A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 25

“Stop, stand right there, don’t come any closer. Who exactly are you?”

As Su Qiaoran realized that Wu Yifan was about to approach her, she finally reacted and called out to him to halt.

Upon hearing her words, Wu Yifan obediently stopped. After all, this was his Great Grandmother, and if Great Grandfather found out he had disrespected her, who knows what kind of punishment he would face?

Seeing him stop, Su Qiaoran breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Wu Yifan and asked, “Who are you? Why did you attack Chen Feng and the others?”

After thinking about it, Wu Yifan realized that Great Grandfather hadn’t specifically instructed him to hide his identity.

With that in mind, he immediately knelt on one knee and respectfully addressed Su Qiaoran, “I am Wu Yifan, a descendant of the Wu Family. Greetings to Great Grandmother!”

Su Qiaoran was taken aback by this sudden action. However, once she recovered, her astonishment only grew.

It was true that she had heard from Wu Hao about the fact that they even had a Great Grandson, but Wu Hao hadn’t mentioned just how powerful he was; he had easily defeated Great Saints!

In that moment, Su Qiaoran started to doubt her own life choices—how could it be that as Great Grandmother, her cultivation was not as strong as that of her own Great Grandson? If this got out, it would be quite embarrassing.

Yet, Su Qiaoran still did not fully believe Wu Yifan’s identity. After considering it, she asked a few more questions, like who Great Grandfather was and who her own father was, before finally accepting that Wu Yifan really was her Great Grandson.

“Get up, Great Grandson.”

Once she learned that Wu Yifan was indeed her Great Grandson, Su Qiaoran’s attitude noticeably softened, and she hurriedly urged him to stand.

After a moment of thought, Su Qiaoran then asked, “Did your Great Grandfather send you here?”

“Yes, Great Grandfather is worried that you might encounter danger inside, so he sent me in to ensure your safety.”

Wu Yifan spoke without hesitation. After all, he loved cultivating, but that didn’t mean he was oblivious to the matters between men and women. Why not say something that could enhance the relationship between Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother?

Upon hearing Wu Yifan’s words, Su Qiaoran obviously felt her heart warm. She hadn’t expected Wu Hao to be so considerate. However, since they were still in front of her Great Grandson, Su Qiaoran suppressed her feelings of gratitude and cleared her throat before speaking.

“Alright, now that the danger has been resolved, you should go do what you need to do.”

Even though Wu Yifan was her Great Grandson, this was their first unexpected meeting, so Su Qiaoran hadn’t thought about how to interact with him. Therefore, letting Wu Yifan leave was the best choice.

But upon hearing this, a displeased expression appeared on Wu Yifan’s face as he said,

“No, Great Grandmother. Great Grandfather ordered me to protect you inside. If anything happens to you, or if Great Grandfather finds out that I left my post, he will definitely scold me.”

“Does he dare? Just say it’s my orders. You should go do what you need to do.”

“Fine, Great Grandmother, please take care. If anything happens, contact me.”

Wu Yifan handed his Communication Jade to Su Qiaoran before turning to leave.

There was another reason he entered the Magnificent Secret Realm: it was rumored that within the legacy of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor, there were Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that could help him unlock the Eightfold Restriction on the Ancient Sacred Body. Obtaining them would undoubtedly lead to significant improvement in his strength, allowing him to seek revenge as well.

Once Wu Yifan left, Su Qiaoran finally let out a sigh of relief.

She hadn’t let Wu Yifan leave for no reason; she knew that the enemies Murong Xue had arranged for her within the secret realm were probably only Chen Feng and his group, after all, the three Great Saints at their peak were already quite formidable.

This could be considered the strongest means that Murong Xue could employ at the moment, so there shouldn’t be any other peak Great Saints. Even if there were, she still had the necklace given by her hubby to rely on.

Meanwhile, Murong Xue was unaware that the people she had sent out had been completely annihilated. At this moment, feeling an opportunity to break through, she unhesitatingly began her advancement within the secret realm.

As for Su Qiaoran, after Chen Feng and the others had perished, she no longer wandered aimlessly in the secret realm but instead found a place to prepare for her breakthrough to the Great Saint level.

Having remained at the peak of Saint level for two and a half years, it was time for her to break through to Great Saint.

Time quickly passed, and in half a year, under the extra efforts of Wu Rulong and others, the base stations of the Li Dynasty had been gradually built in various locations.

Naturally, this commotion from the Wu Commerce Association soon reached Li Xukun and the others. Looking at the reports presented by his subordinates, Li Xukun slightly furrowed his brow, clearly not expecting Wu Rulong’s actions to have a particular purpose.

“Gentlemen, what do you believe Wu Rulong’s intentions are with this action?”

Li Xukun looked down at the ministers and slowly inquired.

During this time, the ministers of the Li Dynasty had observed Wu Commerce Association’s unusual maneuvers, so when they heard Li Xukun’s question, they all lowered their heads, hesitating and afraid to speak.

Seeing this, Li Xukun let out a cold snort.

“What’s this? Just a short while ago, you were all boasting about bringing the Wu Commerce Association under the banner of our Li Dynasty. Now, when I ask you, none of you dare to reply?”

Upon hearing Li Xukun’s words, they lowered their heads even further. Li Xukun had been enraged due to the commercial battle with the Wu Commerce Association, and they feared that if they stood up, he would annihilate them.

Observing that the ministers remained unfazed, Li Xukun sighed helplessly, his face full of deep fatigue as he waved his hand.

“Alright, you may leave for now.”

Soon, the court was dismissed, leaving only Li Xukun alone in the hall.

At this moment, Li Xukun’s eyes were filled with malice. Although he didn’t know what Wu Rulong was up to, he understood that if he let this go unchecked, it could bring a fatal blow to his Li Dynasty.

Thus, he had to stop Wu Rulong.

With this in mind, Li Xukun waved his hand, and in the next moment, five shadowy figures appeared before him, clearly the Shadow Agents.

“You five, go and destroy everything that the Wu Commerce Association has built during this time. Leave not a single one!”

“Understood, Your Majesty!”

The five peak Saint Kings among the Shadow Agents quickly departed, unaware that Li Xukun’s actions had already been anticipated by Wu Rulong.

So, as the five Shadow Agents prepared to strike secretly and destroy the constructions of the Wu Commerce Association, their only fate awaiting them would be death.
