My Wife Divorced me At the Start but I Gained a Billionfold Repayment System

Chapter 40: Chen Wangu: ...

“That is only natural. The Tiansheng Grand Tournament will be held in fourteen years, and by then they will already be adults. Participating in the Tiansheng Grand Tournament will not be a problem.”

Lu Xunxian spoke calmly.

Everything was still within his control.

Fourteen years from now, his son and daughter would already possess the strength to stand on their own.

And within those fourteen years, he planned to raise them until they possessed at least the strength of the Saint King Realm. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

A twenty-year-old cultivator in the Saint King Realm would be exceedingly rare even in the entirety of Tiansheng Continent.

But Lu Xunxian had that level of confidence.

After thinking it over, Chen Wangu found that this was indeed true, so he did not say anything more. He merely offered a silent prayer in his heart for the young cultivators who would participate in this Tiansheng Grand Tournament.

Once this pair of little monsters joined the tournament, the others would probably have no chance at all.

Then he thought of something else and asked tentatively, “Now that Xiaoyao and Qingyun have already comprehended the Law of Space, do we still need to remain in Aurora Kingdom?”

One of the main reasons Chen Wangu had chosen Aurora Kingdom in the first place was to let the two little ones try to comprehend the Power of the Law of Space.

Yet he had never expected them to comprehend it so quickly.

If that was the case, then there no longer seemed to be any point in staying in Aurora Kingdom.

Lu Xunxian did not answer Chen Wangu. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun.

“Daddy, we want to go back. We want to cultivate!”

Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun wore determined expressions as they waved their little clenched fists.

“Alright, then let’s go!”

Lu Xunxian smiled and led everyone outside the inn.

Wangcai very consciously enlarged his body.

Once everyone climbed onto his back, he immediately flew in the direction of Chengtian City.

After they left, Feng Qingyu and Gu Tiansheng also received the news, and both of them wore grave expressions.

“I never expected Chairman Chen to have comprehended the Power of the Law of Space. It seems that after we return, we will have to ask the Holy Lord to make a trip to Chengtian City.”

Gu Tiansheng spoke slowly.

The Holy Lord of Qingfeng Sacred Land was not weak. He was evenly matched with Chen Wangu, so there was no need for him to deliberately befriend Chen Wangu.

But now that Chen Wangu had comprehended the Power of the Law of Space, the relationship between Qingfeng Sacred Land and the Myriad Treasures Pavilion would naturally have to change.

At the side, Feng Qingyu seemed somewhat unsettled.

“What is wrong?”

Gu Tiansheng asked with concern.

But Feng Qingyu merely shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Seeing that Feng Qingyu was unwilling to speak, Gu Tiansheng hesitated slightly, then made her a solemn promise.

“Qingyu, the Tiansheng Grand Tournament will be held in fourteen years. When the time comes, I will take first place in the Tiansheng Grand Tournament, and then I will ask the Holy Lord to grant us a marriage before everyone at the tournament itself.”

Only then did Feng Qingyu force herself to squeeze out a smile.

“Tiansheng, let us cultivate properly. I hope that you and I can comprehend the Power of the Law of Space as soon as possible.”

“We definitely can. If Chen Wangu can do it, then why can’t we? Our talent is far greater than his.”

Gu Tiansheng looked full of fighting spirit. Since the beginning of his cultivation, he had never suffered a setback, so he naturally did not believe that Chen Wangu could accomplish something he could not.

As Gu Tiansheng sat down once more to comprehend the Power of the Law of Space, Feng Qingyu still looked restless.

What she had not told Gu Tiansheng just now was that she had suddenly felt a stirring in her bloodline, as though she had sensed her own bloodline.

But how could that be possible? Even the Bloodline Tracking Art had failed to find her son and daughter, so how could such a thing suddenly appear out of nowhere now?

If they were truly still alive, then would that not mean that a Saint Emperor expert had stepped in to protect them?

That was something Feng Qingyu absolutely could not accept.

