It was one thing for the Unbounded to be an assassin organization, but the most important thing was that they clearly knew who the Redbacks were and who the spies were, but they did not do anything about it. They only cared about their own interests, and once the humans were defeated, they would definitely side with the Eternals, just like Celestial Dou. This was something that Lu Yin hated the most, as they were quasi-traitors.
While Xia Xing was being assassinated, far away in the Blue Moon District, a good show was also playing out. Yu Hao, who was disguised by his pupil, had a conflict with the Xia Family in the Blue Moon District, and the conflict was not small.
The Xia Family had many branches in the Starry Sky of Trees. Most large families were like this. There was also a Xia Family branch in the Green Moon District, and the family head was Xia Ru.
Back when they had escaped from the Astral Trees, Xia Ru and the others had used him to reach the cloud ladder. Because of this, Xia Ru had been severely punished by Shenwu Plane.
But this was not the most miserable thing. Xia Ru himself did not know that his sworn brother Zhu Xian had an affair with his wife.
This time, he had asked Tong Yu to disguise herself as Yu Hao and deliberately pass by Xia Ru's location to create a conflict. Not only did he want Nong Siniang to be a witness, but he also wanted Xia Ru and the rest to be witnesses. Otherwise, if the Xia family suspected that he had something to do with Xia Xing's accident, even if it was just a little, he would not be able to bear the consequences. Yu Hao's identity could not be compromised for the time being.
"Yu Hao, you've gone too far!" Xia Ru glared at the young man in front of him and roared.
This person was none other than Yu Hao, who was disguised as Mr. Haoyu in Nong Siniang's eyes.
Now, Nong Siniang was stunned. Yu Hao, Mister was actually that Yu Hao?
How could she not know about Yu Hao? The Four Way Scales had used the Yu Family as a deterrent to the Starry Sky Tree, mainly to intimidate the Lu Family, the Liu Family, and other large families that supported the Lu Family. They couldn't touch these large families, but they didn't want them to help the surviving members of the Lu Family. This was the reason why the Yu Family was involved.
Nong Siniang had heard the rumors about Yu Hao, and she had heard more than one version. She sympathized with Yu Hao, but also despised him. A man was bullied by Xia Zhitong to such an extent, and in the end, he even committed suicide. How useless.
Even if she was beaten to death, she would never have thought that the Mister Hao Yu she respected was actually that Yu Hao.
Xia Ru knew Yu Hao, which was why this happened. Otherwise, it would be meaningless to find trouble with Xia Ru and the others. It was time for Yu Hao's identity to be made public.
Tong Yu disguised herself as Yu Hao and stared coldly at Xia Ru. "Have you forgotten what happened back then?"
Xia Ru's face was ugly.
He glanced at his wife with a guilty conscience and shouted, "Yuhao, what exactly do you want?"
"Kneel," Tong Yu said calmly.
Xia Ru's expression changed.
To the side, Madam Xia and Zhu Xian looked at each other. Zhu Xian stepped forward and said, "Yuhao, no matter what happened back then, you are still part of the Xia family."
Tong Yu casually tapped with her hand, and her astral source wiped out the star energy within Zhu Xian's body. Zhu Xian was sent flying, and he crashed heavily onto the ground. "You don't have the right to speak."
Dozens of years ago, Zhu Xian had reached the critical point of breaking through to become an Emissary. However, even now, he had not dared to break through. This kind of thing was very common. It was normal for many cultivators to drag it out for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Xia Ru was furious, but facing Yu Hao, who had the cultivation of an Emissary on the surface, he was helpless. He could only kneel, but the resentment in his eyes could not be hidden. After all, he was still the head of a branch family.
Tong Yu turned around and left. "Fourth Mother, let's go."
Nong Siniang seemed to have woken up from a dream and quickly followed after him.
After they left, Xia Ru stood up and clenched his fists. His wife said angrily, "This Yu Hao didn't die and even became an Emissary. Quickly report this to the family.
The family won't let him off. "
"I know." Xia Ru gritted his teeth and stared at their departing figures. He felt a little guilty; he had once been with Xia Zhitong in the Jade Manor.
He had gone to Jade City to celebrate the marriage between the Xia and Yu families, and then naturally had a relationship with Xia Zhitong. That woman had made him forget to return, and this was one of the reasons why Yu Hao had caused trouble for him.
He did not suspect that this Yu Hao was a fake; otherwise, how would he have known about this?
Of course, Lu Yin had found out from Kui Luo. Kui Luo did not seem to care about Yu Hao's life or death, and even if Yu Hao had really died, he had not taken revenge. However, he still remembered this favor. Kui Luo had also attended Yu Hao's wedding, but he had hidden in the shadows and seen many things.
Thus, Kui Luo had not stopped Yu Hao from committing suicide. Yu Hao's heart had long since died.
Tong Yu had disguised herself as Yu Hao to cause trouble for the Xia branch family before leaving with Nong Siniang to investigate the Green Moon District's Mang Mountain.
After leaving the Xia branch family, Nong Siniang remained silent the entire way.
Tong Yu had been ordered to disguise herself as Mister Hao Yu so that Nong Siniang would know her true identity. As for what Nong Siniang was thinking, Tong Yu did not care. She was not Lu Yin, who had disguised himself as Yu Hao, so she did not need to worry about this girl.
When Tong Yu brought Nong Siniang to Mang Mountain, she asked, "Sir, are you really that Yu Hao?"
Tong Yu thought for a moment before answering, "Yes."
