"Why aren't they here yet?"
On Qing Lan Star, Qin Ying waited anxiously, having been in Lanting Universe Kingdom for some time now. Recently, she had also discovered many unusual things.
The highest-point mission issued by the Virtual Universe Corporation initially seemed very simple, but she never expected it to involve so much. Now, she was trapped on Qing Lan Star, completely unable to leave.
Qin Hao had told Qin Ying about it before he came. Qin Ying had relaxed quite a bit, but recently, the three major giants of Lanting Universe Kingdom's Commerce Department, Military Department, and Finance Department began to press harder, making Qin Ying anxious.
Although Qin Ying had brought a guard army when she was sent out, it consisted of one Undying, ten World Lords, one hundred Sector Lords, and one thousand Universe Rank guards, which was still insufficient in the face of the three major giants.
After all, the three major giants of every Cosmic Country were at least Marquis-level Immortal powerhouses. The Undying in Qin Ying's guard team had only barely reached the level of an Undying Army Lord, so the strength gap was significant.
Now they didn't dare to directly attack her, but they could use various means to force her to make a decision quickly. If she chose to make a decision passively, she might be able to escape her current predicament. However, it would be very detrimental to her future development in the Virtual Universe Corporation.
She had also consulted Luo Feng and the others about being sent out and understood what the so-called highest-point mission represented behind the scenes.
"Has she not made a decision yet?"
"Not yet, she's probably hesitating, after all, it concerns the highest-point mission."
"Hmph, sent to Lanting Universe Kingdom, with no background to speak of, pressure her more."
Outside Qing Lan Star, the three major giants of Lanting Universe Kingdom gathered on a spaceship, conversing. The Three God Ancestors were also very nervous about the current situation.
Having operated in Lanting Universe Kingdom for so long, they were unwilling to see any mistakes. However, they never expected that an externally assigned Sector Lord Inspector would actually seize their handle.
They couldn't kill her, nor could they let her go, and the Three God Ancestors had no solution now.
"At worst, we'll find a scapegoat, fake an assassination by an alien race, and eliminate her completely."
"Let's wait a bit longer. After all, she's a genius from the Highest Beginning Mythical Region. If the Corporation catches us, you and I won't even have the luxury of death."
In the Dark Universe, Qin Hao stood on the spaceship, his heart also somewhat anxious. He was aware of the complexity of the current situation from the information fed back by the Virtual Universe.
The power of the Virtual Universe Corporation meant it held immense influence and authority in any Cosmic Country. Precisely because of this, the administrators of each Cosmic Country controlled vast resources, and the corruption within was extremely complex.
As one of the outermost Cosmic Countries, Lanting Universe Kingdom's situation was also extremely complex, and the corruption involved not just the three major giants, but also intricate relationships behind them.
However, these were not what Qin Hao needed to consider now; the most important thing was to ensure his sister's safety.
As Qin Hao was deep in thought, the spaceship's speed rapidly decreased, and the surrounding environment began to change, returning to the Universe. After flying for a few more hours, a planet predominantly green and blue appeared in the nearby starry sky.
"This must be Qing Lan Star, the timing is just right." Looking at the relatively calm Qing Lan Star, Qin Hao also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Qing Lan Star was now completely controlled, it also indicated that nothing major had happened, and the three major giants of Lanting Universe Kingdom had not yet officially made their move.
"An F-class spaceship detected. Should we intercept it?" When Qin Hao appeared, the direction of Qing Lan Star also detected the spaceship's appearance, and the news quickly reached the three major giants.
"How could an F-class spaceship appear?"
F-class spaceships were generally the mounts of Undying powerhouses, and the F-class spaceship in front of them did not seem so simple. Both its appearance and its demonstrated performance had reached the peak of F-class spaceships.
"Immediately issue a warning signal, warning the spaceship not to approach."
"Spaceship ahead, please stop. This is territory belonging to the Virtual Universe Corporation, and a major incident is currently being handled. Approaching will be considered a provocation."
Listening to the voice coming from the spaceship, Qin Hao paid no attention at all. The spaceship hatch opened, and he directly stepped out of the spaceship, storing it into his world ring.
"A World Lord? How could it be a World Lord?"
"No matter who it is, capture him immediately. For him to appear here, he's just unlucky, he'll make a good scapegoat."
The Three God Ancestors exchanged glances and quickly made a decision. The appearance of a strange World Lord could be conveniently identified as an assassin. As long as the assassin was killed, then whatever the situation, it would be up to them to say.
After storing the spaceship into his world ring, Qin Hao had not yet left when beams of energy waves from a distance directly attacked him. At the same time, within the energy waves, there were also waves of divine power and World Power attacks, directly engulfing Qin Hao's location.
"Hmph, how dare they be so audacious? It seems there's no need to leave them."
Qin Hao thought, but did not directly retaliate. Instead, he instantly teleported from his original spot, appearing on Qing Lan Star, at Qin Ying's location.
"Who's there?" When Qin Hao appeared, he did not hide his aura, and Qin Ying quickly noticed someone appearing beside her.
"Brother, you're finally here." After Qin Ying saw that the person was Qin Hao, she quickly went to his side, took his hand, and said happily.
"Alright, you're so big now, thousands of years old, and still so childish." Qin Hao ruffled Qin Ying's hair and said, his voice full of doting.
He and Qin Ying hadn't met in person for thousands of years. It had been 900 years in the Primal Universe and nearly 3000 years in the Primordial Universe.
"You've messed up my hair." Saying that, Qin Ying began to tidy her hair.
"Boom, boom, boom" Powerful explosions in the Universe stirred up air currents that swept across the entire Qing Lan Star, and the powerful sounds engulfed the entire planet.
"What's happening outside? Have they made their move?"
Qin Ying said, looking up at the sky, feeling the powerful energy exploding in the sky.
"I'm sorry, Brother, I shouldn't have gotten you involved." Qin Ying said apologetically. The powerful energy in the sky also surprised Qin Ying. As a core member of the Virtual Universe Corporation, she had seen quite a lot, but facing three Marquis-level Immortals, she still felt no confidence.
Her brother was a genius and had already become a World Lord, but she wasn't sure how strong he truly was. Even though she knew that World Lords in the Primitive Mystical Region were abnormal, with the strongest even having comprehension of laws comparable to Marquis-level and Champion-level.
However, even so, it was still very difficult to truly defeat a Marquis-level Immortal. How long had her elder brother been a World Lord? Even if he was very strong, it would be difficult to defeat a Marquis-level Immortal, right?
