There is One New Rule Every Month Globally-Chapter 466 - 340: This is not a power, it is a curse._4

Chapter 466: Chapter 340: This is not a power, it is a curse._4

With a satisfied expression, he patted his belly and picked up the chopsticks, looking at the delicacies on the table, he said, “Shall we eat first?”

At this moment, he was in no hurry at all.

If he had previously wanted to quickly address the Insect Calamity, he was now in no hurry whatsoever.

It was like doing a day’s work and worrying why the boss hadn’t assigned any tasks for fear of not getting paid, but once the boss pays in advance, suddenly there’s no rush.

It didn’t matter anymore whether he worked or not.

The money was already in his pocket.

...

Just like his current situation.

“Right.”

Chen Yi picked up a pair of chopsticks with a dish he could name, pigeon meat, chewed it, and swallowed before casually saying, “Speaking of which, since your White Phoenix Clan has the ability to travel through the Timeline, why only go back three months?”

“How long have you been pulled into this game of ascension?”

“If you always travel forward in the Timeline, can’t you just escape the game of ascension? How nice would peace be? After the game descends, people have to keep dying.”

“…”

Xu Yue sat beside him, devoid of the usual majesty of a queen, instead using chopsticks to pick up some dishes Chen Yi couldn’t reach, placed them on a plate in front of him, and said softly,

“The White Phoenix Clan has no power to travel through the Timeline; it is not a power, but a curse.”

“This happened a very long time ago, long before the ascension game descended. We had this curse when our planet had only our Race, and with no comparison, we didn’t take this curse seriously.”

“Thought it was a rumor.”

“Until the ascension game descended and we gradually had contact with players from Alien Races, we then realized the curse was real.”

“Our White Phoenix Clan was indeed forgotten in the Timeline.”

“Our distance from the normal Timeline is three months, and we can neither shorten nor lengthen it, as if an invisible barrier separates us from the normal world forever.”

“…”

Chen Yi suddenly stopped his chopsticks and with a strange look on his face, turned to Xu Yue and said, “Miss Xu, you’re not thinking of asking us to break this curse for you, are you? That task is way beyond my capabilities, and even if it were within my capabilities, it couldn’t be solved just for five Zenith Radiance.”

“If you didn’t come to me to deal with the Insect Calamity but to break the curse, I can only say that I’m sorry, but I don’t have the power to do that.”

“Break the curse?”

Xu Yue was slightly startled, then she couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh softly, “Mr. Chen is joking. This curse is the greatest umbrella for our White Phoenix Clan. Our people are naturally kind and foolish.”

“Without this curse, the White Phoenix Clan wouldn’t be able to survive in the brutally competitive ascension game, and probably would have been wiped out long ago.”

“Just like the Races Mr. Chen wiped out.”

“The curse has brought many negative effects to us, but it also has positive impacts. For example, the maps our people have cleared are ones you all cleared three months ago.”

“This means that I can send my people to the normal Timeline to collect a large number of walkthroughs, ensuring that when our people enter the map, they have a detailed guide to it, and therefore can almost guarantee a no-injury clear.”

“And they can also avoid some trap maps.”

“You should be aware that the ascension game has quite a few maps that are deathtraps with a high mortality rate, and we can completely avoid these maps. After all, for us, this three-month curse is like possessing knowledge of the future.”

“What I mean to say is, since the ascension game descended, the White Phoenix Clan has accumulated a large amount of wealth by making use of this curse.”

“If you really decided to take action against the White Phoenix Clan, it might be somewhat difficult.”

“What next?”

Without raising his head from scooping up a mouthful of green vegetables, Chen Yi casually said, as long as they didn’t ask him to break the curse that’s fine—it sounded complicated anyway—and since Xu Yue wasn’t in a hurry, he wasn’t either.

He might as well enjoy the conversation. Speaking of which, how should he distribute those five Zenith Radiance once he gets back?

A Wife-Killing Buff definitely deserved one.

“And then, if you just nod your head, all of the wealth accumulated by the White Phoenix Clan over these days,”

“Will be yours, Mr. Chen.”
