A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 73

“What? Father, are you planning to refine a cauldron to suppress the fortune of the Wu Family?” Wu Rulong had just exited his seclusion when he heard Wu Hao’s words, and his expression turned momentarily surprised. After all, based on his understanding of his father, Wu Hao rarely concerned himself with family matters. It could be said that ever since Qiankun and the others were born, Wu Hao had seldom intervened in the affairs of the Wu Family.

Wu Hao nodded. “That’s right. Our Wu Family can now be considered a somewhat powerful family, so naturally, we need a higher-ranked item to suppress our family’s fortune and ensure our prosperity in the path of immortality.” In many powerful dynasties or factions, there would be items to suppress their dynasty’s fortune to ensure its everlasting prosperity, such as the Flourishing Dynasty or the Myriad Flower Holy Land.

Moreover, to suppress fortune, the item would need to be at least a Supreme-grade spiritual treasure. However, Wu Rulong sighed and spoke with a hint of melancholy. “Father, it’s not that I don’t want to; it’s just that the last time it took a long time to gather the materials necessary to refine the Imperial Weapon Long Sword. If you ask me to find them again, I’m afraid it will take quite a while to collect everything.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao remained silent for a moment, then sighed and said, “Do your best. I will also search for materials on my end. Once we have gathered everything, we can refine a spiritual treasure to suppress the family’s fortune.”

Since this was related to the fortune of the Wu Family, Wu Rulong certainly wouldn’t take it lightly. He quickly instructed for a search for materials to refine the Imperial Weapons within the Xuantian Realm. However, for some reason, not only were there no Great Emperors in the Xuantian Realm, but even the materials needed to refine Imperial Weapons had become extremely rare. Even the powerful Wu Commerce Association took an entire year to gather all the required materials.

Now, if Wu Hao wanted to forge a new Imperial Weapon, it would naturally take quite some time. Before long, only five years remained until the Four Saints Competition would convene. At that moment, in the Myriad Flower Holy Land, Lin Tianyi, who had been in seclusion for a long time, finally emerged. With Wu Hao’s assistance, Lin Tianyi had finally broken through to the long-coveted Quasi-Emperor realm. Although Lin Tianyi was only at the Initial Stage of Quasi-Emperor, everyone in the Myriad Flower Holy Land knew they absolutely could not let Lin Tianyi be unhappy. After all, behind Lin Tianyi was Su Qiaoran, and behind Su Qiaoran was that man.

“Holy Lord, the Four Saints Competition is about to be held again. Do you plan to attend this time?” The Great Elder approached Lin Tianyi with a hint of hesitation on his face as he inquired.

Seeing the expression of the Great Elder, Lin Tianyi understood his concerns. After all, previously it had always been Murong Huang representing the Myriad Flower Holy Land, but now it was him, a newbie at the Initial Stage of Quasi-Emperor. If he were to go, he might be looked down upon by the likes of Li Taibai and others.

However, Lin Tianyi simply shook his head and said slowly, “It doesn’t matter. After all, I will have to show myself eventually. Furthermore, the news of Murong Huang’s demise will soon spread throughout the Xuantian Realm. When that happens, we won’t be able to keep it a secret, so it would be better to take this opportunity to let everyone in the Xuantian Realm know that the Holy Lord of the Myriad Flower Holy Land has been replaced by me.”

Hearing Lin Tianyi’s words, the Great Elder sighed and had no choice but to agree. However, he thought that the man behind Lin Tianyi wouldn’t just stand by and watch him face trouble, right?

Before long, Lin Shuirou, Li Taibai, and Lei Wanyun rushed in from their respective Holy Lands. After all, the Chaos Secret Realm was located in the Central Region, so naturally, they needed to convene there for the Four Saints Competition. It was also the perfect time to discuss related matters at the Myriad Flower Holy Land.

Soon, Lei Wanyun appeared before the Myriad Flower Holy Land, lightning crackling around him. Upon entering the grounds of the Myriad Flower Holy Land, the lightning on his body finally subsided.

As Lei Wanyun arrived, a flash of green could be seen rushing toward the Myriad Flower Holy Land from the east at an incredible speed—it was Li Taibai flying in on his sword.

After Li Taibai arrived, a blue water sphere zipped in from the north, almost vanishing in an instant as it reached the vicinity of the Myriad Flower Holy Land, revealing the graceful figure of Lin Shuirou.

Seeing that everyone had gathered, Li Taibai smiled and said, “Fellow Daoists, it’s been a while.”

“Indeed, the last time we met was during that event.” Lei Wanyun chuckled, but for some reason, all three of them seemed a bit uneasy in their expressions.

Soon, though, they brushed off this small episode; with such a vast Xuantian Realm, it was unlikely they would once again encounter Wu Hao in such unfortunate circumstances.

“Where’s that old guy Murong Huang? Why haven’t we seen him?” Lei Wanyun said, recalling something casually.

Given the situation, it would be expected for Murong Huang to have shown up by now, especially with the three of them making such a grand entrance.

As Li Taibai and the others expressed their curiosity, Lin Tianyi gradually appeared before them. After he showed himself, he performed a respectful bow and greeted them, saying, “I greet the three fellow Daoists. I am Lin Tianyi, the new Holy Lord of the Myriad Flower Holy Land!”

Upon hearing Lin Tianyi’s words, Li Taibai and the others were momentarily stunned, clearly not expecting that the Holy Lord of the Myriad Flower Holy Land had changed in such a short time.

It’s one thing to change people, but why is it just a newbie at the Initial Stage of Quasi-Emperor?

“You’re the new Holy Lord of the Myriad Flower Holy Land? What happened to Murong Huang?” Li Taibai asked, furrowing his brows in confusion.

With a calm smile on his face, Lin Tianyi replied, “Holy Lord Murong passed away not long ago due to some matters, so I took over the position. Is there anything else you three fellow Daoists want to ask?”

Although Lin Tianyi felt quite nervous inside, he maintained a relaxed demeanor on the surface. After all, he represented the Myriad Flower Holy Land, and he couldn’t embarrass it.

In the shadows, several Protector Elders were secretly observing everything. If anything seemed off, they were prepared to rush out to support Lin Tianyi; they absolutely couldn’t let him get hurt.

Li Taibai and the others exchanged glances, and they could see shock in each other’s eyes regarding Murong Huang’s passing.

After all, Murong Huang was at the Quasi-Emperor Peak, and with the support of Buddha’s Furious Tang Lotus, he could still hold his own against someone at the Initial Stage of Great Emperor. Who could possibly have caused his demise?

While Lin Tianyi mentioned Murong Huang’s passing, anyone with insight could hear that he had surely fallen due to an accident, and it was likely human-caused, considering Murong Huang was still under three hundred thousand years old, whereas a Quasi-Emperor has a lifespan of six hundred thousand years.

Thinking of this, a heavy feeling settled in the hearts of Li Taibai and the others. If someone had truly killed Murong Huang, wouldn’t that mean they could also be taken down?
