Chapter 220: Going Out

The harvest from using the soul nourishing wood to fish this time was truly immense.

Previously, Yang Fan had thought he would be able to become a god within a year.

But looking at it now, he might not even need half a year.

Thinking of this, even Yang Fan couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

However, he quickly suppressed the fluctuation in his heart.

Now that the area of his Divine Kingdom had skyrocketed, it was the golden period for the development of his believers.

In reality, he wasn't in a rush to continue expanding his Divine Kingdom's area, nor was there any need to rush into a Breakthrough to become a god.

Compared to his Realm, what was more important now was to continue improving the overall strength of his Divine Kingdom.

If he moved too fast, danger would arrive just as quickly.

He had to slow down.

Thinking of this, Yang Fan immediately gave an order: "From now on, there is no need to continue launching Divine Kingdom Wars externally; focus primarily on improving the strength of the believers."

"Yes, Master." Yang Da nodded respectfully.

Yang Fan was very clear that once he achieved a Breakthrough to a god, the opponents he would face would no longer be demigods, but Third-Order Gods.

In comparison, the current demigod stage was actually the safest time, and the most suitable for accumulating foundations.

He possessed the Evolution Talent, so there was simply no need to seek instant success.

Seeking victory through stability was the best choice.

Furthermore, according to the rules of the Taichu Academy, once one achieved a Breakthrough to a god, it meant graduation.

At that time, he would have to head to the Human Race frontlines to truly fight against Alien Gods.

Yang Fan felt there was absolutely no need for him to be in such a rush; he could fully utilize this relatively safe development period.

He would develop the overall strength of his Divine Kingdom to its limit while in the demigod stage, and only then consider a Breakthrough to become a god.

After handling the affairs within the Divine Kingdom, Yang Fan's consciousness exited the Divine Kingdom.

He returned to reality.

Inside the villa courtyard, Gu Le was sitting on the sofa, swinging her legs.

Seeing Yang Fan open his eyes, she immediately pounced on him.

"Husband, the old man just contacted me."

"Hmm?"

"He said to let us go to the Virtual World to meet."

Hearing this, Yang Fan did not dare to delay.

The two of them quickly entered the Virtual World.

In the Virtual World, at the Gu Family Grounds.

Besides Third Elder Gu Xuanting, there was also a young man standing in the room.

The man was dressed in white, looked handsome, and a gentle smile always hung on his face.

He looked quite roguish.

As soon as they entered the room, Gu Le pounced over.

"Dad!"

"You finally remembered you still have a daughter like me?"

A look of helplessness appeared on Third Elder Gu Xuanting's face.

"You're so old already, yet you're still acting spoiled."

Although he said this, his eyes clearly carried doting affection.

Subsequently, his gaze fell upon Yang Fan. After lingering for only a moment, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Not bad. In such a short time, your strength has improved quite a bit."

"It seems my son-in-law is truly becoming more and more of a Prodigy."

Hearing this, Yang Fan bowed respectfully, "Father, you flatter me."

Third Elder Gu Xuanting waved his hand and then looked at the young man beside him.

"This is Gu Shaoqing. He is two years your senior; you can consider him your upperclassman."

Hearing this, Yang Fan immediately said politely, "It is a pleasure to meet you, upperclassman."

However, Gu Shaoqing was startled.

He hurriedly waved his hands.

"No, no, no!"

"Greetings, young lord."

As he said this, he even bowed solemnly.

At the Taichu Academy, grade was never important.

Strength and talent were the true sources of authority.

A peerless prodigy like Yang Fan was destined to be a core figure of the Gu Family in the future.

And he, Gu Shaoqing, was only a Grade-A Genius.

The status of the two parties was simply not on the same level.

Seeing this, Third Elder Gu Xuanting laughed and scolded, "Alright, we are all Family. There are no outsiders here, so don't be so formal."

Then he looked back at Yang Fan.

"Fan'er."

"I called you here today because I want you to accompany Shaoqing on a trip."

Yang Fan's expression became serious, "Please instruct me, Father."

Third Elder Gu Xuanting just smiled mysteriously.

"Allow me to keep you in suspense."

"After you arrive at the destination, the two of you can discuss how to handle it."

Hearing this, Yang Fan was even more confused.

However, it was clear that Third Elder Gu Xuanting was not prepared to say more, so he could only temporarily suppress his questions.

Very quickly, the group exited the room.

However, Yang Fan and Gu Le did not leave the Virtual World immediately.

Outside the main hall, Gu Le crossed her arms, staring at Gu Shaoqing with a wary expression.

"I'm warning you."

"Do what you are supposed to do."

"He is my husband."

"You are not allowed to corrupt him."

Gu Shaoqing was covered in cold sweat upon hearing this and hurriedly waved his hands.

"Don't worry, Third Young Miss."

"For this trip, I will definitely follow Brother Yang's lead."

He looked exactly like a sycophant.

After returning to reality.

Yang Fan was still somewhat confused.

"Le'er, what exactly did Father-in-law ask me to do?"

Gu Le shook her head.

"Don't worry."

"It's definitely a good thing."

"But as for the specific details, the old man didn't tell me either."

Yang Fan nodded.

Then he thought of something else.

"This Gu Shaoqing…"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, Gu Le suddenly looked nervous.

"Husband, you must not learn anything bad from him!"

"Huh?"

Yang Fan was stunned.

Gu Le couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"This guy has no other skills."

"But he is an expert at flirting with women."

"Between Divine Beings and demigods, he already has over two hundred wives."

"And his name is Shaoqing."

"So everyone calls him the 'Amorous Young Master'."

"He's a scumbag."

Hearing this, Yang Fan was completely shocked.

Two years older than him, yet he already had over two hundred wives?

Where did this guy find the time? Was he just a stud pig every day?

Yang Fan was deeply shocked in his heart.

If there was a real need, there were plenty of service institutions like Tianxiang Renjian, and he could have a different one every day without issue.

Yet this kid had actually managed to raise an entire large Family.

Sure enough, although people's hobbies had commonalities, they were also vastly different.

…

The next day.

Yang Fan notified Guardian Tang Yue and Ye Wen, and then went to meet up with Gu Shaoqing.

Gu Shaoqing looked at Yang Fan's entourage, and a look of envy immediately appeared in his eyes.

"As expected of a peerless prodigy, you actually have two Third-Order Gods protecting your path."

"Awesome!"

As he said this, he secretly gave a thumbs up.

Gu Shaoqing had a very outgoing personality.

But at the same time, he was very smart; whether in speech or action, he handled things with great propriety.

He always maintained the appearance of "Brother Yang's little brother," making it hard for people to feel any ill will toward him.

The group of four boarded the spacecraft prepared by the Gu Family.

After sitting down, Gu Shaoqing spoke:

"Our destination this time is Xiling Star, fifty billion light-years away."

"Through space jumping, we can arrive in about ten days."

Yang Fan frowned upon hearing this.

"What are we doing there?"

Gu Shaoqing shrugged.

"I'm not too sure either."

"But Third Elder Gu Xuanting said, after we arrive at Xiling Star, Brother Yang, you can do whatever you want."

"The strongest combat power on Xiling Star is only a Third-Order God."

Gu Shaoqing grinned.

"Let alone handling affairs, even if you took over Xiling Star, no one would be able to stop you."

Hearing this, Yang Fan only felt a head full of question marks.

What exactly did that riddle-loving Third Elder Gu Xuanting want to do?

Unable to figure it out, Yang Fan simply stopped agonizing over it.

Once they arrived at Xiling Star, he would naturally know the answer.
