Chapter 137: The Martial God Ranking!

“The Wu Family?”

After Rankingening to Dongfang Rou and the new governor’s explanation, Su Xiaobai’s gaze turned cold, and a faint aura leaked from his body.

Both Dongfang Rou and the new governor felt their hearts tighten as if the temperature around them had suddenly dropped to freezing…

“Do you know why they are causing trouble for me?” Su Xiaobai asked in a deep voice.

Until now, he still had no idea why the other party was after him.

“Senior, it is very likely because of a martial technique you possess!” the new governor said solemnly. “The moment the Wu family arrived, I immediately went to stop them. From their conversation, I vaguely heard the words ‘Thousand Miles to the West’!”

“Thousand Miles to the West?”

“Governor, are you referring to the ‘Thousand Miles to the West Technique’?” Dongfang Rou’s expression changed.

“Yes, exactly! The ‘Thousand Miles to the West Technique’!” The new governor nodded firmly.

Boom!

At that moment, Su Xiaobai understood everything.

So, the ‘Thousand Miles to the West Technique’ that Dongfang You had was originally obtained from the Wu family!

No wonder Dongfang Rou had said before that Dongfang You didn’t dare to reveal it, fearing discovery. He even went to the extent of sealing it with a blood-based concealment technique.

This also explained why Dongfang You’s expression turned so strange when he heard Si Boyan mention the Wu family that day.

Facing a Martial God family…

A mere Ultimate Martial Commander like Dongfang You wouldn’t dare to act recklessly!

Now, the situation was obvious.

After Su Xiaobai successfully cultivated the ‘Thousand Miles to the West Technique’, he was seen by Wu Honghe.

Wu Honghe immediately reported back to the Wu family, and they sent an army to eliminate him… After all, the leakage of a Great Transcendent martial technique couldn’t be taken lightly.

The result was obvious.

The ones sent weren’t strong enough and were completely wiped out by Su Xiaobai’s two shadows, leaving no trace behind…

Instead, they ended up delivering a wave of loot to Su Xiaobai, allowing him to unlock the One-Click Enhancement Space, leading to a series of subsequent events.

“Mr. Su, I sincerely apologize… I really…”

Dongfang Rou finally understood the whole situation and immediately apologized to Su Xiaobai.

After all, she was the one who gave Su Xiaobai the ‘Thousand Miles to the West Technique’.

This indirectly brought the Wu family upon him.

Su Xiaobai had helped her so much—even going as far as killing Dongfang You—yet she had brought such a huge problem to him. Dongfang Rou felt truly guilty.

“No need to apologize. This matter is in the past.”

Su Xiaobai raised his hand to stop her, smiling as he spoke.

Without the ‘Thousand Miles to the West Technique’, he wouldn’t have reached Otherworld City so quickly, nor would he have attracted the Wu family’s attention. He also wouldn’t have obtained such a massive amount of loot in such a short time, unlocking the One-Click Enhancement Space and boosting his strength to that of a standard Martial God.

That was the only reason he had the confidence to enter Senluo Cloud City and experience everything he had in Virtual Network…

In the end, it’s the Wu family’s misfortune!

Of all the people they could have chosen to kill, they just had to pick me…

They can only blame themselves!

“But Mr. Su, your subordinates killed the Wu family’s commander, and not even their Martial God’s avatar could stop them… I’m afraid the Wu family’s Martial God won’t let this go easily!”

Dongfang Rou said with concern.

“Martial God’s avatar?”

Su Xiaobai was unaware of what had happened.

He could command his shadows, but that didn’t mean he could perceive everything through them… Naturally, he didn’t know that Wu Canglang had crushed his Life Token and summoned his Martial God avatar.

“Yes! I saw it with my own eyes!” The new governor said with lingering fear. “He tried to persuade your subordinates, but they still slaughtered the Wu family’s commander and everyone else on the spot!”

“The Wu family’s Martial God avatar disappeared with overwhelming rage.”

As he said this, the new governor carefully observed Su Xiaobai’s reaction.

The appearance of a Martial God’s avatar was already a warning in itself.

Yet Su Xiaobai’s subordinates had shown no hesitation, slaughtering everyone regardless… This was no different from slapping the Wu family’s Martial God in the face!

How could he let this slide?

“I see.”

“So what if they’re dead? I thought it was something more serious.”

Su Xiaobai didn’t care at all, looking completely at ease.

His shadows only acted when someone threatened Su Ling’er. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have appeared at all.

Since they made a move, it meant Su Ling’er was attacked…

Based on that alone, those Wu family members could die a million times, and it still wouldn’t be enough!

“But Mr. Su, the Wu family’s Martial God is well-known and even ranked on the Martial God Ranking! Even Martial Gods of the same level may not be his match!”

“You absolutely cannot underestimate him!”

Dongfang Rou said worriedly.

“Martial God Ranking?”

“There’s such a ranking?”

Su Xiaobai wasn’t interested in the Wu family’s Martial God.

Right now, he could easily crush Ultimate Martial Gods, so a mere Wu family Martial God meant nothing to him.

Unless he was at the Half-King level, only then would Su Xiaobai take him seriously.

But if he had truly reached the Half-King level, why would he need to flee just because he couldn’t defend his base?

Instead, what piqued his interest was the ‘Martial God Ranking’.

After seeing so many leaderboards in Virtual Network, he was curious to know what kind of powerful figures were ranked among human Martial Gods.

“Yes, the Martial God Ranking does exist!”

The new governor said, “I used to work at Base 39 and heard about it. It’s said that once someone reaches the Martial God realm, they can go to Base 1 for an evaluation. Those who make it onto the Ranking receive generous annual aid from Base 1!”

“There’s also a Martial Commander Ranking, but I’m too weak to qualify for it.”

His eyes dimmed as he spoke.

A Martial Commander Ranking too?

Was Base 1 trying to screen elite talents like Virtual Network in the Otherworld World?

“Both Rankings are far beyond our reach, so I don’t know much… But if you want information, you should go to Base 8. It’s a super base with more intel!”

The new governor suggested.

“No need for Base 8. I’ll go straight to Base 1—it’s more direct!”

Su Xiaobai smirked.

“That’s true, but… Base 1 is humanity’s core and is already overcrowded. It doesn’t fully open to outsiders, and entering will bring many restrictions. If you want information, you’ll attract unnecessary trouble… Unless you obtain Base 1’s residency!”

The new governor sighed.

“Even Martial Gods can’t obtain it?”

“Then how do you qualify?”

Su Xiaobai asked curiously.

The new governor hesitated before cautiously saying:

“Unless… you can kill a Martial God!”

Hearing this, Su Xiaobai grinned.

“Perfect timing!”

“I was just wondering whether to kill this Wu family’s Martial God—now I’m sure.”

“He’s dead for sure!”

Su Xiaobai grinned widely.
