Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 496

Chapter 479: Coming and Going!

Multiverse.

Death Planet, city in the wilderness.

The young Shen Ye had just finished dinner with his parents and returned to the backyard to practice his swordsmanship.

“Short on money?”

He realized his predicament in the real world and couldn’t help but smile, “Such a simple matter, I’ll solve it for you first.”

Door!

As he let out a low cry, the Heaven-Reaching Door suddenly opened.

“Close your door, Shen Ye.”

A female voice rang out.

Shen Ye looked back and saw a tall, blonde beauty standing on the wall, looking at him with a smile.

“Chatelet!”

He called out, jumped straight onto the wall, and hugged her.

Chatelet let him hold her, bit his ear, and chided him, “Let’s talk about business first.”

“What business is there?” Shen Ye said.

“Of course there is – the Chaos Ark is approaching the multiverse,” Chatelet said.

“It’s here?” Shen Ye’s expression turned serious, and he mused, “The gatekeeper of the multiverse is Failun. As long as Failun is safe, it shouldn’t be able to find the location of the multiverse.”

“So we can’t open the door for now – the moment the door opens, with the strength of the Chaos Ark, it can immediately detect Failun’s location,” Chatelet said.

Chaos Ark…

Did it win in that three-sided war?

Shen Ye reached out and formed a hand seal.

Deep underground in the Primordial World.

Two people immediately sensed Shen Ye’s call.

The Valkyrie and the End of All Epochs!

“What is it?” asked the End of All Epochs.

Through their contract, Shen Ye transmitted his thought, “Perform a sacrifice for that seventeenth-tier powerhouse, and also check if he’s still alive.”

“No problem, but you’ll probably have to prepare the offerings yourself,” the Valkyrie interjected.

“I’ll prepare them immediately,” Shen Ye said.

Before long.

Shen Ye, Chatelet, the End of All Epochs, and the Valkyrie gathered in the underground palace.

“Let’s begin…”

The Valkyrie chanted the incantation for the sacrificial ritual.

Runes shimmered in the void, as if controlled by an invisible hand, converging into a rune altar.

The sacrifice began.

The Valkyrie clasped her hands and began to chant the second part of the incantation, calling for the descent of the Great Will.

“Please, in this sacred place, descend and accept our offerings—”

Chatelet suddenly struck the Valkyrie’s neck.

The Valkyrie immediately fell unconscious.

The ritual was interrupted.

“Don’t worry, I just made her unconscious,” Chatelet said to the End of All Epochs, then casually tossed the Valkyrie to her.

The End of All Epochs caught the Valkyrie, confirmed she was unharmed, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

“Why did you do that?” Shen Ye asked.

“The altar opened the sacrificial channel, which is normal, but the aura from the other side is off,” Chatelet said.

“How so?” Shen Ye asked.

“It just doesn’t feel right, trust me.” Chatelet’s eyes changed from emerald green to azure blue, she blinked at him, and then quickly changed back.

Azure blue, that was Pe’a Suo.

Pe’a Suo possessed the ability of foresight.

Then it was correct.

Shen Ye subconsciously glanced at his palm.

The fortune-telling was not activated and was in silent mode, but it also showed a dark fate line.

…Still not right.

The sacrificial ritual had clearly been interrupted, so why was there still danger?

“Be careful,” Shen Ye said.

Before he finished speaking, the scattered sacrificial runes gathered again, quickly forming an altar.

“We didn’t sacrifice anything, how did the ritual still succeed?”

The End of All Epochs asked.

“Because the other side forcibly opened the sacrifice!” Chatelet said.

On the altar, a giant, luminous head quietly emerged.

It was that seventeenth-tier powerhouse!

“Save… save me…”

It let out painful and desperate groans.

…

On the other side.

The real world.

Noodle shop.

The large bowl of noodles, at least three taels, was already eaten clean.

He also added three meat buns and two steamed buns.

Meat buns, two bites each.

Steamed buns, dipped in noodle soup, were eaten in a few bites.

Then he picked up the ice coke and drank it all.

Comfortable!

Shen Ye let out a long sigh, feeling like he hadn’t eaten so satisfyingly in a long time.

Since the door was temporarily inconvenient to open—

He needed to seriously consider the money issue.

Actually, it was nothing.

With his skills, it wouldn’t be difficult to earn money by doing odd jobs.

