Daniel stared blankly at Lu Yin's departing figure, not knowing what to do. Force this person to stay?
Putting aside whether or not he could stay, Master Yuan wasn't far away and could arrive in the blink of an eye. But if this person was allowed to leave, who would compensate the Dark Phoenix Tribe for their losses?
While Daniel was pondering this, Lu Yin was already nowhere to be seen.
Someone couldn't help but remind him, "Chief, he's running away."
"Shut up!" Daniel Phineas barked, startling the person.
Zephyrus smiled bitterly. In this situation, it was better for Lu Yin to leave than to stay. As for the tribe's losses, he would have to bear them himself.
What they did not know was that if not for the possibility of a fire dragon emerging from the Heavenfire Stone, Lu Yin would have already absorbed all sixteen layers of black flames. At that time, they would have to meet even if they did not want to.
Although Lu Yin had not absorbed all of the black flames, it did not matter. The black flames would not be able to escape, and once the heat from the Heavenfire Stone was depleted, he could come back again.
The Dark Phoenix Tribe's black flames reminded him of the Phoenix family. If the Dark Phoenix Tribe had such terrifying flames, then the Phoenix family and the Blaze Realm would only be stronger. They were all treasures.
Absorbing the Dark Phoenix Tribe's black flames was a pleasant surprise, and Lu Yin left the Dark Phoenix Tribe's territory with a sense of exhilaration. He looked back and saw that no one was chasing him, so he sped up and left.
His trip this time was exceptionally smooth, and Lu Yin used his special privileges to return to Frostwave Weave via the military express route. The entire trip took less than ten days.
When he saw Zenyu Star, he felt a sense of familiarity.
Although they had only been apart for half a year, the near-death experience felt like an eternity.
News of Lu Yin's return quickly spread, and the entire Frostwave Weave was in an uproar once again.
The various weaves of the Great Eastern Alliance sent their congratulations, and many people wanted to inquire about the situation in the Innerverse, but Lu Yin rejected them all with the excuse that he was recovering from his injuries.
After returning to Zenyu Star, the first thing Lu Yin did was toss the remains of the giant mechanical monster that had attacked Hui Kong from the Technocracy to the Twelfth Imperial Squadron so that they could study the materials.
The Twelfth Imperial Squadron also gave Lu Yin a pleasant surprise: 3,000 androids.
These androids were created from blueprints that Lu Yin had obtained from his die. Each android had the power of an Explorer, and they had played a huge role during the war.
However, there had only been a few hundred of them back then, and each one only had the power level of an Explorer. Now, there were 3,000 enhanced androids in front of Lu Yin. Although their power levels were still at the Explorer realm, they were already very close to that of a Cruiser. As for their defensive capabilities, they were already comparable to a Cruiser's.
Three thousand Cruiser level androids were enough to shock the Outerverse.
Back then, more than half of the captains of the Great Yu Empire's Thirteen Imperial Squadrons had only been Cruisers, which showed just how shocking 3,000 androids were to the outside world.
That was not all. Ban Jiu had found quite a number of rare materials within the Great Eastern Alliance and was thinking of ways to synthesize them. Once he succeeded, the androids would be upgraded once again.
The benefits of unifying half of the Outerverse were apparent, as there were all sorts of materials available. Lu Yin's King Zishan palace had also been remodeled, and all of the secret rooms had been constructed with the toughest materials that could withstand a Hunter's attack. There was even a lockbreaking room that had been specially prepared, and it had been constructed with Spiritual Thread.
As the leading power of the Great Eastern Alliance, the Great Yu Empire was the leading power in both its economy and military. In the past, the Great Yu Empire had still needed the support of the Nalan family and the other major corporations to support its economy, but now, Zenyu Star alone was enough to support the Great Yu Empire's economy.
There was also the street where the mainland's Auction House was located. Every inch of land had been worth thousands of times, or even tens of thousands of times, and many financial groups had been squeezed out.
Now, all of them were large financial groups that could move unhindered through weaves, and almost all of them were large financial groups that could move unhindered through dozens of weaves.
Even some of the financial groups that had crossed weaves could not support the Auction House, as they were not qualified to enter.
Although the mainland's Auction House had not been able to provide Lu Yin with any high-quality goods over the past half a year, with its current reputation, it had received many rare treasures that were enough to support the tri-monthly auction of high-quality goods. This had also brought Lu Yin quite a bit of money, but Lu Yin did not care about this money as he had invested it all into the newly established mainland charity.
"The outside world has been saying that I've died, but there hasn't been any chaos in the empire?" Lu Yin asked curiously. Across from him were Wei Rong, En Ya, Huan Sha, Gavin, Hill Auna, and the others.
Hill Auna was the Foreign Affairs Minister, and he was also a member of the cabinet. He was the first to speak. "The Hall of Honor guaranteed that regardless of whether or not anything happened to Your Highness, the Great Yu Empire would be guaranteed a thousand years of peace."
Lu Yin understood. A thousand years of peace was enough to make many corporations green with envy. This meant that this was another Myriad City, and it was even an enhanced version of it.
"Your Highness, there's something that I feel should be put on the agenda," Gavin said with a solemn expression. "The Great Yu Empire cannot only have a Royal Regent."
When he said this, the crowd was moved, but they were not surprised.
In reality, Lu Yin's status had already been discussed by countless people in the empire. If the Great Yu Empire had still been the Great Yu Empire of the past, then there would have been no problem. However, Lu Yin was now the Great Eastern Alliance Leader and the commander of the Outerverse Allied Armies. Any one of these statuses surpassed that of the Great Yu Empire's emperor. However, he had yet to ascend to the throne, which caused many people to discuss this matter, especially within the Great Eastern Alliance.
