A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 403

Chapter 403: Joining Forces Again

“Wu Ji, are you sure you’re not joking?”

The Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor looked at the Limitless Immortal Emperor, trying to find the slightest hint in his expression. Unfortunately, this matter was true. The Limitless Immortal Emperor snorted coldly and said,

“What, you think I’d joke with you? Not long ago, someone under my command noticed that someone was investigating the truth behind what happened back then, so I sent an Early Immortal Emperor to make them disappear.”

“But that Immortal Emperor ultimately fell. Before he died, he sent word back to me, revealing that the ones who attacked him were Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor.”

Hearing this, the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor’s expression darkened.

Back then, to make it seem like Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor truly died, avoiding suspicion from the forces of the Righteous Path, the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor and Limitless Immortal Emperor had bribed Chuyang’s trusted aide to implant a parasite on him.

They then arranged for Chuyang to enter an Array to meet with the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor. Under the parasite’s influence, Chuyang’s mind would involuntarily crave battle until death.

This was the plan devised by the Limitless Sect and Blood Cloud Sect.

Yet, the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor never expected that Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor had actually survived and had even uncovered the truth behind what happened back then.It’s important to understand that the reason they moved against Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor was because the Two Great Factions—the Limitless Sect and Blood Cloud Sect—feared their exceptional talents. They worried that if these two grew stronger, it would threaten their dominance.

So when it became clear that Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor were still alive, and that their strength had recovered enough to slay an Early Immortal Emperor, the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor knew deep down that they had to be dealt with as soon as possible, even if he had to personally take action.

“Speak,” said the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor, looking at Limitless Immortal Emperor with a grave expression. “You came to me because you want us to take down Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor together, right?”

Limitless Immortal Emperor nodded.

“That’s right. Both of them have terrifying talent. If I go alone, I’m not confident I can defeat them. Only if you and I join forces can we take them down. Though their talent is fearsome, breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle is still probably out of reach for now. We must eliminate them quickly so we can have no worries going forward.”

“Alright, let’s cooperate—but we can’t alert them prematurely. Don’t move against Chuyang or the Demon Emperor unless both of them are present.”

After considering this, the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor said as much.

Limitless Immortal Emperor agreed with a nod. Then, seeming to recall something, he spoke again.“During this period, I will have the Limitless Sect under my command investigate the locations of the True Immortal Association and the Devouring Demon Sect. Considering their nature, even if they survived, they likely wouldn’t abandon their original followers. If we can capture some of their former trusted aides, it could have a tremendous impact on our battle strategy.”

“Hm, understood. I will also have the Blood Cloud Sect conduct their own investigation.”

After the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor said this, he watched as the Limitless Immortal Emperor left the Blood Cloud Sect.

Once the Limitless Immortal Emperor was gone, the Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor stood and gazed toward the Central Region, his expression incredibly grave as he murmured, “Immortal Emperor Chuyang, Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor… If you were dead, then you should have stayed dead. Now that you’ve come back, don’t expect to live this time.”

Meanwhile, on Penglai Immortal Island, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu were still unaware that the Limitless Immortal Emperor and Blood Cloud Immortal Emperor had already set their sights on them and were preparing to take action personally.

Thanks to the full investigation by the Wu Commerce Association, intelligence about the Limitless Sect soon reached Wu Qiankun’s hands.

As he reviewed the information about the Limitless Sect, Wu Qiankun fell into deep thought. It was clear he couldn’t understand why Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu would be entangled with the Limitless Sect since, according to the intelligence he gathered, the Limitless Sect had acted against them with almost no reason.

“Hmph, I won’t think about it anymore. Since the Limitless Sect dared to make a move against Xianni and Mowu today, then this Limitless Sect no longer deserves to exist,” said Wu Qiankun.

With that, he planned to send Wu Qilong to wipe out the Limitless Sect. At this point, Wu Qilong had already broken through to Divine Rank and was even faster than the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor, currently pushing toward the Intermediate Divine Rank stage.

For the sake of Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu, Wu Qiankun planned to have Wu Qilong take action.

Just then, good news reached Wu Qiankun: Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu had awakened.

Upon hearing this, Wu Qiankun immediately set aside his affairs. When he arrived at Wu Qinlong’s dojo, he saw a large group of Wu family members gathered around the beds of Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu.

Everyone present knew that Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu had been brutally wounded by outsiders, so they came to check on their condition. When Wu Qiankun arrived and saw this scene, he couldn’t help but scold them angrily:

“Why are you all just standing around? Get back to your training. If you’re not strong enough, you’ll just keep getting bullied.”

The gathered Wu family disciples then dispersed with a clamor.

Wu Qiankun approached the beds of Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu and saw Wu Xuanyuan and the others standing closely by. Though their complexions were a bit pale, their auras showed they were no longer in serious danger.

“Xianni, Mowu, you’re awake,” Wu Qiankun said.

Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu hurriedly had to gather their strength to respond.

“Uncle.”

“Hmm, you don’t need to worry about the Limitless Sect anymore. They dared to lay a hand on someone from the Wu Family. The Limitless Sect no longer has any reason to exist. I’m already planning to send Qilong to pay them a visit,” Wu Qiankun said angrily. In his mind, the Limitless Sect could be wiped out; even if the Five Great Holy Lands pleaded for mercy, it wouldn’t save them.

At this moment, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu hesitated for a moment. After exchanging a glance, they quickly understood each other’s thoughts. The next second, both of them turned to Wu Qiankun and spoke in unwavering tones,

“Uncle, we hope the family won’t intervene in this matter. We want to take revenge ourselves.”

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned. Their eyes were full of surprise as they looked at Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu.

Qin Shiyu immediately said,

“You two kids, why do you have to take such risks? It’s just the Limitless Sect. Leave it to the family to handle. There’s no need for you to endanger yourselves.”

“That’s right. Don’t worry. The family can easily deal with a mere Limitless Sect,” Wu Qitian also spoke up, trying to persuade them. The others all looked on in confusion.

But only Wu Qiankun, Wu Xuanyuan, and Wu Qinlong wore puzzled expressions as they looked at Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu and asked,

“So, why do you want to take revenge yourselves?”

The next second, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu spoke in unison, leaving Wu Qiankun and the others momentarily speechless.
