A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 430

Chapter 430: Gaining a Little Admirer!

At this moment, both Wu Hao and Qin Shaolong wore expressions of utmost seriousness. Their attacks collided and locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand for a while.

But only Wu Hao knew in his heart that Qin Shaolong was no match for him; losing was just a matter of time.

Soon, as time passed, the phantom of the Divine Dragon began to show signs of defeat. Before long, it was cleaved in two by Wu Hao’s sword energy, releasing a mournful wail before dissipating completely.

The residual force of the Heavenly Emperor Slash did not weaken even after slaying the Divine Dragon; it continued surging toward Qin Shaolong. Heaven’s Punishment Venerable and the others not far away watched in suspense, their hearts clenched with worry, fearing Qin Shaolong might truly die at Wu Hao’s hands.

Fortunately, Wu Hao had his own plan. When the sword energy came within about a punch’s distance of Qin Shaolong, it dispersed.

Qin Shaolong’s aura also weakened accordingly, dropping from the Late Stage God Venerable back to the Intermediate Stage. He forced a bitter smile at Wu Hao and said,

“Senior, I lost.”

“Mm,” Wu Hao nodded. Then, with a shift of his mind, he directly transported them out of the Inner World.After leaving, Wu Hao intended to depart immediately; after all, by this point, Lin Qianyan should be waking up soon.

But just as Wu Hao was about to leave, Qin Shaolong’s expression grew conflicted. Yet after a moment, he bit his lip and stepped forward to earnestly plead with Wu Hao.

“Senior, I want to stay by your side to learn from you.”

“Huh?”

Wu Hao couldn’t hide his surprise upon hearing this. Clearly, he hadn’t expected Qin Shaolong to want to learn from him. After all, from Wu Hao’s perspective, Qin Shaolong was already a powerful Intermediate Stage God Venerable. He could go anywhere in the Divine Realm he wished.

There was absolutely no need for him to stick around Wu Hao to learn. Put nicely, it was learning; put bluntly, it wasn’t much different from becoming a subordinate.

Nearby, Cheng Zishen and Heaven’s Punishment Venerable exchanged shocked glances. It was clear they had never imagined Qin Shaolong would do something like this.

But thinking about it carefully, it wasn’t so strange after all—Qin Shaolong valued strength above all else. In a world ruled by the strong, it wasn’t surprising that he wanted to become Wu Hao’s subordinate in order to grow stronger.

“Senior, I’m serious. I want to stay by your side to learn. During this time, you can command me however you want. As long as it’s not something evil or against the heavens, I’ll do anything you ask.”

Qin Shaolong repeated with earnest determination.Hearing this, Wu Hao only then began to seriously consider the feasibility of the matter, and eventually found that it was indeed possible.

If he himself wasn’t in the Heavenly Emperor Sect at that time, he could have Qin Shaolong teach his disciples. Also, having a subordinate to back him up would certainly ease his worries.

Speaking of subordinates, Wu Hao suddenly thought of Wu Mengdie and the others.

“I wonder how they are doing now. But with their cultivation, they’ve probably already taken control of most of the power within the Eight Voids,” Wu Hao thought to himself. Then he refocused his attention and looked at Qin Shaolong with a serious expression.

“You want to stay by my side to learn. I agree to that. But I do not tolerate betrayal. If you ever betray me in the future, I will personally deal with you. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Senior!” Qin Shaolong nodded promptly and responded. Deep down, he had a premonition that his chance to become a God Emperor lay with Wu Hao, and only by staying by Wu Hao’s side could he achieve that.

Seeing Qin Shaolong agree, Wu Hao slowly said, “If that’s the case, do you have anything that still needs resolving? If not, then come with me.”Qin Shaolong thought for a moment, then turned to Cheng Zishen and Heaven’s Punishment Venerable, cupping his fists in thanks.

“Thank you both for your hospitality during this time. If fate allows, we will meet again.”

“Yes, we will meet again,” Cheng Zishen smiled and said. He was naturally happy for his friend Qin Shaolong to have obtained such an opportunity.

Heaven’s Punishment Venerable waved his hand and then turned to leave.

After finishing all this, Qin Shaolong turned to Wu Hao and said, “Senior, there’s nothing else.”

“Good, then let’s go!”

As Wu Hao’s words fell, Qin Shaolong and Wu Hao’s figures vanished from the spot. Watching this scene, Cheng Zishen couldn’t help but sigh.

Qin Shaolong was not originally from the Divine Treasures Pavilion; it was by chance that he had come here and settled beneath the Pavilion, becoming a friend of Cheng Zishen.Having already spent a hundred million years in the Divine Treasures Pavilion, Cheng Zishen naturally felt a bit reluctant to leave now, but there are no banquets in this world that never end. As long as one is still alive, there will always be a day to meet again.

Meanwhile, in the blink of an eye, Wu Hao brought Qin Shaolong back to the Heavenly Emperor Sect.

Feeling the surroundings, Qin Shaolong asked with some surprise, “Senior? Is this a Lower Realm?”

“That’s right. I have a sect in the Lower Realm. The current plan is to grow this sect until it becomes known throughout the entire Divine Realm.”

Wu Hao nodded and spoke directly.

Hearing this, Qin Shaolong was a bit puzzled and couldn’t help but ask, “With your strength, Senior, wouldn’t just speaking a word to establish a faction quickly make everyone in the Divine Realm aware? Why go through so much trouble?”

“You don’t know this yet. What I want is not that simple. What I seek is the true strength of the sect itself. If it relied solely on my power, if only I were strong, there would be no need to create this so-called sect.”

“I want that in the future, when people in the Divine Realm hear the name Heavenly Emperor Sect, what they think of isn’t me, but the sect’s true strength.”

Wu Hao waved his hand and spoke in a serious tone.

Although Qin Shaolong wasn’t completely clear on the matter, he still nodded to show he understood.

Soon after, led by Wu Hao, Qin Shaolong arrived inside the Heavenly Emperor Sect.

Upon entering, Qin Shaolong’s eyes immediately fell on Lin Qianyan, who was cultivating in the plaza of the sect. Just one glance made Qin Shaolong involuntarily draw in a sharp breath.

“The aura on her— is that the Nether Dao Physique? Or the Nether Dao Physique before activation?”

“Yes. I went to the Divine Treasures Pavilion specifically to gather the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can activate the Nether Dao Physique.”

Wu Hao wasn’t surprised that Qin Shaolong could recognize this; despite the Nether Dao Physique’s power, someone at Qin Shaolong’s Divine Venerable Realm could easily tell whether it was activated or not just by a look.

Hearing this, Qin Shaolong looked at Lin Qianyan, who was lost in her cultivation, with obvious envy and said, “To become a senior’s disciple like her is truly the luck of that girl.”As Qin Shaolong finished speaking, Lin Qianyan’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and in the next moment, she woke up.
