"Since I've already broken through to Great Emperor, it's time to go find my wife."
After breaking through to Great Emperor, Wu Hao's first thought was of his wife. After all, their feelings for several years weren't fake, and he couldn't possibly be alone for his entire life.
Therefore, both emotionally and logically, he had to go find Su Qiaoran and bring her back.
However, before leaving, it was essential to properly arrange everything for the Wu Family. Their base couldn't be wiped out while he was away.
Soon, Wu Hao called Wu Rulong over. After hearing that Wu Hao was going to bring his mother back, Wu Rulong's expression also changed, becoming extremely complex. Although he knew his mother hadn't intentionally left them back then, life without his mother for so many years had caused him considerable pain.
But what could he do? As Su Qiaoran's son, he couldn't just ignore her situation.
"I understand, father. Go ahead. I will take good care of the Wu Family's affairs."
Over the years, under Wu Hao's guidance, the Wu Clan Commerce behind the Wu Family had also become the largest commerce in the entire Southern Region. Wu Rulong had also become a peak Tribulation Passing Stage expert, just half a step away from breaking through to Saint.
Of course, because the Wu Family was willing to spend money, they had invited three early-stage Saint King experts to oversee the Wu Clan Commerce. Coupled with the backup plans Wu Hao had left behind, even a Quasi-Emperor wouldn't be able to make a move against the Wu Family.
"Okay, I will bring your mother back as quickly as possible."
After Wu Hao finished speaking, he set off and left the Wu Family.
As for how to find Su Qiaoran, Wu Hao actually didn't have much of a clue. After all, when he was with Su Qiaoran back then, she was in a state of amnesia, and he didn't know her origins.
And after regaining her memory, Su Qiaoran, for the sake of Wu Hao and Wu Rulong's safety, didn't tell them her origins. She only gave them some resources sufficient for cultivating to the Nascent Soul Stage before leaving.
"However, since my wife said she was framed and forced out, it should be something like internal power struggles within a faction."
"So, I should go to the factions in the Southern Region or Central Region and investigate if there's anyone named Su Qiaoran."
Wu Hao quickly had an idea in his mind. He also regretted that Su Qiaoran hadn't left even a little something behind back then. Otherwise, as long as he had some of Su Qiaoran's personal clothing or hair, Wu Hao could directly search for her based on her aura.
But it was too late to regret now. He could only take things one step at a time. However, with his Great Emperor level cultivation, finding Su Qiaoran would only take a few years.
Meanwhile, in the Central Region, within the Myriad Flowers Holy Land.
As one of the four major super forces, the Myriad Flowers Holy Land was naturally immensely powerful. Its Old Ancestor of Myriad Flowers was even a Quasi-Emperor Peak expert. Coupled with the help of an Emperor Weapon, they could even contend against an early-stage Great Emperor.
However, the position of Saintess in the Myriad Flowers Holy Land was vacant. Su Qiaoran back then was one of the Saintess candidates, which was why she was framed and ended up in the Southern Region, where she became husband and wife with Wu Hao.
After recovering her memory, Su Qiaoran returned to the Myriad Flowers Holy Land. Now, after so many years, she had become the most likely candidate to become the Saintess, relying on her powerful talent and iron-blooded methods.
But at this moment, Su Qiaoran was sitting by the window in her pavilion, looking at the blue sky outside. Her expression was a little dazed, and she muttered to herself.
"Husband, I wonder how you and our child are doing now. But rest assured, once I become the Saintess, I will come and bring you and our child here. By then, our family will be reunited."
Currently, Su Qiaoran has already broken through to Sage Peak, just one step away from becoming a Great Saint expert.
Currently, besides Su Qiaoran, there are three other Saintess candidates in the Myriad Flowers Holy Land. Two of them are still at the peak of the Void Refinement Stage, so they are essentially out of the running.
Only one candidate remains, who is at the late Sage Stage, named Murong Xue.
But at this moment, Murong Xue's expression in her training ground was extremely gloomy.
She hadn't expected that after she had schemed to kick Su Qiaoran out, that wretched woman would still have a chance to return and even successfully surpass her, becoming the most likely candidate for Saintess.
But she quickly thought of something, and a hint of mockery couldn't help but appear on Murong Xue's face.
"It's just that, Su Qiaoran, what you didn't expect is that the Holy Lord and I are father and daughter, right? Just wait, I will make another move and eliminate you. This way, my becoming the Saintess will be a matter of course."
What no one knew was that Murong Xue, as one of the Saintess candidates, was the daughter of Murong Huang, the Holy Lord of the Myriad Flowers Holy Land. However, the Myriad Flowers Holy Land had always chosen the Saintess based on talent, not status.
The Saintess of the Myriad Flowers Holy Land is chosen every hundred years, and the requirement for participation is being under a hundred years old. There are only ten years left until the next election, and within these ten years, she must eliminate Su Qiaoran. Otherwise, Su Qiaoran will definitely snatch away her position as Saintess.
She, Murong Xue, would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.
Soon, Murong Xue thought of something, and the expression on her face couldn't help but turn fierce.
"I remember that the Grand Vast Secret Realm will open in a year. At that time, all the disciples of the Myriad Flowers Holy Land will enter it. Su Qiaoran, I want to see how you survive in the hands of three Great Saint Peak experts!"
"Hehehehehehe!"
Thinking of herself about to become the Saintess of the Myriad Flowers Holy Land, Murong Xue couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Su Qiaoran didn't know that she had already been schemed against by Murong Xue. At this moment, she was fully focused on breaking through to the Great Saint Realm. However, the difficulty of breaking through to the Great Saint Realm was extremely high. Even with her Jipin Linggen Top-GradeSpiritual Root, it would take a long time to complete the breakthrough.
"Is this the Central Region? It's indeed much more prosperous than the Southern Region."
Wu Yifan passed through numerous obstacles and finally arrived in the Central Region.
After arriving in the Central Region, Wu Yifan couldn't help but be surprised. This was his first time in the Central Region, and he hadn't expected the spiritual energy concentration in the Central Region to be nearly double that of the Southern Region.
No wonder more powerful cultivators wanted to come to the Central Region.
However, at this moment, Wu Yifan wasn't thinking about this much. What he was thinking about was how to quickly become stronger so he could get revenge on the three Saint King experts who had severely injured him back then.
Currently, Wu Yifan could fight against a Saint King with just his physical strength. But if all three of them attacked together, Wu Yifan might not be their match.
Therefore, Wu Yifan was thinking of waiting until he had lifted the restrictions on the Ancient Sacred Body to the eighth level and possessed the strength to slaughter Supremes before making a move.
Moreover, Wu Yifan wasn't a reckless person. He naturally thought that the three Saint Kings might have powerful forces behind them. So, to be safe, it would be safer to make a move after his physical body had broken through to the eighth level and his cultivation had also advanced to the Peak Stage Saint King Realm.
