No cashback?

After gifting Ling Xi Crisp Moon Workshop worth 10 Hunyuan, Lu Qingshan's cheat system showed no reaction whatsoever.

"It seems that the gifting of shares is similar to the gifting of Universe Coin, and is not within the scope of the system's cash-out policy."

Lu Qingshan didn't feel sorry for him.

Ling Yu gave him 10,000 Hunyuan Unit, and giving 10 Hunyuan to Ling Xi was nothing; not everything requires a reward.

This was just one of his attempts at using cheat codes.

What frustrated Lu Qingshan was that Ling Xi seemed like a useless little burden; taking in this little rascal hadn't helped him at all. Well... not exactly, at least she was a pretty good cook.

Ling Xi is currently only at the Star Level Nine and doesn't enjoy cultivation. It's difficult to find a suitable gift that would also benefit oneself. Even if one were to give her a C-class Nutrient Solution, the most one would return would be a D-class Nutrient Solution useful to Domain Lord...

He's already a World Lord...

Ling Yu is a genius and has helped me so much. As for Ling Xi, she's a good-for-nothing. Not everyone can be a genius.

Anyway, this cheat system doesn't have a limit on the number of apprentices it can take on, so it doesn't crowd out its own room for improvement.

Just then...

Nasus sent a reminder.

"Master, Marquis Silvermoon just sent an email, ordering you to return to the Ganwu Mystic Region immediately."

"Um?"

Lu Qingshan realized something.

" Ling Xi, we should go back."

As he spoke, he grabbed Ling Xi's shoulder and traversed Ganwu City Ganwu City, and there were no speed limits for people on the ground. Lu Qingshan's speed at this moment was comparable to the speed of light, and he arrived outside the teleportation channel in the blink of an eye.

"Walk!"

He activated the token, and he and Ling Xi disappeared into the passage.

On Wind Thunder Island.

"Greetings, Lord Marquis Silvermoon..."

Lu Qingshan bowed respectfully, indicating that Marquis Silvermoon must have been waiting for him there for a moment.

Marquis Silvermoon's voice was ethereal yet tinged with seriousness. " Lu Qingshan, the great Ganwu Country Lord has personally summoned you. You must be careful with your words and actions, and absolutely must not offend the ruler's majesty..."

" Qingshan understands."

Lu Qingshan nodded and said.

"Yes, come with me to see the great king."

A gravitational force appeared out of nowhere around him. Lu Qingshan did not resist, and a moment later, he arrived on a huge island.

Marquis Mingguang and Marquis Canghai had arrived first and were waiting here.

Lu Qingshan had just landed.

A man clad in golden armor emerged from the hall. "The king requests that you all enter."

"Thank you for the notification."

Marquis Mingguang expressed his gratitude and then walked towards the main hall. Marquis Canghai and Marquis Silvermoon followed behind him, with Lu Qingshan trailing behind Marquis Silvermoon by one step.

He was also somewhat excited.

The Ganwu Country Lord.

This is High Universe Venerable, the strongest person he has encountered in the more than 90,000 years since he transmigrated here.

The Ganwu Country Lord is of good character; otherwise, he wouldn't have accumulated so much debt, and despite his repeated near-death experiences, people would still be willing to True Treasure...

Lu Qingshan secretly plotted that if he could find the Ganwu Country Lord to be his backer, he would have a powerful backer among the higher-ups of the Human Race.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Upon entering the main hall, the group didn't even raise their heads before bowing in worship...

"Get up."

The Elder Gu voice seemed to come from beyond the heavens. Lu Qingshan rose with the three Immortal, and only then did his peripheral vision fall on this great powerhouse for the first time.

He wore a noble purple robe, his figure was slightly thin, and he had two sharp black horns on his head. The surrounding space and Time-Space seemed to be distorted and disordered.

The Ganwu Country Lord, who sat on the throne, actually kept his eyes closed the entire time.

After the others got up, he opened his eyes, his deep gaze as vast as the starry sky.

