Lu Yin didn't mind Wang Si's words and replied, "That's your business. In any case, I want the Second Nightking to complete a mission for me. You can negotiate with Old Whiteghost."
Wang Si gritted her teeth and replied coldly, "No junior has ever dared to speak to me like that. Even when you were still Lu Xiaoxuan, you had to be respectful to me."
"Cut the crap, it's your business whether you agree or not. Wang Su is so pretty, and I'm even considering having a child with her. Someone needs to inherit the Lu bloodline, so don't worry, I'll be responsible for her. I heard that my father did the same back then," Lu Yin casually replied.
Kui Luo grinned; they were indeed the same.
Wang Si's eyes were bloodshot, and she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Lu bastards are all the same. Fine, I'll make a deal with you. Release Wang Su and Wang Yi after this, or I'll kill you even if I have to risk my life." She then turned and walked towards Old Whiteghost.
Kui Luo moved closer to Lu Yin with a strange expression, "Kid, do you really want something to happen between you and Wang Su?"
Lu Yin rolled his eyes, "Of course not, I have a wife. I'm just scaring her. I'm not that despicable."
"You really are the same as your father," Kui Luo praised, though it wasn't clear whether it was praise or disdain.
Lu Yin smiled, "I use different methods to deal with different people. For a mortal enemy like Wang Si, nothing is too much. But I have my limits, and I know what to do and what not to do."
On the other side, Old Whiteghost looked over with deep suspicion; Wang Si seemed to be talking to him about something.
Lu Yin didn't care what Wang Si did; they were all part of the Four Sides of the Scale. To Old Whiteghost, the Second Nightking was strong, but he was still a slave, and the Wang family had plenty of ways to make him agree.
Not long after, Wang Si and Old Whiteghost approached.
"What mission do you want the Second Nightking to complete?"
Old Whiteghost asked.
Lu Yin replied, "It's none of your business."
"You!" Old Whiteghost was displeased. Wang Si snorted, "Old man, we had a deal."
Old Whiteghost waved his hand and barked, "Second Nightking, come here."
In the distance, the Second Nightking's heart sank when he heard Old Whiteghost's voice; it was him again.
He had been the one to explain the mysterious person's appearance, and now it was him.... He knew that Lu Yin wouldn't let him off.
Lu Yin looked over. He naturally wouldn't let a traitor off the hook.
Ever since his identity had been exposed, Lu Yin had tried to use the Caged Cage Technique to control the Second Nightking, but it had failed and the Second Nightking had been controlled by Old Whiteghost.
With Old Ghost Bai's strength, he easily dispelled the Caged Spell. After all, the Caged Spell was created by the Bai family, so it was more suitable for them to use.
It was also because Old Whiteghost had controlled the Second Nightking that the Second Nightking had told them about Lu Yin, allowing them to find this place.
It was not accurate to say that it was a betrayal. No one wanted to die.
"Can you speak now?" Old Whiteghost asked Lu Yin when he saw that the Second Nightking had arrived.
The Second Nightking looked at Lu Yin, and his eyes were filled with apprehension. He was a peerless powerhouse, but after escaping from the ruins of the Frigid Immortal Sect, his life had been miserable. First, he had been locked up in Kun's Swamp by the head judge, and then he had been controlled by Lu Yin. After that, it was Old Whiteghost, and now, it was Lu Yin. He felt as if he had lost all of his dignity.
The more they understood Lu Yin, the more they realized how troublesome it was to be targeted by him. Even though Lu Yin was just an Emissary, the matters that he was involved with might not even be settled by a Half-Martial Ancestor.
Lu Yin looked at the Second Nightking's wary and apprehensive expression and found it funny. "Don't worry, it's not a suicide mission."
Lu Yin raised his hand and a wireless gu appeared. "You know about this. Your mission is to bring it to Elder Chan."
The Second Nightking's eyes widened. "Go to the Neoverse?"
Lu Yin nodded and tossed a few wireless gu to the Second Nightking. "It's simple, right?"
The Second Nightking was not stupid, and if Wen Zizai could think of it, so could he.
If he stayed here, he could follow the Frigid Immortal Sect to the Astral Trees. Although he would still be controlled by the Frigid Immortal Sect's Bai family, it was better than waiting for death. If he left, he might encounter the Eternals.
If he could not replenish his astralsource, he would die if he left.
He could not help but look at Old Whiteghost.
Old Whiteghost frowned and turned to leave. He had clearly agreed.
"What are you hesitating for?
Isn't it better to fight for your freedom than to follow the Frigid Immortal Sect and become a slave to the Bai family?
If you go to the Neoverse, Old Whiteghost will go to another part of the universe, and he won't be able to control you. "
The Second Nightking was helpless. "I understand."
"Senior, I'll have to trouble you," Lu Yin said to the Heavenly Master.
The Heavenly Master nodded and left with the Second Nightking's sourcebox formation.
On the other side, Wang Si was staring at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin took out Mount Supreme and released Wang Su and Wang Yi.
The two were at a loss when they came out.
"What are you waiting for? What a disgrace!" Wang Si shouted.
The two hurried behind Wang Si and looked up to see Lu Yin.
Wang Yi's gaze was filled with unwillingness. He was a cold person, and this experience had clearly affected him.
Wang Su looked at Lu Yin deeply, as if he wanted to engrave him in his heart.
Wang Si had nothing to say to Lu Yin, so she left with them.
"What a pity." Lu Yin was disappointed. "I let go of such a good hostage. I don't know if it was worth it."
