A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 459

Chapter 459 Taking Action? Li Tianxie Arrives

Meanwhile, inside the Wu Commerce Association.

Wu Rulong was cultivating when he suddenly sensed something, his brows furrowing slightly.

The next moment, he appeared directly outside the Wu Commerce Association. Looking up at the sky with a fighting spirit in his expression, above the association, a powerful figure at the Earth God Peak Realm had appeared.

As the newcomer showed up, Zheng Zidan and Mo Qianyun also appeared beside Wu Rulong. They looked at him solemnly and said,

“President, the visitor means no good. The two of us will escort you to safety.”

“No need. It’s just a mere Earth God. Leave it to me to handle.”

Wu Rulong stood firm in front of Zheng Zidan and Mo Qianyun, facing the Earth God Realm powerhouse above with no trace of fear—instead, his face was filled with fierce battle intent.

Seeing this, Zheng Zidan and Mo Qianyun were both very curious about where their president’s confidence came from. However, since they hadn’t seen him make a single mistake since meeting him, perhaps their president truly had a way to deal with an Earth God Realm expert?With this in mind, Mo Qianyun and Zheng Zidan neither stopped President Wu nor stood idly by. Instead, they stood beside Wu Rulong, carefully observing the situation. If anything went wrong, they were ready to take the president and flee immediately.

Soon, Wu Rulong approached the Earth God expert calmly and said with a composed expression,

“Did the Ten Thousand Merchants Association send you?”

“It’s good that you know. Now, either the Wu Commerce Association disbands, or it merges into our Ten Thousand Merchants Association. You have only these two choices,” the Earth God expert said without giving Wu Rulong any respect at all.

“Oh? And what if I refuse?” Wu Rulong replied.

“Refuse? Then you’ll walk the same path as the Wu Commerce Association,” the Earth God expert said, summoning a long spear and preparing to strike.

Seeing this, Zheng Zidan and Mo Qianyun’s faces instantly turned anxious. They were about to pull the president away immediately.

Yet, unexpectedly, Wu Rulong suddenly burst out laughing.

“Interesting. Since that’s the case, let me see what kind of strength you really have!” Wu Rulong said, preparing to summon the Chaos Bell that Wu Hao had left behind for him. But just then, a voice came from not far away, tinged with a hint of amusement.

“Oh, so you’re planning to make a move on my grandfather?”

At the sound of that voice, everyone present immediately felt as if a great enemy had arrived—especially the Earth God peak expert. Following the voice, he saw a young man who had appeared nearby at some unknown moment.

The expression on the young man’s face was somewhat mischievous, making people involuntarily glance his way a few times.

Wu Rulong was somewhat surprised when he heard the voice, but upon seeing its owner, he immediately realized he probably wouldn’t have to lift a finger.

“Who are you?” The Earth God expert of the Ten Thousand Merchants Association looked gravely at the suddenly appearing figure. He was stunned—he hadn’t sensed the newcomer’s presence at all, and only became aware of him after hearing him speak.

In other words, just moments ago, this person might have had a chance to take his life?

This realization shook him deeply. At the same time, he swore at the three major merchant associations in his heart, thinking, “You call this no strength at all?”

“Who am I? Didn’t I just say? If you’re planning to make a move on my grandfather, then let’s get started.”

The one who spoke was Li Tianxie, who had happened to pass by.

The moment Li Tianxie spoke, the opponent’s hair stood on end, and almost instinctively, he raised the Long Spear in front of him to block. Yet, he was still struck by Li Tianxie’s sword, then was sent flying backwards.

Seeing that his opponent had actually blocked one of his sword strikes, Li Tianxie looked a bit surprised.

“Interesting. You actually managed to block one of my sword strikes. In that case, let me try again.”

Earlier, Li Tianxie hadn’t really gone all out, but since the other party could block his blow, it meant they had some real strength. So from now on, Li Tianxie wasn’t going to hold back.

The other person, sent flying by Li Tianxie’s sword, was utterly shocked inside. If not for his quick reflexes, that first strike might have already sent him on his way. And now Li Tianxie said he hadn’t even used his full power yet?

With no time to think further, fleeing seemed the best option.

But running away was pointless in front of Li Tianxie. Only after the opponent had fled about three heartbeats did Li Tianxie lower his sword. A dazzling gleam shimmered along the blade, and then, a pulse of sword energy shot off toward the distance.