In short.

His clone was leveling up in the base.

His younger self was investigating the Chaos Ark.

So what about him?

He would earn money first.

While earning money, he would also figure out the situation in the real world.

Shen Ye wiped his mouth, stood up, and prepared to praise the noodle shop owner about the taste of the noodles, so that the owner would also have a good day.

When he stood up, he found that the entire noodle shop was empty.

At some point, the customers, waiters, and owner had all left the noodle shop.

“Huh? Was I too engrossed in eating just now?”

Shen Ye sat back down, took a sip of Coke, and waited quietly.

— Something out of the ordinary must mean there’s trouble.

The next second.

A blonde, blue-eyed foreigner appeared at the entrance of the noodle shop.

“Shen Ye?”

The foreigner asked.

“I am,” Shen Ye nodded.

“Hello, Major General,” the foreigner walked in and sat opposite him.

Major General?

It seemed this was the identity Pe’a Suo had prepared for him.

— He wondered what kind of Major General he was.

“Is there something you need?” Shen Ye asked.

“The Asian branch of the ‘Angel’s Graveyard’ was single-handedly destroyed by you, and all stored data was incinerated, which put us in a very passive position,” Mike said.

“They wanted to kill me, I couldn’t just stand there and let them kill me,” Shen Ye said.

“Has your revenge been fulfilled?” Mike asked.

“It should be—because all my missions have been confirmed as completed. By the way, who are you?” Shen Ye asked.

“I’m Mike, a Lieutenant Colonel, like you, I belong to the Galactic Revolutionary Army,” Mike showed a kind smile. “Many people like to find me as an intermediary to mediate between both sides.”

“Are you representing the ‘Angel’s Graveyard’?” Shen Ye asked.

“I don’t represent them; I just hope you’ll be magnanimous and give them a chance. The high-ranking members of the ‘Angel’s Graveyard’ would like to meet with you in person to apologize,” Mike said.

Apology?

I killed your project manager and all your subordinates, so I guess I’ve vented my anger.

And you still want to bother me?

Then—

Wait!

Apology…

Are they trying to buy me off with money?

How ridiculous.

Do they really think that little money can buy people off?

“How much do they plan to give me—no, how do they plan to apologize?” Shen Ye coughed lightly and asked.

“Shall I have him speak with you in person?” Mike said.

“No problem,” Shen Ye said.

— Cash is also acceptable.

The exchange rate is still good now.

Whether it’s European or American currency, he can accept it all.

As the two were speaking, a bearded man in a black robe with a pair of white wings on his back appeared outside the noodle shop.

Shen Ye raised his eyebrows.

Victoria’s Secret second half?

The man slowly walked to the door and announced loudly:

“Respected Shen Ye, we have performed a great sacrifice and divination, and we have learned that you possess an extremely powerful weapon.”

“You killed all our people with this weapon.”

“You destroyed our research project.”

As Shen Ye listened, he caught on to something amiss.

Why does he keep talking about my weapon?

— Where’s the money?

“What do you want to say?” Shen Ye asked.

“At just over 20 years old, relying on an extremely powerful weapon, he obtained the rank of major general.”

A strange meaning appeared in the man’s eyes, and he said with a half-smile:

“Do you guess how many people would come to snatch your weapon if this news got out?”

“You probably won’t even have a chance to sleep well.”

“Or rather—do you still want to live?”

Shen Ye was a little speechless.

Who was the last person who spoke to him like that?

Bai Yelang, the Eighth Realm of Truth.

It possessed that strength and wanted to take my life at any moment.

Do you also want my life?

Come!

Prove your strength!

Shen Ye opened his mouth and said, “Brother Mike, you said they came to apologize, that’s why I didn’t make a move.”

“They might be trying to raise the stakes to negotiate with you later,” Mike shrugged, helpless.

Shen Ye looked at the entrance of the noodle shop and said indifferently, “This bearded man threatened me as soon as he saw me. He’s so impolite and has no manners.”

The bearded man froze.

He neither spoke nor made any further moves, just stood there stiffly.

— Truth Fourth Stage · Burst Drummer!

“You attacked the opponent for ‘having no manners’.”

“The opponent is too weak, and this attack has an overwhelming effect, directly forming a deterrence and putting the opponent into a ‘trance’ state.”

