Regardless of whether or not his cosmic ring had been taken away, he would still be captured by the Witch Spirit God without any room for resistance. This day had been set in stone the moment he had set foot in the Neoverse.
Lu Yin looked up at the dark surface and thought about it for a long time. Perhaps this was the end for him, and his only hope was Mister Mu. However, it was unlikely that Mister Mu would be able to take him away from the Eternal Kingdom, and it was questionable whether Mister Mu would even be able to find the Eternal Kingdom. The Neohuman Alliance had been encircled and suppressed, but it had still been able to exist for countless years. If it was that easy to find, then it would not be the Neohuman Alliance.
Silver did not rush Lu Yin, and he simply watched him with the same smile on his face.
Lu Yin muttered to himself for a moment before asking, "Silver, do you have any human emotions?"
Silver's smile gradually disappeared, and he looked at Lu Yin's back. "Perhaps. I've been very courteous to you, Captain."
Lu Yin sighed. "You can leave. I'll absorb the death energy."
Silver shrugged. "Then I'll take my leave, Captain. The next time we meet, you might not be you anymore. Goodbye. Oh, no, there's no possibility of us meeting again." He then turned and left.
Lu Yin looked in the direction of the crater. He had no other choice in the Eternal Kingdom, and stalling for time was not an option. Even though Silver had been very courteous to him and the Witch Spirit God had not done anything to him, he knew that if he tried to stall for time, he would be forced into a passive transformation that he could not control.
If he took the initiative to absorb the death energy, then he would have a sliver of hope with his ability to suppress it. However, if he was passive, then he would be easily discovered.
Lu Yin was a decisive person, and he had the courage to become the first person in history to unite the Outerverse. He had even succeeded in doing so, so he naturally had the courage to try absorbing the death energy.
If he could not avoid it, then he would take the initiative. He had accepted his fate, but he had accepted that he had to absorb the death energy and not that his mind would be affected by it. Of course, this was also a small consolation and hope in his heart. Hope was minuscule, but it was still hope.
Lu Yin released his domain and then contracted it. The death energy was drawn over and absorbed into his body while he silently recited the Stonewall Scriptures. The more dangerous the situation, the more the scriptures gave him a sense of security and miracles.
In the distance, Silver turned back and saw Lu Yin absorbing the death energy. His eyes flashed, and he turned to leave. "Goodbye, Captain."
On the surface of Eternal Kingdom, within the Divine Witch Spirit's black tower, Ghost Monkey's shadow was trembling.
The divine shaman spirit doll cackled. "It's starting. The most perfect weapon. Absorbing the deathly aura. Given this little fellow's physical strength, I estimate that he'll be able to cultivate the Specter Race's eye technique to the golden color, and then cultivate the Corpse King Transformation to the fourth or even the fifth transformation. Once he succeeds, no one in his generation will be able to stand against him. So what if he has Three Yang Ancestral Qi?
Beneath him, the monkey sighed inwardly. "Seventh Bro, it's not that I don't want to help you, but there's nothing I can do. You're on your own now. I think that your luck is pretty good, so I hope that a miracle happens. I wish you the best of luck.
…
In the Western Realm, in a brothel, Ming Yu returned to her room, her face pale. Her trip to the Mountain and Sea Realm had been an eye-opener.
As the top courtesan of the brothel, she had seen too many elites and geniuses. She had even seen experts with a combat power of a million. However, none of them were as shocking as the battle on the golden stage.
Especially the Prime Clear's Three Yang Ancestral Qi, it had completely overturned her understanding of power.
There was actually such a technique and battle skill in the universe.
Aside from the Prime Clear, the other elites who could fight on the highest stage had also shocked her. The one who had left the deepest impression on her was the Neohuman Alliance's Corpse Ghost.
Dong dong dong.
"Come in," Ming Yu said indifferently.
Outside the door, the flower lady entered with a smile on her face. Although her appearance was pure and gentle, giving people a kind of simple beauty, Ming Yu knew that this kind of beauty was fake. Although there were only six brothels, there were hundreds of flower ladies. Anyone who behaved improperly would be fired immediately, and their end would be extremely miserable.
Most courtesans would never be able to enter a brothel. Those who could become courtesans were all ruthless people.
"Ming Yu, how was your trip to the Mountain and Sea Realm?
Did you find anything you liked? "Hua Niang asked with a smile.
Ming Yu smiled. "Hua Niang, I'm afraid that you don't know that the Mountain and Sea Realm is no more."
Hua Niang's smile did not change. Of course, she knew that the Mountain and Sea Realm was right next to it. How could she not know that the Mountain and Sea Realm had been destroyed? This was Ming Yu's mockery, but she did not care.
There were many courtesans, but there was only one courtesan.
"Young Master Tian sent word that the competition for the Five Starry Children was a failure, and there might not be any more of them in the future. That's why he's very concerned about you," Hua Niang said with a smile.
Ming Yu's eyes were cold as she stared at Hua Niang. "Tell Young Master Tian that I already have someone I like, and that person has agreed to marry me. Young Master Tian doesn't need to worry."
Hua Niang shook her head and smiled at Ming Yu. "You've been in the brothel for a long time, so you should know the power of the brothel. Even in the Mountain and Sea Realm, Young Master Tian also has people working for him. Do you think he doesn't know who you've been in contact with in the Mountain and Sea Realm?
Shang Qing, Xia Jiuyou, Wen Sansi, and the others who stand on the highest stage, but you haven't come into contact with any of them. "
Ming Yu's lips curled up. "Since he knows, then it's easy to say. I'm just afraid that Young Master Tian will think that I'm lying to him. Go and ask him who I've been with the most in the Mountain and Sea Realm."
