Fortune and Misfortune in an Instant, a Thunderclap from the Luo Family
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord the Ganwu Secret Realm slowly opened his eyes, his gaze reflecting the flow of space. He stretched lazily in a good mood, and with a casual wave of his hand, the light screen of the Virtual Universe floated before him.
Since he defied public opinion and invested heavily in Roche thousands of years ago, he has completely become a hands-off manager.
Every time I wake up from my slumber and see the wealth steadily growing in my account, even if the amount isn't astonishing, it's all thanks to the slow and steady accumulation.
Back then, many people secretly mocked him as an "investment black hole," saying that he had a sharp eye but always made mistakes, losing money on everything he invested in.
But what about this time?
Snort!
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord gave a light snort, his eyes filled with smug pride.
He also has the potential to become an investment legend!
With a light tap of his finger, the message panel opened. The next second, the smile on his face froze.
Luo Concept Stocks continue to plummet! Valuations of industries associated with the Ganwu Group have shrunk dramatically!
[Luo Feng has been missing for thousands of years. The Luo Family is facing a multi-faceted business war and attack. The leader has never shown up, and is suspected to have perished!]
The lines of messages made Ganwu Kingdom Lord frown deeply. Countless messages flashed across the screen, and finally, he simply switched directly to the internal database of the Virtual Universe Company to search for relevant information.
A moment later, the search results popped up: there were no official records of Luo Feng's death.
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Who is Luo Feng? He is the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord! Even if he really meets with misfortune, with the Chaos City Lord's abilities, Reverse Time and Space and rescuing people is just a piece of cake.
It's not a big problem.
He had just relaxed when another pinned message caught his eye, making him frown even more.
[Breaking News! The Cosmic Galaxy Milky Way announces the free transfer of its 30% stake in Earth's revenue to Tang Ping!]
Tang Ping?
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord was stunned. He searched through the list of the new generation of strong Human Race in his mind, but he still couldn't find this name.
Are you kidding me!
The value of Earth has been thoroughly examined by various powerful forces over the years.
If it weren't for the influence of the Chaos City Lord and Wind-Thunder Venerable, coupled with Luo Feng's untapped potential, all the major forces would have already flocked to him. Why would things be so lukewarm now?
It's important to understand that the Human Race is one of the Six Peak Races in the primordial universe. Which of those powerful races doesn't have hundreds or even thousands of Venerable or Universe Master behind them?
The descendants of these supreme beings number in the hundreds of billions or even trillions. The mere one hundred million births available on Earth each year are simply a drop in the ocean; there wouldn't be enough to go around even if everyone fought tooth and nail for them!
In order to ensure that their offspring can be conceived on Earth, some large families have gone so far as to develop special drugs to forcibly prolong the gestation period of the fetus in the mother's womb, even if it causes great damage to the mother's body!
Everyone is exercising restraint and observing.
What are they afraid of? They are afraid that Luo Feng will rise like Venerable Zhuohuo back then, a meteoric rise that will grow into an unparalleled powerhouse in just a few thousand years!
But now, the Cosmic Galaxy Milky Way are actually giving away such a huge piece of meat for free?
Luo Feng, the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord, wasn't qualified to take a bite. Just who is this Tang Ping?
Did he manage to conquer the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain? Or did he achieve the incredible feat of defeating King Rank during his realm master era?
The doubts in the mind of the Ganwu Kingdom Lord grew heavier, and he exerted force with his fingertips again, inputting commands.
[Search for information related to Tang Ping, the heir to Earth's equity.]
[A direct disciple of Wind-Thunder Venerable.]
Beep~
[Insufficient permissions, unable to continue searching.]
A cold, Ganwu Kingdom Lord's pupils constricted sharply.
Insufficient permissions?
Who is he? He is the master of the Ganwu Secret Realm, High Venerable ancient cultivation level. Within the Human Race Territory, even ordinary Universe Master have to show him some respect! How could an unknown Tang Ping possibly block information from him?
Etc!
Suddenly, the Ganwu Kingdom Lord remembered something, and a flash of inspiration struck him.
Wind-Thunder Venerable - Personal Disciple -
He remembered that the Wind-Thunder Venerable had come to his Ganwu Secret Realm thousands of years ago to take on a disciple. But after taking on a disciple, that guy didn't even ask for a gift before rushing off, as if he was afraid that he would try to keep him.
That disciple, I think his name is Tang San?
Tang San? Tang Ping?
Could these two names belong to the same person?
Holy crap!
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord slapped his thigh, his heart filled with shock. No wonder! No wonder Wind-Thunder Venerable ran so fast back then!
In the long run, the value of Earth is comparable to a Peak Treasure! And yet, 30% of that Peak Treasure was simply transferred to Tang Ping free of charge. What does this mean?
