Lu Yin muttered to himself after hearing the old man's words. The Leo Clan, the pirate port, and the attack … He seemed to have grasped something, but he could not completely understand it.
The old man said, "When a person encounters an enemy that's too strong, they will first hide and eliminate any clues that might lead to them."
Lu Yin's eyes lit up, and he clenched his fists. If this planet really did belong to the Leo Clan, then the only reason they would attack the pirate port would be to eliminate all traces of their existence. They might even fabricate a war to make their entire family disappear in order to avoid powerful enemies.
Lu Yin was just unlucky to have encountered such a situation. A nobody was just a nobody, and even if he was accidentally injured, no one would seek justice for him. Lu Yin believed that once the Leo Clan discovered Zhuo Daynight's existence, they would definitely not throw her onto a planet like this. In the end, it was all about power, and Lu Yin began to desire it.
He did not want to be sacrificed so easily in the future. So what if he was strong? Unless he was truly invincible in the universe, he would only be a pawn. He did not want to be a pawn; he wanted to be the player.
The past few days had been unforgettable, and the inhumane torture had changed his way of thinking.
The old man looked into Lu Yin's eyes and saw a different expression. His lips curled up; sometimes, a single sentence could ignite a flame.
"You said that the Leo Clan hasn't collected any ores for a month. Does that mean they've left?"
The old man shook his head. "This planet is very well hidden, and the Leo Clan will not give it up. However …" The old man paused, and his gaze deepened. "Once they give it up, the entire planet will turn to dust."
Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean?
This planet will be destroyed? "
The old man nodded. "Large organizations have their own methods of doing things. The pirate port attack that you mentioned happened before you were thrown onto this planet. If the Leo Clan really wants to disappear, then there shouldn't have been any movement after that. However, you were thrown onto this planet, and your existence is proof that the Leo Clan still exists. In order to eliminate all evidence, they will definitely destroy this planet once they give it up."
"The Leo Clan doesn't know that I'm still alive," Lu Yin said.
The old man was disdainful. "They don't need to know. What they want is to eliminate all possible evidence. Even if it's unfinished white meat, they can still determine how long it's been."
"What about you?
Why are you on this planet? "Lu Yin suddenly changed the topic. The old man was so calm that he might have a way to escape.
"Perhaps you'll find out about me in the future, but now …" Suddenly, the old man's expression changed. "Kid, I was right. Pray. Whether or not you live depends on this."
Lu Yin looked up, and his pupils shrank. He saw a beam of light blasting towards the ground. It was so familiar, so unforgettable. He had almost been annihilated by this very same beam.
Boom
The earth trembled as a shockwave swept over from afar. Strong winds blew away the thick layers of clouds, allowing Lu Yin to see the stars for the first time.
Huge cracks spread across the ground as fiery red lava spewed out of the ground. The old man grabbed Lu Yin and soared into the sky. Although Lu Yin's physical injuries had mostly recovered and he could even use battle force, his internal organs were still heavily injured. It would be difficult for him to use battle techniques, and he had only absorbed a little of his star energy through the Sirius. There was no way for him to dodge the beam attack.
"Kid, there's a spacecraft five kilometers north of where my grandson is buried. Pray for good luck." The old man threw Lu Yin away and clasped his hands together. An indescribable chant sounded out from outside his body that seemed to originate from ancient times, but also from the distant future. It broke through the heavens and shot straight into the universe.
Outside Driftcharge Planet, a super-large warship floated and bombarded it with beams of light in an attempt to completely destroy the planet.
Inside the ship, a youth's eyes lit up as he looked at the bombarded planet and praised, "Third Grandpa, thank you for letting me tour. It's rare to see a planet destroyed. It's so beautiful!"
Not too far away, a middle-aged man smiled and looked down at Driftcharge Planet, "This is our Leo Clan's property, but we have to give it up. Otherwise, the enemy will track us down."
"Are there still people on this planet?" the youth asked curiously.
The middle-aged man smiled, "They can't be considered people. They're just slaves."
"It's a pity that I can't see them being destroyed," the youth sighed.
The middle-aged man laughed, "There will be plenty of opportunities like this in the future. Once we go to the other weaves, Third Grandpa will catch more slaves for you to play with."
"Thank you, Third Grandpa!" The youth was delighted.
Suddenly, a majestic chant broke through Driftcharge Planet's atmosphere and burst through outer space.
The super-large spacecraft shook, and everyone stared blankly at the strange phenomenon not too far away. The Third Grandpa's expression changed, and then it became heated, "An inheritance! This is an ancient inheritance! I never thought that an abandoned planet would have one!" He then rushed out of the spacecraft and towards Driftcharge Planet.
At the same time, multiple figures also rushed out and headed towards Driftcharge Planet.
They were all space-exploring powerhouses from the Leo Clan, and the Third Grandpa was the clan's only Cruiser. They were the protectors of the Leo Clan, and at this moment, they were attracted by the old man and all rushed towards Driftcharge Planet.
