Chapter 7
“Such drastic changes?” Su Wen frowned. If each journey to the future through the chaos in time and space led to a different future, it was beyond his expectations. This time, the Jiang City Battlefield was like this; who knows what it would be like next time? It all comes down to luck! If you’re lucky, you might live longer; if not, you could be wiped out immediately. But if these future changes were triggered by one of his actions…
“Could it be the Star God?” Su Wen quickly identified the key issue. Last time, he completed the time jump at the police station, and it ended swiftly without much discussion. He hadn’t said much; the only possible impact was owing the police station one million and borrowing three million from Li Wenze. Four million is a lot for an ordinary person, but in the grand scheme of an era, what is four million? That leaves only one person: the Star God!
Reflecting further, Su Wen recalled practicing the Body Refinement Technique several times in his room to hone his skills, feeling his energy surge afterward. If all went as expected, the Star God must have been observing him from nearby, found the Body Refinement Technique impressive, and recorded it. If the Body Refinement Technique emerged ten years earlier, significant changes in the future wouldn’t be surprising. Extending the timeline to ten years, the effects of the Body Refinement Technique would be astounding to imagine.
But all this was just Su Wen’s speculation. Once he returned, he would know the specifics. If the Star God had recorded it, he would surely be questioned upon his return. After all, the Body Refinement Technique was originally developed by the Star God and the abilities research team, so it’s their creation. Taking it early isn’t unexpected.
【Not far from you, battle fluctuations rage.】
【Do you wish to proceed to observe the battle and seek an opportunity to join, or retreat to find a new path?】
Su Wen didn’t hesitate and chose to retreat.
【Oh, timid God of Wealth! Acknowledging your low strength, you’ve made a wise choice.】
【On your retreat, you see ruined walls and collapsed structures, especially the energy and blood remnants in the craters, starkly illustrating the brutality of war.】
