"Even if Qian Yan can help you deal with the dark forces, what about Chaosgod Mountain?
He's not from Chaosgod Mountain, so he doesn't have the ability to control the Chaos Flowzone, "Cang Yi hurriedly explained.
Lu Yin looked outside and saw someone walking over. It was Elder Hu, the person who had helped hide Cang Yi. He was just an ordinary deacon, and Cang Yi hadn't paid much attention to him. But now, Cang Yi was stunned. "Elder Hu?"
Elder Hu bowed to Lu Yin. "This subordinate greets the Alliance Leader."
Lu Yin nodded.
Ever since the Great Eastern Alliance had destroyed the Blaze Realm, Wang Wen and Wei Rong had sent people to infiltrate the Innerverse. Elder Hu was one of the people who had been infiltrated, and he had secretly joined the Great Eastern Alliance for more than a year now.
"Elder Hu, are you a member of the Great Eastern Alliance?" Cang Yi found it hard to believe.
Elder Hu looked at Cang Yi and said indifferently, "I've been working for the Alliance Leader for more than a year. It's because of his orders that I'm helping you hide."
Cang Yi's body swayed and his eyes were bitter. He thought that everything was going according to his plan, but in the end, he realized that he had been tricked from the beginning.
"Even though Elder Hu doesn't have the ability to control Chaosgod Mountain, we still have you, Cang Yi," Lu Yin said slowly as he stared at Cang Yi. "With you around, Chaosgod Mountain won't dare to act rashly, regardless of whether you have a cultivation base or not. We have Qian Yan on the outside and Elder Hu on the inside. That's enough to stabilize the situation. Most importantly, because of the deaths of Cang Zhou, Cang Song, and the others, Chaosgod Mountain has to seal itself off from the outside world.
Cang Yi's mind turned quickly. Regardless of whether he had cultivation or not?
This meant that Lu Yin wanted to cripple him. No, absolutely not! He gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Yin. "Alliance Master, I've pledged my loyalty to you. Why do you want to cripple me?"
"You betrayed the Fifth Mainland, and you lack integrity. Someone like you shouldn't even exist in the first place." After saying that, Lu Yin did not plan on wasting any more words with Cang Yi and was about to cripple him.
Cang Yi hurriedly shouted, "Alliance Master Lu, I know where the giants are!"
Lu Yin froze and stared at Cang Yi, "What did you say?"
Cang Yi was terrified, as this was a moment of life and death. If Lu Yin took action, then he would be reduced to Elder Hu's puppet for the rest of his life, and that would be a fate worse than death. "I know where the giant bloodline is."
"Speak!" he barked.
Despite his fear, Azure Wing braced himself and said, "If I tell you, will Alliance Master Lu let me go?"
"You don't have the right to negotiate with me."
"I'm begging you. I, Cang Yi, beg Alliance Head Lu to spare me." Cang Yi knelt down, trembling.
As long as it's true, I won't touch you. "
Cang Yi gritted his teeth. "Madame Red, it's very likely that the giant bloodline was taken away by Madame Red."
Lu Yin felt strange. "Madam Red?
How did she know about the giant bloodline?
Why would she take them away? Isn't she in the Outerverse? "
Cang Yi's body trembled. "Yes, I was the one who told her. No, it was Madam Red who contacted me. She asked me about the situation at Chaosgod Mountain and the war in Cosmic Sea. I had no choice but to tell her. She said she would go to Cosmic Sea. If she went, after the war in Cosmic Sea ended, there was a high chance she would run into the descendants of the giant race and be captured."
"Otherwise, with your influence, Alliance Leader Lu, it's impossible that you haven't found any traces of the giant's bloodline."
Lu Yin really wanted to kill Cang Yi. This person must have taken the initiative to contact Madam Red and tell her about Chaosgod Mountain. Otherwise, Madam Red would not have contacted him so easily. With Madam Red's status, she would not have taken the initiative to contact him before the Sixth Mainland started plotting against the Fifth Mainland.
