Pasna sat on the opposite sofa, looking at his friend glaring at him, a suitable confusion showing on his face, and some suspicion in his heart.
"Could it be that the news of me obtaining the coordinates of a Space Wormhole that can enter the Void Zone of the Milky Way Galaxy… has leaked?"
The reason Pasna had such suspicions was that he knew his former sworn brother, Torres, had the greatest hope of becoming the next Emperor of the Azurewood Empire.
The Azurewood Empire has a long history, and every Emperor has been an Immortal. It is said that the current Emperor is the third.
This means that the Azurewood Empire's Imperial Family has at least three Immortals, possessing formidable strength!
"Torres, what's wrong with you?" Pasna asked softly.
Even if he suspected that a spy had been planted under him, he couldn't show any doubt or dissatisfaction, as he needed his friend Torres's protection.
Torres looked at his former friend and sighed softly after a long time, asking, "Tell me, what have you done recently?"
"I haven't done anything recently?" Pasna expressed confusion at the question.
"Heh, haven't done anything…"
Torres chuckled, then said coldly, "Haven't done anything? Why did you summon your Universe Adventurers?!"
"Haven't done anything, why did World Master Li Yao of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Azurewood Empire Branch warn me so mercilessly?!"
Torres angrily demanded, "Do you know what World Master Li Yao told me?"
"What did World Master Li Yao say?" Pasna looked bewildered.
Honestly, he didn't know what he had done to provoke World Master Li Yao of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Azurewood Empire Branch to step forward.
He had always been cautious in his actions, rarely provoking major powers in the Azurewood Empire, let alone the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company, one of the six major giants of the Universe.
Because he knew that even with a sworn brother with whom he had adventured, their bond would eventually run out.
"If you dare to send people again, invading the hometown of a core member of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch through a Space Wormhole…"
Torres said coldly, "He will not only kill you, but me as well!"
"World Master Li Yao, how dare he?"
Pasna's eyes widened, and his face showed astonishment.
No matter what, his friend Torres was a World Master of the Azurewood Empire's Imperial Family, backed by the Azurewood Empire's founder, Marquis Azurewood. How could World Master Li Yao dare to threaten him like that?
"How dare he not?"
Torres gritted his teeth and retorted, "World Master Li Yao is backed by the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company, and he is protecting the hometown of a core member of the higher-level Ganwu Branch. Do you think he dares or not?!"
Upon hearing this, Pasna's forehead broke out in a slight cold sweat.
Undoubtedly, World Master Li Yao, backed by the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company, truly dared to kill Torres!
"Space Wormhole, invading the hometown of a core member of the Ganwu Branch…"
Pasna connected this to his friend's initial question and suddenly realized, "I didn't send anyone to invade the hometown of a core member of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch!
"It was one of my adventurer teams that accidentally entered the Void Zone of the Milky Way Galaxy through a Space Wormhole. This was just an accident!"
"Whether it's an accident or not, it doesn't matter."
Torres said coldly, "What matters is that I was threatened because of you, a life-threatening threat!"
"Pasna, remember this!"
"This is the last time I will solve trouble for you. From now on, no matter what trouble you get into, I will not intervene."
"I will immediately send people to guard that Space Wormhole in the Chilan Empire. Your people should stay as far away from there as possible!"
Torres finally emphasized, "Did you hear me clearly?"
"I heard clearly."
Pasna bowed his head slightly. Although he really wanted to salvage his relationship with his friend, he knew their bond had run its course!
"Alright, you can leave now." Torres gestured with his head.
"Take care, and I wish you success in becoming the next Emperor of the Azurewood Empire." Pasna left a blessing and disappeared as a white light.
Torres watched his former friend leave and couldn't help but sigh softly.
He somewhat didn't understand why Pasna, who used to be so generous and open-minded, had become like this.
"There's a Space Wormhole in the Chilan Empire that leads directly to the Void Zone of the Milky Way Galaxy. I remember that was once Hu Yan Bo's territory."
After a while, Torres murmured, "I didn't expect that tens of thousands of years after Hu Yan Bo's fall, a Genius expert who entered the Core Region of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch would emerge from the Void Zone.
"Did he obtain the Legacy left by Hu Yan Bo? Otherwise, how could he have emerged from the Void Zone…"
Torres had Cultivated for over a hundred thousand years. As a member of the Azurewood Empire's Imperial Family, he naturally knew about Hu Yan Bo, a rather famous Immortal expert.
