Luo Family Seeks Help

In the Sun Temple of the Solar System, Tang Ping, holding a soft whip woven from silver threads, was playing a fun game of "riding horses and cracking whips" with a group of Alien Race maids.

A soft whip flicked, whistling through the air, and the maids, some swaying their fluffy fox ears, others flicking their glistening mermaid tails, playfully dodged the whip, filling the hall with lighthearted laughter.

But Tang Ping didn't smile much; instead, he seemed rather listless.

He had originally been looking forward to the day when those forces coveting Earth's interests would come knocking, after he took over the shares. He would then have the perfect opportunity to show off and teach those people a lesson.

The reality, however, left him deeply frustrated. Those people only dared to rant a few words on the forums of the Virtual Universe. When they saw that the Human Race's high-ranking officials did not react at all, they immediately went silent. There wasn't even a single tough guy who dared to jump out.

Even more outrageous, many members of previously arrogant and haughty families took the initiative to come to him, trying every means to befriend him, hoping that he could help introduce Tang Ping to them.

"Are they all this materialistic?" Tang Ping rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, "Can't some brain-dead rich kid come to my door demanding an explanation?"

I'm shivering and freezing!

But then he thought about it again and felt relieved.

The brain-dead second-generation rich kids can only bully others on their own planets; they have no ability to cultivate to the Immortal Realm. If they were to reach that level and still be so clueless, they would have been killed long ago. The Human Race might tolerate them a little out of consideration for their own kind, but those Alien Race will not.

Moreover, most of the realm lords of the major Human Race forces have to go to the Outer Battlefield or dangerous secret realms to train. If they are not careful, they will die. Without some brains, they simply cannot survive.

"It's good that no one's bothering me." Tang Ping shook his head, his fingertips tracing the air, strands of pure Divine Power Flow. "It'll allow me to develop peacefully."

Unbeknownst to him, another thousand years had passed. His cultivation of Space Law had approached its limit, and his Divine Power Path had broken through to a terrifying two thousand times.

The only thing that frustrated him was that the more than 100 billion Hunyuan he had previously acquired was about to be spent.

Fortunately, he has powerful backers!

Tang Ping's eyes lit up, and he immediately opened the chat interface of the Virtual Universe, finding the exclusive group chat called "Lovey-Dovey Master-Disciple Group".

Tang Ping: @Fenglei Wind-Thunder Venerable @Penggong Lord of Peng Gong Master, Grandmaster, I'm out of money, please send me some!

The moment the message was sent, two red envelope notifications popped up in the group chat.

[The Wind-Thunder Venerable has sent you an exclusive red envelope: 5,000,000,000 Hunyuan]

[Lord of Peng Gong sends you an exclusive red envelope: 50000000000 Hunyuan]

Tang Ping was in high spirits as he watched the 55 billion Hunyuan instantly deposited into his account.

In this world, connections are everything!

He immediately switched accounts, logged into the Hong Alliance Trading Platform under the identity of King Anle, and with a wave of his hand, posted a series of high-priced acquisition orders, targeting various rare Special Lifeform fragments and fragments of rare and precious materials.

He had previously tried to acquire these items on the internal platform of the Cosmic Galaxy Milky Way, only to find that not only were the prices inflated, but it was also difficult to obtain rare goods. Later, he discovered that the Hong Alliance, a trading platform primarily composed of Human Race but encompassing countless vassal races, held many valuable items.

His previous order of over 100 billion Hunyuan made him the top super buyer on the Hong Alliance platform. Now, with this order of over 10 billion Hunyuan, it has instantly attracted the attention of countless sellers.

Many people came to him with their treasured materials, and some impoverished vassal tribes were so poor that they simply sold their own body parts: a single hair, a piece of scale, they were willing to exchange for money as long as Tang Ping needed them.

To Tang Ping, these were merely materials for studying the Divine Power Path; taking a small fragment would have no impact on the opponent's life.

This was the first time those vassal tribes had realized that something they could casually shed could fetch an astronomical price. The thought of them wandering around the secret realm with "enormous wealth" every day made them sweat with anxiety.

The Hong Alliance platform comes with its own authoritative authentication system. After Tang Ping placed the order, he left all the subsequent verification and payment matters to Little Love. This Little Cat Girl virtual Elf had absorbed some kind of information and was much more proactive than Babata, requiring no effort from him at all.

"Work hard." Tang Ping patted Little Love's head and solemnly promised, "When I make a lot of money next time, I'll buy you Evolution Heart so you can evolve into a more advanced Smart Life."

"Alright!" The Little Cat Girl's eyes lit up, and she immediately straightened her back and continued processing orders with great enthusiasm, her fluffy tail wagging happily.

Watching the little guy running around busily, Tang Ping revealed the happy smile typical of a ruthless boss.

The life of a big shot is so simple, unpretentious, and even boring.

Just then, the virtual terminal suddenly beeped urgently.