Cang Yi was practically lying on the ground as he waited in fear. He could not negotiate too many conditions with Lu Yin, so he could only pray that Lu Yin would keep his promise.
"Are you sure it was Madam Red who did it?" Lu Yin asked.
Cang Yi gulped. "No, I'm not sure, but I can ask. I can contact her."
"Ask her, but don't expose our existence. You should know that even the Sixth Mainland's Three Ancestors can't protect you, let alone Madam Red. Only I can protect you," Lu Yin threatened.
"I know, I know," Cang Yi hurriedly agreed.
After making some preparations, Cang Yi returned to normal, and he contacted Madam Red.
Not long after, Madam Red's voice rang out. "What is it?"
Cang Yi carefully replied, "Madam, the war in Cosmic Sea has ended. I'm here to report this to you."
"No need, I know." Madam Red sneered.
Cang Yi glanced at Lu Yin, whose back was facing him, and spoke up again. "Madam, I have another matter that I'd like to ask you about."
"Your mission is to wait for orders. Since when is it your turn to ask me questions?" Madam Red's tone was low and filled with a chill.
Cang Yi hurriedly replied, "It involves many powers, and it even involves the Hall of Honor's Board of Directors, so …" "What is it?"
Cang Yi asked, "Do you know about the giants?"
Madam Red was astonished. "Why are you asking about that?"
Cang Yi explained, "There was a Giant Financial Group in the Innerverse with the giant bloodline, but they have already sided with Lu Yin. During the war in Cosmic Sea, the giant bloodline supported Cosmic Sea, but they mysteriously disappeared. Lu Yin is currently using all of his influence to search for the giant bloodline. The Outerverse's Great Eastern Alliance, the Innerverse's Chaosgod Mountain, the Wen family, the Cosmic Sea's Leon Legion, and the Neoverse's Board of Directors are all searching for them."
"The disappearance of the giant bloodline has caused a commotion, and I'm wondering if I should use the news of the giant bloodline to cause chaos in the Innerverse and Outerverse. Lu Yin's current influence is very great, and once he's in chaos, the entire Fifth Mainland will be thrown into chaos. He has the ability to directly influence the Board of Directors."
Madam Red fell silent, and Cang Yi was nervous. His palms were sweaty, and he had no idea if the giant had been taken away by Madam Red. He could only guess. He was sure that Madam Red would go to Cosmic Sea, which meant that there was a high chance that she would capture or destroy the giant bloodline. He could only gamble on it, and since those words had been taught to him by Lu Yin, he could not just ask her directly.
After a while, Madam Red asked, "How do you plan on using the giant bloodline?"
Cang Yi replied, "I haven't thought about that yet. It's just an idea, which is why I contacted Madam Red."
Madam Red asked in a low voice, "This giant bloodline belongs to Lu Yin?"
"Yes."
"What a coincidence. These giants are currently at my Galloping Horse Mountain Villa. Tell Lu Yin that if he wants to take them away, he can come to my Galloping Horse Mountain Villa. I'll be waiting for him."
Cang Yi panicked. "Madam, if I tell Lu Yin, my life-" "You can come to my Flying Horse Manor first. Cang Zhou is dead, and Lu Yin won't let you control Chaosgod Mountain. He'll only support his own people. Once Lu Yin returns to Chaosgod Mountain, your life will truly be gone," the Red Madam said.
Cang Yi's heart sank, as Madam Red had been right. He looked at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin nodded.
Cang Yi nervously replied, "Yes, Madam. I'll head to the Galloping Horse Mountain Villa right away."
The call ended, and Cang Yi respectfully stood up.
Lu Yin's gaze turned gloomy, as Madam Red had really taken them away. This was going to be troublesome, as it was almost impossible to take the giant bloodline away from the Galloping Horse Mountain Villa. Madam Red was an absolute powerhouse whose power level exceeded 900,000, and she was not someone he could deal with. Even with Flying Willow, there was a qualitative difference.
