The only people related to the Yu family were Grandpa Ba and Xia Zhitong. Once Lu Yin dealt with Grandpa Ba, Xia Zhitong would be next.
The Yu family's former mansion had become a place for Xia Zhitong and her gigolos. It was rumored that there were sixty-nine rooms here, and sixty-nine gigolos lived there. Xia Zhitong had transformed the Yu family, including the servants, guards, and even the odd-job workers. All of them were handsome, and as long as she was in the mood, she could play with them whenever she wanted.
Many people would walk around the mansion when they came to Jade City, just to take a look at this legendary mansion. It was worth mentioning that a plaque with the words' Jade Mansion 'was still hung here, and it was the most scenic spot in the city.
The Rainbow Bridge's yellow radiance was covered by the earth, and the sky outside Jade City was covered by a veil, causing night to fall.
Outside the jade mansion, Lu Yin looked at the guards on both sides of the gate. He had to admit that Xia Zhitong was really ruthless. These guards had been carefully selected, and their appearances were clearly above the average man's. They even had a somber air about them.
There weren't many experts in Jade City.
Lu Yin easily entered the mansion and found Xia Zhitong. The dark red room was filled with extravagance, and there was even the sound of a woman's laughter.
Xia Zhitong was beautiful, and her voice was especially graceful and gentle. Her voice was even more enticing; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to charm Little Prince Yu.
Giggles could be heard coming from the room, along with the voices of men.
Tong Yu looked at Lu Yin strangely, "You're not going in?"
Lu Yin frowned, thinking about how to deal with Xia Zhitong. He definitely couldn't kill her; how could he rely on her to enter Shenwu Plane?
Even if he wanted to kill her, he would have to give up his identity as Little Prince Yu.
He couldn't kill her, but he also wanted to use her.
"Old man, what do you think we should do?"
Lu Yin asked.
Kui Luo shushed him, "Don't talk, just listen."
Lu Yin blinked and looked at Kui Luo strangely, just like how Tong Yu had looked at him, "You have a hobby of listening to these things?"
"Cut the crap, here comes the main topic," Kui Luo growled.
Xia Zhitong's voice came from the room, "I'll say it one more time. If you still can't get me to join the Break Society, then don't ever come here again."
"Baby, it's not that I don't want you to join, it's just that it's too difficult to enter the Breaking Trade Society. You're too famous, and you don't have the ability to attract those big shots. If you join, not only will you be exposed, you might even attract the attention of the Four Directions Scale. That would be troublesome."
Xia Zhitong harrumphed coldly. "You think too highly of me. I'm just a pawn of the Xia Clan. The Xia Clan controls Shenwu Plane, but they don't completely represent Shenwu Plane. It's just like how your uncle, the Left Commander, also belongs to Shenwu Plane, but he doesn't belong to the Xia Clan. I'm just a collateral member of the Xia Clan.
"Don't think that I don't know what the outside world thinks of me. The Yu Family's reputation is bad, and my reputation isn't good either. The Xia Family can't wait to stay away from me, and no one is willing to get close to me. Even that uncle of mine is the same. If I don't think of ways to protect myself, when the day comes that I'm forgotten, my fate won't be much better than the Yu Family's.
The man sighed, "The Break Society isn't as powerful as you think. If the situation is as you say, then the Break Society won't be able to protect you. The world of cultivation is too real. No matter how influential the Break Society is, as long as they don't have the strength to deal with the Lu family's descendants, it won't matter even if the entire Astral Tree belongs to them.
They're facing the entire Astral Tree. "
"They're not even afraid of the Four Cardinal Scales, so why would they be afraid of the Break Society?"
Xia Zhitong's voice lowered, "So you won't recommend me?"
The man muttered to himself, "Wait a moment. Wait until my position is higher, or until my uncle's position is higher. You don't want to try rashly and never be able to enter."
Outside, Lu Yin was curious. "What's the Break Society?"
Kui Luo replied, "I've heard of it before. It's a group formed by many minor characters. They hope to use their own influence to influence a portion of the Astral Tree."
Lu Yin was shocked. "There's such an organization?"
He had merged with many cultivators in the Astral Tree, but he had never seen any information about the Break Society.
Kui Luo laughed strangely. "There's a clear hierarchy in the Astral Tree. The Top Realm has the Four Cardinal Scales, the Middle Realm has the School of Agriculture, the Liu family, and a few other families. No matter what others do, they can't compare to them. Once there's a sign, the Four Cardinal Scales will either take the experts away or bring them to the Alliance. Do you think that only the Lu family's descendants and those in the Alliance will resist the Four Cardinal Scales?
"Some people have been oppressed for too long. They don't dare to resist openly, but they've secretly joined forces."
"Is that useful?"
Lu Yin didn't understand.
