Chapter 79 Appointment to a Post Outside the Capital, Reunion with the Lord of Dragon's Journey

Time flies, and three months have passed in no time.

Knowing that Lu Ming was about to be transferred to another post, Liya and Lu Ming often met privately during these last three months, officially establishing their romantic relationship.

It must be said that these sweet days are quite addictive.

However, happy days are always short-lived.

"Master, you have received a new email." Alice's voice rang in Lu Ming's mind.

"mail?"

Lu Ming, who was studying marksmanship in the training room, immediately separated a wisp of his consciousness and connected it to the virtual universe network.

Virtual Universe, Primitive Zone, Lu Ming Manor.

In the study.

Lu Ming sat at his desk, looked at the screen in front of him, and quickly opened the new email.

The email's subject was precisely "Formal Appointment of Primal Secret Realm Domain Lord-Level Members"!

This external appointment is a test that the Virtual Universe Company uses to assess the core members at the domain lord level.

As a member of the Primal Secret Realm, Lu Ming was naturally appointed to the highest official position when he was sent out.

As expected, Lu Ming was appointed as the Inspector of the "Jinlan Branch" of the Virtual Universe Company, and also gained the title of Headquarters Envoy.

The Virtual Universe Company's "Jinlan Branch" in the Jinlan Universe Country is mainly divided into the Military Department, the Commerce Department, and the Military Department. The heads of these three departments are the highest-ranking officials in the Jinlan Branch.

Among them, the Martial Department is mainly responsible for managing a large number of powerful individuals directly under the Virtual Universe Company, as well as collecting and cultivating geniuses throughout the entire Jinlan Universe Kingdom.

The Ministry of Commerce is responsible for commercial matters, employing hundreds of millions of people and possessing astonishing wealth, involving a vast array of interests.

The military, however, is not a permanent department of the Virtual Universe Company in each of its universe nations.

The human race comprises 1008 cosmic nations, governed by two major powers: the Giant Axe Arena and the Virtual Universe Corporation.

Jinlan Universe Kingdom is one of the 504 universe kingdoms under the jurisdiction of Virtual Universe Company.

Therefore, within the Jinlan branch of the Virtual Universe Company, there is also a "military headquarters" that is specifically responsible for jointly managing the standing space army of the Universe Nation with the high-ranking officials of the Universe Nation itself.

The Jinlan Branch wields immense power within the Jinlan Universe Kingdom. The leaders of these three departments, in terms of status alone, are probably second only to the King of Jinlan in the entire Jinlan Universe Kingdom.

Within the Virtual Universe Company, members of the Primal Secret Realm hold a status comparable to that of an immortal god at the Marquis level. Therefore, when they are sent out, their status is equivalent to that of the three ministers, and they wield immense real power.

Moreover, the special envoy has the privilege of oversight, and can monitor the three major departments. If any abnormality is found, it can be directly reported to the headquarters, which will then handle the matter.

Lu Ming's status and position are far above that of ordinary members of the Primal Secret Realm at the Domain Lord level, which is why he has the additional identity of Special Envoy of the Headquarters.

This additional identity not only highlights his special status, but also serves as a silent warning to the other members of the Jinlan branch—you'd better not have any improper thoughts, headquarters is watching you all the time!

The email clearly stated that once Lu Ming reaches the Realm Lord level, this position will be automatically relinquished, and he will receive a reward of five million points.

During the period of external release, Virtual Universe Company will occasionally issue some special missions, and each mission will have corresponding points rewards.

"The appointment has been issued, and I will be returning to the Golden Mist Universe Kingdom." Lu Ming's eyes shone brightly, and he couldn't help but feel excited as this moment arrived.

More than seventy years have passed. What must my hometown look like now?

Lu Ming's pursuit of the path to becoming a strong person stems not only from his own desire for great strength, but also from his wish to improve the lives of those around him.

"Before that, I need to go see Teacher Longxing first!" Soon, Lu Ming sent an email to Senior Brother Suigu.

