Ye Jue's expression darkened. "Mr. Lu, I might not be your match, but if I go all out, you won't have it easy either."
"My symbiotic corpse has nothing to do with them. I created the technique, and I found the corpse. Why bother with these two kids?"
Ye Sheng's face paled.
Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but grab Ye Jue's arm. "Master, I won't go. I want to follow you."
Ye Jue's gaze was cold as he stared at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin stared at him for a while before asking, "Was Progenitor Chen's corpse really given to you?"
"If I lie, I'll die a horrible death." Ye Jue swore.
Lu Yin shook his head. "You can even live in symbiosis with corpses, so your oath can't be trusted. But if what you said is true, then I won't do anything to you if you come with me. At the very least, I won't do anything to you before you meet Progenitor Chen.
"Eternals, humans, astral beasts … There are too many dangers in the universe. It's better for them to follow you, unless you're lying."
Ye Jue lowered his voice. "I'm telling the truth. I don't know who gave me this gift, but when I opened my eyes, this corpse was right in front of me. I can help you find that person."
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Alright, then come with me. As long as you're telling the truth and contribute to the battle against the Eternals, you might have a place in the Above Heaven Sect."
Symbiotic corpses were indeed unacceptable, but as long as the corpses weren't killed by Ye Jue and the others, Ye Jue would stick to his bottom line. At most, he would be accused of being immoral and stealing the corpses, but he wasn't guilty.
Besides, Ye Jue wouldn't join the Above Heaven Sect. Lu Yin had his own plans.
Ye Jue was helpless. He couldn't escape or win, so he had no choice but to listen to Lu Yin.
After returning to the Above Heaven Sect, Lu Yin asked Ye Jue why he cared so much about his two little disciples. There was a deep relationship between master and disciple in the world of cultivation, but Ye Jue shouldn't have such feelings.
What he'd experienced couldn't have been good.
Ye Jue's answer was simple. Ye Sheng was a name given by Ye Cang. It meant that he was reborn in his place.
The darkness he had experienced made him a synonym for filth. He hoped that Ye Sheng could walk a different path, but if he wanted to walk his own path, he had to have strength. Therefore, Ye Sheng also cultivated the Corpse Symbiosis Technique, but for Ye Sheng who had seen this technique since he was young, it did not have any psychological impact.
To Ye Sheng, this was a kind of cultivation method that could give him the confidence to walk the path he wanted to walk.
As for Ye Xiaoxiao, the name was also given by him. He only had one purpose: to smile more. Ye Rou said that he had never smiled since he was born. The reason why he adopted Ye Xiaoxiao was that she looked cute when she smiled.
He wanted to protect that smile, so he didn't even let Ye Xiaoxiao touch the symbiotic technique.
Ye Sheng was another Ye Chen, a free Ye Chen. For this, he would not hesitate to pay any price.
Ye Xiaoxiao was Ye Jue's most beautiful dream and also his wish.
Lu Yin deeply felt Ye Rou's sorrow.
Without experiencing the evils of the world, how could one yearn for the beauty of the world?
Ye Rou and the others were arranged to stay in the Above the Sky Sect, and Lu Yin had his own ways to prevent them from leaving. All he had to do was find a natural object that he could use his compass to locate.
Ye Rou did not understand how Lu Yin had found them, but it was unlikely that they would leave without permission.
The Above the Sky Sect's strength also made him particularly wary.
Even the Eternals seemed to be suppressed.
After dealing with Ye Rou, Lu Yin's next target was the Abandoned Path.
The Abandoned Path had not participated in the battle between the nine star civilizations and the Endings. His Stargate was still in Lu Yin's cosmic ring, and it had not been destroyed by the Eternals.
Lu Yin went to the cave and used the method the Abandoned Path had given him to communicate.
This time, it was Hongyan Mavis who had accompanied Lu Yin.
Hongyan Mavis had already returned to the Mavis Clan, causing the entire Mavis Clan to be shocked. Soon after, they were overjoyed. The return of the Mavis Clan's ancestor shook the entire Fifth Mainland, which then spread to the Six Direction Society, causing countless people to be dumbfounded.
The legends of the Three Realms and Six Daos had spread to many people in the Six Direction Society.
To those in the Origin Space, the Three Realms and Six Daos were legends, not to mention the Six Direction Society.
Now that the Lu family's ancestor and Hongyan Mavis had appeared, the Origin Space's strength was deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts.
Hongyan Mavis looked at the cave. "Why did you bring me here?"
"To meet someone. Later, I'd like to ask Senior to help me suppress that person's temper," Lu Yin said.
Hongyan Mavis looked at Lu Yin with a strange expression.
Lu Yin was puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Hongyan Mavis smiled: "It's nothing, I just heard Feather Mavis and Lulu Mavis talk about you a lot."
Lu Yin blinked. "Good things? Bad things?"
"Good things."
"I don't believe you."
"They're good things, Little Seven. Would anyone in the Fifth Mainland say bad things about you?"
Lu Yin rolled his eyes. "Come on, they're definitely bad things. Otherwise, you wouldn't look at me like that."
Hongyan Mavis laughed. "You're really similar to Fertile Earth. He was the most mischievous one among us when he was young, and he had the most ideas. Usually, he would come up with ideas, Da Qiang would carry them out, and Wu Da would take the blame. You, on the other hand, let others come up with ideas, carry them out yourself, and then pretend to be someone else's scapegoat."
