"What do you want to do now?"
You Fang asked.
Lu Yin sighed. "I just want to take Zijing away. I don't care about Transcendence, Cultivation Technique, or He Ran. I just want to take Zijing back to the Void God Universe. Brother Xu Heng, Big Sis Xu Ling, Xu Wuwei, and Senior Xu Wuwei are all there. I just want to help the Void God Universe get rid of the spies, and I don't care about anything else."
"But you can't take Zijing away," You Fang said.
Lu Yin frowned and stared blankly at the ground.
You Fang and You Lele looked at each other and walked towards Lu Yin, "I can help you take Zijing away."
Lu Yin looked at You Fang, "I didn't trust He Ran, and I don't trust you either."
You Fang replied, "You won't lose anything."
"Just because I don't see any losses doesn't mean there won't be any."
You Fang said, "Without my help, you'll never be able to take Zijing away."
Lu Yin smiled, "You said that Zijing is now working for Dominator Transcendence, not He Ran. I'm worried about her, but as long as the Cultivation Technique is successful, Zijing will be the next You Family. Why should I interfere? If it doesn't work, I'll just wait."
You Lele rolled his eyes. Now that he was smart, this guy's reaction was quite fast.
You Fang was stunned. If Lu Yin was really willing to wait, he wouldn't be able to convince him otherwise.
"He Ran schemed against you, and you're just going to let it go?"
You Fang was unhappy.
Lu Yin said, "Didn't you say that I'll make Zijing pay the price if I see her?
Consider it a deal. "
You Lele sneered; he'd already said everything he wanted to say. Now that Xuan Qi was using their words to refute him, he was speechless.
You Fang glared at You Lele before looking at Lu Yin, "If Zijing is the next You Family, then you'll never be able to be with her."
Lu Yin raised a brow.
You Fang continued, "I know you don't believe me, but think about it. Can the You Family join the Void God Universe?"
Lu Yin's gaze froze; this was true.
"Do you think Transcendence will let Zijing go for such an important Cultivation Technique?
Once the research is successful, Zijing's status will be extraordinary. She can do anything, but leave Transcendence. That's reality. You won't be able to take her away, even if you become an Extreme. Unless you're a corpse... "
Lu Yin fell into deep thought.
"It's up to you. Do you want Zijing alive or a corpse?" You Fang left with You Lele, giving Lu Yin time to think.
Of course, he wanted to cooperate with the You family, but he couldn't just do it like this. He had to take the initiative, and the more You Fang tried to persuade him, the more important his status as Xuan Qi would be in You Fang's heart. This would also give You Fang more weight in their future cooperation.
"I want to take Zijing with me, but why should I trust you? You might just sell me out." You Fang smiled bitterly. "You're right. I want to take Zijing, but why should I trust you?
You Fang laughed. "To whom?
Do you have enemies in Hyperspace? "
Lu Yin replied, "Just treat it as a game. Your You family plays games all year round, and normal people like us can't beat you. I need to make sure that I'm safe."
You Fang looked at You Lele.
You Lele asked, "What kind of guarantee do you want?"
"I haven't thought about it yet."
You Fang nodded. "Alright, I'll give you a guarantee. You should be worried about He Ran. You're cooperating with me because of my You family's position and your goals.
He Ran is an obstacle. If you're worried about her, I'll give you a guarantee that you won't be worried about. What do you think, Bai Qian? "
Lu Yin stared at You Fang blankly. "What do you mean?"
You Fang clasped his hands behind his back and looked very confident. "He Ran's greatest enemy is Bai Qian. Although it seems like Bai Qian has been eliminated, things will be different if my You family fully supports her. With Bai Qian as a guarantee, can you trust her?"
This was the mutual trust that the You Fang had found, as well as a target that would restrict each other.
He Ran would never cooperate with someone who supported Bai Qian, let alone the You family.
You Fang also needed to confirm that Lu Yin was sincere about cooperating with them, so Lu Yin had to support Bai Qian as well. This would put both sides at ease.
Lu Yin was speechless. He suspected that this was all part of Bai Qian's plan, but she wasn't that capable. No matter how smart she was, she wouldn't be able to influence the You family. In other words, this was a coincidence that allowed him and the You family to openly support Bai Qian in dealing with He Ran.
Back on Earth, Lu Yin had talked to Bai Qian about the situation in Hyperspace. Bai Qian had said that as long as she had the support of the You family, she would not have to fear He Ran. Now, it had actually come true, and He Ran had even helped her achieve it. The affairs of the world were unpredictable, and even Lu Yin wanted to sigh.
"I have to support Bai Qian?"
Lu Yin hesitated.
You Fang nodded. "You're worried about us, and we're worried about you. If He Ran has received guidance from an expert, then everything from the moment you approached the You family has been part of the plan. Our You family will be doomed, so we have to support Bai Qian. Only Bai Qian can dispel our doubts.
"You have to publicly support Bai Qian, and the You family will do the same. We'll be even more thorough. The moment we support Bai Qian, at least a third of our people will follow suit."
Lu Yin remained silent.
You Lele mocked, "You're a grown man, yet you're so wishy-washy. He Ran has already made a move on you, so what are you afraid of?