To be honest, he admired Hu Yan Bo greatly.
He had never truly joined super powers like the six major giant branches of the Ganwu Universe Country, or the Ganwu Dojo, yet he was able to rise step by step to become Immortal and even create his own secret technique, Soul enslaved, 'Iron Sword Marquis,' which shows his strong talent.
Admiration is one thing, but he didn't want to become a lone wolf like Hu Yan Bo. As a member of the Azurewood Empire's Imperial Family, he understood the importance of resources.
If Hu Yan Bo had truly joined a certain super power and had a super power as his backing, he would not have met his demise.
In fact, with abundant resources, he would have had the Opportunity to further enhance his strength and become a super expert among the Immortal.

Virtual Universe, Ganwu Continent, Azurewood Island, Red Leaf Community.
When Thor informed Luo Feng that Earth's crisis had been resolved, he then brought up the matter of the Golden-Horned Beast.
"Third Brother, you performed Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast, didn't you?" Thor asked softly.
This question immediately made Luo Feng pause.
"Thor, what are you talking about? How could Luo Feng perform Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast?"
Before Luo Feng could answer, Babata interjected, "If he performed Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast, what is Luo Feng now?"
"Babata, don't try to fool me. Perhaps I didn't know before."
Thor smiled and shook his head, "But now, I am a core member of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch. How could I not know the information that the Golden-Horned Beast can nurture three Clones?"
"Thor…" Babata was about to speak but was stopped by Luo Feng.
"Second Brother, I did indeed perform Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast."
Luo Feng took a deep breath and replied, "Performing Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast was the last resort to save Earth. If I…"
"I understand."
Thor interrupted Luo Feng before he finished, saying softly, "Third Brother, you gave your all to save Earth."
"Although you are a Spiritual Master and have obtained Hu Yan Bo's Legacy, who specialized in the Soul Dao, your Soul will may not be as strong as mine and Big Brother's."
"It was very difficult for you to first attack the Thunder Beast's Soul until it fell asleep, and then perform Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast, and even while nurturing your Clone, watching…"
As he said this, Thor sighed and shook his head, then added, "To be able to perform Possession on the Golden-Horned Beast, one of the Space Beasts, Third Brother, you have a great Opportunity, and your future achievements will not be low."
"That's natural." Babata said proudly, "Luo Feng is my master's successor."
Thor smiled and didn't refute.
Before entering the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch, the legendary Immortal, Hu Yan Bo, was indeed the most powerful existence in his impression. However, after entering the Ganwu Branch and gaining King Swift Thunder's attention, and even learning about the great existence that could reverse time and space, Hu Yan Bo became much more ordinary.
Of course, this was also because Thor had heard many Immortals, and even Pinnacle and King-level Immortal, give public lectures after coming to the Core Region of the Ganwu Branch.
"Third Brother, the Golden-Horned Beast can nurture three Clones. Your first Clone should have been a human Clone that you nurtured at the Stellar Rank."
Thor first made a guess, then asked, "Are you nurturing your second Clone?"
"The second Clone has not yet been nurtured." Luo Feng replied, "Babata's intention is to best nurture a Clone with high Space Law talent."
"Good suggestion." Thor nodded in agreement.
"How could my suggestion be bad?" Babata proudly raised his head.
"Third Brother, a friend of mine in the Ganwu Branch said that his Ancestor collected a small piece of a Universe Level Mosha Clan skin."
Thor smiled and asked, "Are you interested in nurturing a Mosha Clan Clone? If so, I'll help you buy it."
"Of course I'm interested!"
Before Luo Feng could react too much, Babata immediately shouted, "Thor, you must help Luo Feng buy that Mosha Clan skin!"
"Mosha Clan, what kind of Race is that?" Luo Feng asked in confusion.
"The Mosha Clan are darlings of Space Law, and they are soulless energy-based lifeforms extremely skilled in assassination and stealth."
Babata said excitedly, "Luo Feng, choosing this Mosha Clan Clone for your second Clone is simply perfect. Perhaps you can comprehend Space Law one step ahead!"
"Energy-based lifeform?"
Luo Feng was slightly stunned. This was the first time he had heard this term.
"We humans and the Demon Beasts on Earth all belong to flesh-and-blood lifeforms."
