Lu Yin looked at Little Black and then at the girl in white in the distance. He asked, "You can't be called Xiao Bai, right?"
The girl was stunned. "You know me?"
Lu Yin was speechless. She really was Xiao Bai.
Little Black and Xiao Bai were the same color as their clothes, so they were easy to distinguish.
"Alright, that's enough. Let's go. Take me to Master," Lu Yin said.
Little Black snorted and turned away, ignoring him.
Xiao Bai also snorted and ignored him.
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Actually, what I said was true."
Little Bai and Little Black slowly turned to look at Lu Yin, fear appearing in the depths of their eyes once more.
"It's true, there's no ghost!" Lu Yin laughed.
The two girls continued to grind their teeth in anger.
"Little Black, beat him up!" Xiao Bai ordered angrily.
Little Black stood up and stared coldly at Lu Yin. His figure flashed and Xiao Bai disappeared as well.
Lu Yin was shocked. What speed! Even he could not see it clearly. Rune lines flashed in front of him, and they were no slower than the Empty Palm.
During his battle with Lan Si, Lu Yin had tried his best to dodge the Empty Palm, but now, he had changed. Whether it was in terms of speed or power, he was different from before. When faced with Little Bai's speed, Lu Yin casually struck out with a palm that shook the void. Little Bai and Little Black had been about to hit Lu Yin, but they were startled by the sudden attack and did not dare to move forward.
Lu Yin laughed. "Your speed is rare. To be honest, I haven't met anyone in the same generation as you. It's a pity that you can't hit me."
Little Bai and Little Black were furious, and they looked at each other before raising their hands and clenching their fists. Star energy erupted from their palms, forming a revolving black-and-white diagram between them that they threw at Lu Yin. "Black-And-White Pair."
Lu Yin stared at the diagram, feeling a trace of apprehension. The number of rune lines contained within it was comparable to an attack from the Ten Arbiters. The two girls were clearly just Cruisers, but they were able to unleash such an attack when working together.
In the Innerverse, even Xia Tian, who was at the top of the Top 100 Rankings, might not be able to withstand this attack without suffering any damage.
Lu Yin dodged to the side, his eyes fixed on the black and white circle. He had a feeling that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
The black and white circular pattern rotated in the sky as countless amounts of star energy gathered and fused with it. The number of rune lines within the pattern gradually expanded.
Lu Yin was shocked. "It can increase its power on its own?"
Xiao Bai was pleased. "Don't underestimate us. The power of the black and white combination is limitless. Big guy, you're definitely going to lose."
This was the first time that someone had called him a big guy, and it was rather refreshing. He was curious to see how much power the black and white combination could increase by itself; it was impossible for it to be limitless.
The black-and-white sword continued to absorb star energy, and before long, the number of rune lines within it had reached the same level as Lan Si's 150 Stacks. However, this wasn't the end, and it was still increasing in power.
Lu Yin's interest was piqued, and he kept dodging.
The void distorted as the black-and-white combination's power surpassed that of an Enlighter's, and it continued to climb. Soon, it reached a power level of 250,000.
Even with the stability of the Neoverse's void, it could still be torn apart. However, this was Everlasting Island, and a power level of 250,000 was not enough to tear through the void.
After a while, the black-and-white combination's power reached the same level as Lan Si's Empty Palm. This was the attack that had severely injured Lu Yin in the past, and it was definitely powerful. Even the other Ten Arbiters would not feel good if they were hit by this attack.
Lu Yin looked at Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei, and he noticed that their faces were somewhat pale. "Can't control it anymore?"
Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei snorted, but they stubbornly controlled the black-and-white combination.
Lu Yin shook his head as the black-and-white circular pattern slashed towards him. He raised his hand and activated his nine-lined battle force to meet it head-on.
The void distorted as a sharp gale swept through the area. Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei were forced back several steps before falling to the ground. In the distance, the black-and-white circular pattern had been crushed by Lu Yin. He was different from when he had fought Lan Si, and he was improving rapidly.
Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai looked at each other before simultaneously looking at Lu Yin. "Freak."
Lu Yin's lips twitched. "I haven't even said anything about you two. How old are you to be able to display such strength? That battle technique from before was very powerful."
Xiao Bai was pleased. "Of course! That's a black-and-white combination that only we can use. Others won't be able to learn it even if they spend their entire lives learning it."
Xiao Hei stood up and calmly said, "Don't be arrogant, Xiao Bai. Did you forget what Master said?
You must be humble. "
Xiao Bai nodded and stared at Lu Yin with a pleased expression.
Lu Yin laughed. "You've beaten me up and scared me. Shouldn't you bring me to see Master now?"
"No, you can go by yourself," Xiao Bai said proudly.
Xiao Hei raised a hand and pointed at the fault of the tallest mountain in the distance. "Master is at the bottom of the fault. You can go by yourself."
Lu Yin frowned. "Really?"
Xiao Hei was indifferent. "I don't like lying."
Lu Yin was speechless. Who was the one who had lied to him about ghosts?
Regardless of whether Xiao Hei was telling the truth or not, Lu Yin still had to go. This was Eternal Sky Island, and he could not attack two little girls. Besides, his every move would be watched by Highsage Shen Wei.
"I'll be leaving first. See you later." Lu Yin smiled and waved before quickly walking off into the distance.
Xiao Bai was fuming. "That person is too hateful. He scared me to death."
Xiao Hei was helpless. "It's your fault for being discovered."
