The three, led by Marquis Purple Lightning, were still somewhat uneasy about Luo Fan's arrival.
After all, it was not as though there had never been core members at the Domain Lord level who could not tolerate any impurity.
After being sent out, such people would directly purge everyone in a branch.
Anyone who could reach this position usually did not have a completely clean record.
If one truly wanted to investigate, something could almost always be found.
Sometimes it was not even that these people acted on their own initiative.
At this level, many things were beyond one's control.
Because of this, the Virtual Universe Company usually turned a blind eye to such matters.
Only when things became extremely serious would they begin a reckoning.
Or if someone had dealings with alien races and sold information about the human race, only then would a purge be carried out.
Otherwise, the Virtual Universe Company generally would not do much.
After all, in the universe, anyone who could reach this position possessed considerable strength.
An Immortal was certainly more important than ordinary people below the Immortal level.
So even if these supervisors and stewards used their positions to profit for themselves, the Virtual Universe Company would not say much.
This was precisely why the three were so nervous after learning that Luo Fan had been dispatched outward.
Moreover, aside from those who could not tolerate any impurity, there were many other types of geniuses with different personalities.
Some liked women or men, some liked money.
None of these were actually serious problems.
Even if they were somewhat greedy and demanded more money, it was not an issue for the three supervisors.
Even if those geniuses took all of their assets, it would still be fine.
As long as they remained in their positions, the money could be earned back sooner or later.
What they feared was geniuses who liked power and casually interfered in branch affairs.
That would turn the branch into a complete mess.
In the end, they would still be the ones cleaning up.
If it were some geniuses with poorer talent, no backing, and low status, they could still employ certain methods.
But members of the Primal Secret Realm were different.
No methods could be used against them.
Otherwise, it would be their own downfall.
Especially someone like Luo Fan, which was even more terrifying.
Luo Fan was a nominal disciple of the Lord of Ice Peak.
Even without that identity, there were two King-Sealed Immortals standing behind him.
Moreover, behind one of those King-Sealed Immortals stood a Universe Overlord.
Even that alone was not something the three could afford to provoke.
So under these circumstances, Luo Fan was actually the best possible case.
It could even be said that they were extremely fortunate.
This was exactly the kind of situation they most wanted to encounter.
A genius who only wanted to cultivate and could not be bothered with other matters was what they hoped for most.
The three quickly sent voice transmissions to Luo Fan.
"Your Highness Luo Fan, rest assured, we absolutely have no improper dealings with alien races!"
"Yes, yes, we have no contact with alien races at all."
"We are completely loyal to the Company!"
As they spoke, the three secretly slipped a World Ring to Luo Fan.
Each of them handed over one.
Luo Fan said nothing and accepted them directly.
He knew that accepting them now was the best option.
Sure enough.
After seeing Luo Fan accept their World Rings, the three became even more enthusiastic.
Luo Fan split off a trace of consciousness to take a look.
The contents of the three World Rings were roughly the same.
They were mostly items useful to ordinary Domain Lords and World Masters.
In terms of value, each was worth roughly several hundred thousand Chaos Units.
These were not cheap items for the three.
However, Luo Fan had no interest in them at all.
He could simply leave them on Earth later.
After putting the items away, Luo Fan could not help but think that if Luo Feng and the other two had not concealed their identities and went to other universe countries,
would Marquis Purple Lightning and the other two not end up receiving four dispatched core members in succession?
Not just that.
Luo Fan, Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God alone already made four from the Earth group.
In addition to that, there was also Rong Jun.
At this thought, a strange expression flashed through Luo Fan's eyes.
And there were still two more.
That was Luo Fan's two sons, Luo Xingyu and Luo Xingzhou.
Both of his children had excellent talent.
After all, they could be considered progenitors of a Domain Lord bloodline.
They had both already passed the second level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge.
There was a strong chance they would pass the fourth level before leaving Chaos City.
After all, the two of them had been in Chaos City for less than seven years.
Moreover, they had left behind a water clone in the Origin Law Secret Realm.
Luo Fan could guide them at any time.
Although cultivators at the Universe level and above could not enter the Origin Law Secret Realm,
breaking through inside it was not a problem.
So both of them had left a water clone there.
Luo Fan's avatar would sometimes answer their questions.
With his current comprehension of laws, guiding his two children posed no issue at all.
…
Very soon, Marquis Purple Lightning and the other two brought Luo Fan to the banquet hall where the welcoming feast was being held.
Although it was called a banquet hall, it was actually an estate with sides exceeding a thousand kilometers.
This place had only been cleared and rebuilt a month ago.
For the estate and the banquet, Marquis Purple Lightning, the head of the Commerce Division of the Qianwu Branch, had actually prepared for a full month.
The entire estate was resplendent and dazzling.
There were over a million servants inside.
Among them were even ten World Masters.
