Chapter 12: Searching for His Wife

"Now that I've broken through to Great Emperor, it's time to go find my wife."

After breaking through to Great Emperor, Wu Hao immediately thought of his wife. After all, their years of affection were not false, and he couldn't possibly live alone for the rest of his life.

So, both emotionally and rationally, he had to bring Su Qiaoran back.

But before leaving, he had to properly arrange everything for the Wu Family; he couldn't have their home base taken over while he was away.

Soon, Wu Hao called Wu Ru-Long over. Upon hearing that Wu Hao was going to bring his mother back, Wu Ru-Long's expression changed, becoming extremely complex. Although he knew his mother hadn't intentionally left them back then, living without a mother for so many years had caused him considerable pain.

But what could he do? As Su Qiaoran's son, he couldn't ignore her situation.

"I understand, Father. Go. I will take care of the Wu Family's affairs."

Over the years, under Wu Hao's guidance, the Wu Clan Commerce behind the Wu Family had become the largest commerce in the entire Southern Domain. Wu Ru-Long had also become a Peak Stage Undergoing Tribulation expert, just half a step away from breaking through to Saint.

Of course, because the Wu Family was willing to pay, they had invited three Early Stage Saint King Realm experts to guard the Wu Clan Commerce. Coupled with the contingency plans Wu Hao left behind, even a Quasi-Emperor would be unable to act against the Wu Family.

"Mm, I will bring your mother back as soon as possible."

After Wu Hao finished speaking, he set off and left the Wu Family.

As for how to find Su Qiaoran, Wu Hao didn't really have a clear idea. After all, when he first met Su Qiaoran, she was in a state of amnesia, and he didn't know her origins.

After her memory recovered, for the safety of Wu Hao and Wu Ru-Long, Su Qiaoran didn't tell them her origins. She just gave them some resources sufficient for Cultivation to the Nascent Soul Stage and then left.

"However, since my wife said she was framed, it should be a matter of internal power struggles within a faction."

"So, I'll go to the Southern Domain or Central Domain's factions and investigate if there's anyone named Su Qiaoran."

Wu Hao quickly made up his mind, regretting that Su Qiaoran hadn't left anything behind. Otherwise, if he had any of Su Qiaoran's personal belongings or hair, Wu Hao could have directly searched for her based on her aura.

But it was too late to regret now; he could only take 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 Domain, within the Wan Hua Holy Land.

As one of the four super factions, Wan Hua Holy Land was naturally incredibly powerful. The Wan Hua Old Ancestor within it possessed Quasi-Emperor Peak cultivation, and with the help of an Emperor Weapon, she could even contend with an Early Stage Great Emperor.

However, the position of Saintess in the Wan Hua Holy Land was vacant. Back then, Su Qiaoran was one of the Saintess candidates, which was why she was framed and ended up in the Southern Domain, marrying Wu Hao.

After recovering her memories, Su Qiaoran returned to the Wan Hua Holy Land. Now, after so many years, she had become the most likely candidate to become Saintess, relying on her powerful talent and iron-fisted methods.

But at this moment, Su Qiaoran was in her pavilion, sitting by the window, looking at the blue sky outside, her expression a little dazed as she murmured to herself.

"Husband, I wonder how you and our child are doing now. But don't worry, once I become Saintess, I will bring you and our child over, and then our family will be reunited."

Su Qiaoran had now broken through to Sage Peak, just one step away from becoming a Great Saint expert.

Currently, besides Su Qiaoran, there were three other Saintess candidates in the Wan Hua Holy Land. Two of them were still at Void Refining Peak, so they were essentially out of the running.

Only one Late Stage Saint candidate remained, named Murong Xue.

But at this moment, Murong Xue's expression in her Dao field was extremely gloomy.

She hadn't expected that after she schemed to kick Su Qiaoran out, that bitch Su Qiaoran would actually have a chance to return and even successfully surpass her, becoming the most likely candidate for Saintess.

But soon, she thought of something, and a sneer appeared on Murong Xue's face.

"It's just that you, Su Qiaoran, didn't realize that the Holy Lord and I are father and daughter, did you? Just wait, I will make another move and eliminate you. That way, my becoming Saintess will be legitimate."

What no one knew was that Murong Xue, one of the Saintess candidates, was the daughter of the Wan Hua Holy Land's Holy Lord, Murong Huang. This was because the Wan Hua Holy Land never chose its Saintess based on status, but on talent.

The Wan Hua Holy Land selected a Saintess every hundred years, and the condition for participation was to be under a hundred years old. There were only ten years left until the next election, and within those ten years, she absolutely had to kill Su Qiaoran, otherwise, Su Qiaoran would definitely seize her Saintess position.

She, Murong Xue, would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.

Soon, Murong Xue thought of something, and her expression became fierce.

"I remember that the Grand Vast Secret Realm opens a year from now. At that time, all the Disciples of the Wan Hua Holy Land will enter it, and Su Qiaoran, I want to see how you survive in the hands of three Great Saint Peaks!"

"Hehehehehehe!"

Thinking of herself about to become the Saintess of the Wan Hua Holy Land, Murong Xue couldn't help but laugh loudly.

And Su Qiaoran still didn't know that she had been targeted by Murong Xue. At this moment, she was fully striving to Breakthrough to the Great Saint Realm. However, the difficulty of Breakthrough to the Great Saint Realm was extremely high; even with her Supreme Grade Spiritual Root, it would take a long time to complete the Breakthrough.

"Is this the Central Domain? It's indeed much more prosperous than the Southern Domain."

Holy Son Yifan traversed numerous obstacles and finally arrived at the Central Domain.

Upon arriving in the Central Domain, Holy Son Yifan couldn't help but be surprised. This was his first time in the Central Domain, and he hadn't expected the Spiritual Qi content to be almost double that of the Southern Domain.

No wonder more powerful Cultivators wanted to come to the Central Domain.

However, Holy Son Yifan wasn't thinking too much at the moment. He was currently focused on how to quickly become stronger to take revenge on the three Saint King experts who had severely injured him back then.

Currently, Holy Son Yifan could fight a Saint King with just his Physical Body strength, but if all three attacked together, Holy Son Yifan might not be their opponent.

So, Holy Son Yifan was thinking of waiting until the Ancient Sacred Body's Restriction was lifted to the eighth layer, possessing the strength to slaughter Supremes, before making a move.

Moreover, Holy Son Yifan was not a reckless person; he naturally considered that those three Saint Kings might have powerful forces behind them. So, to be safe, it would be safer to wait until his Physical Body Breakthrough to the eighth layer and his cultivation also advanced to Peak Stage Saint King Realm before acting.
