Inside the World Ring carried by the avatar.
Ender, who had shrunk his body to over a hundred meters, was looking down at Gu, who was lying on the ground. The Tier 3 Force Armor he wore was intact, but his face was stained with a lot of blood.
"It's a good thing I brought him into the World Ring in time. Otherwise, with his Stellar Rank physical quality, even with Mullie's Immortal Divine Power protection, he would have been torn to shreds at high speed."
Ender thought to himself, "Even with my current physical quality, to traverse the Universe with my Physical Body, I probably need to reach World Master Level."
Traversing the Universe with one's Physical Body is usually something only Immortals can do, because flying at sub-light speed requires strong physical quality. However, powerful races can also traverse the Universe with their Physical Body at World Master Level.
Although Gu was brought into the World Ring in time, his body still suffered some injuries during the short high-speed flight. However, Ender had treasures for cultivating plant life, which could also be used as healing treasures.
"Hmm…"
Just then, Gu, whose body had recovered from its injuries, woke up. "What happened to me?"
After waking up, Gu looked at the empty surroundings and muttered to himself, "Where is this place?"
"This is my World Ring."
"Huh?!" Hearing the voice of the person he admired, Gu's spirit was immediately invigorated, and he exclaimed, "Ancestor Eleven!"
Seeing that the voice came from above, Gu quickly looked up and was shocked!
Because when he looked up, he saw an huge face, looking down at him from above, and the appearance of this huge face was exactly Ancestor Eleven, whom he admired!
"Ancestor Eleven…" Gu's face showed a look of shock, and he said in an unbelievable tone, "Your body?"
"This is my true body," Ender transmitted. "What you saw before was just an Puppet I used for activities."
"Avatar?" Gu expressed confusion, somewhat wanting to ask Ender why his body had become so tall, but after thinking about it, he didn't ask.
"The true body is inconvenient to move, so it's just a substitute that was created." Ender briefly explained, then asked, "By the way, how is your physical condition now?"
"Physical condition?" Gu heard this and quickly used his Spiritual Force to investigate himself, finding that although his body was intact, judging from the bloodstains on him, he seemed to have suffered some injuries before.
After investigating his physical condition, Gu honestly replied, "Ancestor Eleven, my body is fine, but it seems I suffered some injuries before."
"It's good that you're fine." Ender nodded imperceptibly, then said, "Something happened outside. You should stay in the World Ring for now. I'll send you out after I've handled it."
"Yes." Gu nodded in response, but he was very curious in his heart. "What exactly happened outside? Why did Ancestor Eleven put me in the World Ring?"
Gu guessed in his heart, "I remember that two Immortals from the Lorgar Tribe came to visit. Could it be that they caused it?"
...Outside Kuka Planet.
In the dark starry sky, countless architectural metal debris floated. Marquis Zhuhan covered the surroundings with Immortal Divine Power, and soon he discovered a dark red prismatic spaceship approaching in the distance.
"This spaceship…could it be?"
With a guess in his heart, Marquis Zhuhan's Immortal Divine Power immediately spread out, probing the situation inside the spaceship.
"Haha!" Marquis Zhuhan laughed, "A Genius like Ender is indeed not that easy to fall. He survived even when pursued by a King-level Immortal."
He had just tried to probe the spaceship with Immortal Divine Power, but before his Divine Power could penetrate, he sensed Mullie's aura, which made him realize that Ender was not dead!
So, Marquis Zhuhan transmitted to the spaceship, "Your Highness Ender, I am Marquis Zhuhan of the Lorgar Tribe."
...Inside the Shadow Dragon.
After Ender reported the assassination attempt to the Virtual Universe Company, he ordered the spaceship to return to Kuka Planet.
But just as the spaceship started, an invisible shockwave swept over, dispersing the dust gathered in the starry sky!
Inside the Shadow Dragon, a top-tier F-class alloy, Ender also felt a slight tremor from the shockwave, which made him say in a deep voice, "What is this?"
After observing in the Virtual Universe simulation that the distant starry sky was also affected by the shockwave, Mullie replied, "Judging from the affected area, it is suspected to be an Immortal's self-detonation."
"Self-detonation!"
Hearing this, Ender immediately recalled the scene when he was assassinated on Titan God Star. What he saw when he emerged from the World Ring at that time was a hellish scene destroyed by the self-detonation of an Immortal.
Even the sturdy Titan God Star in the Universe Secret Realm formed a hellish scene after being self-detonated by an Immortal. Could his home, Kuka Planet, withstand the power of a self-detonation?
"Father, Mother, Grandfather, and Fourteen, they are all still on Kuka Planet!"
Thinking of this, Ender only felt panic in his heart, somewhat at a loss.
"Your Highness, your hometown is fine."