Thor explained, seeing his reaction, "While the Mosha Clan are energy-based lifeforms. There is no concept of a Soul for them. As long as their core is not destroyed, a Mosha Clan member will not die."
"Even if they die, their energy will dissipate, leaving only a shattered core, so it's very difficult to kill a Mosha Clan member."
"And the skin of the Mosha Clan, due to the 'Space Origin Law Secret Runes' on it, makes the more complete the Mosha Clan skin, the more expensive its price."
Thor smiled, "But don't worry, the piece of Mosha Clan skin I mentioned is not large, and the Space Origin Law Secret Runes on it are also incomplete, so its value is not high and it can only be used as a collectible."
"What? The Mosha Clan skin is not large, is it enough as material for nurturing a Clone?" Babata exclaimed.
"Although the area is not large, it's enough as material for nurturing a Clone." Thor nodded.
"Luo Feng, we must buy the Mosha Clan skin to nurture a Clone."
Babata shouted, "The Pinnacle Genius Battle is only a few years away. You need to seize the time to strengthen your strength."
"Second Brother, please help me buy that Mosha Clan skin."
Seeing that both Thor and Babata recommended it, Luo Feng nodded and said, "I will transfer the money for the Mosha Clan skin to you."
"Forget the money." Thor shook his head slightly, "This isn't something that can be bought with money."
"Thor, don't underestimate Luo Feng."
Babata chuckled in the air, "Luo Feng's current net worth exceeds 100 Mixed units."
"Oh?" Thor was a bit surprised, "Third Brother, have you taken out your teacher's inheritance?"
"My master's inheritance can only be fully taken out when Luo Feng reaches Domain Master."
Babata explained with a smile, "The reason Luo Feng has so much money is entirely thanks to his younger brother Luo Hua's financial investments."
"Luo Hua?" Thor smiled at Luo Feng, "I didn't expect your younger brother's financial investment talent to be effective not only on Earth but also in the Universe."
"He does have some talent in investment."
Luo Feng also smiled, "Coupled with the assistance of some financial investment elites from Earth, he has made a name for himself in the financial investment circles of the Azurewood Empire and even the Ganwu Universe Country."
"It's great that Luo Hua has such ability. At least, Third Brother, you won't be short on money in the short term."
Thor nodded gently, then changed the topic, "However, to buy that piece of Mosha Clan skin, you can't buy it with Mixed units. You'll probably need to exchange 3 to 5 points for it."
"Points? What points?"
Luo Feng and Babata were confused. They had never heard of this currency called points.
"This is an internal currency of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company. 1 point is basically equivalent to 1 Mixed unit, but Mixed units cannot be converted into points."
Thor explained, "With points, you can purchase precious treasures and secret techniques in the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's treasury that are difficult to buy elsewhere."
"Treasures like Mosha Clan skin, you can buy a large piece with points, a skin with complete Space Origin Law Secret Runes."
"Secret techniques, such as 'Void Tower,' '10,000 Thread Flow,' 'Immortal Thunder,' and so on."
"This…"
Babata's eyes widened, feeling incredibly unbelievable.
Never mind the Mosha Clan skin, his master Hu Yan Bo had spent a great deal of effort to obtain the secret technique 'Void Tower' back then.
Yet, such a precious secret technique could be freely purchased with points at the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch.
Luo Feng listened, and couldn't help but feel envious.
The Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company is indeed one of humanity's six major giants. Just one branch can have such exaggerated benefits. One can only say it's generous!
At this moment, Thor added, "This is only what can be purchased with the authority of the 1468 Universe Country Branch. It is said that the core members of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company Headquarters can purchase treasures and secret techniques of a higher Rank."
"Luo Feng, you must work hard in the Pinnacle Genius Battle and strive to enter the Core Region of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company!" Babata shouted excitedly.
"I will work hard." Luo Feng nodded in response.
"Second Brother, I'll trouble you with the Mosha Clan skin."
Luo Feng said solemnly to Thor, "I know that the points of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch are very valuable. I will give you 30 Mixed units as compensation, Second Brother."
"Alright, I'll accept the 30 Mixed units."
Thor originally didn't want compensation, but seeing Luo Feng's serious expression, he nodded and agreed.
"Second Brother, what's your bank account? I'll have Babata transfer the money to you." Luo Feng added.
"My bank account is…" Thor stated his bank account.
The two chatted for a while longer before dispersing.
