Third-tier Great Emperor!
Indeed.
Ye Xuan had been at the peak of second-tier Great Emperor for a long time. Now, with 10 low-grade Emperor Crystals, absorbing them would undoubtedly allow him to become a third-tier Great Emperor, further enhancing his strength considerably.
"Since that's the case, I shall break through to third-tier Great Emperor."
Thinking this, Ye Xuan no longer hesitated. He flipped his right hand, producing the 10 low-grade Emperor Crystals. A force of absorption immediately drew the energy from the 10 low-grade Emperor Crystals into his body.
Terrifying energy surged through Ye Xuan's limbs and bones. It could be said that Ye Xuan was growing stronger at an extremely rapid pace every second.
One!
Three! Five!!
As Ye Xuan finished absorbing the sixth low-grade Emperor Crystal, his aura finally strengthened, transforming him from a second-tier Great Emperor to a third-tier Great Emperor.
Mighty power surged around him. However, after reaching third-tier Great Emperor, Ye Xuan clearly felt his progress slow down significantly.
With the remaining four low-grade Emperor Crystals, he had only improved slightly.
"It seems that to quickly advance to fourth-tier Great Emperor, also known as intermediate Great Emperor, I will need more low-grade Emperor Crystals, or Emperor Crystals of higher quality."
Ye Xuan pondered this, and indeed, it was the reality.
The Great Emperor realm consisted of nine tiers, with each tier representing a vast difference. Not to mention the leap from third to fourth tier, the transition from an initial Great Emperor to an intermediate Great Emperor.
In a sense, this was a qualitative improvement.
"Fourth-tier Great Emperor, I wonder when I can break through."
Ye Xuan murmured. At this moment, Luo Tianyi, after arriving at Longyu Group, was implementing drastic reforms within the company.
Her first move was to integrate all industries under Ye Xuan's and her own names, and then to swallow up company after company. After such a long period of honing her skills, Luo Tianyi was finally beginning to make a name for herself in the business world.
Even Li Ruobing, witnessing the series of reforms, was impressed.
With Luo Tianyi's drive, Longyu Group directly expanded beyond China, rapidly becoming an international powerhouse and a multinational conglomerate. The blueprint for Luo Tianyi's business empire began to take shape at this very moment.
Furthermore, the first major undertaking by Longyu Group was to establish a deep strategic partnership with the Best Empire, covering various fields. This, of course, was not known to the outside world.
After all, Luo Tianyi was one of the few who knew that her man was the ruler of the Best Empire.
...
Time flew by, and Longyu Group developed at an astonishing pace.
Until one day, a month later.
While browsing Xinghe Mall, a voice suddenly sounded in Ye Xuan's mind.
"Ding! Host has triggered a random mission: Assist Luo Tianyi in developing Longyu Group to have assets exceeding 1 trillion RMB!"
"Mission Option One: Accept mission, receive tenfold rebate, capped at 8,000 Xinghe Coins, with an additional 20 low-grade Emperor Crystals!"
"Mission Option Two: Reject mission, wealth will shrink by 30%!"
Hearing the system's voice, Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback.
"Develop Longyu Group to have assets exceeding 1 trillion?"
However, compared to the mission itself, Ye Xuan was more concerned about the rewards: 8,000 Xinghe Coins and 20 low-grade Emperor Crystals. The temptation was undeniable.
"This is rather interesting."
Ye Xuan smiled slightly and then summoned You Nai, "You Nai, help me estimate the current assets of Longyu Group."
"Understood, Master."
"Estimating Longyu Group's assets..."
"Beep! Master, Longyu Group's asset estimation is successful. The current estimated asset value of Longyu Group is 623.1 billion RMB, including all its subsidiary industries."
Huh!?
Hearing You Nai's voice, Ye Xuan frowned slightly. Over 600 billion?
This meant that to complete the mission, Longyu Group's assets needed to increase by another 400 billion RMB, which was no small sum.
Although he had many methods, to ensure the long-term development of Longyu Group, he needed to choose a good project.
Considering this.
Ye Xuan fell silent, his mind racing. Soon, an idea came to him.
"That's right, arms and gene serum resources."
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. To build Longyu Group into an unparalleled commercial empire on Blue Star, this could be a perfect breakthrough point.
Of course, Ye Xuan also noticed Luo Tianyi's efforts during this period, and this would be a way to help her.
"You Nai, help me build a mall, named 'Longyu Tianwang'. Its primary function will be to sell arms, gene serums, and various physique-enhancing supplements to countries and major top-tier powers."
"Understood, Master."
Upon receiving Ye Xuan's command, You Nai began creating the software at an extremely rapid pace. Five seconds later, "Master, Longyu Tianwang has been successfully created. Master can access it through any means."
"Additionally, You Nai has equipped Longyu Tianwang with a defense system that surpasses current technology by a hundred years, so there is no need to worry about hacker intrusions."
"Excellent."
Hearing You Nai's words, Ye Xuan nodded with satisfaction. Then, with a flip of his right hand, a USB drive appeared in his palm.
At this moment, Luo Tianyi, who had been busy all day, emerged from the bathroom after taking a shower. However, she quickly composed herself, not wanting to let her negative emotions be seen by her man.
Clearly, to avoid worrying Ye Xuan, Luo Tianyi had gone to great lengths.
Little did she know that her emotional fluctuations could never be hidden from Ye Xuan.
"Wife, you've worked hard during this time."
Looking at the woman who was trying her best to conceal her feelings, Ye Xuan sighed softly and pulled Luo Tianyi into his embrace. Hearing her husband's words, Luo Tianyi's beautiful eyes flickered, with tears threatening to fall. No one knew how she had endured this period.
"I'm... I'm fine."
Luo Tianyi took a deep breath. "I just... don't want to hold you back."
"Silly girl."
Ye Xuan affectionately tapped Luo Tianyi's smooth, fair forehead. "If you're like this, your husband will worry even more."
"However, I have an idea that should help you."
Pausing for a moment, Ye Xuan continued, "But before that, let me give you a gift."
Then, Ye Xuan's index finger glowed, and in the next moment, it entered Luo Tianyi's forehead.
"What is this??"
Luo Tianyi felt as if something new had appeared in her mind. Ye Xuan chuckled, "This is an intelligent optical computer, just like the one you saw on the spaceship. It's technology from beyond Blue Star."
"It can help you organize and explore the best next steps, allowing you to be freed from tedious tasks as much as possible."
As he said this, noticing Luo Tianyi's slight frown, Ye Xuan continued, "You can think of it as a supercomputer based on nanotechnology."
Then, Ye Xuan conveniently handed the USB drive to Luo Tianyi.
"Here, use the intelligent optical computer to look at this USB drive. The contents inside might allow Longyu Group to become an unparalleled commercial empire on Blue Star in the shortest possible time."
Luo Tianyi, "..."
"Is this real?"
Luo Tianyi looked at her husband with suspicion. While this guy was the owner of the entire Blue Star, this seemed a bit too unbelievable. However, upon using the intelligent optical computer to view the 'Longyu Tianwang' on the USB drive, Luo Tianyi's spirit was suddenly invigorated, "Honey, you... you're actually selling all sorts of arms and gene serums through Longyu Tianwang, my god, you're crazy!!"
