A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 194

Chapter 194: Wu Yifan’s Unease, Setting Off

“Rest assured, if that person comes, and you can’t handle it, I will take action myself.”

Upon hearing Lin Tian’en’s words, the Blood Soul Sect Envoy snorted coldly and then vanished before Lin Tian’en.

In an instant, Lin Tian’en found himself alone in the Small World. Looking around at the emptiness, he felt a deep sense of melancholy within, yet after a long moment, he resolutely turned to leave. He was not mistaken; one must look out for themselves, as the heavens would punish those who didn’t. Furthermore, this was a critical moment for the Lin Family’s survival, leaving them no choice.

Meanwhile, within the Ancient Desolation Holy Land, Wu Yifan had just infused the resources needed to advance to the Ancient Dao Body into his body, waiting for the day when his Ancient Sacred Body would transform into the Ancient Dao Body after refinement.

“Based on the current timeframe, it seems it will take at least a hundred years to fully refine. Of course, with some external assistance, it might go a bit faster.”

Feeling the situation within him, Wu Yifan thought to himself that everything was going much more smoothly than he had anticipated, as if the Ancient Sacred Body had been destined to align with him.

However, after checking his condition, Wu Yifan suddenly remembered something, and his brows furrowed.

“What happened to Duan De? It’s been so long; he should have returned to the Holy Land by now. Could something have gone wrong?”

Thinking this, Wu Yifan took out the communication celestial stone he had with Duan De, but after channeling his celestial energy into it, there was no response. This made Wu Yifan increasingly uneasy.

Soon, he stood up. If something had happened to Duan De, it likely meant the Lin Family had taken action.

In any case, as his subordinate, he needed to investigate thoroughly.

Just as Wu Yifan left the Ancient Desolation Holy Land, Li Pangtian and Li Zhengran stood in the air above the Holy Land, watching Wu Yifan depart. After a long while, Li Pangtian finally spoke.

“Zhengran, follow him until the Holy Son’s Ancient Sacred Body transforms into the Ancient Dao Body, then return.”

“Yes, Holy Lord!”

With that, Li Zhengran nodded and followed suit.

Once the two disappeared from his awareness, Li Pangtian slowly began to speak, a hint of unease in his tone.

“Why does my heart feel a vague sense of unease? But no one in the Upper Realm can threaten our Ancient Desolation Holy Land. Furthermore, Yifan’s Ancestor is much stronger than I am; even if the Blood Emperor intervened, he probably wouldn’t be a match, right?”

“So…”What am I thinking?”

Meanwhile, on Penglai Immortal Island, Wu Hao was feeling bored all alone since Su Qiaoran had gone into seclusion. Not needing to enter seclusion himself, he was left to pass the time aimlessly.

“Ahhh, can’t they develop any faster and help the Wu Commerce Association become the largest in the Upper Realm?”

Wu Hao exclaimed in frustration, feeling an intense pain, knowing he was stuck in the Xuantian Realm.

But after the pain, he needed to look ahead. Once he calmed down, Wu Hao glanced beyond Penglai Immortal Island.

“Forget it, I’ll go out and find some fun. Since Qiaoran is in seclusion, she won’t be out anytime soon. Plus, with the protection of the great formation, even someone at the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle can’t get in.”

With his mind made up, Wu Hao left Penglai Immortal Island and quickly headed toward the Southern Region.

On the other side, with his disguise and the help of the Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl, Wu Yifan soon arrived near the Lin Family’s territory. However, when he got there, his expression slightly darkened.

“The Lin Family has activated their protective family formation; could it be because of me? If that’s the case, I can’t recklessly act.”

Wu Yifan thought privately. If the protective family formation wasn’t activated, it would have been easy to find Duan De.

But since the formation was active, any reckless move on his part would easily alert the Lin Family, allowing them to use Duan De to coerce him into surrendering.

With this in mind, Wu Yifan decided to lie in wait around the Lin family.

After lying in wait for a full three days and nights, Wu Yifan finally encountered a Lin Family disciple leaving. Once the disciple was a certain distance away from the Lin family’s boundaries, Wu Yifan suddenly made his move.

That Lin Family disciple was only at the level of a Mortal World Immortal, and even being completely aboveboard wouldn’t make him a match for Wu Yifan, not to mention Wu Yifan seizing the chance to ambush him.

Soon, Wu Yifan brought the Lin Family disciple into the Small World. Once inside, Wu Yifan spoke coldly.

“Now, tell me, has your Lin Family caught that grave robber recently?”

The Lin Family disciple was filled with terror after being captured by Wu Yifan, fearing that he had encountered some enemy. But upon hearing Wu Yifan’s question, he quickly realized that the notorious grave robber who had recently forced the family to take such serious action was standing right in front of him.

Realizing this, the Lin Family disciple hurriedly shouted,

“I’ll talk, I’ll tell you everything! I just beg you to spare my life!”The Lin Family indeed captured a grave robber named Duan De some time ago, and they have been keeping him in their family dungeon for rigorous interrogation,” the Lin Family disciple said.

Upon hearing about Duan De’s harsh treatment, Wu Yifan furrowed his brow, looking somewhat displeased. Given Duan De’s physique, how could he withstand the Lin Family’s torment? It seemed he must rescue Duan De as soon as possible.

“Do you know the location of the dungeon?” Wu Yifan turned back to look at the Lin Family disciple, who briefly hesitated before quickly nodding that he did.

However, in the next moment, Wu Yifan reached out and touched the disciple’s head.

“Lying to me? That’s simply absurd.”

With just a glance, Wu Yifan could tell something was off; it was clear that the disciple was trying to share a false location, attempting to lead him into a trap. After probing the Lin Family disciple’s memories, Wu Yifan learned about the current situation of the Lin Family, and his expression grew extremely serious.

The Lin Family had as many as forty Immortal Venerables, including four at the pinnacle, six in the Late Stage, ten in the Intermediate Stage, and twenty in the Initial Stage. With his current strength, he was unable to contend with so many Immortal Venerables unless his Ancient Sacred Body transformed into the Ancient Dao Body; otherwise, it would be impossible.

“I need to think of a way to infiltrate the Lin Family and bring Duan De out.”

With this thought, Wu Yifan glanced at the recently deceased Lin Family disciple, then considered his Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl, quickly coming to a decision. He carefully sensed the energy signature of the Lin Family disciple, then closed his eyes. As he activated the Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl within him, it began to spin rapidly. In the next moment, Wu Yifan’s face also began to change, swiftly transforming into that of the Lin Family disciple he had just slain, even his aura completely shifted.

Seeing this, Li Zhengran, who was hiding in the dark, was also shocked. It was clear that he had not expected the effect of the Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl to be this powerful; the transformed appearance was unrecognizable even to him as an Immortal Emperor.
