Unfortunately, the rest of the Ten Arbiters did not expect Lu Yin to reach the top of the Vigil Pavilion before Nightking Zhenwu.
Ling Que sighed. "Not everyone is as heartless as Lu Yin. He's offending the Daynight clan to the point of death. Brother Lu, you're on your own now!"
The moment Lu Yin stepped into Evernight City, the Dayfeast had already begun.
Nightless City and the Vigil Pavilion were both part of the Dayfeast.
After the Vigil Pavilion, Lu Yin had to change locations.
That was the Night Book Pavilion, where the Daynight clan's countless years of collection of battle techniques and cultivation techniques were stored. It was open for everyone to peruse, and there was also good wine and food to accompany it. The most noteworthy thing was that every Dayfeast, the organizer would clear up any doubts that the attendees had in the Night Book Pavilion. If there was anything that they did not understand about a battle technique or cultivation technique, they could ask about it. This was a display of the Daynight clan's leadership of the younger generation.
Many people would submit to the Daynight clan's leadership on this day, and this had been the case for many generations.
This was the essence of the Dayfeast, and the Daynight clan had relied on it to attract many young elites to their side.
Lu Yin had shown off in the Vigil Pavilion, but no one paid him any attention. He had offended the Daynight clan too much, and before the situation was clear, no one dared to take the initiative to express goodwill.
Many people guessed that he would not be able to leave the Daynight Flowzone alive.
Lu Yin was still very interested in the Night Book Pavilion, as the Daynight clan's countless years of accumulation were not for show. Even after the Sixth Mainland's invasion, Nightking Planet had not been harmed.
There were no less than ten million books in the Night Book Pavilion, which meant that there were at least ten million battle techniques and cultivation techniques. Although these might not be the best, the sheer number of books was enough to shock many people.
The Night Book Pavilion was very large, and no one felt crowded as they shuttled through it.
Lu Yin met Feng Shang, the former student leader of Astral-8.
Feng Shang looked at Lu Yin with a much more distant gaze than before, as the two had been on good terms in the past.
"You've changed so much in the past few years," Feng Shang sighed.
Lu Yin replied, "I was forced. It's normal."
Feng Shang sighed. "The Outerverse has never been unified in all these years. You should know why, so be careful."
"Does the Feng family have any thoughts?" Lu Yin asked.
Feng Shang shook his head. "The Tempest Flowzone is just a small flowzone, so they don't have any thoughts. you should be more concerned about the eight Flowzones."
"Thank you," Lu Yin said.
After Feng Shang left, Lu Yin bumped into Wen Qian'er.
He wasn't familiar with Wen Qian 'er and hadn't interacted much with her. However, Wen Qian' er had a good relationship with Xi Yue and had gone through a lot on Planet Pyrolyte.
"Brother Lu, I support you," Wen Qian 'er encouraged.
Lu Yin laughed. "Wen Sansi didn't come?"
Wen Qian'er shook her head. "I don't know."
"Do you know Wen Zhaocheng?"
Wen Qian'er was puzzled. "How does Brother Lu know the elder?"
"It was a coincidence." Lu Yin did not elaborate further. The spear that the Xun family had asked for had shattered, and a beast skin had dropped out. On it was a list of names that the Xun family had colluded with the Technocracy, and the Technocracy had given the Xun family a list of people that they could cooperate with. These people were all traitors of the Human Domain, and Wen Zhaocheng was one of them.
"The elder has always been in seclusion in the family and hasn't come out for hundreds of years. Brother Lu, do you know any elders?"
Wen Qian 'er asked. She was curious, as Lu Yin shouldn't have heard of Wen Zhaocheng's name. Even she had never met this elder and had only heard of him once. No one in the family knew who he was.
Lu Yin did not answer, and he looked past Wen Qian 'er to see Starsibyl.
"Brother Lu, we meet again." Starsibyl smiled.
Wen Qian 'er pouted and left.
Lu Yin looked at Starsibyl with a deep gaze. "I never thought that you would side with Nightking Zhenwu."
Starsibyl smiled. "He stole the General Appointing Platform and can inherit the Star Tower alone. He's one of the future Five Astral Children, and he also has the Daynight clan and the entire Daynight Flowzone. Why wouldn't I help him?"
Lu Yin replied, "Everyone has their own ambitions." He then looked at Starsibyl. "The Starsibyl Sect claims to be able to divine the past and the future. Then, have you ever divined Nightking Zhenwu's future?"
"Of course. That's why I'm helping him." Starsibyl was confident.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed.
"Seventh Bro, this bitch is just trying to scare you. Don't be scared by her. Aside from the Imperial Tutor Skymender, no one else can truly predict the future!" the monkey shouted.
Lu Yin turned around and left, as he had nothing to say to this woman. The Starsibyl Sect seemed to be detached from worldly affairs, but if they were, then they would not have the Top 100 Rankings. Their goal seemed to be to incite the younger generation to compete with each other. Starsibyl seemed to be helping Nightking Zhenwu, but who knew what her true intentions were?
In any case, Lu Yin did not believe that this woman would actually help someone.
This sort of person was the best at disguising herself.
In the distance, Nightking Zhenwu was explaining battle techniques to a youth. The youth's eyes lit up as he listened, and he repeatedly bowed to Nightking Zhenwu. "Thank you, Arbiter Zhenwu. Thank you."
Nightking Zhenwu nodded reservedly.
Not long after, another person went forward to ask for guidance.
The Ten Arbiters were high and mighty, and they would only appear at a Daynight Banquet that was hosted by one of them.
This sort of opportunity was something that many people could only hope for.
Although Nightking Zhenwu was explaining things to others, his attention never left Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was still reading through the battle technique manual when Ling Que walked over. "What did Starsibyl say to you?"
