A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 412

Chapter 412: Li Yuping’s Return, the Shock and Hidden Thoughts of Li Changsheng and the Others

“No matter what, Yuping is my disciple. If she dies, then I will die with her.” Li Changsheng made up his mind, his face full of solemn determination, then turned to head toward the Jingran Domain.

“Changsheng, what happened back then wasn’t your fault. You were just held back; otherwise, Qianyu and the others wouldn’t have–”

“Dean, there’s no need to say more. I already know everything about what happened back then. It’s just that I can’t forgive myself. I used to carry a regret about that time, but now, I won’t let myself be left with regrets anymore.” Li Changsheng said this with his back to Divine Emperor Tianfeng, then prepared to leave.

Just then, a voice called out.

“Master, so you’re here. I finally found you.”

Hearing the voice, Li Changsheng turned around in disbelief. Who else could it be but Li Yuping, the very disciple he was about to save?

Beside him, Divine Emperor Tianfeng’s face was full of disbelief as well. Clearly, no one expected Li Yuping to have survived and returned safely.“Yuping, you’ve returned? Weren’t you supposed to—?”

Li Changsheng said in disbelief.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuping shook her head and then recounted everything that had happened to Li Changsheng. After all, Li Changsheng was not only a teacher at Tianfeng Academy but also Li Yuping’s uncle.

Indeed, Li Changsheng was the younger brother of Li Yuping’s father, Li Changan. However, he had left the Li Family at a young age to come to Tianfeng Academy, where he became a teacher. Later, after his elder brother Li Changan’s downfall, he saw through the true nature of the Li Family and severed all ties with them.

Li Yuping was the only lingering thought left to him by his brother, so Li Changsheng would never allow anything to happen to her.

After hearing about Li Yuping’s ordeal and the destruction of both the Yi Clan and Emperor Jingrang, the faces of Li Changsheng and Divine Emperor Tianfeng were filled with disbelief. Shocked, Li Changsheng said,

“How is it possible? Such a powerful being actually intervened to slay Emperor Jingrang, and you barely even knew them.”

Divine Emperor Tianfeng was equally astonished, while Li Changsheng’s expression grew serious and grave as he seemed to have guessed something.

“Yuping, tell me honestly—did you agree to any conditions with that senior?”

“Yes, Master, I agreed to become that senior’s servant.”

Li Yuping did not hide this, nor did she consider it something worth concealing in her heart. After all, it was that senior who saved her and even helped wipe out the Yi Clan.

If the senior hadn’t already had a Dao Companion and their relationship wasn’t so affectionate, Li Yuping might have even offered herself to them.

Hearing this, Li Changsheng was immediately filled with rage.

“Taking advantage of someone at their weakest—that’s exactly what it is! Yuping, how could you agree to such a thing? Go find that senior. Let me talk to them. I’m willing to pay any price to free you from being their servant.”

Li Yuping was his niece; how could he possibly stand by and watch her become someone else’s servant?

Divine Emperor Tianfeng by his side quickly tried to calm him down, saying,

“Changsheng, calm down. That senior is at least a Divine Venerable Realm existence—someone we can’t afford to provoke.”

After all, even Emperor Jingrang at the pinnacle of the Divine Emperor Peak wasn’t an opponent they could recklessly challenge. It was even more so with this senior, who could immobilize Emperor Jingrang with a single word.At least a Divine Venerable, and possibly not even in the Early Divine Venerable stage.

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng calmed down a little but wasn’t completely at ease. Just as he was about to say something more to Li Yuping, she interrupted him.

“Master, I willingly became my owner’s servant. After all, it was the owner who saved me, and besides, I didn’t become the owner’s servant directly—I became the servant of my owner’s Dao Companion. Moreover, both the owner and Madam treat me very well. I’ve already broken through to the Earth God Realm.”

Only then did Li Changsheng notice that Li Yuping’s cultivation had advanced to the Earth God Realm. By his estimation, it should have taken her at least a hundred thousand years to break through to that level.

After a long silence, Li Changsheng sighed and said,

“You’ve grown up, and you should have your own decisions. Since this is your choice, I can only respect your decision.”

“Thank you, Master,” Li Yuping said gratefully, bowing slightly.

At this moment, Divine Emperor Tianfeng cleared his throat and earnestly looked toward Li Yuping saying,

“Yuping…”“You are also a part of the academy, so see if, when the opportunity arises, you can bring that senior over to visit Tianfeng Academy. Don’t worry, we at Tianfeng Academy will receive the senior with the highest honors.”

At these words, Li Changsheng, standing beside them, also spoke up.

“Yuping, see if you can bring them here. As your master, I’ll help watch out for you, at least to ensure you won’t be bullied.”

However, each of these two men harbored their own intentions. Divine Emperor Tianfeng was thinking of bringing Wu Hao over and then befriending him. If news of this spread, it would boost the reputation of Tianfeng Academy and perhaps bring about a new era of glory.

As for Li Changsheng, once he learned of Wu Hao’s existence, his warrior’s spirit stirred. He was eager to challenge Wu Hao in battle to test his own strength.

Faced with the requests from both the Dean and the Master, Li Yuping furrowed her brow, preparing to refuse.

“Madam is currently within the Divine Rank realm; it will take about three years before she can come out, so I’m afraid…”

“Three years, huh? I understand. Tianfeng Academy can wait those three years. Rest assured, after three years, we will welcome the senior with the highest honors.”

Before Li Yuping could finish speaking, Divine Emperor Tianfeng quickly interrupted to make his point clear.

Seeing this, Li Yuping sighed deeply before speaking up.”Dean, Master, I will pass the message to my Master. Whether he comes or not is his own decision,” Li Yuping said.

“Hehe, all you need to do is convey the message. After that, everything will be left to fate,” Divine Emperor Tianfeng replied with a triumphant look, hardly resembling an old man.

Meanwhile, Wu Hao, deep within the Xuanlei Domain, was completely unaware of the developments involving Su Qiaoran and Li Yuping. At this moment, he was still pondering how to quickly make the Heavenly Emperor Sect renowned throughout the entire Divine Realm.