It must be known that Qiongyu Star, as one of the nine administrative planets of the Qianwu Universe Country, was extremely valuable land.
Yet this estate alone occupied an astonishingly vast area.
Moreover, all the materials used were luxurious.
The value of this single estate surpassed that of several star regions combined.
This estate now belonged to Luo Fan.
At this moment, faint rays of light radiated throughout the estate.
From outside, it was impossible to see clearly what was happening inside.
One expensive universe ship after another hovered above the main gate of the estate, and Immortal gods stepped out in succession from their hatches.
Each entered formally through the main gate.
Marquis Purple Lightning had already sent out a large number of invitations.
Today, nearly all the prominent figures of the Qianwu Universe Country had arrived.
The three began leading Luo Fan around to meet these influential figures of the Qianwu Universe Country.
As for Luo Fan, he only showed a slight difference in attitude when the Black Dragon Mountain Emperor arrived.
Toward everyone else, he merely smiled and nodded, acknowledging them briefly.
Soon, the banquet officially began.
Throughout the banquet, there were specialty ingredients gathered from all over the Qianwu Universe Country.
There were even quite a few delicacies that were specialties of other universe countries.
This was also why Marquis Purple Lightning had prepared for so long.
Many of these ingredients had been purchased at great cost from collectors within the Qianwu Universe Country.
After the banquet began, quite a few people came to toast with Luo Fan.
Their main purpose was to establish a connection with him.
After all, although on the surface Luo Fan's realm appeared to be the lowest among those present,
in terms of status, Luo Fan was instead the highest.
Just as he was dealing with these Immortals who wanted to befriend him,
in a corner of the banquet hall, a World Master junior brought by an Immortal had a glint flash through her eyes.
This World Master was extremely beautiful.
Moreover, her appearance was very similar to that of an Earth human.
The elderly man beside her looked at her and said,
"Dana, let's go. We should also get acquainted with this newly arrived Supervisory Envoy."
"If we can befriend him, it will bring great benefits to our family."
"If you can establish some kind of relationship with him, our family might produce another Immortal in the future."
As the old man said this, a trace of fervor flashed in his eyes.
Hearing this, the female World Master revealed a charming smile on the surface.
"Alright, Clan Head. I know what to do."
The old man nodded in satisfaction and led the female World Master toward Luo Fan.
He did not notice that behind him, the eyes of this junior from his clan also flashed with fervor.
However, this fervor was different from the old man's gaze, which carried greed and desire.
Instead, the female World Master's burning gaze carried a hint of madness and devotion.
Very soon, the old man brought her to Luo Fan's side.
Seeing this, Marquis Purple Lightning also introduced them to Luo Fan.
"Your Highness Luo Fan, this is Gold Sword King, one of the 'Three Hundred Marquis-Kings' of the Qianwu Universe Country. His family mainly deals in the energy business."
Gold Sword King gave Marquis Purple Lightning a grateful look, then hurried forward respectfully to toast Luo Fan.
"Your Highness Luo Fan, greetings. I mainly engage in energy trade. If you have any needs, you may contact me at any time."
As he spoke, Gold Sword King also pulled the female World Master behind him forward.
"This is one of our family's supervisors responsible for managing energy affairs, Dana."
"If you need it, you may let Dana accompany you."
"She is very familiar with many places in the Qianwu Universe Country and can show you around."
When Gold Sword King spoke, there was even a trace of flattery on his face.
Although his title was Gold Sword King,
in reality, this was merely a title within the Qianwu Universe Country.
Among the so-called "Three Hundred Marquis-Kings" of the Qianwu Universe Country, not a single one possessed true King-Sealed Immortal strength.
Someone like Gold Sword King, despite the title of King, was merely a high-level Marquis.
Luo Fan was well aware of this.
The so-called "Three Hundred Marquis-Kings" were heavily inflated in reputation.
There were even some Immortals within them who did not even possess Marquis-level strength, being only Immortal military commanders.
In truth, the entire Qianwu Universe Country had very few Immortals with true King-Sealed strength.
Most of them were people close to the Qianwu Country Lord.
For example, Thirteen and the others.
The rest were King-Sealed powerhouses who had not joined the Qianwu Universe Country.
Luo Fan had heard of this Gold Sword King before.
Some of the energy used in the ships he previously manufactured had been purchased from Gold Sword King's forces.
After exchanging greetings, Luo Fan glanced at Dana and said directly,
"Just leave a Virtual Universe account. There's no need for this lady to stay."
"I also have no intention of wandering around the Qianwu Universe Country."
This was not the first beauty to appear at the banquet.
He had already sent them all back.
Hearing this, Gold Sword King said nothing more. After leaving a Virtual Universe account for Luo Fan, he prepared to leave with Dana.
At that moment, Dana revealed a strange smile.
"Welcome the descent of my master!"