Before long, he caught up to the opponent and killed him with a single sword strike.

On the other side, Zheng Zidan and Mo Qianyun were both stunned when they saw this. To slay an Earth God peak-level expert with one sword—what level had their president’s grandson reached?

After the Earth God was slain, Li Tianxie sheathed his long sword and then came over to greet Wu Rulong.

“Grandpa.”

“Hey, why did you jump in? I was about to make a move myself.”

Wu Rulong said with a hint of complaint. Hearing this, Li Tianxie was momentarily taken aback but soon nodded.

“I understand, Grandpa. Next time, I’ll wait for your order before acting.”

Although Wu Rulong’s cultivation was only at the Early True God stage, Li Tianxie knew that his grandfather was the Ancestor’s only son and probably carried treasures and skills that even surpassed his own. Killing a peak Earth God wouldn’t be a challenge.

After exchanging some casual words, Wu Rulong looked at Li Tianxie with curiosity and asked in puzzlement,

“Why are you still in the Natural Domain?”

“I’ll leave after some time, once I break through to the God King level,” Li Tianxie said truthfully. Inside the Anti-God Bell, he possessed a portion of its Origin Power, which was why he had been able to reach the Heavenly God Peak so quickly.

Hearing this, Wu Rulong nodded without finding it strange. After all, he had heard that Tianxie’s father had personally been present at his birth, and within the Wu Family, a saying had emerged: If the Ancestor appears at a child’s birth, it means the child has a promising future with limitless potential.

Nearby, Mo Qianyun and Zheng Zidan spoke with some reverence, asking, “President, who is this?”

“Oh, this is my grandson,” Wu Rulong replied.

Upon hearing Wu Rulong’s words, both Mo Qianyun and Zheng Zidan were shocked inwardly. They wondered just what kind of force their president came from.

Li Tianxie didn’t quite feel comfortable in such a setting. After Wu Rulong spoke, he quickly added, “Grandpa, that powerful fighter earlier was sent by the Ten Thousand Merchants Association, right? If that’s the case, then I’ll go and wipe out the entire Ten Thousand Merchants Association.”

After Li Tianxie finished speaking and was about to head to the Ten Thousand Merchants Association to wipe them out, Wu Rulong stopped him.

“Hey, good grandson, you don’t need to get involved in this matter. I’ll handle it,” Wu Rulong said, waving his hand.

The next moment, he summoned a bell—a Chaos Bell.

At the sight of the Chaos Bell, Li Tianxie’s expression changed dramatically. He sensed from the Chaos Bell an aura that was fully on par with his own Anti-God Bell, perhaps even faintly more terrifying.

His own Anti-God Bell was already an Eighth-Grade Divine Artifact; could it be that his grandfather’s bell was a Ninth-Grade God Emperor Artifact?

Li Tianxie understood clearly that there was no way his grandfather could possess such a horrifying artifact purely by his own strength. There was only one explanation: it had been bestowed upon his grandfather by their Ancestor.

Thinking of this, Li Tianxie couldn’t help but inhale sharply. What level of existence was their Ancestor to simply grant a Ninth-Grade God Emperor Artifact like that? Not all God Emperors even possessed God Emperor Artifacts.

Those who wielded God Emperor Artifacts were without exception the elite among the elite God Emperors.

The following moment, thanks to the power of the Chaos Bell, Wu Rulong’s cultivation surged dramatically—from Early True God to Early God King.

After all, Wu Rulong had already investigated and knew the strongest within the Ten Thousand Merchants Association was only a God King-level powerhouse. With his early God King level boosted by the Chaos Bell, he had absolutely no reason to fear.

After breaking through from Early True God to Early God King, Wu Rulong no longer hesitated and took off, flying toward the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Merchants Association.

After Wu Rulong left, Mo Qianyun and Zheng Zidan still wore expressions full of shock. It was clear they never expected their own president to be so powerful—no, it wasn’t just the president’s power but the overwhelming strength of the divine artifact he possessed.

When they glanced toward Li Tianxie, they saw that as Wu Rulong departed, Li Tianxie also vanished.

Only Mo Qianyun and Zheng Zidan remained at the scene. They exchanged a glance and quickly rushed in the direction of the Ten Thousand Merchants Association. Deep down, they sensed that from this moment on, all the commerce groups throughout the Natural Domain would have to bow to their Wu Commerce Association.