"It doesn't matter if it was worth it or not," Kui Luo said, sizing up Lu Yin. "Speaking of which, your mouth is quite annoying sometimes."
Lu Yin pursed his lips. "It's a misunderstanding. How would I know that she'd go crazy?"
"That's true ability." Kui Luo sighed and smiled. "Being annoying is the way of the king."
Lu Yin didn't want to talk about this, as he felt like he was being dragged down. "There's something I forgot to tell you. I once met someone who's quite suitable to be your disciple."
Kui Luo straightened his back and waved a hand. "I'm all alone in this world and don't need any disciples. There's no one qualified to be my disciple."
Lu Yin casually replied, "I think that person is alright. There's a secret technique called keeping one's word. People will believe what they say."
Kui Luo was puzzled. "I wasn't encouraging you when I praised you. It was just a casual compliment. Don't use that on me. Do you think I'm stupid? How could there be such a boring secret technique?"
Lu Yin looked at Kui Luo seriously. "I didn't believe it either until I saw it with my own eyes. If we meet in the future, I'll introduce you to him. He's not bad." He then left.
Kui Luo was at a loss. Was there really such a secret technique?
Secret techniques were created by Ancestor Realm experts. With such a secret technique, how bored was the Ancestor Realm expert that created it?
Hmm?
Suddenly, Kui Luo looked towards the south.
At the same time, Ni Huang and the other Half-Ancestors also looked towards the south. They could feel the aftermath of a battle between Half-Ancestors.
At the edge of the Cosmic Sea, the astral beast was about to head towards the Innerverse's eastern flowzone when Lu Buzheng, who was leisurely sipping his tea, suddenly looked towards the west.
Suddenly, he looked to the west and immediately had the astral beast turn around. "It's Hen Xin. It looks like he's met a strong enemy."
Not long after, the astral beast arrived at the edge of the Gu Flowzone. Under the surging poisonous gas, a figure stood in space, fresh blood flowing down his back.
When the astral beast arrived, that person calmly turned around and met Lu Buzheng's gaze.
Lu Buzheng was shocked. "You're injured?"
The person at the edge of the Gu Flowzone was Hen Xin.
On the astral beast's back, the youth in white robes with golden embroidery was also shocked. Although he wasn't a Half-Ancestor, he was well aware of the strength of the Twelve Elysian Gates' leaders. Hen Xin was an ordinary person with no innate talent or background, but he had cultivated to the peak as an ordinary person and cultivated three ultimates. People like that were even more difficult to deal with.
None of the Twelve Elysian Gates' leaders were easy to deal with.
However, Hen Xin had actually been injured by a Half-Ancestor of this era. In Lu Buzheng's opinion, this should be impossible.
Although they had only been in this era for a short period of time, they understood that this era could not compare to the era when the humans were at their peak. The difference in cultivation was more than just an era. Otherwise, the Eternals would not have been able to invade and destroy the five mainlands.
However, the person who had been injured was not a Half-Ancestor of this era, but one of the Twelve Elysian Gates' leaders from the era of Above Heaven.
Hen Xin took a step forward and landed on the astral beast's back. His expression was solemn. "We encountered two Eternals, but one of them is human. Her innate talent is strange, and she's quite strong. If I'm not mistaken, the technique she used should be from the Wang family."
Lu Buzheng frowned. "My Fifth Mainland's Wang family?"
Hen Xin solemnly replied, "Not only that. The technique she used came from the Wang family, but her movement technique came from the tablet protector."
"Senior Wu Xing." Lu Buzheng was shocked.
Hen Xin solemnly said, "Many things have changed since our era. Some people have died, and others have betrayed us. We need to reevaluate this era." He then took out the wireless gu. "Before that, let's deal with the Eternals first. They can only use the strength of a Half-Ancestor under the Progenitor realm, so they have an advantage over us. However, we might not be able to do it with just the two of us. We need to contact the Half-Ancestors of this era."
The wireless gu could ignore distance, but unfortunately, it could not be used for video calls or conversations.
With a cultivator's learning ability, they could easily control the wireless gu. Hen Xin quickly used the gu to contact Lu Yin.
Lu Yin looked at the information sent by the wireless gu and immediately went to find Kui Luo and Heavenly Master Shangsheng. "It's that ancient powerhouse from before. He fought with the Eternals. The Corpse King and Wang Hou should have been injured."
"You encountered Wang Hou?"
Heavenly Master Shangsheng was shocked. "It seems that these people from the Primordial Era are more powerful than we thought. Wang Hou is not simple. Someone who could escape from her must be at least at the level of Elder Chan or Ni Huang."
Lu Yin shook his head. "He was the one who defeated Wang Hou and heavily injured the Corpse King. If Wang Hou hadn't used his innate gift to injure him, then at least one of the two Half-Ancestors would have been left behind."
Heavenly Master Shangsheng fell silent. They had always believed that the people of this era were not inferior to the ancients. In the past, there had been Progenitor Chen, Talisman Progenitor, and Progenitor Wushang. These Progenitors were all shockingly talented, but they were only Progenitors. At the level of Half-Ancestor, they were far inferior to these ancient powerhouses.
Wang Hou had been able to hold back five Half-Ancestors by himself, but that person had been able to defeat Wang Hou. This was the strength of one of the twelve Heavenly Gates' leaders.
The wireless gu continued to transmit information.
Lu Yin looked at it and suddenly became overjoyed. He hurriedly sent a message.