Mullie gently tapped his finger, and the very small green planet in the distance magnified. From the Virtual Universe simulation, it could be seen that Kuka Planet was still intact.
"It's good that it's fine!"
As the saying goes, concern leads to confusion. When Ender saw the intact green planet in the Virtual Universe simulation, his tense heart immediately relaxed.
The Royce Family territory has protective devices. As long as the planet is not destroyed, the territory is generally fine.
"It's good that it's fine…"
After muttering again, Ender was silent for a moment, then asked, "Mullie, do you think I shouldn't have come back?"
"Why would Your Highness say that?" Mullie asked.
"The alien race's assassination target is me. If I hadn't returned to Kuka Planet, would Kuka Planet have been very safe?" Ender murmured.
"Your Highness, the alien race will not give up on their arrangements on Kuka Planet just because you don't return to Kuka Planet," Mullie said. "After all, that is your hometown, and you will return one day."
"Yes, Kuka Planet is my hometown." Hearing this, Ender gave a self-deprecating smile, "I will return one day."
Unless Kuka Planet is like Earth, a planet whose value is comparable to a Pinnacle Arcana Treasure, protected and controlled strictly, Kuka Planet will inevitably be infiltrated and arranged. Perhaps there are already Divine Power tokens of alien Soul slaves on the planet now.
"After this matter is resolved, I plan to go to the Ganwu Starfield." Ender said in a deep voice, "Unless necessary, I will not return again in the future."
The sudden assassination gave him a wake-up call. If he remained on Kuka Planet, it would likely bring disaster to his hometown, and his parents and Family would also die because of him!
This assassination was only initiated by a Marquis-level Immortal. If the alien race directly sent a King-level Immortal, or even an Invincible existence below a Universe Venerable like an Immortal Zerg Mother Nest, Kuka Planet would definitely be affected by the assassination, with a high probability of becoming a pile of wreckage and ruins.
"To ignore the alien race's assassination, one must at least have King Level Immortal strength." Ender pondered in his heart, "Which means I have to wait until I become an Immortal before I can live on Kuka Planet for a long time."
With his opportunities, once he breaks through to Immortal, he will definitely become an extreme existence among King-level Immortal, and it will be easy for him to become Invincible King after accumulating for a period of time.
Furthermore, at the Immortal Rank, he can reach a Life Gene level of over eight thousand times, which can also rival an elementary Universe Venerable. As for higher, he cannot do it, because he does not have treasures like the Robbery Armor.
However, becoming an Immortal is not that easy, especially for a Genius like him with Heaven-Defying opportunities!
"Your Highness, there is Immortal Divine Power scanning the spaceship!" Mullie's voice suddenly sounded.
"Your Highness Ender, I am Marquis Zhuhan of the Lorgar Tribe." At this moment, a man's voice, transmitted through Immortal Divine Power, entered Ender's mind.
Ordering the spaceship to stop, Ender asked in a deep voice, "Marquis Zhuhan, shouldn't you explain why Marquis Tian Yi wanted to assassinate me?"
"Your Highness Ender, I am very sorry for this assassination incident." Marquis Zhuhan apologized, "And Marquis Tian Yi was Soul enslaved by an alien race. This is something I never expected. He has now been forced by me to self-detonate and die. Your Highness can rest assured about this."
Ender listened, and thought to himself, "Self-detonated? So that previous shockwave was caused by Marquis Tian Yi's self-detonation power."
He also knew that the possibility of Marquis Tian Yi being Soul enslaved was extremely high. Although there were internal struggles within the Human Race, and even some Geniuses fell in internal struggles.
But his identity was different. Not only was he a Prodigy-level Genius that appeared once every tens of millions of eras, but he was also a Personal Disciple of a Universe Master. Even if someone in the race disliked him, they would not act against him at the cost of offending a Universe Master.
"This matter cannot be definitively judged yet. Whether it's Soul enslaved is still hard to say." Ender said coldly.
"Your Highness Ender, this time I and Marquis Tian Yi came to Kuka Planet to explain why our Clan's World Master made things difficult for and threatened the Royce Family Clan Chief." Marquis Zhuhan explained, "To show our sincerity, we even imprisoned that World Master."
"Before, I couldn't understand why that World Master would do such a thing." Marquis Zhuhan said in a deep voice, "Now that I think about it, this must have been secretly instigated by Marquis Tian Yi, and it was also Marquis Tian Yi who proactively requested to come to the Ganwu Universe Country to express apologies."
Ender listened, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Since Marquis Tian Yi proactively requested it, then why did you, Marquis Zhuhan, come along?"
"I came under the order of our Clan's Ancestor, King Hongzhi, to invite the Royce Family to become one of the main branches of our Lorgar Tribe." Marquis Zhuhan sighed softly, "I think, after encountering Marquis Tian Yi's assassination, Your Highness will not let the Royce Family join our Lorgar Tribe."