This means that Tang Ping will most likely grow into a true pillar of the Human Race, a future Universe Master, or even a top powerhouse among the Universe Master! The key is that this Tang Ping comes from his Ganwu Secret Realm! Moreover, back then, he was the one who happily delivered him to Wind-Thunder Venerable!
At this moment, the Ganwu Kingdom Lord was filled with remorse.
If Tang Ping were his apprentice, with such a future bigwig as his backer, wouldn't he be able to pay off the loan that was suffocating him? Wouldn't he be able to return to the Primitive Star in 80,000 years and recoup all his lost fortune?
#!#!#!
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord beat his chest and stamped his feet, his heart filled with despair and lamentation.
After much thought, the only thing that could offer him any solace was that "Luo Feng doesn't seem too bad after all."
"Alas!" A long, sorrowful sigh echoed for a long time in the empty palace.
The next second, the palace doors were flung open, and Thirteen rushed in, his face filled with anxiety. "Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened! We've received news that the Luo family, which has always been ruthless and decisive in business battles, has suddenly stopped for some unknown reason. Rumors are going crazy outside; everyone is saying that Luo Feng has probably perished!"
"Oh."
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord responded indifferently, and without saying another word, lay back on his throne and closed his eyes.
Seeing this, Thirteen became even more anxious. "Your Majesty! Please say something! This is a matter of life and death! Aren't you going to check with the Chaos City Lord? Should we, the Ganwu, continue to support the Luo Family?"
"I'm not feeling well, I'm going to sleep now."
The Ganwu Kingdom Lord spoke in a gruff voice, and before he finished speaking, the palace doors slammed shut, and an invisible force sent Thirteen flying.
I must be dreaming!
He closed his eyes tightly and frantically chanted in his mind.
Virtual Universe, Black Dragon Mountain Island, Nine Star Bay Residential Area.
Today, Nine Star Bay is the exclusive residence of the highest-ranking Luo Family. As for the other members of the family, they live scattered in various surrounding areas.
A family with a history spanning ten thousand years, and Luo Feng, the leader whose status is second only to the Ganwu Kingdom Lord, are enough to make the Luo Family wield immense power and Ganwu Universe Kingdom.
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
The sound of light footsteps echoed in the courtyard as Xu Xin, dressed in plain clothes, walked slowly.
As the general manager of Pinghai Company, she has been in charge of the Luo Family's business for thousands of years. The years have not dulled her sharpness, but instead have given her a noble and majestic aura that makes people dare not look directly at her.
With just a glance from her, the surrounding servants would instinctively lower their heads, not daring to even breathe. Yet at this moment, this pillar of the Luo Family, her brows were etched with an inescapable sorrow.
Not long ago, she received a timed email from six thousand years ago, sent by Luo Feng. The email contained only a few words, saying that he had encountered an unpredictable calamity, and his return was uncertain, ranging from ten thousand to a million years.
The atmosphere in the council chamber deep within the courtyard was oppressive.
Xu Xin, Luo Ping, Luo Hai, Luo Hongguo, Gong Xinlan, Luo Hua, and others gathered together, their faces filled with grief and sorrow.
Luo Feng is the pillar of the Luo Family! He is also the pillar of Earth Humans!
With him around, the Luo Family could run rampant in the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, Earth Humans could become a superior race, free from being bullied.
But now—this pillar has collapsed!
"Our Luo Family, our Earth, are now facing an unprecedented crisis." Xu Xin's voice was hoarse.
Inside the council chamber, everyone looked up at her, their eyes filled with anxiety and confusion.
"Luo Feng left an account and password in the email," Xu Xin said slowly, taking a deep breath. "That was our Luo Family's contingency fund—an incredibly huge sum of money."
She paused, a hint of disbelief in her voice. "The amount in that account is a staggering 50 billion Hunyuan Unit!"
Five hundred billion Hunyuan!
This number struck like a thunderbolt, exploding in everyone's ears. In the entire Ganwu Universe Kingdom, besides the Ganwu Kingdom Lord, who could possess such terrifying wealth?
"Everyone, get ready quickly and draft a contingency plan." Xu Xin's voice trembled slightly. "The world is cold and heartless; everyone is driven by profit. If something really happens to Luo Feng, our Luo Family's wealth will inevitably attract unwanted attention—with our current capabilities, Luo Family simply cannot protect such a large family fortune."
She stood up, her gaze resolute. "I'm going to see one of Luo Feng's closest friends right now. Only he knows Luo Feng's current situation; and only he has the ability and strength to protect our Luo Family through this crisis."
"Go now!"
"Go ahead, leave things here with the family!"
Luo Hongguo and Luo Hua quickly spoke up, their eyes full of anticipation.
