After Wu Yifan left the Wu Family to gain experience outside, the third generation of the Wu Family also successively started families and careers, bringing Wu Hao more than ten great-grandchildren. Unfortunately, no new Destined Child appeared; the best was only Top-Grade Spiritual Root.
But for the current Wu Hao, it was already enough to use.
And time was like flowing water; one could not grasp it by reaching out, and twenty years passed silently.
In twenty years, the cultivation of the Wu Family's current thirty-plus members, coupled with the feedback from Wu Yifan, this Destined Child, gaining experience outside, allowed Wu Hao to break through a small realm almost every month.
Twenty years passed, and Wu Hao's cultivation smoothly crossed the Saint level, reaching Supreme Peak, just a tiny bit away from breaking through to Quasi-Emperor.
And today was the day Wu Hao was promoted to Quasi-Emperor.
After breaking through to Saint, one could rely on the Saint power within the body to open up a Small World. Currently, Wu Hao was breaking through to Quasi-Emperor within his Small World. Otherwise, with his foundation and the terror of the Heavenly Emperor Myriad Dao Scripture, breaking through to Quasi-Emperor would likely be known throughout the entire Xuantian Realm.
Wu Hao did not want to be too high-profile right now, so he stayed in the Small World and broke through to Quasi-Emperor.
"This, is this the strength of a Quasi-Emperor?"
As a rumbling vibration came from within his body, Wu Hao's aura became increasingly terrifying, as if it had reached a limit. In an instant, everything within the entire Small World seemed to freeze.
And by the time Wu Hao opened his eyes, he had already broken through to Quasi-Emperor.
Wu Hao felt that with his current strength, a casual, light punch would be enough to destroy the entire Sunset City, or even include Sunset City and a small half of the Southern Region. Although Wu Hao might have overestimated, it was enough to illustrate the power of a Quasi-Emperor.
Especially according to Wu Hao's understanding, there were basically no Great Emperors on the surface in the Xuantian Realm now. The Xuantian Realm seemed to have been subjected to some kind of curse; the last Great Emperor appeared a million years ago.
Even the four super forces in the Xuantian Realm now only had Quasi-Emperors holding down the fort. Of course, with their foundation, even without Great Emperor powerhouses, they could still put up a fight if they encountered a Great Emperor.
This was because only forces that had produced a Great Emperor and possessed an Emperor Weapon could be called super forces. And Emperor Weapons were extremely terrifying; they could allow a Quasi-Emperor wielding an Emperor Weapon to contend with a Great Emperor.
"With my current strength, I still cannot be too high-profile. I'll talk about it after breaking through to the invincible realm."
Wu Hao thought to himself, making up his mind. He decided that he could only be a bit high-profile after breaking through to the Ascension realm. He just didn't know how things were on his wife's side.
Thinking of Su Qiaoran, Wu Hao sighed helplessly. It seemed he would have to find a time to go look for Su Qiaoran, but at least he had to protect the Wu Family first.
Currently, within the Wu Family, Wu Rulong was the strongest, having already broken through to the early stage of Void Refinement. Although he was still too weak compared to Wu Hao, he could be considered invincible in the vicinity of the small Sunset City.
But in the next second, Wu Hao's brows couldn't help but furrow, and he vanished from the Small World with a whoosh.
And at this moment, in front of the Wu Family's gate, a figure covered in blood was walking step by step towards the Wu Family. His aura was extremely weak, as if he would collapse in the next second.
"Great grandpa, I'm sorry, I failed the Wu Family's glory."
That figure looked towards the Wu Family, his face full of shame, and then he could no longer hold on and collapsed directly.
Just as he was about to hit the ground, Wu Hao appeared before him in time and steadily supported him.
Looking at Wu Yifan's miserable state, Wu Hao's expression was extremely calm, but the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
He didn't expect that his great-grandson would suffer such hardship just by going out for some experience.
One must know that his grandson was a Destined Child! If he wasn't a Destined Child, wouldn't he have already perished?
"No matter who harmed my grandson, I will make them pay a bloody price!"
Without time to think further, Wu Hao used his own power to help Wu Yifan stabilize his internal condition so it wouldn't worsen. After doing all this, he took Wu Yifan back towards the Wu Family.
At the same time, in a large mountain extremely far from the Wu Family, several figures wearing black robes whose appearances could not be seen revealed a hint of angry aura.
"Careless, I didn't expect this kid actually had something like a high-level teleportation talisman."
"If we can't bring him back, we won't be able to explain ourselves to the Holy Son."
"What are you afraid of? Although that kid escaped using a Space teleportation talisman, he was still severely injured by us. He's just a mere Saint; where can he escape to? In short, let's go look for him first!"
They were the ones who severely injured Wu Yifan. As for why they severely injured Wu Yifan, it was precisely because they discovered that Wu Yifan possessed the Ancient Sacred Body by chance.
One must know that the Ancient Sacred Body was not only famous throughout the world for its extremely powerful combat strength, but most importantly, the Saint blood of the Ancient Sacred Body had a magical effect of breaking through realms for some cultivators. Therefore, they chose to attack Wu Yifan without hesitation.
But they didn't expect that Wu Yifan, this Saint, could escape from the hands of their three Saint Kings. If the Holy Son found out that the Ancient Sacred Body had escaped from their hands, their fate wouldn't be good at all.
Thinking of this, the three couldn't help but shiver, and then they chased in the direction Wu Yifan had escaped.
At this time, within the Wu Family, after learning that Wu Yifan was severely injured and near death, the second and third generations of the Wu Family all came to Wu Yifan's bedside. At this time, Wu Hao had also used the medical skill feedback from his investment in his granddaughter Xueying to stabilize Wu Yifan's injuries.
Everything that followed would be known once Wu Yifan woke up.
And Wu Qiankun stood by Wu Yifan's bedside with an extremely gloomy expression, while Bai Yu You held her son's hand and sobbed.
"Grandpa, what exactly is going on?"
Wu Qiankun took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then looked at his Grandpa, Wu Hao.
Wu Hao shook his head and spoke.
"I don't know either. Only when Yi Fan wakes up will we know who severely injured him."
"Damn it, if I find out who dared to severely injure my son, I will definitely cut him into a thousand pieces!"
Wu Qiankun said this extremely angrily as a Father, but Wu Hao's heart felt a bit strange.
Wu Qiankun was only at the early stage of Soul Transformation now, while Wu Yifan's realm was clear at a glance in Wu Hao's eyes: early stage Saint.
Therefore, those who could severely injure Wu Yifan to this extent were at least Great Saints or even Saint Kings. Even if Wu Qiankun cultivated for another hundred years, he might not be the opponent.
But Wu Hao did not say it. The matter of the great-grandson should still be resolved by the great-grandson. This was Wu Yifan's inner demon, and only by resolving the inner demon could he break through to a stronger realm.