"the Royce Family has the Bloodline of the Lorgar Tribe, but we will not become a member of the Lorgar Tribe because of it, because the Royce Family is unique." Ender said in a deep voice.
This was the result of the Family's discussion. Regardless of whether the assassination happened or not, their decision would not change.
"I understand. I will relay the Royce Family's decision to the Clan's Ancestor." Marquis Zhuhan said, "Your Highness Ender, can this assassination be temporarily delayed from being reported to the Virtual Universe Company?"
"I have already reported the assassination to the Virtual Universe Company. As for the outcome, it will be decided by the Virtual Universe Company." Ender said.
"Already reported?"
Marquis Zhuhan's heart sank upon receiving such a reply. Although he knew the possibility of it being reported was high, he was still somewhat worried after receiving a confirmed reply, fearing that the Lorgar Tribe would suffer huge losses.
Marquis Zhuhan said, "Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will now report Marquis Tian Yi's assassination of Your Highness to our Lorgar Tribe's Ancestor—King Hongzhi."
After hearing that the Ancestor in Marquis Zhuhan's mouth was King Hongzhi, Mullie quickly transmitted, "Your Highness, this King Hongzhi is not simple."
"Oh?" Ender asked, "How not simple?"
"I once heard a Marquis-level Immortal in our Clan say that King Hongzhi is a very ancient King-level Immortal, and has a very good relationship with our Clan's Saint Ancestor." Mullie replied.
"Your Clan's Saint Ancestor?" Ender was puzzled.
"It is the strongest in our Werewolf branch, Venerable Vulture Wind!" When mentioning the name of Venerable Vulture Wind, Mullie was quite proud.
"Venerable Vulture Wind." Ender felt it sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
Mullie said, "Our Clan's Saint Ancestor, Venerable Vulture Wind, is also an Overlord-level existence among the many Universe Venerables. This is also why our Werewolf Race is a powerful branch among the many Human Race branches."
"I remember now, Venerable Vulture Wind is an Universe Overlord-level expert who appeared in the original work. He received the complete Legacy of the Ancestor God Sect's Wind-Catching God General, is one of the reserve God Generals of the Wind-Catching God General, and once saved Luo Feng."
After Mullie's reminder, Ender remembered where he had heard the name of Venerable Vulture Wind.
However, he was somewhat puzzled. A King-level Immortal having a close relationship with a Universe Overlord-level expert, the difference in status between the two was not insignificant!
...Virtual Universe, Thunder Island, inside an ancient palace.
After a wisp of Marquis Zhuhan's consciousness entered the Virtual Universe, he headed straight for the palace of the Clan's Ancestor, King Hongzhi.
Arriving deep within the palace, Marquis Zhuhan bowed to the ancient existence sitting on the throne and said, "Ancestor!"
"What is it?" The ancient existence on the throne slightly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of half-closed vertical pupils.
The ancient existence was over four meters tall, with the appearance of a handsome young man, but there was a hint of old age between his brows, as if he were a dying old man.
Marquis Zhuhan said with a heavy heart, "Marquis Tian Yi was Soul enslaved by an alien race."
King Hongzhi, the ancient existence sitting on the throne, sighed softly and said, "Soul enslaved, huh."
"Ancestor." Marquis Zhuhan said urgently, "Marquis Tian Yi was Soul enslaved. When he encountered Ender, he directly used Divine Kingdom Teleportation to bring a King-level Immortal to assassinate him…"
Gently raising his hand to interrupt Marquis Zhuhan, King Hongzhi softly asked, "Did Ender fall?"
"No, although that alien King-level Immortal pursued him, Ender did not fall." Marquis Zhuhan replied.
"As long as he didn't fall, it's easy to handle." King Hongzhi said somewhat distractedly, "Is he unwilling to join our Lorgar Tribe?"
"Yes." Marquis Zhuhan nodded.
"If he's unwilling, then so be it." King Hongzhi gently shook his head, then closed his eyes.
"But Ancestor!" Marquis Zhuhan said, "Ender's assassination by Marquis Tian Yi has a great impact on our Lorgar Tribe. He has already reported it to the Virtual Universe Company, and perhaps…"
"Just do what needs to be done." King Hongzhi still had his eyes closed and said softly, "The Virtual Universe Company's higher-ups will handle it."
Marquis Zhuhan pressed, "What about Ender?"
"Give him one million Mixed-yuan Units as compensation." King Hongzhi said indifferently, "Alright, you may go."
Marquis Zhuhan still wanted to say something, but facing the Ancestor, he had nothing more to say, so he could only nod and say, "Yes…"
After he left, a long sigh echoed in the palace, "It's already the eleventh one…"
