A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 26

“This is what His Majesty ordered us to destroy? It looks like it can’t withstand a single blow.”

Looking at the massive base station towering ten thousand meters high, the Shadow Agent displayed a look of disdain. After all, for a peak Saint King, not to mention ten thousand meters, even gigantic structures that reached billions of meters would be considered fragile and could be destroyed in an instant.

With this in mind, the Shadow Agent prepared to strike and destroy the base station with a thunderous attack.

However, when his attack landed on the base station, the anticipated scene of the base station being utterly destroyed by his strike did not appear. Instead, a faint bluish light emerged on the surface of the base station.

Upon seeing this light, the Shadow Agent thought to himself that something was wrong, and before he could react, the formation attached to the base station absorbed his attack and then rebounded with ten times the power, killing him instantly.

The remaining four Shadow Agents fared no better; after launching their attacks on the base station, they were all similarly struck down by the formation within the base station, which absorbed and then rebounded their attacks with tenfold strength.

At the moment the formation was activated, Wu Rulong, who was inside the Wu Commerce Association, gave a sneer.

“I didn’t expect Li Xukun to choose such a shameless method, but I didn’t expect my base station to have a formation. Let alone a Saint King, even a Supreme wouldn’t be able to break through it; only a Quasi-Emperor might have the chance to breach it.”

With this thought, Wu Rulong was surprisingly impressed. He hadn’t anticipated how terrifying the items given by his father would be, especially since they contained formations.

Indeed, the formation set up in the base station was the portable formation created by Wu Hao, which Wu Rulong received upon Wu Hao’s return. Although its coverage area was not large, it was more than sufficient to protect a small base station.

According to Wu Hao’s plan, he intended to construct ten base stations throughout the Southern Region. Just ten base stations would be enough to provide 360-degree signal coverage in every area of the Southern Region.

After all, many materials found in the Xuantian Realm were much more advanced than those on Earth in the previous life, making extensive signal coverage quite reasonable.

Currently, about five base stations had already been constructed, and the software was nearly developed as well, so the next step would be preparing to release mobile phones.

With this in mind, Wu Rulong ordered his subordinates that after seven days, they would hold a new product launch conference across the Southern Region.

Presently, the Wu Commerce Association was renowned not just within the Li Dynasty but also throughout the entire Southern Region. Even though it was merely a conflict between the Wu Commerce Association and the Li Dynasty, it had made other forces of similar scale in the Southern Region aware of the Wu Commerce Association’s strength.

Thus, after the Wu Commerce Association announced that they would hold a new product launch conference in seven days, many factions expressed their intent to attend.

Almost simultaneously, at the moment the Shadow Agents met their demise, Li Xukun realized what had happened, his expression darkening to the extreme. Though he knew it was his fault for ordering his subordinates to attack the Wu Commerce Association’s base station, the knowledge that all of his Shadow Agents had been killed sparked an uncontrollable rage within him.

“Sigh, I wonder if that Shadow Agent sent to find the Nameless Ranger has found anything yet?”

At this moment, Li Xukun recalled that he still had a Shadow Agent searching for the Nameless Ranger, but for some reason, the Nameless Ranger hadn’t appeared lately, and his Shadow Agent was nowhere to be found.

What Li Xukun didn’t know was that his Shadow Agent had already tracked the Nameless Ranger to the Central Region.

Soon, Li Xukun also received news about the Wu Commerce Association holding a new product launch conference in seven days, causing his expression to suddenly become grave. After all, he had conducted so much investigation yet failed to uncover what the Wu Commerce Association was truly up to. Now he was finally going to find out, so how could he not be excited?

Of course, Wu Rulong was not petty, so the invitation to the new product launch conference had also been sent to the Li Dynasty.

“Wu Rulong, I’m curious to see what you’re going to unveil in seven days.”

On the other side, among the Three Great Dynasties, the rulers of the Three Great Dynasties showed some interest upon receiving the invitation. Although the Wu Commerce Association had established itself within their domains, they hadn’t targeted the allied forces under their control, so the Three Great Dynasties hadn’t paid much attention.

However, now that they had received an invitation to the new product launch, their interest was piqued, wanting to know who could cause such a headache for Li Xukun.

“Oh, interesting, who sent you to find me?”

Meanwhile, Wu Hao was out strolling with Wu Hu when suddenly the surroundings shifted. In just a breath, Wu Hao was taken away.

Naturally, Wu Hao could sense the realm of the person who acted. It was just a peak Saint King, and as long as he didn’t want to be taken away, the other party would absolutely not succeed.

Wu Hao was just curious, which was why he allowed himself to be taken.

The person who took Wu Hao away was the Shadow Agent, who had been tracking him for some time. Upon seeing Wu Hao, a slight joy appeared on the Agent’s face because he had been searching for Wu Hao for so long and finally found him, how could he not be happy?

The reason the Shadow Agent was certain that Wu Hao was the legendary Nameless Ranger was that everyone saved by the Nameless Ranger said that a Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox rested on his shoulder. Since Wu Hu was perched on Wu Hao’s shoulder, he was recognized by the Agent.

“Esteemed guest, I am from the Li Dynasty. Our Emperor wishes to recruit you, and we hope you can join us in the Li Dynasty. We can guarantee that you will be trained to reach the Supreme level.”

The Shadow Agent spoke without hesitation. However, in Wu Hao’s eyes, it all seemed like empty promises. If he agreed to follow the Agent back to the Li Dynasty, there were countless ways for them to make use of him.

Moreover, what was the Li Dynasty? They had dared to act against his son before, so in Wu Hao’s mind, the Li Dynasty was already a fallen Dynasty; it mainly depended on whether his son or he himself would be the one to destroy it.

Once his wife became the Holy Maiden and returned with him, if his son hadn’t yet managed to obliterate the Li Dynasty, he could always step in to finish the job.

Putting that aside, the current priority was to eliminate the Shadow Agent in front of him.

“Wait a moment, I have something to say.”

Wu Hao interrupted the Shadow Agent in front of him.

The Shadow Agent, unfazed by Wu Hao’s attitude, replied politely, “What would you like to say?”

Wu Hao leaned in closer to the Shadow Agent’s ear and then spoke, “Do you know that I have a grudge against the Li Dynasty?”

Upon hearing Wu Hao’s words, the Shadow Agent’s pupils abruptly narrowed, and before he could comprehend what was happening, he had already been killed with a single slap from Wu Hao.

“What? My other Shadow Agent is gone too?”

After realizing that the Shadow Agent in the Central Region had also vanished, Li Xukun’s heart sank completely. Despite being a Supreme-level powerhouse, even he had a limited number of peak Saint King Shadow Agents—only ten in total.

To his shock, he had lost seven of them in less than ten years, which made Li Xukun feel as if he might vomit blood from anger.

However, there was nothing he could do; after all, he had provoked someone he couldn’t afford to offend, so he had to swallow his frustration, whether he liked it or not.

Before long, seven days passed, and the Wu Commerce Association’s new product launch conference was held as scheduled.