Wendy Yushan was also under a great deal of pressure. She had no desire for power, but everyone was pointing fingers at her. Aside from her, there was no one else more qualified than Lu Yin to inherit the throne.
Lu Yin muttered to himself, as he himself had forgotten about this matter.
Ever since he had become the Great Eastern Alliance Leader, the position of emperor of the Great Yu Empire no longer held any appeal to him. However, he had not considered the troubles that his current status might bring him.
"Let's put this matter on hold for a while," Lu Yin said.
Gavin wanted to say something else, but he was stopped by Hill Auna.
Wei Rong spoke up. "Your Highness, during the seven months that you were gone, the empire's infiltration of the western weaves has sped up significantly. After your return, several weaves in the central weaves have been willing to join the Great Eastern Alliance."
Lu Yin nodded. "Discuss this matter with Wang Wen and En Ya. You know what to do with those who refuse to join the alliance. The title of commander of the Outerverse Allied Armies cannot go to waste."
Wei Rong smiled. "Understood."
"Your Highness, the Nalan family sent news yesterday …"
…
The Great Yu Empire, the even larger Great Eastern Alliance, and the even larger Outerverse. There were many things that Lu Yin had to deal with, and there were many things that only he could handle. He had no choice but to delegate his authority time and time again.
Gavin and the others only left when the sky darkened.
After they left, Wendy Yushan arrived.
Lu Yin felt as if a lifetime had passed as he looked at Wendy Yushan. "I almost died. I thought that I would never see you again."
Wendy Yushan's gaze turned cold. "What happened?"
Lu Yin would not say much to anyone else, but he had said a lot to Wendy Yushan. There were some things that needed to be vented.
Wendy Yushan's gaze turned cold. "Nightking Zhenwu, this person is not easy to deal with."
"I know, and I won't be impulsive. We've already fought once, and I won't lose the next time we meet." Lu Yin was confident.
Wendy Yushan muttered, "The Daosource Sect is in ruins.
There are more people now. "
"It's normal for the Sixth Mainland to retreat. Don't go there for the time being. You might have been recognized after that battle in the astral graveyard."
Not long after, Wendy Yushan left.
Lu Yin muttered to himself for a moment before opening his gadget. A person appeared on his screen: Wang Wen.
"Your Highness Chesspiece, long time no see." Wang Wen smiled happily.
Lu Yin's expression turned serious. "I'm going to deal with the Daynight clan."
Wang Wen's expression changed. "What did you say?
Say it again. "
Lu Yin spoke in a low voice. "I'm going to deal with the Daynight clan. Help me think of a way."
Wang Wen's eyes lit up, and his lips unconsciously curled upwards. He could not suppress the excitement in his heart, or rather, his desire to fight. "Interesting. I guessed that after unifying the Outerverse, you would target the Innerverse's large clans. I originally thought that it would be the Blaze Realm or the Ross Empire, but I didn't expect it to be the Daynight clan. Chesspiece Bro, your appetite is too big."
"Can you do it?" Lu Yin asked seriously.
Wang Wen asked, "Is there a way to deal with a powerhouse with a power level of a million?"
"Yes," Lu Yin replied.
"Is there a way to deal with tens of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of Daynight soldiers?"
"Yes."
"Is there a way to erase the Daynight clan's influence in the Hall of Honor?"
"Yes."
"Is there a way to delay the reinforcements from the Daynight clan's allies?"
"Yes."
"Then, one last question." Wang Wen's expression was unprecedentedly serious. "Do you have the determination to defeat Nightking Zhenwu?"
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold, and his lips cracked into a smile. "Of course I do."
Wang Wen laughed. "Alright, then let's play a game of chess. Our opponent is the Daynight clan." A chess piece inexplicably appeared in his hand, and he viciously smashed it onto the table, shattering it.
Lu Yin clenched his fist, and the void trembled like a war drum. From this moment on, he would treat the Daynight clan as his mortal enemy. He would use the entire Outerverse's power to destroy the Daynight clan and Nightking Zhenwu.
In a secret room in King Zishan's palace, Lu Yin looked around. This place had clearly been modified, and the walls were sturdier than before. It was said that they could even block a Hunter's attack. Although that was a bit exaggerated, it should be able to prevent the shockwaves from cultivation from spreading.
Aside from the walls being modified, nothing else had changed.
Lu Yin swept out with his domain and then sat down. He raised his hand, and his die appeared.
It was time to upgrade his external items. There were many things that he needed to do at the moment, and upgrading his external items was a small matter. He had already replenished his stock of Heavenfire Stones, and using them to cultivate was the most important thing for him to do. He also needed to enter the Daosource Sect's ruins and absorb the second cauldron qi.
Lu Yin's spiritual force was very strong, but he had never learned how to use it. The Daynight Fist was the only technique that could use spiritual force to attack, but it was still too crude. Lu Yin hoped that he could use the Daynight clan's ancient stone to obtain an attack technique similar to the Nightking's Heaven-Splitting Technique, which would definitely increase his power level.
He had to take things one step at a time, and he had to upgrade his external items first.
He tapped the die, causing it to spin before finally stopping. Pips 1 was a common sight, as it was the most common roll.
A medicinal herb fell down in front of him, and it emitted a fluorescent light. Lu Yin carefully examined it, but he discovered that it was just an ordinary herb. He was a little disappointed, but he recovered his die and tapped it again. This time, his luck was better, and he rolled Pips.
