A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 292

Chapter 292: A Grand, Extravagant Celebration

“Who? Tiankun or Qi Tian? You’ve really come through—silently bringing home a daughter-in-law without saying a word,” Wu Rulong remarked as he looked over at Wu Tiankun and Wu Qitian. Quickly, by reading the different expressions on their faces, he deduced it must be Wu Tiankun.

At that moment, Wu Tiankun stood still, his face filled with a complex mix of emotions, while beside him, Wu Qitian looked at Wu Tiankun with disbelief, wearing an expression like a betrayed wife.

“No way, Sixth Brother, we agreed to stay single for life. You go and settle down first—what about me? I need some remedy!”

Of course, in the current situation, Wu Qitian wouldn’t dare say something like that out loud because it would likely get him beaten.

“Father, this was unexpected. I never thought something like this would happen,” Wu Tiankun stepped forward, lowering his head as he spoke slowly.

He wasn’t foolish. Just by briefly recalling that day—after he saved Lu Mengyuan, he inhaled a cloud of powder she released. After using all his strength to slay everyone else, he finally lost consciousness completely.

It was likely that the powder was some kind of intoxicating venom. Because of that, Lu Mengyuan must have sacrificed her own innocence to save him, which is how Wu Daotian came to be.

Hearing Wu Tiankun’s explanation, Wu Rulong sighed deeply. After a long pause, he slowly said, “In that case, you mustn’t let her down. Bring her into the family.”

“Father, Grandfather has already taken me to meet her side, and they have agreed. In half a month, Grandfather will bring me to the Time and Space Holy Land to formally welcome her,” Wu Tiankun said, then glanced at Wu Hao beside him.

Upon hearing this, Wu Rulong couldn’t help but look to Wu Hao and asked, “Father, have you settled this?”

“Mm, it’s been taken care of. The bride price has already been sent. You just need to spread the news,” Wu Hao nodded in response.

“Spread the word?”

Wu Rulong and the others all cast curious looks.

Hearing this, Wu Hao finally explained, “Our Wu Family has now reached a crucial stage of development. It’s time to announce our presence to the entire Upper Realm. Tiankun marrying Lu Mengyuan from the Time and Space Holy Land is clearly a perfect opportunity. We can use this chance to let the whole Upper Realm know about the Wu Family.”

After hearing Wu Hao’s words, Wu Rulong and the others found their breathing quicken involuntarily, their hearts stirring with excitement.

Currently, the Wu Commerce Association, under Wu Qilong’s leadership, has become so powerful that no forces in the Upper Realm dare to oppose it. As a result, it has grown into one of the top premier associations across the Upper Realm.

However, it still hasn’t become a dominant force ruling over the Upper Realm. If they take advantage of this opportunity to reveal the Wu Family’s presence, it would bring immeasurable benefits to the Wu Commerce Association’s development.

“So, Father, are you planning to come out of hiding?” Wu Rulong asked Wu Hao, his tone carrying a hint of inquiry.

But Wu Hao shook his head and said, “No. We don’t have much time left. To grow stronger quickly, we have to take some unconventional measures.”

As he spoke, Wu Hao looked beyond the Upper Realm. For some reason, a vague sense of unease lingered within him.

Hearing this, Wu Rulong couldn’t help but feel a pang of disappointment but said nothing. As Wu Hao’s son, Wu Rulong naturally hoped that his father’s reputation would spread throughout the Upper Realm. That way, when he himself went out, he would also have a proud legacy to uphold.

“Alright, get this arranged as soon as possible. Send invitations to all forces in the Upper Realm that have Immortal Emperor-level backing,” Wu Hao waved his hand, giving his orders.

Soon, forces throughout the Upper Realm with Immortal Emperor-level strength received invitations from the Wu Family, and all were shaken deeply.

Firstly, because they had never heard of the Wu Family before—an unknown power suddenly marrying the daughter of Lu Ren, the Holy Lord of the Time and Space Holy Land, was astonishing.

Secondly, because of Penglai Immortal Island—no one in the Upper Realm had ever heard of it. One Immortal Sovereign had heard its name, tried to analyze it, and immediately exploded, sparking a huge sensation throughout the Upper Realm.

Meanwhile, within the Ancient Desolation Holy Land, Li Pangtian’s expression turned extremely solemn after receiving the news, and Elder Chen Wushuang appeared before him.

“Holy Lord, what about this matter?”

“I will lead all the Immortal Emperor-level Elders in the entire Holy Land to bring congratulatory gifts and attend.”

Li Pangtian waved his hand casually, lightly settling the matter with a simple decision.

Having witnessed Wu Hao’s strength, and given Wu Hao’s connection to his own Holy Son, Li Pangtian naturally regarded this matter with utmost importance. Moreover, he could see that the Wu Family intended to use this event as a stepping stone to emerge into the spotlight, so it was only natural for him to support them.

Jun Xiaoyao shared the same thinking. As the Ancestor of the Holy Son, Jun Xiaoyao naturally had to attend and show his support. Without hesitation, he ordered all the Immortal Emperor Elders of the Five Elements Holy Land to go and offer their congratulations, half a month in advance.

Within the Anti-God Holy Land, after receiving the news, Wu Dong’s eyes brightened as he came before Holy Lord Zhang Jie.

At that moment, Zhang Jie’s expression was extremely complex. After all, he knew about his own son, Zhang Shaochu’s affection for Lu Mengyuan. But now, he never expected to be beaten to it, which naturally left him deeply frustrated.

If the Time and Space Holy Land could marry into his own Anti-God Holy Land, strengthening their ties through close family bonds, that would be an enormous benefit for the Anti-God Holy Land’s development.

However, he also knew that Jun Xiaoyao was extremely particular in his choices, and any force that won his approval had to be remarkably powerful.

Just as he heard that Wu Dong requested a meeting, Zhang Jie waved his hand and brought Wu Dong before him.

“What do you need?”

Upon seeing Wu Dong, Zhang Jie’s gloomy mood immediately lifted. After all, Wu Dong was the prodigy capable of triggering the Anti-God Bell to toll eight times, and he carried the hope of the Anti-God Holy Land’s rise on his shoulders.

Seeing Zhang Jie, Wu Dong took a deep breath, then clasped his fists and bowed respectfully.

“Holy Lord, please bring me along to attend the banquet of the Wu Family and the Time and Space Holy Land.”

Hearing Wu Dong’s words, Zhang Jie furrowed his brow. In fact, he had planned to go himself. Although the marriage between his son and Lu Mengyuan had fallen through, it didn’t prevent him from maintaining good relations with the Time and Space Holy Land.

Moreover, Zhang Jie was curious to see just how strong a force could convince Lu Ren to willingly marry off his daughter.

But now, hearing Wu Dong’s request, Zhang Jie’s curiosity grew. He looked at Wu Dong with interest, wondering why Wu Dong wanted to attend the grand celebration of the Time and Space Holy Land and the Wu Family.
