After Xi Yu’s death, he arrived at the Gates of the Underworld.

The staff of the Underworld told him: [Solve mundane issues in the human world, earn virtue, and we’ll grant you power.]

In essence: Work hard, not only will you survive, but we’ll also ensure you ascend to the heavens.

In his past life, Xi Yu was betrayed by his brother, who stole his divine status, destroyed his kingdom, massacred his people, seized his powers, and ultimately sabotaged his second chance at ascension, driving him to utter ruin.

Xi Yu readily agreed.

This time, he will reclaim everything that was taken from him!

Little did he know, in the modern world, this was just an empty promise.

And for this promise, he became a cross-boundary wage s*ave.

Xi Yu felt that his reincarnation was overkill—it had been 7,000 years since his death!

This was an era with no spiritual energy, no faith, and where ancient gods had fallen one by one.

In other words, apart from working, there was no other way to ascend.

Faithless gods descended to the mortal world to survive.

—When there’s no demand, create demand.

God 1: I’ll repent.

Xi Yu: Die.

Virtue +1, Power +2.

God 2: (Steals Xi Yu’s power directly) Help me, and I’ll repay you double.

Xi Yu: You die too.

God 3: Do you think that person next to you is trustworthy?

Xi Yu: I don’t know, but you’re dead.

God 4: Alright, I’ll end myself.

…Xi Yu turned to look at the smiling god beside him: Pretend you’re dead.

Xi Yu carved his way through obstacles and finally reached the Heavenly Court.

His brother looked at him and smiled.

Xi Yu looked back and smiled.

Brother: Didn’t expect this, did you? I held something back!

Divine Judge: Violation reported. Sentence handed down.

Brother: …

It’s not over.