Lu Yin casually answered, "Nothing."
"You don't believe me. Didn't you ask her if Nightking Zhenwu obtained it?" Ling Que winked.
Lu Yin pursed his lips.
Casanova arrived. "Brother Lu, I heard that you returned True Insight."
Lu Yin nodded.
Ling Que was unhappy, and he looked at Casanova. "Brother, do you understand that first come, first served?
I started chatting with Brother Lu first. Wait a moment. "
Casanova looked at Ling Que. "Do you have any pretty sisters in your family?"
Ling Que blinked. "Yes, what about it?"
"Introduce them to me, and I won't beat you up," Casanova said, as this was his reasoning.
Lu Yin raised a brow, and the first thing he thought of was the Spirit Palace.
Casanova's words were provocative, and anyone who heard them would be angry.
However, Ling Que's expression was strange, as he had also thought of the Spirit Palace. He then enthusiastically pulled Casanova away. "Brother, let's go. I'll introduce them to you. Listen to me, they're definitely pretty, and they're the type to be a good wife and mother. You can't …"
Casanova left with him, as he liked pretty girls.
Lu Yin looked at Casanova sympathetically. If Casanova knew that Ling Que was introducing him to the White Knight of the Ten Arbiters, he might have fainted from shock.
Just as Casanova left, Qing Longlong arrived.
Lu Yin was curious. "What's your relationship with Casanova?"
"Brother and sister," Qing Longlong coldly replied.
Lu Yin understood. She was right, as not many people had a surname like Qing.
Qing Longlong said, "You're welcome to the Gu Flowzone to play. I can give you some fun pets."
Lu Yin nodded and watched her leave. He recalled his understanding of the Gu Flowzone and felt a chill run down his spine.
The Gu Flowzone was one of the Eight Great Flowzones, but it never interacted with the outside world. It was not easy for outsiders to enter, as the space inside was filled with poisonous insects and poisonous gas. Even space-exploring powerhouses could die if they were not careful.
The pets that Qing Longlong was referring to should be poisonous insects!
Lu Yin raised his hand and took out a book that recorded some ancient history. Just as he was engrossed in reading, he heard a melodious song.
He paused and looked into the distance. The song was coming from that direction, and it spread throughout the entire Night Book Pavilion.
The song was beautiful, and Lu Yin swore that he had never heard such a beautiful voice before. It was so beautiful that it was intoxicating. More importantly, this song calmed his mind and made him feel as if he was standing aloof from worldly affairs.
The dark thoughts of revenge and slaughter that had been circling in his mind gradually faded away.
Lu Yin was shocked. What kind of song was this?
"This song is so beautiful. Where did it come from?"
"It doesn't sound like a single person singing. Could it be from the Souldream Tribe?"
"Wrong, it's from the Fireplume Tribe."
"The Fireplume Tribe?" someone exclaimed, clearly having heard of them before.
"It's rumored that the Fireplume Tribe was exterminated a long time ago, but they still exist. Are they being raised in captivity by the Daynight clan?"
…
Lu Yin finally remembered. The Fireplume Tribe. That's right, only the Fireplume Tribe had such a song. It was a song that could cleanse one's soul, and it was a tribe that possessed true kindness and beauty. It was also the tribe that Ellen Gale had chosen to blind herself in order to save Nightking Zhenwu's soul.
Lu Yin had been greatly shocked by Ellen Gale's diary. Now, he was very close to the Fireplume Tribe, and he did not know if Ellen Gale was still alive.
He had never thought that there would be such a kind race in the universe, but now that he heard this song, he believed it. This song was pure and flawless, and it was so beautiful that it could enchant one's heart.
Nightking Zhenwu smiled. The Fireplume Tribe was his pride, and he was the one who had single-handedly saved them. He had to listen to their songs every day, and even if his voice became hoarse or useless, he still wanted to hear it.
The Fireplume Tribe was his toy, and it was something that he could flaunt to the outside world.
The Fireplume Tribe's song was beautiful and pleasant, and it made it impossible for anyone to have any distracting thoughts. As for Nightking Zhenwu, who controlled the Fireplume Tribe, the crowd naturally admired him even more.
A figure entered the Night Book Pavilion, and Lu Yin sensed it. He turned around and saw Zhuo Daynight. She had finally arrived.
The moment Zhuo Daynight entered the Night Book Pavilion, she looked up and coincidentally met Lu Yin's gaze. Her gaze was calm, and it was as if she did not recognize him.
Lu Yin frowned and wanted to talk to her, but Nightqueen Yanqing stepped forward and blocked Lu Yin as she looked at Nightking Zhenwu.
Nightking Zhenwu waved at Zhuo Daynight.
Zhuo Daynight calmly walked over.
A normal member of the Daynight clan would not attract any attention.
Nightking Zhenwu exchanged a few words with Zhuo Daynight before being asked for advice by the others. Zhuo Daynight quietly stood behind Nightking Zhenwu.
Lu Yin walked over as he recalled what Nightking Zhenwu had said to him when he had defeated Lan Si. Those things would cause Zhuo Daynight to fall into the deepest despair, and he would not allow that to happen.
Nightqueen Yanqing blocked Lu Yin's path. "Brother Lu, let's chat."
Lu Yin frowned. "I'm not free." He walked past Nightqueen Yanqing and walked towards Zhuo Daynight.
"Brother Lu, be careful with your words. Otherwise, you'll know what will happen," Nightqueen Yanqing threatened in a low voice.
Lu Yin's eyes turned cold, and he paused for a moment before continuing to walk forward.
Soon, Lu Yin arrived in front of Zhuo Daynight. "You-" Zhuo Daynight looked at him coldly. "Please keep your distance." She then walked behind Nightking Zhenwu.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed.