The bearded man trembled uncontrollably, seemingly trying to employ some technique.

But he couldn’t even move a finger.

— He was completely controlled!

Mike’s face changed several times, and he cleared his throat, suddenly smiling:

“Major General, perhaps you could give him another chance to rephrase his words.”

“—I believe this time he’ll know what to say and what not to say.”

Shen Ye seemed to not hear him.

He just silently picked up a chopstick from the table. The chopstick stood vertically, drawing a line in the air.

A fierce curved blade light flew from the chopstick, instantly sweeping past the noodle shop door.

Whoosh—

A head shot up into the sky.

Amidst the swirling blood mist, the head flew far away, landing on the deserted street with a “thud,” rolling a few times before stopping.

The expression on the head’s face was still one of disbelief.

The headless body stood at the entrance of the noodle shop, swayed in the strong wind, but remained unmoving.

He died.

But his body still stood, suppressed, unable to move an inch.

Such a bizarre scene made Mike’s face turn pale.

Shen Ye felt a little displeased too.

He rested his chin on his hand, tapping the table with his chopsticks:

“Mike, I know you’re here to mediate, but I’m still young and don’t quite understand all the ins and outs, nor do I know how they intend to apologize.”

“Once I feel he’s threatening me.”

“I will retaliate.”

Mike looked at the headless body still standing tall, unable to move, and couldn’t help but pull out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

This young man killed the head of the “Angel’s Graveyard” in Asia with a single chopstick.

Just one chopstick!

Mike was about to say something, but suddenly turned his head and looked outside the noodle shop.

The corpse and head outside the door suddenly disappeared.

Immediately after.

A voice followed:

“Young man, your swordsmanship is good, but such swordsmanship needs a precious sword to exert its power.”

“Your sword—”

“I’ll take it.”

Shen Ye subconsciously looked down.

He saw that the Rain Poison Blade hanging from his waist was indeed gone.

Two lines of faint luminous text quietly appeared:

“You have been hit by a special non-attack technique.”

“This technique cannot harm you, but it can take things from you.”

— It’s just stealing.

Shen Ye smiled and put the chopstick back on the table.

“No need to fight.”

He said.

“Giving up so quickly? Or are you trying to get your precious sword back this way?” the voice asked.

Shen Ye spoke:

“Mike said you were here to apologize, so I’ll give you ten more seconds.”

“If, after ten seconds, you still can’t offer an effective apology—”

“Don’t blame me for turning ruthless.”

The voice immediately retorted, “We only respect the strong. A callow youth like you, who can’t even hold onto his weapon, doesn’t deserve our respect.”

“Besides, you’ve killed so many of our people.”

Shen Ye sighed in disappointment.

— It seems this month’s “Lending Treasure” will still require him to work to pay it back.

He placed his phone on the table and waited quietly for ten seconds.

Time’s up.

His mood worsened even further.

“Mike, are you really here to mediate?” Shen Ye asked.

“I usually do such things for everyone, but this time it was my fault. I didn’t expect them to even steal your precious sword.” Mike tried his best to appear sincere.

“So what now?” Shen Ye asked.

“I’ve taken up so much of your time, and I was blind to give these guys an opportunity to deal with you—that was my mistake.”

“Major General, please send me your bank card number.”

“I need to make a sincere compensation.”

Mike said nervously.

— This Major General Shen Ye was too calm.

Even with his weapon stolen, he showed no anxiety or panic.

He must have a backup plan!

Regardless of whether he wins or loses, he had indeed handled this matter improperly.

An apology was in order.

Mike glanced at Shen Ye, but found that Shen Ye seemed to come alive, with a radiant look on his face.

“Bank card? Oh, you didn’t mean to, I’m really sorry,” Shen Ye hesitated.

Mike immediately interjected, “Please don’t refuse—”

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the other party push the phone towards him.

A bank card number was displayed on the phone screen.

“…” Mike.

Mike suddenly relaxed.

He even felt a little grateful.

Anything that money can solve is a small matter.

The other party is a Major General, who even owns a spaceship, so money means nothing to him!

But!

This Major General was willing to accept his money.

What is this?

This is giving him a way out!

Young and promising, with a bright future, and also understanding.

“Major General Shen,” Mike’s tone carried a hint of genuine respect, “I’ll pay 2 billion first.”