Xiao Bai was puzzled. "That shouldn't be. With my speed, no one should be able to discover me."
Xiao Hei replied, "He even crushed the black-and-white combination. Our speed is useless against him."
"I wonder where Senior Shen Wei found such a freak. We'll definitely teach him a lesson in the future." Xiao Bai was unwilling to give up, and a crafty glint appeared in her eyes.
Xiao Hei nodded and seriously considered how to deal with Lu Yin.
Eternal Sky Island was not large, but it also depended on where it was compared to. If one could not fly or tear through the void, then Eternal Sky Island was considered large.
It took Lu Yin half a day to reach the highest point of the cliff, where Highsage Shen Wei was already waiting for him.
"Face the cliff and thank Master for allowing you to compete for the Star Tower on behalf of Eternal Sky Island," Shen Wei said solemnly.
Lu Yin hurriedly bowed. "Junior Lu Yin thanks Senior."
Shen Wei looked at Lu Yin solemnly. "Lu Yin, Master will give you two choices. The first is to become an honorary disciple of Eternal Sky Island, and you will not be under Master's tutelage. You can leave at any time. The second is to join Eternal Sky Island, and from then on, my master will be your master. You will be the fourth official disciple of Eternal Sky Island. Choose one."
Lu Yin replied, "I already have a master."
Shangsheng Shen Wei continued, "That's why your master gave you a choice. Some people don't care if you have a master or not. You can have more than one master, but that's not the case in Everlasting Sky Island. If you want to join Everlasting Sky Island, you must sever all ties with your previous master.
Lu Yin did not hesitate and bowed deeply towards the cliff. "Junior Lu Yin is not talented, but Master's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain. I cannot forsake it."
Shen Wei's eyes flashed. "Think carefully. I can clearly tell you that Eternal Sky Island's Elysian Heavenly Master is one of the top powerhouses of the Fifth Mainland, and he is someone who truly stands at the peak. He has lived for countless years and has only taken in three disciples. You are one of the rare geniuses that catches his eye, so I will give you a chance to choose again."
Lu Yin bowed again. "Junior thanks Master for his praise. I will never forget Master's kindness to me, and I cannot forsake it."
Shen Wei sighed. "I thought you were smart, but it's a pity that you missed out on the greatest opportunity."
He knew that the Elysian Heavenly Master of Everlasting Sky Island was definitely extraordinary, but Mister Mu had shown him too much kindness. Without Mister Mu, he would have died countless times over. Even if he was a Progenitor, he would not have betrayed Mister Mu, let alone the fact that the Elysian Heavenly Master was one of the strongest powerhouses in the world.
Mister Mu might not be any weaker than the Elysian Heavenly Master.
"Actually, I didn't think that Master would take a liking to you before coming here. After all, Master has been away from worldly affairs for many years and has no intention of taking in disciples. I didn't think that you would reject him. What a pity," Shen Wei sighed.
Lu Yin was curious. "Aren't Little Black and Xiao Bai disciples?"
"They're just honorary disciples like you. Long Sky Island has many honorary disciples. Apart from junior apprentice-brother Ryan, none of them caught master's attention. It's the same for Little Black and Little White. They'll leave Long Sky Island one day," said Shangsheng Shen Wei.
Lu Yin nodded and did not say anything else. His goal was to participate in the Star Tower contest, and in-name disciples were enough.
"Right, Senior." "You can call me Senior Brother. In-Name disciples are still disciples," Shen Wei said casually.
Lu Yin nodded. "Senior Brother Shen Wei, you said that Eternal Sky Island would send two disciples to participate in the Star Tower contest. I would like to meet them."
Shen Wei's expression turned strange, and he coughed. "Well, haven't you met them already?"
Lu Yin was confused. "Met them?"
Hold on, his expression changed. "It can't be Little Black and Xiao Bai, right?"
High Sage Shen Wei coughed again. "Wait here. Master has something to discuss with me." He then disappeared.
Lu Yin was speechless; it really was Little White and Xiao Bai. No wonder Shen Wei had such a strange expression on the spacecraft; he had been waiting for Lu Yin.
Little Black and Little White were clearly underage girls, and one look was enough to tell that they didn't know their place. Who knew what kind of trouble they would cause? Rather than fighting for the Star Tower with them, it would be better for Lu Yin to go alone. No, wait. Lu Yin suddenly thought of a possibility. Since Highsage Shen Wei had brought him to Everlasting Island, could it be that he wanted to capture a babysitter so that he could protect these two girls while they fought for the Star Tower?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Lu Yin felt like he had fallen into a trap; the two girls could cause trouble for no reason at all. He felt like the bright path ahead of him had suddenly turned dark.
At the same time, Shen Wei arrived at the depths of Eternal Sky Island. "Master, what do you think of this child?"
"Haha, although I don't know who his master is, he can't be simple to nurture such a disciple. Forget it, let him be an in-name disciple."
"Yes, Master."
"By the way, doesn't the Sirius Sect owe us a lot of spots to exchange disciples?"
Shen Wei's eyes lit up. "Yes, the Sirius Sect has always sent disciples to take the Longbridge in exchange for allowing our disciples to cultivate in the Sirius Sect. It's a pity that Master hasn't been able to find a suitable disciple."
"Hmph, those people are too weak. Going to the Sirius Sect is a disgrace to Eternal Sky Island. Little Black and Xiao Bai aren't bad, but their temperaments need to be improved. They'll just be playing around there. Let's just let this child go."
