Ku Wei's face paled as he glared at Ku Lei. "You want to kill me?"
Ku Lei's gaze was cold. "Ant, speak. Did you learn the Yu Secret Art?"
Ku Wei cursed his bad luck. He could've run into anyone, but he just had to run into Ku Lei. "No."
"Do you think I'll believe you?
You obtained the Yu Family's quota to enter Progenitor Chen's tomb, so how could you not have obtained the Yu Secret Art? "Ku Lei barked. He raised his hand, and lightning shot out once more.
In the Mountain and Sea Realm, Ku Lei's strength wasn't very high, and his lightning wasn't very useful. At most, it was slightly faster, but that was only against Lu Yin. Against someone at Ku Wei's level, Ku Lei's power level completely overwhelmed Lu Yin's.
Ku Wei raised his hand and struck out with a Finger Zen. His attack made Ku Lei want to laugh. "You dare to use the Ku family's ultimate technique against me? You're courting death!" He then raised his hand and struck out with a Finger Zen as well.
Ku Wei was startled and hurriedly dodged. He panted heavily as he looked at Ku Lei in shock.
At that moment, Hui Santong descended and frowned when he saw the two fighting. "The Neohuman Alliance is nearby. Gentlemen, now is not the time for internal strife."
Ku Lei's tone was gloomy. "When did the Seven Courts ever work together in Progenitor Chen's tomb?
There's no need for you to be so nosy. "
Hui Santong was helpless; Ku Lei's personality was just too bad.
Ku Wei barked, "Don't go too far, Ku Lei! The family head definitely doesn't want us to fight."
"You're not qualified to fight with me. I'm just teaching you a lesson so that you know how to speak to me here," Ku Lei said arrogantly. He raised his hand, and lightning streaked out.
Ku Wei was struck by the shockwaves once more. He clenched his fists and glared at Ku Lei as he analyzed the situation in his mind. He wondered if he should transform into a guardian giant. If he didn't, then he might be killed by Ku Lei. If he transformed into a guardian giant, then he might not be able to defeat Ku Lei. After all, once he left Progenitor Chen's tomb, he might be dissected and studied by his family.
Moreover, transforming into a guardian giant might not necessarily be Ku Lei's opponent. He didn't have the ability to use battle techniques while transforming into a guardian giant, and a brute force giant would be at a great disadvantage against Ku Lei.
Suddenly, Ku Lei, Ku Lei's father...
Ku Lei snorted and raised his hand, causing lightning to flash. "I taught you how to talk to me when you were young. Kneel."
Ku Wei pursed his lips. "Apart from being a disciple of the Ku family, I also have another identity."
Ku Lei frowned and stared at him.
Hui Santong also looked at him curiously.
Ku Wei raised his head. "I, Ku Wei, am the captain of the Great Yu Empire's Tenth Imperial Squadron, and I am loyal to the Great Yu Empire's Royal Regent, Lu Yin."
Hui Santong was shocked and subconsciously looked at Lu Yin.
Ku Lei's gaze turned cold. "Are you threatening me?"
Ku Wei smiled and pointed behind Ku Lei. "You can think of it that way."
At that moment, Lu Yin's bubble reached its peak, burst, and fell.
As soon as he landed on the ground, before he could even look around, a familiar voice wailed in his ears. "Your Highness, Your Highness, Alliance Leader, Seventh Bro, your cute Little Wei has been bullied."
Ku Wei was filled with grief and despair, as if he had been greatly wronged.
Lu Yin stared blankly at Ku Wei.
In the distance, Ku Wei's face was filled with grief and indignation as he pointed at Ku Lei and howled, "Your Highness, Little Wei sensed your aura and traveled thousands of miles just to ensure Your Highness' safety and to give the Great Yu Empire and the Great Eastern Alliance an explanation. This person …" He glared at Ku Lei. "Not only did this person obstruct Little Wei, but he also forced Little Wei to kneel. Your Highness, Little Wei is your subordinate, so how can he be humiliated like this? Your Highness, you must seek justice for Little Wei."
This string of words left Ku Lei dumbfounded. How could a disciple of the Seven Courts speak to someone else in such a manner?
Wasn't he just a lackey?
Hui Santong was stunned, as this was the first time he had encountered such a shameless and undignified disciple of the Seven Courts. It was simply too embarrassing.
Ku Wei did not care about his dignity, or else he would not have gone to the Outerverse in the first place. He had been forced to a certain extent, and he fully understood what it meant to compromise, to borrow someone else's strength, and to lean on a tree for shade. The dignity of the Seven Courts?
It had nothing to do with him.
Right now, he just wanted to lean on Lu Yin. Even if there were rumors that Lu Yin had been captured by the Neohuman Alliance, so what?
Whatever, he would just lean on Lu Yin first.
Lu Yin regained his composure and looked at Ku Lei with an unfriendly expression. "Did you bully my subordinate?"
Ku Lei was dumbfounded, as he had not expected Lu Yin to actually respond. However, he did not back down. "This is my Ku family's matter, and it has nothing to do with you."
"You're asking for a beating," Lu Yin said again. He then raised a finger and flicked it out, causing a tremendous force to blast through the void towards Ku Lei.
Ku Lei's eyes widened, and he transformed into a thunderbolt to dodge. However, no matter how fast he was, he could not outrun Lu Yin's finger wind.
Lu Yin's finger wind had increased his strength by dozens of times after breaking through to the Hunter realm, so Ku Lei was naturally unlucky to receive it head-on. He almost vomited out his organs when he was struck, and his entire body was sent flying a thousand meters away. He spat out a mouthful of blood and glared at Lu Yin, unable to say a single word.
Hui Santong's eyes narrowed. What a huge gap.
