A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 288

Chapter 288: The Child of Destiny Is Born Again—A Transcender?

At the same time, on Penglai Immortal Island, as time passed, the population within the Wu Family had inevitably grown to over a thousand.

As the third-generation descendants of the Wu Family, Wu Tiankun and Wu Qitian were naturally being pressured by their father, Wu Rulong, to get married.

So the two of them got together and complained about it.

“Hey, little brother, what do you think Dad is so persistent about us settling down and starting our own families for?” Wu Tiankun sighed deeply, his tone tinged with a touch of melancholy. He actually found being single quite nice—unlike their father, who had to be managed all day long by their mother, Xu Qingxue, and yet he seemed to enjoy it. This was something that single guys like Wu Tiankun and Wu Qitian just couldn’t understand.

In fact, the current situation felt pretty good to him: with cultivation at the Peak True Immortal level, he could go anywhere in the Upper Realm. Plus, the Wu Commerce Association had already gained a strong reputation there, with many factions giving it some respect.

Moreover, their father planned to open other Wu Commerce Association headquarters in the four other realms, which would require them to go manage those branches. That would leave even less time for settling down and starting families.

“Who knows? For now, just stall. The longer we wait, the more Dad will probably stop pushing us. Given the current state of the Wu Family, they don’t exactly lack successors with the two of us around,” Wu Qitian said slowly, shaking his head. He had it a bit better than Wu Tiankun since he was younger. If their father pressured him to marry, he could always lean on their sixth brother to back him up.

Whenever Dad said anything, he would just say, “Sixth brother isn’t in a hurry, so I’m not either.”

Right now, Wu Qitian’s main goal was to keep six brother’s attention—he absolutely couldn’t let six brother settle down. To that end, Wu Qitian even went so far as to ruin six brother’s reputation with women, spreading rumors that six brother wasn’t interested in women, which discouraged many of the fairy ladies who had taken a liking to him.

“Sixth brother, don’t blame me. I’m doing this for your own good. After all, women outside are too complicated; you wouldn’t be able to handle it,” Wu Qitian glanced at Wu Tiankun, his eyes carrying a hint of guilt.

Just then, as if sensing something, Wu Tiankun’s expression suddenly changed. He turned sharply to look toward the direction of the Western Region.

“What is it?” Wu Qitian asked, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

He looked where Wu Tiankun was gazing but saw nothing.

Wu Tiankun, however, spoke gravely: “I feel like something from that direction is calling me. I have to go see for myself!”

Without waiting for Wu Qitian to react, Wu Tiankun rose into the air without hesitation and sped off toward the Western Region.

Meanwhile, on Penglai Immortal Island, Wu Hao also awakened from his secluded cultivation, his eyes filled with intense excitement.

“We have another new Child of Destiny in the Wu Family. Wait—how come he wasn’t born within the Wu Family? Damn it! Why is he in the Western Region?”

Wu Hao’s expression shifted repeatedly within just a second, yet in the end, he said nothing. With his cultivation at the True God Peak level, he naturally could sense that the bloodline was indeed from their Wu Family. It was just unclear why the birth hadn’t taken place within the family itself.

With this thought, Wu Hao sprang up in one step and immediately headed toward the Western Region, bringing Wu Tiankun along on the way.

At the same time, in the Western Region, within the Time and Space Holy Land—

An overwhelmingly powerful anomaly suddenly appeared in a dojo beside Holy Lord Peak, drawing the attention of all the disciples of the Holy Land.

“That direction—could it be Senior Sister Lu’s dojo? Such a terrifying aura—could Senior Sister Lu have broken through to Golden Immortal?”

“But I’ve never seen any True Immortal peak breakthrough to Golden Immortal cause an anomaly like this.”

“Aren’t you going to let Senior Sister Lu be the first? After all, she reached the True Immortal peak in just a thousand years. Having some anomaly when breaking through to Golden Immortal is pretty normal.”

“You do have a point.”

Countless disciples from the Time and Space Holy Land all turned their gaze to the dojo belonging to their Senior Sister Lu, eyes full of admiration. After all, this senior sister had rung the Time Bell eight times and was hailed as a potential candidate to become the next Holy Lord.

On the other side, atop Holy Lord Peak, Lu Ren watched the scene with a deeply complex expression, lost in thought. After a long moment, he sighed and intervened to suppress the anomaly.

There was no way he didn’t know what this was. But precisely because he knew, his expression was extremely displeasing. He had never imagined that the precious daughter he held in the palm of his hand would do something like get pregnant before marriage.

With his sharp eyes, Lu Ren could clearly see that this anomaly was the type that appeared when a terrifying constitution was born. His daughter’s dojo contained only her—besides her, no one else could have caused this anomaly.

“Damn it. I don’t even know which bastard polluted my daughter. When I find him, I swear I’ll kill him!”

For the daughter-adoring Lu Ren, his daughter was an untouchable reverse scale; now, he never imagined anyone would dare mess with her under his nose and get her pregnant. How could Lu Ren possibly not be furious?

“Judging by the timing, it was probably conceived in the Ten Thousand Immortals Secret Realm. Send someone to investigate who entered the Secret Realm about a year ago.”

With a sweeping gesture of his hand, Lu Ren immediately saw several figures materialize slowly from the void—these were all Shadow Guards personally trained by him, most with cultivation at the Immortal Sovereign level. At a glance, there were no fewer than three hundred of them.

Once the Shadow Guards had all left, Lu Ren descended in a single step and arrived at his daughter’s dojo. There, he saw Lu Mengyuan with her trademark blue hair holding a small baby in her arms, her expression deeply complicated, clearly lost in thought.

The baby in her arms looked utterly shocked.

“What’s going on? Did I time travel?”

Wu Zhengyu’s face was full of astonishment as he looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, unable to help but think this to himself.

He vaguely remembered watching anime before everything went black in front of him. When he woke up again, he saw a woman in front of him who looked like a fairy—no, she was like a goddess—gazing down at him.

Startled, Wu Zhengyu tried to reach out to push away the woman in front of him. But when he stretched out his hand, he found it had turned into a chubby little baby’s hand. It was then he realized he had actually become an infant.

Opening his mouth to say something, he found he could only make cooing and babbling sounds.

The sound from the little baby in front of her caught Lu Mengyuan’s attention too. Looking at the perfectly carved baby in her arms, the frustration in her heart vanished without a trace, and she couldn’t help but smile softly.

In response, Wu Zhengyu froze in place, stunned by his mother’s smile. If fairies really existed in the human world, this scene would surely be worthy of them.
