Just as Yanzhu King was about to continue, a communication request from the Virtual Universe made him immediately stop what he was doing.

With a wave of his hand, the dozen or so beautiful maids who had been serving him tremblingly with fear withdrew from the spaceship's cockpit.

The Yanzhu King looked around, waved his hand to obliterate the corpses of the beautiful maids, and then straightened his own clothes.

Upon receiving the Virtual Universe call request, a light screen appeared in mid-air.

A towering figure stood on the other side of the light screen, exuding an imposing aura.

When the unruly Yanzhu King saw that figure, he became as docile as a mouse seeing a cat. "Father!"

The figure slowly turned around, his face bearing some resemblance to the Yanzhu King, but appearing more imposing and majestic.

"Have you done what I asked you to do?"

As a highly sought-after genius of the Human Race, even his teacher Lord of Void Gold, praised him, saying that he had the potential to reach that level. The opportunity to come into contact with Li Jing was not so easy to obtain.

He only learned about the Ganwu Country Lord's order for a batch of Zerg corpses after using some connections, and the delivery address was even temporarily changed from the Primal Secret Region to the Ganwu Secret Region.

That's why he sent his most beloved only son Yanzhu King, to personally oversee the delivery mission, all so that the Yanzhu King could get to know Li Jing and build a good relationship with him.

If he could gain Li Jing's friendship, then even if his son, the Yanzhu King, committed serious crimes in the future, there might be room for redemption.

Li Jing will become the Yanzhu King's biggest backer in the future, someone even stronger than himself.

However, he did not know that the explanation he had given him so many times had been completely messed up by the dandy King Nightmare.

Not only did they fail to build a good relationship, they ended up turning against each other.

Faced with his father Shi Huo Venerable, Yanzhu King felt somewhat guilty, but forced himself to say, "Father, everything is done!"

Upon hearing the Yanzhu King's reply, the Shi Huo Venerable on the other side of the light screen nodded in satisfaction.

This rebellious son of his has finally accomplished something.

"Very good. I'll transfer some Hunyuan Unit to you later. Be generous when you're friends with Li Jing. Don't be stingy when buying things. What you do now will bring you hundreds or thousands of times the return in the future. Understand?"

"His genius is something even I, his father, have never seen before!"

After leaving those words, Shi Huo Venerable hung up the communication.

The Yanzhu King's docile disguise vanished instantly, his eyes filled with violence and hatred, and he smashed all the expensive ornaments in the cockpit to pieces.

Genius, genius!

The Yanzhu King hates geniuses the most; he did so with the True Yan King back then, and he does so with Li Jing now.

[Ding! Your account ending in WST3036 at the Universe First Bank has recently experienced a large transaction, with 10 trillion Hunyuan Unit credited to your account.]

Just as the Zhu King was still not satisfied after smashing things and was about to call in his maid to give her a good beating, the friendship funds given by Shi Huo Venerable arrived.

A full 10 trillion Hunyuan Unit, equivalent to one Treasure Points.

Of course, the exchange can only be done from top to bottom, and there's no way to reverse it, but it's still more substantial than the entire fortune of many King-level Immortal.

Although Shi Huo Venerable Dotes on his only son, the resources he has invested in him far exceed the level of a Treasure Points.

But this is the first time that money has been transferred so generously directly to the Yanzhu King's account.

Upon seeing the large number of Hunyuan Unit deposited into his account, Yanzhu King lost his desire to continue smashing things and venting his anger. This amount of money was enough for him to live a life of luxury for a long time.

Use it to buy things and build a good relationship with Li Jing?

Don't even think about it!

This is his money, his money!

On the other side, Shi Huo Venerable, who had just disconnected from the Virtual Universe communication, burst into laughter.

He wore a smile all day long.

When a familiar Universe Venerable asked him for the reason, Shi Huo Venerable simply smiled without saying a word, looking mysterious.

Just kidding, how could I let others know about this? What if they followed suit?

There are very few venerable figures who have thought of this level and have the ability and opportunity to put it into action.

If too many people follow suit, then the favor done to Li Jing will become worthless.

The reaction of Shi Huo Venerable left many people puzzled, and they could only attribute it to a breakthrough in his own strength or secret techniques.

Or perhaps they've found some incredible treasure.

Or perhaps his son, the Zhu King, finally stopped being such a spoiled brat and troublemaker.

Unlike the Nightmare King who was so angry that he smashed him everywhere, Li Jing didn't take this dude to heart at all.

After casually shooing away the flies, he returned to his palace and entered the World Ring containing the World Lord Level Zerg Mother Emperor Latisi, whom he had enslaved.

In the center of the continent within the World Ring, a towering Cloud-Touching Vine, seemingly capable of blotting out the sky, takes root.

With Li Jing Jingyuan continuously receiving a portion of the resources he obtained through card draws.

The once underdeveloped and malnourished Cloud-Touching Vine has now reached the World Lord Level Nine and has 360 main vines.

With sufficient resources, we can always be ready to challenge for Immortal in the most perfect form.

Once successful, it will immediately rival a typical Initial King Immortal. With its massive divine body, it can even briefly trap Immortal at the Peak King.

Beside the massive Cloud-Touching Vine stood a Zerg Mother Nest with a diameter of over 800 meters, covered with countless pits that could trigger trypophobia in anyone who saw it.

Directly in front of the Zerg Mother Nest stands the Zerg Mother Emperor Latisi, who is over 12 meters tall, has an exquisite appearance, and possesses a pair of transparent wings.

At this moment, Latisi bowed to Li Jing and said, "Latisi greets Master."

"No need for formalities." Li Jing waved his hand casually, then pointed to the mountain of Zerg he had just moved in.

"Latisi, see if this is enough for you to raise a million-strong army of World Lord."

Latisi's eyes were filled with excitement. "Master, that's enough, absolutely enough!"

"With so many Zerg, even if Latisi advances to the Immortal Level, it would be enough to spawn an elite Immortal squad."

Li Jing nodded in satisfaction. In the original storyline, Luo Feng only purchased 1,000 units of Zerg corpses, which was enough for his Mother Emperor to nurture a million- World Lord.

The Ganwu Country Lord immediately ordered tens of thousands of Zerg corpses for him.

We can't use it all, we simply can't use it all!

Once Latisi's Zerg Legion is fully formed, her offensive capabilities will be able to threaten even the King-level Immortal.

In many situations, there's no need to hide under the protection of the Space-Escape Silk; instead, you can directly crush the opponent.

The advancement of Cloud-Touching Vine also needs to be put on the agenda; after all, it was a partner who grew up with him from the beginning.

Once we arrive in Chaos City, we'll first check what materials are needed for the most perfect upgrade plan.

Then check how many of these you've already achieved through card draws, and use points or Hunyuan Unit to make up for the rest.

At that time, before his combat power rivals that of King-level Immortal, he will have another method at his disposal.

Even if it's no longer needed in the future, leaving it on Earth can still protect the planet and deter some petty villains.

Oh, right, I haven't had time to kill Panxi, who's at the top of the Must-Eat List yet. I'll have to make time to go there sometime.

Hmm, thinking about it carefully, there's quite a lot to do on this trip back to the Ganwu Universe Country.
