"Haha, you're one of the rare few who dares to speak to a Half-Martial Ancestor like that. Hahahaha!" Dean Wen laughed heartily.
Lu Yin did not care. "After experiencing some things, I've come to terms with many things. So what if you're a normal person? So what if you're a Half-Ancestor? Even if you're a Progenitor, you're still a human. When faced with death, you're still worried and fearful. When faced with emotions, you're still a human.
President Wen sighed in admiration, "Only someone who's experienced life and death would be able to comprehend something like this. My words just now were unnecessary. As long as you're not afraid, he won't do anything to you. Divine Master Gu Yan isn't someone to be trifled with."
Lu Yin didn't have the heart to lie to Dean Wen, but he had never taken the initiative to do so. It was always what other people assumed. When he had spoken to Xia Ziheng earlier, he had never mentioned that Gu Yan was his master. These people were just overconfident and thought that they were smart enough to analyze certain things, but they didn't know that their cleverness had backfired on them.
Of course, he was not talking about Dean Wen. Dean Wen did not have the intention to harm him. At most, he guessed wrong.
"Ever since the Lu family disappeared, the Four Way Scale has become more and more tyrannical. A few decades ago, it didn't dare to do anything to Yi Xian Academy, but things have changed now. If you and Xia Ziheng have not reached an agreement, then it's best that you don't go to Shenwu Plane. It's too dangerous." Dean Wen advised Lu Yin once more before sending him back. He did not mention anything about Yu Hao's identity.
There were some things that he did not care about, but there were some people that he had to protect. However, he could only protect them as much as possible. Once they left Yi Xian Academy, he would not be able to protect them.
Lu Yin returned to his own courtyard and coincidentally bumped into Mr. Tang, who greeted him.
The Dark Phoenix replaced the Fire Phoenix. The sky was dark, and only the stars were shining.
Lu Yin sat beside the stone table and dipped his finger in water as he wrote a few words on the stone table: the Star Alliance, the Red Garden, the Nine Clones, the Food Paradise, the Seal Technique, and so on. These were enough to shock the entire Cosmic Tree Realm, and this was what he needed to do.
How could he obtain the method of restriction?
How could he save the people in the Red Garden?
How could he learn the Nine Clones?
Every single task was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for even a Half Martial Ancestor. He had to complete all of these tasks before Yu Hao's time limit expired. However, his thoughts were in a mess.
Subconsciously, he raised his hand again and wrote the two words' Hidden Earth 'on the stone table. Then, after thinking for a while, he wrote' Broken Peace Society 'and' Boundless World '. Wait, Boundless World?
If others could use Unbounded to deal with him, then why couldn't he use it to deal with the people he wanted to deal with?
Unbounded Realm had assassinated the Sect Master of the Cold Immortal Sect. As long as the benefits were in place, they would dare to do anything.
He controlled all the resources of the Fifth Mainland. What benefits could Unbounded not have?
Even if he didn't have it, he could still give it to them.
Yes, Boundless. Lu Yin stared at the two words on the stone table and fell into deep thought.
Within the courtyard, Lu Yin took out the mirror. Because he was worried that the Fog Ancestor would suddenly appear, he had stored the mirror in his cosmic ring as soon as he returned to Yi Xian Academy. However, he had no choice but to use it now. He could not just sit around and do nothing because he was worried that the Half-Progenitors within the academy would monitor him.
He took out the mirror, but the Mist Ancestor did not come out. Lu Yin had no choice but to enter the mirror. "Senior?"
The Fog Ancestor's voice came from behind the fog. "What is it?"
"Senior, can you come out for a moment?"
Lu Yin smiled fawningly.
The Mist Ancestor was displeased. "You can look for me when you need me, but if you don't, then put the mirror away in your cosmic ring. I'm not your nanny."
Lu Yin hurriedly tried to curry favor with the Misty Ancestor, and at the same time, he showered the Misty Ancestor with all sorts of praise.
He walked out of the mirror.
After that, the Misty Ancestor looked around. "No one's watching. You can play by yourself." He then returned to the mirror.
Lu Yin followed him in. "Senior, Yi Xian Academy has three Half-Progenitors, and Half-Progenitors can appear at any time in the Cosmic Tree Domain. If you suddenly appear without knowing what's going on in the outside world, this will make things very difficult for me."
"Not knowing?
Are you talking about me? "
The Misty Ancestor's voice rose in pitch.
Lu Yin hurriedly explained, "No, it's my fault for not properly handling the outside world. It's definitely not that you don't know. Senior is the Misty Ancestor of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas, and even Progenitor Chen and Progenitor Ku look up to you. Even if Bai Wangyuan or Wang Fan were here, they would have to respectfully address you as Misty Ancestor."
"Hmph, I won't casually go out," the Misty Ancestor said before ignoring Lu Yin.
Lu Yin relaxed and did not put the mirror away in his cosmic ring. He was afraid that the Misty Ancestor would become angry and not help him in the future, so it was better to talk things out now.
After confirming that no one was watching him, Lu Yin scattered his astral sources throughout the courtyard and then took out Mount Supreme and entered.
He immediately found Yu Chen. "I want to contact Boundless."
Within Mount Supreme, almost everyone had separated, and Yu Chen was alone in the valley. Lu Yin's sudden appearance gave her a fright, and she was afraid that he would do something to her.
"Boundless?
You're in the Cosmic Tree Domain? "
Yu Chen was excited.
Lu Yin replied, "I can't let you go for now."