To space-exploring powerhouses, the destruction of a planet was not enough to threaten their lives. The inheritance was the most important thing.
Lu Yin was smashed into the ground in the distance, and beside him was the burial ground of the old man's grandson. He looked into the distance and saw that the old man had caused such a huge commotion. What was he trying to do?
"Kid, let's go. Remember to memorize the Stonewall Scriptures, it'll be beneficial for you. I've also removed your internal energy, so forget everything that happened here and live well," the old man's voice rang out in Lu Yin's ears.
Lu Yin stared at the old man. The two had been together for two and a half months, and Lu Yin had gone from being wary of the old man to being sullen later on. Lu Yin did not know what he was feeling, but it was very complicated. No matter what, he had been saved by this person, and his strength had increased greatly. "Let's go together," Lu Yin shouted.
The old man turned around and smiled. His face was as thin as a skeleton's, but his smile was full of sunshine, and Lu Yin could even see kindness and gratification in his eyes. "That's enough for me. Good kid, live on. Let's go, I'll break the path for you."
Lu Yin felt a strong gust of wind as he was pushed towards the north. There was a spacecraft there that had been prepared for him.
"What's your name?" Lu Yin shouted.
"Hahahaha, I've been unhindered all my life, but I never thought that I would be buried in a remote place like the Outerverse. Fate makes fools of me," the old man laughed maniacally. At that moment, several figures descended. They were the space-exploring powerhouses from the Leo family.
When they saw the old man, they were shocked. How could there be such a powerful cultivator in this place?
"It's your honor to be buried with me." The old man waved his hand, and the entire Driftcharge Planet changed. Time seemed to stop, and the space-exploring powerhouses appeared in front of the old man without any ability to resist. Even the Cruiser was stunned.
Lu Yin smashed into the ground again and looked back, just in time to see this scene. He could not understand how the old man had done it; the difference in their strength was too great. Following that, the void exploded as a black crack devoured everything and gradually spread out.
Lu Yin's pupils shrank, and he slammed his palm against the ground to reveal a personal spacecraft. He entered it without hesitation and immediately activated it.
The spacecraft shook and gradually rose into the sky. In the distance, the black hole grew larger and larger until it had already devoured the old man and the space-exploring powerhouses. It was about to swallow the entire Driftcharge Planet.
Mountains and rivers were completely destroyed, and lava spewed out, but it was quickly swallowed up by the black hole. In the distance, some slaves cried out in despair, but no one could save them. A wave of lava swept over them, and everything disappeared.
The spacecraft flew up at high speed, narrowly avoiding the black hole as it passed through the atmosphere and appeared in outer space.
Lu Yin looked back and saw that Driftcharge Planet was gradually disappearing.
In front of him, an extremely large spacecraft came into view; it was the Leo family's spacecraft.
A pulling force appeared, and Lu Yin's personal spacecraft was uncontrollably sucked into the Leo family's spacecraft.
Everyone from the Leo family looked at Driftcharge Planet nervously. The entire planet was about to disappear, so why hadn't the family's powerhouses appeared yet?
The spacecraft shook, and Lu Yin opened his eyes. When the hatch opened, dozens of Leo family cultivators surrounded him and stared at him. "Come out. Come out immediately."
Lu Yin slowly walked out. His entire body was wrapped in rags, and he looked like a primitive man. His hair had grown out a little, and his face was dark. He didn't look any different from the slaves.
"Take him to the Young Master," someone barked. This person was a Limiteer, and there were at least five other Limiteers around him.
Lu Yin didn't act rashly. With his Invisible Aura Technique, these people had no idea how strong he was. What they wanted to know the most right now was what had happened to Driftcharge Planet. All of the family's space-exploring powerhouses had disappeared, which was a disaster for the Leo family. Without their protection, no matter how many resources the family had, it would be impossible to transport them away.
This extremely large spacecraft was equivalent to a small city, and there were more than a hundred thousand people living inside. It floated in outer space, and the Cruiser in charge was the one in charge. However, this person had disappeared along with Driftcharge Planet. At this moment, the entire Leo family was terrified, and they couldn't wait to hear the news from Lu Yin.
The door was pushed open, and Lu Yin was pushed into the main hall, where he was surrounded by the Leo family's leaders.
Lu Yin's gaze swept over the crowd. These were the people who had almost killed him. A single beam of light had caused him to fall into the abyss, but they hadn't cared at all.
"Speak, what happened to Driftcharge Planet?" a middle-aged man barked, staring at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. This person was not weak, and he gave off a sense of danger. He was a peak Limiteer who could rival an Area Master, and there were several other peak Limiteers around him.
Although these people were not as talented as the Astral Combat Academy students who were already very strong at such a young age, they had still managed to reach the level of an Area Master or even stronger. Fortunately, Lu Yin hadn't encountered any Limiteers who could make his scalp go numb. This meant that the Leo family didn't have any Limiteers who could rival a Realm Master.
The strongest group of space-exploring cultivators had all died on Driftcharge Planet.
