"I thank you for your kindness, Master, but I was merely informing you of my presence."

"In my eyes, that Yanzhu King is nothing special. He's just a guy who only became King Rank because of his Venerable father. I can easily surpass him in the future."

"Even his father, Shi Huo Venerable, given enough time, wouldn't be a match for me."

Li Jing smiled and said to the Ganwu Country Lord.

"Good, my disciple Ganwu is indeed ambitious! You're right, while the Shi Huo Venerable's performance was amazing, he's far inferior to you!"

"By the way, do you remember Molo, the one who plotted against you during the Demon Mountain training mission, but who turned out to be a blessing in disguise and helped you obtain the Demon Sound Divine General Inheritance?"

"Although this person was killed on the spot by you, my disciple, the mistakes he made cannot be easily forgiven."

"I have already submitted this matter to the Virtual Universe Company, removing this person from the records of the Primal Secret Region and stripping him of all preferential treatment for his relatives and friends."

"By the way, his teacher is also a King Rank of the Virtual Universe Company lineage, the One King Yuliang, whose strength is almost Invincible King."

"After being personally questioned by his master, he deeply regretted his failure to teach his disciple and made partial compensation to you. The items are on their way and should arrive at the Ganwu Secret Region soon. Please remember to sign for them when they arrive."

Li Jing was deeply moved; he had completely forgotten about Molo.

After all, everything was within his calculations; the other party was merely a tool he had chosen to find the location of the Demon Sound Divine General Inheritance.

After hacking the other person to pieces on the spot, they let the matter drop.

Unexpectedly, the teacher who only heard about his account took it to heart. Not only did he use the Virtual Universe Company to give Molo a final verdict on his life and expose his reputation, but he also revoked all the hidden benefits that had been applied to his relatives and friends.

Although Molo was born an orphan and even fought his way out of Death Soldier Training Camp, he was later adopted and given the surname Mo Clan.

You must have made quite a few friends and relatives during your upbringing.

These people had all received some preferential treatment because of their status as members of the Molo Primal Secret Region Member, but now none of that is happening anymore.

By now, he probably hates Molo to the core, even though he's definitely dead.

It's not enough to physically eliminate the enemy; we must also eradicate them from the social sphere.

He and the God of the Ganwu Country Lord are truly wicked.

One committed murder, the other buried the grave.

But he liked it; what was the point of not thoroughly punishing those who had offended them?

That's a blatant betrayal of oneself!

Molo's teacher, the King Yuliang, who was nearly Invincible King.

In the original storyline, he showed extreme favoritism towards Molo, even when Luo Feng's teacher True Yan King, couldn't contact Luo Feng and personally came to demand an explanation.

Give them a good thrashing.

To distort the facts and claim that Luo Feng ambushed Molo is utterly shameless.

Under pressure from Master Ganwu, High Universe Venerable, he could only swallow his pride, admit his mistake, and offer compensation.

Judging from Teacher Ganwu's tone, the other party must have suffered a major financial loss.

It's so great to have a teacher who protects you! My decision to become the disciple of the Ganwu Country Lord was absolutely the right one!

"Your Highness, Lord Thirteen and Marquis Mingda have arrived!" Butler Alice said respectfully to Li Jing.

After leaving the temple of the Ganwu Master and returning to his own palace.

Li Jing extended an invitation through the Virtual Universe to the Thirteen Divine Generals and Marquis Mingda, with whom he had previously interacted, inviting them to visit his palace.

After breaking through to the Domain Lord Level, he returned to the Ganwu Secret Region intending to see his old friends.

The former had personally picked him up on Qiu Long Star before and had also deterred a group of petty people who coveted him at the time.

Later, after he arrived at the Ganwu Secret Region, he was quite dedicated and dutiful. When he became Master Ganwu's disciple, his attitude became even more respectful.

He still remembers that friendship.

The latter, Marquis Mingda, did not have a close relationship with him, but when he brought Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God to the Ganwu Secret Region, the other party gave them great respect by arranging for them to be treated as Four-Leaf Student.

Seeing this, Li Jing naturally reciprocated and gave him something in return.