Yu Chen grunted softly. "Boundless is the largest assassin intelligence organization in the Cosmic Tree Domain, and its spies are spread throughout the entire domain. It's not difficult to contact them, but it's difficult to find the upper echelons of Boundless. Fortunately, I still have their contact information." She then passed it over to Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was very clear about Boundless' position in the Cosmic Tree Domain. It was both an assassin organization and an intelligence organization, and it had an unclear relationship with some people in the Four Way Scales. When he had traveled the Cosmic Tree Domain under the alias of Draconic Seven, he had even said that Kui Luo was from Boundless. Otherwise, he would not have been able to explain so much information about the Redbacks.
Superintendent Qingchen had believed him, which meant that Boundless might be able to find out who the Redbacks were and who the spies were. Even so, they were still unable to eliminate Boundless, which showed how difficult it was to deal with.
Since Boundless was so difficult to deal with, Lu Yin decided to let the Four Way Scales experience it for themselves.
He put Mount Supreme away and then took out the Cloudconnect Stone. He tried to contact Yu Chen using the method she had given him, but he used Death's Mask to disguise himself.
Soon, a pair of dark and narrow eyes appeared. "What is it?"
"You're from Boundless?"
Lu Yin asked.
The eyes stared at Lu Yin. "Since you can contact me, why are you so suspicious?"
"I want to hire you guys. How much do you charge?"
Lu Yin asked, feeling a sense of déjà vu. Right, he had once asked the Old Smoker for help. The Old Smoker needed natural treasures that could help him avoid danger, and Lu Yin had plenty of them. In the end, he had brought the Old Smoker to the Great Yu Empire.
"Who is the target? Are you going to provide us with information, or do you need us to provide it?"
The voice asked coldly.
Lu Yin replied, "The target's status is quite high, and his cultivation is also quite high. I don't know if you guys have the guts to act."
"Feel free to speak." The voice did not care. Their most glorious achievement was assassinating the sect master of the Frigid Immortal Sect. That was the Frigid Immortal Sect, and they had become famous overnight.
Lu Yin's gaze trembled. "Sect Master of the Divine Martial Celestial Sect, Xia Xing."
The cold and narrow eyes suddenly widened as he stared at Lu Yin in shock. He stared at Lu Yin deeply, as if trying to see through him.
Lu Yin did not care. He had used Death's Mask to disguise himself as a Half-Progenitor.
Even the Cloudconnect Stone couldn't see through him. Boundless definitely wouldn't know who he was, and the Cloudconnect Stone that he used to contact Boundless was not one that he often used as Yu Hao.
"Sure," the voice said, no longer as calm as before. Instead, it sounded solemn. "The reward will be a Progenitor item, a deposit, and a Half-Progenitor item."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "What do you mean?"
"Pay the deposit first. If the assassination succeeds, you'll give us the Progenitor item, and we'll return the deposit. If the assassination fails, we won't return the deposit, and we won't need the Progenitor item as a reward."
"What Progenitor item?"
Lu Yin asked.
"That's your problem. You must give us a satisfactory Progenitor item. If the assassination takes place within the Divine Martial Sect, we'll give you three Progenitor items," the voice said.
Lu Yin thought about it. He had Progenitor items, but he couldn't give them to Boundless. They were the Grim Reaper's Left Arm, the slipper, and the corpse. He couldn't give them to Boundless either. He didn't really want Boundless to kill Xia Xing; Boundless had only acted as a pretense. If Xia Xing died, how could he obtain the Divine Martial Sect's restrictions?
"I'll give you ten more seconds. If you don't give us a satisfactory Progenitor item, we'll drop the matter."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "Tribulation crystal pillars?"
Gloomy Dark's eyes narrowed. "You have a tribulation crystal pillar?"
Lu Yin immediately took out a tribulation crystal pillar. He originally had two: one from the Meditative Ruins and the other from the Dragon Ancestor. He had given one to Ming Yan when he had changed his name to Draconic Seven, and he only had one left.
Gloomy Dark pondered for a moment as he looked at the pillar, but before he could speak, Lu Yin suddenly thought of something. "Rumor has it that Boundless has connections with some important figures in the Four Way Libra. Could it be related to Xia Xing?"
The voice was icy. "Even if Xia Xing is from Boundless, as long as you pay the price, we'll kill him."
Lu Yin was stunned.
"You're paying for the life of Xia Xing, the master of Divine Martial Sect. Even if he's related to Boundless, he still has to bear the brunt of this attack. This is Boundless' reputation."
Lu Yin sighed. "That's good. How about it? Are you satisfied with the tribulation crystal pillar?"
"Yes, as a deposit, you can place the half-progenitor item somewhere and notify us. Our people will go and retrieve it. Once the deposit is collected, we'll arrange for the assassination of Xia Xing. The time is uncertain, so listen to our arrangements. After all, you only have one tribulation crystal pillar."
Lu Yin said, "Xia Xing should be coming to the Central Realm soon."
"We have our own plans."
"I need him to assassinate Xia Xing while he's in the Central Realm. When the time comes, you have to tell me in advance."
"That's against the rules."
"I can also give you the deposit for the half-progenitor item."
Gloomy Dark Eyes remained silent for a moment. "Alright."
After ending the call, Lu Yin searched through his entire body. The only half-progenitor item he had found was the needle, and he did not plan on giving it to Boundless.
He was reluctant to part with the Aged Wood, as he felt that the Desolate Ancestor had left behind some time power within it. Styx was fine, as long as he could raise it to the half-progenitor level, he could give it to Boundless. After all, he had the Fog Ancestor with him.
Styx still needed to be raised, and he was not yet a half-progenitor. However, he was only one step away from that level, and it would definitely consume a lot of energy.