Kui Luo thought about it for a moment. "The Break Society didn't have much influence when it was first established. I just happened to know about them back then, but as they developed, more and more people joined them. These people don't seem special at first glance, and they don't have much influence, but when they work together, they can affect things. My deepest impression is that they can influence the frequency at which certain people participate in the war on the other side to ensure that they survive."
Lu Yin was shocked. "They can do that?"
Kui Luo nodded. "I've seen the list, and they can indeed do it. Any cultivator who enters the war on the other side has to follow the arrangements and participate for a certain number of years or how many wars they've participated in. However, there are people from the Break Society who are in charge of calculating the number of years or battles. They can't make large changes, but they can make small changes, such as the number of years or battles. In the end, many people can leave the war on the other side half a year or even a year earlier than others.
"For cultivators with backgrounds, being able to leave the war on the other side early, even if it's just one or two days earlier, is a good thing. Otherwise, they might die in one of the battles."
Lu Yin understood. The war on the other side was too vast, and it was impossible to check on everyone. They didn't need to directly change a person's experience; they only needed to make small changes to affect that person's chances of survival.
"This is just one of the Break Society's businesses, and it's a very cautious one. Apart from that, there are people from all walks of life who join the Break Society. They don't need to be the most powerful, but they definitely hold important positions and can help the Break Society accomplish certain things. Every now and then, the Break Society will nurture people to join the various walks of life. After so many years, I don't even know how much influence the Break Society has."
Lu Yin was surprised. "You've never paid attention to it?"
Kui Luo rolled his eyes. "Why would I? No matter how big its influence is, it can't really affect the affairs of the Astral Tree. Trying to make a big deal out of nothing is just an unrealistic dream. Even if they have one or two half-ancestors behind them, as long as those behemoths notice them, they can be destroyed in a matter of minutes. Besides, they might not even have one or two half-ancestors behind them."
。
"That kid inside is right. If the Lu family's remnant wants to touch someone, the Break Society won't be able to protect them."
"Then why are you eavesdropping now?
You seem to care a lot. "Lu Yin was puzzled.
Kui Luo pursed his lips. "Cut the crap. Just listen."
Lu Yin shook his head. This old man just loved to listen to secrets, no matter who it was.
"There's one half-ancestor behind the Break Society, but I don't know how many there are. Let's see if I can find out more, hehe." Kui Luo chuckled to himself.
Inside the room, Xia Zhitong and the man were still talking, but the topic had gradually changed. They no longer talked about the Break Society, but instead about business, such as the sale of mother tree barks and the selection of courtesans.
Lu Yin listened for a while and learned that the man's identity was the Trade Union's Inspector.
He knew about the Trade Union, as he had obtained memories of it when he had fused with Elder Greenapricot's body.
As long as there was a trade, there would be an organization that protected it, which was the so-called Trade Union.
The Fifth Mainland also had such an organization, so it wasn't strange for the Astral Tree Society to have one as well.
The Trade Union's status wasn't high, and it was only there to earn money and serve the behemoths.
The conversation inside was all about trivial matters. Kui Luo sighed regretfully. "That's it."
Lu Yin sighed. "It's time to talk to this Xia Zhitong."
The dark red room was filled with clothes, and Xia Zhitong was curled up in the man's embrace. She spoke softly, but her eyes were terrifyingly deep.
At that moment, a voice came from outside. "Mistress, Yuhao is back."
Xia Zhitong suddenly stood up, her snow-white skin glaring under the red light. The man's eyes gleamed, and he licked his lips. "Yuhao?
That Young Master Yu?
Isn't he dead? "
"He's just missing." Xia Zhitong frowned. "How did he come back?
Alone? "
"Yes, alone. He looks very haggard."
Xia Zhitong stood up, but the man hugged her. "Darling, don't worry about him. Play with him first."
Xia Zhitong pushed him away and giggled. "He's my husband in name."
"Hmph, he's just a Xiao Bai. Isn't it good that he's dead?
He actually came back. Doesn't he know that he's the biggest joke in the entire Astral Tree Domain? "The man sneered." The bed we're on belongs to him, haha. "
Xia Zhitong only put on an almost transparent gauze and walked out. It barely covered her body.
The man cursed on the bed and got up in a bad mood. He couldn't see this woman again, and he definitely couldn't bring her into the Broken Ease Society. Otherwise, the society would be exposed. Although he liked to play, he wasn't stupid. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to join the Broken Ease Society even with his status as her uncle.
He was more cautious than anyone else.
However, just as he was about to leave, a visual message appeared in front of him.
He was stunned. How could there be a woman in the jade manor?
And this woman was very alluring.
On the other side, Lu Yin sat quietly in the main hall of the jade manor. He was surrounded by guards who glared at him fiercely, as if they wanted to eat him alive. At the same time, there was mockery and ridicule in the depths of their eyes.
Footsteps sounded, and Lu Yin looked towards the door.
Xia Zhitong walked over, bringing with her a fragrant scent. Their eyes met, and the veil covering her body made the surrounding guards gulp.