Don't you want to save your own woman?
Or do you think that He Ran can help you? She's been lying to you since the beginning. Once Zijing's research succeeds, she won't be able to be with you unless you join the Hyperspace Continuum. "
You Fang said, "He Ran made a move on you behind your back and lied to you on the surface. What are you worried about?"
Lu Yin looked at the two. "Publicly supporting Bai Qian is the right thing to do?"
You Fang smiled. "So you're worried about Bai Qian. Don't worry, the You family has been keeping an eye on her. She has no background or connections, and He Ran has already dealt with most of the people who supported her. There's definitely something wrong with Tu Ke. She has no power in the Hyperspace Continuum, and she's not an expert either. She's an excellent puppet, and it's better than He Ran winning."
You Lele continued, "I've interacted with Bai Qian before. She's too arrogant, and no one can help her. We're not really supporting her, we're just letting her replace He Ran. It's better than a woman like He Ran attacking us behind our backs. Bai Qian isn't worried about that at all."
Lu Yin nodded. "That's true."
"But Bai Qian has a problem to deal with," You Fang said. "Have you heard of the Perfect Young Master?"
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "The one from the Reincarnation Spacetime?
I've heard of him. Back in the Reincarnation Dao Academy, someone compared me to him. "
You Fang's expression turned serious. "This Young Master has taken a liking to Bai Qian, which means that he's working with He Ran. We have to be wary of this person."
Lu Yin suddenly had an idea. Tu Ke's family, Bai Qian, He Shu, Shao Qingfeng, and this Perfect Young Master. Could there be a connection between them?
"Although this person doesn't belong to the Hyperspace Continuum, Ying has a lot of influence.
He Ran's younger brother, He Shu, often follows him around. There's also that Shao Qingfeng and a large group of powerful juniors from the Six Paths Association. This person has clearly taken a liking to Bai Qian, which is troublesome. "
Lu Yin was puzzled. "He Ran and Bai Qian are both favored by the Hyperspace Continuum's ruler. Doesn't that Young Master care about them?"
You Fang shook his head. "Perhaps that person is already planning to use Bai Qian to get something from that Young Master. That Young Master is a disciple of a Grand Empyrean and will become one of the Three Sovereigns in the future. Sacrificing Bai Qian would be easy in order to get closer to him."
"Then if we support Bai Qian, wouldn't that mean that we're going against that Young Master?
Is the You family willing to make such a losing deal? "
Lu Yin didn't understand.
You Fang explained, "In any case, that Young Master is working with He Ran and doesn't support Bai Qian. He can't get closer to the You family, so we're not on the same side. So, we need to stabilize the Hyperspace Continuum. Even if that person becomes one of the Three Sovereigns, what can he do to the Hyperspace Continuum? The current Three Sovereigns and Nine Sages can't control the entire Six Paths Association."
Lu Yin understood; the You family had seen through the situation too clearly. He Ran was unlucky to have met such a smart family.
"If I stay by He Ran's side and maintain a cooperative relationship with her, it should be more beneficial for you."
You Fang and You Lele laughed at the same time. "Xuan Qi, don't tell me that you still haven't seen through the You family?"
"You want to curry favor with both sides without offending either? That's not realistic."
Lu Yin said, "I mean, I have other ways to make you trust me."
"Oh, let's hear it." You Fang was interested. "Let me tell you first: you don't understand the Hyperspace Continuum as well as I do. Don't try any tricks, they're useless."
Lu Yin looked at the location where the entire Hyperspace Continuum was being monitored. He walked over and stood in the center, looking for something.
You Fang and You Lele were in no hurry and watched him search.
Not long after, Lu Yin's eyes lit up. "Found it!" He zoomed in on a certain location and pointed out, "Do you know anything about this place?"
You Fang and You Lele stared at the direction Lu Yin was pointing at. "It's an abandoned mine that was abandoned after an accident. It's surrounded by liquefied minerals and poisonous liquid. It's a forbidden area."
"What else?"
Lu Yin asked.
You Fang looked at You Lele, but the latter shook his head. "Nothing special. There are too many forbidden areas like this in the Hyperspace Continuum."
Lu Yin continued, "What if I told you that this is the place where Zijing used to work with the Energy Research Group? What would you think?"
You Fang and You Lele were shocked. "Here?"
The Energy Research Group seemed ordinary, but it was actually a mysterious group. Before Zijing had joined, the group had been open and transparent. After Zijing had joined, the group had turned secretive. However, Zijing had escaped halfway through, which had led to the disbanding of the research group. In reality, the Energy Research Group had never been disbanded, but it had been purposely disbanded to divert the attention of others so that they could return once they found Zijing.
Several years ago, Zijing had returned, and the Energy Research Group had worked seamlessly to make up for the losses caused by Zijing's escape. Now, they had caught the attention of the Hyperspace Continuum Dominator and had been brought to a parallel universe with a different flow of time.
During this time, even You Fang couldn't find the Energy Research Group's location, let alone their research direction.
You Fang had been searching for the Energy Research Group's location for the past two years, but it was hidden too well. He Ran couldn't hide it, but the Hyperspace Continuum Dominator could.
