A Great Transcendent martial technique is the foundation of a Martial God-level family and also a symbol of its prestige.
The Wu family's Martial God is renowned for the Thousand Miles to the West Technique, which has secured them a place on the Martial God rankings and earned them the reverence of countless people.
Thus, many are aware of the existence of the Thousand Miles to the West Technique.
If word got out that this prized technique, which the Wu family took immense pride in, had been leaked and secretly learned by an outsider, it would be akin to a ruthless slap in the face, utterly disgracing the family!
If another Martial God forcibly learned it, they might still find excuses or justifications to save face… But the one who obtained it turned out to be just an ordinary Martial Commander!
This was no longer just a matter of humiliation.
It would be an unprecedented disgrace to the entire Wu family, turning them into the biggest laughing stock among all Martial God families!
"Lord Canglang, I would never dare to utter a single false word!"
"I personally witnessed the matter regarding the Thousand Miles to the West Technique. Otherwise, I wouldn't have abandoned an important trade agreement to rush back to the family!"
"But, Lord Canglang, I must warn you—be extremely careful of this so-called 'ordinary' martial artist. On the surface, he appears to be just a mere Martial Commander, but in reality, he was able to easily kill Dongfang You… I was right next to Dongfang You at the time, yet I couldn't even see how he struck!"
"Even an SSS-level exotic beast was slain by him! And under his command is a group of warriors comparable to peak Martial Commanders… None of them should be underestimated!"
Wu Honghe gave a slight nod, maintaining a respectful attitude. When he spoke about Dongfang You's death and the SSS-level exotic beast being slain, a flicker of lingering fear appeared in his eyes.
"Dongfang You was merely a peak Martial Commander. An SSS-level exotic beast would fall with just a single axe strike from me… Are you suggesting that I, the noble demi-god commander of the Wu family, am not a match for some insignificant brat?"
Wu Canglang turned his head and spoke coldly.
His physique was tall and powerful, standing at a towering two meters. Clad in black armor, he radiated the imposing aura and dominance befitting the commander of a Martial God family!
"No, of course, that is not what I meant!"
Wu Honghe hurriedly explained.
"The Patriarch is not here, and the upper ranks of the Wu family have unanimously sent me to eliminate this threat completely."
"We have arrived at Base 15. Take me to him immediately. Once I kill him, we will swiftly return to base… The beast tide has just ended, and it's time for me to return to the Otherworld for further training!"
A look of impatience flickered in Wu Canglang's eyes.
The beast tide at Base 88 had just concluded, and through that life-and-death slaughter, his strength had once again seen a significant breakthrough… As the most promising candidate in centuries to become the Wu family's second Martial God, he was the hope of the entire clan. He himself longed to break free from the shackles of the Martial Commander realm and ascend to the absolute peak of Martial God!
If not for this sudden incident, which was of utmost importance and required immediate action, he would have already ventured into the exotic realm, battling fierce beasts.
That was why he was in such a foul mood right now.
He just wanted to end this nuisance as quickly as possible.
"Lord Canglang, we've arrived! Below is the residence of the criminal, Su Xiaobai!"
At that moment, the warship had reached the sky above Su Xiaobai's villa.
A streak of light shot toward Wu Canglang and came to a halt before him.
It was the new governor of Base 15.
Upon sensing the demi-god Martial Commander aura emanating from Wu Canglang, the governor's heart tensed. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
For the Wu family to send a demi-god Martial Commander here aboard a warship, they must be plotting something significant!
With a casual sweep of his spiritual perception, he could detect numerous ordinary, elite, and even peak Martial Commanders within the warship!
Instantly, the governor realized that something major was about to happen.
"My lord, I apologize for not welcoming you sooner. Please forgive me!"
"A banquet has been prepared at the governor's mansion in your honor, if you would be so kind…"
Before the governor could finish, Wu Canglang coldly spat out a single word, "Who do you think you are? You think you're worthy of inviting me?"
The governor's words caught in his throat. Rage surged in his heart, but he dared not show it.
"Since the criminal is right below, let's move!"
"Everyone, seal off the entire core district—no one is to escape!"
Wu Canglang ignored the governor completely. With a single command, streams of light shot out from the warship.
All the Martial Commanders swiftly took their positions, encircling the core district from all directions—both on the ground and in the air—completely sealing off Su Xiaobai's villa!
A few ordinary Martial Commanders, dressed in the robes of the Dongfang family, jumped forward.
These individuals had been assigned by the new Dongfang family head to guard Su Ling'er, and they were prepared to strike at any sign of intrusion.
However, upon seeing that they were surrounded by ordinary, elite, and even peak Martial Commanders, their expressions changed dramatically.
They tried to pull out their communicators to report the situation, but the Wu family's warriors gave them no chance, ruthlessly cutting them down on the spot!
"Hmph! A bunch of ants."
Wu Canglang descended from the warship, his gaze full of disdain and contempt.
As a demi-god Martial Commander, Base 15 was nothing more than an oversized toy to him… What were governors and families to him? Mere ants, utterly beneath him!
Inside the villa's garden, a small white dragon sensed the impending danger. It instantly took on a ferocious stance, shielding Su Ling'er behind it while letting out a menacing snarl at Wu Canglang.
"Su Xiaobai, are you still not coming out obediently?"
Wu Canglang's voice, infused with spiritual power, resounded across half of Base 15!
Many warriors turned their attention toward the scene.
The neighbors around Su Xiaobai's residence, realizing the severity of the situation, fled without hesitation!
The governor's face darkened.
The core district represented the base's prestige.
Wu Canglang's blatant disregard for his authority was an open humiliation… But what could he, a mere elite Martial Commander, do against a demi-god Martial Commander's provocation?
What was he supposed to do? Rush in and throw his life away?
"Lord Canglang, that girl is Su Xiaobai's woman!"
"And that white dragon is his pet!"
Wu Honghe informed him.
"They're an eyesore. Die."
Wu Canglang extended a single finger and slashed through the air.
A sharp crescent-shaped energy blade materialized and shot toward Su Ling'er and the white dragon!
Suddenly, a sword aura and a blade aura flew forth, shattering the crescent-shaped energy attack!
Two figures clad in black cloaks and white masks appeared out of thin air, standing protectively in front of Su Ling'er and the white dragon.
"My lord, those are the subordinates of Su Xiaobai I mentioned!"
"Hmph, just two subordinates? Elite Martial Commanders? So what?"
"They are nothing but—"
Wu Canglang's voice abruptly cut off.