" Mingguang... Canghai... Silvermoon... In this Genius Battle, our Ganwu Universe Country won first place. You all did very well..."

"Your Majesty," Marquis Mingguang bowed respectfully, " Mingguang dare not take credit for our first-place finish in this Genius Battle; it is all thanks to Instructor Silvermoon and Instructor Lu Qingshan."

"Yes, Your Majesty, Ling Yu is the personal disciple of Marquis Silvermoon. She brought her back to the secret realm for training and later found Instructor Lu Qingshan for her. Mingguang and I did not play any role in this."

The two were sincere and did not want to take credit.

In reality, they knew that nothing in the entire Ganwu Mystic Region could escape the eyes of the Great King.

If they were to claim credit for themselves, it might displease the king.

"You two have managed the Ganwu Mystic Region for many years and trained disciples; even if you haven't achieved great merit, you've certainly worked hard..."

Ganwu then looked at Marquis Silvermoon: "You've taken on a good disciple."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

The Ganwu Country Lord continued, " Mingguang, Canghai, your treatment will be doubled in the next era. Silvermoon... this treasure will be bestowed upon you."

An ancient-looking disc flew from the Ganwu's hand and landed in front of the Marquis Silvermoon.

Upon seeing this treasure...

Marquis Silvermoon's eyes seemed exceptionally bright, while Marquis Canghai and Marquis Mingguang beside him both showed expressions of envy.

" Luo Fu Liu Disc!"

Lu Qingshan communicated with Nasus and learned the origin of this treasure. It was a very precious Immortal Divine Weapon, generally usable only by those Marquis Immortal. It was Spirit Power flight weapon.

value...

Between 1 million and 2 million Hunyuan.

Unexpectedly, the Ganwu Country Lord was so generous. This weapon is much more precious than the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield. If Lu Qingshan were to exchange this weapon with the Black Dragon God Lord, the Black Dragon God Lord would probably move out overnight for fear that Lu Qingshan would change his mind.

Marquis Silvermoon quickly expressed his gratitude.

The Ganwu Country Lord waved his hand, signaling the three of them to leave first, leaving only Lu Qingshan in the main hall.

" Lu Qingshan... you're quite good, a rare talent. What reward do you desire? A star system, treasures, or something else...?"

"Your Majesty," Lu Qingshan bowed respectfully, his face filled with loyalty, "Serving Qingshan Majesty is my duty, and I need no reward."

What reward do you want?

Once Ling Yu grows up, he can provide whatever treasures she needs. There's no need for the Ganwu Country Lord's reward; a powerful backer is far more important than any treasure reward.

"Hehe..." The Ganwu Country Lord naturally saw through Lu Qingshan's thoughts at a glance. "I've read the secret manual you created. It seems to have some knowledge of the Time Origin Law. How much have you mastered? Show me."

"Your Majesty, please look..." Lu Qingshan waved his blue robe, and within the hall, the Time Law surged forth, creating orbs of light containing the power of the Time Origin Law.

The spheres of light were arranged in an extremely complex manner.

One, two... until the ninth one appeared, the great figure in the hall became more serious.

Thirteen, twelve, and so on, until thirty-six orbs of light appeared.

Within these spheres of light, countless illusory figures seemed to be displaying the secret sword techniques created by Lu Qingshan...

See here!

The Ganwu Country Lord on the high platform suddenly stood up... his eyes fixed on Lu Qingshan, as if he had seen a priceless treasure.

Lu Qingshan still had a trick up his sleeve. He had already mastered one of the last 72 Time Essence, but he hadn't revealed it.

He believed that what he had just shown was enough to make the Ganwu Country Lord take him seriously... But seeing the Ganwu Country Lord's performance, Lu Qingshan knew that he had still shown too much.

As soon as he withdrew his hand, the thirty-six orbs of light in front of him vanished like bubbles, Lu Qingshan bowed again.

"Great King, the Qingshan have been fully revealed..."