Now that we're back in the Ganwu Secret Region, let's just invite them all over.

A moment later, in the palace's reception room, Li Jing, the Thirteen Divine Generals, and Marquis Mingda sat around a small table.

The table was laden with all sorts of rare and precious fruits, fine wines, and other delicacies.

A rough estimate puts its value at no less than tens of thousands of Hunyuan Unit.

Even Marquis Mingda, an Immortal who was actually only at the peak of the Immortal Army Lord Peak and had only managed to obtain the title of Marquis due to the depletion of talent in the Ganwu Universe Country, was astonished.

He thought to himself that Li Jing was indeed generous; even a simple gathering could be so extravagant.

The Thirteen Divine Generals were, after all, one of the Eighteen Divine Generals under the command of the Ganwu Country Lord, and had long possessed the true strength to King Rank.

Marquis Mingda wasn't as surprised by this; given Li Jing's status and position, it wasn't unusual for him to put on such a feast.

At this moment, he became even more curious as to why Li Jing had returned to the Ganwu Secret Region from the Primal Secret Region.

Compared to Marquis Mingda, he was closer to Li Jing and directly expressed his doubts.

In response to the Thirteen Divine Generals' inquiries, Li Jing smiled and said, "I have broken through to the Domain Lord Level."

With the special Treasure, the Space-Escape Silk, on his person, even without active activation, its passive concealment effect was enough to make even a normal Universe Venerable appear invisible.

I can't discern Li Jing's true level of skill.

This is why neither the Yanzhu King nor the current Thirteen Divine Generals and Marquis Mingda were aware of Li Jing's strength or realm.

Upon hearing Li Jing's answer, the Thirteen Divine Generals and Marquis Mingda were all taken aback.

But after thinking about Li Jing's identity, he quickly calmed down.

While Virtual Universe Company invests heavily in training its core members of Universe Level Primal Secret Region Member, the Ganwu Secret Region lags far behind.

But don't forget, Li Jing's teacher Ganwu Country Lord, is here.

With a teacher of Universe Country Lord level personally instructing and providing corresponding resources, returning to the Ganwu Secret Region is no worse than the Primal Secret Region.

Moreover, after breaking through to the Domain Lord Level, the speed of Law Comprehension is significantly higher than that of the Universe Level. From this perspective, it is reasonable for Li Jing to break through to the Domain Lord Level.

"Thirteen, thanks to your care back on Qiu Long Star, in the Ganwu Secret Region, and during the Genius Battle, I'd like to offer you a toast."

Li Jing Thirteen Divine Generals.

"Your Highness is too kind. This is what Thirteen should do."

Seeing that Li Jing hadn't forgotten his previous gesture of goodwill, the Thirteen Divine Generals smiled even more broadly, quickly raised their wine cups to clink with Li Jing's, and then drank them down in one gulp.

With Li Jing's talent, it's only a matter of time before he becomes a ruler of the country.

With two Venerable Ones standing behind him, who among the Immortal Level would dare to provoke him? Who could possibly provoke him?

After clinking glasses with Thirteen, Li Jing turned to look at Marquis Mingda.

"Marquis Mingda, the arrangements for my clansmen were also thanks to you. I'd like to offer you a toast."

After respectfully clinking glasses with Li Jing, Marquis Mingda somewhat reservedly drank the wine in his cup.

After clinking glasses with Marquis Mingda, Li Jing said, "I heard that Marquis Mingda's Law Comprehension is still a little short of condensing Undying Body? Today, since Thirteen and I are both here, let's voice our doubts; perhaps we can find a solution."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Mingda's expression brightened. Could it be that His Highness Li Jing had specially arranged this gathering today to ask the Lord Thirteen to guide his Law Comprehension and help him truly Marquis?

The Lord Thirteen is a peerless expert with the true strength to be enfeoffed King Rank. If one can receive his full guidance, the chances of achieving true Marquis a marquis will be greatly increased.

Even if not, it's enough to prove that he's on Prince Li Jing's radar and has a memory of him.

Once His Highness Li Jing has achieved great success, will he ever forget him?
