A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 158

Chapter 158: From Today On, You Shall Be Called Wu Qilong

After careful consideration, Wu Hao decided to accept the suggestion of the True Dragon before him. After all, there would be times when he wouldn’t be around, and having a Late Stage Immortal Emperor True Dragon to guard the Wu Family would significantly increase their safety.

With this in mind, Wu Hao looked at the True Dragon and sighed as he spoke, “Although you say you are willing to serve me as your master, I’m someone who fears betrayal. How can you prove that you won’t betray me?”

“I, once more, swear today that I am willing to serve you, Senior. If I go against this, I will accept the punishment of being struck down by the laws of the universe,” the True Dragon declared.

As the True Dragon finished speaking, a rumbling sound echoed in the void, and Wu Hao immediately felt an invisible force being applied to him.

[ Ding, detecting the power of the laws of the universe, Host please check it out. ]

The voice of the System rang out, and upon hearing this, Wu Hao opened his panel and saw an additional message appear.

[ Laws of the Universe: A contract has been established with the Late Stage Immortal Emperor True Dragon (name pending). ]

“A contract of the laws of the universe? Even an Immortal Emperor cannot stand against these laws,” Wu Hao thought to himself. With this, he felt assured, as it eliminated the possibility of the True Dragon abandoning the Wu Family during times of trouble when he wasn’t around.

With this in mind, Wu Hao looked at the True Dragon and said in a very serious tone, “Since you have made this oath to the laws, then I will kindly accept you. From today on, you will officially become the guardian beast of the Wu Family. Do you have any objections?”

“No,” the True Dragon replied, shaking its head slightly. Just surviving was already a fortunate outcome; what more could it ask for?

Hearing this, Wu Hao nodded but quickly remembered something and curiously asked, “Do you have a name?”

The True Dragon was taken aback for a moment, then shook its head.

“Master, ever since I was born, I have been cultivating on this island and have never gone outside. There has only been me as a living being on this island, so I do not have a name.”

“Um, in that case, let me give you a name. My surname is Wu, so you will also take the surname Wu, and since you are a True Dragon, from today onwards, you shall be called Wu Qilong. Do you agree?”

Wu Hao thought for a moment and then gave the True Dragon a name that he felt was acceptable.

Hearing this, the True Dragon’s mouth twitched slightly. He wanted to question Wu Hao’s naming talent; what kind of name was that?

But then he remembered that Wu Hao was now his master. Did naming a pet really require consulting the pet’s opinion? What if Wu Hao had given him an even uglier name instead?

With that thought, the True Dragon respectfully replied,

“Thank you for the name, Master.”

“Well, in that case, let’s go outside.”

Wu Hao nodded in satisfaction, and in the next moment, the surrounding environment changed, and they returned to where they were before.

Although the author had written for more than a chapter, only a little over two minutes had passed outside. After seeing Wu Hao and Wu Qilong appear, the expressions of Su Qiaoran and the others slightly changed.

Wu Hao then said softly,

“Don’t worry, this True Dragon has become the guardian beast of our Wu Family from the Upper Realm. From today on, he will be called Wu Qilong.”

Upon hearing Wu Hao’s words, Su Qiaoran and the others internally reacted with surprise, clearly not expecting that such a powerful being would become the guardian beast of the Wu Family in such a short time.

While Su Qiaoran and Duan De were not very clear about it, Wu Yifan understood well; he had once encountered the aura of an Immortal Emperor in the Red Stone Immortal Emperor’s inheritance and knew that the True Dragon before him was at least at the level of an Immortal Emperor. He never expected it to become their family’s guardian beast. He could only say, Ancestor, impressive!

“Qilong, go back to the island and reside there. If any enemies come for the Wu Family, you can take action then.”

Wu Hao said to Wu Qilong, and Wu Qilong hurriedly turned and left, returning to the Dao Domain. The earlier punch from Wu Hao had already left him with light injuries, and he needed to go back and recuperate.

Su Qiaoran hesitated for a moment before speaking up,

“Husband, this island should not have a name, right? How about you give it a name?”

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao paused for a moment in thought, and then his eyes brightened. Clearing his throat, he said seriously,

“I have a great name; this island follows the Eight Dragons Worship the Eight Trigrams formation, so let’s call it Penglai Immortal Island.”

As soon as the words “Penglai Immortal Island” left Wu Hao’s mouth, Su Qiaoran and the others stood there in shock. They wanted to ask Wu Hao what connection there was between the former and the latter, but after pondering for a bit, they shook their heads in the end. Wu Hao must have his reasons, and besides, the name Penglai Immortal Island does sound pleasant. So it seemed unnecessary to fuss over it.

Thus, the matter was settled just like that.

“However, Penglai Immortal Island still needs some construction and to set up certain Arrays for protection. Plus, Qiaoran, you and the others won’t be able to ascend to the Upper Realm for a while, so it seems Penglai Immortal Island will be idle for some time.”

As Wu Hao thought of something, he spoke slowly. Wu Yifan, standing nearby, froze for a moment. He wanted to shout, “Am I even human? Am I really human?” Not to mention that he had also ascended to the Upper Realm!

But soon he fell silent. Even in the Lower Realm, he and Yi Fan would rarely return home, so indeed, even in the Upper Realm, the Wu Family wouldn’t have much time to go back.

“Alright, you all must have other matters. Since that’s the case, you can leave first. As for that orb, Yifan, you can decide how to handle it.”

Wu Hao looked at Yifan and, waving his hand, sent the two of them away.

After sending Wu Yifan and Duan De off, Wu Hao turned to the empty space beside him and spoke faintly.

“Fellow Daoist, come out and meet me.”

As soon as Wu Hao’s words fell, Li Zhengran’s figure slowly materialized. This sudden appearance startled Su Qiaoran, but she quickly reacted, realizing that this should be the Guardian arranged for Yifan by the Ancient Desolation Holy Land.

Having been a Quasi-Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flower Holy Land, she had also been assigned a Guardian before and was quite familiar with such arrangements.

Li Zhengran, however, looked at Wu Hao with a solemn expression. After a long pause, he finally spoke,

“I am Li Zhengran, greetings to you, Senior!”
