Dirk's expression changed, and he asked in a low voice, "May I ask who is boarding?"
Under everyone's gaze, a figure gradually became clear. "The Arcadian Arrow Crew. Do you wish to join my Leon's Armada?"
Dirk took a good look at this person and became extremely cautious. "Spectre."
It was Spectre, a member of Big Sis' mercenary group.
Spectre stared at Dirk. "Have you not decided yet?
I don't have much patience. Why don't you ask Big Sis to come out and chat with you? "
Beads of sweat dripped down from Captain Dirk's forehead. Although he appeared rough and unrestrained, it was actually just a disguise. He had brought Lu Yin to the Ocean Inversion out of fear, and now, he was facing Spectre and that terrifying Big Sis.
Hai Dalu stepped forward. "Brother Spectre, we're here to escort Alliance Leader Lu."
Spectre did not seem to hear him and only stared at Dirk.
Around them, the members of the Arcadian Arrow Crew had ugly expressions, as they did not know how things would develop. Did they have to join Leon's Armada today?
Hai Dalu looked at Lu Yin for help.
Lu Yin smiled. "Uncle, let's forget about it for today. We'll talk about it in the future. In any case, we can't run away from the Cosmic Sea."
Spectre retracted her gaze and looked at Lu Yin, her originally cold gaze becoming warm. "It's good that you're fine. The captain was very worried about you."
"Let's go."
Spectre no longer paid attention to the Arcadian Arrow Crew and stepped forward, returning to Leon's Armada's warship.
Lu Yin turned back and smiled at the Arcadian Arrow Crew. "Sorry for troubling you all." He then looked deeply at Hai Dalu. "We'll meet again if we're fated." He then vanished.
After Lu Yin and Spectre left, Commander Dirk heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Return." He had no intention of paying Highsage Leon a visit. Highsage Leon was a tyrannical person, and if Dirk had asked to join Leon's Armada, there would have been no room for him to refuse.
Hai Dalu's emotions were complicated. From Spectre's tone, the Arcadian Arrow Crew would join Leon's Armada sooner or later, but that did not matter to him. The moment he had revealed his identity to Lu Yin, he had been destined to serve Lu Yin, even if he did not care about Spectre.
Earth and Lu Yin. What a coincidence.
Leon's Armada's warship was even larger than the Corps' warship. When Lu Yin boarded the ship, everyone looked at him with respect, along with admiration, reverence, and longing.
Everyone knew of Lu Yin's identity and the glory he had created. They also knew that he was the crown prince of Leon's Armada.
Dong
With a loud bang, the red rain in the sky turned upside down. The sea trembled, and the seawater boiled. Everyone's heart trembled as they looked in the direction of Leon's Armada. At this moment, the entire sea was quiet. Only the battleship had become the center of the universe.
Lu Yin looked up and saw that the sound had come from Highsage Leon's Tyrant Blade. As the sound spread out, a formless energy swept towards Lu Yin. This was Highsage Leon's domineering aura, and it was incomparably domineering. It was not a spiritual force, domain, or battle force, but rather an invincible aura that had been formed through years of training in the Overlord's Slash.
In the face of this aura, ordinary Emissaries would tremble. Highsage Leon did not cultivate anything else. He had once fought Ji Qiang and Annihilation on his own with the Overlord's Slash, causing Willow Leaf Flying Flower to exclaim in admiration. He had suppressed the Cosmic Sea and commanded the pirates. No one dared to disobey him.
As this domineering aura swept out, Lu Yin stopped in his tracks, smiled, and continued forward.
Dong
Another thunderous boom tore through the earth, causing the hearts of those who heard it to stop and their breathing to stop. Lu Yin looked up and stomped his foot on the ground. His Overlaying Stacks vibrated the air, causing a similar boom to echo out, causing those who were breathing to stop.
People recovered.
Their faces paled as they gasped for breath. What was going on?
Had Highsage Leon gone mad?
Was he going to kill everyone?
Even those from Leon's Armada felt a lingering fear. If they had been just a little bit later, they might have died from the sudden stop of their breathing.
The next moment, they looked at Lu Yin with eyes that were filled with respect, admiration, and worship. It was Lu Yin who had helped them recover and saved them.
Suddenly, a giant figure charged out from the cabin and raised the Tyrant Blade high into the air before viciously slashing down at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin's pupils shrank, and his star energy transformed into a sword that slashed diagonally from bottom to top.
There was a loud bang as the blade and sword collided. The void exploded in all directions from Leon's Armada's warship, turning into black lines that extended outwards. The sky above and the ground below were torn apart, as if the mirror that was the world had been shattered.
Every black line that tore through the void accurately avoided people and objects. Such a terrifying collision had not affected anyone in the slightest.
Everyone continuously retreated as they watched in horror. No one was able to approach the battlefield, as it belonged to the Envoys. In Leon's Armada, only the commander of the Thunder Sword Squadron, Liu Feng, was qualified to join, but even she might not be able to escape unscathed.
Lu Yin was just an Enlighter, but he actually had the strength to resist the commander?
They were overthinking things, as Lu Yin naturally did not have the strength to resist Highsage Leon. This was just Highsage Leon trying to create momentum for him and establish his image in Leon's Armada. In the end, their squadrons respected strength, and Leon wanted to tell everyone that Lu Yin was a powerhouse who was second only to himself.
The red rain in the sky dissipated, and the sky became clear once more.
An exasperated voice rang out from the cabin. "You almost killed me! Can't you be gentler? Do you think that just anyone can resist the Tyrant Blade?"