Hua Niang was shocked, and she looked at Ming Yu. She had also thought that Ming Yu was lying, but it didn't seem like it.
Ming Yu stood up. "Have a seat, Hua Niang. I'll go check on Sister Yanyu." She then left the room.
Hua Niang's eyes flashed as she watched Ming Yu leave. She opened her gadget and contacted someone.
Ming Yu left the room in disgust and went to another room. She pushed the door open and entered.
Inside the room, Ming Yan faced the starry sky, her eyes filled with helplessness, regret, and determination.
"Sister Yanyu, have you not thought things through?" Ming Yu asked as she stepped in.
Ming Yan was indifferent. "Cut the crap."
Ming Yu sighed. "The brothel won't force you to sell yourself. You'll just have to show your face occasionally …"
Not long after, Hua Niang entered Ming Yan's room and stared at Ming Yu with an ugly expression. "Did you find Lan Si or Lu Yin?"
When Ming Yan heard Hua Niang's words, she suddenly turned around and stared at Ming Yu. Lu Yin?
Ming Yu was pleased. "Of course it's Lu Yin."
Hua Niang frowned. "He agreed to marry you?"
Ming Yu nodded. "That's right."
Ming Yan stared at Ming Yu in disbelief.
Hua Niang continued, "Unfortunately, Lu Yin was captured by the Neohuman Alliance and won't be able to return for the rest of his life. Even if he does, he'll be destroyed by the Hall of Honor. You can't rely on him."
Ming Yu replied, "Regardless of whether or not he'll be able to return, Lu Yin has already agreed to marry me. I've already told Lan Si and Xiao Bai of Eternal Sky Island. They'll pass on the message to Lu Yin's people. Go ask Young Master Tian if he dares to touch me now that I'm Lu Yin's widow."
Hua Niang's gaze turned cold, and she stared at Ming Yu with unwillingness.
The brothel's biggest goal was to be kind to others and not offend anyone. They also wanted to rope in anyone who was worth roping in. Lu Yin was very important to the brothel, but it wasn't because he had unified the Outerverse. If he wanted to, any power in the Neoverse could cause the unified Outerverse to collapse again.
The brothel valued Lu Yin because he was backed by Eternal Sky Island and the Hall of Honor's Master Yuan. These two powers were extremely terrifying, and the brothel would not offend them unless it was absolutely necessary.
Ming Yu was now Lu Yin's widow, and if Young Master Tian dared to touch her, it would be the same as slapping Eternal Sky Island and Master Yuan in the face. If Big Boss found out, he would definitely be skinned alive, and as Hua Niang, her fate would also be extremely miserable.
Hua Niang was unwilling to accept this, as she wanted to rely on Young Master Tian. Once she did, her future would be guaranteed. However, Ming Yu was too smart, and she should not have been allowed to enter the Mountain and Sea Realm.
She did not doubt Ming Yu's words, as it was very easy for a courtesan to marry someone.
Ming Yu was pleased, as this was the effect she had wanted. She had entered the Mountain and Sea Realm precisely for this moment.
Young Master Tian had been eyeing her covetously, and she needed to rely on someone who could instill fear in the brothel to protect herself. After entering the Mountain and Sea Realm, she had not met anyone until she met Lu Yin and Lan Si. This was why she had purposely approached them.
She wanted to make sure that Young Master Tian would not dare to touch her.
She had not only relied on her looks to become a courtesan, but also her brains.
"Young Master Tian will send someone to verify the authenticity of this matter. Ming Yu, you're really smart." Hua Niang was unwilling to accept this, but she still went against her will and forced a smile.
Ming Yu could not be bothered with her.
Hua Niang looked at Ming Yan strangely. "Are you not feeling well, Yanyu?"
Ming Yan was still immersed in Ming Yu's words, and she completely ignored Hua Niang.
Hua Niang was furious, but she could not vent her anger in front of these two. Right, she could hand this woman over to Young Master Tian. At worst, she could just let Ming Yu continue to be a courtesan.
With this thought, Hua Niang's smile grew even wider. She glanced at Ming Yan and then at Ming Yu before walking out of the room. "Ming Yu, teach Yanyu well. She's going to take over your position."
Ming Yu relaxed, as it seemed that her innocence had been preserved for the time being.
"Did you just say that Lu Yin agreed to marry you?" Ming Yan asked Ming Yu, trying her best not to reveal her emotions.
Ming Yu nodded. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Was Lu Yin captured by the Neohuman Alliance?" Ming Yan asked again.
Ming Yu was confused. "Are you that concerned about Lu Yin?"
Ming Yan was indifferent. "I've heard of him. I'm from the Outerverse."
Ming Yu understood. "Right, you're from the Outerverse. That's right, he was captured by the Neohuman Alliance."
Ming Yan clenched her fists and turned to look outside. Her body trembled slightly, as if she was suppressing something.
Ming Yu was no longer in the mood to speak with Ming Yan, as she still had to think of a way to make up for this lie. "Think about it carefully." She then walked out of the room.
After Ming Yu left, Ming Yan could no longer hold it in. She squatted down and wept silently. Her hair turned white and then black, and the intense heartache made it difficult for her to breathe.
When faced with the fact that Lu Yin had been captured by the Neohuman Alliance, even if Ming Yu had said that Lu Yin had agreed to marry her, it wouldn't have been such a huge blow to Ming Yan. Furthermore, she didn't believe that Lu Yin would agree to marry Ming Yu so quickly.
After a long time, she finally recovered and relaxed her clenched fists. Blood dripped from her palms onto the ground, and her eyes were filled with hatred. "Brother Lu, Yan 'er will definitely avenge you. Yan' er swears that she will."