[Beep beep beep~ Emergency video call request]

Tang Ping raised an eyebrow and answered the call curiously. The next moment, Xu Xin's virtual image appeared on the screen. Unlike her dignified and noble appearance when they last met, she looked haggard and had red eyes.

"Senior King Anle, Luo Feng is in trouble, did you know?" Xu Xin asked directly.

Tang Ping was taken aback, only then remembering the scheduled email he had received a few days ago.

The email was from Luo Feng. It was very simple, asking him to look after the Luo Family and promising a big surprise in the future. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time, since he knew that Luo Feng would eventually succeed in passing the Star Tower test.

Judging from Xu Xin's appearance, the news of Luo Feng's disappearance has clearly been a huge blow to the Luo Family, and may even have plunged Luo Family into a life-or-death crisis.

Tang Ping quickly dropped his joking expression and reassured her in a deep voice, "Mistress, there's no need to panic. The head of the family Heavenly Aspect, and the Virtual Universe Company hasn't announced his demise yet, so he'll be fine."

Besides, given my relationship with the head of the family, you can just call me Tang Ping; there's no need to be so formal."

"But there's been no news of Brother Feng for six thousand years, and he even sent that email—" Xu Xin's voice trembled with anxiety, "Can you tell me where he went? My Luo Family is rich; we're willing to spend any amount of Hunyuan just to rescue Brother Feng!"

She thought to herself, "Even Venerable Level expert would be tempted by the 50 billion Hunyuan in my account, right?"

Tang Ping gently shook his head. "Mistress, it's not that I'm unwilling to say, but there are probably spies from other forces hiding within the Luo Family. The more people who know, the more danger the head of the family will be in."

Don't worry, I can contact my Grandmaster and ask him to help confirm the family head's safety.

He paused, then continued, "And you don't need to worry too much. The clan has a service that Reverse Time and Space and resurrects powerful individuals. Even if the clan head really meets with misfortune, resurrecting a powerful individual below the King Rank only requires 100 billion Hunyuan."

Although this would require a certain Human Race ruler to spare the time to process it in batches, I have a very close relationship with my Grandmaster. At worst, I can ask him to make an exception and arrange the resurrection ahead of schedule. As for the 100 billion Hunyuan, I can owe it to him for now; I still have that much face to spare."

Hearing this, Xu Xin's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

After a moment, Tang Ping turned around with a gentle smile on his face, "Don't worry, Mistress, Grandmaster has already contacted the Chaos City Lord. Brother Luo carries the Chaos City Lord's Divine Power token, confirming he's still alive. He's probably trapped in some dangerous situation."

Xu Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then an indescribable sense of sorrow welled up inside her.

Last time, Luo Feng perished alongside a giant beast on Earth. She intended to die for him, but unexpectedly awakened Eternal Body, rendering her unable to cultivate but granting her a lifespan of tens of millions of years. If Brother Feng were trapped in a perilous situation for tens of millions of years, wouldn't she never have another chance to see him again?

But she quickly composed herself. The Luo Family depended entirely on her; she couldn't panic, nor could she collapse.

"Brother Ping," Xu Xin took a deep breath, her tone regaining its composure, "Afterwards, my Luo Family will implement a series of contraction and infiltration plans, awaiting Luo Feng's return. My Luo Family is willing to temporarily mortgage the 70% property rights on Earth to you free of charge, hoping you will step in to protect the Luo Family."

Tang Ping quickly waved his hand, his tone firm. "Mistress is joking. I would never take advantage of someone in distress. You can focus on shrinking your forces. I will send you a few secret treasures later to protect you. If you activate them at a critical moment, you can even hold your own against King Level expert."

Moreover, this crisis is also an opportunity for the Luo Family, a perfect chance to purge disloyal parasites from within.

His eyes were solemn, and his voice was firm. "Rest assured, Mistress, with me here, the sky over the earth will not fall!"

Xu Xin remained silent for a moment.

If we really have to rely entirely on you, then the sky will truly fall.

After that, she would have to ask Feng Ge's master King Zhen Yan, and Luo Hai's master Ganwu Kingdom Lord, to intervene. Over the years, the Luo Family had expanded too much and made too many enemies; King Anle alone could not support the situation.

But she didn't say it aloud; she just nodded slightly and said, "I understand, Brother Ping, thank you."

After speaking, Xu Xin's virtual image disappeared from the light screen.

Seeing the obvious distrust in Xu Xin's expression as she left, Tang Ping felt a surge of resentment. He turned to Little Love, who was still busy nearby, and frowned as he asked, "Am I really that unreliable? Why doesn't anyone trust me?"

Little Love stopped what she was doing, her pointed ears twitched slightly, her big eyes blinked repeatedly, and then she silently raised her head and looked at the ceiling without saying a word.

"You don't believe me either?" Tang Ping roared, immediately exiting the Virtual Universe and turning to walk out of the hall. "No, I have to go and talk to those maids!"

Snort!

Tang Ping is known as a reliable guy on Earth Lineage!
