The commotion caused by the battle in outer space was too great, and it attracted the attention of the surrounding weaves' armies.
The elder from the Daynight clan fought with Lu Yin for twenty minutes, but he was unable to break through Lu Yin's defenses. He had no choice but to leave. "Kid, it won't end well for you to make an enemy out of the Daynight clan. Think about it carefully."
Lu Yin quietly watched the Daynight clan member leave. Even the dead Enlighter had been taken away.
The Daynight clan did not want anyone else to know about this, and neither did Lu Yin. His position was not stable yet, and it would be detrimental to the Great Eastern Alliance if he exposed a mortal enemy like the Daynight clan.
Everyone knew that he had a conflict with the Daynight clan, but it had not reached the point where they would fight to the death.
After the elder from the Daynight clan left, Ku Wei put away the piece of dead wood and rushed over to Lu Yin. "You knew that someone was going to attack us, didn't you? You deliberately lured me out."
Lu Yin's tone turned sour. "Evidence."
Ku Wei was furious. "What bullshit evidence? You were able to kick me out of the way right before they attacked, which proves that you have the ability to discover them. Why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't discover their abilities. You saw it for yourself. That old man's power level is extremely high."
Ku Wei gritted his teeth and glared at Lu Yin. "Only a fool would believe you."
"It's up to you to believe it or not." Lu Yin did not care.
Ku Wei ground his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do about Lu Yin. He was truly afraid, as he had almost been finished. That old freak had a power level of over 400,000. Fortunately, he had brought that piece of dead wood with him. Otherwise, that spiritual force attack would have turned him into a fool even if he had not died. At that time, Progenitor Chen's tomb and the Ku family's great legacy would have been gone.
Of course, Lu Yin had done this on purpose. With someone from the Seven Courts by his side, it was necessary to test the waters from time to time. He had originally thought that Ku Wei's imminent danger would attract the older generation of powerhouses from the Seven Courts, but he had not expected the guy to survive on his own.
The foundations of these ancient powers were truly unfathomable.
"What was that piece of dead wood that you were hiding behind?" Lu Yin asked curiously.
Ku Wei unhappily answered, "I picked it up. I don't know."
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "Is that so? Think about it."
Ku Wei was just about to open his mouth to express his anger when he saw Lu Yin's icy glare. It was as if he wanted to beat someone up. Ku Wei panicked, and his anger made him lose all reason. He had forgotten that this person had defeated one of the Ten Arbiters, and that Lu Yin was comparable to a top descendant of the Seven Courts. Ku Wei was no match for Lu Yin, and he was hoping that Lu Yin would help him.
Suddenly, Ku Wei's anger vanished, and he forced a smile onto his face. "I'm sorry, Your Highness, but I remember now. That's my Ku family's unique treasure, the Time Withered Wood. I don't know how it was created, but its defensive capabilities are quite high. When I was out on a mission, my elders gave me a piece of it."
"Does your Ku family have a lot of Time Withered Wood?"
Ku Wei hurriedly shook his head. "Very little." Seeing that Lu Yin did not seem to believe him, Ku Wei grew anxious. "Your Highness, it really is very little. How can there be many treasures that can withstand an attack with a power level of over 400,000?
I'm sure Your Highness won't have more than two. "
Lu Yin replied, "Don't worry, I won't ask you for it. What's the rush?"
Ku Wei's mouth twitched, as he did not trust Lu Yin's character at all. It was not as if he did not know that Lu Yin loved money.
"Since your Ku family has the Time Withered Wood, then what about the other families of the Seven Courts?"
Ku Wei thought about it. "Basically all of them have it. The Ce family has the Motionless Chessboard, the You family has the Styx, and so on. After all, it would be impossible for them to resist the Hall of Honor without some trump cards."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed, and he was even more certain of his previous guess. The Neoverse definitely had not used its full strength to resist the Sixth Mainland.
