The Mission's End

"My lord!" Everyone present bowed to this King-level Immortal from the Virtual Universe Company.

"Hmph! Don't think about such nonsense. What my Virtual Universe Company gives you, is naturally yours. What my Virtual Universe Company doesn't give you, you'd better not even think about!" As he spoke, the King-level Immortal looked at the purple-haired elder with a slightly meaningful gaze, his expression particularly amused, and with a hint of rebuke.

"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare!" Upon hearing this, the purple-haired elder broke out in a cold sweat and repeatedly said he wouldn't dare. He was joking, he was just thinking about it. After experiencing the Virtual Universe Company's casual crushing defeat, who in the entire clan would dare not take the people sent by the company seriously? The higher-ups in the Aurora Race had even been tamed to the point that they dared not refute any decision made by the Virtual Universe Company!

"It's good that you understand your own position. My Virtual Universe Company is cooperating with your Aurora Race. In the end, your clan benefits the most. Otherwise, with those secret scriptures of your clan, to be honest, they wouldn't even be qualified to enter the treasure vault of my Virtual Universe Company. You should be secretly happy!" This King-level Immortal began to brainwash the Aurora Race present with words that had a slightly manipulative tone.

"Yes, yes!" The purple-haired Aurora Race elder nodded with a smile, wiping his sweat. The scene was quite comical, but no one present felt any urge to laugh. To King-level Immortal —how terrifying!

Just then, the teleportation array in the last portal suddenly lit up. Accompanied by a spatial fluctuation, Lu Yan'an's figure quietly appeared in the portal.

"Your His Highness An!" The rather tense atmosphere on the field was instantly broken the moment Lu Yan'an was teleported back.

Lu Yan'an stared blankly at the numerous Aurora Race high-ranking members present, instantly falling into deep thought. "Has my enormous gain been discovered?" he wondered gravely, while simultaneously plotting his escape.

As he was pondering, Lu Yan'an suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder. "Little guy, take out a portion of the inheritance you received here! Of course, only the secret techniques will do." A voice rang in his ear.

Instantly, Lu Yan'an broke out in a cold sweat! He hadn't even noticed when this person had appeared beside him. In other words, if this person harbored ill intentions, he wouldn't even have a chance to resist!

As if sensing Lu Yan'an's apprehension, the voice rang in his ears again. "Let me introduce myself. I come from the Martial Department of the Virtual Universe Company and am currently stationed in the Void Palace above Mingguang Star. You can call me 'Tianyu King'." The Feathered Race, born with wings, introduced himself.

"Yes, Tianyu King." Lu Yan'an breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Now that this powerful Feng Wang from the Virtual Universe Company had arrived, there was no need to worry about his safety, and the contingency plans he had made in the Inheritance Land were completely unnecessary to use.

He took a silver Space Ring from his hand and respectfully handed it to the Tianyu King.

The latter casually took it, and after scanning the Space Ring with his Spiritual Force, his expression didn't change at all! A moment later, he tossed the ring to the red-robed elder who seemed to be the highest-ranking member of the Aurora Race present, as if it were trash.

Meanwhile, amidst the latter's excited and barely suppressed expression, he slowly said, "I'll keep this as a backup for you. My Virtual Universe Company will send someone to pick it up in a year. Don't have any ulterior motives; there are some things you can't control yet!"

After saying that, he looked up at Lu Yan'an: "Come here!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan'an obediently walked towards the Tianyu King.

"I've heard you're a prodigy of the Time lineage, so today I'll let you experience the heaven-defying secret technique of my Space lineage, 'Teleportation'!" Tianyu King placed his hand back on Lu Yan'an's shoulder, and at the same time, spatial fluctuations rippled around him. The next moment, the two of them vanished from their spot.

Only inside the Aurora Tower, the high-ranking Aurora Race looked at each other in bewilderment.

Finally, with the red-robed elder's slightly trembling voice, the icy atmosphere in the room instantly melted away.

"This... this inheritance actually contains Peak Secret Technique at the level of Universe Overlord!"

Upon hearing this, the Aurora Race's high-ranking members cheered with joy. Even the usually composed Mingluo's face flushed with excitement.

"This is the opportunity for our clan's rise!" the purple-haired elder roared with extreme excitement. Amidst this fervent atmosphere, the high-ranking members of the Aurora Race began to envision a bright future for their clan's rise...

Of course, Lu Yan'an knew nothing about what happened to the higher-ups of the Aurora Race later on.

Under the Tianyu King's Teleportation technique, the two instantly traveled from the Aurora Tower to the outside of the Void Palace.

"How does it feel? How's the Teleportation?" Tianyu King asked in a teasing tone. "Why don't you switch to cultivating the laws of space? The Time Law have no future!"

"Hahaha!" Lu Yan'an laughed awkwardly, without replying.

Seeing that Lu Yan'an was like a seasoned veteran, completely unmoved by any attempts to fool him, the Tianyu King was not annoyed but instead smiled quite honestly, "If you don't want to switch cultivation methods, then don't switch. This Teleportation does indeed have some flaws."

"Flaws?" Lu Yan'an was a little curious. The original story didn't mention any flaws in Teleportation! Tianyu King's words immediately piqued his curiosity.

"Naturally, the distance of Teleportation is limited. Moreover, it's insufficient for traveling extremely long distances. Finally, Space Rhythm is the key to activating the Teleportation, and if a skilled individual comprehends and uses Space Lockdown, they will be unable to use Teleportation within a certain spatial area!"

The Tianyu King patiently explained to him. It was clear that he was genuinely taking his guidance to Lu Yan'an seriously.

"Of course, there's another way to travel extremely long distances," Tianyu King added. "This can be considered a kind of long-distance Teleportation! Have you heard of God Kingdom Teleportation? However, this kind of Teleportation isn't Teleportation after comprehending the laws of the universe or understanding the laws of space. Rather, it's a special ability inherent in the 'God Kingdom' itself, an ability that the God Kingdom has possessed naturally since its inception."

"These are all things for later; you'll experience them when you have the chance. Now, let's go in and report the mission to the Palace Master." With that, Tianyu King led the way, flying towards the Void Palace ahead.

"Please wait a moment longer," Lu Yan'an pleaded. Upon hearing this, the Tianyu King in front of him slowed down his flight and turned to look at him with a puzzled expression.

"Mingguang Star."

Standing outside the Void Palace, Lu Yan'an looked back at the vast continental module below, the Mingguang Star, which was completely under the actual control of the Virtual Universe Company. He felt a pang of regret. "Farewell then. You've truly taught me a lesson. I will strive to become stronger and prevent the Yuan Planet race from becoming like you. I hope that when we meet again, your Aurora Race will have risen to prominence!"

Lu Yan'an knew that he estimated he wouldn't be able to come to this planet again for at least a thousand or ten thousand years. Furthermore, he still had many questions about this Mingguang Star.

"However, the company should give me a satisfactory answer, right?" Lu Yan'an. He looked at the Tianyu King who was waiting for him ahead, still full of doubts he wanted to ask. But it was clearly not the time to ask, so Lu Yan'an could only patiently fly towards the "Void Palace" ahead.

Above the Mingguang Star, an incredibly tall palace floats in the air; this is the Void Palace.

It is said that because of the existence of this palace, many powerful figures on Mingguang Star have been unable to venture into space and have never dared to come out, instead remaining confined to the planet.

And even today, a prince from the Virtual Universe Company, who has just completed a mission, is entering this Void Palace to report on it. No one could have imagined that this seemingly simple mission report would alter the entire fate of Mingguang Star!
