right before you, that helpful, respectful celestial officer, who answered all your questions, was killed!】

【It was this act that made the God of Theater realize why the celestial officers avoided him.】

【They stayed away to protect themselves.】

【The celestial officers are in danger too.】