Ku Wei was stunned. He knew that Lu Yin was strong, and he had even guessed that Lu Yin might have surpassed Ku Lei, but he had not expected Lu Yin to be this strong. This was not just surpassing Ku Lei, but crushing him. It was as if Ku Lei had crushed him.
How had His Highness become so powerful?
The gap between them was just too great.
Lu Yin's strength was enough to fight against a Corpse King at the Third Transformation, and this Corpse King had fought against Yuhua Mavis, Xia Jiuyou, and a group of other experts by himself. Even Progenitor Chen's avatar, an avatar of the Prime Clear lineage's three suns ancestral qi, had been helpless against this Corpse King. This was strength.
It could be said that if Lu Yin did not rely on external items, he would definitely be the strongest person in Progenitor Chen's tomb. A Corpse King without a mind of its own would not be able to defeat him.
With Lu Yin's current strength, the Prime Clear lineage would have been helpless against him in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and he would have been able to suppress everyone else.
Of course, if he had improved, so would the others. It all depended on who had improved more.
A finger wind forced Ku Lei back, and Ku Wei's expression became even more vibrant. He quickly hugged Lu Yin's thigh. "Your Highness, I've missed you so much. You don't know how many times I cried when I heard that you had been captured by the Neohuman Alliance. I cried every day and every night until my eyes were swollen. Your Highness …"
Lu Yin was speechless. "Alright, cut the crap."
Ku Wei immediately paused and smiled brilliantly. "Yes, Your Highness." He then looked around arrogantly and stared at Ku Lei. "Hurry up and apologize to His Highness. Do you want His Highness to take the initiative to apologize?"
Ku Lei was enraged, and he could not help but spit out another mouthful of blood as he glared at Ku Wei.
Ku Wei was pleased with himself, but then he looked at Hui Santong in annoyance. "Brat, His Highness is here. Hurry up and bow.
Then use your best wisdom root to welcome him. How can you be so blind as to call yourself a descendant of the Hui family? "
Hui Santong raised his brows. Damn lackey.
Lu Yin looked at Hui Santong; Ku Wei's words made sense. Did the Hui family use wisdom roots to welcome others?
When he saw that Lu Yin seemed to agree with Ku Wei's words, Hui Santong hurriedly said, "Brother Lu, we agreed on a half-day shift. There's not much time left, and Progenitor Chen's tomb is even closer to opening."
"It's up to His Highness to decide," Ku Wei replied with a disdainful attitude that made Hui Santong want to beat him up; he was too unreasonable.
Ku Wei had just finished speaking to Hui Santong when he looked at Lu Yin with a fawning smile. "Your Highness, this descendant of the Hui family is right. Time is limited, so you should hurry up and find your opportunity. Don't waste your time with trash like him." He then pointed at Ku Lei.
Ku Lei was furious.
Lu Yin realized that as long as Ku Wei was around, he did not need to speak at all.
Soon, he stepped into the bubble.
As for Ku Wei, he also stepped into the bubble to give face to Lu Yin. As for standing guard, Hui Santong didn't even want to speak to Ku Wei. Besides, with Ku Wei's strength, he wouldn't even be able to shout at the Neohuman Alliance's experts.
Hui Santong only had one thought about Ku Wei: he was a piece of sh * t that spoiled the entire pot of soup.
Ku Lei swore to himself that he would definitely report this to his family once he left. This bastard was too shameless, and he was bringing shame to the Ku family.
Lu Yin did not know if Ku Wei's arrival had changed his luck, but he did not see Progenitor Chen's clone fighting. Instead, he saw a flowerbed. The flowerbed was very beautiful, and there were many strange flowers and plants. In the distance, he could even see a mountain range and thatched cottages. It looked like a place where ordinary people lived, and it was very peaceful and natural.
Lu Yin could not believe his eyes as he looked at the endless flowerbed in front of him.
Progenitor Chen's clone's appearance had always been accompanied by battles, massacres, and rebellions, which were completely unrelated to these flowers. However, at this moment, he had appeared outside the flowerbed and even squatted down to smell the flowers.
It felt like his worldview had been flipped upside down.
Progenitor Chen's clone waited outside the flowerbed until Lu Yin's bubble burst, but he did not move a single step.
Lu Yin looked for another bubble and entered it.
This time, he saw another battle, but the opponent was not an expert from the Daosource Sect. At that time, the Fifth Mainland had not yet been destroyed, and there were many families and powers. The structure was completely different from the current one. There was no Hall of Honor or Seven Courts, and there was naturally no division between the Innerverse and the Outerverse.
However, Lu Yin did not understand the structure of the Fifth Mainland back then. He could only see what Progenitor Chen's clone had experienced, but he could not read his thoughts.
It was Hui Santong's turn to stand guard.
Lu Yin saw many more battles, including one with the Sixth Mainland's experts.
"You don't even have an imprint. Your Fifth Mainland will never understand the power of an imprint." These words came from a man. Whether it was his clothing, temperament, or weapon, everything was extraordinary, and there was even a power vessel floating behind him.
Progenitor Chen's clone only had one sentence: "Idiot."
The man was enraged, and he immediately attacked. The imprint behind him seemed sacred and inviolable, and the power vessel released a powerful might that seemed capable of suppressing the heavens.
However, such a powerful attack was shattered by a single slap from Progenitor Chen's clone. Whether it was the man himself, his weapon, or his power vessel, everything was instantly shattered.
It was just that domineering.
Lu Yin watched on excitedly. At this moment, Progenitor Chen was only an Enlighter, and his opponent had used a foreign object. Together, they could threaten a powerhouse with a power level of 400,000, but they were still shattered by a single slap from Progenitor Chen's clone.