She would never tolerate anything that threatened her future.

Although a Saint-Grade Spiritual Root could win her a decent future within Qingfeng Sacred Land, what she desired was far more than that. She wanted to cling to Gu Tiansheng and feed off him endlessly so that she could become even stronger.

But for now, the most important thing was still to comprehend the Power of the Law of Space.

As long as she could comprehend the power of Laws before Ascending to the Immortal Realm, then once she ascended to the Immortal Realm, she would absolutely be fought over by all the great factions there.

That was right. To Feng Qingyu, Qingfeng Sacred Land was nothing more than a stepping stone. If she could enter an even more powerful faction, then she would leave Qingfeng Sacred Land without the slightest hesitation.

Just as she had once abandoned her husband and children for an opportunity to become an Immortal.

***

A Saint King Realm demon beast was extremely fast, and the Heaven-Devouring Tiger excelled particularly in speed.

In only three days, they had already returned from Aurora Kingdom in the Western Heaven to Chengtian City.

The efficiency of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion was also extremely high. With the abundant Top-Grade Spirit Liquid provided by Lu Xunxian, by the time Lu Xunxian and the others returned, they had already gathered all the Spiritual Treasures needed to allow the Heaven-Devouring Tiger to evolve into an Immortal Beast Bloodline.

“Old Lu, check it over.”

Chen Wangu let out a long breath of relief and handed the Storage Ring in his hand to Lu Xunxian.

But Lu Xunxian did not even bother checking it and simply accepted it.

“Old Lu, you are not even going to check it?”

“There is no need. I trust you.”

Lu Xunxian’s tone was serious, and Chen Wangu was deeply moved. He had clearly not expected Lu Xunxian to trust him so much.

But before he could voice that emotion, Lu Xunxian immediately continued, “You do not have the guts to deceive me. If you did, I would tear the entire Myriad Treasures Pavilion apart.”

Chen Wangu withdrew a portion of that gratitude.

“Oh, right. Where are you staying now? If I have time, can I come find you?”

Hearing that, Lu Xunxian thought about it for a moment and did not hide it.

“We are currently staying inside the Myriad Dao Academy.”

“The Myriad Dao Academy? You were the one who beat Old Xu flat?”

To Lu Xunxian’s surprise, Chen Wangu’s eyes lit up, and he asked in astonishment.

Now it was Lu Xunxian’s turn to be surprised.

“You know that old fellow Xu Ruoshan?”

“Of course. How should I put it? My relationship with him is fairly good, so I also know that four years ago, Old Xu and that group of teachers under him were all beaten flat by a mysterious expert.”

“I was curious back then about who it had been. I never expected it to be you.”

“Still, that makes sense. Old Xu may like boasting a little, but his strength is actually quite impressive.”

Chen Wangu wore a look of sudden understanding as he spoke.

At that moment, Lu Xunxian looked toward Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun and said, “Alright, we should be leaving now. Say goodbye to Uncle Chen.”

“Goodbye, Uncle Chen.”

Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun obediently waved to Chen Wangu in farewell, which delighted him so much that his heart practically blossomed with joy. He immediately took out two Twelfth-Grade Spirit Artifacts from his Storage Ring and gave one to each of them.

For Chen Wangu, who stood behind the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, two Twelfth-Grade Spirit Artifacts were not particularly precious items.

Looking at the Twelfth-Grade Spirit Artifacts in front of them, Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun hesitated.

Chen Wangu assumed they were worried that the gifts were too valuable and did not dare accept them, so he hurriedly said, “Are you worried that they are too precious, so you do not want to accept them? Don’t worry. To Uncle Chen, these are nothing.”

But to his surprise, in the very next moment, Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun shook their heads.

“No, Uncle Chen. What we want to say is that the things you gave us do not seem to be as powerful as the ones Daddy gave us.”

After saying that, Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun each took out an Immortal Artifact from their storage rings, as if heaven and earth themselves might split apart from their mere presence.