Nong Siniang pursed her lips and did not know what to say. She looked at Mister Hao Yu in front of her with a cold face. He was deliberately finding trouble with the Xia Clan branch just now, just to vent his anger. He had experienced a great tragedy in the world.
After learning that Mister Hao Yu was that Yu Hao, Nong Siniang did not know what to think. Sympathy?
Disdain?
Indifference?
Or the same as before?
She did not know.
It was as if this Mister Hao Yu was no longer the same Mister Hao Yu from before.
Tong Yu did not care about what the girl was thinking. She pretended to investigate for a while before bringing her back to the academy.
A few days later, at the border of the Memory District, Tong Yu left. Lu Yin once again disguised himself as Yu Hao and appeared in front of Nong Siniang. He did not say a single word as he calmly brought her back to the academy.
Just as they were about to reach the academy, Lu Yin took the initiative to speak, "Everyone has a past. Whether it's sad or happy, it's all history. We have to be responsible for it, which is why we have this exploration course. However, we will not be trapped in history. The greatest strength of humans is their intelligence, and they will improve."
Nong Siniang looked at Lu Yin's back with a complicated expression.
Improvement? Could this person's history be forgotten so easily?
Lu Yin suddenly turned around and smiled at her, "Are you willing to tell me about how you wet your bed when you were young?"
Nong Siniang's face immediately turned red, "What? What do you mean by that?"
Lu Yin smiled, "Should I look at the current you or the past you?
“。
Nong Siniang's heart trembled, and the confusion she had felt over the past few days instantly disappeared. The knot in her heart was untied, and a smile appeared on her face, "I understand, sir."
Lu Yin smiled, "Although I didn't gain anything this time, extra-curricular practice is still a compulsory course for students. Go back. Right, don't be stingy with your credits."
Nong Siniang nodded and her eyes darted around, "Sir, you actually went to the Blue Moon District on purpose, right?"
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold, and he instantly disappeared without being seen through, "What do you mean?"
"You actually wanted to go to the Blue Moon District.
They want to cause trouble for the Xia Clan in the Green Moon District. Am I right? "Nong Siniang asked with interest.
Lu Yin's lips curled up, "Guess for yourself." He then left.
Nong Siniang stared at Lu Yin's departing figure for a long time before slapping her face, "What does my past have to do with you?
Siniang, don't think too much, don't think too much, "she muttered to herself, but then contacted someone," Brother, I've been bullied. Who is it?
Xia Zhitong, I'm going to cause trouble for her … "
On the other side, after Lu Yin returned to the stone pillar, he took out his gadget and inserted a crystal card into it. A video appeared, showing the entire process of Yu Hao pretending to be Yu Hao and causing trouble for Xia Ru. This was something Lu Yin had prepared to prevent himself from being investigated by Shenwu Plane.
He wanted to ensure that he really did cause trouble for the Xia family, and he couldn't miss out on any details.
Xia Xing had come to the Central Realm because of him, and there was no shortage of smart people anywhere. Shenwu Plane might shift their attention to him, so he couldn't be suspected for the time being.
As for Xia Xing, he wasn't in a hurry to make a move. He was afraid that this person had some undetectable method to leave traces behind in Shenwu Plane.
Xia Xing had gone out alone, so news of his death didn't quickly reach Shenwu Plane. However, as the leader of one of the Four Libras, it was abnormal for him to disappear for several days in a row.
Finally, on the third day after Xia Xing was captured, Shenwu Plane fully investigated the path he had taken. Countless people from the Four Libras focused their attention on the border between Huaiyuan and Blue Moon. Xia Xing had been ambushed there.
The area where Xia Xing had been ambushed had obvious traces of battle, and the void was still unstable. If not for the fact that the Central Realm was so large, attacking Xia Xing would have attracted the attention of experts.
Xia Ziheng calmly looked at the Mother Tree. Around him, a group of cultivators from Shenwu Plane had sealed off the void and were constantly investigating something.
After a while, an elder reported in a low voice, "It's Boundless. There's still traces of the Black Net's poison in the void, and from the traces, it's the usual method of ambushing experts."
Xia Ziheng frowned. "Is there someone in Boundless who can deal with Sect Master?"
"I don't know. Boundless has always been mysterious. They even dared to enter the Frigid Immortal Sect to assassinate you. As long as the price is high enough, there's nothing they won't do," the elder said. However, he soon grew suspicious. "But even if Boundless has the ability to ambush Sect Master, it's too rushed. How could Boundless have prepared in such a short time?
Unless … "
Xia Ziheng's eyes widened. "Unless someone contacted Boundless in advance and told them to prepare an ambush to confirm that Sect Master would come to the Central Realm."
The elder bowed slightly and didn't say anything else. Since Xia Ziheng had guessed it, there was no need for him to say anything. Moreover, if his guess was true, then it wasn't something he could interfere with. How many people in the entire Shenwu Plane could know about Sect Master's whereabouts?
He couldn't afford to offend any of them, so it was best to avoid them.
The first person Xia Ziheng thought of was Yu Hao. Other than him, who else would know that Sect Master had come to the Central Realm?
As the master of the Shenwu Plane, he usually wouldn't leave the sect. Even if Boundless had information to monitor Xia Xing's whereabouts, they wouldn't have the time to arrange it. Only by confirming the assassination candidate in advance could they arrange it in such a short time.
Could Yu Hao be him?
"Investigate the whereabouts of Mister Hao Yu from Yi Xian Academy," Xia Ziheng ordered.
The Shenwu Plane was a colossus. With one order, countless people began to move. In less than half a day, Hao Yu's tracks appeared before Xia Ziheng's eyes.