It was Big Sis who had spoken.
As she spoke, Big Sister walked out of the cabin. This time, she had transformed into a graceful beauty who was full of vulgarities.
Lu Yin stared blankly at her, and for a moment, he did not even know how to sheathe his sword.
Highsage Leon flipped his Tyrant Blade and knocked away Lu Yin's star energy sword before putting it away. "I know what I'm doing."
Big Sis angrily glared at him before looking at Lu Yin with narrowed eyes. "Little Seven, are you trying to spar with Big Sis?"
Lu Yin was stunned, but he quickly dispersed his sword and smiled. "You've become prettier again, Big Sis. Congratulations! When will you be done with it?"
"Done my ass." Big Sis walked in front of Lu Yin and grabbed him. "Have you become arrogant recently? You actually arm-wrestled a Half-Ancestor?"
Lu Yin grinned. "No, I was ambushed."
"Does a Half-Ancestor need to ambush you?"
"I'm powerful."
"You really are arrogant."
"No."
"Are you refuting me?"
"I wouldn't dare."
…
On the deck, many people from Leon's Armada retracted their gazes, not daring to get involved. Big Sis was the one they could not afford to provoke.
Big Sis dragged Lu Yin into the cabin, where the Ghost Doctor, Sister Fei, Kidney, and Brother Hao were all present.
"Where's Captain Liu Feng?" Lu Yin asked as he rubbed his head. Big Sis had been so ruthless.
Highsage Leon took a swig of wine. "He went to the burial grounds and wanted to take a gamble."
Lu Yin gravely replied, "The burial grounds aren't simple. If possible, tell him to come out quickly."
"We know that the burial grounds are good for those with ancient bloodlines, but it's not good for others.
Even those with primeval surnames might not all have ancient bloodlines. It's a pity that Liu Feng didn't listen and insisted on taking a gamble, "Sister Fei said helplessly.
The captain of the Thunder Sword Squadron, Liu Feng, was from the Sword Sect's Liu family, but he had left the Liu family due to differences in ideals.
Back then, the Sword Sect's Liu family had not expected that he would break through to become an Emissary after leaving. By the time they found out, they were already filled with regret and wanted to summon him back. However, Liu Feng had refused, as his greatest wish was to find a sword technique that surpassed the Thirteen Swords and embarrass the Sword Sect.
This had become the obsession of many people, and it wasn't just Liu Feng. Even the Sword Sect's own people wanted to create the Fourteenth Sword, which would surpass the Thirteen Swords.
"What's going on with Xia Ji?"
Highsage Leon looked at Lu Yin and asked. His expression was unprecedentedly solemn, and there was an intense killing intent in the depths of his eyes.
Everyone else looked at Lu Yin. Xia Ji was a Half-Ancestor, but he had actually attacked an Enlighter. It was unbelievable.
Lu Yin shrugged. "He wanted to obtain my technique, but I ambushed him." He then proudly added, "He should be injured."
Highsage Leon raised a brow.
Big Sis was very unhappy, and she smacked Lu Yin's head. "You can injure a Half-Ancestor?
Don't you know where you're bragging? Everyone here is smart. "
Lu Yin was speechless. He had indeed injured Xia Ji, and not just once. The first time had been through poison, and the second time had been through his blood-stained clothes, but no one would believe him.
"It's true that he escaped," Brother Hao said. "Not just anyone can escape from a Half-Ancestor. In the entire universe, who dares to say that they can escape from a Half-Ancestor? Not even the captain can do it."
"Not bad," Sister Fei agreed and looked at Lu Yin in admiration.
Highsage Leon rolled his eyes. "One day, I'll destroy that old bastard."
Leon's Armada's enmity with Xia Ji was not small, and Big Sis' mercenary group had been chased out at Xia Ji's behest. During the battle in the Cosmic Sea, Xia Ji had wanted to destroy Leon's Armada and start a war. All of them had been Xia Ji's pawns, and this had caused Highsage Leon to feel stifled.
And now, Lu Yin had been ambushed by Xia Ji.
This new grudge was still fresh, and if possible, Leon's Armada would not hesitate to destroy Xia Ji.
"Then how did you end up in the Cosmic Sea?" Xiao Zi asked.
Lu Yin shook his head. "I don't know. Back then, Xia Ji captured me and brought me to a place. I took advantage of his inattention to enter the Daosource Sect's ruins to seek help, but I was ambushed when I came out. When I woke up, I was already in the universe. Xia Ji probably didn't want me to know where he had been captured, as that place might be related to his secret."
Big Sis snorted. "His secret must be his clones. That old bastard cultivates the Nine Clones Technique, and who knows how many clones he has hidden outside. The Xia family is really troublesome."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. Someone who did not want him to know was related to his clones and was in the Neoverse. Could it be some colossus?
Thinking back, there were only a few colossi in the Neoverse. Could it be that Xia Ji had clones in one of them?
Or did he have both?
This was troublesome.
While Lu Yin was deep in thought, Sister Fei and the others discussed Leon's Armada. They did not hide anything, as Lu Yin was one of them.
Not long after, they all dispersed.
Highsage Leon asked Lu Yin to stay behind. "What do you plan to do with the Cosmic Sea?"
Lu Yin muttered, "What should I do?"
Highsage Leon smiled casually. "Unify the Innerverse and Outerverse. The next step should be the Cosmic Sea."
Lu Yin looked at Highsage Leon. "Do I need to worry about the Cosmic Sea?"