If he wanted to take the giant bloodline away, he would have to negotiate. He believed that since Madam Red wanted to negotiate with him, her conditions would not be low. He did not like to be passive, so there was only one other method, which was to forcefully take them away. If he wanted to succeed with this method, he would have to first contact Madam Red.
Lu Yin contacted Wei Rong, and the two chatted for a while. Wei Rong was the best at this kind of thing.
The next day, Lu Yin brought Cang Yi and Flying Willow to the Outerverse's western weaves.
Chaos Flowzone was located in the west of the Innerverse, and the Astral River Ark was very close to the western weaves.
After Lu Yin set off, he was just about to contact someone when his gadget rang. It was En Ya.
"Alliance Master, the Hall of Tai Mo is in trouble."
"What's wrong?"
En Ya replied, "A giant is blocking the Hall of Tai Mo, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. He's from the Sixth Mainland's Arrow Sect, and his name is Brute Force."
Lu Yin's expression changed.
En Ya sent out an image. In outer space, outside the Hall of Tai Mo, there was a giant that was about ten meters tall standing there. He carried a longbow on his back and had an arrogant look in his eyes.
Lu Yin was stunned when he saw the giant's appearance. It was actually him!
He recognized this giant, as he had battled with this giant when he had entered the Daosource Sect's ruins' Nine Cauldrons Space. This giant was very powerful, and even if Ancestor Arrow Mountain had been alive, he would not have been a match for this giant, let alone the current Hall of Tai Mo.
"The giant has some misgivings, so he hasn't directly attacked the Hall of Tai Mo. However, we believe that he won't be able to wait for long." En Ya's tone was unpleasant, as the Great Eastern Alliance was being bullied. The Hall of Tai Mo was a member of the Great Eastern Alliance, and if the Great Eastern Alliance did not handle this matter well, it would cause dissension and discord.
Lu Yin could not allow such a thing to happen at a time like this, or else all of his previous efforts would have been wasted.
"Got it," Lu Yin replied before ending the call. He pondered for a moment before activating his gadget. He wanted to contact Qing Tan.
Soon, Qing Tan's voice sounded. "Alliance Master Lu, I'm glad that you contacted me."
"Miss Qing Tan, there's something that I need your help with."
In the Neoverse, atop Realm Mountain, Qing Tan's eyes lit up when she heard Lu Yin's request. "Alliance Master Lu, please speak your mind. If I can help, Qing Tan will definitely not refuse."
Lu Yin replied, "I'd like to ask Miss Qing Tan to ask the Three Elders to intervene in the Blazing Mist Flowzone's war at the Board of Governors and completely quell it. Also, give up the Blaze Realm's former territory to my Great Eastern Alliance."
Qing Tan was puzzled. "If I remember correctly, the Great Eastern Alliance withdrew from the Blaze Realm."
Lu Yin felt bitter. "I won't hide it from Miss Qing Tan. My original intention was to have the Sylvan Dragon Tribe wage war with the Ross Empire so that I could sit back and reap the benefits. However, with the start of the Blazing Mist Flowzone's war, many Innerverse powers have secretly participated, and the situation is no longer something that my Great Eastern Alliance can control. The Sword Sect, Wen family, Divine Grade Hall, and other Flowzones have all sent their forces into the fray, and these powers are all from the Innerverse.
"Once my Great Eastern Alliance interferes, it will incite public outrage. Not only will we not be able to obtain the Blazing Mist Flowzone, but we might not even be able to protect Fennel Flowzone."
Qing Tan's lips curled up, as Lu Yin's words showed his sincerity. No one was stupid, and many had already guessed that the Great Eastern Alliance had withdrawn from the Blazing Mist Flowzone in order to incite a war, not to quell it. However, the Great Eastern Alliance had been too well-behaved for the past two years, and the Sylvan Dragon Tribe and the Ross Empire had been too impatient.