Shen Ye slowly looked up at him, saying nothing.

2 billion!

Are you kidding me?

Or, are there really 2 billion?

— Then wouldn’t eating whatever I want every day be no problem at all!

I could even spend as much as I want on games!

With 2 billion, I wouldn’t even have to leave the house. I could get the best computer, stay at home all day, and play whatever I want!

Shen Ye took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

Mike, being a shrewd man, knew immediately that the other party was a bit emotional.

Oh no.

He’s still angry!

After all, what was lost was such a treasure sword, which could not be measured by money at all.

And he would face the pursuit of the Angel’s Graveyard later.

2 billion was indeed not enough.

Mike gritted his teeth, forced a smile, and said, “In addition to the 2 billion, I will specially arrange for a customized mech to be given to you as a sincere apology.”

“—Do you think that’s acceptable?”

Mech available too!

Shen Ye’s heart trembled, and he could no longer suppress the curve of his lips.

He reached out and patted Mike on the shoulder, saying,

“Mike, you are indeed a qualified intermediary. I’ll give you this respect.”

Mike breathed a massive sigh of relief, quickly pulled out his phone, opened the screen, and brought up the banking app.

He glanced at the account number on Shen Ye’s phone, and while inputting it, he said,

“Major General Shen, I have some tasks here that require experts, do you think you can lend a hand? The remuneration is negotiable, of course.”

Shen Ye shook his head, though, and said indifferently, “I have my own things to do.”

— With 2 billion, who would fight to the death with you?

I’ve never been willing to spend money on gacha pulls in games, and every time I saw other people’s cards, I’d be so envious.

This time, I need to make up for the regrets of my youth!

And those flying mounts!

And titles!

— Order takeout every day! The most expensive kind!

“Then forget it.”

Mike said with some regret.

He quickly operated his phone, looking down.

Shen Ye watched from the side.

— Mike first called the bank, and after confirmation, he entered his bank account number on the phone, and then the amount:

2,000,000,000 yuan.

Shen Ye’s breathing stopped.

Mike clicked “Confirm” on the transfer interface.

Immediately after, a password input box popped up on the interface.

Now, as long as the password is entered, the money will be credited!

Mike skillfully entered the password.

Shen Ye was about to feel happy, but saw a face recognition box pop up again.

— The amount was too high, requiring double confirmation.

That’s nothing.

The phone camera turned on, facing the ceiling.

Mike raised his phone to aim at his face for recognition.

Beep beep beep!

Mike looked at Shen Ye in surprise.

What was that sound?

Shen Ye looked at Mike’s stomach and spread his hands, “Not from here.”

Beep beep beep beep beep—

The sound became more and more urgent.

This time, Mike also discovered the source of the sound.

It was his stomach.

Boom—

A deafening explosion was accompanied by a blinding flash of light.

The entire block was melted by the high temperature and then leveled by the shockwave.

Looking down from a high altitude.

A mushroom cloud slowly rose.

Wind.

Chaotic destructive energy turned into a storm, sweeping across the land.

Half of the city was engulfed in destruction.

After a full dozen breaths.

Shen Ye, unharmed, stood in mid-air.

A line of faint glowing text quietly appeared before his eyes:

“The truth suppression formed by the ‘Blind Lion’s Pride’ has not been broken, so you have not suffered any damage.”

Shen Ye, however, paid no attention to this prompt.

He clutched a phone tightly.

www tootkan co

Mike’s phone.

— The phone screen had gone black.

Before face recognition could be completed, the nuclear explosion had occurred.

The transfer was incomplete.

2 billion!

He could have gotten 2 billion, but due to the explosion, the money wasn’t deposited into his account.

The intermediary for the transfer also died.

Shen Ye trembled with anger.

“Failun, kill them all for me.”

He said in a hoarse voice.

At the same moment.

In a secret room.

The Rain Poison Blade on the table suddenly jumped up and, in front of everyone, transformed into a four-meter-tall red skeleton.

“Aha, you’ve angered him—guess what your fate will be now?”

Failun said gloatingly.

The next second.

Its body suddenly began to expand, gradually breaking through the entire building, transforming into a giant dragon dozens of meters tall.

“Perish, you souls seeking your own demise.”

The giant dragon spewed a mouthful of flames downwards.

The crowd was touched by the flames and instantly turned to ashes.