The Sixth Mainland had been able to suppress the Fifth Mainland because of that inexplicable suppression, as well as the power, bloodlines, martial seals, and secret techniques bestowed upon them by the Third Progenitor.
The Seven Courts originated from a Progenitor, and every family should have similar methods. The Hall of Honor had been able to suppress the Seven Courts, which meant that they had even more such methods. However, Lu Yin had not seen any of them during the battle in the Cosmic Sea.
What was the Neoverse thinking?
Lu Yin's imagination ran wild, and Ku Wei grew more and more anxious. He was afraid that Lu Yin would force him to hand over the Time Withered Wood, so he hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, will that old guy from the Daynight clan come?
Should we report this to the Hall of Honor? "
Lu Yin replied, "There's no point in reporting it. The Hall of Honor monitors the humans, but they still need evidence. Besides, I haven't been killed yet, so the Hall of Honor can't do anything."
"Those fellows are really daring to make a move on you. If they really kill you, then the entire Daynight clan will suffer," Ku Wei said angrily.
Lu Yin shook his head. "It depends on the timing. There's a high chance that Nightking Zhenwu will become one of the Five Astral Children, and the Daynight clan has become a Hall of Honor family because of the Commander Appointment Platform. Even the Hall of Honor will have to give the Daynight clan some face."
At this point, Lu Yin suddenly realized something. Why was he discussing this with Ku Wei?
"Let's go to the Dark Phoenix Clan," Lu Yin said.
Ku Wei was shocked. "Are we really going to the Dark Phoenix Clan?"
"Obviously."
…
The Dark Phoenix Clan had announced that their clan would be sealed for a hundred years, and all the major powers that were on good terms with them had received the notice.
The sixteen layers of black flames had shaken the Outerverse, and no one had been able to pass through them. Even the Phoenix family had been afraid of them.
However, everything had changed after Lu Yin's visit.
Out of the sixteen layers of black flames, only the last layer remained. Even though this layer was the most powerful and was enough to strike fear into the hearts of Envoys, it was still too thin. It was so thin that one could see the entire Blackflame Continent through it.
This feeling was like wearing a transparent coat that could not completely cover the inside. For a large clan like the Dark Phoenix Clan, this was rather embarrassing.
The entire Dark Phoenix Clan was cursing Lu Yin.
Now, the Dark Phoenix Clan was facing an awkward situation. They had sealed their clan for a hundred years, and the last layer of black flames could not completely cover them. This was rather embarrassing. If they had not sealed their clan, then the notice they had sent to the outside world would have been child's play.
Because of this, the Dark Phoenix Clan had been discussing this matter for a long time.
On this day, just as Daniel Phineas was continuing the clan meeting, the last layer of black flames distorted.
They would never forget this scene, as this was what had happened when the fifteenth layer of black flames had disappeared.
Daniel Phineas and the rest hurriedly rushed to the edge of the Blackflame Continent, and they saw Lu Yin through the last layer of black flames.
An indescribable feeling of grievance, resentment, helplessness, and regret lingered in Daniel Phineas's heart. Finally, he roared, "What are you trying to do, Lu Yin?!"
Lu Yin pursed his lips as the Heavenfire Stone continued to absorb the last layer of black flames. Ku Wei stood beside him while the Dark Phoenix Clan's cultivators who were guarding the continent stood behind them.
Through the layer of black flames, Lu Yin could see the furious gazes of Daniel Phineas and the rest, and he felt a little embarrassed.
His current actions were no different from theft. No, it was not theft, it was robbery.
Ku Wei stepped forward. "Our Highness saw that this continent was being burned by the black flames and could not bear to see the residents suffer, so he came to save them. There's no need to thank him."
Lu Yin sighed when he heard this. These words were well said. He had come to save the ordinary people who were suffering from the high temperatures of the Blackflame Continent. He was doing a good deed.
Daniel Phineas was so angry that his entire body trembled. The higher-ups of the Dark Phoenix Clan around him were furious as well, and many of them cursed, "Shameless! Despicable!"