"Haha, junior brother! Wait a moment, I'll be right there to pick you up!" Even through the email, Lu Ming could feel the arrogant voice of his senior brother, Sui Gu.

Speaking of which, Senior Brother Suigu has helped him a lot. Even his current leader of the guard team has changed from the original 'Kane' to a powerful King-level Immortal named 'Lotus Rock King'.

And this "Lotus Rock King" is one of the strongest disciples under Senior Brother Suigu.

……

Crossing the endless vast starry sky, Venerable Suigu brought Lu Ming back to the outside of the Dragon-Walking Divine Palace, which possessed unfathomable power.

"Come in." The moment the two arrived, a familiar, domineering voice emanated from the depths of the majestic palace.

Boom!

In a twist of time and space, Lu Ming and Venerable Suigu suddenly appeared together in a vast and desolate space.

In front of the two, there was a towering figure shrouded in scorching chaotic air currents, standing there with an upright posture.

Wow!

The burly dragonman, clad in crimson armor, turned his gaze toward the two approaching figures.

"Teacher, my junior brother has received his appointment as a Domain Lord and will be setting off soon." Venerable Suigu looked at Lord Longxing and said respectfully with his head bowed.

"Hmm!" The Lord of Dragons nodded slightly, then flashed to appear in front of Lu Ming and the other two, even the domineering and scorching aura on his body was greatly reduced.

"You've reached this level in less than a century. Your talent is the most outstanding among my lineage so far. Even when I was young, my cultivation progress was far slower than yours!" The Dragon Lord looked at Lu Ming seriously and said with great satisfaction.

It has only been a little over seventy years since he took Lu Ming as his disciple in Chaos City.

He had already overestimated Lu Ming's cultivation speed as much as possible, but Lu Ming's ability to comprehend the essence of all 108 laws of the Time Law in just forty years after leaving Chaos City was far beyond his and Chaos's expectations.

As for Lu Ming's talent in the Path of the Beast God, it was even more astonishing, even somewhat unbelievable. He actually mastered and comprehended the first level of the Path of the Beast God while he was still at the Universe level at the time.

Even though he was the oldest among the strongest humans, having lived for countless years, he still found such an inconceivable thing utterly unbelievable.

Hearing the Lord of Dragon Journey's praise, Venerable Suigu smiled and echoed it. He could tell that Master Dragon Journey was in a very good mood.

But that's normal. Anyone would be overjoyed to have such an amazing junior disciple.

"Previously, when I asked you to come to me during your domain lord-level deployment, I intended to bestow upon you a life-saving item. However, your performance has been too outstanding, attracting the attention of the higher-ups of the three top clans. Even with this treasure, it will be difficult to cope with their endless assassination attempts."

"For your safety, I plan to secretly arrange for your main body to go to Chaos City for secluded cultivation ahead of time. As for the missions sent out, you can leave them to your other avatars."

"I wonder what you're thinking right now?" The Dragon Lord's voice was gentle, as if he were looking at Lu Ming with concern, like he was looking at his own child.

He had originally planned to bestow upon Lu Ming a powerful treasure to protect him during his time at the Domain Lord level. However, the alien races had now raised Lu Ming's threat level to a very high level. Even with this treasure, Lu Ming's Domain Lord strength couldn't guarantee he wouldn't encounter unforeseen trouble. After all, it's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark.

The only perfect solution is to have Lu Ming's true form hide away with his original core, and not show his face in public.

Even if the alien race spends a lot of money, they can at most kill one of Lu Ming's clones and then expend some energy to regenerate it.

"Teacher's kindness is too much for me to bear." Even if the Lord of Dragons hadn't mentioned it, Lu Ming wouldn't have taken his true form out to roam around.

Unlike his Ultimate Flame clone, which has no weakness in the soul, his true body is susceptible to being destroyed or even controlled by the soul. And no matter how much the higher-ups of the human race value him, they would never bestow upon him a soul treasure of a mere Domain Lord level being to save his life.

The simplest way to deal with this is to place his true form and the vital core in the Chaos City of the primordial universe.