Lu Yin was speechless. "Since when did I pretend to be someone else's scapegoat?"
"Not only that, but you also don't let others talk bad about you. Instead, you spread your good words everywhere. Little Seven, you're not kind."
Lu Yin pursed his lips. "Senior, I'm very kind."
Hongyan Mavis did not say anything else. Her gaze was fixed on the white liquid in the distance. She walked over and looked down.
Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat. "You know this?"
Hongyan Mavis frowned. "I've seen it before. It looks familiar, but I can't remember where."
"Think about it more, this thing might be useful." Lu Yin looked forward to it.
He liked external objects, and he had nothing else on him right now except for a lot of money.
Hongyan Mavis had stayed in the mirage for too long, and there were many things that she could not remember.
After some time, the Abandoned Path returned to the cave and stood some distance away from Lu Yin.
"Why are you still looking for me?" The Abandoned Path's expression was cold, just like Ye Jue's.
He was also a miserable person. His civilization had been destroyed by the Eternals, and his goal for the rest of his life was to annoy the Eternals. Thus, he had specifically targeted the Eternal Kingdom and caused the Fifth Calamity Region to suffer greatly.
Previously, when Lu Yin and the others had surrounded the Ruined Kingdom, the Eternals had declared war on the humans. The Abandoned Path had also taken the opportunity to attack the Eternal Kingdom in this region of space, destroying many of them and venting his anger.
He had a good impression of Lu Yin, but that was all.
Lu Yin said, "Let's cut to the chase. I hope that you can work with us to deal with the Eternals."
The Abandoned Path glanced at Hongyan Mavis, who was not far from Lu Yin, and frowned.
This person made him feel pressured, a feeling that he had only experienced from the Arrow God.
Pressure meant that there was a threat.
The Abandoned Path's expression turned cold. "I've already helped you once. This is what we've discussed before."
Previously, the Eternals had believed that Lu Yin was dead. Not only had they tried to sow discord between the Primordial Space and the Six-Direction Society, but they had also tried to destroy the Above Heaven Sect. At that time, Lu Yin had asked the Abandoned Path to help him stop Ji Luo.
Lu Yin said, "That's why I'm talking about working together. Don't you want to avenge your civilization?
You can't defeat the Arrow God alone, much less the Eternals. "
"There's no need to say more. I've already helped you once, and that's only because of Mister Mu." The Abandoned Path was alert and slowly retreated. It was obvious that he was about to leave.
Lu Yin looked at him. "Could it be that you owe Mister Mu a favor, and that's why you can only help him once?"
The Abandoned Path did not say anything else and was about to step onto the teleportation device.
Lu Yin sighed, as he was about to make things difficult for him again.
He had a legitimate reason to act against Ye Jue.
However, it was not good to act against the Abandoned Path, especially since the Abandoned Path had helped him once. Still, there were times when one had to resort to unscrupulous means. How much could words accomplish?
Just as the Abandoned Path was about to step onto the teleportation device, green grass covered the entire cave and covered the device.
The Abandoned Path's expression changed, and he stared at Lu Yin. "What's the meaning of this?"
Hongyan Mavis walked out. "Brat, you're very arrogant. You didn't even greet me. How rude."
The Abandoned Path looked at Hongyan Mavis. "I don't want to be your enemy, so please don't cause trouble for me."
Hongyan Mavis moved her arms. "In terms of age, it's not too much for you to call me Ancestor. You're too rude."
Lu Yin raised a brow. Within the mirage, Hongyan Mavis had been quiet and elegant, but after regaining her strength, Hongyan Mavis had allowed Lu Yin to see her Levitating Mavis and Lulu's side, which was filled with violence.
This was the true Hongyan Mavis.
In the Sixth Disaster Domain, she had almost shattered the giant with a single punch. That was the true Hongyan Mavis, one of the Six Daos of the Three Realms.
The Abandoned Path's figure suddenly disappeared.
Lu Yin used the reverse step to parallel time, but he felt a chill run down his spine as he sped up again.
He had fought with the Abandoned Path before, and this person was always one step faster than Lu Yin even when Lu Yin was in parallel time. This was a Sequence Law that was similar to Ye Rou's, and Lu Yin could not understand it.
The Abandoned Path raised his dagger and was about to place it against Lu Yin's neck when he suddenly felt his scalp go numb. He used the Sequence Law again, and a hand fell from where he had been standing. It was Hongyan Mavis.
Hongyan Mavis's hand missed, and she clenched her fist, causing ripples to spread throughout the cave.
The Abandoned Path's dagger stabbed towards Hongyan Mavis's head. He believed that he was one step faster, and this woman was a greater threat.
But suddenly, he found it difficult to move forward. The Sequence Law was actually shaken away by the ripples. He could not believe it; where did such a powerful force come from?
It was so solid that it could push aside the Sequence Law, and he could not even sense how terrifying this force was.
Hongyan Mavis turned around and looked at the Abandoned Path. "Brat, are you trying to use your dagger on me?"
She then exerted force with her fingertips, causing a white wave to appear within the ripples and shoot towards the Abandoned Path like an arrow.
The Abandoned Path's forehead was about to explode. He could not take this attack head-on, and he definitely could not.
He immediately retreated and disappeared once again. He then waved his hand and sprinkled drops of milky white liquid onto the ground. These drops transformed into white planes, and the Abandoned Path did something that caused all of the white planes to transform into daggers that stabbed towards Hongyan Mavis and Lu Yin.