"How can he say such things? This bandit!"
"Only an idiot would believe him."
…
Lu Yin raised his head with a solemn expression. "Clan Leader Daniel, I heard that the Blackflame Continent is being roasted by the flames. You must be suffering unimaginable pain from the high temperatures. Since I'm the commander of the Outerverse Allied Forces and the Great Eastern Alliance's Alliance Leader, I cannot ignore this."
Ku Wei loudly replied, "Hurry up and thank the Alliance Leader! Prepare some food and wine to welcome him!"
Another wave of curses rang out from the Dark Phoenix Clan, all of them directed at Ku Wei. This guy was a standard lackey.
Lu Yin also realized that this guy had a lot of potential.
At this point, many of the Dark Phoenix Clan's members had shifted their anger from Lu Yin to Ku Wei. This guy was too infuriating.
"Alliance Leader Lu, please be merciful," Daniel Phineas hurriedly said. He did not wish for the last layer of black flames to be absorbed by Lu Yin.
However, Lu Yin acted as if he did not hear him.
Ku Wei shouted, "No need to be polite. Our Alliance Leader will not feel tired for your safety. Don't worry, we will definitely absorb all of the black flames. We will also find a way to find the person who released the black flames and make the culprit apologize to the entire Blackflame Continent."
Daniel Phineas grew anxious. "Alliance Leader Lu, these are the black flames of my Dark Phoenix Clan. Please be merciful."
Ku Wei shouted back, "No need to be polite. You're too polite, Patriarch Daniel."
"Alliance Leader Lu …"
"Patriarch Daniel …"
Countless Dark Phoenix Clan members gritted their teeth at Ku Wei, their hatred for him reaching the heavens.
Ku Wei did not care at all. This was just a clan from the Outerverse that had been chased out from the Innerverse. Just mentioning their name would scare them to death.
Separated by a layer of black flames, no matter how loudly Daniel Phineas shouted, he was disrupted by Ku Wei. In the end, the last layer of black flames was absorbed by the Heavenfire Stone.
This layer of black flames was extremely powerful, and Lu Yin could feel the Heavenfire Stone burning as he held it.
He felt that if he had not used his die to upgrade the Heavenfire Stone, then perhaps the stone's ability to withstand the flames would have caused that fire dragon to appear.
When the black flames completely disappeared, Daniel Phineas and the rest felt their hearts sink. The sixteen layers of black flames that their ancestor had set up to protect them were completely gone. Their Dark Phoenix Clan had lost the right to be a sealing clan, and they had also lost the ability to defend against Envoys.
In just a few short years, the three great powers of the Outerverse that could not be provoked had been pulled down from their pedestals by Lu Yin. The Temple of Tai Mo had submitted to him, and they had lost the protection of Ancestor Arrow Mountain. They did not dare to resist Lu Yin at all.
Even Wan Qiancheng did not dare to offend Lu Yin. No matter how wealthy Wan Qiancheng was, it was still a war fortress that was restricted by the commander of the Outerverse Allied Forces. If Lu Yin wanted to, he could make Wan Qiancheng appear anywhere in the Outerverse at any time. There was only one reason for that: a powerful enemy could invade that place.
Finally, the Dark Phoenix Clan had its sixteen layers of black flames absorbed by Lu Yin. Coupled with the death of Ancestor Daniel Phineas, the clan had completely lost its ability to intimidate the Outerverse.
The once glorious three great powers had completely declined, and they had been replaced by the Great Eastern Alliance.
With the fig leaf gone, the Dark Phoenix Clan no longer dared to provoke Lu Yin. They had no one to reason with, so they had no choice but to follow Ku Wei's instructions and host a banquet for Lu Yin.
Ku Wei was very happy, as he liked to see people who clearly wanted to eat him up but still had to welcome him with a smile. It was a very satisfying feeling.
